I just recently started using Babashka and it is great, excellent productivity boost for text manipulation scripting tasks.

My last job was mostly C++, my current job is mostly Clojure but I still do a lot of C++ stuff on the side as it is appropriate for some of my side projects. Clojure is so much nicer to work with and this really resonates with me; I'm

This was my first thought when I saw the screenshots of it being sad that it had no memory. One of my favorite shows.

Children sticking around isn't the only option. My mom intends to follow me once I've found a place to settle down in the next few years. I'll give her extra money which should allow her to live quite well on top of what she

I think they mean apps that don't just stop working when you're offline, not apps that are always offline.

Seconding avoid benzos, nearly saw them destroy someone's life and it seems like doctors prescribe them way too easily.

Yeah I meant together, I didn't make that obvious at all. I still think that is a far cry from "no commercial use" though. I agree it seems a little odd, there's probably some kind of a bias for people using those langu

> Within 3 years > Within 7 years What is your justification for these estimates? I've been trying to pay attention to what various experts think (I'm not one) and it seems like far from a foregone conclusion that this will

Eh what? My last job was at a bank, not exactly known for having the most interesting tech. They had several teams that used Scala and I've seen a lot of job listings for roles using Scala. Haskell and Prolog slightly less so but at

I tested this on FF/Chrome/Safari on an M1 Max, couldn't see any difference at all between FF and Chrome but on Safari it was incredibly slow (which actually let me drive the car, that thing turns fast). I also wasn't

Just to be clear I'm not trying to equate child abuse to circumcision or view them as morally equivalent, I just don't think its a stretch to call circumcision mutilation, even if it generally isn't intended to be harmful.

I'm not trying to equate circumcision with child abuse. Most people having their kids circumcised aren't intending any harm, although some proponents (looking at you Kellogg) did believe that it caused harm and promoted it for th

Chopping off body parts without consent? Really? It isn't as bad as FGM but I think it could definitely qualify as mutilation even if it is socially acceptable in the US and Jewish/Muslim communities.

Yeah I think you're definitely right wrt the attitude big studios are taking with their games these days. If they swap to mobile they might pick up a different audience but someone will have to fill the void with quality PC games. If

This is patently absurd. I'm neither trans nor religious but hypothetically I'd much rather announce that I joined a religion anywhere in the US than announce being trans in the small town where my grandparents live today . L

I think this is the answer, I opened Amazon in Firefox where I have an adblocker and the first result was KitchenAid. In Safari w/ no adblocker the entire first row was ads and there was an extra ad above that for spatulas taking up

I'm probably in the minority but pasta and frozen pizzas are about the extent of my cooking skill and there are about dozen excellent restaurants within a 10 minute walk... it isn't good for my wallet.

I'm just mildly annoyed that most languages disallow kebab-case I assume almost entirely so '-' can be used for infix subtraction (and maybe decrement) without having to surround it with spaces... not a good tradeoff imo.

Furthermore, matters defined in s. 847.001 include "Nudity," "Sexual battery," and "Sexual conduct" defined pretty much as you'd expect but without any reference to would-be exonerating literary context. I

Reading, writing, arithmetic... not always science though right? I bet a good chunk of parents don't want evolution taught in schools. A smaller but significant chunk probably don't want climate change taught in environmental sc

On the subject of political graft and schools, my Florida high school purchased *every single student* a pair of cheap earbuds for a *single* audio question on a standardized test everyone in the school had to take. Probably in 2015 or 201

Although it isn't clear I'm assuming the explanation of the second ranking omits some information about it taking cost of living into account.

Best I can tell these new laws apply to all grade levels. What justifiable reason is there for limiting what books high schoolers can access other than "I don't want my kid to come across facts or opinions that might contradict m

The implication of your first claim seems to be that fringe opinions would never become mainstream in society. I think essentially all of human history contradicts that pretty well...

I think the "no need" is referencing the lack of a societal or consumer need, not the "need" of the company to make more money.

So... Microsoft bought 48 or 49% of OpenAI right? Integrating this into Excel would make everyone an excel power user.
