There doesn't have to be a clear bright line, even when the law seems clear the reality is many times fuzzy. This is why we have judges, to make a ruling in the spirit of the law. In this case, if the likeliness is close enough then it

I think it's great that Keli is designed with IDE support in mind. However I believe that this is only half of the reason why FP still doesn't really break through in the corporate world. The other reason is that many FP users are

First of all you seem to assume that everybody here is American. Let me tell you, they are not. Second, if the USA killed a million muslims, does that make it right that China does it as well? I don't think it does.

Cancel culture means boycotting public figures or companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive. You are talking only about tweets but those have little to do with it. Boycotting China is definitely

This is a gem. I have been looking for this kind of clear and to the point explanations of common Haskell patterns for a long time.

Sure, but the FED money is going somewhere in the USA. Either to banks or other companies. Those companies are located in states. So eventually the FED money flows to those 50 states. But it apparently doesn't reach local companies and

I wonder what is wrong with the USA's economy, because the FED is printing dollars like never before to provide liquidity to the economy and still cities have to fall back to initiatives like this one to keep their local economies goin

I always have taken a shower every day and was every time using shampoo to wash my hair. The result was that my hair was very dry and difficult to handle. I tried to fix this by using conditioners but this worked only a little bit. Then a h

I tried this too but my hair became too greasy after 1 or 2 weeks. Now I'm using shampoo only once a week and that works great.

It can simply be that civilisations, no matter how intelligent, do not send out any signals that are strong enough for us to detect from our distance.

No. Tech debt, like money debt, can be taken on in purpose to be able to take advantage of a short term business opportunity.

I like algorithms and coding competitions, but in my 22 year career in software engineering I have never had to code any algorithm myself, except in numerous job interviews. As for data structures, the only one I occasionally need to code m

Exactly this. The FED and the ECB have been printing money like crazy for years, however this money did not go to the man in the street but to banks and indirectly to other financial institutions. And those don't spend their money in t

"A strong union presence is significantly more effective than a minimum wage." Why? To me it seems that governments have far stronger means to enforce a minimum wage than unions have.

This argument, that it avoids discussions, does make sense but only if you're in a team where discussions tend to be a waste of time. When my colleagues are knowledgable and open minded I would embrace every opportunity to have a good

Every failed IT project that I have worked on in the last 20 years (except those where the cause was non-technical such as bad planning/ bad requirements), failed because it used too many layers of abstraction.

The inhabitants of Rapa Nui had an agricultural system with ingenious ways to fertilise its soil. It is currently still used here and there. The trees were mostly cut to make way to provide more land for agriculture, so that the population

Guava was really popular 10 years ago, after that other libraries have caught up, not to mention Java itself. And IntelliJ was once indeed the standard but is slowly becoming the new Eclipse because it's so bloated. I recently tried VS

It's the curse of the media. Infection rate might be only a few percent, death rate no more than a percent of that, but if you follow the media you get the feeling that we are in the middle of a new bubonic plague. This is the same phe

There is a LSP plugin for IntelliJ but it is not very stable. But that was not my point: maybe I'm spoiled because I'm coming from the JVM universe, but I don't agree that ghcide installation is easy. For me, "easy"

Even if you have separated concerns by having method 1 return Monad transformer A and method 2 return transformer B, you will still have to combine the results of both your methods at some point.

I agree that the Dutch government wasn't the very worst in the world with handling this. But it was definitely not in the better half. By metric of deaths/ population, we are now nr 9 in the world (counting high to low). And above
