Yes, logging with email alerts means that when a catastrophic error is encountered you'd know about it, instead of it being hidden for months.

My first job was cleaning up the mess that was caused by hard coded yahoo finance urls in spreadsheets. One of them died, no one noticed and it cost the company millions of dollars in bad trades over three months.

Because healthy food is not subsidized. A raw Big Mac costs on the order of a dollar. If you tried to just match that with raw healthy ingredients you'd be looking at five to ten times that. And that's before we get into the labor

Would showing added lead in baby formula help? Kind of shocked how in the US an issue that is obviously a health issue is treated as a personal failing. If you want sugar in your food you're free to add some after the fact, or buy it f

Can be is not is. One can rewrite that in a functional not implace style. Less so for a language with a c like call stack. Which is why the op wrote it like that instead of using tail call recursion.

This isn't a Lisp, this is a paren based serialization of the syntax tree of an Algol like language. Even the readme says as much: The syntax of wax is inspired by WebAssembly Text Format (wat), hence the name. Though it uses S-express

I think that there are way more than 500 Nazis in the US. I also think that they have as much power as witches did in Salem, for largely the same reasons. That said don't expect the moral panic to calm down any time soon. It's odd

I find the people who think there is such a thing as an American Nazi movement are the ones whose idea of what a Nazi is comes from Marvel comics' Hydra. A simple question: have you actually read Mein Kampf or the Communist Manifesto?

You can talk to a Greek and an Italian and get the same. It was interesting seeing flowers in the spot where Caesar was killed on the Ides of March some 2000 years later.
