Obligatory ‘C is not a low-level language’ blog post. Standard C doesn’t specify any specifically low-level detail, no cache, no vector instructions, nothing.

So how is it any different than just adding bound checkings for normal C code?

JVM supports more languages than ever.

I think in your case it is actually javafx that makes packaging harder than necessary. Not affiliated, but hydraulic conveyor is quite good at packaging stuff like this to a single exe.

With hamas in the picture, both Palestine and Israeli civilians will suffer indefinitely with no peace ever. With a hopefully short war that manages to cut out the cancer that is hamas, healing can begin for both nations.

The null “option” is forever letting Israeli civilians living in constant fear of rocket attacks. That’s no way of living.

They have low-overhead temporal-, spatial-, and thread- safety guarantees. Spatial in that every “C pointer”=MemorySegment is associated with bounds, which is checked at runtime. Temporal, in that such a MemorySegment has a scope (usually

I think Java is just so insanely big, that this Java-pureness will stick, and JNI/Panama will only be used, when absolutely necessary. This is a unique trait thanks to the way the language grew.

There is no evidence to the atrocities? Come on, you are absolutely not engaging in good faith if you say that. There are whole telegram channels with numerous not-safe-for-life videos posted by hamas itself of their own inhumane vile acts.

I’m sure that Palestinean that just wants to live and eat is very fkin happy about the hamas moron with a gun that tells them to go back to the place that will be bombed.. And yeah, hamas is popular with Palestineans, they are very very rad

> there is IMO absolutely no amount of reasoning that can justify it Unfortunately, I don’t see any other way. But I would be very happy to know of any that will eradicate hamas, and let both sides’ civilians finally live in peace.

I’m fairly sure there are much more video evidence of hamas evils posted by themselves. E.g. the beheading of migrant workers with shovels.

You are the one literally questioning the mass rapings.

You mean the ceasefire stopped (again) by hamas? Oh and sorry, it wasn’t 40 beheaded baby, it was just killed babies and separate instance of beheadings, with goddamn shovels. Much better. Also, to question the mass rapes is just vile and u

A 16 years old with a gun is a kid, according to hamas.

And their bombs have a kill rate of less than 1, a testament to them being as specific as possible.

Every civilian life’s loss is tragic, but this is a normal ratio in comparable wars, especially given the very densely populated urban setting.

You can target civilian infrastructure in a war if the military advantage you gain from it is higher than the expected civilian costs. It’s so specifically so that militaries can’t just use hospitals as free safe space, and truly humanita

The past is the past. There are multiple generations of Israeli people that born on that land. Does a Palestinean child whose grand grandfather born there has any more rights to the land than those actually born there? Israel is there, for

It’s war. Isn’t it a the case in any such conflict that your people worth more? Also, the point you and many others fail to understand is that there is no other way for Israel, this is a least bad option. No one is happy about the situation

by kaba0 3y ago
Because Israel cares about their civilians and defends them at huge costs (Iron Dome), while hamas is happier the more civilian death happens on their side, as it’s free propaganda/media outrage for them - see human shield, starting ro

If they “only” managed to kill this amount of people with that amount of (much more modern) explosives, isn’t that proof in itself that they don’t want to deal maximal casualties? Or otherwise they are very bad at it. With that said, any

Well, what other way is there? Hamas is a terrorist organization, with in the picture, there will never be peace. The only option thus is the most targeted elimination of all terrorists. Unfortunately, 100% specificity is impossible to achi

Well, the Japanese military was so evil, that the nazis literally had to tell them to chill out. Every civilian death is a tragedy, but as with most wars, the longer it goes on, the more casualties it will take. Sometimes people simply have

A shelve is a dumb primitive static object though. Even a simple hello world goes over a huge amount of lines of code before it is displayed on a screen, ANY one of which being faulty could result in a bug visible to the enduser. And most

Because complexity is boundless and in software it has no cost. Building a house will have a restrictive initial budget for complexity, you don’t have enough in that budget for rotating floors, or an elevator that is catapulted to the corre
