Good link. I think it’s clear that he is the most corrupt president: while other presidents have been guilty of corruption, seeking money from foreign governments and firms via cryptocoins is a level of corruption no other president has met

Difftastic is text-based.

You can be the one to create such a package…
20.
by chalst 2y ago
Yes, since magit allows a call-out to diff and difftastic can be supplied as a binary, but magit allows you to use ediff, and Emacs allows use of tree-sitter, so I don’t really see the point.

by chalst 2y ago
Emacs has a git client, Magit, which can use ediff, the Elisp implementation of diff. Since Emacs is widely used for parsing, and can parse using tree-sitter, Emacs doesn’t seem to benefit from difftastic. But perhaps I’m overlooking some c

The mugging scenario shows that there are risks associated with pairing removal, but the suggestion by lcnPylGDnU4H9OF [1] seems to deal with this particular issue. Are there any other risks? [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2

I would hesitate to say Julia has better support for Python interoperability, since I haven’t tried out Mojo’s support, but this interoperability is a goal of Mojo.

Many do, but some go beyond coherence and tell a story. E.g., https://www.entrances2hell.co.uk/page285.html says > The Cult of Reversible Death wrote of a moonlight-appointment with God (which the devil failed to attend

Julia is an example of a dynamic language that is fast. I would like to see Mojo and Julia compared for interoperability with Python.
