I think its evolved over time and many people don't believe "pop punk" is really considered "punk" even though a lot of the themes we saw in the 80's punk bands are very clear and present in Green Day's music.<p>Which then begs the question what really defines punk music? I'm honestly not sure because many of the hallmarks of the 80's punk was the poor production, guitars out of tune, singers who couldn't sing very well - all of which have been greatly improved when you consider Green Day's music.<p>Billy Joe Armstrong is a phenomenal singer. Even on Dookie, the producer said a majority of the songs he did in a single take - which is staggering to think about. Their musical abilities are unquestionably much better than any of the 80's punk bands. Tre Cool's drumming is just on another level and I'm not sure many 80's era punk band drummers could ever hang with his abilities. Even the production level of Dookie was light years ahead of many of the seminal punk albums that came out in the 80's.<p>Its easy to claim that Green Day isn't a "real" punk band, but when you start to compare them to the "prototypical" bands in the 80's, they sing about many of the same things, but have elevated the genre beyond what its really been known for. In the end, I have a harder time not calling them punk, there's just too many similarities to many of the most popular bands people know. | null | null | 41,791,124 | 41,790,295 | null | [

As in, have a brand identity separate from a specific domain name. That may sound crazy when so many tech companies do/did tie their brand to their domain, but they are not the same thing. | null | null | 41,789,941 | 41,789,941 | null | null | null | null |

41,791,308 | comment | kkukshtel | 2024-10-09T18:50:09 | null | It has been crazy to build an engine for this exact reason. You quickly see what you take for granted and what requires work to implement but "appears" effortless. Things that seem so obvious and core you quickly find don't come for free.<p>A simple example was that yesterday I was trying to debug why my MouseDown event wasn't firing every frame and was just firing once like MousePressed. After some digging in I realized that MouseDown isn't actually a primitive mouse event type in my platform wrapper code (Sokol). You get Up/Down. Doing this 1-to-1 wouldn't give people what they usually want (a MouseDown event that fires every frame), so you've got to figure out how to implement that yourself.<p>As for the Github, it's all a work in progress! I'm actively working on the engine but it isn't really "released" yet. I've got a very active dev branch and some docs I'm working on before I do a proper "reveal".<p>As for screenshots - what kind of stuff would you want to see? It's just a 2D engine so it's not like I have awesome graphics to show off. The point of it is that it's a code-only framework, there's no built-in editor or anything. I do want to have runnable embeds though of the demos! | null | null | 41,780,967 | 41,779,519 | null | null | null | null |

41,791,316 | comment | steve_adams_86 | 2024-10-09T18:50:53 | null | I love Zod, but recently I've been converting to Effect's Data and Schema modules.<p>Previously I liked a combination of Zod and ts-pattern to create safe, pattern matching-oriented logic around my data. I find Effect is designed far better for this, so far. I'm enjoying it a lot. The Schema module has a nice convention for expressing validators, and it's very composable and flexible: <a href="https://effect.website/docs/guides/schema/introduction" rel="nofollow">https://effect.website/docs/guides/schema/introduction</a><p>There are also really nice aspects like the interoperability between Schema and Data, allowing you to safely parse data from outside your application boundary then perform safe operations like exhaustively matching on tagged types (essentially discriminated unions): <a href="https://effect.website/docs/other/data-types/data#is-and-match" rel="nofollow">https://effect.website/docs/other/data-types/data#is-and-mat...</a><p>It feels extremely productive and intuitive once you get the hang of it. I didn't expect to like it so much.<p>I think the real power here is that these modules also have full interop with the rest of Effect. Effects are like little lazy loaded logical bits that are all consistent in how they resolve, making it trivial to compose and execute logic. Data and Schema fit into the ecosystem perfectly, making it really easy to compose very resilient, scalable, reliable data pipelines for example. I'm a convert.<p>Zod is awesome if you don't want to adopt Effect wholesale, though. | null | null | 41,764,163 | 41,764,163 | null | [

It wasn't necessarily that people didn't know the real name of the place. It functioned more like an inflection that helps to distinguish between the company, and a specific storefront operated by that company. Compare it to the distinction between "Alice" and "Alice's". Alice is the person, and Alice's is her house.<p>For example, you you'd say "JCPenney stock is up by 32 cents this week," but you'd also say, "I bought this shirt at Penney's." | null | null | 41,790,919 | 41,787,647 | null | [

