Agreed. Visual Studio is an excellent piece of software, along with .NET and C#.

I think Apple isn't that bad either, yet still behind MS.

Google is a disaster though. A few weeks ago I needed to download Android Studio. Downloaded a clean stable release from its official site for my machine (M1 Mac). From that clean install literally erroring while trying to launch AVDs to cryptic error messages about JDK environments, Google's the only IDE out of these big three where I get countless of errors and losing hours on something that literally doesn't work out of the box.

Hope Xcode and VS never becomes something crappy like Android Studio.
You may have it backwards because in real life patching too soon can be equally risky, specifically with Microsoft products.

In my experience it's the slowest language to compile ever, and the binaries generated are gargantuan.

Ah, sorry I misunderstood.

Addressed, yeah, but I would not say solved for the general case of all the namespaces.

"Just put me in a (sand)box" is actually really tricky with namespaces, and depends on if you started off as root or not.

More on using namespaces to drop privs: https://blog.habets.se/2022/03/Dropping-privileges.html (another backburner project)

It's early morning so I may be wrong, but my testing seems to show that actually yes you can still fchdir() your way out of a file system namespace.
> Not understanding that nuclear doesn’t play well with renewables (it is hard to control the output in a short amount of time).

That's actually not been true for the last 40 years or so. In France, nuclear power plants have been doing load following without problem. They are apparently able to adjust their production by 80% over 30 minutes. One such episode is explained here: https://lenergeek.com/2019/03/07/mix-electrique-nucleaire-tr...

Not true.

1. If this is to be believed, then the median household income is about $10k: https://news.gallup.com/poll/166211/worldwide-median-househo...

That's enough to get cheap cars that cost $10k or less when new (something like this: https://www.dacia.de/modelle/sandero/konfigurator.html). There are even cheaper Indian and Chinese options.

2. We're 8 billion. At least 2-3 billion have enough income to get Renaults and the other brands I mentioned. Norway is the outlier (middle class Norwegians making $100k+), not this very large group of people probably making $10-15k per year (individually).

Looks like the article on the-scientist summarized the relevant study incorrectly. The study itself posits 3.1 million deaths averted across 11 countries in Europe, not just in the UK:

> We find that across 11 countries 3.1 (2.8–3.5) million deaths have been averted owing to interventions since the beginning of the epidemic.

A bit concerning though that the second paragraph in the the-scientist article made such a significant mistake in summarizing the research.

This doesn't go into detail of how to make stackfull continuations work (and indeed when it is necessary to make a new stack). If you're working in C, you need to use inline assembly for this. setjmp and longjmp are not stackfull.

Germans simply won't admit this. I talked to some people who are in high positions in the Green Party, and they all have this obviously stupid belief that we will simply switch to renewables instead of reactivating nuclear. What they don't grasp is there is no such option. It's either nuclear or coal/gas. Any argument against nuclear must take into account the extreme damage Germany is doing to the environment with their current strategy.

Then pay them with state money if needed.

> If missing gas leads to industry breaking down, more Germans will be.

And if we have to choose between EU falling apart and millions of people abroad dying or some Germans temporarily getting a little less wealthy - we will choose supporting our industry every time cause it's the only thing that matters.

That's the main problem with Germany.

> Already, wannabe autocrats are winding up their propaganda.

Russia was supporting wannabe and actual autocrats all over the world for decades. Including AfD in Germany.

It's not even just secret financial support or propaganda - just last year Russian army helped Lukashenko "pacify" protesters after he faked elections. This year it did the same in Kazakchstan. That's direct military support. Sending Russian army to kill people protesting against their autocratic governments.

Apparently that's fine but if it was indirect support through industry in Germany losing money it would be too much.

If you care about autocrats you should stop paying Putin billions of euro.

But what Germany really cares about is sweet sweet export money. Everything else is an excuse.
Well, those are slightly different from each other. For example, the "k" (ก) used in "chicken" (ko kai) sounds more like a "g".
Not to rain on your parade - a few points are definitely justified - but Poland has just switched to fill their "natural gas gap" with imports from Germany when it was cut off by Russia recently. Did you ever ask yourself where that "German" natural gas is actually coming from?
This is the main reason I’d recommend that a Node programmer learn Go first.

I haven’t learned Rust yet, thought I’m quite keen to do so, but I have an (ancient) background in C, C++ and 8-bit assembly. I don’t find that I really use much of that knowledge when I work in Go, even though Go is still a lot closer to the metal than Node.

Yes, DDT was useful in malaria eradication - and would have been more useful for that purpose if it had been restricted from its most important economic use case as an agricultural pesticide.

Remember: it was agricultural use Carson (and others) argued against, and it was due to agricultural use immunity spread so it's no longer useful for vector control.

Germany massively cut funding for solar power being supplied into to the grid (Einspeise­vergütung) back in 2012 [1] and it still isn't funded the way it was before.

But it is and was still worth it for most people, if they just consumed most of the electricity themselves. [2]

Which is why it is very important to analyze the situation afterwards. Then you can tell whether somebody overstepped their authority.

You can't just declare an emergency and then unilaterally decide that everything was done For The Greater Good and must never be questioned. If you impose your will onto others then you must have an extremely good justification for it. A justification that others analyze and criticize.
The bigger fails I've found in my dev career are over-architecture. Devs that though they were able to ideate quasi magical architectures that handle every single use case and adapt to any future changes. The result: very custom architectures that force devs to do things in weird and complex ways and get outdated as soon as the promoter leaves the company. Everything becomes slow and devs get frustrated. Many projects are already using the architecture and it turns very difficult to remove.

