Most of the differences I noticed revolved around automatically changing indentation levels(one of the best ways to get uninstalled) and autocompletion which sometimes didn't work(file name completion) and once it refused to autocomplete a certain string without removing the underscores first.

I'm sure a lot of this can be fixed by changing some configuration options, but I don't see a reason to change the editor just for the sake of it. Emacs is awesome in some ways, but it's not my cup of tea.
This article makes the problem of doctor/test scheduling sound way easier than it actually is. Optimally scheduling these tests when you have a few doctors and a few patients isn't that difficult, but it gets very tricky as you increase the numbers of both as well as the number of constraints on both patients and doctors.

This is incorrect. The type system of both languages makes sure that T does not include null, so the case where you "accidentally" handle the null of T is impossible.

More generally, with unions you always have this behavior but I've never seen this be a problem. If your function accepts T | U and you pass (T | U) | U it simplifies to T | U and in my experience the code that handles U is always the correct thing to do for U.

It should be something like - the economic value that everybody derives from using it exceeds the value the company derives from their use of it.

Yeah, this is actually quite funny. You can also watch it on iTunes. Are Amazon and Apple exceptions with respect to selling your information? (I'm genuinely asking)
Monitoring over the network exists, and should be the preferred way to detect failure.

I can easily imagine software bugs that make the machine continue beeping even if the normal function doesn't work anymore.

Somehow, this sounds like an excuse for lazy design.
Great work and accomplishment, but even better that you are giving Forth some much needed advertising boost: small, light and fast, it's ideal for embedded devices, which is why it has been used for running space ships and powering the OpenBoot PROM in Sun, IBM and Apple systems.

Continuous Improvement vs. Big Launch Mentality: Which Is Better?
Every business would prefer to have customers swipe parking provided by every other business. That way, the other businesses pay the cost of land for parking. It's a freeloader problem. Parking minimums exist to fix this.

You don't need parking minimums in the middle of nowhere, with businesses too far apart for swiping each other's parking spaces.

Customers really do go elsewhere if there are no spaces, but a business can't affordably provide the spaces if they will mostly be swiped by customers of other businesses.

I’m a person who acknowledges everything is deterministic and free will is a facade.
The two types of people I’ve encountered who desire the notion of free will:
1) Person with ego who needs to have a belief in free will.
2) Persons who has ego, gets annoyed by free will being a facade and refuses to think about it because “it doesn’t matter” to this person.

I’m perplexed if the problem is singular between the two types of persons and if it’s either: ego, desire, greed, selfishness, or these people really need a belief similar to persons of religious ideology to continue functioning as who they are subconsciously.
To me it’s fascinating to observe because I genuinely propose the world would be better when the majority lives by reason in reality; when it comes to law, health, the environment, finances, and social problems. The psychological impact would be the most exciting thing for me personally to witness as I cannot imagine any negatives of a majority understanding determinism compared to the madnesses today in society; where the majority “who blame everyone” or compare themselves to others unfortunate as the outcome wasn’t determined before birth.

1. Your CS professor does not sound very good at his job judging purely from the very tiny amount of information you have shared. I am sorry you have to deal with that.

2. I, at no point, stated or even implied that Word needs to die. I am largely indifferent towards Word. It is a piece of infrastructure that other people rely on, and as such, it will continue to have a place on the market. My point is that it was Infrastructure at all, not to criticize others for using it, or Microsoft for continuing to develop it, or the Office team for their work on it. This is true for many projects, and overall there seems to be a type of software which becomes infrastructure and will never be replaced even when software critics believe it should be replaced.
Why not just consider that there's a mix of determinism and randomness? I mean, if the question is "What's 1+9 in base 10?", the decision/answer is always "10".

But if it's "What do you want for lunch?", the decision depends on how I'm feeling, what I've been eating lately, etc, etc. And there's certainly some randomness there.

And then there are decisions where there's just too little information, or too much confusing information, and I'm left with making a SWAG. Maybe almost random. Even literally, with a coin or whatever.

But about the soul thing, I totally agree. There's the same problem, "turtles all the way down" (or up, as the case may be).

Also, there's the issue that our conscious awareness is clearly not making any decisions. Other stuff is handling that, and we mostly just observe, and tell ourselves that we're in charge. As Old Bill Burroughs put it in Naked Lunch:

> "Possession" they call it.... Sometimes an entity jumps in the body -- outlines waver in yellow orange jelly -- and hands move to disembowel the passing whore or strangle the nabor child in hope of alleviating a chronic housing shortage. As if I was usually there but subject to goof now and again.... Wrong! I am never here.... Never that is fully in possession, but somehow in a position to forestall ill-advised moves....

