Unfortunately in Britain at least politicians are absolutely dead set on taking the piss / abusing this by e.g. adding huge amounts of subsidy and stealth taxes into what should be price discovery mechanisms (or for example when was th

You have to think about these things as a portfolio rather than just by minimum price. If you have a steel mill for example you need to be able to basically guarantee a certain level of energy production to run it viably because the risk of

This is more of a question of Affordances than type systems as per se e.g. you can do this quite happily in C# or something it's just that the amount of visual clutter is more than the actual type definition.

So I heard someone recently in person say "Oh you can just have the AI do things that don't really matter like database transaction" It's so sad that given these amazing tools the average programmers attitude is to aut

I don't know if that's true. Linux users are curious and will try more stuff but people mistake that they file bug reports (and usually detailed ones...) with complaining more. Apple's MO is that it's their baby. End of.

I haven't been paying attention to it but wasn't there some kerfuffle over some people threatening to leak it over not being allowed to publish controversial findings?

Git is basically fine even though the verbs are backwards - e.g. you shouldn't need to name branches, commits should be far more automatic, but the basic mechanisms are fine. Git Hub is an abomination.

I think the core conceptual difference between a stacked diff and PRs as we use them in open source is the following: A PR is basically a cyberspatial concept saying "I, as a dog on the internet, am asking you to accept my patches&quot

1. Finally. Pull requests are consanguine and bizarre. 2. I'm not a huge fan of having to use a secondary tool that isn't formally a layer around git / like jj as opposed to git hub

Phabricator is open source and has been for years. It has had a bumpy ride over the last few years though. Although I guess having written that I assume the internal meta one is much better

I won't name names just in case I'm misremembering but I'm pretty sure a remote desktop program you've heard at one point was adding a global LD_PRELOAD and pointing it at a shared library that anyone could write to. But

ok so if you abstract both so aggressively as to lose all descriptive (and especially predictive) power then...

In turn I'm sick of myopic fools using foreign stupidity to cover up the undeniable truth that there is a huge problem with petty crime and anti-social behaviour in london e.g. the boss of M&S wrote a letter on this just recently
