  • No rush, honey

  • I suspect they might be referring to the thing they replied to, the sentiment "I love murder"

  • No rush, honey

  • I just want to point out that something being "natural" does not inherently make it ok. Killing other creatures of the same species (murder) is "natural", rape is "natural", stealing is "natural".

    The entire point of ethics/morality is to distinguish between the natural things which we find good, and the natural things we find bad and want ourselves and others to stop doing.

    My point being that if you want to defend eating meat as morally ok, you should do so without the "appeal to nature".

  • How useful are functional programming languages?

    Jump

  • I highly agree with the sentiment. Learning languages of different paradigms is sort of like travelling to visit other cultures to make you a more rounded, better person. Learn a functional language (lisp/Haskell). Learn a concatenative language (forth/Factor). Learn a logical language (Prolog/?). Heck even learn an assembly! (I suggest RISC-V).

  • How useful are functional programming languages?

    Jump

  • A few good reasons, the first being that brand new operating systems don't get written all that often. But even if they were, functional languages focus a lot on abstractions, making them generally higher level languages and so not fast enough to compete with C.

    Having said that, Rust's design is quite inspired by functional languages in many ways, and it is indeed being used in operating systems.

  • European propaganda DESTROYED

  • But is it ever 100% hot outside? No matter how hot it feels, it can always get hotter.

  • Sorry for replying to an old comment, but do you have some source to support this? I am searching online but finding nothing :(

  • Today's sage advice

    Jump

  • I only block when I know I am unable to resist the temptation to engage. And usually when I do finally block, I wish I'd done it much sooner.

  • Today's sage advice

    Jump

  • I agree with many people ITT that overuse of blocks could create echochambers, however I still think that blocks are an underused feature of social media. These days much online content is not designed for discourse, it is designed for engagement. Rage bait, over sensualisation, even trolls farming frustration for their hit of endorphins. These are the kinds of people (and content outlets in general) which should be blocked.

    But to be clear, not everyone who disagrees with you is a troll, or trying to rage bait.

  • Winter lovers

    Jump

  • I mean the feeling of coziness and warmth inside is a huge part of why winter is so great! I do also actively go hiking, snow-shoeing, skiing, etc in winter and love that too, but that just adds to the beautiful contrast between crisp, fresh winter air and warm cozy indoors.

  • Sea of Sorrow wishlist

    Jump

  • A new crest would be awesome, but I'd also love some incentives to use a wide variety of crests. Perhaps ways to upgrade existing crests?

  • Hardest boss from act 1?

    Jump

  • Yeah I got the "flow" of last judge much quicker than widow. After only a couple attempts I felt like "all right, I can do this" while against window I was thrilled to FINALLY beat her... Only to realise she had a second phase

  • It's legal to have ZERO days off a year?! This feels like a human rights violation somehow

  • The Invention of Anarchism - Existential Comics

    Jump

  • So I enjoy good discourse, and I think most of your post is reasonable, but is it really necessary to start it off with insults and condescension?

  • The Invention of Anarchism - Existential Comics

    Jump

  • Ok interesting, thanks for the answer. I'm also curious what exactly "community" envisions? Does it just refer to existing towns/cities/city divisions? Or would it be necessary for the existing areas to be "broken up" into smaller, closer communities? My thinking is that in large cities there are often a huge number of people, and yet very little sense of community between them, so I am doubtful how well a community driven system could scale?

  • The Invention of Anarchism - Existential Comics

    Jump

  • So, genuine question: under anarchism, what would be the societal response to, say, someone abusing their partner, or a serial killer or something?

  • We all took foreign languages in school and none of us can actually speak those languages

    Jump

  • I used to agree with you, then I came to Europe where everyone can speak at least two languages. So they must be doing something right in schools here
