Its the same reason why the people who do the actual hard and deadly work get paid the least. This is true EVERYWHERE.

Most people only measure success as something like being a B or Trillion dollar company, and thats part of the reason in a different way why nobody pays for FOSS.

I think optional arguments are a broken idea, because the optional value may be sensible or correct most of the time, but there will be a time when that good value suddenly becomes wrong. The effort to FIX this mistake now results in a lot

Trump cant even send his own emails... just stop and think of that. How is it possible that out of the millions of Americans, a guy who cant even read or send his own emails managed to work his way to the top of political system.

How do they measure this ? Im asking because everywhere i look at the UK, i see the complete opposite. A perfect example is HS2, the price has more than doubled and they delivered far less than half.

Prices may drop, but wages drop even further and the compound effect of local government subsidies and loses when competition dies means everyone loses because everything in the local area dies.

A war wont happen because Americans are too lazy. Just look how the cities are built, the vast majority simply refuses to walk. To control the population one only has to deny them fuel, and everything else freezes. In older times, everyone

If a person cant handle typing a 8 character var name and can only handle short names that are 3 chars, then you have a much bigger problem.

For me an emulator works to simulate the hardware which is very different from translating API calls. THe result may appear to be same, but the approach is very different.

The USA is not wealthy, some people and corporations are wealthy, most people are not. BIG difference. I like to think of holidays and work / life balance as a measure of wealth. Rich people can take time away from work because they ca

Well theres not much point in just parsing a large json file, there will always be more work which cant be done using SIMD and that work time will be significantly larger than the portion spent parsing.

Of course you can, but theres a reason why people like IDES where they can point and click to select and run tests rather than typing names.

Most people actually write small amounts of code in a day, saving a single character here and there typing hardly matters. Its a saving that amounts to seconds for a days work. More characters on the other hand prevents many potential types

Because if mutable is a sub type of immutable, it wouldnt be right to give a mutable value when the receiver expected immutable values. The same is also true if one reverses the relationship, the mutable operations should not be defined on

What i dont understand is why does everything have to be so brief. Take car and cdr there is only one character difference, more character differences is a good thing not bad.

Its going to be very boring when every bit of art is the "same", every tv and movie will have the same story. Actually many movies and tv shows are boring because they all run the same formula.

Exactly SOME, most of the other stuff where the CPU spends a lot of time is not. Most code is boring if do this else do that, its quite rare to actually process a lot of parallel data.
