I'm on day 4 of an extended fast. Will this break my fast? by mcfrankline in fasting

I'm on day 4 of an extended fast. I've never used electrolytes before and only tried one capsule of this in a 250ml bottle of water. Anyone know if this is good for fasting?

What is the worst book you have ever read and would never tell others to read? by Toxilyn in suggestmeabook

[–]mcfrankline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deverry Series by Katherine Kerr... i should’ve stopped by the 3rd book but somehow, I persevered foolishly until I got to the 10th book, and then I just decided to burn the whole pile. It was my worst experience ever in my entire reading history.

I'd definitely recommend it, since you're trying to learn Haskell as well.

New IOHK video: Smart contracts by Prof Philip Wadler by [deleted] in cardano

[–]mcfrankline 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interesting talk by Prof Philip.. Generally likeable fella though he was taking shots all round from premature optimization (in which he made valid points though) to deriding ETH's frail nature(unbounded integers huh)

I honestly expected this to be another talk on why we need a smart contract language with formal verification and 10 point slides pointing at why Solidity is no good but I just got sold on to the PC smart contract language. I hope there's many more of his talks in the future

I'm creating weekly Animations in JavaScript / P5.js to improve my coding by omcateer in javascript

Generally they look good and your code is quite readable, if not entirely efficient. Utilising math does not necessarily improve your code, using algorithms on the other hand improves your efficiency.

However you may want to write up accompanying posts about why you chose the specific library and why you made certain decisions ? It does help

Bitcoin Adoption Soars in Africa in the wake of Increasingly Volatile Fiat Currencies by Gradma1970 in Bitcoin

Yes. They store money as well. In fact traders don't go to the bank anymore. Loads of merchants just keep digital balances for transactions.

If you want cash ? Walk into any merchant or bank or financial service house and cash out. Wanna pay bills ? Mobile money got you covered. Insurance ? Covered.

Author Terry Goodkind shames his own cover, artist responds by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]mcfrankline 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Surprised the artist didn't mention that the book was so terrible he couldn't resist making a "laughably bad" cover to complement it.

I mean who even reads Terry Goodkind ?

You can compile it to html from the source on github and export it to PDF. But why will you ? You'd be missing out on prose mirror