41,791,358 | comment | thangalin | 2024-10-09T18:54:34 | null | UNICODE and ASCII apostrophes are a bit absurd. For KeenQuotes[1], my library to automatically curl straight quotes, there's an Apostrophe type that defines variations on how to convert a straight apostrophe to a curled one. The main issue is that most suggestions are to use &rsquo;, which isn't semantically correct[2], and at one point Michael Everson noted, "the alphabetic property should be restored to U+02BC"[3]. I've bucked the x27, U+2019, and rsquo trend with:<p><pre><code> /** No conversion is performed. */
CONVERT_REGULAR( "'", "regular" ),
/** Apostrophes become MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE ({@code &#x2bc;}). */
CONVERT_MODIFIER( "&#x2bc;", "modifier" ),
/** Apostrophes become APOSTROPHE ({@code &#x27;}). */
CONVERT_APOS_HEX( "&#x27;", "hex" ),
/** Apostrophes become XML APOSTROPHE ({@code &apos;}). */
CONVERT_APOS_ENTITY( "&apos;", "entity" );

I think that it's fine to break things as long as you make a semantic version change _and_ provide automated tooling for upgrading old code. If you can't build this tool, that is a strong negative signal for both versions of the language.<p>What I don't like about say, c, is that it has various backward compatible additive dialects like c11 vs c99. I personally don't agree that c11 and c99 are the same language in spite of the backwards compatibility and I think it makes the entire ecosystem worse. At some point there needs to be a successor rather than just piling on to old broken designs. I would prefer a better FFI or other tools to interface with legacy code in the new dialect. | null | null | 41,790,407 | 41,788,026 | null | null | null | null |

41,791,386 | comment | int_19h | 2024-10-09T18:56:52 | null | Esperanto is still frustratingly complex with regard to phonemes for an international language. I think most speakers of many European languages don't realize just how complex their phonologies are on average. Slavic languages probably take the cake there with stuff like 5-consonant clusters that can even include sequences of plosives and affricates, but then you also have Germanic languages (and French!) with their insanely large vowel inventories. Compared to <i>that</i>, Esperanto is relatively simple, but when you look outside of Europe, having 3-consonant clusters or phonemic contrast between plosives and affricates at the same place of articulation (e.g. "t" vs "t͡s") is very unhelpful.<p>That said, it's still a massive improvement on English phonologically. Even if you only consider the simpler American varieties, the three-way æ/ɐ/ɑ distinction alone (as in bat vs but vs bar) is a huge WTF for anyone coming from a typical 5-vowel system. And then you have consonants like θ and ð that don't have clear 1:1 counterparts in most other languages, often not even as allophones of something else that you could point at.<p>Still, if you want to see what a more modern take on the concept might look like, I believe Globasa (<a href="https://www.globasa.net/eng" rel="nofollow">https://www.globasa.net/eng</a>) is the most active project along those lines. Of course, realistically, the likelihood of it actually being adopted as the universal language is effectively nil, but then that's also the case for Esperanto. | null | null | 41,788,256 | 41,787,647 | null | [

41,791,389 | comment | fwip | 2024-10-09T18:57:19 | null | Recently, I saw somebody writing that in their projects, they define a Glossary.txt of terms, and then set up their tooling to flag any use of an identifier that isn't a word or defined in the Glossary. (Allowing also for compound words like camelCase and snake_case, of course). So in their project they could define `pid: process identifier [...]`, and then their tooling would be allow a variable named `new_pid`.<p>Upsides: consistent vocabulary in your project, a centralized place to look up jargon, and a subtle friction to avoid adding new terms that people might not immediately grok.<p>I wish I could remember the source; because it sounded like a nice setup to steal. | null | null | 41,790,140 | 41,788,026 | null | null | null | null |
41,791,390 | comment | iforgotpassword | 2024-10-09T18:57:34 | null | This is gonna sound a little pejorative, but I've seen it at barber shops and little stores where my bet would be on ignorance rather than intentionally trying to imply anything. The guy next door did it too so it must be right. | null | null | 41,790,566 | 41,787,647 | null | null | null | null |
41,791,391 | comment | enragedcacti | 2024-10-09T18:57:42 | null | Agreed entirely, though I don't think a different set of facts is a particularly hard hill to climb. Possibly as simple as "the plaintiff makes products that aren't games and/or Apple directly competes with the plaintiffs offerings" e.g. Hey or Spotify. Finding that plaintiff who also has a ton of money and has a controlling interest who is at least as hardheaded as Tim Sweeney is a whole different issue, especially since the Automattic guy is so busy right now. | null | null | 41,776,829 | 41,769,657 | null | null | null | null |

41,791,395 | comment | mindslight | 2024-10-09T18:57:55 | null | There is a quite simple fix that already applies to the IRAs that most people use as their main tax deferral - if you take a loan using your IRA as collateral, that loan is considered a distribution from the IRA, and is thus taxed. Requiring capital gains to be realized when an asset is used as collateral wouldn't be nearly as problematic as you're making out. For example, if someone's company appreciates to $50M and they then wish to turn some of that abstract value into concrete cash, then yes it's time to pay some taxes. Those taxes can simply be paid with some of the money from the loan too, you know. | null | null | 41,783,931 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |
