The threat to American citizens is that they are steered away from their own interests and the interest of furthering democracy throughout the world because they see a curated feed that excludes information critical of China and amplifies information that promotes China as a country of harmony, peace, and prosperity.
And in some cases, the trends amplified on Chinese social media apps directly fuel American political division.

And then JSON doesn’t restrict numbers to any range or precision; and at least when I deal with JSON values, I feel the need to represent them as a BigDecimal or similar arbitrary precision type to ensure I am not losing information.
That’s because the nearest representable float to 0.99999999999999 is 1.0 - not because Python is handling rationals correctly.
This is a float imprecision issue that just happens to work out in this case.
It’s worth wondering why, if Python is OK with “/“ producing a result of a different type than its arguments, don’t they implement a ratio type. e.g. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node18.html#SECTION00612000000000000000
How would you implement this in code?
JavaScript is truly a bizarre language - we don’t need to go as far as arbitrary-precision decimal, it does not even feature integers.
I have to wonder why it ever makes the cut as a backend language.
I think it’s possible media’s attention to scandal has made you cynical.
Most politicians do not do shady, illegal shit. Most “elites” (do you mean billionaires?) do not torture and rape people. Most law enforcement officers are just trying to do their job.
My perspective is from the USA. I understand many other places internationally have a culture of corruption and naked power structures.
So, maybe a good question so answers can be in context is, where are you from?
Fifth Element
Implicit in “profit so much that money becomes trivial” is that they think this tax rate should apply to very high profit businesses/individuals.
In fact the US’ top tax rate was 90% for almost a decade and over 70% for 40 years - during a time many would consider “golden years”.
They could have worded their statement better though.
You have to explicitly check if the return value is an error and propagate it. You write the same boilerplate
if (err) return errover and over again, which just litters your code.
That’s only true in crappy languages that have no concept of async workflows, monads, effects systems, etc.
Sad to see that an intentionally weak/limited language like Go is now the counterargument for good modeling of errors.
I think she is undeniably a better choice for the presidency than Donald Trump, that’s for sure
It’s like far-left rhetoric (especially the kind that seems to come from people who have never seen how e.g. spoilers work or who have never had to find a compromise) isn’t actually that popular, so you see pushback from the instance that dominates the user population, especially with it having users who aren’t “ideologically aligned” with a specific instance and who may have a perspective outside the bubble. I don’t know, just a theory.
in places that have large open lot retail developments, it’s very likely you could just install the solar panels on undeveloped land a few miles away.
why would you complicate both efforts by trying to intertwine them?
Yes, it is a huge pain, especially if you want to have round-trip interoperability with humans using markup. Wikipedia had a major challenge with this when they decided to add a rich text editor alongside wiki markup.
Don’t forget emacs org-mode! https://orgmode.org
Calling people “resources” and the mindset that delivery teams are just a number that you can spend money to increase is a mark of poor project and personnel management, as well.
Why should no one be touching it? You’re basically forcing manually communicated sync/check points on a system that was designed to ameliorate those bottlenecks
If “we work in a way that only one person can commit to a feature”, you may be missing the point of collaborative distributed development.
most Americans enjoy the benefits that come from being an economic, military, and diplomatic heavyweight
