What concepts do you find interesting, compared to other FP languages?

How would this make the web more dangerous? Its just static file hosting. Already wildly available!

Nonsense. Just because there was no stricly "unifed" (whatever that means) German culture does not mean that German culture does not exist. There is clearly a shared core of culture and ethnicity to all the listed peoples.

But again you can continue with trying to make it seem as if everything is equal to everything else.

I'll leave you with this little thought experiment. If we put a northen German, a Swiss German and a Spaniard in a room, how long will it take for the two germans to realize they have more in common with each other than the spaniard?

Offering birthright citizenship makes the US better than 95% of the other countries. Not worse.

No arguments why its better, just stating it as if its fact.

Most countries do not have it because it creates many preverse incentives (such as anchor babies). This especially in countries which are targets of immigration (such as the US).

So you want to diminish the voting power of the native population through mass immigration?

Tell me how this rhetoric would not radicalize any normal citizen.

Mass deportation is terrible and destructive, but mass immigration is all good and has 0 negative consequences

It has been shown repeatedly in multiple studies (you might have heard a very prominent one from Denmark) that Non-European/Non-Western migrants are a net loss for the economy during their lifetime and also their children are a drag on the economy. Meaning the money spent by the government to support them is never made back (from the working) during their whole lifetime.

So no, most migrant groups are not a big benefit. Especially considering that this is only taking the economy into account. When you take into account the societal disruption and anti-values that they bring with them, then its clear how negative they have been for Europe.

Then you have no idea how floating point works. (Hint: its in the name)

Currency: USD Amount: 99500 Decimals: 5

but it'll bite you incredibly hard if you ever stumble upon an edge case such as working with a partner that has a different implied number of digits for a given currency

Why would that be a problem? You just transform the values when interacting with their API.

How come they don't do the same to Mullvad VPN?

The fact that there's surgeries available for your heart defects means its a path already well trodden.

Can you expand on that? Seems very counterintuitive

The business owners I know who have been successful historically are seeing a 2x improvement and are completely unsatisfied. It's shattered their perspective on what is possible, and they're rebuilding their understanding of business from first principles with the new information.

Why are they not satisfied with the 2x improvement? Could you give an example of the "rebuilding" that you mean?

Portugual, like the netherlands, was a glorified trading network rather than a legitimate empire.

nothing more than a glorified crew in New Jersey

Why is Brendan Eich a POS?

How were criminals the early adopters of Internet, Video streaming and AI?

Virtually all JavaScript engines are written in compiled languages. (Most runtimes for that matter nut just JS)

No, not at all actually. But I had a lot of applications where at somepoint we needed to add storage of currency in the database. It became relevant for billing or other features. This without the app itself being financial in nature.

Personally the lack of a decimal type make SQLite a no-go for me. Its too much of a hassle to do financial operations completely on the application side.

Would Linux count as a project with corpo sponsors?

Why is EF regarded as such a good ORM? I've encountered countless bugs in different repos related to its stateful nature after many years in .NET. Personally I found it completely illogical for my ORM to maintain state. I just want it to hold my schema and build queries.

Did it change during our life time?

Yes, european roads are not as wide, since they make place for proper sidewalks and bike lanes. Another advantage is that narrower roads make drivers drive more carefully and slowly, reducing accidents even further.

Not the same, since if you buy Bitcoin, you don't have partial ownership of the machines used to mine and also these machines being used for a singular purpose which you cannot change.

He means the runtime ".NET CLR". They have the same runtime.

I think in the end step by step functional programming will be widely adopted. Concepts that have a strong theory behind them tend to last longer. Similar to how relational databases and SQL are still the gold standard today.

An Office license is a must in most companies. So it will be there beforehand, you don't have to have a special budget for it.

What does this "law" have to do with conservatism? Seems completely irrelevant and to related to the ideology at all. (Aside from being a skewed and straw-manned view of it)

- Signal: how can you believe it is not controlled once it becomes the mandatory app in the US Gov.

Isn't this a good sign? When the US Gov has enough trust to use it internally and officials are already using it for their communications, would this not mean that the service is truly encrypted.

They could have some sort of switch for it, but the frontend is open-source and that's where the encryption happens.
