I recently wanted to get back into C++ but on closer inspection, found it so thoroughly modern than it didn't really tick the sentimental box I was looking for. So I starting writing C again, and it's been weirdly enjoyable.

I still think if I were a young programmer somehow in the position of having to make a career bet on a single language, it'd be Rust. But I'd respect anyone who picked C++.
Maybe because everyone (According to Facebook anyway, which is very not true) there wants to track - GDPR ain't really about the cookies, it's about the mismatch of corporate America's desire to track versus Europe's desire to not get tracked. Heck, American companies are breaking American law, at least in California.

Pull Requests are great, but i think they can be a serious problem if you have to merge between multiple release branches, with testing and approval for each release branch.

Using Trunk-based development with feature flags seems to be me to be the best way of ensuring success with a Pull Request model.
Yes, actually I ran that for quite a while successfully before I switched to Arch Linux and Debian.

The auto-snapshot feature on updates was really cool, and direct integration then (almost 10 years ago for me) was ahead of most other distros IMO.

I then setup Arch to be more confronted with the things that actually go on under the hood, learned a lot and had generally a good experience with it. A bit later I got a job where Debian plays a key role, that sealed the deal on using Debian and Arch only for me (remembering the usage of two package managers is enough for me ^^).

But I have good memories of openSUSE, and it was the distro that I first used "full time", even introduced me to Linux to some degree (I dabbled a bit around with Ubuntu and Knoppix before).
I think the problem is not necessarily the loss in revenue due to "not harvesting data" but rather the cost of all the compliance measures and new processes the GDPR requires.

As with everything, different people are different. Thin people can get type 2 diabetes, but this is often due to inappropriate fat deposits around internal organs. In a proportion of these "skinny-fat" people, a bit more exercise and a better diet may have prevented the type 2 diabetes. A lot of it is genetic, and each different person will have a different adiposity above which they will start to develop type 2 characteristics. People with an Indian heritage need to be extra-careful on this one.

I don't understand completely why you're being downvoted. I'm european, in favour of GDPR, and I think this is a valid way of doing it. These reactions confuse me the same as using incognito or adblockers to pass paywalls and such - if that's their business model and their choice, I'm going to say no, and won't even be interested.
Well yes, militarily defeating most proponents of an idea is a reasonably effective way of subduing that idea or ideology. For historical examples, the nazi ideology is probably a major example, with the idea becoming much less prominent and widespread after WW2, all the while it's obvious that it would be quite popular in much of the world if the war had turned out differently. The idea of divinely sanctioned monarchy is another big one which was generally accepted but then mostly lost out through applied violence. The USA Civil war might also be thought of as this kind of war of ideas.

It doesn't matter at all. It is just a rehashed argument of authority, just the same old bubble mutual-congratulatory stuff that this fake enforced politeness of HN so efficiently maintains.
Short answer: yes

Long answer: on the one side, the price for combustion engined cars is going to raise, emission limits are harder to hit. Electric cars are going to get cheaper on several levels. First, batteries are getting cheaper all the time. Then, the production of electric cars is in the process of ramping up, with volume comes cost savings. Even just optimizing how batteries are being built has lots of cost saving potential. Then, the Corsa is an interesting example. It is a platform both for electric and combustion engined cars. That is not as efficient as a pure electric platform, so more cost savings here.

Finally, most car manufacturers are in the process of transitioning to electric, which costs a whole lot of money. They are trying to get these costs back by pricing them into the price of the electric cars. This is going to go down over time too.
Ah yes, another headline-only reader.

> I find it surprising that anyone could imagine that the creator of C++ is unaware of its issues.

While C++ adds a lot of new features, it does very little to solve the problems inherited from C. The lack of static introspection, a real module system and tagged unions are all inherited from C. I do think it's fair to think that if a problem is not addressed in 30 years, it just might not be considered important.

Adding tagged unions is not a sophisticated language feature. Fat pointers (c++20 std::span) also seems like a no-brainer. Maybe I'm biased by hindsight, but these features were implemented by contemporaries like Pascal?

Actually, the paper also contains a great section about fat pointers:

> The obvious solution is to supply an abstraction that holds a pointer plus a size. For example, in 1990, Dennis Ritchie proposed that to the C standard committee: "'fat pointers' whose representation will include the space to store the adjustable bounds at run-time" [Ritchie 1990]. For various reasons, the C committee didn’t approve. At the time, I heard the priceless comment: "Dennis isn’t a C expert; he never comes to the meetings." It is probably good that I don’t remember who said that.

The original statement of the axiom I heard was "it's possible to make an infinite number of arbitrary choices" - I think that's a good word for what you're getting at. Of course it doesn't matter which you choose - the axiom doesn't tell you anything about which you can choose - but whether you can choose at all is important. E.g. Hilbert's basis theorem relies on the idea that given an infinite-dimensional space you can always "start somewhere" - it doesn't matter specifically where, but it matters that you can pick a specific point in the space to start from.

I'm European and I block EU customers as well (mainly for VATMOSS though, more than GDPR, albeit I'm not sure whether I'm GDPR ready or not).

Simply put, it's a very low margin and low time investment business on my side and I'd rather work on something that can make me more money than to implement the required changes to support Europe's regulatory plat du jour.

Having worked in big businesses, even if they have the money to spend, they may face other organisational issues. Implementing any change in big businesses is not easy and takes significant more time than you would imagine.

As you correctly say, I'm sure they evaluated the cost benefit of EU visitors and concluded it wasn't as high as the cost of getting things done.

