Do it as a side project. Or better cross between two -- game, animated story telling -- so many options. Blender designers are also doing fine.

And then how does that compare with other jobs? That possibly can be said for negotiation for 90% employees in any field too.

Now compare it with real life gossiping. And things won't look that bad to you.

Database crashing on a hosted service is such a rate event unless you mess it up yourself running rouge queries. No surprise there. It doesn't have to be AWS though. Can be Digital Ocean or anything else.

Good point. AI not only has to write the code, but also has to understand what existing code does, and then change it on request. If it doesn't understand its own code -- some human has to do that stuff. And maintenance is 90% of the w

Nim is garbage collected, thus is a higher level language but doesn't fit the high performance low overhead of "systems programming" requirement. While Zig is manual memory managed like C and nearer to the core, but harder to

Right. I calculated what 5m/day converts into. And it's like 60 req/sec. Considering non even distribution and spikes, I would assume its like 200req/sec.

I was thinking of it recently. Does it still run on modern Windows? Has anything new arrived as its alternate?

Right. Plus responsiveness. Terminal apps have faster response time than GUIs. And when someone is typing like 10 chars per seconds it matters. The usecase is different between terminal vs GUI. Where in GUI you look - choose - decide and cl

Wanted to hear this. This had been my experience too. But no one on the net seem to talk about it. It was always "we are stuck with mainframe due to politics..." But this isn't about mainframe vs Java. I have a feeling it&#x2

You need all those error check code if you want to recover from error -- regardless of whether the error is coming from exception or value. If you don't want to recover, just throw it down the stack that will exit, then can you do that

For comparison : Pluto is 40 AU from sun, against P9's 400 AU. 10 times further. And 6 times mass of earth. Where Uranus and Neptune are x15 of earth. Inclination 6 degrees are comparable with other planets.

Game developers tell a different story. But you can find on net whatever you seek, whatever you are looking for. > Which is why as GC algorithm reference counting is only for toy implementations. That's what I heard from last decade

Right Java made GC popular. And right now Rust is making reference counting, borrow-owner popular. This is what I am observing. That languages get popular is no surprise. But what was a little bit surprising for me was that the tech the lan

Which one would you say is a relatively better bytecode interpreter? I was looking for one.

We have gone full circle with GCs. It was reference counting in the 80s and 90s. And then tracing GC people stepped in. "Reference counting is worse of both worlds. It's slower than GC because all these memory have to be touched!&

We need to revive the ad free, commercial interest free Internet of the 90s. It will be small in size, but so was the internet back then. Someone should come up with a pub-sub distribute micro blogging service like how emails work.

Not really CGI, but use FCGI instead. Ruby, python, PHP every server side tech use FCGI at the backend, only exception being stacks that have built in webserver [Java]. FCGI works mostly like cgi, but the program doesn't terminate afte

You need an IDE for Java. That language is built for IDE. The requirement is a little bit less for some other popular languages.

It's not about lower spec machines. It's more about using far less resources on very much capable machines, and leave the other resources for other processes, as long as there is a way of doing so.
