There isn't. What I have noticed in the go community is a rabid fandom and belief that golang is the pinnacle of language design when in reality go is a language for people that think memorizing a few syntactical rules is too difficult. People used to rabidly defend the lack of generics for example and look at where we are now.

And before people identify me as a TS fanboy, I'm not, I'm a go hater.
I had to Google "sperged". That's not a nice thing to say about anyone.

I know nothing about your experience, but I know about mine, as both a full-time sysadmin and tech support guy, and later a freelance consultant, for pretty much all of the 1990s.

What you are claiming as universal truths are not.

In your world, where you saw, maybe there was little to no NT. But that is not the case everywhere. I lived and worked in London, and as a freelance consultant, I mostly worked for relatively prosperous individuals and companies, because if someone's not well off financially they don't hire consultants.

Serious businesses, in more or less every sector I worked in -- in real estate, in finance, in publishing, in media, in law -- used NT.

NT 3.x was niche. NT 4 wasn't. It did well and it didn't only take over servers; I put in maybe hundreds of NT 4 boxes for dozens of companies.

It was not bulletproof -- but it was very nearly so compared to a toy gamers' OS like Win98, and by the time W98 came out, 2 years after NT 4, NT 4 was everywhere for anyone who could afford to buy a PC specced for what they needed.

The only thing NT 4 was really bad at was laptops, and some determined folk ran it there as well.

USB stayed niche until after the iMac, so the fact that NT 4 didn't support it didn't matter to most people. What mattered is if you needed your PC to be reliable, and most business people do and will pay for a more reliable box.

I am saying you are wrong when you say that its market share was a rounding error. Not in the UK, not in London where I was from 1991 to 2014, *no*. NT 4 owned business computing. Win98 owned homes and gamers but I had a grand total of one (1) client _ever_ who ran all Win98 on their client PCs, and their server still ran NT 4.

> FYI, when people are talking about helping "the Planet" they're not talking about lifeless rocks, they're talking about preserving the diversity of life on the Planet.

I disagree, I think this is the virtue signaling projection but most people only care about global warming because they think there's a non negligible chance they'll see real impacts _on their own quality of life_ either during their life or during the life of their direct offspring. I think there's likely plenty of individuals who truly value biodiversity but with all the evidence around us I'm pretty sure the majority doesn't actually care about saving even a non-cute mammal, much less actual diversity like thousands of species of insects or bees or whatever.
It's a big mistake that the format language looks like that of printf.

If you use this in a big code base, there will still be the old printf all over the place.

Now you have to think: is this custom logging function here based on the safe printf from github, or is it vsprintf under the hood?
I don’t think the concern is unreasonable at all but ‘any’ feels pretty solid as far as I’ve had the chance to poke around. There’s some tensions where I think ‘any’ is arguably much simpler:

The baseline is that constraints aren’t best expressed as interface literals in situ. Unlike exceptional use of ‘interface{}’, ‘any’ will be a more naturally invoked constraint.

Also, some of the uses of constraints rely on a unification involving an ‘any’ term that cancels out. Here, the use of ‘interface{}’ is not incorrect but maybe indirect.
IANAL either but final adjudication is more important that what anyone claimed in the course in the trial.

If you claim X, but the court adjudicated that Not-X is true, then you can build off the fact that Not-X was adjudicated. It doesn’t matter if you claimed X at one point
I guess it depends on what you're configuring. I'm using microk8s at work and the part of my team that has to deal with the VM-encapsulated version that runs on Mac or Windows is always mired in configuration woes. Same goes for docker.

Granted, that's a far cry from touchpad configs--but if you keep your dotfiles in git then touchpad config is something you only have to once (per touchpad that you own).

That's so interesting! I did the test linked to in the article, and I noticed that I am able to "visualize" object, but have decidedly a hard time to think about how I would perceive them if I looked at them - so I guess just opposite from you.

I see them more as 3d objects, but not from the perspective of a camera, but just the model all at once. And it's always a simplification, only the concept of a tree, no tree with actual detail of a real tree. Many things only have shapes, no visual colors, no visual anything, only the shapes, as though it were a different sense.
Inflation is very rarely linear. When inflation hits, prices don't rise uniformly. Some industries have pricing power; others don't. Some professions have negotiating leverage, others don't. Those with the most negotiating leverage have the biggest ability to raise prices, while those in purely commodity businesses often get stuck with small nominal raises.

Poor people are disproportionately in competitive jobs without a lot of negotiating leverage, because if they were in a differentiated job with a lot of negotiating leverage, they'd be rich.

Sorry! To be clear, at the time I purchased my car, there weren't any that ticked off the boxes I was looking for.

Teslas were the only ones that did, that were also electric.

If I were to buy an electric car today, i would probably consider a polestar, taycan, audi, tesla. I would give them a fair shake! I'd probably end up with the taycan though, tbh. I would rather wait a year or two though, there's some really interesting things coming down the pipeline.

While you could use that as argument in most commodity market. In reality is Tyson / IBP couldn't even full-fill demands from International market, and there are plenty of buyers around the world willing to paid.

