When I scroll down to select a different color for my next stroke, the canvas often resets.

Edit: or rather undoes the last stroke (which looks like resetting when it goes from 1 to 0).

Ok, then back up a step: Why distribute the power to vote on the basis of people’s fundamental equal dignity instead of descending into warlord-driven feudalism?

Two things that are necessary are both necessary. That doesn’t mean one collapses into the other.

Tangential, but this being a nearly word-for-word translation of “black hole fear” made me realize how odd it is that we insist on latinizing these things.

Information wasn’t what those voters lacked.

50%? No, that’s for high wages. And previous taxation is irrelevant: we as a society get to choose what is taxed, and there’s no inherent reason why only a single tax should apply to someone. Sales taxes, for example (which disproportionately burden those with less wealth) are paid out of one’s already-taxed income.

Presumably because it hasn’t yet been published?

FTA:

I wouldn’t imagine most people consider anchovy paste a sauce?

I think one factor is the lack of variation. Sure, a copywriter might use those techniques as a hook, but there’s far more content using them paragraph after paragraph after paragraph than I’ve ever seen before.

You might also reframe how you read those comments. Perhaps when people are labeling a piece as “written by AI,” they’re just conveying that they perceive it to use the same “voice” that LLMs use, and judge that voice negatively. Sometimes people say things non-literally and don’t need proof.

It’s the fake drama. Punchy sentences. Contrast. And then? A banal payoff.

The abstract refers only to “sun exposure,” but it really did focus on sunbathing:

> Four predetermined questions were posed regarding sun exposure: (i) How often do you sunbathe during the summertime? (never, 1−14 times, 15−30 times, >30 times); (ii) Do you sunbathe during the winter, such as on vacation to the mountains? (no, 1−3 days, 4−10 days, >10 days); (iii) Do you use tanning beds? (never, 1−3 times per year, 4−10 times per year, >10 times per year); and (iv) Do you go abroad on vacation to swim and sunbathe? (never, once every 1–2 years, once a year, two or more times per year).

Most people who use a keyboard aren’t using it for c like languages.

I’d bet 99% of professional developers have never peeked at kernel source code or built their own device drivers.

I think you’re taking “necessary” literally, whereas the author is posing a question about morality.

Why do you imagine that =1931 wouldn’t be equally confusing in some future decamillenium? Arabic numerals have only been around for (charitably) 0.12 decamillenia. Sorry, =.12 decamillenia.

NSDR, rather—Non-Sleep Deep Rest.

Why on earth should your brand new account be considered trustworthy when it comes to commenting on either party?

Is a lightweight easy-to-read plain text markup language the right tool for that job?

Not that it couldn’t be trivial in the abstract, but I’m struggling to imagine a use for a nested list item containing a table of blockquotes. It doesn’t seem at all surprising that a tool wouldn’t anticipate that.

Of course it’s not a given as to any particular person, but regardless, it’s the right presumption.

And yes, of course there are things outside your control. Is that really “equally worthy” of your consideration and energy?

For what it’s worth, I don’t think there’s much about Gleam’s design that is specific to “the functional patterns the BEAM was built for.” If you’re getting stuck in abstraction hell, consider asking the community for advice on what would be more idiomatic.

The article admits that the 700k figure “assumes the worst-case scenario that you take the high valuation of the financial authorities (factor 13.75) as base valuation for your exit tax. Instead, you could also find someone to assess the real value of your company, which is likely lower…”

A reasonable person could absolutely think it’s fair to impose a very high exit tax on someone who doesn’t want their books examined even when it would save them money.

Perhaps a stack-based language like Uiua would be well-suited.

Might be a case of ginned up accusations of “poor management” to cover for political animus.

What makes you think things need to be special in order to be pushing toward the future? A lot of the work of building something better is incremental and not especially innovative.

It found it helpful that it was presented that simply. The point isn’t what else is or isn’t deductible, it’s that engineering salaries went from being deductible to being amortized.

Learning a bit more than “absolutely nothing” about Erlang would make a conversation more productive. The Wikipedia page [0] has some material relevant to your question under the “‘Let it crash’ design philosophy” heading.

Indeed. But given the ratios between the other five numbers and the waterlogged six, do you think it’s even remotely plausible that the water isn’t doing anything? For it to not be necessary, you’d expect that the die comes pre-loaded.

Is the bias from having more or fewer pips just as strong as the bias introduced by the water?
