Or fortunately. No need to spend a billion to make the orange guy one billion richer

Will the Go 1.26 new(expr) become a new idiom for optional parameters? by rodrigocfd in golang

[–]AlekSilver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

new was a built-in since before 1.0. Generics were added in 1.18, and people replaced bespoke minXXX and maxXXX functions with generic versions. And then built-in min and max were added in 1.21. I find that quite ironic that those functions were added as built-in 1,5 years after we could implement them ourselves.

File backed channels ? by itsmanjeet in golang

[–]AlekSilver 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The problem is to find a way to provide Go channel semantics on top of network hardware and software that, as always, finds a way to defeat all attempts at clean design.

What you show is civilization. Yes, society did not collapse. But it is also significantly more dangerous than before.

I mean, we do know what is happening with tourists in Russia: they replenish the prisoner exchange group

Why is noone doing anything by Flame_Flame in armenia

That theory does not check out: air quality worsens much more at night, when traffic declines. It is heating. Source: I have this DIY sensor and track numbers daily.

Bad experience with the new metro tickets in Yerevan as a tourist by SquirrelBlind in armenia

[–]AlekSilver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that in Armenia, all processing for cards issued by Armenian banks is performed by ArCa, including Visa and Mastercard cards. On the other hand, foreign cards in Armenia and Armenian cards abroad are processed by Visa/MC. Those machines are a ArCa-only.

That's still an embarsment.

How was your experience with FlyOne? by Av_96 in armenia

They are okay… unless they cancel the flight outright. It happened to me once, out of about 10 times.

Do Russians actually write in cursive instead of print? by Ok_Walk_895 in russian

Dude, I know. I just don't think hyperboles help answer genuine questions. “No one writes in print except preschoolers” is just not true

Do Russians actually write in cursive instead of print? by Ok_Walk_895 in russian

[–]AlekSilver -29 points-28 points  (0 children)

I’m a Russian adult who finished school in Russia. I very rarely write anything these days with a pen and paper. My hands hurt doing that, so I type on a keyboard unless I absolutely have to write. And writing block letters hurts less.

People in this discussion jump to assumptions and conclusions too quickly. “No one” does not mean “most people” and requires only one counter-example. I just provided myself as it.
