My comment was more in general, that people who are aware of both, and read carefully, will spot the distinction by capitalizing it unambigiously. They (and I) may need to do a double-take if they process it wrong, and you reduce that risk

If you write it "LORA" then people won't know if you mean "LoRA" or "LoRa". Microsoft already created this huge confusion, so I'd recommend you help not make it worse by using the relevant capitalizat

How small a server setup do you mean? This was apparently 20k machines: https://blog.cloudflare.com/zero-day-rapid-reset-http2-recor... Most web services don't need clever protocol attacks to be downed by 20k machines.

In addition to the other reply you got from someone else: I'm not saying they'll necessarily be great people. But people do change. Especially the understanding of consequences is not fully developed in your early 20s. So even if

I agree that we have no need for vengance against the criminal. But the fact that SBF would do it again is not a case for vengance/punishment, but for deterrence. And, frankly, it's harder to launch your next scam while you'r

But then it's not punishment for punishment's sake, but for deterrence's sake. I read the comment as talking about retribution, to make the victim feel good, not about deterrence. Are you saying you have data to show that 20

Punishment, deterrence for others, and deterrence for the individual themselves, are three important parts of why the state has consequences for bad deeds. The US is pretty punishment-heavy. As a non-US person it even looks sadistic. It

Yeah, the problem with that kind of thing is that GC languages disincentivizes thinking about ownerships, and tacking ownership on after the fact is basically a rewrite.

While I don't have much experience with C#, and I agree that Java is the worst, this at least applies to Go as well. Though to a lesser degree.

It makes some things easier, and some things harder, or more complex. So I can deny that most development becomes easier with GC. At least if you also intend to actually run the thing. Running Java means forever fighting the GC, needing to

Same reason you can write a proof of concept in a weekend, but the production version can take years. The web's best example is twitter. Anyone can write a twitter clone in a weekend. A reasonably competent programmer can create a mult
