Americas version of democracy is next level messed up. Start voting for people you want in power. Stop voting for the lesser evil. Yes you cant always avoid it but a functioning democracy involves a forcing of ideologies to work together th

I use gruvbox, light when there is a lot of light around (e.g. im outside) and dark mode when im indoors. There is more to this than all the biological talk too. I use it as a context switch and prefer to review code in light mode, while i

The sentiment that blacks are equal was rare once too. I find your understanding of this rather contrived given that your constitution has nothing to do with me. Your ip laws on the other hand, well, they stretch far and wide around countri

So does extending copyright term lengths indefinitely but here we are. You lot realise IP law is supposed to encourage innovation for the good of society right? Not stifle and opress it.

Last i checked rosa parks did something illegal too. Not all laws need to be followed. And just because some people will beleive anything doesnt make this belief any less relevant or important.

Same way if you own a terrace house in downtown Sydney youre only allowed to do certain things to maintain the historic nature of the buildings. Same way we say you cant dump chemical waste on land you own just because you own it. We place

Whats old is new again. Laravel et al read like java. Nobody wants that crap anymore. Everyones moving codebases back to more procedural styles with a good dose of functional leanings towards immutable values.

I dont agree with you at all. Why are you building arrays with mixed key types? Why do you want type hints? Why do you need generics in a dynamically typed language? Php has pthreads. They just arent needed that often. Async is being worked

Code complexity is a thing. It doesnt describe understandability but its a pretty decent proxy in my experience. > In 1976, Thomas McCabe Snr proposed a metric for calculating code complexity, called Cyclomatic Complexity. https:/&

Chrome had v8, it was fast. Forefox sort of got left behind performance wise. You could still have a million tabs open, something chrome struggled with, so it kept some users. But it took quantum to get users back.

What is the issue? I just got flagged for explaining that they're not aiming for equality but equity. I find this odd. Iagree with the move sometimes you need to do the wrong thing to get the right outcomes.
