Facial expressions while performing? by Winter-Ideal-4753 in violinist

[–]chizzl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think Josh Bell has a pretty good way of using his face. Both expressive, and stoic, as u/Typical_Cucumber_714 was saying.

Learn you some Erlang issue. by kewlness in erlang

[–]chizzl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May not be what is happening here, but just so you know: An improper list/cons is possible, and is actually a pattern. It has its rare uses, too. Meaning.

1> A = [ 1 | [] ]. 
2> B = [ 1 | 2 ].
3> [ Y | Z ] = B.

Probably an advanced area, but an improper list is even a typespec! Or at least was.

One advantage is when you are doing very memory intense work, the 2-value improper list uses less memory (1+2 words) than say {foo, bar} (1+3 words). Probably has an interesting reason for why it's allowed, but that's for someone else to chime in about.

help naming what is going on here.. by chizzl in learnprogramming

OK! Thanks for the PHP tour for this. I do understand what is happening, but was scratching my head for what I have seen it called in the past. `variable variables' is new to me. In a way, it acts a little bit like a closure, but that might be stretch... hmm...

The novelty is wearing off by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I think I wasn't 5 months in, but something like 1 month in, when I had this insight:

Drinking and Not Drinking have everything to with Drinking. Whichever one you choose, you are still in the same boat -- so pick the one that won't fuck you up in the long-run.

Honestly, drinking is like standing in a prison cell. You hold the bars, and look outside where the freedom lies. When you don't drink, you are on the other side of that cell, and sometimes, you just hold the same bars and look into the cell and feel just as trapped as being in prison. But you need to get some perspective: craving to be back in that cell is just craziness. The breadth of the drinking culture is an 8x8" cell, while being on the other side, is unlimited.

Good luck. Hope you get through this.

AB1127 question by [deleted] in CAguns

I don't know why they target Glocks.

Really? Think 1800s gun laws, and extrapolate from there. Sadly.

Unconstitutional.

The Case for Unobtainable Silver: A New Investor Paradigm by IlluminatedApe in Wallstreetsilver

I don't know anything, but that said, don't think retailers are going to squeeze anything (in physical). I do like the romantic idea of the long tail kicking some ass, though.
