I've been seeing this too all over the place. Why do we have to continue break out in this tribal behavior with our identities tied to what language we use. It matters less what language you use than what kind of algorithms and data st

I'm writing educational games for the PI, so it makes sense for me to get a device with the same hardware to work on. Also I can test builds without taking over one of my kid's devices

As someone who uses the language. I think it's one of its most overlooked features. By convention comments are ignored, but the truth is they're not by the programmer. Comments are extremely important to keep track of what you&#x2

I was thinking that as I was reading. Its 1 extra new line, and arguably more readable.

Generation is a rather big solution for sometimes small problems. For many things like utility functions I think generics are much more readable and easier to understand while go generate would be heavy handed.

I really like go. Its simple in that you can learn the language pretty quick. I might get burned in another comment below but it's the language that feels the closest to C to me. Both are really simple languages that can get relatively

Am I alone in that I really don't like using flatpaks or snaps over debs. All the software I've installed from both tends to be buggy and unoptimized. Inkscape from flatpak crashes, Kate can't access system themes, steam bare

I have a use for this for sure. I got two 400 models for my 3 and 4 yo and installed all the Linux educational software. Recently I started working on my own educational games for them in C and having something like this I can carry around

I've been writing a lot of go lately and it's making me a better programmer. Not just interfaces but methods too

I think that's one of the draws so the language honestly. Familiar, structured, and easy to pick up if you already know a c syntax language.

If you read the letter amazon sent they were very clear this wasn't about politics. There were posts advocating killing in the form of execution, beheadings, and burnings. Hard to imagine any company wants to be associated with that ki

This isn't the same thing as a convenience store where they're refusing to sell to someone. This is more like a network refusing to display an ad for someone. In that Trump is displaying his own content on their platform. This doe

For many people it's not the bodydying that's scary it's the end of consciousness while a copy of your consciousness lives on. But I believe it's possible to make the transition seamless without a break from conscious th

This is surprisingly cool. I bet a significant market would be into this. And with the current situation in the world supporting local businesses is all the rage. I just wish they had a phone app with ebooks.

You have way more trust in people than I do. I don't think people would do anything if it meant just 0.1 more seconds of inconvenience.

As a normal person learning and using C++ I'm sorry but I agree with him. If I weren't trying to get a job in the game industry I wouldn't touch it. I'm not a student either, I've been programming in multiple langua

Arguably that's one of the things that made it easy to pick up. I remember tons of JavaScript programmers who were suddenly systems programmers when it came out.

I think the concept of having conditionals at the end of functions is more interesting than people here are giving credit. It could go a long way to getting rid of incomprehensible nested if statements. But all the aliases need to go. What&

You're points are extremely valid. They're not just competing as a platform. They're competing with the standards we work by. If seen a few platforms similar to this, and I think they try to change too much too fast.

Been full DDG almost as long and now I can't go back. It gives me much better results than google does.

Because of expansion we'll likely never be able to travel to any of the galaxies in the universe except our local neighborhood. But it's still worth studying those galaxies from a distance to learn more about our universe.

Legible text that you can read without squinting and tracked keyboards will be the floodgate moment I think. I'd really like to see how an IDE can evolve in VR space, especially with collaborate features. It could probably make online

Just like it's hard to explain how it feels in VR is hard to explain the difference here. I think the big take away is that it lets you simulate tasks physically instead of just watching them being done. Like the difference between wat

I think before they get big we needed a resolution update. Reading text is still difficult in VR and I can't see collaborative VR spaces getting big until texts start becoming more legible. Also I think we needed trackable office furni

I think the point here is the availability of unlimited screen space. Everywhere you look can be a monitor. Combined with the potential increase in productivity, and the use of VR offices for remote work, I can see a business market develop

Even if there's no license, there no way someone can just walk into a bar and get a bartending job. I should know, I went to bartending school. Bartenders are almost always hired from lower level employees. Usually you start by cleanin

For a company that aims to do ethical businesses, they have an uphill better. But it helps that they have such a great search engine. I've been using ddc for a few years exclusively and I think I get better results. Some of my old goog

Not to say he isn't smart or even extremely smart. But I also noticed the insecurity. He desperately needs people to love him and searches for validation with his fans. But that's not a stable way to live.

Hard to say I didn't see this coming. Elon has been lucky he's had the world's media on his side for a lot of his career. But he's been too loose with his words for a long time. Getting into arguments and making risky jo
