Yet, evolution, the foundation of modern biology is easily simulated by any decent coder in 10 minutes - lookup weasel program. The audacity to still claim biology is broadly different than computing is commendable.

Coming from Qml, reading css/html is mind numbingly hard.. Haven't seen any other come even remotely close to the readability of Qml. I am talking generic UI development, not just for browsers. 15 years and I thought someone would

No the tool does not exist. Its medium to long term vision. Our backends are structured on isolated units - what we call "features". Features invoke another features via fully qualified names using a standard Features.send(...). i

And your point is? Laws of probability doesn't discriminate. There is always a probability a planet killer GRB hits us and we all die. Should we take precautions in our everyday life. Or should we wear helmet while walking on the road

If only stating the obvious was a fallacy :) You appear not to have understood probability theory my friend. You will never get 100% in this universe for anything. What if "its a simulation" or "a dream" arguments ensure

Really? Laws of probability works against your argument. Such a basic course in statistics needs to be scrutinized.

This look very promising. We are increasingly using a subset of typescript in our backend so as to be amenable to a tool, in the long run, which can convert the ts subset to rust source code. This project will enable an alternative of that

The tested machine appears big and with 96 vcpu + 384 gb yielding 20k writes sounds too low. Jumping to 60k is very good. But still too small a throughput for what the machine is capable of. Batching ensures you run at cpu & memory spee

It appears you are unfamiliar with "may" coroutines which is a userspace M:N scheduler. Erlang phenomenon mentioned is the same and the behavior is easily reproducible on a normal laptop. "may" defaults to the same numbe

I am now trembling at the thought of warriors who will skin me alive :). Jokes aside, there are use cases for rayon, use cases for tokio async, use cases for "may" coroutines, use cases for a custom scheduling policy, or use cases

What has PhD got to do with anything. Research is research regardless of who does it if using proper scientific method. Such obvious common sense appears not obvious after all.