For news, that means that people will be able to access less independent content, or maybe just access what is visible behind the walled gardens of social media.
For ecommerce (and VATMOSS), stores just moved to Amazon / eBay so they don't have to deal with the complexity.

As usual, regulators screwed all us up pretending to target big business (whether it's privacy or paying sales tax) and dealt a massive blow to all the small competitors of big business.

Than you. Somebody speaks with some common sense. All major breakthroughs start small and are not cost effectvie immediately. People should be way more enthused that this is possible rather than talking about all the negatives.
The user here just wants honesty - a "As a local American* media, we cannot afford the additional costs of GDPR compliance. As such, this content is not available to EU/EEA." That's it. Not "We are evaluating options to deliver your favorite [sic] content to EEA." when they already decided to no longer server Europeans.

>I keep telling everybody to learn C and C++ irrespective of whatever else they might be forced to study/use since these literally gives them the ability to work at any level in the Software Stack

I would have agreed with you for many years, but I feel that we might be at an inflection point right now.

For many years, all new languages that got any traction at all were higher level, a bit (or a lot) slower, much more memory hungry than C and C++ and came with a huge runtime of their own.

These languages have largely replaced C++ for application development, but they are clearly less suitable for lower level tasks such as writing operating systems, drivers, ML frameworks, game engines, browsers, graphics libraries, embedded systems and libraries that are supposed to be usable across language runtimes.

But now there's Rust, which fixes a number of C++ weaknesses, comes with more modern infrastructure (such as cargo), and appears to have significant support within some of the largest corporations.

It's still very much an open question how this is going to end, but for the first time in my life as a professional developer (starting in the early 1990s), I wouldn't be surprised if C++ was in very gradual but terminal decline.
Lambert is often very competitive with Tesla and Elon doesn't like him for that reason. He is often very critical of Tesla. He never responds Electrek like he does some other blogs of that type.

He far better sources on Tesla then most people. Certainty most other websites that run with this news. He has broken news on Tesla multiple times.

Electrek has strongly moved in the direction of covering all EV launches and reporting on all of that while giving good press to all the other automakers. Accusing them of being just a Tesla fanblog is simply wrong.

Maybe 5 years ago when Tesla was the only game in town this was more correct, but its not today.

Not really, it slows only down around the time when Debian wants to make a stable release, i.e., every two years for 2-3 months or so.

Debian is in general really rigorous with ABI/Symbol versioning, dependencies and packaging in general - there are some outliers, but most of the packages in Debian is just high quality work.

On the other side is Arch Linux, where they do not even care about Kernel ABI bumps, which are trivial to detect and track, so if you pull in a kernel update you cannot load any new module, as they just overwrite the modules of the running kernel - I used it, but I find that still lunatic!

Nothing like having some complex workspace setup and then needing to connect to a VPN/WireGuard network but also forgetting to preload that module (I just load all possible relevant on start nowadays), forced a reboot, nothing lost but tedious.

On Debian this and other things where you're in limbo while some library version mismatches, or some AUR package is depending on another one, won't ever happen on Debian. It has its disadvantages, but they certainly dot their i's.

I think this is more an example of what we call “bullshit.” There’s a lot of it.
For (any subset of)rational numbers there exist many simple algorithms to form an ordering. eg. Take the number is reduced for `(+/-)a/b`. A number is smaller if its `a+b` is smaller. In case of tie number is smaller if its `a` is smaller. Even in case of tie positive number is smaller.

I don't know the proof but there could be no algorithm like that for real numbers.

> The learning curve is an absolute wall when installing, even after several years on Linux, but after that it's pretty standard.

I'm surprised, I found it very easy to get into Arch linux. But I came from distributions like Slackware & Gentoo where it was common to do the installation almost entirely from commands in the terminal.

IMO distributions that keep the installation primarily command-line focused are a good way for beginners to get started, it gives them a real grasp of how linux works, and how to change things to suit.

It's not counting on a magic bullet that concerning, it's the overconfidence we understand all the variables in the system(s). That is, we act as if there are no significant unknowns. Unprecedented, global scale, and unknowns all go hand in hand.

Even in a Covid 19 aware world there's still a fair amount of denial about the complexity of the global economy. What happens if dissent - not co-operation - increases? It can certainly be argued that both invasions of Afghanistan were for resources. Suddened the gears will shift and world leaders are going to stick to peaceful cooperation?

Put another way, as stress in the systems begin to surface it seems unlikely humans will remain rational and broadly organized. The social fabric will likely breakdown before anything else. Trying to predict the future is difficult enough. Add to that, human emotional / psychological response to extremes - real as well as perceived - and all the models / scenarios mentioned in the article could end badly.
Huh. I could've sworn the name and concept of the Dark Forest hypothesis predated Liu Cixin's book. Obviously I have it completely arse-about-face - I thought he developed the series based upon the concept, not the other way around.

If you count the externalities of nuclear (eventually having to abandon a city every hundred years or so), gas (some pollution, catastrophic climate change), and coal (pollution, catastrophic climate change), wind and solar look really cheap. Hydro can also be useful by creating reservoirs of fresh water for managing drought cycles.

The biggest issue is that we don’t monetize the externalities in the current state.
> So randomness seems like a good fit for "choice" here, no?

The axiom of choice is exactly the thing that tells us that we can make "random" choices. The way set theory works is that you have axioms to talk about intuitions of sets. So you might say that such a reasonable intuition is that we can make "make unlimited random choices", but this is exactly the axiom of choice!

It's not about a choice from an infinity but an infinity of choices.
