Then you should say: "a person who just starts with .Net".

> And please stop this fake reality bullshit. NOBODY, not a single freaking person who wants to learn a new language will start off by searching the internet for an IDE and debugger

I started with .net only 4 years ago. I went ahead and got myself Rider because I dislike VS Code and I already had 6 years experience with other JetBrains IDEs.

Oh look. I'm that "no single person" who went ahead and looked for an IDE. And bought it

Screaming nonsense at the top of your lungs doesn't make you any closer to reality.
New houses aren't much better. Windows are much larger, but triple glazing windows keep a lot of light out. A winter in Europe will be dark in nearly any home.
Surprisingly not! 10 years ago, retail store applicants were already asked to apply online.
But most estimates are completely wrong (much worse than +/-50%). Only accurate estimates can possibly be useful for planning, and very few estimates of time and cost for software projects are accurate.
Is the tool to convert to azw3 part of the toolkit available to contributors, or do you perform that conversion in-house after the volunteer has made the epub?
I’ve been a C# developer for a decade and I still think it’s hopelessly convoluted for getting very simple things up and running. Maybe there is something wrong with me, but it’s just not intuitive to me and it has frankly never been. I do think the move to core and then core to .net has improved things, but it’s still a really weird and way of doing things compared to other languages that I have worked with, and most of the “boiler plate projects” are very rarely useful, so why are they there?

Then once you need to go beyond the standard libraries it becomes a nightmare to deal with. In some cases, like extending the AD libraries, it’s sort of easy to extend classes with methods but the documentation on how to do so tends to assume a lot of domain knowledge. In other cases like if EF’s standard functionality isn’t enough for you, or you need to deal with weirdly formatted XML or non standard SOAP requests (don’t ask) it can be such a nightmare that it’s sometimes easier to write a micro-service in another language to do the “translation”.

I think it speaks of a language that doesn’t see too much use by its own creators. I may be wrong on that, but having build a lot of things for Azure, Typescript has often felt more like a first class citizen than C#. Obviously not for everything, far from it, but sometimes and those sometimes are enough to make C# troublesome because unlike things like typescript that are great second class citizens in the Microsoft ecosystem, C# isn’t. It either fits really well or you have to fight it.
I think we could make argument that autopilot is a unfit system for car travel.

Both air and water the distances and reaction times needed are much much longer. At least in the situations autopilots are used. And they are not really used in situations where manual control is needed.

As whitebelt who recently started Brazilian jiu-jitsu, I was aware of how strategic it would be but I wasn't fully prepared for how dumb I would actually feel. At the start everyone always seemed two steps ahead of me. So far the journey and the growth I've seen have been incredibly intellectually simulating.
This is highly unlikely. An accident, where radiation leaks, maybe, but for a nuke to go off, everything has to work flawless.
Then maybe a range could be a good idea?

Oddly, the US Department of Energy's statutory responsibility for "the safety and reliability of the nuclear arsenal" is officially interpreted within the department as: safety, it goes bang when you push the button; and reliability, it makes as big a bang as it says on the tin.

Of course this "safety" has absolutely nothing to do with what the public naturally assumes is meant, which is typically that it won't go bang when you don't push the button, or leak, or be hijacked, or fall out of a plane carrying it. The DoE considers none of those its responsibility under the law.

One might guess that going bang when the button is not pressed would be extremely unlikely. But when a B-52 crew made a booboo and dropped a pair of hydrogen bombs in a farmer's field, investigation showed that all of the processes that would have set them off completed; just not all on the same bomb.

So, after a full-scale catastrophe it's still significantly fewer casualties than from normal operation of coal, for example.
I would say on the contrary, French people start stuff pretty much at the same rate as everyone else, as long as things are done under the radar. But the moment a topic becomes twitter-fodder, we develop pockets of resistance, and, all clichés aside, "being in a pocket of resistance" is at the earth of French persona. (We still teach kids and conservatives that Asterix and De Gaulle won their wars.)

We had three presidential candidates running on a platform of "windmills are ugly, let's not do that", and at least three on the platform of "nuclear plants are dangerous, let's not do that". I'm kinda worried that "solar panels are ugly, let's not do that" is gaining traction; and I wonder who's going to be the first to oppose dams, but there's a niche.
There are lots of good use cases. The basement storage area of my apartment complex boarded up all the small windows for maintenance / security reasons, but I use my basement as a micro-workshop. Having a fake daylight simulator window would be excellent.

