I actually think self-driving is one of the easier paths of development. The main thing holding it back right now is regulation and liability. But, if you could wave a wand and eliminate all legal and liability hurdles to self-driving, auto

I mean, you've linked to a function performing md5 hashing. That's pretty much exactly what I would expect such code to look like. Case in point: https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master&#x2F

Lots of things were disallowed in 0.19, but probably the most disruptive were that custom native modules were disallowed (which basically means that, only certain official packages would now be allowed to directly call native JavaScript), a

The key is to find something that you enjoy sucking at. I recently picked up quad rollerskating and the process of getting steadier and smoother at it (while just enjoying the vibes, music and community at my local rink) has become an obses

The broad strokes of what Wikipedia considers notable has not changed significantly in the last 20 years. What has mostly changed is that there are more editors now, and thus more eyes and also more serious discussion (rigor?) about such th

Huh? The word "better" is the comparative form of the adjective "good". Or did you misunderstand the comment you're replying to?

"pump the price of a token" seems like the complex part that you're hand-waving. Either this token has a bunch of other traders (in which case, it's not trivial to simply "pump" its fair-market price by your ow

Anonymous records aren't complex in principle. The main challenge Haskell has always faced in this area, is the simple fact that its type system (and syntax) weren't designed for anonymous records from the start, so they have to b
