@tarta non valeva molto la sua anima Il governo pesa le anime E una farfalla anche bellissima, non pesa molto Al mercato del pesce vendono e comprano a peso Non amano chi la pensa diversamente Segui le leggi del mercato, dicono Non conviene, non t'impicciare, chi te lo fa fare Una farfalla è passata e non c'è più, e chi non l'ha vista non sa Che era bellissima
@renata@mayintoronto@fabio So, when you're in Brazil, how do you talk about brasileiros no externo ? I think it's a pretty big population, about 5m people? That's a big percentage of the total citizenship, around 200m, right? Is it an identity that you embrace, or do you mostly say "I live in Canada" or "I'm Canadian"?
1) your husband's mom 2) your husband's dad 3) wife's mom 4) wife's dad 5) grandma and grandpa (moms parents) 6) grandma and grandpa (dads parents)
Bonus points for aunts and uncles too on both sides.
I'm getting blown away by the differences and I'm not sure if some people are mistaken because they're born afar like I am or if there really are that many differences.
@evan I saw that in your bio, definitely going to take a look. for the working group, will there be a link to join the call on the site? i saw the github, are there any minutes from previous meetings that I can catch up on?
@fabio Do you use "immigrant" here in Canada? I've never heard a Brazilian here call themselves an expatriate. I've also never seen anyone use anything but "immigrant" in French to describe themselves.
Do you use "imigrante" to describe yourself in Brazil?
Helo #JavaScript and TypeScript programmers. (To which I don't count myself, even if I have to use it a bit now and then.)This is an anti-pattern, right?if (foo.indexOf("bar") === 0) { ...}Because if foo does *not* start with "bar", indexOf() will still search through all of foo for "bar". Even if you are only interested in seeing whether foo *starts* with "bar".Or are JavaScript interpeters and JITters clever enough to recognise this and silently turn it into effectively a use of startsWith() anyway? I suspect so. But still, nicer to write it optimally (and more obviously) from the start, right? Like this:if (foo.startsWith("bar") { ...}

@eniko it's interesting to see how things shape up differently depending on perspective and use case. To embed the RSS feeds of my Fedi accounts on my website, the JS is just a trivial “call this XSLT on this XML”, and I would actually do without the JS if there was a way to, but I'm limited to the number of entries in the RSS and I don't even think it's possible to get user-specific tags via RSS at all. OTOH, once one has to use the API, JS for everything (like in your case) makes more sense.
