"We should intervene in misbehaving countries" vs. "we must respect other countries sovereignty" is never such an easy decision as the cartoon puts it.

In the end of Black Panther, Wakanda becomes an imperialistic power.

The closest Marvel has to that position is Iron Man. But he still does his own thing, not the government bidding.

You have to put a segment of "disk" outside of the "disc" set on that Venn diagram. You are forgetting about solid state disks.

Historically, that depends if the US is threatening to invade them or not.

Yeah, there was a series of crazy cults by the 20th century too. But they were a much smaller share of the people.

That's a valid point.

There are two kinds of good serialization languages, the ones where values are black boxes and only serialize the data structure, and the ones where everything is completely determined and can be turned directly into an API.

JSON is neither, but it's closer to the first than YAML. XML is the first, while the SOAP standard almost turns it into the second. TOML is about as close to the first as JSON.

Peter himself.

And then before the turn of the 5th century, the 10th century, the 15th century... Christians do love those round numbers.

when they’re actively supplying a genocide

Yeah, and now Iran is too.

Anyway, the people within a country are perfectly able to complain. They don't have to agree with the actions of their government.

TFB, the numbers are not defined as 64 bits floats.

They are just not defined. At all.

The end of line also has semantic meaning. Both indentation and eol are whitespace.

Haskell supports both semantic whitespace and explicit delimiters, and somehow almost everybody that uses the language disagrees with you.

But anyway, for all the problems of YAML, this one isn't even relevant enough to point out. Even if you agree it's a problem. (And I agree that the YAML semantic whitespace is horrible.) If YAML was a much better language, it would be worth arguing whether semantic whitespace breaks it or not.

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?
