an immutable black hole might as well be a shredder. the OP in the reddit did precisely that. that money is GONE. locked away forever. it has not been transferred to anyone else.
Call me weird, but I'll take callbacks any day over async await.
If it goes too many levels deep, we have to ask what we are trying to achieve and perhaps consider a better approach (a specialized state machine? threads?)
And the US was already having issues in terms of STEM competitiveness...
I believe the term is "decline" or "decadence"...
I do not approve of publicly funding parochial religious schools, for example. This is a bad road to take.
The would-be-theocrats don't even comprehend the damage their wish's fulfillment would bring.
I had the misfortune of attending such a "school" once and found it full of fake curriculi and it set me back a year at a crucial time.
It was a total joke. I attended approximately 8 different public schools prior to that and after that, including some rather lousy ones, and all were superior to these weirdo cult luckily didn't have to spend much time in.
I have issue with the massive cost in other peoples lives you seem to be ok throwing away with such pronouncements.
We have to FIX our system, not make it worse.
The reality of trying to force our entire civilization to commit mass suicide is a slow horrible intensification of all that is wrong with the world.
Please do your part to spread the word to your fellow nihilists. (by definition, not my opinion nor an insult)
except that bitcoin doesn't replace any traditional financial systems. in the real world, crypto holders also have banks and buy and sell cryptocurrencies with/for fiat.
very few retailers of any quality/price/repute sell physical for bitcoin, let alone denominated in fixed prices in bitcoin, even at peak hysterical hype (right now)
apples priced in bitcoin would fluctuate wildly and you wouldn't be able to count on being able to eat any given day of the week buying food denominated in bitcoin.
the reality is that bitcoin is an unregulated security.
It's a volatile investment and it's fluctuations make 'fiat' currencies inflation/deflation pale in comparison.
When do we auto-organize as a species and ditch these primitive blame games and Mutually-Assured-Destruction madness such as competitive wasteful economics systems that cause people to drive hours to a place they don't like to "work at a job" doing something that is useless for the overall group and displeasing for the person doing it, simply due to dumb plumbing not organizing us. Maybe we should ask some machines how to run ourselves... (partially joking, but you know what I mean...Where is our group common sense and ability to hive-mind when we need it?)
I have no notion of what metaphor you are referring to.
In real life, POW is a waste of electricity that produces nothing external to
proving that CPU cycles were wasted, with an ever-increasing difficulty in the case of Bitcoin (getting worse with time, on purpose)
The fate of life on earth depends upon 2 corrupt fossil-fueled obstructionists.
Why is Joe Manchin even in the Democratic party?
His voting record during the Trump admin was atrocious, including his confirmation of Kavanaugh.
Maybe I'm being terribly naive, but I don't see this from a maths perspective at all, I see this as about the shape of data and about memory allocation.
If one increments pointers across an array of data, one should know the stepping size, for example.
How is this (programming/practical) side of the word "type systems" related to formal/mathematical "type systems"?
essentially, serving a website to older devices that are missing the X1 certificate is broken now that the X3 certificate expired yesterday...
or?
(meaning, it's not a realistic strategy to tell clients to update/upgrade, and the cert-expired page makes you look dodgy, and mavericks ain't never getting a chrome higher than 67 and there are tons of people on that still, so...)
Well, either that or polyfill. Transpiling to JS may be a product of other motives (Typescript, Svelte, Elm etc.)
While Ruby is pretty and all, I don't find that I'm enjoying the lie that is ES6, and don't even get me started on classes in JS, etc.
Bottom line, JS isn't my favorite language, but I'm not dying reading/writing ES5, (nor does ES6 look lovely when I know that it's lying to me) and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages...
I'm questioning a lot of the group-think decisions.
