That's a very, very slim "may", at least before .NET 6 (I don't keep up with .NET anymore.)

Has anyone here read LISP in small pieces? I've never used LISP but would still like to read it. Would you recommend it? (it's not cheap, otherwise I'd just buy it without the due diligence)
I disagree. It was pretty good even back in 2005. There were a couple of very large high traffic sites I ran on it back then.

I wouldn’t use it now because the big cost is always humans in a project and anything .Net turns into a damage amplifier because of the amount of fettling and dealing with churn you have to do to get anything done. Even with .net 6.
Started looking ten years ago. Construction itself will take ten years. And years away from selecting and expropriating the site. There’s no good excuse to not be halfway there by now. It’s a make-work project. Some small organization is dragging this out because it pays well to never finish.

Edit: sorry, it’s that this sort of never-ending government project is all too common in Canada. Military procurement is an especially sore point right now, atrociously delayed.

Author should submit it to ms propaganda/evangelist department to get a MVP medal for best bs of the month. Of course MS bs regarding .NOT is nothing new. It was windows only for 21 years and marketed as portable/high speed/modern/backward compartible all that time. All that time it was a cherry picked lie. For the last 6 years they not even mange to offer GUI library. Try to use Winforms. You can’t? Too bad, linux is just for servers anyway, right? Go get Xamarin trash and suffer. “We are on journey, busy with our foundations/pr so fk off.”
The right answer was not changed for 10 years:
- never use ms tech for web, or you be vendor locked and ripped off
- ms technologies in core not changed since 00s, it is same old st in a layers of chocolate. As soon as you get inside, you puke.
- never trust ms or you be vendor locked and end up with inferior legacy technologies, without reach to support and with huge tech debt and eventually need to just throw away everything you build
- remember, facebook and google not using ms, your grandma do
> .NET isn’t open source friendly

The language runtime might technically be open source, but it’s got a huge number of closed-source packages and the ecosystem appears to be only begrudgingly open source.

> It’s slower than Node/Python/Go/Rust

One of 2 of these things, aren’t like the others. I’d believe modern .net can outpace Python, but matching or outpacing Rust is something I’d have a hard time believing, especially in the “vast majority of code” sense-I’m aware that .net can be written to stack allocate everything. I’m also aware that basically no .net code I’ve ever seen in business world has ever done that (precluding games here, because I’ve not worked with them).

> It’s for boomer enterprise development

Yes. Uncharitable presentation and framing, but yes. Every single place I’ve worked at that has used .Net has had the same attitude and approach to solving problems and writing code. Use Kafka for our events like every other company in industry? Nah, use some bizarre MS thing that nobody outside of .Net has heard of or can use. Use websockees or SSE? Nah, use some bizarre .Net version instead. Use Postgres because it’s more than good enough and other teams might need to use the database? Nah MSSQL, and all the tables are named and optimised according to EntityFramework and if you have to suffer through ODBC issues that’s a you problem!

Never mind the obtuse naming and the dogged insistence on dependency injection at every possible turn.

Am I not a fan of .Net? Correct. Is it because every time I’ve had to touch it, it’s a painful and frustrating experience.
This doesn’t work. Taxes don’t just pay the governments bills, they also work to make sure the rich don’t get too rich (otherwise your land owners could get richer than the government and toss you out of power). We are literally watching this happen in the US where the rich are too rich and basically do what they want.
The problem with China is that its people have never known democracy. The leader is eternal like Putin. You can see how an economic superpower with nukes and a dictator can go. So all the article goes about how nice and misunderstood things are in China without addressing the hard reality.
I hate how the media is trying to twist and contort the definition of cancel culture. A guy like Putin can't really be cancelled. He's so rich and powerful that him and all his descendants will never need to work again, and never have to worry about any basic needs ever again. Cancel culture is the sword pointed at the common folk, who will go hungry if they wrongthink. Not surprised to see the news media FUDing this, as the crackdown on speech amounts to a huge power grab for the managerial class.

Does anyone know of an induction hob with adjustability that doesn’t suck? My current one has 200-300 watt jumps between power output settings and it seems stupid that I can’t adjust in 5 or 10 watt increments instead!
This "250" number for China keeps being trotted out, but nobody knows how many of those will actually ever be built or operated. There is
anyway not fuel for that many, at present.

It would be more honest to cite the much smaller number that have actually broken ground. Nobody knows how many of those will be completed, or how many of those completed will be fueled or operated continuously, or where operated actually mainly generate power, as opposed to generating plutonium and tritium for weapons.
Fortunately, it's not your decision[1].

Huge difference between this and weevs case. weev did what he did knowingly and maliciously.

Needing to tie into a specific API (like codesearch) couples you to the specific storage backend (Github). If you build your software to operate on a POSIX-y file system, you can support anything that shows up as a file system. For example: A local working tree of files, an NFS share, or now a remote git repository.

Unfortunately Nuget package management is abysmal, and a development environment lives and dies by that nowadays. There's also the legacy reliance on XML that shows itself everywhere in C# development. It's easy to forget that the reason Node took off exponentially when it did is not really because it was that great itself, but because NPM (and its' small package philosophy, in combination with JSON based config) was a bit of a revolution in package management that led to network effects of adoption.
As an educated human, he should understand that when you provide written instructions it is implicitly a "do what I say" and not "do what [you infer] I mean".

What is this reference, CashApp?
There are some older libraries which are horrible enterprise-ware: WCF (Windows Communication Foundation, think SOAP) and older Entity Frameworks in particular.

From the tone of the OP I would assume that things such as encouraging good engineering practises such as good interface design and using appropriately sized units of code are also "problems" with .Net. You hear that a lot from inexperienced developers.

