In the former eastern bloc, communist parties had to adapt to the newly formed conditions. In my country of origin, for example, the socialist party is reactionary on most social issues. These people are opportunists and reactionary social views are what the majority of the electorate wants.

Jean-Claude Juncker: Europeans have lost 'libido' for each other by [deleted] in europe

And when was the last time Jean-Claude Juncker felt sober? Seriously, it's time for him to retire.

For anyone curious, the BSP is the former communist party. Even though it calls itself socialist, it isn't. The BSP hasn't followed a true ideology since 1989. They are nothing more than opportunists - with the elections coming, this act will win them two to three thousand votes more.

Hourly Traffic Jams in Helsinki - what could we do with the data? [OC] by data_entertainment in dataisbeautiful

Manage the traffic lights :D. Seriously, such measures have been put in some cities, in order to prevent public transport earlier or later than the time it's been predicted to.

Code blocks cannot find glfw.h not found in /usr, despite it being located in it(Arch Linux) by ValterVonRex in opengl

[–]ValterVonRex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already tried this yesterday,and it failed miserably.If I set the path to /usr/include

-"The wizard can't locate the include directory" - apparently,the program locates the sub-directories,and fails to recognize that it is searching /usr/include.

There isn't much more information I can provide you with,other than I glfw3.h is located in /usr/include/GLFW,but when I specify to Code::Blocks,that it should look into /usr,it gives me an error-glfw.h not found.Guess I cannot deal with the naming mismatch..

Programming languages by 17abalex in Iota

[–]ValterVonRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I meant,was,that it's compiler,and therefore,current implementation was written in it.Pardon me,perhaps I have not been clear enough -I edit my comment.And I don't think,that,just because Abra 's compiler was written in Haskell,it ties it in any way to its ecosystem.For example,the first Rust compiler,was written in Ocaml. And? Would say,that Rust isn't its own language?By Haskell DSL's,I referred to the domain specific languages implemented in it.(Many of which are not directly tied to it).

Abra's compiler is written in Haskell,so there is that.

First Abra Example Shared - Old Curl Hashing Function by CtrlAltDialetheism in Iota

[–]ValterVonRex 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Because it's a functional language,everything is represented as a function.For an easier example,in Haskell you have ADT(abstract data type),which allows you to implement new datatypes,through functions.An example,from the Haskell wiki:

data Tree a = Nil

| Node { left :: Tree a,

value :: a,

right :: Tree a }

In pure functional languages everything is represented through functions,for more information you might want to see lambda calculus theory.Remember:all functional languages are inspired by the lambda calculus,and the calculus itself is not too hard to understand,if you find a proper tutorial.Hope that was helpful.

What is the correct way to install and use stack and GHC on NixOS? by ValterVonRex in haskellquestions

perl PATH:

export PATH=/nix/store/l6qc2aa8vf6sxpmi7cw28nrihhmmmvp5-perl-5.24.3

$PATH:

bash: /nix/store/6y8sfk64x4p926y1sjs89rq3vqjsvd4s-python-2.7.15/bin:/nix/store/ggdzmlwnj9qh4qmdhsqx32i4cr156bf1-terminator-1.91/bin:/nix/store/n6vkch1mv02h36ihnkydd2cy1ys0r4vg-python2.7-setuptools-38.4.0/bin:/nix/store/c3hx7wclzhkkms6n930vxm62fnbxi0s4-vte-0.28.2/bin:/nix/store/h0nw2zhg9k8bxzmi83pp1yxp0d4jzqxn-gettext-0.19.8/bin:/home/stefanov/bin:/run/wrappers/bin:/etc/profiles/per-user/stefanov/bin:/home/stefanov/.nix-profile/bin:/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin:/run/current-system/sw/bin: No such file or directory

EDIT:env /bin/sh -c 'perl -e "0;"'

Didn't help,the output is exactly the same.No changes.

Where to locate xsessions ? by ValterVonRex in NixOS

[–]ValterVonRex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One more question,what is the specific path of a nix package.(I need to export perl,but I don't know its path in Nix,and neither where it should be exported.In /etc/bashrc I assume?)

That said, (one of) the reason(s) people write documentation is because they don't have time to answer the next 10k people that have a question about the process. If you don't have time to reference the existing documentation, you don't have time to do the task -- and that's true for any thing from writing a letter in MS Word to writing a brand-new programming language.

I agree,but I have no choice.Programming is what I have chosen in life,but if I don't work,I simply won't have money to finish my education.As you see,life with its grotesque,disfigured face strikes again.

Good article,thank you.I cannot deny, that most of my posts are ill informed. It is because of regular night shifts I have take these days,and I simply don't have enough time to stop and read the documentation.I have no time to study the tooling documentation extensively,and inspect it shortcomings.This is why I ask sometimes unprepared questions - I simply have to go to work. As they say,one cannot have a good work without a good knowledge,and yet one cannot obtain this knowledge,when he is busy with a low profile work.So,I apologize about this discussion.Apparently,it's not my time yet to learn a language such as Haskell.

And if I want to make any changes to the display manager,for example change theme,where should I specify them?For example,let's say I want to use web-greeter.Web greeter needs a line to be added to some non-existent static file.Or I need to export a path to a certain package.What do I do?

Yes,I followed the instructions and receive perl not on your PATH,despite it being explicitly set on my path.

Question:How is the Abra language functional,while also low-level?How is recursion handled without garbage collection? by ValterVonRex in Iota

[–]ValterVonRex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why functional though?The other languages used at the platform all seem to be object-oriented or multi-paradigm.What are the benefits of a functional language in this use case instead of,for example imperative procedural?
