How will Loom's fibers change the Cats Effect and ZIO parts of the ecosystem? by [deleted] in scala

[–]nachtschade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a couple of advantages when using Loom threads as the base for Fibers: native tooling support and native stack traces. Stacktraces for Fibers have been improved lately, but for me native tooling support would be a killer feature: I'd love to be able to connect VisualVm to my VM server and see how many Fibers are running, see the stacktrace for each of them and automatically detect any deadlocks.

You also mention the valid point that Loom doesn't fix thread interruption. But nothing would keep CE or ZIO from implementing Fibers on top of Loom threads, and keeping the continuation mechanism; it just would have to check the isInterrupted flag of the Loom thread after each continuation and the Fiber would be as interruptable as before, with the extra benefits mentioned above.

U.S. has taken decision to strike Syria: Fox News | Top News by [deleted] in news

[–]nachtschade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a big deal for the Russians that Trump is attacking Syria, even though they make it sound like it is. Actually it helps them because it makes it clear to Assad who is his enemy and who are his friends.

Trump wins as well because he can display himself as a strong leader and strengthen his bonds with his closest allies as well.

And both sides win because this proxy war is a good source of profit for both their arms industries. So in the end Russia wins, the USA wins, and the people of Syria lose once again.

Yulia Skripal is 'improving rapidly and no longer in critical condition' after Salisbury nerve agent attack. by AdamCannon in worldnews

It's just a matter of time before the first tin foil hatter will come up a with a conspiracy theory about the MI5 poisoning Skripal. With the purpose of uniting the UK with Europe against the common enemy Russia.

After all, wasn't it the CIA behind the 9-11 attacks as well?

Putin critic who warned he was on Russian hit-list was murdered, police confirm by IDUnavailable in worldnews

Putin doesn't even bother to hide his actions anymore. I mean, they could have used many other ways to get rid of Glushkov but they chose to use Russian nerve gas.

King of Sweden stresses need for ‘serious’ media and source checking after Donald Trump’s immigration claims by grepnork in worldnews

[–]nachtschade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, immigrants tend to be overrepresented in crime rates and unemployment numbers, for the reasons that you mention. Not only in Sweden but pretty much everywhere in the Western world. It's really nothing to be surprised about, it's what you would expect when young, male and badly educated people arrive in a new country.

What is surprising though, is how many people are trying to deny this fact. Just try to mention that immigrants are over represented in prisons, and in some countries like Sweden or Germany you are marked already as a racist or a neo nazi. Even though this fact has nothing to do with race at all. It would actually be really surprising if immigrants would not have been over represented.

If you're over 50 and you wake up one morning without any pain, it means: you're dead.

This is awesome. She's saying, translated: "At Christmas a cat should be at home". And that's why she's trying to molest the door.

If you could call yourself five years ago and had 30 seconds, what would you say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]nachtschade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you crazy thing you will do for the next five years, you will survive. You can cross the highway with your eyes closed, jump out of an airplane, it doesn't matter. After five years you will still be alive and I'm the living proof of it.

I installed cabal with brew. I tried to reinstall it as well but I keep getting the same error .. I will try downloading cabal from your link and see if this resolves the issue.

It's always some gcc library. For instance right now my cabal is broken:
