Is American ice cream different from other countries when it comes to melting? When I carry ice cream in warm weather(Germany) it melts to a puddle in about ~4 minutes.

Requiring type annotations on all functions would make programming with higher order functions very laborious. I'd agree if we're talking about top-level only, though.

"George Soros is funding Antifa, BLM, neo-Nazis, the refugee crisis in EU". Jesus Christ. 13 hours and this conspiracy drivel is still there in full black. I guess HN's really jumped the shark.

For my current project in C++ I just use cmake. It works fine on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD & OpenBSD, spits out stuff that integrates with the native/most commonly used build environment on the respective platform, provides faciliti

Personally, I think what these sites are doing now(dropping support for websites that distribute nazi propaganda) is the moral thing to do. However, I am bit worried that this seems to happen in response to social media shit storms and not

Sure, I'm not saying you should 100% believe everything you hear. Just that dismissing such things outright based on a lack of personal experience is also not the right way.

by tpush 9y ago
Believe it or not, there is stuff happening that you are not aware of. If your first reaction to hearing such things is "Well I've never seen it, therefore it probably doesn't exist", maybe some self-reflection is in or

Different cultures, different laws, different values. I know Americans mostly are very absolutist when it comes to free speech and its limitations. However consider that other countries do have different priorities or a different understan

Ahem, what? Are you really saying underrepresented people don't know why they don't contribute to a project they maybe would have?

"If you then continue to actually shoot up a school tomorrow then a) that's the actual crime b) great lulz will be head." Really? "Great lulz will be head(sic)"? I can't fathom what kind of person sees stuff li

"it's gonna make a huge dent in Google Analytics' numbers". Very unlikely, since almost nobody uses desktop Safari.

One of the greatest privileges I had while I was in school in Germany was listening to Holocaust survivors, live on stage, speak about their and their parents experiences. When learning about the Nazi time in history class I always had some

Google bans it for example: https://opensource.google.com/docs/using/agpl-policy/ . I would also be surprised if Apple (being so allergic to the GPLv3) used AGPLv3 software, though that's just speculation
866.
by tpush 9y ago
I think what fortytw2 was trying to say is that the AGPL is not a wise choice for software that wants to gain the most popularity and usage as possible since usage of AGPL licensed software is categorically banned (even more so than GPLV3)

No, I really didn't know much about type theory. (And I don't think I can study that at my university actually). I had an intuition of how parametric polymorphism worked because of my experience with Haskell, but I didn't kn
