The Benefits of World Hunger
  • I think "describing it as if it were normal" only helps the people who support this arrangement because it gets normalized. That's where the accusation of conservatism came from, that and the way they tried to shut me down with insults.

    Edit: given that there are likely to be a lot of people that agree with this argument unironically, doesn't it seem irresponsible to play some game where you pretend like you support it? Without ever coming out against it at the end?

    Really, it's just naked approval, with any disapproval left as an exercise to be performed by the reader.

  • The Benefits of World Hunger
  • Who would build any sort of factory if they did not know that many people would be available to take the jobs at low-pay rates

    Much of the hunger lirerarure talks about how it is important to assure that people are well fed so that they can be more productive. That is nonsense

    No one works harder than hungry people.

    [...]well-nourished people are far less willing to do that work

    For those of us at rhe high end of the social ladder, ending hunger globally would be a disaster.

    I guess the irony is lost on me. Nothing here indicates that it's wrong or should change. Also, you're a huge asshole.

    Edit: in fact I know people (conservatives) who are totally fine with this arrangement. They are huge assholes too, huh isn't that weird.

    Looking for a system/application language that is better than C/C++
  • C# is a great language, I don't know much about game dev but I know unity and godot game engines have good support for c#. You can target Windows/Linux/Mac on all the common architectures. All the build tools are available on the command line if that's your thing.

  • Option Result library for c#
  • I very much disagree with this, Null Reference Exceptions have been a huge problem in c#. Nullable reference types are a partial fix, but the question of "how do I 'return' an error from a statically typed method" is not answered there.

  • Option Result library for c#
  • The operator being applied to the ResultObject will always resolve to the Generic type that was specified as 'T in IResult<T>. If the function is not successful the resolved value will be whatever value was supplied to the ResultObject constructor, the opt.None property will true and the opt.Some property will be false.

  • Option Result library for c#
  • The example is simplified, but I dislike returning null in my own code. The function will always execute, left or right doesn't matter it's mapped across in the ResultObject class.

    The function must return an IResult<T>, the ResultObject analyzes the IResult<T> checking for IFail or IOk. If it's IOk the value of type T is retrieved from the Value property of the IOk<T> object and returned, the Some property defaults to true. If the IResult<T> is an IFail, Some is set to false, it copies the message from the IFail object into the ResultObject, and returns the value the was supplied to its constructor.

    I'm just sharing something I find useful, and I hope I can make it useful for others as well. Thanks for the questions.

    A collection of tools for dealing with nulls, failures and the generic type issues that arise in this domain.

    Is anyone else stuck on overhead?

    I work for a services company, and we're not getting much right now. Just wanted to ask about work availability across the board.

    !error no posts

    I have an active post in vscode right now, which I made in browser, but cannot see anything when viewing the community with Connect. Any ideas?

    FSI Start

    Hi everyone, I'm trying to try out F# via FSI in VS Code (Windows 10)

    I have Ionide for F# installed, and have used it before, but now every time I try to start it I get a message "FSI :Start resulted in an error", it goes on to helpfully report "the option has no value".

    dotnet is in path, dotnet works great. FSI? nothing.

    I also have the .net workload installed for visual studio 2022 (if that matters).

    I started up my Linux VM (KDE Neon) fired up vs codium and tried FSI Start...same error! So no tinkering in f# for me tonight. Does anyone have an idea what's happening, across two environments? Google is no help...
