Comparing languages with types to languages without types is like comparing conservatism to liberalism. Less rules = more change. How much of your newfound liking for typescript can be attributed to 'realizing' it's better an

Never since I'm not American, but if I were I'd use a calculator. I think this is primarily bad for kids who have to do miles to feet conversion in math problems. It could even be lowering math scores, who knows.

I agree, but the odds of switching the default base to either is extremely low.

It's not great. We have a base 10 number system so everything should be in powers of 10. Not too familiar with my 528 multiplication tables.

This comment is not going to look great when/if the term 'Han Supremacy' becomes recognized as hate speech

Sorry, my han supremacy leaked through. I would have just spray-painted the han supremacy equivalent of a swastika onto a few walls, but there's no such thing. No Chinese KKK to join either. We really are lagging behind the west!

You referring to hanzi as kanji is more or less the same as someone referring to a chinese person as a japanese person.

First of all, you're looking for the word 'equivalent', not corollary. Secondly, a talented lawyer could make a convincing legal argument for anything. The holocaust was legal. So really, the morality of the act is everything

Okay, but in this case I'm not saying there's whataboutism in your argument. The point I'm trying to make is that if you're powerful enough, you can make human rights abuses and then get away with it scot-free and that A

Download the league client if you want to be scared straight about ember. Resource usage gradually ramps up until by the 5th game the client is using more RAM than the game itself.

The problem is not past sins, its past sins that have yet to be atoned for. Conditions for Native Americans are still inexcusable up to this day.

Supposedly educated? That pretense has all but fallen off. The only difference between here and reddit is that people THINK they're educated.

You're not addressing the point about immigration laws not being universally recognized as moral and just. What about child migrants? You're meaning to tell me that its morally just to intern preteens because they broke your immig

What is the difference in real terms between the border camps and forced labour camps? The labour? Taking bets that these camps introduce forced labour like the Nazi camps did. Odds stop at the decade. https://www.theatlantic.com

If puppet governments don't count as colonialism, then the British were not very colonial and the Japanese did not colonize Manchuria.

The Japanese were interned during WWII, illegals are in camps now, and the Chinese will likely be soon. Puerto Ricans STILL can't vote. Its important to build your argument from sturdy facts, so that big bad reality can't huff and

Also, quite amusing you gave it a grade of A+. Can you define your scale? What constitutes A+ and is that the highest rating? Is this really the best example of projection you've ever seen?

I think this is precisely the problem. Sure, you can make incremental improvements to existing systems, but what if all existing systems are bad? Once in a while, you have to design a totally new system based on concepts and metaphors that

Han supremacy? Laughably absurd. Just because some other cultures have a history of thinking they're better than everyone else doesn't mean that every culture does. Accounts of what China and the West thought of each other survive