Similarly my office has some small spaces that are perfectly sized for taking calls or having 1-on-1 meetings, but to depressing to sit in for more than an hour since there are no windows. A fake window is not a window replacement, but would make them nicer places to sit for small amounts of time.
It's not even especially "cherry picked". If you compare accidents in vehicles driven on "autopilot" versus every other vehicle, you'll see that they have far fewer accidents per mile.

However, that's not a fair comparison.

Tesla's "autopilot" only works on clear motorways with nothing "exciting" going on. It can't cope with sudden changes in conditions very well, and hands over to the human driver. It can't cope with two-lane roads with cars coming at it at all, never mind single-track country roads.

So, if you compare Tesla "autopilot" with cars driven in the same conditions as when "autopilot" is in use, you see that they're no safer or just a little bit worse.

TL;DR Tesla "autopilot" only works in conditions where cars don't crash anyway, but they are compared against cars driven in all possible conditions.

> I read and re-read his reply. To me, it looked devoid of any substance. What was the tiniest amount of time period you had to visit your teammate to qualify as a team player?

Here is the thing, in workplace I am in now, you would suffer and not fit. It is very agile scrum-like. You dont get larger task to start-finish like op described as what he likes. Instead, task is split between multiple people and there are constant overlaps. You dont fix own bugs in own code, someone else does it while you fix third person bugs. There is nothing you "own", ever.

> and emerge victorious having nailed the problem, and/or designed the kickass solution. That victorious outcome takes months, sometimes years, yes.

There is no such aspect in agile teams. It is frustrating even for people who are significantly more "team like" then you sounds like.
Yes. but we have to actively try and heal these wounds.

We cannot let another generation restart an active war. We've had 25 years without an active bombing or driveby shooting campaign. almost an entire generation has grown up with their male relatives still being alive.

we cannot allow that cycle to be triggered again, its just not worth it.

But it doesn't solve the problem of using something sized for four people carrying one person.
> If you want to write C# just write go

I don't get this. If you want to write C#, write C#. If you want to write Go, just write Go.

Go is a great language because of its simplicity and ecosystem, has lots of useful things in the standard library, has pretty good runtime performance and also compiles to static executables easily (which is especially useful for projects like Nomad). It's both a good fit for web development, as well as writing smaller or larger utilities. Honestly, its packaging situation is leaps and bounds ahead of something like Python, so I predict great future for it in DevOps too.

C# is a more advanced language with a rich history and a lot of the functionality for web development in particular coming as first party packages. Some of that historical baggage weighs it down and the complexity can be annoying, but ASP.NET Core, EF Core, Kestrel and many other components are great. Plus, running on *nix is good, even though the single executable/runtime/deployment situation isn't quite as easy as with Go.

Write code in whatever technologies work for you. My caveat to add would be that I'd (almost) always develop front end and back end separately, since the React/Angular/Vue webapp really shouldn't care much about what technologies are behind the APIs. Of course, being able to use a single language for both FE and BE development is also a worthwhile approach!
Familiar to a greater or lesser degree with most, but not all of those. I'd take exception to a couple inclusions.

- Undecided w/Matt Ferrel

This one is probably the most questionable. I was always a bit leery due to the titles being a bit too accepting of anything you might find on r/Futurology, and then happened on a Thunderf00t Busted (not a regular viewer there either) about some of his videos and yeah. I think it's safe to say he's not doing much of a critical evaluation of anything as he is just reading whatever cool sounding press releases he finds. I'm usually fairly allergic to more absolute statements (part of the reason I'm not such a regular viewer of Thunderf00t's), but even with the limited amount I've seen I'm pretty confident in writing off Undecided w/Matt Ferrel. At the very least, it deserves the same kind of credibility as anything you might find on r/Futurology.

- Veritasium

Yeah, I know. But his repeated issues with basically doing ad-spots as videos, and his lack of acknowledging the issue, really soured me on him. If I'm learning about something through somebody like Veritasium, it's not a topic I'm well versed in to begin with and it's unlikely that I'm going to pursue it all that much further independently. That sort of format is also particularly prone to causing me to drop my more rigorous filters. All of that means credibility is particularly important there, and Veritasium completely lost my trust that he wouldn't try to slip advertising by me while pretending it's relatively unbiased information that's been checked in good faith.

