You still can have fun, but first drink verification can.


>Apple is trying hard to destroy the concept of an "Album"

Why though? Honest question.


Because it's not how music works anymore. People don't go to a store and buy an album. They rent from a service where your ownership of the music stops the second you cancel your subscription.

Even then they aren't picking albums or artists. They are served mixes from a bottomless carousel of user-created or algo-generated playlists. Most of the songs sound similar, as every playlist is designed to capture a specific mood. The artist becomes interchangeable. The album the track is from becomes meaningless. There's always something further down the playlist that sounds exactly like it.


Could it have to do with licensing costs?


> You could nuke it though. Throw a bunch of nukes in a line and you are good to go. :D

I don't know if you're joking or not but there were tactical demolition nukes in the 60's. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Atomic_Demolition_Mu...


Unless they, somehow, rip a hole in the hull. That would be FUBAR.


> Languages evolving and borrowing good ideas from each other* is not the same thing as hyperbolically sneering at some of the most popular programming languages in the world because they're supposedly all converging into one single language, which they never were doing and never will do.

And yet PHP, Java and C# MVC web apps looks all the same in both syntax and structure. Same syntax for interfaces, classes, namespaces, entity models, query builders, controllers, views and so on. A modern Symfony application looks almost the same as a Spring one.

You should see Zig's interoperability.


> Surely there must be some reports of the outage by now?

Not everyone is AWS. There's a lot of obscure software providers nobody cares when they're down.


> YMMV, but I tried to self-study out of "Art of Electronics" and I ended up giving up because I didn't feel like I was getting the fundamental basic circuit analysis skills that I needed to actually comprehend everything they were doing. The difficulty level ramped up very quickly, at least for me.

Same here. "Practical electronics for inventors" ended up being way more approachable.


How does La Taverne compare to Redux Toolkit which already removes a lot o boilerplate and includes redux thunk


The reducing is done with Immer so you have exactly the same mechanism than https://redux-toolkit.js.org/usage/immer-reducers

But Redux Toolkit is precisely among the reasons that led me to this new lib `La Taverne`:

Redux core has this awesome Flux basics, but it's deliberately unopinionated: you need addons and toolsets to complete your needs (Toolkit, Thunks, Reselect, Saga etc)

All of them add more setup, specific API, weight to your project...

I wanted a lighter solution to handle my Flux architecture.

La Taverne means to be standalone, providing essential Flux tools: async actions, immutable reducing, isolated external state.


> Jews seek refuge from Antisemitism in their historic homeland, immediately get attacked by 7 nations. But this is all their fault, of course.

Of course. That's what happens when you unilaterally found a country on someone's else historic homeland and start an apartheid state.

> Right, all these Jews in Israel are using "many dirty tricks". Thanks for demonstrating, once again, that biased attacks against Israel are heavily laced with Antisemitism.

Ah yes, the antisemitism card. Obviously.


The bulk of Jewish and Palestinian people in Israel during the founding were similarly recent turn-of-the-century migrants from elsewhere in the Middle East to relatively low-population areas previously lived in by Bedouins and Druze.

The standards you're raising are arbitrary and can apply to all of the other countries that were drawn up after the breakup of the Ottoman Empire. Many forcibly expelled their Jewish population, while Israel at least offered all residents first-class citizenship. It's tragic that Pan-Arab Nationalist neighbors convinced so many to reject and rebel, and then offered no aid after.
