Ok but what I’m really interested in is integration tests that depend on time. Waiting for a set amount of time (i.e. literally calling to wait(5) in the test code) is slow and, even worse than that, flaky. If the test server is busy it mig

Go wrestle with a machine if you’re into that. “The produce” is not what is in short supply.

I see them as a restricted (so, less powerful than a goto). That’s why they are better . Perhaps that’s what you meant when you said “stronger”

That's a very neat idea, installed. Consider adding some links on the Readme itself about how to install, the releases tab is easy to miss. It would also be great if it was available as a homebrew cask.

Well we do know how much we are going to get charged by private hospitals, at least.

That would make sense if we were talking about something that changes dramatically over time; like a human heart for transplants. Or a nuclear fission core without its carbon bars. But trains don’t change significantly in a 10-day period. I

Of course it was awful. Probably the images of Tartarus and Hades come from how these people were made to live their lives.

I know people who programmed an app for controlling this kind of thing- licensing agreements for video content on streaming platforms. The “period” entity was a huge monster with many fields. Resolution amongst them. > why they would not

Most western European cities that I have visited are safe and they have big immigration. I think low immigration might be a factor in some cases, but the big thing is having a working social security net that gives people opportunities wh

I recommend you watch John Oliver’s episode linked above. It is just as bad.

I am sorry you had such a horrible experience at school. I’m not denying that what you say can happen, but for contrast, my 7yo son enjoys his school greatly and even misses it during holidays.

The US still has laws protecting child labor in agriculture. https://www.npr.org/2023/06/12/1181472559/child-labor-farms-... (And slavery in prison. But one problem at a time)

I expected to be very defensive when reading the title but I actually fully agree with the article, thank you for sharing

Wow, fun one, thanks!

I sure hope they don't treat their citizens like they treat their cattle.

This amount of organization feels alien to me. The title of the article might as well have been “how to fly by moving your ears really fast”

Yep. Web development provides a more pleasant, if perhaps less exciting, way of life than gamedev. And you can still do gamedev in your spare time (you have spare time!)

Once life gets intelligent enough we may be able to detect it by other means. For example, they would likely use electromagnetic waves to communicate, just like we do[1]. That's based on the physics on the constraints set by our physic

Well I did not know that. Perhaps that's why it works so seamlessly. Well one of the upsides then is that switching to Firefox in IOS is very painless then.

Firefox works very well on iPhone, by the way. It’s my daily browser there.
