F# and SQL programmer. Curious about better languages and tools.
Maybe I'm not understanding something here, but I think I've found something as crazy as IEEE doubles. What's the difference between +0 and -0 states?

Congratulations! I feel like the first 3 months were the hardest, although it really didn't feel great until they could talk to tell me what they wanted. Also, for us taking care of the second baby when the first was 2 felt 3x harder than taking care of the first alone. Mine both had colic, though.

I think that this is the simplification that I needed to hear. Seriously though, just excellent.

As I frequently discover to my chagrin, English has even less type safety than JavaScript.

Senility is real. I wonder if there's anyone who could have a "Come to Jesus" meeting with him to get him to retire early. I'm sure Pritzker could find somebody better to appoint. So disappointed that this is one of my senators. On the plus side I still have Duckworth.

We're also waiting for you to grow some balls. Pathetic.

Schultz was so much more lovable, though.

D.C. Follies must have been the US copy of the original. I remember it making me fall off the couch laughing. Looking forward to this.

Probably haven't heard of the Greatest Of All Time System Engineer either.

I don't think it's hypocrisy. Perhaps it's foresight.

The flat earther theories I've seen plot the earth as a circle with Antarctica at the edge. I think the simplest winner against this is: How do you explain southern hemisphere flight times?

If you are asking purely theoretically: Trump is on Putin's side, but he's dumb. Vance is on Putin's side and he's smart.

It would also be nice if said UI didn't suck.

Doesn't hold a candle to eastern European mayo, but it's easily the best available at grocery store near me. I wish I knew how to make better homemade.

This is a good one - so simple, but I'd never thought about it before.

Came here to say this and see several people beat me to it.

Me either and I was thinking, "if there were a way to sneak in a Matrix reference, this would be perfect."

This is exactly right. I just hope Ukraine can cobble together some kind of effective defense on their own and with what little help Europe can or does give.
