Yep, I would say this is one of the worse parts of the German medical system. Many medical professionals don't take mental health that seriously.

I don't think this is really the issue at play here. Rather the engineers wanting to work with Kubernetes, cloud, and other stuff that's hyped, instead of a boring solution that works.

I thought the idea was that we know that sanctions are circumvented this way, but it puts a tax on all dealings. Russia selling oil to India? It's now part of the world oil market, so decreases demand from India for other nations oil.

Ibuprofen is basically the German strategy. It's not super strong, but everything else is only for extreme pain. Get your wisdom teeth pulled? Ibuprofen. Broke some bones? Ibuprofen. Burn victim? Maybe some opiates. The strategy works.

Also proc_macros. Often Rust ends up easier to read than Python due to proc_macro abstractions, too. Serde is a great example for this. Rust is really high-level when you use it correctly. And I rarely need lifetime annotations. Which is es

It does, and I had exactly that same reaction! Regexes are a leaky abstraction, like all of them.

Couldn't have put it better. ROS metastasizes in your system. I'm anti-framework in general though. I think it's better to get a good build system and a good messaging library and do your own stuff.

ROS2 is also not ROS. I believe they fixed some of the mistakes. I'm not sure about catkin though, it's the worst build system I've experienced. And it sure likes to integrate itself everywhere, making it really hard to move

Apart from the fact that it doesn't only solve a lot of security vulnerabilities, but also avoids a lot of bugs, by virtue of having a stricter type system and memory safety.

Sounds like it took 10 years, and probably more people than one research team for that. SW developers are really bad at asking for the right amount of resources.
