This is like, a hypernormalization of the data though, isn't it? I think in standard BCNF you'd just leave your table as CREATE TABLE EntityPosition ( int EntityId, float X, float y, float z ) It does rem

I joined my senior year of HS. My original account is 17 years old this year. I'll probably just continue to use old.reddit.com for a few niche time wasters on desktop, but the decline in quality is already apparent. It's a damn

Societies should stop criminalizing drugs and drug users. It's not just about being a poor way to govern a society. There are a lot of good folks across the world who live in dangerous communities because others have a predilection f

Most households with a mortgage are also not, on a yearly basis, severely outspending their income. The problem is not necessarily the debt - it's the debt plus the deficit.

LINQ is just functional list comprehensions. Do you think that LINQ is only used for EF/LINQ2SQL?

This is one of my favorite lectures on this topic. It's a podcast from Sam Harris from a couple of years ago, but I still go back to listen to it every few months. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u45SP7Xv_oU

There are some libraries that allow you to do some stuff. You can attach metadata to some objects about types in some contexts. But obviously it's bolted on because under the hood it's all Javascript.

Gods, I tried to do some reflection stuff in a Node TS project I got put on about 18-24 months ago, and it was a total shit show. It was really disappointing to see how lacking the actual runtime capabilities of TS are.
