I believe there are tradeoffs which is why this doesn't exist. Isn't the compile speed of Go so good because it's type system is much simpler?

> Point is that this tactic works only when the downtown is so established and so dense that people are going to go anyway even if parking is hard, like Manhattan. Or the facilitating of cars has now made it more unattractive for people

That's super interesting and I am convinced by the dbfiddle but is not very intuitive or well documented? https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/hash-index.html

I didn't take the parent comment to be dismissive or false advertising or that the parent commenter is even that upset about anything. It's just constructive criticism. The original comment says they will "probably read it&qu

It’s definitely a bit annoying and verbose in Java but I think creating an interface to support testing is a net positive. That interface is the specification of what that concrete class requires it’s dependencies to do. I think all the dep

The idea that LLMs are amazing at comprehension but we are expected to read original documents seems contradictory to me? I’m also wary of using them as editors and losing the writers voice as that feels heavily prompt dependent and whether

I never gelled with how SQLC needs to know about your schema via the schema file. I'm used to flyway where you can update the schema as long as it's versioned correctly such that running all the sets of flyways will produce the sa

The maths says unlikely. Kinetic energy=0.5mv^2 The two variables are orders of magnitude smaller in one scenario, and the function grows quadratically.

Bringing up these points when talking about improving urban transit is harmful. These points always appear in reaction to urbanist policy and all of a sudden care about the minority transit user. The problem is that the assigned proportion

Is their existence just speculation or is there mathematical / empirical observations that suggest they exist we just don’t know about them? Is it guaranteed, or highly likely, that one exists we just haven’t found it?

There is definitely space for an opinionated set of libraries and boiler plate code for golang projects like this. Having said that, I’d bet that the go community consensus is that you build one out yourself and reuse it. So most times I en

You guys are lucky in the NL that you have the _option_ to bike, drive, public transport. Maybe driving is still the fastest but the others are still treated as first class citizens. In the US you couldn’t realistically bike anywhere nor do

Slightly off-topic and maybe against the typical viewpoint of the site, but if they spent this much money on bike lanes, e-bikes and public transport, self driving cars (and all cars) would get much better.

How do you enforce that rule? It’s not always easy to pick your flight and aircraft like that (without a lot of money). I’ve got a flight with a national carrier and it’s on a 777; a tried and trusted aircraft and airline so that’s decent r

I've been thinking about this recently also. I can't think of any downsides off the top of my head but I might be blinded by the idea? Can you?

I don't think you read the article, or if you did you didn't understand it. The idea isn't books themselves are good or bad, it's that the same book can be good or bad depending on who you are. Maybe that's a surfac

The only trouble I have with all of this is that I became who I am by being obsessed with my computer. I’m fairly confident many people on this site would not have become software engineers if not for playing hours of counter strike for mou

As much as all the suggestions of us not existing before and that our selves are an illusion etc. are comforting. They don't answer the fact that I find being alive really really really good. I don't want that to stop; I don'

Comforting, but being a wave is the cool part. The composition of our parts is what makes us regardless of whether or not they carry on existing. Is a car still a car when the engine, wheels and chassis are separate?

Close but no cigar, that deontology begs the question _why_ should we not murder people. Utilitarianism gives a consistent, albeit simple, answer. Note that I probably agree with you, but the solution isn’t as simple as you think.

I think the point is that the "how to fix my panasonic..." videos don't exist anywhere else. Sure you could work it by googling "panasonic manual pdf" out but a lot of the times someone has had the exact same issue

This seems like good library design. As annoying as it is, it means the things you can use are well tested and supported. What was your solution to this? Parse the things the library didn't?

I think the sentiment is that order and organisation is helpful in achieving goals and cultivating a good working environment as opposed to a big mess. Analogies, just like abstractions, are leaky.

It's the reduction of attention-span. Can't have critical thinkers if they can't focus for more than 15 seconds at a time. I've noticed a lot of people hold conservative views despite growing up fairly liberal because a

Agreed. This quote stuck out to me. You either have a natural aptitude for medicine or you think the grass is greener on the other side. Maybe Dunning-Kruger effect. In any case, devote some time to the hard stuff. It will pay off.