> Patrolling is, in fact, my principle occupation.... No matter how tight Security, I am always somewhere ...
I guess most drivers would be fine accepting all offered jobs within a fixed period. For most it's a full time job anyway, the only reason they would refuse jobs in between is because they're not paying well enough or because they got one with a competitor.

I spent a night in hospital this year - My first ever hospital visit in 52 years on this planet!

I do agree with the OP. The thing that mystified me was that I was told I had to rest while under observation (for a non _too_ serious condition), but my night there was anything but restful.

I get that the nurses had to come around every 4 hours to change my antibiotic and saline IV drip, and to give me painkillers - but outside of that the constant beeping and general noise and chatter of the medical staff was incessant. IV drip controllers were left in 'alarm' state for 15 minutes at a time so I could hear constant loud beeps that are purely intended to get attention.

To top it off, the night staff forgot to turn off the main lights in the ward, and it wasn't until 4am that I heard someone say "Oops, we forgot to turn off the lights!" and they did so, making the ward finally dark enough to sleep.

Generally, the care I received was great, but I was mystified at how hard it was to actually get some basic sleep, which I consider vital for recovery, under those conditions.
I don't really care much for bells and whistles around the command line, as long as the command line is good (which it is, because it's Unix - I just wish they'd stop making changes so it won't crash).
Yeah, I never really tried to get much out of my Mac OS "experience" because I just want the OS to allow me to find stuff and launch stuff. I found most UI (well, not UI itself but various UI features) outside of actual applications (e.g. the IDE) plain annoying, just like the same crap in Windows 10. Spotlight is on par with Windows 10 search. Finder is worse but more or less the same.

However, I do want my monitor to stop blinking from 2560 to 1920 for no reason, and my terminal from crashing, and to stop saying "hey I can't hear you, kill coreaudiod" in meetings. And actually come think of it, it would be nice to open files from non-open dialogs (I don't know why the context menu in dialogs cannot just be a normal context menu ), and also can I not have the thing where the files created on the date that is after the date the app was opened, show up in "No Date" section at the bottom of its open/save/etc dialogs, when grouped by date? That's really annoying when you want to attach a latest file.
So you are saying that the town (8000 people) should have required the bank to put in 200 "additional" underground parking spaces?

A town with a regulation like that won't spend much time planning future expansion.
This same thing happened in South Asia, as Islamic and Mongol/Turkic conquerors came, but eventually embraced the greater South Asian culture as it existed and adopted it/assimilated. It's pretty silly for China to claim that they are the only such civilization.

I wasn't talking about Tcl/Tk's current state, but about the similar situation it "enjoyed". It, too, had a pretty large community, which quickly went on too greener shores. User base is much more fickle than one might think.

Flutter could be even worse off, as mobile/web development is often corp development, i.e. not something people do because it's enjoyable. Even more people used MFC and Motif, but I don't see a lot of fansites dedicated to those.

There are so many aspects of modern UI that are not functional, and serve only to distinguish one platform from another in the wider market-place - so I feel that your statement that the OS-provided UI is a 'tool' is misguided. There is nothing tool-like about making me wait for a swipe scroll to complete - this is a game mechanic designed to entertain.

And in that sense, its quite possible to make a non-native UI that is more productive than the OS-provided UI - you merely have to take responsibility for the user experience, obviously.. So yes, its about the user. One reason for going non-native and rolling-your-own, is to ensure that your user has a positive experience, no matter what platform they are using - and this directly competes with the platform-vendors ability to woo new users with fancy, game-like, UI elements.

So I don't think this point is quite correct:

>Companies that choose to use their own UI frameworks or avoid the platform's guidelines are doing so to the detriment of their user experience.

Developers that choose to use their own UI framework win or lose on the basis of how responsible they are for making sure the user has a good time with their UI. This has nothing to do with whether the app is a game or a tool or whatever. Its a matter of competence.

Especially American banks. I can't think of any other retail banking market where banks abuse eventual consistency so bad that transfers take days to clear.
Accidentally all software you cite are born as commercial product: LibreOffice's origins are StartOffice, originally developed by StarWriter and after acquired by SUN; it became a FOSS project when SUN understand it can't profit anymore from it due to Microsoft Office popularity. Firefox was born as a commercial product (Netscape, originally an AOL product) that mimic Mosaic, but does not use it's free code. Blender was born as an internal product of NeoGeo, after distributed as a shareware by another company NaN and only after nan bankruptcy as a FOSS product. Eclipse born as a commercial IBM IDE, successors of VisualAge Micro Edition...

Of course, there are "recent" FOSS project with a design that take inspiration from commercial products, simply because that's the way authors think/know even if the code is free, but original FOSS software are another story.

Concurrency = logical simultaneity.
Parallelism = physical simultaneity.
When the former is mapped to the latter we encounter scalability. Some examples:
Unix commands (cp, grep, awk, sort) do not scale on multi-core systems due to total lack of concurrency in their implementation.
Quick sort scales worse than merge sort because the latter allows for more concurrency.
A parallel program using a barrier between outer loop iterations (f.e. matrix inversion, or computational partial differential equations) won't scale well because barriers are antithetical to concurrency.

