Not sure. It seems a fairly basic syntax change and it could even be easily made backwards compatible. Now we need to get the ANSI SQL committee to standardize it ANSI SQL 2027 or some such.

SQL shows it's age by having exactly the same problem. Queries should start by the `FROM` clause, that way which entities are involved can be quickly resolved and a smart editor can aid you in writing a sensible query faster. The order

I like the Renault V10 better, although the Ferrari V12 is a close second. I think even Hamilton agrees! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_I0R5yZ80rA

“I think a repetition of 1929 is most unlikely. But obviously economic and human affairs go in cycles. It could well be that some time there will be a collapse. I’ve always thought that if we did have one, it would be the dollar , not the

So it is subjective then? I mean wether peanut butter and jelly are good or bad together is an entirely subjective matter. Yeah, I get that for US readers that's supposed to mean "it goes well together" but it's stretchi

It depends on the aesthetics of the language I think. What are core concepts that you must know? (there should be few). Striking the right balance is hard. Code is read a lot more than is written in my experience, so saving time writing it

...but traditional static type systems require large amounts of manual annotation by programmers, making them difficult to work with... I like to have type annotations, yeah, they can look ugly, but I much rather know what something

It's a great exercise as a programmer to implement a language, Forths and Lisps are popular choices. It greatly helps conceptualizing computation and what's truly essential at it's core.

There's so many graduates that are not worth the paper their degree is printed on that it's laughable (if it weren't sad). That's a good part of the reason why hiring processes are so long and you need to re-check everyt

It's fairly common in Argentina in cattle (also in Brazil). Time for a gruesome anecdote! My dad is a retired ophthalmologist (eye doctor), he used to do residences in a public hospital specialized on eyes for the Greater Buenos Aires

The issue is the same as always, once something goes massive, the statistics of human nature start to dominate. The abundant dissemination of information tends to average society. Note that local cultural differences have been slowly being

Technically it's not a VM, it's a subsystem, the same way Win32, Win64, Posix, OS/2, etc. are. It's a feature of the NT-family of kernels where you can create many environments sharing the same underlying executive and H

I kind of agree. There's another world, where software lasts a really long time, it's a much better world, but just a few of us get to live in it. Building tools for other engineers is where it's at, the library maintainers f

Building the set of used files or objects (which is what mark does in a mark/sweep). Sometimes it's too expensive to mark in place, even if it's a bit that you need to write to disk and keeping a set of references may be proh

Another possible mechanism for doing GC at scale (a variation on Asynchronous Reconciliation in the article) in some file/object store, is doing a probabilistic mark and sweep using bloom filters. The mark phase can be done in parallel

The disk drive uses a serial protocol and it actually has 8k of RAM and a 6502 CPU. There's no drive controller in the C64, you send serial commands to the drive and it answers. Due to a hardware bug on the CIA on the 64, the protocol

The premise feel weird to me, I read the graphs much more as evidence of how scared the devs are to make changes rather than how "stable" the libraries are. You add the code, and rather than change it if needed, you just leave it

I always wondered if the specific dimensionality of the layers and tensors has a specific effect on the model. It's hard to explain, but higher dimensional spaces have weird topological properties, not all behave the same way and some

This is anecdotical, so take it with a pinch of salt, but I had a really bad experience with Backblaze, they lost ~80% of my files with no recourse for recovery. They trust their pods too much and they fail in ways they cannot detect until
