You haven't mentioned the dynamic typed languages that I believe should die -- Python and Javascript. The only good use case for dynamic typing is notebooks (niche of R lang) where you're throwing out the code you just wrote after

It's Anubis and it's actually cool and loved project here. It's an open-source Captcha that filters out bots, and it doesn't track you around the web, unlike Google or cloudflare captcha.

Improve software? It's job is to serve video editors, not the other way around. And it's a fun task, I bet there might be a dev or two who's working on that right now. And if someone is ready to pay for them, even better.

Or the whole thing is an "inverse" PR, completely manufacturing the information spread, to get people interested in Tang dynasty. Conspiracy vs. conspiracy.

oook, so if according to your message, the disposals are mostly used by diabetics, then again, what's wrong with them?

What's wrong about syringe disposal? A significant portion of population has diabetes. And even if a drug addict uses it, still better than throwing to the trash, similar to how cigarette disposals are mandatory in typical airplanes.

People often believe what they want to believe, even bending logic and facts towards their desire. We see it all the time in politics, up to the point people vote for literal criminals who want to rip them off and they see it, but they just

A big selling point of Java also was a very strong built-in library, e.g. with red-black trees (TreeMap) and concurrent lock-free zero-mutex queues (ConcurrentLinkedQueue). No wonder competitive coding champions sometimes preferred Java as

I'd say the whole Silicon Valley was almost entirely financed by national security agencies back in its beginning days during the Cold War. Does not mean it's bad.

Reddit is fine, just a small popup at the bottom. Facebook kn the other hand turned off most functions on mobile, e.g. chat. Good thing though if you don't use the chat long enough, friends start using other means of communication.

Full syntax of λλ (from the paper): e ::= v | x | input(p) | let x = e1 in e2 | (e1, e2) | unpack e1 as (x1, x2) in e2 | phase(θ, e) | split(r, e) | unitary(U, (e1, e2)) | output(p) <- e1; e2 v ::= r ↓ ℝ | p

Yes, I heard that plans many times. Same as in another case, people have sworn to leave for Canada, if. No one actually did. I'd be really glad if you do actually, but my hopes are weak.

Linux can, and does, prevent a program to claim any new memory. Like literally malloc() returns null. How program reacts to that is up to the program. Also I know linux has `cgroup_enable=memory` setting in /etc/default/grub,

It's easy -- because companies are people. Management is also people, and sometimes management admit that they may not know what others know. Especially if that management came from the trenches, not and MBA school, so they know very g

It's not 20ms, 1-2 seconds for sure, for Zig LSP. 96GB RAM, 12 vCPU, Linux, desktop.

As far as I understand, IDEs ara way less eager to spend resources onto their own integration if there's an LSP. E.g. last time I tried to code in Zig there was either LSP or nothing.
57.
by deepsun 2mo ago
Unpopular opinion -- LSPs are bad because they introduce latency into coding. For every keystroke, my IDE needs to make request/response with LSP, instead of using its own internal parser/colorer/autocomplete.

Another reason why most countries subsidise their agriculture is because in times of war you don't want your enemy to starve you. That's mostly about high calories foods, not fancy salads though.
