Yeah, but try counting the days in those months

Do people still use this for functions? I've been in typescript for years, its all arrow functions and very few classes in our codebase. There are almost no this at all. Is it still comnon in js?

I read and commented over there, but I will add: this really drives home the importance of creating ground-up power structures that are not dependant on and exist in opposition to the state. When the goal becomes statism, the result is never not a state.

The majority of solid nuclear waste, the kind that lasts milenia, can be reprocessed in to fuel and used again. France is particularly good at this.

The water released from Fukushima contains no solid nuclear waste. Rather, its irradiated water where some of the hydrogen has become tritium. Tritium has a half life of about 12 years, and is naturally occuring from solar radiation. The safest way to deal with it is to filter it, then dilute it so that the percentage of tritium is not much higher than the natural level. This is what Japan is is doing, and will continue doing for several years.

Simply put, safely dealing with nuclear waste is a well understood process, and the main reason it doesn't get done is because of objections from anti nuclear-power activists

haskell is one of the mathematically founded functional languages, which is a whole family of loosely related languages that have seen lower uptake over the years. Other examples include ML and variants, and F#.

There are a few reasons why adoption has been slow:

  • poor outreach by language founders
  • less focus on commercial use
  • novel syntax
  • core abstractions that differ from mainstream

Many of these are seeing some change. Haskell is getting better at outreach and comercial focus, and Rescript (ml for the web) has a lot of syntactical similarity to ja|ascript.

i view the democratic socialist model as harm mitigation. It doesn't remove the harmful structures of the state or capital, but it does reduce the harm somewhat. As such, those policies are concesions that anarchists should fight for, but the system itself is not a goal and anarchists should continue to work in opposition to it

Yeah! I watch a lot to help learn. Twist of the wrist is so foundational.

My advice, as a seasoned expert with almost 3000 miles (this is all the sarcasm), keep with the parking lot drills. As he shows, counter steer is the only way to steer, so you are doing it a little bit, subconciously. But motorcycle speeds mean more lean for a corner, means more countersteer. Build the habit at speeds that mean a bruise, not ones that mean a trip to the er

Vibia Valetine sounds cool as fuck. Thats awesome! And like, I don't think people will mind, some people also call her the patron saint of trans people.

One of the mistakes repeated over and over is the belief that the mechanisms af the state can be leveraged to dismantle the state. Movements do have success at building dual power and gaining concessions from the state.

As we do this, its important to keep the history in mind. We don't need a theory, we just need to remember what hasn't worked and use that going forward.

Whoa, hey, I just came back to this post and saw your edit. I'm really impressed by the way you listened to feedback and icorporated it in your stance.

And hey, these behaviours and the industries supporting them are really damaging. And fightinig those industries will require individuals to change behaviour. If we take action to live car free now, then dismantling the fossil fuel industry won't affect us as much later.
