After mulling it over a bit, plus seeing a few other response (Php, Ruby, etc) I think the internet is the reason. C, C++, Ada, Basic, Fortran. Those were written assuming they were going to be writing systems code and numerical code. There

It is interesting that so many of the largest languages were developed in a couple year time frame in the early-mid 90s. Python, Javascript, Java, Lua, R. All of these were developed 91-95 and make a bulk of development today.

The insta-banned is I think most likely a bot detection algorithm, which is unfortunate, but not necessarily the fault of the maintainer.

I've never worked at Autodesk, and I don't use CAD. But I see they have a Web version of AutoCAD. I assume there are a bunch of Autodesk employees on Hackernews who can correct me, and I know there's probably a boat load of i

The reporting from the Free Press has been good, if they bring CBS up to their standard it would be an improvement. This is a good thing.

I am torn on this. I have friends who complain that they are engineers, and had to take so much math in school they don’t use. They apparently dont see much value in just the fact they learned it, or the increased knowledge. However, no mat

It is not saying that it is not possible to make C code that is safe enough to be on an airplane. Its that there are languages with additional features which make it easier to have a high confidence. If you can remove entire classes of b

This survey is too vague to be worthwhile. Sure some of these are scary how many people say "yes", but people say yes all of the time to vague sounding pleasantries. When they say "responsible" say specific actions. Shou

I got a playstation over a N64 at the time mainly because the games were cheaper, those prices are accurate to my memory.

I really like Odin as a language. I have tried Rust and Zig as well (of the newer systems languages). I think that Odin has a great niche and a lot of potential in the games industry. If what you need is a systems language with good speed a

EA doing any amount of shenanigans isn't making people sick, killing people, making people homeless or destitute. Their crimes are minor and petty.
