You're supposed to either await a Task, or to block on it (thus blocking the underlying OS thread which probably eats a couple of megabytes of RAM). It's a completely different system more akin to what Go has been using.

I don't think .NET has virtual threads (async/await doesn't count), and it definitely doesn't have anything similar to ZGC/Shenandoah — two garbage collectors that provide sub-millisecond pauses with heaps up to the

I don't know which system you're on, but GNU bc does not support this flag. On the other hand, bash and zsh support this: bc -l <<<'(2/3) * 3 - 2' edit: neither does busybox.

Because you really don't want heavily polluting industries (oil refineries, chemical plants, steel mills, etc) close to a big city.

It is somewhat of a problem: the development team is very small, they don't take outside contributions (so nobody outside the core team really builds up expertise over time), and the vast majority of tests are proprietary. I hope they

It's not just ntfs. I tested this a few months ago in a pretty unscientific manner using ~50 million files in one directory. btrfs was unusable (not only that particular directory, but the whole filesystem became noticeably slower). ex

And it's still not as cross-platform as Java is, or pretty much all other tech stacks. FreeBSD and commercial UNIXen are not supported at all. If you prefer to develop on macOS or Linux (hi there), you don't get access to many Win

That feeling is mutual. I very much prefer boring Java or .NET developers who are all supposedly stuck in the 90s to hipsters chasing after the latest JS fad of the week.

They didn't. A proper fix would require getting rid of null altogether in favor of ADTs or something similar. I work with C# daily and nulls can still slip through the cracks, although it's definitely better than @NotNull and frie

Services like Fastmail provide clear step-by-step instructions on what you need to configure. Typically you need to add some DNS records (MX, SPF, DMARC, DKIM), and that's it. It sounds way worse than it is and it takes 10 minutes tops
