If you ignore the stated guarantees of the API and depend on implementation details instead, then it’s on you? I might understand if it were unstated, but it explicitly states it’s not. Otherwise the only way to have a non-stable sort funct

Anyone can edit a page… but not all edits have to be accepted. The problem, as it usually is with anything open on the internet, is that a malicious user can do ridiculously more damage with less effort and time than a benevolent user can p

I lived in the middle of Chicago for 4 years and never saw any crimes while I was there; littering and (harmless) drunks perhaps the worst of it. Of course, I naturally avoided any area/time where I expected crime to occur… but I didn’

I have no expectation of it; They do everything slowly, regardless of how simple the task, and it’s been that way for ages. And they do ridiculous amounts of configuration. Im fairly sure at this point it’s just mountains of intermixed lo

As I understand it, the problem is the defense strategy, not the particular case at hand. They’ve essentially composed an argument that makes it impossible for bird, or the city, to ever be at fault, irrespective of circumstance. That in th

I’m pretty sure half the purpose of the article is to resolve the ambiguity: does it hurt because the paradigm is inelegant for this problem, or because I don’t know how to make it elegant? Just stopping anytime you struggle is precisely ho

You say progress, but it’s kind of both an endless treadmill and you’re weaker usually by lack of options; When I used to play LoL, like 5-7 years ago, I was playing a rate of like 3-4 hours daily, which barely scraped by the amount of esse

It still depends on their contribution right? If you said all lights are equal in strength, then being on top of one gives a strength of 1. Being x units away from it gives a some value less than 1, based on the sqrt of distance Being close

Yes. The more complex and more dynamic the UI, the worse the separation gets. The worst of it being when you’re writing code to generate your XML/HTML, and probably introducing a third “templating” language to continue the pretense tha

These have existing exactly the same in C# for a bit, and they’re fantastic bits of sugar — null checking comes up everywhere so its a low-impact high-volume benefit; looking at it as a one-off is pointless (see fstrings as a similar chan

The steady state is like Big-O notation; it’s already talking about the edge (as time grows to infinity). A single day deviation doesn’t really matter — your queue might shrink and grow a little day-to-day, but on average it’ll grow more th

If the language implements them as lazy iteration, then I think take_until would be effectively equivalent to break, with early exiting behavior. List.where(…).map(…).take_until(…)
