Big question. Some glittering generalities: 1. These languages, having been used many times over to write compilers, have been battle-tested. 2. These languages do a good job of making immutable data structures easy to reach for and use, wi

I don't know much, if anything, about Brexit — but certainly Economist isn't the only publication that's been bearish on Brexit. I'm interested in reading someone that's bullish. Is there coverage of Brexit that you

Princeton is indeed beautiful. The housing stock is a little mixed -- the apartments near the university are pretty old, and there wasn't much new construction happening when I attended the university in the late 2000s, but the homes (

Counterpoint: I see a lot of (K)N95 masks on the MTA subway. At least 50% during rush hour. I think people here know about how useless the other masks are.

I agree with this: the game appears simple but there are some surprisingly complex interactions, and even pro players consult the wiki/spreadsheet/external resources during their runs. For example, only last month did Jorbs discov

If you're interested in reading more about leaded gasoline, I highly recommend Jamie Lincoln Kitman's in-depth article about it from 2000. It makes the case that the US government played a key role in allowing bad science to sprea
