    I would be happy just with a amazon that does not disappear 80% of the results when you apply basic list filters like "cheaper first". I don't even know why that is legal.

    This was from 2018, and google has gotten worse. Do the fines get reapplied for the 8 years that passed while they did nothing? Google has what, 100B+ revenue in EU? This is a once…

    "functionally illiterate" means that while you can read your native language, you will not correctly understand what you have just read. Rates seem to vary state by state, from as …

    I have to come to believe that Go is simple for the compiler , not necessarily for the programmer. `nil` is not simpler than references and Option . lack of enum is complicating my…

    I write purely Go at $dayjob, but I write purely Rust in my projects. I have a huge list of things that I have in Rust that I would like in Go, but I don't have a single thing I am…

    There is an explanation for every one of them, the pointer equality one has code, too. try it with `gcc -O1` and you will get a different result than with `gcc -O0`
