From what I can see JAMstack is just model (api) view (markup) controller (java-script) for web browsers. But it needs a new name because MVC is lame. While PSA treated the browser as a thick client with a very slow disk accessed over the n

Deposed King Luis Executed by Revolutionary Government. It's not hard to be objective when you put your mind to it. It's just that it doesn't pay since everyone has a spin they prefer.

That depends on what you think the point of justice is. Is it to make you feel better or to improve society? Personally I'd go for improving society because as fun as lynchings are we probably shouldn't kill minorities we don'

I have a dream, that one day I will live in a country where peoples credibility will be decided by the strengths of their argument and not the sound of their accent.

Just copy blind auditions orchestras do. Everything is done by typed text, with no humans visible. Jurors just sit isolated in a booth reading the text, or have the same person read out all the text to them. Lawyers would be against it, but

This is where having a hippy friend who doesn't believe in money is really useful. The trick is to get them sober, washed and suited up for the meeting where you sign. And be very, very nice to them the next few years when they ask you

>There's been a lot of coverage around false-flag sorts of behavior in Portland And has any of it found to be true? I see a worrying amount of blame on invisible spies for actions that happen all the time in the real world without t

Your conspiracy theory is a conspiracy fact when you think about peoples motivations. Take the current virus. We realize that the republican version of 'it's a hoax and everything is fine' is a lie. But so is the democrat ver

They are also using exchange rate $ equivalent instead of PPP, the ratio then is 1.93 for the Netherlands to the US. This is a lie by the fact checkers. One that pushes an agenda that's obvious to see for everyone who cares to look.

There is nothing simpler than misusing statistics. The right wing does it all the time. 53% of all prisoners are black, ergo blacks are criminals. Homosexuals represent 70% of all HIV infections, ergo homosexuality is inherently risky and s

Not sure what you mean, it depends on the implementation. The cheapest cop out answer would be: use racket and step through until you reach the point where it fails. The IDE even gives you a nice handy list of the current continuation. I ca

Lisp is about writing a dsl that solves your problem. It just happens to be an s-expression dsl. Exactly how it works depends on the problem domain. But in my experience a lisp dsl is much less brittle than trying to map the problem into a

Change the Haskell example to read 3 and 5 as n and m from an external file. All of a sudden your beautiful code is now a huge mess and you need to refactor the one liner into at least three separate functions to try and keep the Maybe type

The main difference is that in lispy languages you wouldn't use the language itself to solve the problem. You'd extend it. I'd write a function that is (drop3-take5 test list) which does exactly what it says. This might seem
