Indeed, PV targets will now be able to record themselves physically assaulting PV agents!

The government will never comply with this order. Also, periodic reminder that articles which don't link (or even quote) primary sources are propaganda, not journalism. Here's an a…

I trust you already obtained the proper licenses from your local authorities before designing and implementing a new programming language? And those licenses are on file with the m…

Algebraic effects use delimited continuations (and this appears to match toss/return). Call/cc captures an undelimited continuation. Totally different.

The link has pretty convincing evidence of astroturfing. What I don't understand is why take the sub private instead of deleting the post? That's crazy. Were they concerned deletin…
