> What the heck: "You convicted for fraud in the past 10 years?" "Nope." "You liar, you were convicted in 2006!" Also, they seemed to agree that it wasn't fraud or similar. Also also, Sunde isn't w

Be that as it may, it's possible for the driver to be a lethally reckless idiot and for Tesla to have dangerous door handles.

The hostility coming off of these comments is pretty off-putting. I share some of the sentiments and believe that the authro has some misconceptions. But I also believe that he makes a lot of great points. Installing and maintaining program

Tbh I like both the erlang style and the Elixir style and don't see a _tremendous_ amount of difference, e.g. foo(X) -> Y = maybe_function(X), final_function(Y). Both, in my eyes, yield a declarative flow

In many cases, Erlang has a simplicity that is largely unmatched. I love the pipe operator and it's something I miss in a lot of languages, but just as often I miss the simple form of Erlang as well, being able to just define a series

In addition to "learning how to learn", esp early schooling offers a lot of social benefits, plus (depending on country etc) food and time away from home, which are important to a lot of kids (unfortunately).

But... favoring a certain class of people _by definition_ means that those people arent necessarily the best equipped. Being favored doesn't just mean reaching the best results due to the best circumstances, it also means being given u

In my opinion, all talk of meritocracy, when applied, is irrelevant. I mean, it sounds good in principle, but in most applications, there is no simple way of determining the "best" candidate in any given situation. Yeah, sure, we

Are they? Sounds odd that the norm would be for people to take birthdays off.

For any application of meaningful size, "science and technology" cannot be divorced from "ideology and politics". I'm not blaming you solely but the recurring idea that it can is worrying.

you've gotten a lot of replies regarding the lives of milk cows and how they're bred - one other factor athat I didn't see mentioned is that only about half of the calves turn into dairy oows, and the world has very little us

why are wild animals only used as an ethical measure tape when it comes to animal consumption?

hyenas or old human populations dont have the ability or opportunity to reduce harm we do farming animals is bad no matter what hyenas do, that's such a weird counterargument

Basically only message passing. As another poited out, you can use FFI calls and Erlang Term Storage, possibly some other means to communicate, but the central feature is that each process has an ID, and then you send() a message to it. eac

What functionality is missing, in your mind, from Sqaurespace, Webflow, and Wix in order to classify them as UI page creators?

Counterpoint: Tax employers additionally, since they now face lower rent and spend less on office supplies and coffee. Or, hell, tax high-income earners. For instance bank executives working for shady banks

Yeah might get away with just version control. If my understanding of blockchains is correct, which it almost certainly isn't, then the core features you're after would exist in the overlap between a distributed VCS and a block ch

Thats an interesting question for sure. Would need to be calculated against the current energy needs, hopefully an increase in seaweed feed leads to a decrease in soy bean farming. I'd rather eat the seaweed or soy directly, but this c

"Incompetence and dereliction of duty" are cop-outs, in the case that there are underlying causes. If, say, reduced staffing and increasing demand leads to worsened worker conditions, and that in turn affects their ability to do t

Microcontrollers aren't really my thing, so this might not be a perfect fit, but: Elixir Nerves is an Elixir project/platform that targets embedded systems. Might be of use to those of you interested in this.
