If you think learning Typescript is too much hassle for JavaScript "safety" you gonna have a heart attack when you find out about Elm[1] (hint: pure functional programming)

[1]http://elm-lang.org/

The hinting is almost secondary to the implicit documentation that a typed language brings.

FWIW D3.js is a dependency of plottable

Fuck Microsoft, I been using Windows all my life but if I could jump to any other operative system with games and software support I would do it in a heartbeat.

Actually that trick creates some residual garbage (the slash and the asterisk would be printed in PHP)

A way to avoid this is to use the HTML comment notation, JavaScript just ignores it (until end of line), so just:

    <!-- <?php echo "-->";

Conflict of interests is not a conspiracy... unless you believe stuff like Fox not covering Republican scandals is a conspiracy (its just Fox being Fox)

Yeah, it may be a lie but not much else.

You were claiming "they could just as well package into, say, an install CD image" which is likely not going to happen, so he was just giving an example.

The perfect spam filter Gmail has its probably based on data and ML analysis, not a simple software you can put on a CD and install on some little server; so even if someone who works there wanted to help you they probably can't do it.

And the worse is it all is that _their_ children will continue to kill ours for reasons they think justifiable, and despite being truth or not it will cost them all their lives.

... But then you would have to count the bias against single founders and all the investments they didn't get thanks to that bias. And also count all the accelerators than discarded them for this issue.

Plus, there is also the "fake co-founder" tactic some people use in order to avoid this bias from others; so you would have to count those as well, but that data is not public. So yeah, I think you are trying to count the uncountable.

Violence is the only thing that will continue to go on if we keep asking for justice, so our children and grandchildren will die fighting wars we could have stop just because we hold that word in such high stem.

...I don't want to ever have to work with your code.

I'm Colombian, and they want more than victory, they want more violence, that's why the propaganda against the agreement is lead by the infamous paramilitary-involved ex-president Alvaro Uribe.

[Citation needed]

FARC had been taking heavy losses but there was no end in sight.

The state of business when Santos took government was hundreds of killings per month, which has been reduced in a 90% since the first agreements: http://colombiareports.com/how-the-farcs-failed-ceasefire-di...

If only the ones who are alive today thanks to the reduction of violence had a HN account, but they are the poor in the rural areas, not the computer scientists of La Javeriana.

Actually we just had a major of the capital (Bogota) of the country wich was part of M19 and he is still alive, so I'm not sure which revenge you talk about in that case.

Many of the victims actually want the want the war over with no revenge in mind, as you can see in many posts going viral through the country (https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=947235368719875&id=100...)

I'm living in Colombia as well, and the fear of the people is mostly about impunity not about becoming Venezuela 2.0. The USA gov doesn't fear another Venezuela, that's why they support this agreement.

The fear mongering as been done by a self-proclaimed enemy of the current president, the ex-president Alvaro Uribe. Wich has been involved in many paramilitary scandals but somehow he is still free (despite many of his close friends being not)

By the way deaths by war have been decreased in a 95% since the first agreements with FARC.

Same here, plus I think the parent brakes are noise, can the compiler just know that the switch statement ends on last case?

...yeah, lets pretende Alzheimer and every other brain disease directly related to age doesn't exist.

As Wikipedia points out neuroplasticity is "an umbrella term that describes lasting change to the brain throughout an individual's life course. "

This is about changing active neurons in matter of hours/days, without necessarily being lasting, just induced ones.

Or just maybe fixing the brain after too many years becomes harder (less viable) than just creating a new brain (a baby). Just like old cars are disposed instead of fixed... Or in programming terms: just like building something from the source code is more viable than directly fixing a binary.

OMG I already exhibit extreme indifference to human life; I guess I already have half of the requirements for the death penalty.

...just like thousands of people on every industry does: https://www.opensecrets.org/revolving/top.php?display=I

If you didn't want this to happen perhaps you should make it illegal?

Actually it would have been more tragic in almost any other car, because when people turn unconscious driving they sometimes crash against other vehicles.

Just like we now rely on babies to call 911 for emergencies since we heard about one successfully doing it once.

Seriously, this is the worst kind of strawman, pretending reading about a single case of something will change how people behave in an emergency.

You can always call the hospital from the car to tell them your emergency and mention them your plates.

I stand corrected.

In many countries lobbing is illegal, so in those places they will need to send "gifts" instead, or well just bribes

But your Facebook, Twitter, Tinder and Google Maps apps already have access to that location data. To be honest of all the aforementioned I think Pokemon Go is the less likely to use that information for evil.

Even when the military runs an election soon after taking power?

For democracy to exist the "demo" part must persist. So no, I'm not.
