   Aren't judges elected ? If they are, having their hit track record fully publicly available would help. Not in detail of course, but aggregated by crime type for example. It will be prone to abuse. But any system/solution will be.

   yet, microservices are all the rage now. It makes sense when the monolith is very complex to certify, so having discrete parts that are individually certified is more expensive only in theory when you dont factor in the exponential certific

   So that. Also 1 level parking lots tend to be black, and therefore tend to accumulate heat much more than the field it is replacing. So transforming some energy it gets into electricity even sounds like a nice side effect.

   tell everyone you aim for iso certification. Then bring some auditors in to assess. And given the lack of doc, bring some consultants to 'offload' the documenting work. Usually toxic employees do not like to write documentation. B

   I just don't managed to like colorForth. Forth is great, but colorForth takes it one step to far. It is very difficult to know when to not add a seemingly cool feature. Specially when you where right against most odds before.

   It looks a perfect match. At first. Then you realize that you are not alone. Very much like using the Java stream parallel API in a webserver is doing wonders in dev, but not in production, as you have many other threads serving other reque

   Mass surveillance to combat terrorism is also making me think if the remedy is not as worse as the evil. I mean, terrorist are now laughing that they nicely annoyed 99.99% of the population that want to travel by air. We saw the rise of low

    Proper encoding of your data is key indeed. I mean, user data should be treated as binary anyway. And then hashing it to whatever makes sense for performance. But still binary comparing for accuracy.

    Also it how scam works. Every time the probability is non null. Small, but not zero. Law of big numbers always help scammers. And mediocre sales.

    Yet, I am mentoring some young devs. And i see a pattern as I advise them to learn C. Some do have "eureka" moments and begin to understand many things about their current higher level language of choice. Others don't and str

    That. YAGNI >> DRY. The DRY should be obvious when to refactor, not because of some compulsive behavior. And then once you need more than 2 branches, please break the DRY that tend to stay forever.

    Gcc actually totally does that. Even doing it while not static by copy/pasting the function and enabling further optims. to me modern compilers are like voodoo magic

    I just gave up and use tcc. Forces me to use a better algorithm when it matters. Which more often than not, does not. ;-)

    To be fair, 50 years ago security wasn't as proeminent as today. (Telnet anyone?) Even the way to write C is not the same as 10 years ago. But habits are hard to change. Forcing a change by changing the language is effective. Also, hav