The thing is - the modern framework is far nicer and has largely avoided the problem. Even to the point that I prefer occasionally having to deal with some of the ugly enterprise libraries to the constant hunting down of broken dependencies, vague runtime bugs or massive framework churn you see in the Python/Javascript world. Or having an overly verbose and ugly language like Go or Java.
Sounds like we could solve this problem for for nuclear the same way we look to solve problems for renewables: storage.

The new zipcodes face the same economic incentives to restrict supply. Property owners want to see their holdings increase in value and generally have more political power. I don't see any reason why the new hot markets are going to do anything different from the old hot markets. Perhaps some will, but renters and potential homeowners will get priced out of more markets
>Humans colonizing space is essentially a religious belief

'The market' is essentially a religious belief as well. What it has called 'the Conquest of Space' is unlikely until the lack of wisdom in exploiting one's fellow man and home planet causes that religion to do itself in.

This is what I don't get about BECU being the most popular credit union in Puget Sound. Every time there's a thread on Reddit asking about the credit unions people use or if there's a newcomer who's at a social gathering or just on Twitter, BECU is always the recommended place. I don't understand, since their branches are solely there to sell you a mortgage.

Yet everyone is mad that Chase is opening branches all over town where you can do actual banking with an actual human.

(I'm neither a Chase nor BECU customer, for what it's worth.)
I applaud the ecological perspective, for other people - but I don't want to test this on myself until I've seen a couple of generations of it's impact on people's health.

Nothing personal, that's my opinion of most foods and health things, the effects take time to interact with complex systems, so I want things that have a visible history of generations to observe.

The more I've learned, the less I want to gamble about things we don't really know about but will become a part of my body.

Obviously food of today is a complex systems issue that's not possible to be absolute on to e.g. do what a culture did for the last few hundred years. Which is exactly why I want my own 'experiment' of my health to be based on simpler and better proven inputs.
People are perfectly capable of writing spaghetti code in structured programming languages (without goto) and such programs are always reducible in the sense of this article.

Actually, I have a hunch that every program that is reducible in the standard compiler sense is also reducible in the sense of the article, but the converse does not hold. 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4, 1 -> 3 -> 2 is irreducible in the compiler sense (there is a loop with two entries) but reducible in the sense of the article (first merge 2 and 3, then delete self loop, an acyclic graph remains which is trivially reducible).
Nuclear can't be shut down / turned on on a short term basis, there is a lot of inertia. It might be a solution for seasonal issues only, but in Germany, there's usually wind during the no-sun season, and sun during the no-wind season.
> Hard to imagine the Russian space programme recovering from this war.

The Russian space program never recovered from the fall of the Soviet Union. The sanctions and international outrage surrounding the Ukraine invasion, combined with the development of less expensive launch options that relieved everyone’s reliance on the Soyuz launch platform, mean everyone can stop propping the whole thing up.

Note the second word 'apparently'

Editing to add below here as I can't seem to reply to your reply.

I agree my wording wasn't clear, apologies. I meant apparently in the sense of that is what western media writes. I don't know enough about it personally to have an informed opinion of what the truth is.
Even simpler is the fact that all Michelangelo did was take away the bits of marble that weren't David.
Alternatively, I think displaying the acknowledgement message on a new page with no submission form would achieve something similar. It could even have a "post another comment" link back to an empty comment page.

This is exactly what nearly every other form I've used in the past does. I didn't try this one but it sounds like it redirects back to the form again? If so, I can definitely see double/triple-posting happening.

I know some forums will actually compare contents with the last post you made, and show a warning message "You already submitted this post".

Somebody will come up with the form factor, the process, that makes orbital solar energy practical. It'll be a game changer for the whole world.

Some ideas:
a million mirrors reflecting at a single station convertor.

A million geostationary convertors each steering generated microwaves at a low-orbit station (or series of stations).

Microscopic 'dust' convertors blown by the solar wind, distributed at random and each getting in phase with its neighbors to create microwave flashes collected by larger neighbors and relayed in turn to a solar station.

Moon-based polar solar stations that relay power to a series of lower-orbit collectors.

A ring of smaller collector umbrellas relaying power around the planet to the station that's over an area of need.

...and on and on. Something might work. It isn't about being clever; its about the ultimate cents per kWhr delivered to Pocatella Idaho
If the language and framework has been changing isnt it a good idea to inform about these things that used to be true but no longer is.

I used .NET Core for a backend API relatively recently (3.1) with no background in .NET prior (mostly javascript/typescript, php, and ruby). I found it incredibly productive and to be an enjoyable developer experience. Entity framework is one of the best ORMs I've ever worked with. Solutions and projects took some getting used to but I like it in retrospect. I now use IntelliJ products as a consequence of having used Rider for that project (developing on a mac) and enjoying the experience. C# as a language is now one of my favourites. I find it hard to convince colleagues and peers to give it a chance (mostly ruby and javascript devs) which is a shame.

I’ve also thought of this. IMHO, it would be like a professional union, not one tied to a specific employer (so opt-in only). The job of the union would be to provide legal assistance to the employee and consult with employers who hire remote workers.

Whenever one mentions misdeeds of the West, the other side answers with "whataboutism" and basically stops the discussion. How convenient to hide behind counter-accusation. It is easier to do that than to lose time and energy defending the undefendable. For example, how would one defend my sentence "USA is literally built on the genocide of the Natives and the susequent landgrab!"? You cannot, it is a fact. A fact that changes the perspective of the world in which an amoral entity preaches morality.

Yanukovych was no doubt corrupt, but Ukraine after 2014 is so squeaky clean? And, the "entire Russian Army" is after the Comedian Zelensky? Are you serious?
