This website and article has Spider-Man pointing meme vibes to it except all the Spider-Mans are various kinds of right-wing grifters.

How can it be a "clear example" when it's subjective by your own admission ("they feel")?

That’s not universally true, and indeed some languages (e.g. Haskell without extensions) have explicitly designed decidable type systems.

At that point, why not just call them i/u8/16/32/64? If the sizes are fixed anyway, why come up with different names for them, especially when almost all of the times you would want to select a different integer type is

Unless you are referring to another term, "add oil" ( https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/加油 ) is just a term of encouragement, derived from the verb to refuel a car. I don't think it really has a connotation o

You know, when terms get transferred from other languages, they don't always retain the meaning from the original language and may undergo a semantic change in the destination language. For instance, nobody is going to characterize the

If you've never heard the phrase before as an American, it would sound extremely vulgar! What else would you infer the meaning as in context?

How would you feel on the other side of this? Given how recently discrimination was still legal, is it really great that you can shrug and say "well, tough tits I guess"?

I really don't like how monads get couched in this way: they're a fundamental concept that you can see everywhere (at least understood by functional programmers with Promise.then/Promise.resolve, Array.flatMap/[x], etc.)

I understand this comment is poo-pooing the idea of gender being separate from biological sex, but even biological sex is not as straightforward as having a Y chromosome meaning you're a man, such as women with Swyer syndrome...

IRC is so janky it’s almost definitely worth throwing it out at this point: - No standard authentication system, you have to go private message someone called NickServ. - No chat history built in unless you run a bouncer. - A lot of weird l

Why not just do this with a regular stack and avoid having to deal with the scheduler at all? Try pop from the stack and if the stack is empty, do a new allocation.

You are intentionally reversing the direction of the claim to be disingenuous here. By your logic, the number one facilitator of crime/gambling is also breathing air and drinking water, might want to check your facts.

I think it always a mistake to start a goroutine without passing a context to it, since you are no longer able to cancel the goroutine unless you build your own mechanism to do so. Given that, I think you can handwave it a bit and regard co

I'm not a big fan of context variables: they're basically a super clunky kind of goroutine-local global variable, with all the problems you might get with these kinds of mutable global variables. I would argue that if you're

Yes? Parallelism is inherently concurrent but concurrency is not inherently parallel. But single core concurrency still exists as a form of non-parallel concurrency. The point I'm trying to make is down to brass tacks, single core conc
