But generic type syntax is a feature exclusive to Typescript while typeof is a JavaScript thing. You’d never get Pie[Pie[T]] as a result from a typeof check. (Please excuse the square brackets; seems like the markdown parser here isn’t quite right and it keeps messing up the angle brackets)

Also, it’s typeof foo not typeof(foo) in js

factoid actualy just statistical error. average palestinian eats 0 pieces of bread per day. Breads Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 190,000 each hour, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

In this case it’s … Really not worth explaining anything? And it’s not like it’s an unusual tool. It’s just a pry bar.

Agree in general though

There are some cases where any must be used instead of unknown but they usually involve generic constraints and seem more like a bug than intended behavior

Fwiw Linux is way easier today than it was a million years ago. Honestly I find it simpler to use than Windows.

No no, 10 base 512 lines of code

They can connect via USB so you can do things like perform a clean shutdown when it loses power

uBlock Origin is the one that used to be relevant, but their anti-ad-blocking pop-up has made the site unusable for me lately.

I’m sure uBO will eventually work again but for now, no dice.

It doesn’t for me. Probably hasn’t been rolled out to you yet.

We already have bacteria that eat plastic

It makes sense if you just think of everything as a function.

JSX can exist without React; it’s essentially just an alternative syntax for function calls.

(That is, annoyingly, handicapped in the Typescript checker)

This happens all the time. I feel like a big reason people don’t like meetings is that they tend to involve a lot of bikeshedding.

Finger. Exercise.

That concern is feigned, for PR.

I’m in the process of doing so now

Computers are binary, yeah? So we have to represent fractional numbers with binary, too.

In decimal, numbers past the decimal point are 10^-1, 10^-2, … etc. In binary, they’re 2^-1, 2^-2, …

2^-1 is one half, so 0.1 in binary is 0.5 in decimal. 2^-2 is one quarter. 0.11 in binary is 0.75 in decimal. And of course you’ve got 0.01 = 0.25

The problem comes when representing decimal numbers that don’t have neat binary representations. For instance, 0.1 in decimal is actually a repeating binary number: 0.0001100110011…

Fun fact: NaN is of type number

Personal example: I once asked on the linguistics subreddit why desceiptivist linguistics were preferred to prescriptivist and was downvoted to hell and back. The only replies were to call me a racist. I never got an answer, and I still don’t know. So voting is not the end-all be-all of forum mechanics.

I’mma have to call bullshit here, unless there just so happened to be a different person using the name quindraco on Reddit who asked this very question.

• Your question was answered.
• You may have gotten downvotes, but it was certainly not “to hell and back” – your post is currently sitting at +18.
• Not a single person called you racist, even after you compared descriptivism to literal genocide.

The article itself makes the connection:

As the 2024 presidential campaign ramps up, concern is quickly rising that such images might be used to spread false information.

Though, I guess shame on us for expecting better journalism these days.
