A few years ago, I sat in an Italian airplane with the cockpit door open. The pilot and copilot spent most of the trip speaking to each other, using their hands to emphasize their words (if you've ever seen two Italians arguing passion

How locked is it? How hard would it be to use it for a DDoS attack, for instance? Or for an internal DDoS attack? If I were working at OpenAI, I'd be worrying about these things. And I'd be screaming during team meetings to get th

A fork? Getting any momentum behind this might be really hard.

I think you're getting it mixed. The corporation funds almost exclusively the browser. The non-profit doesn't fund the browser.

If my memory serves, the "programmer" was essentially a mathematician, working on a single algorithm, while a "system developer" was building an entire system around it.

Note that games are based on main loops + events, for which JITs are optimized, while compilers are typically single run-to-completion, for which JITs aren't. So this might be a very different performance profile. *edit* I had initiall

Yeah, the term has changed meaning several times. Early on, "systems programmer" meant basically what we call a "developer" now (by opposition to a programmer or a researcher).

I can imagine C# being annoying to integrate into some CIs, for instance. Go fits a sweet spot, with its fast compiler and usually limited number of external dependencies.

Absolutely. I'm having this problem at the moment.

If my memory serves, both SQL and HTML are indirect fallouts from an AI summer, too.

Well, the fact that Trump is breaking all the treaties one after the other are certainly not encouraging for markets, but there are also many signs that suggest that: 1. Trump is planning to deflate the dollar (not the least of which being

Maybe in your example, but I long ago gave up on having stack traces with any meaningful async Python code. Is it the frameworks' fault? Presumably. But the end result is the same for me. Which is a shame, because Python stack traces a

There's a little fear in France, because the head of the far right party is the daughter of the former head, and the aunt of the rising star. Since that party seems not unlikely to win the next Presidential elections, we might end up w

He seems happy with his current work, so I'd say it ends well for him. Academia did lose one (more) brilliant researcher, though, so it doesn't end well for academia.

You make a point. However, I'm not sure how it'd be possible. The US has been funded by an insane level of debt for the last 60+ years. Debt that might come calling quite soon, according to Donald Trump's own treasure secreta

I'm almost certain that this is exactly how it works in processor design. You start building your compiler before the processor is finished, and test it with the emulator. At least, in quantum computing, that's how it works.

I'm going to assume that you're speaking of monarchies in which the monarch is the actual ruler, rather than UK, Belgium, the Netherlands or Canada for instance, right? In that case, I'd say that a monarchy is essentially dic

This kind of reasoning made sense before the 1938 Munich agreements. By now, we have to assume that giving a dictator a victory will only fuel his next campaign. Especially since it's a campaign for which Russia has been preparing for

I know what you mean (I think). That's probably the main reason I left what was otherwise my best job. I knew that if I stayed longer, I'd never be employable anywhere else, both because I'd have stopped learning, and because

Same here. In some cases, brainstorming even kinda works – I mean, it usually gives very bad responses, but it serves as a good duck. Code? Nope.

Friend of mine was working in cryptography. His PhD topic was about proving that a cryptographic scheme was secure (for some definition). It took him two months to break the scheme. Sadly, said scheme was key to the funding of his PhD advis
