I would argue that if there isn't one thermostat per section or even per room, that the building is poorly designed.

I was just simplifying. I get that Basic is supposed to bring people together. I think the blood brothers things is a bit extreme for most but totally accurate for those unlucky few seeing combat directly. The majority of our armed forced s

Google could charge paywalled sites to make such a feature, but as a user I never want to see that.

Whatever they are, there will be some other materials that will let get lower.... Until we are building on a single atom, and even then maybe we can go smaller.

We have been struggling to use public transport as a country for at least 5 decades. It works in some areas and doesn't work in others. Seeing some of the failures I don't ever see public transit becoming the only (or at least maj

That's not really a conspiracy theory, other than the current lack of evidence. That is just business as usual in most areas of business. It is just rare on the Internet, for reasons I don't completely understand.

I am curious why people are downvoting me. It seems obvious to me to that proving software is correct is hard or impossible. It building and passing the tests help to increase confidence in correctness, but doesn't prove it. No one dis

It it a solution for posting HATETRIS scores, I think it is still a joke. Just a joke with a valid technical solution, and an above average level of dedication.

Yeah, I read your post once, then I kept trimming and rewording my post, and was left with that heap. I shouldn't have made either of these posts.

Even then you don't know if program is correct. There have been pieces of software running in production for 20 or 30 only to fail because of some unforeseen and planned for error condition. My favorite was the Comair christmas failure

But with Rust once you learn to work with the borrow checker you can work at any level of abstraction. With go you get what the Go implementors decided was best for you. (I omit Haskell because I don't know it) I want to mix C++11&#x2F

You are lumping me in with some strawman who insulted you, then you insult me calling me "impervious to reason". You are not interested in a real exchange of ideas. I will respond to your points in the spirit of open exchange anyw

It becomes less confusing when realizing each line is a multiple of the fastest run time. If the fastest one took 100s, then the one taking x1.57 took 157s.

Because: I don't want to maintain a giant heap of buggy C Code. I don't want to deal with bugs in the JVM/JNI. I want ownership semantics expressed in code. When a C functions accepts or return a pointer who deletes it? I wan

In some obscure technical sense you might be correct, that identifying some piece of code is hard, but that little of C++ obscurantism is rarely why code isn't easy to read. With C++ it easier to express higher level concepts. I can ha

Your link doesn't work for me. Can you perhaps just explain the difference? A twitter link is hardly a canonical source.

Be careful comparing complexity. C might look simple, and C++ might look complex but I have never seen a char * in C++ to mean 2d of jpg images in memory. C++ is more complex, because it covers more concepts. But when you get simple safe a

There is a performance upper bound. You can only run instructions as fast as the machine can. Native code can get very close to this limit, in a way that in practice no interpreted or JITed code can. This is just emulating the techniques na

If you are using ms as a unit you several orders of magnitudes too slow for many domains. 3d gaming comes to mind, most games have a tight budget of 16ms per frame, and at those speeds 0.1 ms is a real chunk of that. If I am going to downlo

Except that the download size for an application of the same complexity in JS and Wasm looks like it will be smaller in Wasm. There are plenty of demo games made in Wasm that play great already. Doing the same thing as those demos requires

Could also be because its not a good game. It could be so much more and dominating the charts instead of hanging in them. I agree it is a huge success, but it could have been much more.
