Weird question, but what does GnuCash do that you wouldn’t get easily from excel? I haven’t used any of these apps and wondering what I’m missing out on.

Not world news. It’s an internal matter of the US.

Unfortunately this is just PR speak. While the Lebanese resistance was very successful in repelling an occupation of Lebanon, israel has succeeded in forcing them to abandon the support front for Gaza. I do not blame them at all, but it makes the victory in Lebanon bittersweet.

As someone who is not deep into type theory or functional programming, can you please explain why you mean by “ergonomic overloading”?

My understanding is that ocaml mitigates the need for type classes through its more advanced module system. So far I have been enjoying the use of OCaml modules, so I’m curious what exactly I’m missing out on, if any.

Thanks for taking the time to talk with me btw!

What are your thoughts on this comparison? https://github.com/sidkshatriya/me/blob/master/007-My-Thoughts-on-OCaml-vs-Haskell-Rust-2023.md

Tell us more about unison

I know double semicolons are a thing, but I’ve never had to use them. I forget what they’re for, but yeah it’s supposed to be an escape hatch for something that shouldn’t be happening iirc.

The curried snd uncurried functions… Maybe you are confusing with SML, because everything in ocaml is curried by default. Though admittedly the standard library could be more complete, but I personally am happy to use third party dependencies for less common things.

Sad I had to scroll to the end to see this.

Ocaml is brilliant and has the nicest type features. It’s almost like Haskell but more approachable imo.

Striking terror in the hearts of genocidal invaders is a good thing yeah

Very much the same. I was terrified of regex, now I love it

This is actually exactly what I asked for, thank you!!

The appeal for json and yaml is readability, and partially ease of parsing. I say s-expressions win over both in both aspects.

Can you please expand on your references to no-sql and your reference to “lightweight markup”? I don’t quite understand what you meant there.

What’s so good about it?

I never really quite understood IPFS and why it gets used where I see it today. What problem is it solving?

It’s funny that I can’t tell if you mean KSA or USA

donetick.com

I know someone who’s literally making that right now. Remind me in a week, I’ll send you the link. He’ll probably be done by then.

Edit: donetick.com

For XMPP, have you looked into using snikket? It does most things you’d want out of the box without having to setup extensions yourself.

You’re still too busy analyzing the motives or agenda of the author instead of evaluating the information. Of-fucking-course the Syrian state TV is going to have an agenda that… Surprise: agrees with state policy. This is not the revelation you think it is.

Guess what? Every source has a bias or agenda. For many it is money related. If you take any source for granted, you’d be a fool. Analyze the information for what it is.

Now, the US is indeed stealing. There have been several videos posted before, and local witnesses arresting to it. This has nothing to do with whatever you think it is framing. This is actually happening.

The US isn’t robbing Syrians at gunpoint

What the hell do you call installing your literal military and building 14 bases (more US bases per square mile of any similarly-sized region in the world), and has initiated multiple attacks on Syria since?

It’s only considered theft because the people eating and using the fuel are ethnically undesirable.

Maybe to you. To me, it is considered theft because the oil fields which were once keeping all Syrians warm, cooking, and supplying them with electric power is now being given to an occupying military while most Syrians are struggling for a drop of heating or cooking oil, many dying of the winter cold.
