But, we already have (exclusively) used car dealerships and private car sales. Once you break it down, dealerships not a combination of businesses that really needs to be together, IMO.

I mean, there is usually a pass to resolve labels, right? So it's not quite that simple. But not far from it.

This comment sort of messed with my brain. We have a somewhat sane definition, but we can’t use said definition because we don’t feel like it, and that makes everything clearer (“language would be impossible”). Feel free to define your own

I feel like you didn't read what they said. There's a ton of things in any large corporation that need to be handled that need software or corporate admin work. Inventory management, logistics, people management software, end user

I like to see innovation in aerospace, but there seems to be a lot of either solution searching for a problem or problems I’d rather not see solved (weaponry). This is one of them. Spinlaunch is another (the Gs). Astra is yet another (“laun

I don't either. On the other hand, it's more of a known quantity than one of these startups.

When I first starting using AWS a few years ago, having known generally what it was for far longer, I was flabbergasted it was at how slow it was to get an instance booted. I expected much less, thinking about things from first principals

The “umpteen rules”, I presume, are the ones for all the languages you know and use, not just Clojure or what have you. I would wager most people don’t work in a single language bubble. It’s a bit optimistic that we’d ever have most languag

Uhm, yes? They elected a comedian with no political experience or ties for f's sake. But I suppose that was some sort of rigged election or he's just a figurehead or something?

That was significantly less funny, I think :(. Regardless of cat vs dog. More just funny dog pictures than ones connected to the status codes.

For concrete comparison, nginx backs something like 40% of the top 10k websites. Caddy is a fraction of a percent.

It stands out because this brand is superior to Tesla in every way, including innovation (because safety is valued), yet somehow Tesla has pranced around falsely claiming to be better at safety than Volvo. The singular redeemable

Making predictions about something that’s only been around in any significant way for a decade and is subject to so many social, political, and economic pressures (extremely chaotic in themselves) is probably pretty fraught.

The thing is, you can trivially implement a form of defer with RAII. Where I work we have a decades old C++ macro called ON_BLOCK_EXIT that people use to clean up C-style things that don't have a destructor. Today it's much better

Copying a table is one thing, copying font style is another, I think.

APUs are AMD-speak for CPU and GPU on the same die (Intel has similar but doesn't call them that). Integrated graphics cards (a misnomer since there is no card -- IGP or iGPU is probably more accurate) may or may not be on the same die

One could just call that work satisfaction or some such thing. No need to overload words.

I absolutely despise that auto route change feature. Whether (but especially) on a motorcycle or in a car. It’s dangerous and it fills me with rage. Also, that software is so non-configurable these days: Is an “Automatically accept better

Oh, come on. It’s a lot, lot closer to bastard than retard or tard. At some point people have to own their own misperceptions.

For all the kvetching about ads I see regarding YouTube, most people really could just pay Google and make it go away. I mean, I don’t like paying for things either, but it’s not worth the headache of ad blockers (which aren’t available on

Hah, everything is the government and government is bad when people want it to be. The government is the thing that makes bankruptcy possible in the first place, and if it didn't exist you'd just have someone hunt you down for rep

Couldn’t there be some flag on the thread that marks it as “P-core only”? Doesn’t seem hard. I don’t known Linux scheduler internals though.

It would be easier to have a frank discussion without using “grooming” where it should not be. Seems to be a lot of that recently, with other words and terms as well, which is sad.

Honestly that really kills my interest I have in the language. That’s not realistically going to happen (a reimplementation) or go well (maintaining a fork) with a (frankly) niche language. I suspect the pool of people who develop locally (

Unfortunately at the the surface, it’s all cranks. The people you see trending on Twitter and such almost seem like an alien species. And then there’s all the advertising for exchanges and such being blatant “get in at the bottom of the pyr

0.1% isn't close to the truth worldwide either, so it's inaccurate regardless.

I wouldn’t expect them to advertise such a thing, but the question is “can they recover from their own mistakes” not “can they recover from mine.” I don’t care if this is with an “account-level restore” or whatever; it shouldn’t be my conce

Particularly useful when you use -e — the virtualenv will only reference your package, not copy the source. Very useful for development and I learned it way too recently.
