Once again, thank you for taking the time to share about your experience. I hope your deep dives take you to interesting places, friend.
Anything interesting you've randomly learnt recently that you'd like to share ?
Thank you for sharing.
My partner is disabled (not as impacting as you but rather impacting still), and I was really annoyed at relatives who tried to offer hope and advice when her symptoms started. Hell is paved with good intentions, so to say.
A few questions, if you don't mind me asking : you mentioned you were a math student, did you have a preference for a particular field ? Are you still learning maths, or did you switch to other things ?
Are you able to / do you listen to music ? Any particular preference ? Same question for movies and TV shows. Any other form of entertainment you are able to experience and enjoy, when your condition permits ?
I mean, even though they're not explicitly connected, Guy Ritchie has made a number of movies with similar tone/vibe and London Crime setting. I'm choosing to believe they're happening in the same universe
- Lock, Stock and a smoking barrel
- Snatch
- Revolver
- The gentlemen (which was also derived as a decent Netflix show)
There's also Layer Cake from Matthew Vaughn which scratches the same itch.
Didn't they get shit recently for AI and crypto related decisions ? Did they backtrack on that ?
I'm confused as to why the head of state of a country would bother visiting a convicted felon.
The fuck is this ? An article that summarises a Reddit thread ?
A lot of boomers in France equate being vegetarian to not eating red meat ... It's shameful. Anyway, that's probably what the V is about here.
Where did you find this menu ?
There's already 5 Highlander movies. The reboot would be the 6th
Looks great ! Thanks for sharing
If you don't mind me asking, how long have you been working on it ? Are you working on it full-time ? If not, how do you balance it with the rest of your day ? Are you working on it alone or ... ?
I write Scala code for a living. Scala may not be the best language at anything but it's extremely good at everything. It's extremely versatile and easy to fall in love with. It's really unopinionated and has a number of sub-ecosystems that are super cool but it makes it hard for newcomers to navigate it. It attracts passionate and clever people, but as a result comes with a (rightful) reputation of being hard/expensive to hire for.
Its curse is that it's the most niche mainstream language, or the most mainstream niche language.
Yup. Thing is, touch less interaction is very awkward, anything with any kind of feedback is much better (including touchscreen). It never stood a chance
The US healthcare system has provided me with lots of entertainment value via John Oliver's Last Week Tonight. I like it for that
For real though, despite being a software engineer who could find a very lucrative job in the US in a heartbeat, there's no way in hell I'll ever even remotely consider it, and the healthcare system is one of the reasons.
Scala can also be compiled to JavaScript with really good interop with JS libraries, and to native with decent interop with C
