Why even consider these counterfactuals? Is asking Facebook to not amplify bald-faced calls for ethnic cleansing too much here? Can we agree that Facebook should make a conscious effort to NOT do that, and failing that withdraw from the mar

I don't think you're engaging with the GP's ideas in good faith. Yes, capitalism lifts people out of poverty at an unimaginable scale, but the GP's contention is that this is only _for the moment_. According to the GP, t

I love seeing projects like this! I have one too, but it completely throws away compatibility and is very simplistic. I opted for a lisp-like language instead of a lua-like language ( https://github.com/sid-code/nmoo bu

Putting out a laundry list of projects (that are inferior to those that operate within the fiat ecosystem) isn't going to change the fact that 95% of people in crypto are looking to enrich themselves on speculation or to part said fool

For anyone that doesn't already know, Jellyfin is pretty close to Plex feature-wise. One killer feature it has over Plex is respect for your freedoms.

I would say [ab]* has order type omega. That's because the set of strings it represents is: {epsilon, ab, abab, ababab, abababab, ...} which looks a lot like omega. (epsilon = empty string) What this exercise really is is finding a can

I wonder if it makes sense to compute an "order type" for a regexp. For example, a* is omega, a*b* is 2 omega. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_type https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ord

Professors blame the pandemic, but the true root cause is the blithe attitude American society has towards mathematics that seems to be ubiquitous outside of the east coast. This affects each student a decade before they enter high school;

Your last paragraph tries to use population arguments to prove that individual decisions are illogical. That doesn't look great after calling people who hold a certain position "intellectual children".

This is, more or less, how I learned Rust circa 2015 (might have been a couple years later). I quickly started to write programs like I would have in C but got completely thwarted by the borrow checker because I wanted pointers everywhere.

It's very simple: Chinese and Japanese people do not like people who don't look like them. Were you trying to bait someone into saying that? I'll say it because I have been told by natives of both that it's true. Here in
