This is such a misunderstanding of the current situation. The demands were varied, but common ask was _not_ just a reduction in policing paired with a ballooning police budget. Ironically, the "defund" movement ended up causing an

You're confusing the fact that the existence of LGBTQ people is being acknowledged finally in the mainstream with some sort of shift of what the 'dominant culture' is. All of these things you listed merely acknowledge that no

What you find "clever" or not is really a function of what you are most used to seeing. There are likely many folks who use combinators frequently who find them easier to read, myself included. The first example, to me, is the wor

I disagree but it's more nuanced. The issue with chatgpt is the same issue that lies at the heart of most problems in modern day society: the consolidation of power and wealth in private hands. These tools are being used in the name of

Yup. Although, to be pedantic, the offer/ack is often unicast. Here's the relevant bit from the RFC. > If the 'giaddr' field in a DHCP message from a client is non-zero, the server sends any return messages to the

Money has existed for a long time, but only recently has the pursuit of profit become preeminent. I'm of the opinion that democracy and universal suffrage creates as equal a system as we can hope for, my issue isn't with money or

I sympathize with the sentiment, although I don't blame the issues on a dearth of altruism. If you grew up in the 1400's could you expect widespread equality during feudalism? It doesn't matter how magnanimous a king was, ine

I thought this question was a joke based on the title. Our economic system itself creates inequality between nations. It's in the best interest of wealthy countries to keep developing countries poor so we can continue extractive proces

If anything it's a good case of why "trickle down" economic policies don't work very well. Many businesses who got the loans still fired employees, the cost of each job saved was high.

Is it your contention that businesses only started being motivated by profit after this law got passed?

The linked repo is a protocol lib for dhcp written in Rust, internally we are working on a dhcp server but it is not open sourced at the moment. It is a ground up rewrite of dhcp, it does not share code with ISC DHCP.

Not OP, but if you have gripes about type safety, you're likely to enjoy rust. The compiler will absolutely let you know if you are not handling optional or result types. As a bonus, they are built using regular generic and enum constr
