There's no requirement that type annotations be accurate. With hidden classes and such it likely wouldn't matter much. You'd need them anyway for full dynamism

You would want any good soap to be a degreaser. That's the whole point.

This was known in March-April, when he rammed through a bill to give himself emergency powers and one that indemnified nursing home operators -- his donor base.

You could use savepoints instead to wrap the transaction.

The "trick" is the default install bit. OpenBSD's default install is very limited. Since there's basically nothing enabled, the surface is limited. They still pop up every few years or so.

I tried to use an iPad air since the processor is more than adequate for me. The software experience is trash. Great for single tasking but just awful for doing two things or more. Facetime inexplicably behaves differently when minimized fo

It'll be a huge victory for lattice-QCD if the computational result is true.

Everyone assumed the correct limit was just Newton's gravity, but it's abundantly clear that can't be right what with gravitational waves existing. I think the author's, and other's points over the last decade or so

Looks like 3-clause BSD to me.

Bingo. Nuclear is just ridiculously expensive compared to Wind/Solar. You could overbuild 2-3x and maybe even add batteries. Big honking power plants of all flavors are just not economically viable. The SMR thing might work, but it&#x2

Not the zero matrix, or any non-invertible matrix over a field with 0 characteristic. The Jordan-Chevalley decomposition makes the difference precise -- the nilpotent part (off diagonal 1's in the jordan normal form)

`encoding/xml` has had broken handling of namespaces for a long time. It’s possible to hack it on but the only reasonable choice is to use a libxml2 binding which also gets you canonicalization, another can of worms. Unsurprised it can

The Austrian school is pretty famous for rejecting empiricism and basically saying it's their way or nothing; it may come to valid conclusions but because they reject any evidentiary evaluation of their assumptions its unfalsifiable (a

It’s a very serious response. XML is a defective technology that has no place in the modern web. Perhaps the only successful bit is SVG, for lack of a better alternative. MathML is a failure — katex and mathjax do a fundamentally better job

You can make your point without the theatrics. This is a philosophical distinction, not an objective fact. I do not consider sqlString to be impure. It’s a perfectly valid string. I consider `executeQuery sqlString :: IO Result` to be an in

It doesn't. That's the whole point of the io monad. Outside of the io monad you cannot (modulo some exceptions) indicate io.

The io monad is fully pure. The interpretation of the io monad? That's another story. Once you realize that mutation itself is a side effect then why not use the single most powerful idiom we have for abstraction over side effects? (Mo

It really is. High level programming languages were the original "no-code" compared to assembly of course. That said: no-code is not "no engineering"

This is about 35% denser than intel 10nm, and not a theoretical number.

Every single time Facebook does a redesign they get at least one of these posts. I think it's tradition at this point.

Well good? The federal government has no obligation to bail out the states That's a political decision and the gop has decided to let the states that need bailouts diy it. I don't think it's wise, but it sure is within gop po

Nah, the spending power of the federal government, and the tax collection of the federal government are not linked. So long as the fed can print money the federal government can spend. It cares not about the states or how much income tax fl

I love low-code/no-code solutions because they inevitbly devolve into something I can charge $$$$ to clean up The problem with software engineering is not the code.

I'm unconvinced that treating spacetime as a quantum field is the right approach -- just a gut feeling -- given gravity "feels" so much different than the quantum theories and general relativity is just so beautifully geometr

No I mean centrifugal. It's a fictitious force, an artifact of choosing a rotating non inertial coordinate frame. Gravity arises similarly, by being in a non inertial frame induced by mass energy https://en.m.wikipedia.org&#

Gravity is a force in the same way the centrifugal force is a force An artifact of rotating coordinate frames in one, the curvature of spacetime in the other
