The amount of people on the internet seriously complaining that both Rust error handling sucks and that .unwrap(); is too verbose is just staggering.

The horseshoe is absolutely real. Social democracy (like the stuff that candidate proposes) is on the middle, and both sides go out into a corrupt authoritarian government where the elites own everything.

Even if you want it to be human readable, you don’t need to include the name into every field and use balanced separators.

Any CSV variant would be an improvement already.

About the title; my condolences.

Lots of "maybe"s, I see…

On which of those application types there are developers that write most of one of the halves, but do not touch the other half?

(Oh, yeah, on the phone apps, but only the ones that are a web site cached on the phone.)

The entire meme is about web-dev. That split between backend and frontend isn’t anywhere else. (And is stupid for the web too, but well, that’s what web-dev do.)

maybe that’s all the customer needs

The food truck is often better than the restaurant experience in every dimension… The same is valid for the app analogies.

How many people worked on it is not a dimension that counts.

It’s a nicer syntax for inline styles.

If you want to use inline styles everywhere, it’s great.

I guess some people write code, and some people also read and maintain it.

That excerpt does nothing even similar to claiming the definition makes things clear.

I have no idea what l is, but given the context of axiomatization of arithmetic, I’m almost sure the author picked a fair and precise example.

but whatever chemicals they add to these things makes just 1 small burger feel like you overate.

That’s usually a feature of good food. I agree that it’s odd that a hamburger would be that way, but usually what causes that is fiber.

Yeah:

parseInt("a") -> NoT a NuMbEr

The Javascript literal interpretation of NaN never fails to amuse me.

I don’t think the US military complex consider that “less undesirable” than basically any other possible outcome.

… well, it may be better in their minds than an asteroid destroying Earth before they can cash-out. Maybe. I’m not sure about this one…

They just had the largest protest in their history, have a handful of cities under military intervention to stop the protests, and are close to elect somebody that promises to fight against the federal government as mayor of their largest city.

What exactly do you expect them to do?

So, they wished the increased spending to the monkey paw and got exactly what they were wishing for: countries are cancelling orders of complex US equipment all over the world, and Europe is developing a military industry to compete with them.

who will happily come in and sort out your security issues later

I really doubt anybody will be happy about it, even after considering the size of the fees. And also, you have a very high estimation of the capacity of those people to notice they have to call you, I really doubt it’s deserved.

No one can cut off the US oil supply.

Well, if the US invests on being able to use its own oil without mixing with anything else, the can become true.

Not to mention they could simply seize oil haulers for themselves with their navy.

A few times, yeah. The world won’t react well to the US specializing into constant piracy.

Hum… I’d put good odds in they getting some now.

How many more of these stories need to come out before us around the rest of the world stop treating the United States like a democracy?

What do you mean by “treating like a democracy”? What countries have you seen treating the US in high regards recently? Or, what do you want to change?
