Right now on the very first issues page 5 issues out of 21 (if we skip feature requests) are about broken codegen (i.e. C errors). I'd expect a stable implementation to have very few codegen problems, not like this; I'd expect something like subtle correctness issues or various bugs in the standard library to be much more common (larger surface area).

Another interesting example is this: https://github.com/vlang/v/issues/14804

Passing a variable to a function works, but passing a string literal doesn't. I wonder why stuff like that even happens, it leaves an impression that the compiler has hardcoded special cases internally and breaks on input which wasn't foreseen by the implementation authors. Your solution is to get rid of the method entirely instead of fixing it, which is also somewhat strange to me. Can you explain?

>Interesting. I have always felt the opposite. It's always been stable for me

It could be that the patterns you use when writing V code are well-tested but when someone strays from the path and does something you wouldn't do when writing V code it easily breaks the compiler.
I'm exactly the same as you, but my adolescent children all turn to TickTock or YT when searching for an answer.

They can't google for shit, unfortunately. My fault probably, but as I managed to learn all of this on my own, I expected them to do the same.
They've had decades to question this the moment researchers came out with evidence of the complexity of the entire matter, and the status quo failing to capture any of said complexity. 'Intuition' has still reigned till this day regardless.
Frameable | Remote GMT-4 | https://frameable.com/careers

We build next-generation virtual spaces for working together. Tech stack is WebRTC, Node, Vue, WebSockets.

We are hiring for many positions, but especially interested in augmenting our WebRTC capacity, both human and technical. We run our own fleet of mediasoup-powered SFUs, and are working on all sorts of fun and hard problems:

- Voice detection and noise cancellation with wasm/tensorflow

- Being robust to so, so many shenanigans introduced by corporate "adaptive firewalls"

- Geographically distributed TURN servers

- Connection quality scoring and analytics in mediasoup

More on this position here: https://frameable.com/company/careers/streaming-media-engine...

Also hiring for other positions as well including a designer, full-stack engineers, and a QA engineer. It's fun stuff and we are a ambitious, scrappy, delightful team. Come join us!

Those articles aren’t exactly uncommon around here; although it’s usually more polite to just look for them on the front page rather than asking people to post them in threads that happen to be thematically related. It just creates noise, you know?
The agreement with China was signed by Thatcher. That's long ago, mid-1980s. At the time, they were naively certain that increased economic liberalization and increased market economic activity in China would lead to political freedom as well. (Same about 1990s Russia: the west hoped a new economic system would lead to political freedom. Wishful thinking?)
To be clear, this isn’t the “I can do what I want” kind of freedom, this is the “my country can do what it wants” kind of freedom, right? Because if we’re talking about personal freedom, then can you help me understand how they square it with an admitted dictatorship and a (reputation for a) culture of “don’t make trouble, just endure it”?

> What's wrong with the division by zero issue? It works just like in Go?

As I understand it, V's emitted C code (in release mode) does not handle the possibility of a divide by zero. As such, according to the C spec, you've now entered territory where literally anything could happen depending on how the compiler or platform is implemented.

Go, alternatively, detects a divide by zero and panics (like V does in debug mode) which will consistently occur regardless of compiler or platform because it is defined behavior.

In the case of the user in the issue, he got a SIGILL but other OSes, compiler versions, architectures, etc. could result in some other outcome entirely.

I'm not familiar with where V is ported to, do all the supported platforms result in the same behavior?
It's hard to say without knowing what projects they cut as part of the process.

If you want to cancel a larger project you can either gut it, and do the work to relocate everyone only to lay them off slowly, or you can do a larger layoff and only relocate people you plan to keep.
I can't tell if these questions are sarcastic, so I guess I'll answer.

Facebook? Yes, of course. The core of their business model is stalker-like spying, which they then leverage against their users (and non-users). They are irredeemably evil. Fixing the evil would ruin the business. Their business is evil.

Paypal? See: literally any discussion of them on practically any website, including this one. Yes, they're evil. Unlike Facebook, though, they could probably remain profitable while not being evil, so they're a bit better I suppose.
The hard part of this narrative is that all of us work for companies that do some things we wouldn’t consider our “values”. Take simply advertising, for example, we all hate ‘em, we all use ad blockers, and our employers all advertise. Of course by ‘all’ I mean ‘most’ or ‘a lot’, take your pick, I’m not making claims about literally every last one, I know there’s a wide variation of experience, but chances are high that your employer routinely has to do things you wouldn’t want to do, right?

This is true even when your employer is you. :) I feel like it gets even worse when you start a business and become a walking self-contradiction. That’s when I started doing things, like advertising, and adding analytics, stuff I normally don’t like as a user. (The problem, of course: advertising and analytics work.)

Maybe these things are below the threshold of values we’d quit over, and maybe some companies can be pretty extreme, but I think there’s a fuzzy gray line between the small values we overlook and the values we care enough to decline employment over, or at least I can see that in myself.

