The of the ideas of functional programming have gone on to influence the field.

Algebraic data types and monads are used heavily in Swift/Rust/Scala/Typescript.

Concepts like left/right associativity and pure functions are critical to the entire MapReduce paradigm of computing. Apache Spark, pandas, and the entire dataframe programming paradigm is basically functional programming (though most people suck at pandas and treat it like an object oriented tool).

I think a lot of React is also heavily inspired by functional programming, and modern concurrency schemes are inspired by functional programming.

F# and Haskell didn’t win the language wars. I’ve worked on one erlang project and it was neat, but I think you’re right, I mostly see MVC apps.

A recession is generally defined as two or more quarters with negative GDP growth.

Tariffs will absolutely cause that. They’re going to dampen US growth for years.

That’s only one simple definition though. Broadly I think the answer is still yes, this will cause US job losses, as you’re already seeing in the automotive industry. Job losses result in lower consumer spending, resulting in lower business revenue, and less business expansion and cost cutting, and it can become a reinforcing cycle.

Recessions can be mild or severe, so the jury is still out on whether the US will hold their tariffs, and how quickly the system adapts to the changes.

The bridge town is pretty cool, until the Tenosians show up and throw the nobles off of it.

I spy the golden ratio!

The shadow almost looks like a daggar too

Very battle ready cat

Sometimes it’s good to mix

Every now and then I do eggs fried in maple syrup and it’s amazing (don’t eat this too often though)

the email to Aboussad reads. “It is also concerning that you have not apologized to the company, and in fact you have shown no remorse for the effect that your actions have had and will have.”

Obviously there were going to fire these employees, especially the one who gave notice then did this.

But why the fuck would anyone be like “yOu DiDn’T eVeN aPoLoGiZe To ThE cOmPaNy”? That’s the stupidest god damn thing I’ve heard since “Liberation Day”

We’re an hour into the trading session.

Right now we’re all just pushing the stock price planchette — the bears and shorts all entered this morning with their trades queued up from the weekend.

Where we stop nobody knows, usually there are a few reversals through the day.

I like lemmy more.

That’s even I throw the carts into the lake or push them down the hill behind the mall.

It’s the circle of life. I hear there’s a guy who sells them back to the mall.

Handling has got to be negative on those things.

You start going and the weight distribution or ground is uneven and who knows what’s going to happen.

This happens when I outsource reading the docs to AI agents.

wait… there was a function for that? Why did you tell me to build this house of cards

It was 900mb raw and compressed to 1.6mb after cleaning.

That’s how much junk data there was.

Combing through that log is the only way to prove and identify where a big was introduced so I can fix it.

You’ll miss out on some primo maple syrup

Most recently:

I had to parse an html table with a column of printed python dictionaries, the dicts wrapped a mixed delimiter list of SQL statements of various types.

It’s truly an abomination.

I’ve never had to use pythons AST module to parse data before…

A similar event was the kick in the pants I needed to just delete the whole account for me.

I made an exaggeration and got banned for promoting violence.

Add peanut butter

The stupidity of the formula when they have access to sone of the best central banking economists and economic models in the world does shock me.

Clearly they’re not leveraging anyone credible to do this. Even if it’s a terrible idea, flying it blind is even dumber.

Yeah I used to cynically buy shitcoin volatility…

I’m kind of bagholding some btc right now though.

Crypto is scammy for sure
