Are you sure this isn't a strawman? The recent Dakota pipeline protests for example were very clearly about water safety and building through native burial grounds and other historic native sites. Pretty much every pipeline protest I can think of is more concerned with environmental danger of spills, not reducing oil. And a catastrophic pipeline spill can be much worse than isolated truck spills, though I'd love to know more about research on that front.
There is a clear difference between "I don't want to look at the pipeline" and "pipelines have an established track record of cutting corners and avoiding regulation wherever possible which leads to leaks and spills, leaks and spills cause irreparable damage to the environment including the environment in the middle of our community, and the company is attempting to exploit our already historically exploited community"
It's just standard JS numbers (IEEE-754 doubles), not BigInt.
The distance is accumulated in millimeters, so even if someone somehow scrolled hundreds of kilometers we'd still be far below the 2^53 integer precision limit.
A static class member function would be the same in your example. If you don't have any state to maintain, then that's fine. The reason people use singletons is to manage that state; it's easier to handle it all in a class instance. If you end up having to manage it in a function using globals or static instances somewhere you get the same issues. Also often the object exposed as a Singleton is not the only use of that object.
even better is Entity Framework and how it handles null strings by creating some strange predicates in SQL that end up being unable to seek into string indexes
I use multiple "real" identities so I don't have my real name associated with certain open source projects that involve sensitive things like cryptography etc. This is a huge concern of mine.
I have multiple “real identities”, diagnosed due to trauma. We each want to have our own spaces of interest and experience online.
As a matter of mental health, we really cannot have these overlapping for many reasons, prime among them is that if one part of me becomes aware of another while they’re doing their thing, a
mental “table join” can happen and disturbing memories can be shared which is incredibly destabilizing to the system.
As a wireframe example my programming alter cannot be exposed to the alter who browses cptsd forums or they remember things that cause them to dip from the headspace and we lose their knowledge.
We can’t try to pretend we don’t exist and pretend to be one person either, we did that for years and we ended up having a breakdown and went into a fugue state and moved across country leaving everything behind.
This law would destroy our productivity and contribution to economy or whatever corporacrats care about.
I always wondered if there ever was a standard stream for stdlog which seems useful, and comes up in various places but usually just as an alias to stderr
