Alone at last, I think. The fact is that I don't want to be alone with him,not on a bed. I'd rather have Serena there too. I'd rather play Scrabble
Irony in the "Alone at last", as she really hates it. She'd rather have Serena there, in all hypocrisy of her misery, she'd rather go through the ceremony -- in the end none is best, men are men, any sort of rape is uncomfortable for her. The men have not changed.

"What would you like?" he says, still with that lightness, as if it's amoney transaction merely, and a minor one at that: candy, cigarettes."Besides hand lotion, you mean," I say."Besides hand lotion," he agrees."I would like..." I say. "I would like to know.
This shows the disconnect between the understanding of the severity of the situation. He is still playing with her when she is in fear of her own death, as if it is a simple and equal transaction.

y arms around him.It's only a job, he said, trying to soothe me.
Men don't understand, he is patronising her in the way that a job is not just a job but a sense of power, of individuality and a duty, which Serena Joy keeps trying to find in her knitting and in her garden.

by using symbols as keys, you will be able to use the implicit conversion of a Mash via the #to_hash method to destructure (or splat) the contents of a Mash out to a block
Eh? The example below:
symbol_mash = SymbolizedMash.new(id: 123, name: 'Rey') symbol_mash.each do |key, value| # key is :id, then :name # value is 123, then 'Rey' endseems to imply that this is possible (and does an implicit conversion) because it defines
to_hash. But that's simply not true, as these 2 examples below prove:``` main > symbol_mash.class_eval { undef :to_hash } => nil
main > symbol_mash.each {|k,v| p [k,v] } [:id, 123] [:name, "Rey"] => {:id=>123, :name=>Rey} ```
``` main > s = 'a' => a
main > s.class_eval do def to_hash chars.zip(chars).to_h end end => :to_hash
main > s.to_hash => {a=>a}
main > s.each Traceback (most recent call last) (filtered by backtrace_cleaner; set Pry.config.clean_backtrace = false to see all frames): 1: (pry):85:in
__pry__' NoMethodError: undefined methodeach' for "a":String ```

The discussion here can get very fast-paced. I am trying to periodically pause it to allow new folks, or people who don't have quite as much time, to catch up. Please feel free to comment requesting such a pause if you would like to contribute but are having trouble following it all.
Why is it necessary to pause Can't new person post their question/comment even if it's in reply to comment #10 and the latest comment happens to be comment #56? There's no rule against replying/discussing something that is not the very latest thing to be posted in a discussion!
Possibly due to lack of a threaded discussion feature in GitHub? I think so.
Threads would allow replies to "quick person" A to go under their comment, without flooding the top level with comments... thus alowing "new person" B to post a new comment, which in so doing creates a new thread, which can have its own discussion.

This leads to duplicated effort and ultimately small differences between common interactions.
How does it cause that?

(Note that lowering the intermediary fees can have a multiplier effect on creator disposable income. For example, if you make $100K in revenue and have $80K in costs, cutting out a 50% take rate increases your revenue to $200K, multiplying your disposable income 6x, from $20K to $120K.)

Adding to the accepted answer, if you happen to need to use a type guard against a mixin, you'll get this error too, since the is operator doesn't behave as an implements would.

the generic means "give me one of each function a -> Boolean" so if any of those functions doesn't exist, then the generic doesn't exist.

Another problem was the ambiguity of RFC 3066 regarding the generative syntax. The idea of "language-dash-region" language tags was easy enough to grasp; most users didn't read RFC 3066 directly or consider the unstated-but-realized implication that other subtags might sometimes occur in the second position.

Very slow, very cheap shipping via Royal Mail. Royal Mail advertises an ‘online’ international 12 week ’no rush’ service (not trackable). The price of the service is dependant on weight. It may be possible for international shipping to be achieved for around £15 GBP, may be even less! (This is not a typing error). If you are interested in this service you will need to contact us before the campaign ends.
Why do we need to contact you before the campaign ends if we want cheap shipping? Why wouldn't we want cheap shipping? What will shipping be if we don't choose that? How do we choose that? Why can't we choose shipping directly after the campaign ends?

I don't myself understand what's going on, it clearly has something to do with source maps, but may also have to do with other sprockets changes.

I don't really understand what's going on. Clearly source maps have something to do with it -- a source map feature that doesn't handle SCSS very well, apparently.

Defaults names are given to steps without the :id options, but these might be awkward sometimes.
Why would those default names ever be awkward?
If you the default name is whatever comes after
step:step :default_namethen why can't you just change that name to whatever you want?
To answer my own question: I think you can do that, as long as the name is the 1st argument to
step. But below I noticed an example where aSubprocesswas the 1st argument instead, and so it needs a name in this case:step Subprocess(DeleteAssets), id: :delete_assetsWhy are they inconsistent about calling it name or id? Which one is it? I guess it's an id since that's what the key is called, and since there's an
Id()helper to reference a task by its id.

It's hard to say why people think so because you certainly don't need to know category theory for using them, just like you don't need it for, say, using functions.

The rsync and sleep commands (the sleep is just an example) are run through exec to prevent the creation of zombie processes if I kill the parent script while they're running, and each potentially-long-running command is wrapped in its own subshell so that when exec finishes, it won't terminate the whole script.
