I wonder what Stroustrup thinks about the Meta Object Compiler. In a way Qt is its own dialect of C++.

If there were typing, there would be no reason to not use newtypes[0] for radix and index. These values should only be explicitly unwrapped to plain numbers. It would look like this newtype Radix = Radix { radixToWord :: Word } ne

It's an interesting observation, and it's constructive, providing actual data and knowledge. I downvoted you for negativity because you're providing nothing interesting.

GNOME uses a lot of JavaScript nowadays, so large parts of an application can be interpreted. Here are the GJS docs, it gives you an idea of how much JavaScript there is: https://gjs-docs.gnome.org/

Java and C# also support AOT now, and the linker should only link code that is actually used.

Typing fixes this, and anonymous records make it even better. JavaScript lacks typing, and then they decided on a weird signature for the callback...

If you look at how people actually write PureScript, which is much like Haskell, but with anonymous records, you can see that they're not actually used 99% of the time.

They could do that, but you'd be able to see that nobody/few outside their cluster signed any of their keys. Let's say they have fake passports and physically appear at key signing parties. Now you're screwed because eve

What are your definitions of 'system' and 'any part'? Any big company has been breached at some point. They don't throw away all their hardware everytime, even though it was connected. You have to draw the line some

Trusting people in general is inadvisable. I haven't trusted anyone for years and I am richer than ever.

How do you know what 'pre' means given that pseudo-anonymous identities are free and Tan is already suspected of having some (e.g. Hans Jansen and Jigar Kumar: https://research.swtch.com/xz-timeline )

What about just using 'web of trust', for example with GPG? If the user's key is signed by people that met up with the actual person, it would be much harder to make fake identities.

Can't have a negative record. Let's say we measure based on fatalities per km flown/passenger. Now, the Superjet has had some fatal accidents so I'd bet it'd score worse than any prod Boeing. If the Comac had a sing

No, McDonnell Douglas made much better planes. The Mad Dog nickname came not only from its MD initials but also because it took off like a rocket and makes a hell of a lot of noise. Unlike later automated planes, the Mad Dog also needs full

'A' has a lot of subsequent zeros: >>> bin(ord('A')) '0b1000001' It's sending stars or NAK (negative ack.): >>> chr(0b101010) '*' >>> chr(0b010101) '\x15'

Thunk is a general concept of a small function which is used only to adapt the call or prepare/modify it in some way and then redirect to the proper function. Things like promises, futures, closures, wrappers, stubs or implementations

Guix/Nix can use dynamic linking without risk since they know the exact dependency closure. It's not fair to compare a statically linked executable to a dynamic one.

The mandatory liability insurance covers any damage done using the vehicle, independently of who is driving it.[0] If there is no insurance for the car, I would assume that normal laws regarding liability apply. There is also punishment for
