Blame Nvidia for that one. They have actively refused to work with the community for the longest time.

I'm not sure about the CLR, but the JVM has no type safety whatsoever. Java the language does, but all of that goes away once you are in the JVM bytecode.

I agree 100%. I firmly hold the belief that the two paradigms are just different perspectives of looking at the same thing (state and behavior). Also see https://insearchofsecrets.com/2014/08/04/lisp-smalltalk

You're wrong. The prototypical model of JS was inspired by the Self programming language[0], itself a descendant of Smalltalk. It is a very crude implementation for sure, but it is object programming nevertheless. Closures being presen

I simply have to recommend Glamorous Toolkit to anyone interested in visual programming: https://gtoolkit.com It focuses on the kind of visual programming the article argues for: Class layout, code architecture, semantics. It&#x

Could you please share an itinerary for this? I’d also like to hold a similar course but don’t know where to start.

I am personally at the “nice tooling” level, but am currently building towards supporting other teams at the “business critical” level, so I try to apply the same rigour to everything that I do. It might make sense to also consider your dep

I think you got the wrong idea from that sentence; the author is talking more about the feedback you get from your end-users and/or customers, rather than development feedback a la debug info.

"Original research"/primary sources should not matter for facts, i.e. those laid out as actual code. (It didn't land well.)

Absolutely not, and there are two reasons: 1) Someone paying for my product means that they now expect support and maintenance for me. When I release my software under a Free license, I release it "AS IS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,

Sad to hear. Hacking on SerenityOS together with Andreas was some of the most fun I've ever had. Wishing him the best of luck with Ladybird, and hoping he will come back once in a while (become the TYVC? :).

I think you mean declarative. Whether something is FP or OP usually doesn't matter too much (unless you go to the extremes of each end of the sprectrum a la AbstractBeanFactory/IO Functor State). Declarative solutions last longe

Does this include single-line suggestions from Copilot, I wonder? Those are pretty nice because it just finishes what I already intended to type.

Feels like that would be noticed rather quickly given that you would be able to access someone else's funds on the network automatically, whereas in the SSH vulnerability case you have to proactively check if servers you want to access

Ouch! That's a fail on the same level of Microsoft forgetting the XBox decryption keys on the secret ROM.

Who's "we"? React is still by far the most popular framework. I personally like Solid better but I'm just one person vs. many who actively write React code.

Not sure why you're downvoted, it's a valid question (the downvote isn't an "I disagree" button). I believe the answer the Puter author came up with is that the VDOM takes away too much of the control from the autho

Have you looked at how it's implemented? The image decoder is completely separate from the main browser and is in a sandboxed process (with restricted syscall and filesystem access). If the image decoder is exploited, there's noth

This is my single greatest complaint about Python's type system. Protocol should have always been the primary building block rather than just being relegated to something you use for "duck typing". Subtyping fits much better

They have very ambitious goals, I think it's okay to give them the benefit of the doubt for a bit. Keep in mind that Rust took over 9 years to reach 1.0, and C took about 19 years to be standardized.

Small clarification: the Smalltalk technology absorbed by HotSpot was StrongTalk's static type-based optimization techniques combined with dynamic recompilation (what we now moniker as a JIT) originating from research done with Self (w

The fix is kind of weird, no? If the lazy initialization of the widgets fail, won't it stay stuck as failed forever (i.e. until the containing class is destroyed)? Is this intended behavior?

This existed in the 90s! The Self programming language[0] took Smalltalk's existing visual approach and extended it to be a full visual environment with interactive animations and physical metaphors, giving you a literal "desktop&
