I find it strange to call it "slow gaming" but I guess it depends on what you're doing. If you're doing PVP, it feels like one of the fastest versions of that possible.

When ever anyone says they can't find workers, at the end of the sentence there is always an implicit "for the compensation I'm offering".

The entire human population could stand there: each person would have roughly 1.5 to 5.4 square feet of space—less than the size of a single chair. If you actually did get all of humanity in LA it would instantly break out in war.

Me too but e.g. Leptos makes the case that it isn't as important as some of us had imagined: https://youtu.be/4KtotxNAwME?si=cqprHdxU5oYAb0V_

Maybe some day, maybe never. A different, perhaps more important question is, does it matter? https://youtu.be/4KtotxNAwME?si=Egu05co4q7-RsanU

Would you happen to have these templates on Github or public somewhere?

As sad as it makes some version of me to say, the majority of code that gets written every day doesn't need to be good code. I am doing a pet side project right now, completely with copilot. I haven't written a line of code, doc

This, for me, is the actual gain and I don't see a lot of people talking about it: it's not that I finish a project faster the LLMs. From what I've read and personally experienced, it probably takes about as long to complete

I believe this is because England was conquered by the Normans (french speakers). I think it was within the last 100 years or so that the English aristocracy finally stopped speaking French among themselves.

well, if you ignore the current country borders then "German" would encompass a large portion of Switzerland and the Netherlands. So, with that assumption, I would be surprised if Italian had more dialects than German.

I prefer classical music for this. Not "Flight of the bumblebee" type stuff, more like Adagio for Strings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQsgE0L450

Can you say what your development environment was like? I was having 15 minute build times for a pretty small system. Everyone talks about how slow Rust compile times are so I thought that's just how it is. Then, by chance, I ended

This has generally been the case, but a system language like Rust has access to optimisations that C simply won't have due to the compiler having so much more information (e.g. being able to skip run time array size checks because the

How can it not? Experts in C taking longer to make a slower and less safe implementation than experts in Rust? It's not conclusive but it most certainly says something about the language.

>”Game theory optimal" (as poker players like to call it) is not really the optimal strategy. It's the nash equilibrium strategy assuming the other players are also playing a nash equilibrium strategy. As soon as one player dev

No, the best thing is not assume you know better than anyone who will ever ask this. It’s good to mention what the right way is and why but your answer should always include the answer to the question exactly as asked at a minimum.

Again, you’re not answering the person who asked but every person who ever will . Some of them will be asking because the “right way” is not an option in their situation.

Sure, but the issue is that SO was used largely for people working in companies with arcane rules. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gotten one of these annoying “don’t do X, do Y” when I already know this. I have to do X for some reas

Actually the issue you're complaining about is not a Haskell problem, it's entirely a library problem. It so happens that the standard library has a really poorly defined numeric hierarchy at the moment. If you want to fix it ri

Depending on how it’s being counted, I have a regex engine in around 30 lines [1] (the parser is longer). It handles branching, grouping, etc. and it’s run time is proportional to the length of the string being searched (I.e. no infinite
