I came to the same conclusion after the initial perl intoxication. Stable, regular constructs are much easier to parse and get back to than this pseudo-natural language. My worst confusion is python’s truly unreadable “x if cond else y” con

The usual curse of syntax extensions is that they make a few good things and then a pile of bikeshedded nonsense in the same payload. These two sets differ from person to person, of course. Dedent and object globs are useful imo and should

Not sure I follow the explanation. And apologies cause I’m not that familiar with these texts, but afaik it talks about “soul” here, not information? Words like Brahman, Atman come to mind. In case I mistook it, ignore the above. All knowl

Skeptical readers will note that this trivial approach blocks one type of Google’s ads, but not every type of Google ads. And that’s certainly true. And then proceeds to sweep it under some nostalgy. Nice try ;) To learn what something is

That’s still not your product though. You only bought a licence. Flash your favorite open firmware, enjoy and let regular users who cannot do that avoid permission extortion. The world has needs and issues, it is not spinning around your sk

How do they work in Kotlin? If it’s just: result = co_func() Then that creates an invisible yield point which messes with your “is this a critical section” sense. Suddenly anything may yield and your naive pt.x = getX() pt.y =

Overviews aren’t code though. In code, for me, they don’t pass 80/20 tests well enough, sometimes even on simple cases. (You get 50-80% of an existing function/block with some important context prepended and a comment, let it writ

Are you sure it’s a life changing productivity booster? Sometimes I look at my projects and wonder how would I explain it to an LLM what this code should have done if it didn’t exist yet. Must be a shitton of boilerplate programming for cop

Because nothing motivates them. It’s mostly chinese money but also US. Stop giving them it and find a better use, simple. Or say something like “I’ll buy it, if you do X”. That’s motivation. They will say “nah, if we do X, Y, you just don’t

It may not hold you back that much. It’s always confusing to read an article where the way your mind works is seen as an error. It must work somehow . You cannot operate without simple algorithms or more complex “narratives”. If you ever m

You absolutely can. Moreover, assuming enough technological and cultural evolution in e.g. 1000-10000 years, it will likely be done, if not completely replaced and redesigned. The fact that conditions change doesn’t make your current form i

They must work just well enough. Nature doesn’t strive for an ideal, cause it has no ideas. It’s a semi-working minimum based on another semi-working minimum. A duplicated bone is just infinitely more likely than a completely new organ. And
