Soiled it!

Also the name of one of the best sci fi novels ever written, which has references to the phenomenon

I wept.

My favorite feature is how currying is applied literally everywhere. You can take any function that accepts 2 args, pass in a single arg and return a new function that accepts one arg and produces the result. In Haskell, this is handled automatically. Once you wrap your head around using partially applied and fully saturated functions you can really start to see the power behind languages like Haskell

Growing up as a musician I was always trying to be the contrarian that hated Nirvana because they were so popular and their songs were so ‘simple’. I’ve since realized the error of my ways

I’ve been learning Haskell, and now I won’t shut up about Haskell

Goddamn that was good

Okay clearly weezer is not post rock, but there is an overwhelming presence of the genre in this list.

I also love Radiohead, weezer, BCNR, Swans and joy division… soooo

Damn, Post-Rock is in shambles

Never seen this before. It’s incredible!

The volume of cars is a scale factor that determines the impact of traffic causing behaviors and conditions for free flowing highways (no traffic lights, stop signs, etc.). Following too closely and improper lane changing are two specific behaviors that actually create slow downs. There are numerous models that simulate this.

I came here to point this out and love the way you stated it. Confusion, hesitation and unnecessary lane changes are what create traffic. There has never been a major highway development in history that didn’t cause at least some short term issues. We should give city planners a bit more credit than that

You’re right, doesn’t change the point though. I have never encouraged anyone to try Lemmy because of how prominent some of this stuff is in the front page, even with nsfw toggled off

51% yiff and fucking degenerate kink content, 48% memes, 1% other

Snowcrash is awesome, your free library doesn’t mail books does it ? 😂

Single most disturbing scene from a movie that wasn’t rated R

It’s an endless cycle. You work hard to enforce your ideals, then when you have the power to make decisions you realize how dependent you are on others to facilitate action. And every one of those people wants something in exchange. Suddenly the ideals you sought to enforce become diluted by compromise, everyone is unhappy and there’s a giant bear called greed knocking on the door into your mind.
