Perhaps he is, but the field isn't worth discounting nonetheless, and he's one of the most prominent researchers of it.

It's unfortunate that people seem to be prejudiced against Wolfram at this point, when the field has a lot to explore and learn from. Cellular automata are so powerful, yet so conceptually simple, it wouldn't surprise me if it did

People don't want the responsibility of having kids and raising them properly, so they substitute their posterity for foreigners as a bandaid fix. EU is truly a yikes.

I keep hearing about this "ageism" but it's never made sense to me. I would always want to hire an older, wiser developer, if I were calling the shots. Why is this a thing?

A lot of NGOs are government funded, just through multiple layers of indirection, so they can claim they aren't.

Unmarked vans drive around all the time. They don't typically park out front of a whistleblower's house. There is more scrutiny there than driving down any random street. Therefore, a more sufficient cover would be required.

I started programming with Python years and years ago. My journey has led me to preferring low-level languages (currently in a Zig bout), and revisiting Python has been a disappointing experience. Not necessarily bad , but instead of focus

The low-effort posting (AKA shitposting) is part of what makes it great. It's kind of an acquired taste, but there's a certain humor to it.

You just described why it's unique, and then claimed it's not unique. It's clearly not your cup of tea.

I tend to enjoy the banter on 4chan more than here. Everyone is expected to dish it and take it there. Peoples' biases are obvious, because they make it clear who they dislike fairly often. Nobody actually takes any real offense to it

I understand that, but my sliver of hope is that since it's an open architecture, there will be manufacturers that make very hackable versions of it.

True. I'm meaning more "take a one month government-sponsored class to learn about safe methods of protest, the relevant regulations on sound amplification, and what words are deemed too profane for putting on a sign, in order to

Is the society that relies on everyone else to make the decisions that serve their best interests free either?

All it'd take really is one or two of the big states banning it, and they'd be financially incentivized to disable it for all markets. That's how it seems to have gone for other things in the past.

I didn't say it was novel. It's just not something you see in modern languages.

Some are of the opinion that that should be handled a layer up, such as a container restart, because the program could be left in a broken state which can only be fixed by resetting the entire state.

It makes logical sense to do imports that way when operator overloading exists. Otherwise your custom operators would look like: import other varA other.`+` varB Which is very ugly. At that point, we might as well just go with

If anything that just proves the point more. Either the kiosk was conveniently built with all of those coinciding measurements on accident, or someone built them into it intentionally. One is more likely than the other.
