Also architecturally suitable for the common case of collecting heterogeneous files in existing and new formats into a single file, as opposed to designing a database schema or a complex container structure from scratch. Any multi-file arch

Guess what, doing a relatively complex but standard task (filtering and aggregating example penguins) with a specialized and ossified library (Pandas) is better than doing it "bare.handed" with basic lists and dicts. More terse, m

AES and RSA had enough public scrutiny to make backdooring backdoors imprudent. The standardization of an obviously weaker option than more established ones is difficult to explain with security reasons, so the default assumption should be

If there is a risk of a 10+ million dollar issue there is also some manager whose job is to overreact when they hear the announcement that someone wants to eliminate thing X, because they know that thing X is a useful part of the systems th

The metaphor near the beginning of the article is a good summary: standardizing cars with seatbelts, but also cars without seatbelts. Since ML-KEM is supported by the NSA, it should be assumed to have a NSA-known backdoor that they want to

If you follow the prescribed procedure and involve all required management, it stops being a beginner's mistake; and given reasonable rollback provisions it stops being a mistake at all because if nobody knows what the thing is it cann

It makes enough sense for someone to implement it (sans hackers in hoodies and stage lights: text or voice chat is dramatic enough).

Perl was immensely popular, but it isn't necessarily enough to qualify for the personal "bubble" of languages one learns. It was a good choice of proven, general purpose interpreted scripting language for you in a time whe

Personally, back when Perl 6 was harmless vaporware, I never found a place for Perl 5. For moderately advanced text processing with regular expressions, supposedly its strong point, it was far less elegant and concise than AWK at the low en

The "coding error" is a somewhat deliberate choice to fail eagerly that is usually safe but doesn't align with the need to do something (propagation of the configuration file) without failing. I'm sure that there are mis

It can be really bad, especially if the enemy deliberately attacks when you really need your site and/or makes you look evil.

More generally XML is so thoroughly out of fashion that it is perceived as driving resume-driven architecture backwards in time, into an unfamiliar "dark age" of deliberate engineering decisions.

Wrong question, an unreadable "proof" goes nowhere and comes from nowhere. The painfully staggering density of undefined concepts, novel jargon and informal language in the paper obscures the difference between old ideas, possibly

Most of those people should still keep their ignorance to themselves, without bothering actual programmers, like they did before LLM hype convinced them that "sufficiently plausible" is good enough. A similar trend: the popularity

Complaining about inadequate tests and documentation should be a very efficient and effective strategy against slop.

"Emmental", also misspelled "Emmenthal", remains the common name in Italy, non to mention the name of various imitations.

Someone might be confusing the large holes of Emmentaler (and imitations thereof) with the smaller and sparser ones of Gruyère.

There's also a tight branding and trademark component. I remember a major ad campaign when proper imported "Emmental" was rebranded as "Emmentaler" because the former name was becoming generic, and a related ad camp

ECS hype and the traditional make a game/make an engine dilemma shouldn't be considered reasons to avoid the Fyrox library (or other Rust projects). Are you trying to tell something more logical? Does the "Rust gamedev scene&

MOF is only "simple" because it is lower level than UML proper. A lot of "not quite the same" would come to light if two different people attempted to rebuild the respective UML subsets they care about.

I'd make the opposite argument about educational value. If you learn to compile libraries and programs you have, so to speak, passed an exam: you are ready to "make games" with confidence because you know what you are doing

The article describes evidence for a concrete, straightforward organizational decay pattern that can explain a large part of this miserable failure. What's "self-serving" about such a theory? My personal "guess" is
