I don't think so (could be wrong), but it does perform optimistic mutation on your functional code.

There is a talk somewhere where Richard "demos" this.


yeah that seems cool! I'm a little skeptical of pure functional programming with no escape hatch. I rarely need the escapes in Rust but when I do, I really do.


It isn't "no escape hatch". It is platform dependent escape hatches. A platform can give you full access to mutation and libffi if it wants.

Here's a fantastic NYT article on NK defection that includes some details of the conditions https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/09/world/asia/north-korea-ch...

This article mentions NK workers posing as Americans by paying for VPNs into people's home wifi https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/fbi-thousands-remote-wor...


Actually it is the opposite, it is a scream from those who don't really have a voice in the city.

Really recommend watching the documentary PIXO, you can find the full doc in YouTube with english subtitles.

[edit: suggesting the documentary]


Having lived in São Paulo most of my life, I'd like to corroborate this. The groups tagging buildings generally have nothing to do with (other) crimes. The only unsettling part was the time I saw that that the wall below my 6th floor bedroom window had been tagged overnight


> Actually it is the opposite, it is a scream from those who don't really have a voice in the city.

It is most certainly not. This romanticizing of criminals and vandals is not any kind of compassion. Who would like their neighborhood or home turned into a hell scape?

Edit: To those who downvoted my comment, go look up some pictures of how these neighborhoods look when they are all covered in tags. Ask yourself if you would want to live there? But of course it's easy to be such a benevolent and tolerant hacker, when you don't have to live it yourself...


Well. "O buraco é mais embaixo". But by the tone of your message I can see there is no point in trying to develop this any further.

Personally I pretty much always prefer to see graffiti over plain grey concrete, even when it is just simple tags.

Would you like to look at only buildings and every surface around you looking like the picture above and worse for hours every day for your commute. Because that is the reality for millions of people. Desolation and decay might be a cool photo for traveling hackers to put on their Instagram, but I think it is different when you have to live in it.

I have never heard anybody from São Paulo talk about the delights of this grafitti covering the whole city. I guess they're just uncultured?


Honestly, does unsolicited ink even rank in the major issues faced by São Paulo, or any major city?


Murder is the major issue in São Paulo. Does that mean nothing else should be discussed or commented upon?


And if you like SCP and videogames you should definitly check out the game Control.


That was pretty hard to search for https://www.remedygames.com/games/control/


Just have to know how to get google to go to the right category. Just use Control game instead of just searching control and it pops right up.


My strategy is to go straight to Wikipedia. It's not perfect, but their disambiguation pages are great for lots of ambiguously named proper nouns.


I had that in my library from PS Plus but hadn’t tried it, so thanks for the recommendation.


Recelty finished it. It's a great game.


You can use alpine.js. There is even a way to integrate it with LV: https://dockyard.com/blog/2020/12/21/optimizing-user-experie...


<button @mouseenter.once=" fetch('/dropdown-partial.html') .then(response => response.text()) .then(html => { $refs.dropdown.innerHTML = html }) " @click="open = true" >Show Dropdown</button>

Seriously? This has to be a joke.


I was stumped when I saw it just now. What the heck...I guess the next thing, an amazing breakthrough, is going to be Alpine.scss style="background-color:$red-secondary;font-weight:bold"


I don't use alpine, but isn't that the blessed way of doing it in React/Vue/etc? I thought they were the ones introducing both @handlers on elements and JSX styling


Maybe, except in React you have a huge community, formatters, linters, editors, testing tools/libraries and an overall architecture for doing things. Alpine seems worse than just using jQuery. I'd prefer to use something like Unpoly before using this monstrosity.


Then don't use it, no one is forcing you man. Just because it is not for you doesn't mean its bad or that other people can't have use for it.

You don't really need to use alpine either if you use Phoenix with Liveview, you can probably get away with just using vanilla js if all you really need is some small functionality of modals popping up etc.


why would you load the dropdown HTML separately, just render it along in the template with x-show="open" and have the @click="open=true"?


This is an example from their docs. That's why.


About artificially created language I really like Toki Pona - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona

Very minimalist, nice sounds.


I was quite confused by the examples for Solresol

> Will you go to the countryside this year? - Fadoremi?

> Will you go to the theatre tonight? - Soldoremi?

I was very intrigued at how much meaning could be packed into such a short word, given only seven phonemes.

Finally I found a dictionary and found that those words just mean "countryside" and "theater" respectively.


Yeah, that's true.

These sentences were examples from the language creator's original book [1], and his initial idea was to use nouns as a way to ask a question, and then add a personal pronoun for an affirmative statement:

> Will you go to the theatre tonight? - Soldoremi? > I will go to the theatre tonight. - Soldoremi dore.

As far as I know, later it was changed by the followers and the Solresol grammar [2] tries to move away from this approach, e.g

> Dore fasifa ladofa fami ladosol (I want to read this book [3])

instead of

> Ladosol dore.

FWIW, this is by the company of the creator of the Elixir language, Dashbit.


I wrote the Elm counterpart of the same example...

> Whenever I look it just looks pointlessly complicated.

Quite the opposite on my experience. The fact that something is familiar doesn't mean it is free of complications.
