One problem with exceptions is composability.

You have to rely on good and up-to-date documentation or you have to dig into the source code to figure out what exceptions are possible. For a lot of third party dependencies (which constitute a huge part of modern software), both can be missing.

Error type is a mitigation, but you are free to e.g. panic in Rust if you think the error is unrecoverable.

A third option is to have effect types like Koka, so that all possible exceptions (or effects) can be checked at type level. A similar approach can be observed in “practical” languages like Zig. It remains to been seen whether this style can be adopted by the mainstream.

So an average furry?

Black Panther the movie actually borrowed some art elements from Afrofuturism. Although it’s not very pronounced.

Bingo!

What happened to the beeping anti-stalking feature?

So you’re working at E-corp and they want to sign you up for the F-society?

The problem with these token activism is that it’s hollow in content. The intent might be good, but the action is almost pure virtue signalling.

Slavoj Zizek pointed out in multiple interviews that there’s a pervert self-reflectiveness in the self-censorship: privileged people “enjoy” being guilty of their privilege, so it’s more about themselves rather than the people they claim to represent. “Sorry, but you were naive and unaware of people being racist when they use these words, so let me stop them and now you are protected (by me) in an inclusive atmosphere.”

A related radical freedom situation as an inverse to the above is that when friends get really close, even using racist slurs is treated as a gesture of intimacy, rather than racism. In an ideal world, the context in the public discourse would be so strong that even racist words lose their racist meaning (“oh, so you are joking as well”) rather than the opposite (assuming there’s ubiquitous “hidden” racism in the use of a word, even when there’s clearly none).

Another critique is that it presents itself as a substitute of real solutions. Instead of addressing real problems, it provides a simple “everyday” solution, very much similar to the recycling movement. Of course we need to recycle, but we should be aware that it’s not a substitute of radical real actions (e.g. stopping the big oil).

The article cited the 2025 budget [PDF]. It’s under the section “Proposes a Minimum Tax on Billionaires”.

To finally address this glaring inequity, the Budget includes a 25 percent minimum tax on the wealthiest 0.01 percent, those with wealth of more than $100 million.

Though the Harris campaign is not directly mentioned, I think we may assume it’s coming from both Harris and Biden.

Such a shame on the activists to spread disinformation. It was Lizzy who crushed the economy, #NOT THE LETTUCE!

I saw a streamer playing the demo and was looking forward to it. That being said, it’s too recent a game for a patient gamer like me! (Not really. I do buy new games :)

This is perfectly captured in the recent Civil War movie, the Jesse Plemons’ scene, “What kind of American are you?”.

For true immutability, burn something like tails on a read-only CD.

Figma is the complete opposite of free software. It’s a cloud-only proprietary software.

They are already invented: 😱 and 😱😱😱

“No one is above the law” seems a bit of circular with the fact that the law is what the Supreme Court says it is. Similarly, who would decide whether a Supreme Court judge violates the purported Code of Conduct?

I guess it would all come to the legislation branch, but even if the reform goes through, I’m afraid that the political division in the Congress would limit its effectiveness.

Conceptually yes, but you can achieve better efficiency by putting multiple adders together with e.g. a Wallace tree.

There are more efficient ways to expand adders than simply chaining them as well.

The problem is their retail politics style being more costly.
