In addition to the other reply, if you want to bring up industry, Russian achievement on that front is actually even higher. Most of the industry was in the European part and soon unavailable because it was overrun by Germans. Russians move

Not dying would probably mean even more concentration of wealth and power. I agree with the OP. If we had some idyllic society I might be more tempted to disagree, but as it is, those with power are most likely to be able to afford the nece

No. The difference is that at this point accepting a crypto currency is entirely optional for them, while using regular currency of their country is not or they could not be a company (since they have to pay taxes in that currency).

The discussion is about when you attach handlers, and failure handlers specifically. When someone uses async/await style and try/catch but also adds in handling (passing) actually promises, without await-ing them.

Remember that the context of this discussion is achieving parallelism by not waiting - instead, you create promises in parallel, pass them on, and attach handlers at some later point, e.g. after collecting them in a Promise.all(). As I sa

Unless you stop executing code inside the try{} block by using "await" the try/catch is over when the error is thrown asynchronously later on. Leading to an asynchronous promise rejection. Yes your code is located inside a tr

Goods don't have a mind and thoughts so psychology does not apply. The good you price-compare won't become unhappy and later leave as OP described. I have no opinion on if the negotiating tactic is good or not, only that the compa
