You say that the optimal state of society is for everyone to apply programming and logic etc. but the obvious final result of these developments is that no one will.

Not really, the `any` type doesn't let you perform any operation on it with runtime dispatch like dynamic typing does. Moving logic into json isn't a language feature.

Funny how all these dynamically typed languages are gradually becoming typed, but none of the statically typed languages are gradually becoming untyped.

Ah, then they’re implementing needless features! What’s worse! lol

Can we have a feature to hide post karma?

You added the word "want", the OP said "need". "We don't ever expect to add X" implies "we don't think we need X."

Whether they made a good decision or not, or changed their mind or not, is beside the point (I think they did, and they did!). I was merely replying to the claim that > They didn't say they never wanted to do generics, but that they

The OP didn't mention generics or generic methods :) They referred to something that was added, after the Go team didn't anticipate adding it. Sounds like a fair point to me!

I'm not mad, I'm a proponent of stronger type systems. I'm just correcting the record about > They didn't say they never wanted to do generics, but that they did want to take their time and do them right.

“Opt-in by default” = opt-out?

Hi! I'm a human being that is trying to understand the world and make friends along the way. I see you are too! Pleased to meet you. You asked the question > Where did "they" say "we" didn't need generics? A

"In Minecraft" doesn't mean what it used to. When somebody wrote an 8-bit CPU literally "in Minecraft" it used to be badass. Now it's just a game addon.

Pretty interesting, but what’s the reason of being for Fil-C?

The issue for me is that I seem to really "page out" parts of my life that aren't relevant to the situation I'm in. If I were to sincerely answer the "how are you" question, I would have to pause for ten or twe

That’s a pretty non sequitur. Nobody said he wasn’t concerned with ROI. He’s said that not every decision is based on ROI.

The internet has objectively made life worse, and the people who say it hasn't haven't experienced the alternatives. Many people will never know true joy because of the internet.

The above posts forgot the word "legitimate" before "monopoly": a state is defined as the entity that has the legitimate monopoly on violence within a defined geographic area. A state can cease to have the legitimate m

Sure, applications are necessary, but why will humans do that?

But in this future, why will “the most compelling motivations, the clearest explanations, and the most useful maps between intuitions, theorems, and applications” be necessary? Catering to hobbyists?
