Line drawings work because they represent the centers of symmetry for surfaces and volumes. They trigger the same center-neurons that the original shape would. A hand could appear …

Strawman attack. I didn't mention mining; anyone can purchase crypto. If you prefer to support the fiat thugs by holding into their tokens, be ready to pay the price.

Early crypto adopters are freedom minded people. I have no problem with a new economic system where the wealthiest are the most freedom-oriented. If crypto ever replaces the curren…

> On PoW this would be like an attacker's mining rig burning down. A rig burning down will undermine the network's security (as less electricity/capital is invested in securing it)…

This has nothing to do with my point. Law exists to establish peace and consensus. Contacts are the most basic construct enabling modern life in a crowded society. Reinterpreting c…

Examining this case from a "similarity to employee" perspective neglects a crucial factor: the expectations between the parties at the time of contract. It's patently obvious no Ub…

FP didn't invent immutable data, or mathematical functions. It just makes it easier to use them for some domains, while complicating others. Imperative programs can have isolated, …

Glad to hear there's commercial interest for Nim!

Didn't expect otherwise. You'd use a logical response if you had one. My comment is a direct response to the OP who implied FPs are going to "take over". I'm being downvoted probab…

Debugging and (semantic) renaming. As said, this is the minimum requirements I pose on any language for production use. Nim in VS Code lacks both. There's some limited debugging su…

You'd be more convincing providing a substantial response instead of referring me to "investigate". I've used FP extensively, and they all make mutation very hard, by design. Do yo…

The ability to change value by ref is crucial to most real-world apps. This is not surprising, as those apps are modeled to represent a real, dynamic world. Functional languages te…

D & Nim (especially Nim) are very appealing from a language perspective, but the lack an IDE undermines the advantages they bring. I personally won't consider using a language for …

Where Mindustry falls short for me is where once the waves are over, you're forced to leave your base and start all over. I'm not motivated to invest in optimization if the product…

There's no real drop, but number manipulation. They just label you as "healed" if the tumor doesn't return after a some short period of time, which gets shorter by the year. Actual…

The entire medical field is based on opinion and wizardry. We're sicker and weaker than ever. I've healed myself from various conditions by going carnivore. Take it or leave it.

Cancer is not a disease, but a state of overall body deterioration. You can't fix it; only the body can fix itself. Stop attacking it with carbs and plant oils, and give it the fue…

Also, forgot to mention, that in some analyzers, even if you have no actual code change, the symbols change meaning, and then you're forced to recreate the tree regardless, because…

The problem with immutability in a rapidly mutating environment is that the theory clashes with reality. Anytime a leaf node changes, all its ancestors have to be replaced, instead…

> the overall size of your code has increased a lot over time, causing performance issues due to issues that have existed for a long time, but weren't being felt yet. Not really. A…

I'm not using ReSharper, and never have. The editor simply gets slower every version, and now it's come to the point where I seriously consider downgrading.

While the rewrite enabled faster development of the language as a whole, it also gradually destroyed the IDE's performance. The editor in VS 2019 is simply unworkable. I blame this…
