I can elaborate on that, see depression is caused by you in the end, not by circumstances (which may steer you in the direction, but finally you "do" it). See what they do in yoga is they know how to change chemistry in your body

I found a way out of depression into bottomless joy by one of the modern mystics and his kriya yoga practices. So from my perspective whatever AI predicts is anyway based on modern science which does not look deep into life processes.

I don't see how it's the same. In Zoom's case organization was in US and call organization was in US and company works by US laws. Why would they censor these accounts? Google on the other hand had to do it to operate in Chin

Erm, Lisps were used back in time for many production systems when C++ wasn't even started. Looks like your definition of esoteric and production is based on couple of years of cheap CS courses.

Erm, yes this is why you mock it. I still fail to see the problem, here is an example how you mock a function: https://hexdocs.pm/mock/Mock.html Inside `with_mock` code will only access mocked function. In case you wan

Erm, you can setup dialyzer to be as strict as possible. This might not catch all the errors because of the nature of messages, but this is a pretty small part of a system usually and can be covered by tests. >All in all it's not a

I have some experience with Elixir, you can think of it as nicer Erlang. Kotlin is interesting because it gives you access to Java (Android & Desktop) world and is closer to functional languages while still being widely usable.

I would say it's the opposite, visual programs have more ways for you to zoom in & out and trace what is happening. From what I saw in Mendix it makes code navigation and understanding way easier.

Except programming isn't blind typing and typing is less than 40% of programmer's work I would say.

I made a few hobby projects in different Lisps, but in the end for my field (REST backends) I would chose Erlang and today I also started looking towards Kotlin. Lisp's macros while being powerful are still creating a lot of trouble in
