What changeover is there to be had if using trailing commas is not mandatory?

It's kind of a joke to conflate either of those presidents with social democrats.

I don't know, I think Kotlin strikes a pretty good balance as far as languages go. What's your preference over it?
64.
by occz 2y ago
The real improvement is to lift nullability up to the type system. That way, every type acts as an optional by default, and the computer can infer when a nullable type has been null-checked. This is what Kotlin does - it's truly freein

You can certainly do that if you want, but lying on the sofa is quite viable as well. The point I wanted to make was that if you go hard every day, that will be actively harmful to your fitness goals.

5/3/1 has a bunch of variations that take about that amount of time and still gives you consistent progress, as well.

Exercise does however explicitly require some zero days, a lesson I've learned the hard way. You need time to recover, and that involves doing nothing.

That's a different topic than whether driving is absolutely safe or not. It's been proven that it's very much not. It's of course easy to be abstract and talk about the value of lives versus your favourite mode of transp

This might seem like a good idea at first, but it would essentially result in complete gridlock as the roads fill up with circulating self-driving cars. No, there's definitely a better solution for this - using self-driving trains to m

There were a grand total of 50 homicides on U.S transit in 2022. The number of deaths from drivers was 42k that year. This is not a serious concern, and it's telling of the mindset of drivers in the U.S.

42k people in the U.S die per year from being hit by drivers, and far more get injured. There's no credibility to your statement, whatsoever.

This comment is telling about your values when it comes to both cars and buses. Consider some introspection.

Nope, it's been great for poorer people who take transit at higher rates than others, and congestion pricing funds useful transit expansions for them.

I agree that semis are subsidized to a ridiculous degree, but I don't agree that we necessarily _need_ them. What we need is a way to transport things, and in a non-subsidized world, we'd probably come up with a different way whic

You can already extrapolate from the results from other cities who have implemented the policy, where it has been wildly successful at reducing congestion.

In practice, number 1 really never happens in Sweden. Sure, there are people looking for bottles in public trashcans, but they are not exclusively homeless nor do they leave a mess behind after collecting any potential recyclables from the

Note that our method of "recycling" plastic is burning them for energy in the form of district heating/electricity. Still, beats landfilling.

I'm enjoying my iGS630 as well! I've been considering getting the Magene power meter cranks as well but was a bit hesitant on account of the relatively larger price tag, and it being the first item I would be buying that is subjec

I'm not sure I'd consider Copilot the best tool in the space, but I agree otherwise.

You're off the mark here - I'm in great shape and exercise more or less every day. At the same time, I keep up with the latest science and understand the limitations of exercise as a means of sustainable weight loss for the genera

by occz 2y ago
You're treating the human body as a far simpler system that it actually is, leading to drawing unsupported conclusions about the efficacy of exercise as an intervention for fat loss.

Yep, I've noticed this as well.

The desktop UI actually worked pretty much fine on mobile, to be honest. I ran it for a while using the porting methods available from the desktop binaries to an APK. The mobile UI basically just changes the interactions from a small button

If the car industry is that important to the west, then we can nationalize it and strip the current ownership/management of everything they gained from the venture, since they've clearly squandered their lead in the space in favou

That source makes claims that its data does not actually back up - that road infrastructure is actually paid for by user fees, while only actually providing data that highway infrastructure is paid for by user fees. Highways are clearly n

Any video streaming application worth its salt will stop downloading the video track if the user backgrounds the application, turns off the screen or otherwise makes the video surface not visible, so there's no bandwidth wasted in that
