Agreed; such an analysis/study would be nice to have. It is worth to point that the small tests were the results of test input reduction --- the original tests were often quite large. Many of the bugs were due to incorrect handling of corner/boundary cases, such as "division by zero" (which has well-defined semantics in SMT-LIB).
I find that with ORMs you'll inevitably run into some kind of corner cases that is not covered, migration issues, library or framework incompatibility. Some argue for query builders but if you're doing that you might as well just write SQL.

He also forgot you can simply keep upgrading you PC, and your PC can play all your old games without having to repurchase them.

Also, if you added another $800 to your PC every 7 years it would still outperform a console.

Also a gaming PC is still a usable computer, a console is not. Therefore a home PC can pay for itself by letting you code on it or whatever it is you may do.

This is what worries me with younger generations.

Yes, this is often more difficult than it seems, this is typically something that requires experience and wisdom.

When unsure, it is still better to write less abstract code and somewhat messy code than falling into the over-engineering trap.

It will cost less to fix and it will also cost less to write in the first place.

Commission size has nothing to do with anti-trust here. Apple didn't increase the rate from 2008, hence there's no basis for argument of anti-trust violation. It does undermines public (non-judicial) argument that App Store fee is bad for small developers, though.
You could rip an M1 chip out of a Mac, but then you have the problem that there are no publicly available device drivers for many of the peripherals integrated on to the chip, such as the proprietary Apple GPU cores, neural engine and probably also things like the thunderbolt and other interface components. Also how does the kernel manage things like the BIGLittle cpu architecture, power management systems, etc.

What could be very interesting though is emulating a Pi on an M1 Mac in virtualisation.

Of course it is. The kernel knows absolutely nothing about the hardware shaders' instruction set or machine code format. The userspace libraries have an entire compiler in them. The kernel just forwards the output of this compiler to the hardware.

No, majority of the App Store revenue come from big developers. Think YouTube, all the freemium games, etc.

> The change will affect roughly 98 percent of the companies that pay Apple a commission, according to estimates from Sensor Tower, an app analytics firm. But those developers accounted for less than 5 percent of App Store revenues last year, Sensor Tower said. Apple said the new rate would affect the “vast majority” of its developers, but declined to offer specific numbers.

You’re kidding, right?

I don’t know how it is in the Land of the Free, but in Europe most margins on food are in the single digits all the way down. It’s true that small producers are squeezed at both ends, but at least there are market dynamics in place - if one supermarket chain takes too much, you go and sell to the other one, and the consumer can get it anyway.

Double-digit and triple-digit margins are the reason the software world is now dominating the economy. Most other sectors can only dream of that.
Files aren't modules. Modules are defined in the source code the same way as any named "item" in the language, like structs and functions.

The only difference is that content of `{}` following the definition of a module can be read from another file.

You can have a module without a file:

mod foo {
fn function_in_foo() {}
mod bar {
// this is crate::foo::bar module!
}
}

but if you omit {}:

mod foo;

Rust will look for `foo.rs` to drop its content where the {} should have been. But namespacing is governed by `mod` declarations alone, not files.

This is a frankly ridiculous take and completely misunderstands what makes Electron attractive.

There are no "Electron-based Mac apps", because nobody is targeting the Mac specifically with those apps. What we do have is web-first apps that use Electron to provide a desktop experience (like Slack), and desktop-first apps that use Electron as a multi-platform runtime (like VS Code).

The first group tends to have webview-based "native" apps and running those on the Mac wouldn't realise any of the expected advantages of a native app. The latter group won't have any sort of native iOS app to begin with. At any rate, neither of those groups is likely to migrate to native apps because of this move.
As cecilpl2 commented - it's the typically the binary art assets (occasionally other files) which are unmergeable which need the exclusive lock turned on. And of course you want to avoid branching those too in many cases.
There is a lot of pattern-based theorem proving in the works of Ramanujan, Jacobi and Euler. This is beautiful mathematics, but this is not how usual mathematical research is done.

If there is a niche for “appstore for grannies”, a free market will eventually get it.

Security is a non-issue. If Apple were really worried about that, they would allow appstores in a regulated form with certain security rules.
Cynical or not, putting pressure on companies works and negative attention is a valid tactic when the issue is subject to reasonable debate.

Considering their volume fifteen percent should still allow them to rake in ridiculous amounts of money. However one area I still support Apple is selling of additional product within the store should still be subject to a charge; as in the Epic store selling additional games should be subject to the same rules as selling any content on the store yet you should be able to purchase outside the store and redeem codes within apps to use them; similar to how Steam allows developers to sell keys outside of Steam
I think about like a dependency graph. I am make and the recipe is the Makefile.

