Yeah, and they require a place to build. Do you think bridges between the Hawaiian islands is feasible? Report recently from my area. https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/transporta...

You clearly didn't read this. It's about rowing. Not being on a playground.

I had updated a GQL schema and wanted my agent to update the frontend to suit. I told it the server was running, that it could run specific commands to regen types, etc. It got itself in a loop and killed the running backend process, then s

I'd also recommend having a look at the Zig library for Elixir. For simple stuff, you can just inline, but support for pretty complex setups too. Also comes with a built-in BEAM allocator so the runtime properly reports NIF memory cons

The business transaction between me and a restaurant is for the food and service they provide. I pay the restaurant, the restaurant pays the labour. Refusing to tip isn't refusing payment. If it were, I'd be illegal (i.e. theft).

The intent of the policy doesn't match the real-world implementation of users. Users are lazy. Users will alter a single character or digit in the password and call it changed. Most people don't use password managers, and some com

To add to this, you don't need to come up with the game mechanics. I'm taking this approach with making a LiveView-based version of the board game Azul.

Time is a consumable. It is not infinite, and it is unique to each individual. We do not "trade" time in jail between society and an individual. We deny certain freedoms for a period of time. There is no economic equivalent when i

Why is B much better here? It enables the officer to claim they felt threatened when no valid threat existed and then exercise lethal force in self defense (whether or not the threat was valid). I can't think of any reason why someone

Your analogy works as long as there's a machine doing the washing and drying. If you replace the machines with people, it makes much more sense for the function definition to define what is and isn't synchronous. If you have to do

We have a sample repository with a simple, but broken, web application. We ask our candidates to review the code as they would if a coworker had submitted it as a merge request. it gives quite a bit of insight about what aspects they latch
