Have no idea why people dow vote you, you are obvously correct abiut javascript being popular because its popular, not because it is a good tool in isolation. Besides,Isn't typescript developed by the same people who made C# and also t

But syntactic sugar is important though. Arguably one of the biggest downsides of c++ is that it has tons of features without there being a syntactic sugar for using them, which in turn makes them less attractive

Meh, software should be designed around being efficient from the start. Doing it as a 'post-process' will most likely result in just another layer of semi-grifting "specialists" that will come up with over complicated &q

Being obtuse is when you don't accept currently popular bounds of abstractions are God given axioms.

Pedantry. Yes you are running your code on the cpu, but you are using opengl defined api to do so. Having a text generation and parsing, or having a function calls passed to/from drivers- those a simply implementation details

As in: based on physical one, where the perceived abstractions aren't completely arbitrary solely on the discretion of programmer, but come from some observable fact.

It always surprising to me when people on programming related forum, a discipline that in a sense is all about viewing the world trough different levels of abstractions, get defensive when exposed to the fact that real world also do have t

But that's not inherent due to gpus completely revolutionizing their aproach every generation, is it? The main difference is that with cpu, the translation unit is hidden inside the cpu itself. With gpus, the translation is moved from

...But literally the exact same is the case for CPUs and yet we do have public and constant instruction set for decades now? Altough ofcourse CPU's instruction are also just a frontend api that behind the scenes is implemented using mi

I agree. My point is that I just feel like "but someone please think of the ̶ ̶c̶h̶i̶l̶d̶r̶e̶n̶ memory safety" argument is over blown. There are ways to eliminate majority of those issues in cpp as well, but people simply don&#x2

Imo it can go both ways; What You are saying isn't wrong, but on the other hand, AI tools will make the job of generalists easier, as they can learn/use new tools faster and can have reasonable performance without the need of hav

This is too reductive. The 'we analyzed the issue and decided it won't be fix' Is NOT the same as 'we don't cate about this, go talk to some other team and maybe they'll fix it'. Deciding something is no

They said 'go ask them' a out why they decided to close the issue (which also implies that someone went over this already), not 'go ask them because we simply don't care to look', as your comment seem to imply...

Eh, calling an embedded web-view a 'screet google browser' smells a bit clickbait'ish. In situations where it bypasses things like parental control its fair to bring it up as an issue, but it's not exactly a 'vulner
