You can’t formally verify behavior with subtle and specific hardware failures. Or in general interaction with reality. You can formally verify only internal logic.

That's not specific to technology. Applies also to dialog and action. I don't mind this, but I'm getting tired of the transparent screens and random graphics.

You're entirely right. Another problem with REST is that Fielding himself describes it as a "large grain resource approach". It's no surprise we love HTTP and URLs when we have to return, say, images, downloads or entire

To be fair, you need at least one hard-coded URL in your client, don't you? To hit the root entrypoint. And if you have one hard-coded URL... and use it as the root of other URLs, then it's no hard to support than anything. URLs a

I didn't say the OS filters the pipeline. Modern CPUs have a lot of updateable microcode, including how it handles its command pipeline.

You gotta access those bits though some instructions though. What if the command pipeline filters those instructions.

Lots of animals have been verified to understand and use abstract count which is what numbers are at their basics. Plants are much less adaptive than animals by definition. The problem isn’t whether they know numbers but how do you even tes

There's a chicken egg problem, but let's not blame Apple for this trend. Apple's original move to China in the 90s was ALSO prompted by the need to scale. This wouldn't make sense if we interpret things the way you do.

The irony is that for modern processors, generated assembly tends to be faster, because the required optimization is so specific, manually crafting it can almost never match an optimizing compiler. But I get the spirit of what you said.

We're past that, our cultural evolution is orders of magnitude faster, and we're otherwise evolving as a single species. That species will change slowly, but I doubt we'd "lose to ourselves". We'd need some cul

When we train neural networks, we don't tell them what to think and how to think about it. We mostly focus on overall structure, layers and we want useful outcomes. And yet we see lots of patterns that repeat ways in which we think. I

It won't recover, our species won. It'll be just us, and whatever we eat and keep as pets. So prepare for a world of cats, dogs, cows, chickens and pigs. I don't like it but that's the natural course we're taking.

How about we throw Clean Architecture in this while we're at it. And also realize that the only rule in SOLID that isn't defined subjectively or partially is the "L".
