For sure. I didn't mean to derail the thread or tell you how you feel, just share what I think is an interesting aspect of assault as defined in common law. But your subjective experience here is exactly what the law means to recogniz

The gist of your point is 100% correct. I just want to point out that under the common law definition of assault (and i have no idea what definitions are in effect in SF), the fact that the person calmly ignored them points that this might

A tuple (ordered pair commonly called) is `(x,y)`. The standard set theory definition underpinning this is that `(x,y)` is shorthand for the set of two elements `{ {x}, {x, y} }`. Where the "first coordinate" is the set with one e

I read the article but either missed it or perhaps it was not included, but what is the result of the violation? Just not being invited back in future years? Does it only apply if the same sponsor puts on the conference?

have done this lots of times. (if (test) (then) (else)) (if true #_(test) (then) (else)) (if false #_(test) (then) (else)) makes it quite simple to leave the tests in. Also, quite easy to raise forms (structurally raise) an

I would purchase today except there doesn't seem to be any screen options higher than 1080. I can't go back to 1080 after years of 4k monitors and mbp retina for work and x1 carbon 2k screen on personal laptop.

The article mentions that they rarely had elements, not that they were rarely used. They might have been tested for membership in lots of hot paths. There's no way to know. And I bet a lazily-instantiated set might take up even more sp

How can you use hooks right now? The standard is reagent which compiles down to classes which don't work with hooks. I think reagent has given a functional react and hooks style programming for years but now is a little behind the curv

Why? How should we decide to spend the resources it orbit Neptune? Why not Saturn or Jupiter; why not land on a comet? Why not put a human on the moon again or perhaps spend the money or medical research or nuclear fusion. What about Neptun

I read that message to mean clojure/core.[library] and not clojure.core. It's a criticism of the slower development pace and low visibility that libraries like match, logic, combinatorics, test.check, data.zip, rrb-vector, cache,
