I can already see this doesn't have connection pooling which all those ORMs he listed have without you knowing what a connection pool is it just works, and scales, doing that on your own is not easy.

Just that, it is, I've been banned before, for even lighter things...

I also don't live in the west, rather the global south, in a not so allied country.

When in Europe and in the US. You'll get something like this on twitter, and obviously you cannot access the site either:

@ActualidadRT's account has been withheld in Portugal, Finland, Sweden, Ireland, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Germany, Greece, Romania, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Austria, Luxembourg, Latvia, United Kingdom, Denmark, Lithuania, Croatia, Estonia, Cyprus, France, Spain, Belgium in response to a legal demand. https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/tweet-withhel...

That's what it is, but okay, I'll probably get banned here for saying that anyways :), the free world woo!

More propaganda, listen to the other side... oh well it's banned everywhere.

If you have ever used "GPT" (I guess they meant "ChatGPT") you know that's not true, the grammar and it's way too colloquial / lazy for it to be generated by it

Unless you're in florida and you get run over by a car: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/04/ron-desantis-anti-ri...

There are protest everywhere, west or east, don't be ignorant.

This is propaganda and you don't even know it... People get silenced in the US every day because they have a different opinions on current events, for example the US proxy war with Russia.

I always noticed when certain amount of decades pass it's okay to say certain things, like "Allende was assassinated by the CIA", but back then you'd get persecuted to even mention that.

Yes, when it doesn't matter you can say whatever you want, god bless the USA... Because of opinions like yours is that America is the empire who gets the "Okay" to be the police of the world, and it's terrible at that.

If you really didn't work with GTK2 then there's no way you can understand the problem, thus your comment.

Can it parse emails? Obviously that's hard.

I think the only reason is that they're very different, if you define them:

    type when expression -> block

    if expression -> block

For parsing works better, for programmers is better since they don't confuse both concepts, and in general pattern matching isn't the same as a if condition or a switch.

I think the difference is when you start pattern matching on tuples and other types that you cannot do a simple `if ident.isinstanceof(type) ->`.

For example in Elixir you can do:

    def ident(param = {:key => true}):

This will only match when the param type is not only `map`, but also contains a key named `:key` and its value is `true`.

In the end though, it's syntax sugar (but everything is if you put it that way classes are syntax sugar).

Thank you, 'cause I don't wanna do the wrap command thing they do. Besides that, this is a great idea.

Thank you! I needed this one, how fun, I did this when learning Haskell, now I can do it with Rust.

Where did you go to school? And how come every college educated (mostly in the US) developer I've met has never done that before...

Yeah I never got it... I was careful but never as careful as anybody else. In fact subpar care for many...

Well Nim also has `const` the difference is that `const` must be evaluated in compile time, but `let` is just to prevent reassignments, more info: https://nim-lang.org/docs/tut1.html#constants which is different than what JavaScript does.

You don't understand what "strongly typed" means... I give you a hint, `"1" == 1` is a type error in Python but "okay" in JavaScript because this one is "weakly typed", you're confusing "dynamic typing vs static typing" with "strongly typed vs weakly typed".

How's the electric heater and the electric blanket work without power?

Well, this argument falls whenever you try to use Bitcoin P2P (user to user shouldn't care where the coins come from) or with P2P exchanges like Bisq or Local Bitcoin.

Now that's a different universe than what OPs lives (just by the fact Bitcoin goes up and down in fiat value would be enough to make it "non-fungible" by that logic), but I can assure you many of us exists.

And I'm not even mentioning how Lightning Network fixes this as well, making coins very hard to impossible to track.

> AirPods are wonderful products. But I just wish these annoying gripes would go away.

What's wonderful about all that? Our fanboyism is re-defining the word "wonderful", Annoyence 4 and 3 made me think AirPods broke and they happen so frequently, I also have the Sony wh-1000xm4 and I cannot configure the mic without degrading my audio quality. I'm back to wired, I have a Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO, and none of these overhyped products match its quality, I can live with the cables :)

Oh, so don't do current buzzwords but past ones like Big Data are okay.

And if you wanna learn about distributed systems nothing better than Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency based on a P2P protocol.

Sorry but you're wrong, all those buzzwords have their merit and there are real impressive and innovative companies or projects built on those hypes, not all is "worthless" or a "scam". Don't let your ignorance blur your mind, learn about them, use them, have your own ideas cause this post sounds like you've been reading way too much HN.

Wow, I can't believe how accurate this story is, same thing happened to me I think summer 2016 but I thought it was because our execs were idiots not that IBM would treat every company like that... CTO calling me to his office to talk to IBM on their personal phone, he was the only one who wanted Watson (this was a healthcare company, I was VP of Eng). And yes, they were obsessed with putting their logo everywhere, and as soon as we heard it was so expensive, we had to tell our CTO to chill, we stopped, cause you know you can hire at least 2 devs for that money.
