I am not offended due to being compared to a burning house. I am offended because I understand the comic, and it is patronizing garbage. Men suggesting that as a woman my life requires saving via sexism is what is insulting. I'm the

I am not a burning building. That is exactly the sort of patronizing garbage that creates problems.

There was no running anything involved. The position in question was "contributing editor". That is an inflated title that means "part time blogger".

Because it is written in C. "Goto statements are bad" meant: lets start using languages that offer higher level constructs to replace the current usage of goto. Things like "loops" and "functions" and "e

>So you are comparing a 5 year old compiler with 30 years of compiler optimizations?! No. You can clearly see that I am not doing that simply from reading my post. So, why the strawman?

Craigslist at least didn't make huge efforts to lower the quality of their site over the years. Ebay went from useful to garbage almost entirely by choice.

It is partly a compiler issue, but the semantics of a language limits how fast of a compiler you can make. It doesn't really matter though, the fastest g compiler still produces slower binaries than any C compiler I can find.

Go is older, so it has had more time to gain users. And go has gained users mainly from python and ruby, not from other compiled languages. People are genuinely happy to have anything which sucks less than scripting languages but still

> It is still better than just plain C. But without the speed of C. D and Rust are both better than C and better than go, while still being as fast as C (ok rust isn't always as fast as C yet, but it is still faster than go).

Morality isn't universal by definition. That's the point. Since I said what I believe, and only applied it to me , that is not making a universal claim. The person I replied to was saying what he believes and how it applie

You can't be bothered to even look at the "wordpress blog" to see what it is, but I am the one trolling? If you have something to say, then say it. Posting just to see your name isn't productive.

Yes there is, you just pointed it out. There 16-17 ms of extra lag compared to a typical monitor. When I stop moving my mouse, I have to wait up to 33 before I can see where it actually is. That is easily noticeable. Stick a bunch of pe

Basic desktop usage is unbearable at 30fps. Just dragging windows around you have to insert a deliberate pause to make sure the pointer is really where you want it to be because the screen is updating so slowly. Flicker is not the problem

I don't understand your response. There were two studies that showed the same data. There have been no other studies. A website made up some numbers that don't fit that data. It is not based on any study or evidence at all. A
