Is it worth reading? I’ve played Witcher 3 and saw the first (sometimes good, sometimes shit) series of the show, but never read any…

Stop bringing your practical realism into my dreamworld moral absolutism

Maybe you’re trying to match individuals to dissemination, idk man neither of us were there

What bit did you worry I hadn’t read? Was it an answer you posted in another thread, perhaps, that you’re talking about? I don’t believe there was anything in my reply that suggested I hadn’t comprehended anything relevant up to that point…

It’s not really that straightforward though, is it? Firstly is it a mean or a median average? What counts as an empire? When do we date the rise and fall of specific empires? These are not questions with straightforwards answers. Would Hitler’s Germany count as an empire? How many Roman empires were there?

I nearly dismissed your review until you qualified your assessment of onion rings. I have transposed the order on those first two myself

Onion rings top, then tots, then everything else

Easy enough. Tells you what languages are supported. Also helps you debug a bad language label. Although does have the disadvantage that you still need the name of every language in every language (the existing state) and you don’t get to suddenly sqrt your data requirements for storing that

Literate programming as an ideal works at very very high level and very very low level. Plumbing code often doesn’t benefit from comments at all, and is the usually the most subject to refactoring. Code by amateurs/neophytes is often not gonna be written in such a way that a clear description of the intention or mechanics is achievable by the coder. Unobtainable standard, smh. I like comments with a ‘why’ at the top and a ‘what’ at the bottom (of the stack. I’m talking about abstraction layers. Why am I doing this piece of logic in the code you can clearly understand at the top, what the fuck am I doing these weird shenanigans with a fucking red-black tree of all things in this low level generic function)

Yeah, and the comment you just replied to said: why not both? Language name in language up front, and language name in current language in parens. I think it’s a neat idea and absolutely would support that as a standard.

Sometimes you just need to document the business reason behind what you’re doing, regardless of how clear the code might be 😆

No, you must have the courage of your convictions. Leave your hot takes up, even if they are trash and embarrass you later. We must all learn.

Good story. I’ve bookmarked that one.

Yes. A lost of people didn’t vote in the US elections last year. The ones who don’t live there make up the largest contingent. They’re unlikely to blame themselves.

Well who wants constraints anyway? The most inconvenient constraints in the wrong place can make certain things much more complicated to deal with… Now a nice, sensible normal Hilbert space, isn’t that lovely?

I just think complex vector spaces are a great place to stop your abstraction

You can, they map, but complex numbers are much much easier to deal with

Yeah but aren’t quaternions basically just a weird subgroup of 2x2 complex matrices?
