Bun is fundamentally a boundary-heavy system and it also rolls its own version of a lot of things that people typically use via libraries, where unsafe is hidden. (no async, memory arenas, etc). It also uses FFI heavily which requires unsafe.

It also looks like the top 2 maintainers are currently actively working on getting the amount of unsafe down and it's going down quickly.

Yes, age diminishing driving skills certainly is a huge factor but I wonder how much of this age stat is due to the different generation in which they learned to drive.

What's interesting about this is chess.com allows you to stack as many pre-moves as you like but they each cost 0.1s, whereas on lichess you can only have one pre-move which is technically free but maybe not because of delay.

It's still an issue. When online dating, one of the main thing you get from a person's profile is "what are their interests?". Even if it's not explicitly written down, people try to infer based on the pictures.

Oh, a picture him riding an ATV with the boys. Ah, here's one of him fishing with the boys. There he is, happily posing with a normally dangerous but sedated wild animal. Hmm.

You get the idea.

Exactly this. I've been single for four months at 27 and dated a lot during that time and I noticed that the bar is set _so low_ to place yourself as a better candidate than, let's say 80% of other men, that's it's simply scary.

Most men have literally nothing interesting to offer for a relationship. When you look at their situation from an objective point of view it's so obvious why they remain single and yet most are unable to see it. They either have no hobbies, hobbies that are almost exclusively shared by other men and often show no interest in their potential partners' hobbies. A lot of them also spend most of their time in online communities that are almost completely absent from women. They end up having discussion subjects and interests so far away from their dating partners that it turns into an awkward date.

I can't think of a way they can enforce almost anything without annoying a bunch of people with false positives.

If someone has a secondary home like a chalet they go to from time to time, they'd have to pay for a second account?

I am stumped by that person's comment. Waze is superior in every single way for navigation:

Faster adjusting to real-time traffic, better navigation UI, more importantly tells you where polices are but also other various things that are good to know beforehand.

Google maps is still useful to pre-plan a route, get information about businesses, restaurants, opening hours and just better overall building information with street view and such, but I'd never go back to using maps for navigation unless they do exactly as waze does.

you're describing apartments or condos and I was referring to the whole building. In Montreal, the central neighborhoods are mostly made of duplex/triplex/fourplex where one unit is often occupied by the owner and the two others are rental units.

For rental apartments, the most expensive ones are both renovated and in a prime location which is often still a centennial building. Brand new buildings are most of the time outside of these locations.

You build as much new housing as you can afford to, and let older housing filter down to "affordable" levels.

In many larger cities, older housing occupy prime location where the value of the land is twice the value of a new building you could build on it, so all these would never filter down to affordable levels.

They control the issuance of USDT, something they can't do with USD. They sure hope influencers don't immediately convert it to USD and buy other bitcoin or other cryptos with it instead. That way, they keep the USD and the influencer helps pumping the price.

Same. I'm genuinely curious because I have a lot of Quebec friends and ex-coworkers ho got hired by US companies recently and it seems to be more of a Canadian paperwork hoop you have to go through then you're golden.

PHP in 2020 7 years ago

I don't think the person you're replying to said it was not possible with PHP. Just that similarly to other languages where it's just as straightforward as the example you gave, it's not built-in.

Precisely. I recently stripped out my apartment (that I own) completely and redoing the electrical wiring and I have zero interest in installing smart stuff. I just have 4 dimming switches all next to each other that control all the zones, at both ends of the apartment. I can't understand how home automation would improve my quality of life if you factor in the added complexity.

Westbrook does have a good IQ but I can understand why some people could think that.

As for athleticism, I really, really, really dont understand where you are coming from with Ben Simmons lacking in that area. The only thing the guy doesn't have is a mid-range jumper. As for the rest he is a 6'10" point guard, so basically Magic Johnson with maybe a tad more athleticism.
