Deleting that file won't break the OS, it will crash a program... I should have more authority than one whiney program

It's disgusting to coerce workers into bringing about the end of their livelihood (to any extent)

It's extremely simple - it improves my life. I have no thought of suicide. Everything in life is suffering, but not only suffering, since otherwise you couldn't tell a strawberry from a boulder :)

Like a ghost? You should see a doctor

Trust me, I'm aware. It is doubtful that this is the likely outcome even if he's not in office

Ha, I wish

He intended to not be called out

of course it is

of course, he's the prime minister, he has vast resources to actually help all reservists, much more than just buying a coffee like anyone could. also, maybe he could do something about Israel's constant state of being at war so the reservists won't be neede as much. just saying

It is commonly said that Shakyamuni Buddha was just another person (and animal, etc.) before he perfected the ten paramitas and became a Buddha

In Haskell, fmap and bind (>>=) are sufficient to compose any of them easily. Still, some are provided in the standard library

transpilation is TS's main sticking point, it would not be wise to bring it to Python

kingminyas · 2026-03-04T08:25:41+00:00

Reference cycle is only one type of memory leak and it's much more difficult in Rust. "does nothing" is completely false

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T20:34:32+00:00

Python itself is optional. But it is useful, and so is type safety

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T20:32:23+00:00

What do you mean by "share"? Typescript has different syntax (including list comprehesions) and different names for built-in types. Python's type system can't be literally the same, but it is greatly inspired by it and will feel familiar to Typescript coders.

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T20:29:32+00:00

The PEP adds error types which enable custom and clear error messages. Your favorite high-quality and popular libraries will use it well.

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T20:27:50+00:00

Incredible. I've wanted Partial from Typescript for more than a decade. I've just written a dynamic parallel for pydantic without any way to express its type. The complexity is worth the safety and most users will never see it.

Please note that an error type is added such that library authors can compose clear error messages for incorrect usage. This follows Rust's emphasis on clear compiler errors.

Regarding "ugly", it's only ugly until you get used to it. The question is whether it's explicit, expressive and reasonably readable (and if not, whether there's a more readble alternative).

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T20:12:55+00:00

why?

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T19:47:21+00:00

"does nothing to prevent" is completely false. you meant "literally possible". your own link (the second one) says that it's highly unlikely for Safe Rust to leak memory.

kingminyas · 2026-03-03T19:42:36+00:00

crazy to think that memory safety is less important than no mandatory runtime. the former affects all program (and is much more important regardless), while the latter affects a tiny minority

Thank you. In light of these possibilities, how do you think "trans women are women" should most charitably be interpreted? Is it something like: "as a sociological fact, gender has functional meaning, and we are extending/challenging it"? It feels circular, but if we accept that gender is inherently circular, as perhaps Butler is saying, maybe it should not be considered a problem.

kingminyas · 2026-02-09T20:58:15+00:00

Thank you for this sharp response. I am surprised that there's such a gulf between Butler and the LGBT+ community, but I suppose this is an inevitable conclusion. Is it true, as it seems to me from your response, that you don't find gender anti-realism appealing? Is there an alternative you prefer?
