There is literally zero statute or law preventing the sale of lighters to anyone. That being said, gas station attendants and Walgreens cashiers in the particular area I grew up (which was the bay area) would not sell them to anyone under 1

I'm not going to argue that it was major obstacle. Not at all. In fact I'm willing to concede that it is so much a non issue that I should not have included it on my list of reasons. But there was definitely a year of my life less

Sure, but it is still non trivial for teenagers to get lighters in California (where my experience comes from). The lighter is the juul itself. The cigarettes are the juul pods. A juul lasts longer than a lighter.

In California when I was a teenager six years ago it certainly was an obstacle.

I personally remember being a teenager in California trying to buy a lighter to smoke and it was not straightforward. Indeed, I ended up being successful, but I had to use a stove lighter we had lying around my house. Huh? Are you saying th

you don't need to purchase a lighter to use them and they last longer.

by webkike 7y ago
1. They taste better 2. Yes, they are easier to get, for a couple reasons: once you have a juul you only need juul pods, and additionally you don't need to purchase a lighter (which you need to be over eighteen a lot of places to purch

Usually cars meet emissions standards by increasing their MPG, so you'd pay less for gas.

A cheaper car to buy, not a cheaper car to own

That’s my point

How often does that happen? I can make the same argument about killing literally anyone because they might kill other people.

Sure, but it seems weird to prioritize the life of the police officer over the people they are sworn to protect. Policing is inherently dangerous. Sitting at home playing video games should not

Unsafe is purely a rust directive. It doesn’t affect LLVM IR output AFAIK
285.
by webkike 7y ago
LLVM is a really good backend that optimizes away a lot of it. Bounds checks, for example, usually get removed.

I can’t say much about the language, but I think the image at the bottom is somewhat inappropriate. Why is there a woman massaging a man while he uses a computer? I understand that this is to illustrate comfort, but this is not an appropria

I believe you can actually name the lifetime of a block, via the same mechanism that makes labeled breaks and continues possible.

Doesn’t that answer your own question?

A struct based lisp is something I’ve been wanting for a long time. This I am extremely interested in this project

Here’s a thought: targeted advertisements sell me crappier versions of things I’m likely to research, while non targeted ads actually aid in discoveribility of things I would not be already thinking of purchasing

Unfortunately, my Roku TV displays a big fat ad on the home screen. Incredibly infuriating considering how expensive the TV is. Need to change my DNS to one of those ad blocking ones soon.

You can harden this Quine even further (statistically) by adding lots of white space where ever it’s allowed

I understand that, I’m simply pointing out I think it’s important. Great article regardless (I should add)

Sure, that’s interesting in the sense that it is complicated to deal with, but these are not reasons for adding naming into the bytecode.
299.
by webkike 8y ago
Having naming be a bytecode level instruction kinda misses out on a whole level of what makes compiling interesting in my opinion. One of the challenges in compilation is to convert names to offsets representing names. This is an important

In response to the quote, which is indeed quite funny, I’ve found my favorite and most difficult Tetris variations often do offer an ending, sometimes requiring extreme lengths to complete however: https://youtu.be/6YOR-nAnj
