By force. There are a lot of people who can't take care of themselves - children. We restrict their freedoms seriously, mostly don't allow them to hurt themselves. If they don't take their shit together in a given period of time you just contain them.
Re:Sum Types in Julia and Rust

Julia enums do not equal to Rust enums. You can achieve that functionality (that a type can be one of a set of cases, type algebra in general) with subtypes. Which is fine I'd say, but there could be terser syntax for it (which is available through packages, and it's slower). Having abstract types which cannot be instantiated is also nice.

Julia is a dynamic language, I don't think having the rigor of a compiled language (probably the most rigorous out there) is a reasonable expectation. It would be nice to have as an external linter service, probably.

Sad to see how apple drones agree with this. It is fair for a hosting company to require a per download fee, but it has nothing to do with ingame purchases.
