> "The alternative languages" - in this case you're talking about C, 99% of the time. And that's part of the problem. There's no excuse beyond maybe platform support for starting a brand new project in C, when C+

I don't think that is the case. I think the people that wrote this are simply bad programmers. Some of these issues are so obvious that if you've been doing any amount of programming, you should be able to anticipate them, whether

To be honest, the skepticism around non-STEM fields is completely deserved. It's a complete shithole.

There are a lot of comments on that issue demanding Anthropic give the guy the money back, I assume they saw the writing on the wall.

Probably. There are a lot of countries, especially third world ones, with very lax legal systems, not to mention the multitude of countries where law basically doesn't exist.

I think you mean their terms of service which are pretty restrictive and involve(d) a clause that lets them revoke your access to the editor at any time for any reason.

You have, what, WinForms, WinUI, MAUI, and WPF for Windows currently. And that's not counting Win32 or Qt.

Honestly, magit is just a masterclass in UI design. It makes most everything incredibly easy to do while still giving you the ability to tweak things if you need to.

Probably because it's closer to a reimplementation than anything else, and in Emacs you can use libraries with much less friction than in self-contained languages.

They kind of are. Iran has been attacking everyone in the Middle East for decades, occasionally seizing or destroying ships in Hormuz, and funding internal dissent. Things are worse right now, but not that much worse, and the short-term p

Not to mention the various manufacturing nationalisation initiatives by the USA, EU, etc. And while it's a scant hope after Covid, maybe American investment culture will calm down and software engineering ceases to be so overvalued.

It didn't read as AI-generated to me. Subsequent comments did, but this one seems perfectly normal.

Really neat. Out of curiosity, does this need to use the Github API? I hoped something like this could be done with plain http.

Problem is, Emacs is really slow on Windows. If I can get a reasonably fast Lisp IDE on Windows, I'm all for it.

I don't know if Edge supports MV2, but they do have uBlock available and it works just as well as on Firefox.

Good and functioning are not the same thing. Look at North Korea. It's definitely not a failed state, but it's also about as far away from a "good" government as you can get. For most revolutions, the state needs to be u
