How are you going to do any kind of business with Chinese companies without speaking Chinese? Even if you use an interpreter, clearly someone in the loop is speaking Chinese.

How would you get it there? Besides, if you were confident enough to not accidentally make a dirty bomb, you might as well just send it into the sun instead!

Isn’t this just a case of right tool for the right problem? If you were writing, say, an IntelliJ plugin I think you would much rather prefer Java over Clara rules, and not a subjective opinion of profoundness. Also, having asked about Hask

Not in the original C, where you had to declare function parameter types like so: int foo(x) int x; { return x; } and not in C23 (or GNU C) either, where this is legal (this example is not super useful): int foo(int

I think, at that point, you should rather make Wherr be `struct Wherr<E> { inner: E, ... }` to avoid having to do a dynamic cast - I don't personally like the idea of erasing guarantees of what types you're getting.

Consider this: #[derive(Debug)] enum MyError { A, B, C } impl std::fmt::Display for MyError { fn fmt(&self, f: &mut std::fmt::Formatter) -> std::fmt::Result { write!(f, "{:?}&quot

It is a huge factor: you can't pattern match the original error anymore because its type is erased. You can no longer distinguish between different variants of an error enum, so you have to handle any kind of error the same way, which

This boxes all errors and erases the return type at compile time.

No, it’s partial application. Currying is when a 1-arity function either returns another 1-arity function or the result.

I don’t think you can do that with a generator expression. You would have to write: sum(1 for age in ages if age > 17)

The problem with Python is of course that it is an interpreted language with lazy evaluation […] Huh?

The example is… not the best: if you’re checking if two pages are identical, you should match up each byte and compare them byte for byte. Hashing just adds an extra step: you’re going to need to read every byte anyway!

Sure, but imagine how unwelcoming to everyone it would be if you didn't get a stack trace.

There are also countries where beating your wife is perfectly legal. I don’t think you should use legality to determine if something is a problem or not.

I’m rebutting the parent post that claims countries other than the US somehow have a better solution to landfilling for non-recyclable waste. Of course solving the root cause is the right thing to do, no argument from me!

Is incineration really that much better? You’re trading off one kind of pollution for another: toxic emissions and toxic byproducts that still have to be disposed of in some way… One way or another, countries have to deal with non-recyclabl

For one, artists and photographers use Instagram to promote their work. The viral nature of social media makes it a lot easier for posts to get traction compared to, say, having to go through making your own portfolio site and then having t

I didn't say European attitudes were responsible for workers' rights in the US being bad: that would be a hell of a cause. It's just extremely tiring when Europeans come in to flex their workers' rights super smugly like

It makes no sense to put the blame on individuals like this. I am no fan of the lack of workers' rights in the US, but the holier-than-thou European smugness is really not appreciated, given how little recourse people have in the Ameri
