   > I have no way of knowing if that means there's a record [5, NULL] in table y, or if there's no record in table y that starts with 5. You can always add SELECT y.a, which will allow you to disambiguate between the two options

   Restore backups may be a rarely used feature (where applicable), but it's not a good reason not to have it (working properly).

   Thanks @riidom! Good times. Hope you'll come back to the Lua world ;).

   Thank you, Justine, for your kind words and all the work you put into Redbean and Cosmopolitan!

   Thanks @grimgrin! BTW, Fullmoon scripts can be debugged too.

   It looks like this contact may now fall under "A PERSON WHO IS THE SUBJECT OF POLICE CONTACT MAY RECORD THE ENCOUNTER" clause, which still allows recording, as they are not longer a bystander, but I'm not a lawyer.

    I also maintain wxlua (Lua wrapper around wxwidgets: https://github.com/pkulchenko/wxlua ) and it is expected to work with the current wxwidgets release (I tested with a recent pre-release version).

    Thanks tomcam! There are still several sections that need to be completed (mostly around template processing), but getting feedback like this is always encouraging.

    This issue should be resolved now and redbean-2.0.2+ includes a fix for it.

    Interesting idea, but I think this is too short (and page transitions take longer than reading of each page). BTW, on p5: s/who’s/whose/ in "who’s room is this".

    I read it differently: the company will not shut down, but abandon attempts to resolve the issue (whether for a product or a set of customers) due to its complexity. Using major in GP's description was to highlight that the company h

    Ha, I was doing exactly the same thing 30 years or so ago; even running comparisons between minor version releases. ARJ was doing very well compression- and performance-wise (and also had open unarj code as far as I remember).

    I don't think there is an official style convention, but there are popular style guides; for example, this one [1] is using the same style for variable naming. I do use all lowercase for most of my other Lua projects, but I thought cam

    Don't be. I just want to provide a fair warning, but some of my other projects (wxlua and ZeroBrane Studio already mentioned in other comments) maintain compatibility with dependency versions released 8 years ago. The API is also more

    Yes, that register patch may be needed on some Linux systems; I'll add this to the documentation. Redbean can't use the system Lua, so it comes bundled with its own Lua interpreter (Lua 5.4; there is also work being done to allow

    Thank you for the feedback and all the kind words. @jart did a great job on Redbean/Cosmopolitan, so it's a delight to use and build on top of.

    (Fullmoon author here) I actually started with integrating Lapis into redbean (I have redlapis module that mimics a subset of openresty API over redbean to Lapis, so I can run it over Redbean), but it led to too much work given the differen

    It's not tax free, as you're still paying the income tax on it, but if you (as the owner) get it as distribution instead of salary, then you're not paying payroll taxes on it, which is what was suggested in the parent comment

    I read his call as being specifically directed at ads, rather than all public works (like his work), so I don't really see the contradiction.

    I had a similar reaction. I very much enjoyed reading On Intelligence shortly after it was published and was eagerly waiting for A Thousand Brains, but it left me with a conflicting impression. I found some of the details I was looking for

    Maybe it's the same effect as happens with monoculture ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoculture#Risks ): more efficient, but more fragile/risky?

    I'm curious why would this increase taxes if those contributions that get converted are after-tax anyway and the amount that gets taxed shouldn't change?