The title has been editorialized and its weakest claim taken out.
I think you got to discount points of view from the perspective of how valuable their perspective is to your goal. The problem with social media and open forums is that it’s not obvious and takes time to figure out who’s who.

Having said that, it seems a little childish to me that Ron just shut down the haters. I think that there might be a bit of his ego attached to the outcome versus the process. I can only speculate that perhaps he wanted recognition and adulation for this bold choice and was hurt when feedback didn’t match expectations.

Sure people might be rude about it, but it seems that there is clearly a market for the retro pixelated aesthetic, so why not give people what they want if his goal is to satisfy the fan base and continue the story? I have no doubt the story, set, characters and jokes will be great. I guess the comment asking for Ron to do a Sonic might have been too on the nose for him.

I think that any creator has to reconcile that if they create for others, their art becomes something more than just theirs, like a sort of reflexive co-creation.

Seems to me the best artists understand this while not letting it stifle their creativity.
The top comment is slandering it as propaganda, because it doesn't follow the narrative close enough. The top comment.

SV/USA can't have mature and fact-oriented discourse about China because it is in deep denial about SZ/China surpassing it. Started happening big time with TikTok.
I'm not an history expert, but my understanding when the US entered the WWII and pushed hard to change the tide of war, you could say the US won the war - it gave the US a place in the world stage (with it's responsibilities, but also, some perks).

Would the US be the country it is nowadays if it didn't join WWII? Probably not, it would be a very different world.

The healthiest thing for a creative person to do is ignore reviews, and not pay attention to comments about your work. Mentally, and emotionally, and creatively, I mean. Your job is to make things that other people can appreciate, or not, but you don't need to listen to them if you don't want to. Active community engagement is a fairly recent phenomenon, and it's a marketing technique, not an artistic one. I'm sure it works for some people, but don't feel like you need to do it if it causes you pain, and not, by any means, if it makes it harder to do your job.

It may feel necessary in 2022 to engage with fans and build a personal brand, but go ahead and audit the creators you really respect, and how many of them do this. Some do, I'm sure, but some don't.

I don't really agree. V seems to attract a much larger than normal swath of people who enjoy trying to score points off of technicalities. e.g. people claiming the entirety of V is an unsafe language because they found a single bug in the compiler, etc. Languages like Rust never garner this sort of point scoring in the comments.

> as far as I've seen they are quick on the trigger in regards to banning or blocking people that they disagree with

Do you have any source for this claim? Without a source this simply reads as another person trying to sow uncertainty and doubt. I haven't seen anyone banned or blocked on Github.
What the hell does the recent Russian hostility has to do with this? Sanctions? You mean that the privacy laws that have been ignored and laughed at are not a bad enough violation? Apparently it's not, huh.

Google and Facebook have been extremely anti-privacy since practically their inception but suddenly NOW it's a problem because an attached Russian company has been doing what Google has been enabling any company to do, for decades?

Gosh. If that's how humanity can be made to react to public safety issues that I am seriously not impressed by our race, to put it diplomatically and mildly.

Looks like there is a plan to implement Wayland in Kfce: https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap
Yeah that's definitely an issue! It's probably a bit less tractable than what we're dealing with because

1. Scrappers likely don't have the skills, equipment or inclination that AC technicians do.

2. Those self-contained units typically have a lot less refrigerant than the split AC systems (or large chillers) we see, which require venting in order to remove once installed. A refrigerator might have only 30 grams of charge, vs a split system with 2-3 kg.

My sister-in-law homeschooled most of her kids. OTOH, she left her full-time job as an elementary school teacher to do that. Right after my kid brother got a new, far-better-paid job, which made that a viable option.

She's still kinda involved with homeschooling. From various comments on what that is like these days (post-1990's), there are a huge number of resources already on the web to support homeschooling.

When you see different static site generators in the wild, most people want:

- api for creating pages from remote data
- developer experience
- build speed

But if you plan on using a headless CMS, your must prioritize decoupling the authoring from build times.

Your marketing team needs instant feedback, your options are now:

- use client side rendering for page previews. (i.e. use a js-based framework)
- containerize your project & run the framework's dev mode as a preview server (i.e. you might as well have not used a SSG)
Not far right to you. I'm curious what you think exemplifies far right.

That´s my hope as well, however in 2001, I was getting flooded with recruiter messages at the same time that layoffs were going on. For a few months people were having pink-slip parties because they just assumed it was always 1999. It was pretty scary, to be honest.

Eventually the recruiter messages tapered off until about.. 2005.
In most states, and federally, political views aren't protected either. Keep that in mind with your McCarthyism-like lists. And businesses can already discriminate against gun owners without a list or specifically knowing who owns a firearm. They just have to hang a visible sign on the door that firearms are not allowed and you're legally trespassing if you go in, employee or not.

In the other thread about this, someone brought up the colloquially named "Zelda Effect".
