Who cares about the syntax? The real problem is the weak typing.

Normally you'd be right, but D co-opts what the rest of the world accepts as having a well-defined meaning pertaining to OOP to instead represent its hare-brained meta-programming paradigm.

They're like Lisp macros, except instead of generating an AST you're generating text, so it's a huge pain in the ass.

And have completely different computational complexity for all the important operations. Use the right tool for the right task.

Same way you do when you forget the root password on a normal configuration.

That it might be useful for displays at all is mere speculation at this point. Meaningful conjecture on the characteristics of those displays is beyond the scientists doing the research themselves; don't get your hopes up for the reporter

If you don't really care, why was the vast majority of your comment concerning it?

> traces aid debugging, profiling and obviate logging. As a heavy Common Lisp user, coming from an environment where this sort of functionality has been standard for decades, I can easily say that it certainly does not "obviate logging,

It's often a good idea to research how well hardware will work for your intended use before you pay money for it.

Steam is a content distribution platform, not a game engine. Those are dramatically different things.

But what's the high end? What's it like with a few years' experience? What's the distribution?

If it worked about the same but the results were public domain, I'd call that a pretty big win.

Similar things have been done with large displays in the past, though not on consumer hardware.

But if GCC is now C++ as well, then it removes what may have been the motivating characteristic to use it, when clang is for many purposes an otherwise better, more freely licensed, compiler.

It's this kind of complaint that suggests all the unease is a result from resistance to learning new systems, rather than any actual flaw in those systems. NetworkManager operates headlessly, and can be manipulated just fine with nmcli.

"Oh, and because each script runs in less than an hour, we can just say n = 1 hour, and that's a constant, so it simplifies down to instant!" Yeah, that's not how computational complexity works.

I've been running systemd on my computers for a few months now, and it's great. Dramatically accelerates my boot times, easy to configure, and easy to use. The only problem I've ever had is when a daemon doesn't include a systemd unit file,

Isn't that just evidence that your commits aren't granular enough? Certainly, simply backing things up generally won't solve your problem, since good backup procedure can involve offsite storage being hours out of date.

You shouldn't be making commits so monolithic that that becomes an issue.
