We live in a society where there are more metrics than money. The entire notion of corporate amorality is a thin veil that people use to hide their own unethical and immoral behavior. That's why I made the comment that layoffs are th

If the leadership mistakes lead to the loss of livelihood and healthcare of thousands of employees because of their mistakes, yes, they should be included in the firings, or strongly considered for them - more so than any of the people gett

While it's true that the "state" of a future is only mutated in the poll() implementation, it's up to the author of the future implementation to clone/send/call the Waker provided in the context argument to sig

The Stars are Legion and Alien Clay are the two best sci-fi books I've read in the last year and I don't think they've shown up on any lists, although the latter is another first contact book by the author of Children of

This reads like Apple Stockholm syndrome. I haven't bought a device with less than 1TB storage in a decade. The users that you're talking about would be happy with a Chromebook or iPad, not a $1k+ machine that ostensibly is for &q

iirc the big thing is they use LIDAR/RADAR in addition to camera sensors, Tesla is hellbent on only using cameras. Also, Waymo works.

When a proc macro fails you get an error at the site where the macro is used, and a stack trace into the proc macro crate. You can even use tools to expand the proc macro to see what went wrong (although those aren't built in, yet). De

> But most developers refuse to write anything more than C++98. I think the bigger mistake is equating memory safety with C++11 smart pointers. They buy you a little, but not the whole buffet. There are a lot of C++ developers that thin

I strongly disagree that SWEs have "taken advantage of and diminished" anything. The practice of ignoring PE licensure extends well beyond software and was well established as nonsense before the dotcom boom. > How many SWEs ha

The ones that matter, do this. In many states if you are building anything for a government or business where lives are at stake, a PE is involved and there's legal liability for the engineers that certify something. But the whole PE

Job titles exist in the context of the business and don't mean a lot outside that context, and putting stock into it is not worthwhile. I have worked at businesses where "senior engineer" was equivalent to a "staff engin

In the US there's no such protection and it's actually a good thing. We have the formal designation of "professional engineer" (PE) but outside of civil and mechanical engineering (and some government work) it's not

That's implementation defined behavior, not undefined behavior. Undefined behavior explicitly refers to something the compiler does not provide a definition for, including "safe defaults."

If you have to go through WSL to mount it, does that really count has a "high quality implementation" in Windows? Windows already has a high performance FUSE alternative called ProjFS.

To the "but why" comments, there are some legitimate questions about backends for LLVM - what targets does gcc support that it is easier to write a frontend for a complex language like Rust than add a backend for the desired targe
