And that's exactly what's different in D, where the audience for meta-programming is "everyone". It's not just about more power, but how accessible this power is. To think you need to suffer to have this power is no

For all the prophets out there: no one stops you to build a business for that "invisible demand". Let's see how you can predict the market.

Invisible demand is undistinguishable from no demand, as far as B2C is concerned.

The thing with binaural is that the listener isn't "safe": the singer can go sing very near one's ear, violating expectations of personal space. So there might be rejection when used unfairly. I think binaural is a great

I'll stick with D then :)

Perhaps a GC would help Rust being this productive?

It's because software LOC scales linerarly with the amount of man-months spent: a testament to the unique ability of our species to create beautiful, abstract designs that will stand the test of time.

Hey thanks! The ABBA thing is gone entirely. I have difficulty remembering the mental process that generated that, it scares me a lot I must say. It was quite, uh, compulsive.

Hello I had the exact same affliction as a kid. I would always do things in ABBA sequence, up to your 1001-0110-0110-1001 pattern. I remember it made things "balanced" to finalize that sequence. It went off around when I was 7 I t

No comment was about supplements that are 500IU + 110mg Calcium. If you 10x this does you will have too much calcium. Vitamin D supplements can sometimes be underdosed.

Hello, I didn't noticed a lot of changes with 2000 IU but at 5000 IU the effect on mood is dramatic and quite noticeable. Being liposoluble the effect has quite a latency over several days. It's basically the "summer vacation

Whoa! Extremely cool. Though for product descriptions, I didn't get actionable advice. Hope it improves soon. Actually I would need this for short sentences (slogans).

D is faster to compile, 3 backends, easier to start with, more expressive metaprogramming, optional runtime and GC, compile-time duck typing, Visual Studio debugger, grassroot "agnostic" community, very pleasurable and productive

Suppose you are standing anywhere on planet Earth, and you look at the horizon (not up, not down, so 360° of choice). A normalized quaternion encodes your position on the planet + the direction you are looking at on the horizon. It also enc
