@shadowcat_mst My least favourite part of Python by far is the naming and binding model. Also, it’s hilarious how «explicit is better than implicit» also has implicit variable declarations of all things.
@ChristinGorman Another thing I think is good about the Norwegian system is that there are no out of order elections: if a government falls to a vote of no confidence, you’re still stuck with the same parliament, so the no confidence majority is then basically stuck with forming a new one.
@fasterthanlime Unrelated, but I am reminded of my all time favourite Smalltalk method, Object>>become: which lets you in place replace all references to an object with some other random object. If you did it on a small int on the old ST I learned it in the interpreter would SEGV. Good times.
@ChristinGorman Another similarity with the act of programming itself is that they’re both practical skills. You can read yourself better at the practical parts, you have to go out and actually do it (and fail lots) to improve.
@krikkert Når jeg jobba med BL snakka vi om at vi egentlig hadde en port fra programmeringsspråket «norsk juss» til Smalltalk av (~halve) straffeprosessloven og noen andre lover.
@DoremusSchafer Det kan man nok si, men jeg mistenker at denne typen opplegg er mye, mye vanligere enn man kunne tro. Ressurssituasjonen i både politiet og kriminalomsorgen er nok så stram at denne type en til en tiltak har utrolig høy terskel.
@forsberg Spør du ikke får du ikke, er det vel noe som heter. Men jeg hadde vel ikke vurdert det som enormt sannsynlig at de får det som de vil, sånn i utgangspunktet? Handler vel uansett mest om å markere standpunkt før det uunngåelige resultatet.
