I'm really unlikely at this point to use zig or even less likely to use rust. But as an embedded firmware guy I'm happy to see people working again to advance the state of the art of actual low level compiled languages. That stopp

If you listen to the C++ people it's obvious they think the incompatible changes are a terrible mistake. They can't undo them but they're adamant no other breaking changes be allowed. They don't want things to get worse

I'm in my 60's. My observation is people that pick up friends at work during their career always have a job, get recruited for jobs, they survive layoffs more often. And deal with stress at work better when things get shitty. So i

Walter Bright says he was able to implement modules in C with 10 lines of code. That probably works with C but it'd make C incompatible with C++. Most people think that's reason enough not to do it. I think breaking compatibility

Using an arena with an event loop and where persistent stuff is always copied has seemed really robust to me. When the event exits the handler resets the arena.

I think the proper thing is a judge issues and order for them to stop doing that. And when they do it again someone spends a weekend in jail.

One of my thoughts is you can have the FTC and IRS issue rules about what qualifies as first sale and doesn't. Anything that fails the company has to count as inventory with a 20 year depreciation schedule. And they're required to

What's terrible about const in C is you'll end up casting non const pointers to const ones all over the place thus blowing holes in the already weak type system.

I feel increasingly annoyed with the idea that C can never have new keywords. As if that's some sort of huge problem with existing code bases.

One thing I've learned is redlining also meant that if a black, Mexican, or Asian family moved onto your street no one else on the block could get a home loan. Which meant you couldn't refinance, get a second mortgage. And if you

I think it's fair to say that some of the rust belt cities decline is due to the iron ore running out in the great lakes region. And some of it was the rentier capitalists attempts to break unions.

My suspicion is battery life estimating is complicated and proprietary. So your depreciation due to wear depends on both the rate of charge and the rate of discharge. My best guess is they shoot for a discharge rate of roughly C3. Meaning t

I feel like the problem with the current EV offerings is they are basically higher end cars with repair bills you'd expect. Not like a lower end commuter car. I also think the race to add more and more features to cars means the cost o

I think I roughly guess if you're using electrolyticly generated hydrogen to make ammonia it'd take about 10kwh/kg of electricity. If you can get wholesale renuabes at $0.05/kwh that'd be about $0.50/kg energy

That's close to my guesstimates of about $0.10/kwr. So I tend to believe it. The important thing is battery storage is competitive with peaking plants over a period of hours. And lowest cost when it comes to short term supplies on
