This will end up without wheels and with its frame kicked bent.

Given that Go modules can depend on private interfaces that specify only the methods they need, dependency injection of the pass-dependencies-to-the-constructor style seems almost built in. Not automated as such, but easy.

Steel in particular softens at a much lower temperature than it melts. And it doesn't need to soften much to make a really long thin drill bit bend.

If they have any sense they'll be wearing NBC suits and filtering respirators. They (or their leadership) may not have any sense.

I'm guessing it depends on the kind of sanctions. If dealing with rogues makes you a rogue, internationally, then CIPS may shy away from it.

Trouble is that those statistics are educated guesses. It's not like we have a precise table of fractional causes that could be split up via dice rolls. The first thing the lawyers for the factory would do is challenge the probability

Another way of putting it would be "pretty simple and quick - if you can achieve a completely infeasible number of qubits". That is to say, it's an algorithmic overhang, the knowledge how is available but held back by not kno

Looks similar to the fluffy ice that forms on wood and was recently discovered to be caused by a fungus.

From the language reference > Constant expressions may contain only constant operands and are evaluated at compile time. and a "const" can only be defined with a constant expression. So the difference would be that a "val&

Yes, it is an implementation choice. I feel it's a choice that makes sense, too. But regardless, it's how things work right now in Go.

Fair point. "value" and "var" then, perhaps?

I think it was Fortran which introduced the equivalence between programming variables (that are a mutable piece of memory) and mathematical variables (which describe a relationship). But they aren't really the same. And "variable&

Thankfully the people who make Go do care about conceptual muddles.

That wasn't exactly what I meant. What I meant was - as of right now they are different, and clearly distinct, and it's actually important to unlearn thinking of a const as a var, because they don't do the same thing in pract

No, they are very different conceptually. - A const is an abstracted value. - A variable is an allocated piece of memory.

Detection means there is enough virus physically present in the sample for the detection technology to identify it. Infection requires virus particles to be physically present in transmission vectors (fluids, droplets, etc). There's ge

I wonder if this will improve prospects for battery-electric aviation? (It might not, if it's let down by energy density, for example.)

Now what happens if you pass it a string without a null byte terminator?

Yup, same, I'm 45 and I never heard of the stuff. At a guess, you had to be in the generation that actually watched the Goon Show.

Other thoughts: pure blue is a colour that is representable even in very old colour computers. It's also the only readable pure colour. (I'm guessing, human eyes see it badly, so it intrinsically looks "dark" at full bri

Very unfortunately, "a lot of people are dissatisfied with how things are going" is a circumstance which has a strong tendency to directly cause totalitarianism and authoritarianism. They vote for a Charismatic Guy who will Swee