When I was learning to cook my process was to read the recipe thoroughly, including any instruction on techniques. A good book will tell you how to chop an onion and sauté it. I would then distil this into a dependency graph which I would write down in a book. I still have this book. A recipe in there looks something like this (excuse the bad ASCII art):

2 eggs -|
200g sugar -|---- beat together---|
200g butter -| |
|--- combine --- bake
240g flour -| |
1tsp baking pdr -|-- combine ------|
1tsp vanilla -|

Notice that, just like make, I don't need to write down how to beat or combine stuff together. I have a library of known steps to get from those ingredients to the desired state.

Nowadays I don't have to actually write this down because I stick to a few cuisines that I know well (English, French, Italian and Indian generally). I know 90% of the techniques I'll need for any recipe so I can simply read the recipe, assimilate it, then execute it in the kitchen.

The two biggest mistake I see new cooks making is not reading a recipe through first, and not building a library of common techniques. Instead I see people taking the original recipe right into the kitchen, often on their phone these days, and executing it as they are reading it through for the first time. This usually leads to incredible amount of wasted time due to poor scheduling. Always aim to be free of the recipe. Like a musician you should eventually be able to play the piece without the music.

This is a normal PCR test that you send in. It's the same as the ones you do in hospitals or airports and not a rapid-testing kit which delivers results within minutes on your couch.

With the massive downside that it still requires professional handling to get a decent swab which most of the people aren't trained for, thereby likely skewing the results (shitty swab = no detection).

In fact, this very same company has a testing center at Hamburg Airport.

> You do realize that email is older than DKIM?

The original email spec doesn't provide any security against forgeries. The "sent from" field in email is about as secure as the "sent from" field in physical letters. The only reason why laypersons consider email to be non-repudiable is because of additional protocols like SPF and DKIM that were implemented after the original spec. Without these protocols email would be considered repudiable, which OP considers to be a preferrable outcome.

> And that commerce existed before emails?

Yes, and? I'm not claiming that all commerce would come to a halt immediately if this campaign for email repudiability was successful. Of course commerce would continue to exist. But the world would be worse off, not better. There would be slightly more disputes, and dishonest parties would increase their chances of defrauding honest parties.

> You don't need DKIM to solve the issues you've pointed out.

Are you alluding to hypothetical alternative protocols for authenticating contracts? If you can make the world move off from email, that's great! Email is horrible! But if you can't make people move away from email, you won't make the world a better place by making email less secure.

> Again: How many disputes like that have been resolved with DKIM?

How many? As in, you expect me to have statistics on it? Are we pretending that when people resolve disputes, they mark their disputes in some kind of global database that we can query for statistics? You're not making any sense.
I’d love to hear from anyone who uses mobian (or really, any Linux distro) as a daily driver. How do you like it? What’s the biggest drawback?
That's not really the reason. It's important that the concept of phase is not something absolute, it only makes sense in relation to something. Absolute phase could be defined from the beginning of the universe which is nonsensical .

You are right nobody can hear phase, but nobody can see phase either again because you need to relate (interfere) to something.
However it does make a difference if we think about the superposition (interference) of different audio frequency components. We would definitely here some of those phase differences.

That said iq does not make sense in audio processing because it's baseband. There is no carrier wave.

But it's not "mixed up" if you start from the premise that a full land war cannot be won. Consider why Saddam was not deposed in the Gulf War. It's because to depose him the coalition would have to go all the way to Baghdad and endure a guerilla war, something that a conventional army just can't really endure. That's why Bush did not go for it - he knew Saddam would not go quietly into the night, but he also knew he could not win the land war against Iraq. So the operation ended in a withdrawal, much like the second gulf war will also end in a withdrawal, allowing the local elites to re-emerge. Epic fail.

That's like saying we "won" in Afghanistan just because the Taliban temporarily moved elsewhere. As long you don't have permanent control of the country, you haven't really "won" anything there. And I don't think you will argue that we have any kind of permanent control there, then or now, or can realistically get it in the future.

At least the Gulf War achieved something worthwhile. Later Iraqi and Afghan wars achieved nothing whatsoever.

Right. But that's just facilitating a transaction, which is usually not a 30% cut.

Again, standard and reasonable are different things. And again, the problem is you can't choose the type of relationship.

> If it wasn't reasonable people wouldn't publish with Steam, Gog, Nintendo (nintendo lowered the rate if you look at the IGN link to 30% to match other stores).

People get pressured into unreasonable rates all the time...

It's always going to be viable for someone to publish. Even with a 90% fee. But surely we can agree that 90% would not be reasonable, even if it was standard?
