   Oh the immediate parent to me seemed to suggest something like this was all a good thing, but thank you for driving the point home that it was a bad thing, even at the time.

   What evidence do you have for this? There seems to be a lot of romanticism for an imagined can do spirit, and either people died, as they did in this case, or people understood risks and took action to mitigate them.

   A counselor told me emotions are another information input about what you value, and you can take them or leave them as far as acting on them, but you can't avoid feeling them for them very long and be healthy.

   This is a wonderful summary but I'm struck with how these things all seem unnecessarily complicated compared to Python' requests, Apache Commons clients, curl based libraries... I get that a lot of magic also comes from the Erlang

   There are many replies to this story about how it got people into the field of programming? Art is one thing, and I'm sure it was a great feeling to create leftpad but these writings sell a mystique that doesn't exist. It has alwa

   My complicated feelings is that producing it and consuming it was all very unhealthy. There is nothing mystical about a machine and it isn't curious or interested that you can make a universal machine do the logic of any conceivable ma

    But you list a bunch of factual inaccuracies which go beyond just preference.

    Clojure has been amazing for me in rapid prototyping of command line utilities. I never quite got the web app aspect beyond plain services, and I think clojurescript suffers from the greater 14 now 15 standards thinking the JavaScript world

    I do apologize and I do also appreciate your time. If something isn't even wrong, what neutral information can even be posted in response?

    I just don't like it when conspiracy theories are featured for days on the front page to be perfectly honest. That's not news for nerds, and it feel likes the community wants that flamebait if they keep promoting and engaging thin

    Could! But hasn't... Otherwise yes good points. I don't see how they measure all the rest of the probabilities and the article seems to be designed to settle arguments among dumb people or something? It is not even remotely scient
