I find that the AI is better at prioritization and triage than the human support. But then, for some reason, whenever support fails to read their tickets, they just dump the ticket on to my queue. So I could just be being salty, or seeing f

What would rust achieve aside from just enabling another, entirely distinct from the existing workflow, language? Haven’t android apps been compiled to native code since like 2012? (I actually don’t know, I left android a while ago and stop

Ha. So lie and then when called on the lie, presume the person who called out the lie is “missing the point”. Goalposts, rocket mode, launch!

The same way that epipen got so expensive: Executives wanted a larger bonus while lacking the ability to otherwise meet unreasonable “infinite growth” demands of the market.

Yeah. YouTube’s algorithm strongly pushes that you recently watched, along with a sprinkle of rage bait. If the dude is getting videos of people dancing, they watched videos of people dancing. For generally innocuous stuff, it tries to get

He’s very interested in having it in the conversation. He didn’t fund this startup to lose money. Loosely breathing AGI gets you funds even if your best case is loosely competing with OpenAI.

I don’t believe I implied that there was one? Dynamic dispatch is slow for usually no reason. RAII encourages patterns that are slow.

I haven’t the foggiest clue what problem Haskell is solving, because as far as I can tell, it doesn’t solve any problem particularly well. Hence “solving the problem before even asking what their problem actually is”.

Any language that reifies types at compile time should have reasonably similar performance characteristics given similar code. Zig, though, should still end up being easier to make faster simply because it’s not RAII heavy, and doesn’t push

Sorry, but you are just assuming that the borrow checker is an authority of safety, when, even stated by rust lang developers, it is not. The borrow checker is known to be far in to “overly cautious” territory.

Please stop using “average” for wage comparisons. It’s an utterly useless metric for showing if wages are moving or not. If you must use average, then you should remove the top 5% from the average.
