Esperanto sounds and feels too Spanish. If you prefer to replace English supremacy with Spanish-ish supremacy, be my guest.

Speaking of which, there is radio silence about the AIMA 4e in the community. No one appears to talk about it, no one appears to use it, no appears to be praising it, or criticizing it. It doesn't exist. Fine then.

What is that conf format? Looks neither YAML, nor JSON. (if your conf files are not a standard format, this project is likely not going to go anywhere IMHO). edit: Apparently non-standard [0]. [0] https://github.com/hashicor

> Do you remember printing in 2000? Yes I do. No there were no "literally every printer was suffering". 1995-2000 was a perfectly fine era of B&W desktop laser printing (others can chime in about how it was before 1995). Go

First figure is a joke. As many in the comments have pointed out about the actual situation, the two process models in the figure need to be swapped (better yet: replace ML model with the words "no rhyme or reason ad-hoc BS"). As

This is a nitpick on "... not a single ..." claim by GP. GP is otherwise right. First figure in the article is a joke. And that makes the article a joke. Plenty of waterfalls out there. Even more non-waterfalls, aware of iterative

I agree (was just oversimplifying). I'm starting to think the biggest selling point for Java and dotNET platforms is, not platform-independence, but code obfuscation. In mid-1990s closed source was big, and Java provided a platform to

Tangential, but I just learned (TIL) that C is platform-independent in the following way, compared to Java: - C is "write once, compile everywhere, run everywhere" - Java is "write once, compile once, run everywhere"

I anyone is selling me unlimited drive storage today, then I have a 1000 yottabyte bridge to upload to you. There is no such thing as an unlimited drive storage offer.

On further thought, two high vents, two low vents. Winter: lower vents on (one inlet, one outlet). upper closed. Summer: upper vents on (one inlet, one outlet). lower closed. The vents should be far apart to ensure cirulation (definitely no

By vent I meant both in and out (but one vent only doing one thing at a time). On more thought, I guess making hot air exit from top is always easier. So no need to switch: air comes in from the bottom vent (hot in winter, cool in summer) a

Because hot air rises. If cool air came in from the bottom vent, all the cool air will accumulate in the bottom half of the room, hot air accumulates in the top half. When you stand up, your face feels hot, feet are cold.

Plan your circulation: in every room, one high vent, one low vent, both with smart open/close, Winter: warm air comes in from the bottom vent, goes out from the top vent Summer: cool air comes in from the top vent, goes out from the bo

There should be platform-independent abstraction that is not backed by the big three (AWS, GCP, Azure), and preferably neither by the less big N. That abstraction should allow you to develop serverful, and allow you to go serverless with mi

What you're describing sounds like a binary blob masquerading as C header files.

Why would you check-in generated code and not the meta code? > Eventually, the checked-in code gets changed. Doesn't have to be. Especially with giant headers like in AMDGPU, it should be much easier to change the meta-code if there

I'm not saying a line-of-code calculating program like cloc should change its behavior. I'm talking about the right way (IMO) of assessing the software complexity of the codebase. And I'm also talking about the fact that it i

Wow, thanks for opening my eyes. Time to clear out the next two years so I can learn half a dozen special snowflake randos that contribue ZERO to the problems and projects I'm working on.

Yes. Despite being an avid code minimalism and refactoring advocate, I have zero problems with auto generated code size, as long as the size of "the source that generated the code" is reasonable. Here's how I count the size o

Rust, and Go, and Julia, and D, and Swift, and what not, should have a shouting and fighting match with one another. When they are done, they can let me know who won and then I'll take that language a bit more seriously. In the meantim

This is great. I'm definitely going to keep Julia in mind the next time my languages self-review comes up, in about 2030. Could even happen as early as 2029.

Thanks. For context, as somewhat of an outsider, I knew about Crockford 'JS: The Good Parts' and knew the community cared about working within the limits of a sane "subset" of JS. A few years later, I hear Typescript is

(edit 4: my comment is off-topic, sorry) Mathjax reminds me of the AJAX hype. What happened to it? These days no one talks about AJAX. There was material design a few years later but that was just the looks. Is AJAX now replaced with React.
