Ah, I disagree. Saying "F2018 conformance will be fixed" implies that the GCC acknowledges "F2018 conformance" is a thing that needs to worked be on and not just a ruse by Bill to get free work done. The maintainers res

Yeah, I thought Bill Long from Cray was joking at first. But his follow-up messages are plain passive aggressive > Inquiry from the original site: "Does GCC provide a timeline for when they will conform to F2018?"

Yes, the child can get everything they want from the parent. The parent must sacrifice it all. Then, when they child has no need for the parent, they can find some excuse to call abuse "you birthed me, how dare you" and get rid of

I agree. On the note of shortcuts, I see one in how we label any obligation outside of debt as “abuse”. That it’s inherently evil for someone else to expect something in return after doing something for them. A lot of people on the internet

I sympathize with a lot of their writing but their response to “ What are your credentials?” is awfully defensive. I think a simple “I’ve read some books and I’ve made my own observations” would have sufficed.

It appears like a good explanation. But other commenters have pointed out how it lacks precision. Name dropping CSS modules, React query and other technologies is marketing, not research. By comparison, this article properly analyzes an act

No offense, but if 100k CAD is your idea of the average, you might be tremendously underpaid. No one on my Canada team makes less than 100k CAD. They're all junior, some fresh from college, and the company isn’t even FAANG
