You are that guy in early 1900s who would rather ride a horse than get in a car because cars "continued to make him uneasy."

No, it's not the "same as most other languages". C and C++ are actually the only mainstream languages that suffer from UB to this extent. The fact that, in practice, with Rust you …

We are nowhere near that inflection point!

First, he didn't call the "crash()" function, he called the "unwrap()" function. The fact that they decided to call the crash function "unwrap()" is not the OP's fault, it's the la…

> I don't understand? Really? You didn't understand me? That's weird, seeing as you claim to be able to understand none other than God. Contradiction > I've mentioned Aristotle and…

First you repeat the claim that fine tuning does not commit you to a religion, and then you keep appealing to religion all the way throughout. That's self-refutation at its finest.…

They are both goddidit, just dressed up differently (slightly so). There is no baggage. You were trying to sell goddidit here as an "explanation" that should merit the same conside…

Youdidit is an explanation, because it doesn't terminate the inquisition. You can then ask what caused you, then what caused the thing that caused you, and so on until you get to t…

That's quite rich, coming from somebody who took a hard line stance, used an abrupt term, put very little effort in and shut down the discussion by calling me a "troll." That said,…

Saying "because God did it" as an answer to any question has the same value as saying "because pixel cooked the music". If you want to consider those two groups of words "explanati…

>Well, it explains why the universe is fine-tuned, if you buy the argument. No it doesn't. Goddidit is not an explanation. >Yep, just like any other answer to the question, since i…
