What Crockford did was enable a lot of devs to realize there was a viable development platform built into the most prolific and open network client in the world. For that he should be commended but it should have never been taken as “this is a viable general purpose language”.
I love how after a decade pandoc is still Haskell’s “killer app”. smh
America has a lot of problems but the idea that Americans can afford to be frivolously litigious is hilarious.
Yeah that’s absolutely a thing all over warm weather states in America. It drives me crazy that I try to acclimate to the higher heat and just end up inside with 68° air conditioner settings. Absolutely freezing my ass off. But the reality is that is more middle/ upper class living. If you’re doing manual labor or living in poverty, you know what the heat is actually like.
Austin is the common “island of sanity” that happens with American cities. Is it enough to say in Texas… Not for me.
“30°C is hot” - laughs in Texan
I love that you committed to a fancy Dutch angle
Being a Winnie the Pooh simp?
This shall not stand
I used to over rehearse where if anyone would go off script it would immediately become word soup. Now I just have bullet points and feel comfortable with long pauses up collection my thoughts.
That’s fantastic. So much great content was lost when the original sites went down
I’m on Jerboa currently. I’ve been finding it very useable.
A lot of hidden role games are good for large groups. Lots of interactions, simple rules. Mascerade is great too.
I would argue that ASM isn’t “powerful”. It’s direct. You can access advanced features of a CPUs architecture with the trade off limited portability. Sometimes it’s necessary but power comes from being able to express complex control and data structures in a concise and readable amount of text.
The subjective topic of what “concise and readable” means is where the language wars come in.