You're making the assumption that thought is a computational process. While there's a ton of evidence to back that up, you can't claim it as an absolute truth, especially when allowing the existence of metaphysics and souls.
It would be nice if someone had some code with associated requirements, use-cases, user stories, or even test suites or documentation.

Then we could use an adversarial network to try to learn the relationship between requirements (or tests) and code.
TiDB developer here,

'This model is equivalent to the multiprocessor RDBMS—which also uses a single physical clock, because it’s a single machine—but the system bus is replaced by the network. In practice, these systems give up multi-region scale out and are confined to a single datacenter.'

I don't think so, although Percolaotor has a single point of physical clock, but it is easy to eliminate the SPOF problem by using high-availability algorithms such as Raft or Paxos (Just like the design in TiDB).
On the other hand, the strong consistency across multiple data centers, I think, without hardware devices such as TrueTime, it is difficult to have low latency and strong consistency while allowing writes happen in multiple data centers at the same time. The more realistic situation is that there is a primary data center (where both read and write occur), and multiple data centers guarantee high availability with strong consistency, we can achieve this goal by scheduling Paxos or Raft leader to the primary data center.

Is Roadside Picnic from Russia?
a) we generally don't have access to the records of any other health systems in the area.

b) we generally assume the older data is stale. In the case of omics: did they keep the unaligned reads? What version of the genome was it aligned against? Was it a graph alignment? What depth? Did my geneticist approve of this methodology? The SNP evaluation? The variants? This goes all the way down. They'll question what generation of instrument produced the data, the duty cycles on the instrument, and on, and on, and on.
The problems arise when you start to think what influences the soul's decisions. Does it make decisions solely based on its state? Then you have determinism. Not only state? Than what is this not-state that creates the free will? Adding some dice throwing into this mix does not sound like free will either.
If Google makes its female Saudi employees wear thesethese cloaks in public but gets to provide an uncensored search engine there, that's a win. But it can't follow censorship laws while providing an uncensored search engine. And a search engine that censors what the Chinese government wants to censor is pretty much broken.
How do you handle autoscaling? Server restart? Autoscaling requires credentials as part of the VM image. For server restart the credentials must be stored on the machine.

It very much depends on what's wrong with you. I've been hospitalised multiple times. Most of the times were fine, but once was neurosurgery, and I'd be woken up at regular intervals throughout the night to answer "What's your name? Where are you? What year is it? How many fingers am I holding up?" At some point there must be a crossover between the risk of an undetected problem vs the risk inherent in lack of sleep.

Not to mention "PAGING RESPOND MET CALL CODE BLUE"[0] followed by a crash cart tearing off down the hallway at 4am, and of course once you've been in the hospital for a few days you know that "MET call" means someone is probably dying and "code blue" means it's from cardiopulmonary arrest, which doesn't really help soothe you back to sleep.

I have a Samsung Gear S3 Frontier smart-watch, paired with a Sony Xperia X Compact (i.e. no samsung). My friend has a Samsung Galaxy Wear, paired with a Sony Xperia XZ Compact. Neither of us use any Samsung applications other than the required "gear"/"galaxy" app.

I'm getting Gmail, Telegram, Slack, and all sorts of other notifications just fine, and can reply to them.

So while their software sucks (unlike the hardware, their smartwatches are by far the bets ones out there), you did indeed fuck up your settings. Or you use an iPhone, which there is poor support for.

Also, while it's not a particularly trustworthy company, this specifically has nothing to do with trust.
I can do the same thing with Apple Notes. And I don’t have to pay Microsoft anything. And it’s all available to iWork. Notes even has document scanning.

For power Excel users, Numbers isn’t yet a replacement, but for everything else, the stuff that is built in to MacOS works great and is free while working seamlessly across all Apple devices. I don’t work with massive spreadsheets nor use pivot tables so for me, iWork + Notes solves office productivity pretty darned well, plus Keynote puts PowerPoint to shame.

They are both malicious and incompetent for sure. Firstly because collecting data is more important than customer preference and secondly because when the customer did make a preference or state a preference they screwed up and told the customer to fuck off respectively.

Now after 16 years of using .Net and building a lot of massive products this is the status quo of how I have been treated all along and it hasn’t changed one little bit other than the marketing so it’s time to get off the ride.

At this point I firmly believe that the “open source” drive here is part of a new market domination strategy rather than something for altruistic good. Fair enough but I don’t have any love left to give now. If you ship some stuff on every platform it looks like you are an attractive option and once you’ve bought in you can’t get off the crack smoking schizophrenic rollercoaster. I want off.
