Yup, was just trying to give an example that utilized primitives to make it easier.

"Optimal" in this context means it never repeats the work of beta reduction when it doesn't have to. Ie, evaluating `(\x -> x + x) (2 * 2)` only evaluates `2 * 2` once.

Any evaluation of a functional-based language is going to use this. Here's a simple example: Let's say I have a function `add1` `add1 = \x -> x + 1` (A function that takes a value `x` and then computes `x + 1` And then I write

Right, because Rust provides a real macro system for metaprogramming.

by opnitro 5y ago
Java & Haskell both have turing complete type systems as well. I'm not a particular fan of C++'s type system, doesn't mean have metaprogramming features is bad.

by opnitro 5y ago
A type system being turing complete really isn't a problem. You bound the recursion depth in practice, and the chance of a real world programming hitting that limit is minuscule. Lot's of other languages have turing complete type

ie: there would be no "application process" as everyone would have it.

Then if they are not at fault, why should they have their right to vote revoked?

Why do you assume that all homeless people are fault for "not functioning minimally in society"

Hey I have my suspicions but wanted to ask first :)

You provide 3 sources, yet don't cite a source for the claim that ~10k have died from the vaccine. Could we have a citation for that one?

Sure, the name doesn't matter. The type does though. `Functor f => a -> b -> f a -> f b` And it most type systems the law can't easily be captured in the type system.

To be honest with you, you're right in that you usually get that one without trying. Most of the things we think of as mappable obey the identity rules.
44.
by opnitro 5y ago
Yes that seems right, sorry.
45.
by opnitro 5y ago
A Mappable would be anything that has a `map` function. A `Functor` is a something that has a `map` function _AND_ obeys the rule that calling `map` with the identity function produces the same result. ie: say I have some value `f` that is

That's not quite true. Many of these proof assistants support some level of automation and proof search. I haven't used Lean specifically, but it's quite common in Coq for projects to write proof search techniques specific to

Yeah, the entire premise of this kind of company is asking strangers to give you arbitrary code and then running it. I imagine there ares some important design decisions there that are not trivial to replicate. At it seems the author made _

I don't think this is true. As the author notes, he doesn't have any ability to scale due to simplistic design decisions he made. As the author notes, the hard part of this business is not "write a webserver that takes a prog

I'd suggest reading Ellsberg's book (The Doomsday Machine) detailing the risks imposed by MAD.

Fair amount of times I can think of, such as: * Installing a new OS, some installers are cmdline only * Server console * If you've broken your GUI installation and need to fall back to the shell I will say though: I don't know if

Copyrights _are_ property. They can be sold on the market and are enforced by the state. You can _own_ a copyright.

Again, the patent system is mentioned in the constitution. It's not "postmodern". You may not agree with the system (I certainly don't), but "postmodern" is the not correct movement to associate it with

by opnitro 5y ago
I'm not sure postmodern is the right word to use here? It's pretty standard liberalism in terms of creating/enforcing property rights over things.

This isn't strictly true. It's only true if the entity creating the website needs to extract a monetary profit. Plenty of people make websites (and other products) and happily share them in a community. The benefit they draw is i

And again, even if we restrict ourselves to honest parties, hardware failures happen. Auditing the code tells you nothing about their infrastructure.

The primary difference being the organization being tested explicitly sets up a bug bounty with terms, as opposed to this.
