By that definition nearly every language is OOP, which makes the term useless.

by zamalek 2y ago
Author is correct that Rust is not OOP. It simply has optional dispatch (which does not an OOP language make). I'm sure many of my fellow rustaceans will agree that the lack of OOP is one of the most competitive features of Rust.

I had the Kona EV for a while. The back seats are for ants (I was otherwise reasonably happy with it). We are currently running my wife's ICE into the ground, then a Kia is certainly on the short-list.

Good. Toyota needs to get off their haunches and release something actually competitive. From what I've read the bZ4X is mostly about giving people a bad first experience with EUVs, which is unfortunate because an EUV RAV4 would have b

There is an unpraised advantage of keeping code, uh wet?, for as long as possible. When you do decide that a refactor is required, you have real use cases to test your abstraction against. While I am broadly in agreement with the article be

ANNs can't represent everything involved with a functioning brain, never mind a highly specific ANN architecture. Any consciousness or similar would need to arise via an independent mechanism.

Per my other comment: Earth isn't attached to the sun, the sun isn't attached to the galactic center (they are orbiting). They are independent rotational frames of reference. They are also gyroscopes in their own right. As far as

We are not kinetically bound to the galactic center, there is no friction causing earth to remain "upright" in respect to the galaxy. Earth is also a freely rotating inertial body and, even though wobbly, it is itself a gyroscope.
