I read a comment the other day that referred to oversized american SUVs as wankpanzers . Love it.

Oh boy, reading through this comment section is a hard pill to swallow. I have always had memory problems and I can recall hardly anything that happened a year ago. When meeting up with friends I will prepare stories to tell but after I&#x2

Many drugs feel great but don't make you more productive. Medical issues are a big exception yeah. I wasn't able to focus at all while high, at least not for a prolonged period of time... I guess it's just different for me. M

Fourth guy I was thinking of has a job so I guess I know 3. Parents and unemployment money yeah. I really miss one guy in particular, none of our group ever see him anymore. The only way I can know what's happening in his life is to ta

I've developed a pretty strong aversion it's true. To the point where being high doesn't feel nice anymore. I also know two people with PhDs who smoke, they are the kind that limit themselves to smoking in the evening. But th

Weed cost me 5 years of my life that I'm never getting back. It's great if some people can form better habits than me but all the weed users I know (plenty) use it every day all day. The biggest detriment is opportunity cost, time

Hah sounds like you described me perfectly. But I do have to say, ever since I'm programming full-time I seem not to be able to just code for fun anymore. I used to program all day long.. and I guess I still do, but now it's for w

Sure, you owe him a car for the duration, the fact that he can get it whenever he wants doesn't change much. If the car you stored goes missing (and you set up a contract) you'll find you now owe him money. Another interesting thi

Huh, I was hoping for more maths/CS theory/software architecture. What are some books that you feel really catapulted your understanding of a particular facet of programming to the next level?

One emoji I wish I had a good ASCII alternative for is :thinking: U+1F914. There is :^) but only the skype generation will make sense of that.

Seriously. I moved out of home with 0 cooking skills and after a few years of having to feed myself I feel like I'm becoming just average. It's amazing how many variables there are to control when doing even the most basic task li

Anyone working in an office will have probably come in contact with GDPR. Blue collar workers probably not so much. Maybe people will know it as the cause of cookie popup screens. But I'm also grossly over-estimating computer literacy

Reading through this thread maybe my opinion is particularly un-nuanced, but I have always assumed that people who say stuff like this are just speaking clickbait and they don't mean it and me and them know it. People seem mostly fine

I have a couple years old Dell XPS 13 and it's small, light, and has really good battery life. Coincidentally the only thing I'm not a fan of is the keyboard, though I'm not sure how it compares to other laptops of equal flat

It took some additional help from IRC but I think I got it now. Thanks for your answer! In general, while total angular momentum is conserved, rigid bodies tend to rotate in an unstable fashion, because rigid-body forces apply different amo

Out of interest: I looked up "Hydrostatic equilibrium" and it says "[thing is in equilibrium] when the flow velocity at each point is constant over time". How exactly does that statement relate to what you said?
81.
by schindlabua 8y ago
Exactly. You more commonly hear this when talking about Lisp. Racket is a Lisp and so is Scheme or Common Lisp, and what we mean by that is dialects. In the article he mentions J, K and Dyalog as APLs.

My big 5 are C/C++, asm, Haskell, Prolog, and some LISP. They cover a broad spectrum of languages, each encouraging a different way of thinking.

What Javascript really needs is monads and do-notation. Can I use Haskell on the web yet?

Are you talking about freenode? I just joined #xkcd and it's 8 people and no topic set. 3 other users joined and immediately left, I guess those were from HN aswell. (A big channel for everyone to join is ##programming, by the way.)

I always envy the guy who registered the nick "e" on freenode. He must be ancient, one of the first users since NickServ came into being, and I imagine him as this grey-bearded programmer wizard who speaks in x86 assembly. He hang

I feel almost ashamed to admit it, but I've never used vim for work. I use nano for quick edits and sublime text (or rmate+sublime text) for everything else. Maybe I haven't found the right use case yet.

Ok so sometimes I have no concept of what american and british variants of a word are because I'm from mainland europe and so I will just use whatever. Sorry maintainers! Grey/Gray gets me every time.