Even before that, he seemed to me to tend a little too far towards fully selling high school style explanations, without making it clear that that's what he's doing. By high school style explanations, I mean those that are nearly outright lies, serve to help students work their way to the point that they can make use of the next more nuanced and complex explanation which is closer to the truth.

There's nothing inherently wrong with using those sorts of explanations, but when addressing such a wide audience with no expectation that they will be looking deeper later, I think it's very important to be clear about the limitations of the information provided. With Derek, you get exactly as much nuance as he thinks makes for a good story, and he does his best to leave you with the impression that's all there is.
One of the larger super market chains here have a phone app, which allows you to scan your items as you walk through the store. When you leave, you just scan a big QR code at checkout and that will charge the card stored in the app.

It's a really quick way of doing checkouts, i.e. you pretty much just walk out, unless you bought alcohol, in which case you'll need to wait for someone to check that you're 18.

My main issue with it is that it makes shopping terribly slow and mentally stressful. The whole process of scanning items as you pick them up is less convenient that you'd think. Some items, like vegetables don't have barcode... now what? I found myself constantly checking that I've scanned everything and focused more on the app than anything else. It's a great way to ensure that people only get what's on their shopping list.

Except for the fast checkout, which is really nice, I can't recommend it.
I know I'm coming across ad a blazor fanboy, but I'm curious what made you feel like server side was an afterthought?

The biggest way server side fucked us was originally db contexts are bound to scope via IOC in asp.net similar to MVC or razor pages.

Which is fine when your scope is a single request, but when the scope is a circuit you get so many weird fucking errors. We worked around this by disabling tracking. But the right fix is we should have used factories, but we didn't figure this out until it was too late and we had written a fuck ton of code.

This is such an obvious issue and should have been in the docs but wasn't.

But other than that it seemed fined.

This is nothing like VS, though I suppose one could be forgiven for thinking otherwise due to Microsoft’s complete inability to pick anything other than the most confusing name possible for any given product.

Right I want to know what the construction step is in this case, but that makes sense that there's multiple approaches.
It requires a mental switch in focus. For me anyway, it's not a big difference if it's between working on implementing feature A then switching to working on implementing feature B, and working on feature A then switching to doing a code review for feature B, but I probably take my code reviewing responsibilities more seriously than most (e.g. I always checkout the branch locally, ensure it builds and runs etc.).
It should be supplying closer to the full 1500W in heat, since any light it emits will just get converted to heat when it is absorbed.
Because Rayleigh scattering is hard (and the demand isn't there).
Slight tangent, but have you considered using these new generative models like Dall E 2[1]? So far my experience has been that they generate great oil paintings. Maybe there could also be an automated pipeline that generates oil painting covers using book titles or first sentences.

Nuclear capacity curtailed due to a heat wave? That's a failure mode I'd not heard of.

It isn't that bad. The area that is without sun for weeks is pretty small and there aren't many people living there, so trying to build a company to catch that market is suspicious at best.

For rest of the country the main concern is the shorter days - meaning you can easily go to work before sun comes up and leave work just as sun is going down. But during working hours there is plenty of light even if the day is cloudy since snow is very reflective.

I see the main problem with the designs OP posted that they are just LED panels mounted on a wall. You don't get the same feeling of being in the sun when the light is not directional. You might as well just have one of the "bright light lamps" on your desk that have been sold for decades to combat "sunlessness".

The real fun starts after things are set up, as you start wrestling with deliverability issues, trying to get recipients to mark your mails as not spam, trying to avoid recipients to mark properly delivered mails as spam, while simultaneously making sure you prevent your systems from sending spam through hijacked accounts and loopholes.

Just like creating any sort of archive. You (or a program of sorts) create the fs structure in some directory, then invoke something like `mkdwarfs -i /path/to/that/directory -o /path/to/output/file.dfs`
I mean there are people who know totally normal russian and ukranian citizens like you and I and no government is entitled to put is in a war and after that choose who we can do business with. Russia, Ukraine or whatever country is not a block of people you must be against. It is formed by each of its individuals. If you do not want to do business with them bc you consider it harmful, that is ok. But you cannot force everyone else under your vision. Why should you? With which right you go to make pressure to private business that are just selling clothes or milk-derived products?

To me it makes no sense, honestly.
In other words, there will be no commercial design, ever.
