Do you mean leaning on rules like: .myWidgetClass form{ ... } .myWidgetClass form >input{ ... }

Yes, and I wish 100% would respect that implicit width but it doesn't. Try it

by truckerbill 3y ago
Not if the parent or ancestors don't have a width set... Hence why you need context.

I think it probably depends on how they spend it. Investments that increase efficiency would be long-term deflationary. Infrastructure, education, research etc. All the obvious stuff we all know we need more of.

It's not really ideological but practical. If you don't want accrual of resources into small pockets of people, it needs to be mixed around. The "entitlement" the government has is their transitory monopoly on violence.

Yes. But importantly its not the printing of money that was the problem either. If you think about the path money takes especially the furlough: government -> consumer -> big capital (Petro/chemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Food Conglo

It's tragedy of the commons. A series of events that have happened which has misaligned the market into an unspoken cartel. An opportunity (or temporary need) arose to raise prices and now they don't want to lower them. They are l

What's your stance on WebGPU - from my understanding it could be perfect thing for Futhark to target, as it would allow for truly portable GPU code both hardware and platform-wise.

There's no hoarding or saving. The wage/rent ratio is insanely skewed. This isn't a 'be smart' situation it's a 'something has to change before the bottom falls out' situation.

At the moment life is somewhat enjoyable. Unless you're living downwind from an enormous wildfire (or next to one).

Worth at least trying to push back on things. Imagine you were diagnosed with a terminal disease, that also is passed on to your offspring. Everyone tells you you're screwed, but some controversial group of doctors think there's

Because they naturally don't want to rely on exploitation to the same degree. That's not a problem of the concept but the context.

Yes I definitely agree with that sentiment. Some things unfortunately happen faster with community support. Platform integrations, toolchains etc that require a lot of busywork. But I think I'll cautiously move with Odin regardless as

I want to invest in Odin but I see the velocity and growing mindshare that Zig has and I wonder if it's not better to settle for that. Also how do you find the compile times?

It's worked before. Some places in the world have a healthier housing situation and it didn't happen by accident. Politics doesn't go away no matter how many buildings you burn down.

burning houses = less houses. Start by doing real politics not a junta

It's really since the Reagan years that it shot through the roof. Look at the data

The point is they would need less wealth if they also weren't spending the second half of your life saving up for a house... And you can still give them the money Still makes no sense to me

Housing shouldn't be an investment vehicle. It seems pretty obvious but no-one wants to give up their imaginary number. (Imaginary because most people have 1 or fewer houses and will always need to live somewhere, so they can't sp

You should absolutely. How would you do it?

Can you explain this point a bit more? I've always hated retained mode GUI systems and im-guis seem so much nicer to work with. But I've not made something huge with them. What do you mean by compositing in this context?

by truckerbill 3y ago
Stop and think about that for just a second... (As an aside, it seems a lot of people unwittingly are making this choice which I find both curious and very depressing)

but the point is people won't do this.

This actually would solve a lot of problems also. Rent-seeking isn't very productive compared to what removing it enables.

Tail wagging the dog. Land costs wouldn't be millions if you couldn't turn the thumbscrews on tenants. To be a little less glib, it's easy to imagine other non-profit funding structures such as co-ops and government help (dir

Exactly. It shouldn't be an investment vehicle, rent on land causes rocketing costs on everything down the chain. Only big monopolies survive. Places that are well governed and cheap to live in are often creative hubs. You might want t
