After having done Scala for a few years, it's finally a pleasure to be able to read and understand a thread like this. FP gains are real. Anyone who tells you otherwise doesn't know what FP is. To anyone out there who isn't o

You should totally do it. You can do it from the comfort of your own home now.

Completely agree. It's like engineers consistently fail to recognize that users generally don't care about the internals. If it doesn't LOOK like FB why use it?

If you value your mental health and your earning potential, you'll avoid Perl. So many better languages with better mental models. And I say this with a decade of Perl experience. Don't suffer from the blub paradox.

A loss of local reasoning. You don't know which functions will touch the variable and when. You might know at a high level on paper, but you won't have clean, easy-to-read and easy-to-predict life times. Then you'll have race

More moderation. More value judgements (and actions) need to be taken against content that is deemed unsavory. Bans, etc. Higher barriers of entry. The right to comment and occupy mind space is given away too easily. Penalize new accounts,

I would love an online forum with aggressive verification. It would really weed out the noise.

Now that I'm on the side of "I know what a monad is", let me just say 95% of what people say monads are is complete trash and unhelpful. This includes calling them "semicolons". I don't think this analogy sets

Yeah. I think watching it split a line of Stalkers into two flanks that isn't done with a rectangular selection is crazy unfair. I think you're saying does it suffer from occlusion during selection. Based on how APIs typically wor

Everything about AlphaStar is typed and discrete. It has perfect inputs because it uses an API (and does not read pixel data). Human limitations that AlphaStar shares: - Data that requires the camera to see (e.g. enemy location, enemy HP) -

You wouldn't be the first person to say this. But it only proves that the unit isn't useful __ as piloted by AlphaStar __. Based on the initial AlphaStar against TLO/Mana, you would think that Stalkers are insanely OP and the

Its API allows it to select units arbitrarily from anywhere (regardless of camera). Camera vision only controls the specificity of data it sees for on-screen units.

The correct terminology would be "control groups". The configuration of control groups is visible in replays; AlphaStar's replay data does not have any control groups in it. Though, via its API, it is able to select arbitrary