And buyers ( traders ) also bet on stocks which only further adds fuel to the current price. Just like toilet paper and chip shortage. From a market and supply chain perspective most commodities aren't that different.

I guess if you are in commodity market trading now it would be fun.

Honestly why not?

(To be clear, I don't think we should, but I know my reasons. They're not science based, because the question "Should we care if humanity causes an extiction event?" can't have a scientific answer.)
Given the high percentage of the population in SA who has already had an infection, there's probably a significant chunk of people in finding 1 who also already had natural immunity. That's probably going to make it difficult to use these results to compare vaccine-based immunity to natural immunity, right?

> Why stop at 5.25in drives? Let's go back to washing machine sized units or even bigger. Let's stack platters so dense and heavy that we can use the spindle as a flywheel UPS system too.

Current HDD tracks are around 50-60nm wide, and their limitation is not magnetic grain density (those are around 10-12nm for non-HAMR/MAMR substrates and even smaller for HAMR/MAMR substrates.) The limitation is the long (relatively speaking) actuator arm trying to precisely stay on a very narrow data track. There's actuator flexure, disk flutter, and aerodynamic noise, all of which increase with increasing platter radius. This increases your minimum track width, and minimum disk thickness/minimum disk spacing and end up defeating the purpose of bigger disks in the first place.

Also it's important to keep in mind that in order to manufacture a drive, the entire drive is written to and read back multiple times, which takes an increasingly long time, creating a huge push for some steps to be combined.

That all being said, I'm not entirely sure where the sweet spot in terms of data density per unit volume. It might be slightly more efficient with 5.25 drives. But I can assure you that the record sized or washing machine sized HDDs of olden days are not practical anymore ...though they would be dope if they did exist!

I find it interesting when people list things like 'panel gap' as a reason they won't buy a car. I grew up in Detroit and honestly it's pretty embarrassing the stuff that goes on with most Big 4 cars. Case in point - my sister worked from one for ~30 years and still gets a 'green sheet discount' so she loyally buys their brand still. it's comical how every time she gets a new car something pretty significant goes wrong within 6 months. This time, her 3 week old Jeep bricked itself because the key fob wouldn't communicate with the car and refused to start. The emergency break also suffered a software failure that refuses to unlock the break. The panel gaps though were spot on. Whew.
you bring up very good points, however cutting your own emissions is very helpful because a) rich people emit the most and b) you can be 100% sure that it works (whereas with donating you have to trust third parties) and c) it's pretty simple, even easy, to eat less meat, use less (traditional) energy and fly less. And to drive a smaller car (I don't judge americans for driving because it appears to be necessary there). And to buy less bullshit ;) you can easily reduce your CO2 (equivalent) footprint by 1/3 or more (if you are a usual person and haven't changed your behaviors yet).

Also, I think it's still misunderstood how fast change can happen if the people want it to and the politicians go for it. This hyper-capitalism feels like an eternal thing but it won't be. Because it can't. Younger generations want change and every catastrophe (and there will be many) puts pressure on the old institutions to change.

>Fine, but you'll have to take responsibility for it first.

This is kind of where I draw the line. If the manufacturer isn't willing to accept liability, then I'm not going to believe them when they say that the car can drive itself, especially if I'm paying for said feature.
I can name a great number of problems obviously, but at the end of the day, most of these challenges are bypassed with frequent supply drops that include massive steel edifices.

Oxygen? Send a fuck ton of the candles they burn on nuclear subs

Food? Send a fuck ton of food

Water? Probably better ways to do this but, fuck it, send a fuck ton of water.

Shelter from radiation temperature and weather? Go sit in the starships. Stack them together. They’re not going anywhere. Send 50x the space suits. 50x the rovers. 50x the fruit loops.

The hard part of colonizing a planet is the self sufficiency. If you can just keep the supplies coming then it’s not all that different from the ISS.

They do neither as a rule. They just twist thinking around as they mess with your brains chemistry. Sometimes that puts you in a better place for a given activity, sometimes it puts you in a worse place.

I-bonds are actually relatively poor inflation hedges because government inflation numbers usually understate actual inflation. This has been constant across multiple countries and multiple hyperinflationary events. It's like entering a contract where the party paying you also gets to set how much they pay you.

Real assets that universally desired usually do better. Things like real estate, stocks of consumer staples, and industries that are critical for conducting business (eg. transportation, or anything that's a channel to the consumer). People will continue to need these regardless of what the government does, and as long as contracts hold, their value will increase.

After a quick glimpse it seems this only supports simple actions upon registering a gesture, however it should be possible to extend for that use-case.

To abstract it a bit:
You would need to

1. Trigger an event on the gesture start (detect 3 fingers -> hold alt, mousedown)

2. Have mouse movement enabled

3. Trigger another event on gesture end (lift fingers -> mouseup, lift alt).

I don't get the obsession with Musk, neither positive or negative. He's doing significant things as far as being an industrialist goes. I think that's hard to deny. He's also an annoying personality and has a history of poor ethical decisions, which again is hard to deny. All of this taken together makes him, to me, a fairly interesting character. But that's all. So where does this passion come from? Where does the adoration come in, and the hate? To me, the emotions around Musk are way, way out of line with his impact in my life or the world at large.