My advice: choose between the existing architecture options and stick to the standard as much as possible. Use existing tools and keep them up to date. Innovate in architecture only if your company has a specific interest in the architecture itself and they want to invest in maintaining it as one of their products (documentation, maintainers...)

You won't "learn" rust by reading it but you get a pretty good picture of the basics in my opinion.

Maybe someone more experienced can rate these as i don't have comparisons yet.
Minor nitpick but goroutines are absolutely not preemptable, they’re cooperative. The go compiler regularly sticks in yield statements around IO, and certain function calls, but you absolutely can starve the runtime by running a number of goroutines equal to the number of cores doing heavy computation, just like Node.JS’s event loop.
TinyGo is great, I used to to program microcontrollers and there wasn’t anything I really missed, though admittedly it was a very small program.

To me it just looks like they fragmented their own market for no good reason and drove a lot of business to competitors competing with them with their own product. Before Centos, the upsell for Red Hat support was pretty easy: lots of companies were already using it anyway so twisting their arms a little for some support money was probably easy.

Now, not so much. Do they even know who uses Alm or Rocky or Amazon Linux or Oracle Linux? Do these companies share their CRM data with IBM/Red Hat. Probably not. And of course both are in the business of providing support and consultancy themselves. IBM does the hard work and those companies reap the benefits. Very noble but not very smart.

The whole setup is weird. The only reason for these distributions to exist at all is that IBM/Red Hat refuses to distribute their own software directly. They are still doing the work and providing it for free in source code form (not optional) which is why this works at all. But they've created this whole side hustle that is cutting them off from their own user base. How is that in any way a smart business strategy? All they'd have to do to fix it is roll back to just providing Red Hat to people that want it for free and then up-sell them on support contracts. That's business they aren't currently getting.
The above post is simply not correct. I got into Microsoft without either a résumé or a degree.
That's true, it's a inherent risk when you deal with "programmable money" in a open and decentralized ecosystem.

While it is a risk, major platforms (like the ones mentioned in parent comment [except Compound]) haven't actually had any exploits of that scope (yet?).

rekt.news is probably one of the best sources of news when it comes to exploits in both "pure" defi and also centralized "defi" (which, doesn't even make sense but I digress) like Celsius. Only Compound has been mentioned there.

Overall, the platforms have been running for a long time, during ups and down, and seem relatively stable at this point, if you're fine with the overall risk cryptocurrencies present.

It's what you get support for. At my job we run several third party applications that are targeted at RHEL/RHEL-clones. Sure, they might run on other distros, but if you need the vendors support, you better be running RHEL/CentOS/Alma/Rocky.

Supercomputing centers and all the servers are prime candidates, where the hardware and software stack never change for the lifetime of the computer (which is around 7-8 years at least).

Do note that what users can use on that, and what system admins use is a completely different stack. Users get an update almost every 3 months. The stability is more for the hardware drivers and things like that, where things are still very iffy because a lot of hardware is actually latest hardware, so not all bugs have been sorted. Infiniband for example is not stable and mainstream at all.

Ubuntu will go through two LTS releases in that time, while you can continue with a single RHEL/CentOS release.

One word comes to mind when I think of free roaming robots - Jawas.

As a kid, a slightly distressing part of Star Wars was R2D2 getting
zapped by a band of cute but spooky-eyed scavengers who kidnap and
sell robots for spare parts!

Robots may survive in well lit, surveilled streets of Earth's cities,
but they won't need to wander as far as outer-rim desert world of
Tatooine to get into trouble.

A situation much like the early days of network hacking, but in the
real physical world is latent. Despite benevolent anthropomorphism,
robots aren't much loved by humans. They're packed with valuable
electronics. But much more fun... they can be captured, hacked to
perform the bidding of a new master and released back into
circulation. Iran capturing the RQ-170 stealth drone in 2011 was
almost inevitable but portends a new frontier in digital defence in
physical space. Ultimately this leads to robots that can "defend
themselves", and so to the obvious escalation of force between humans
and machines.

For this reason I predict that, like domesticated dogs, robots have
limited room to rove, close to protective masters.
1. Your article on nuclear energy just says that France has reactors that need maintenance. It also says they produce less electricity because they need cold water which is not currently available because of heat waves and droughts. Both are temporary problems that can be planned around or avoided by over-provisioning capacity. As the original article notes, you cannot over-provision capacity with renewable energies because they tend to produce 100x less power on windless or cloudy days.

2. It's more efficient to burn gas and collect the heat for industrial processes that go through an intermediary step of converting heat into electricity. I don't think it has anything to do with gas being irreplaceable as a source of heat. Gas can be necessary as a chemical precursor in some reactions - which can't be replaced by electricity - but that has nothing to do with heat.

> First, the entire financial system can and will be made digital

That is a very bold statement.

> Then, you have all online goods: (…)

Those all suffer from the exact same problem than physical assets, they exist and have a purpose outside the blockchain. You already have the oracle problem.

> credibly neutral and publicly interoperable accounting

This is again a very bold statement and facts disagree with you. Blockchains are not interoperable with one another and cannot be, for starters.

> which could one day be 50% of the world economy

This is pure wishful speculation on your part and is based on absolutely nothing.
