Well. Yeah. They thought Covid was funny while blue states were disproportionately impacted early on. Then blue states took action while red one did not. Red states all of a sudden dominated per capita impact. Only when their voters were dr

It isn’t “speculative”. This is, in fact, measurable. Countries with worse action resulted in higher deaths. More people having access to the care they needed in hospitals undoubtedly saved lives. Keep drinking that rich people coolaide tho

Yeah okay. Elders go to war, or clean up nuclear disasters to save youth from it. Your hot take: Kill granny so I can get my nails done and eat at a restaurant.

Such as? I tried copilot once and it was pretty keen on sneaking itty bitty bugs in to my programs very frequently. It is fine for certain boiler plates, but it wasn’t “great” for anything that templates weren’t already great for.

Yeah. I agree. We have a strong offboarding process as well. But other employers? I mean. I’ve seen some shit in my day.

My SIN number has been leaked no less than 4 times tied to basically every standard identifying question about me now, if that helps ease your worry. I guess the new methodology is that a company cannot be sued if they just all leak data, t

Non-expiring passwords is probably no more or less secure, unless you are a rampantly terrible employer known for setting ablaze every bridge ever to the point of atomic annihilation.

If you’re looking for a language with less complexity than C++, you’re surely not going to find that in rust.

Yeah. And one of us is objectively, measurably correct, while the other is speaking in terms of “performance is a premature optimization” Haskell community brainwashing tomfoolery. I mean. Fundamentally, reducing cache invalidation, reducin

Uh no. The explanation is that Haskell has terrible performance idioms like “copying shit for no reason all the time”. There’s a reason that the prevailing opinion on language performance within the Haskell community is “thinking about perf

If you’re writing idiomatic Haskell. Its performance is terrible. If you’re choosing to fight with Haskell, why? Just use something else. To understand why people claim Haskell is “fast”, you need to understand what they mean. What they mea

One of zigs core tenets is “no hidden allocations”. You’ll never see zig language supporting a default value for allocator parameters to support hiding it at first glance. Zig does have support for empowering library users to push coded set

Mentally healthier + seeming to eat more cheese doesn’t NOT mean “eating more cheese makes you mentally healthier” There are established correlations between gut biome and mental health. But correlation is not causation.

Took me a while to find an estimate of the actual average efficiency of ICE cars, and the number I found was “about 20%”. Some places claim the most fuel efficient vehicles are about 40% (again, on a good day in testing conditions). EVs on

Is Linux still a fifth class citizen for swift? The last time I used it (and I admit this was a couple years ago), silly expectations like “my program will behave the same on Linux as it does on Mac” were not being met.

Personally, I do not find that zig differs from other languages all that greatly. I am actually a little curious about the minor and subtle differences, cause I personally did not find that this was the case coming from C, Java, C#, a littl

0.12 is meant to be the version that you can probably stop tracking master. It isn’t stable, but it is.

I don’t really care which functional programming advocate you’re quoting. They’re all liars when they make these claims. You can say SSA, static guarantees, internal mutability, blah blah blah all you want. When third party, not specificall

I have absolutely no idea what data they’re even getting out of this. I am probably more privacy oriented than the next guy, and I’m just not really seeing the pitch here.

by wredue 2y ago
I believe that your interpretation of what’s actually happening is what’s baloney. The fact is that you Haskell people only talk about the optimizations that can sometimes open on immutable data in specific circumstances. What you generally

by wredue 2y ago
You guys can make all the baloney claims about this you want. The day that Haskell stops being 10x slower than languages providing mutable data is the day we can start to seriously entertain your claims.
