But when all the features of the language fit in your head, it usually means the code you're reading keep repeating itself lacking more convenient features (yes Go, I'm talking about your error handling).

The needs of our programs are complex, so in the end this complexity has to be somewhere, and it is either in the language itself, or in our code…
I'm not an expert by any stretch, but it probably varies greatly by drug. I know a lot of people who have done LSD, shrooms or MDMA. Those aren't even all physically addictive and are more like experience drugs. Probably totally different for heroin or meth.

At very least, it makes sense to regulate it more in line with other drugs that have significant effects on GABAA receptors, like barbiturates and benzodiazepines. Not only does alcohol cause physical dependence, like other GABAA targeting drugs, chronic use lowers the seizure threshold making them physically dangerous to discontinue without tapering or medication.

>At some level, people don’t want to pay for all the services they use.

Maybe you didn't read the whole thread, but that's what I'm referencing.

Reddit users did pay for using the site, and now they're choosing to not use it. They are not choosing to use it and not pay.
That strikes me as the classic manager schedule vs maker schedule with different words
You're right; but I meant that in a colloquial manner. What I'm saying is services like these that are becoming as indispensable as utilities should have a system in place for lodging complaints and disputes and mechanisms to resolve them. The city cannot cut my water just because I yell epithets at the mayor, whether they agree or disagree. Now, sure, this is more of a civil matter but due to the importance of the services, they should have proper mechanisms in place for these kinds of things, otherwise, it's he said, she said and both customers and employees can willy nilly accuse each other of transgressions and have services suspended or employment terminated, etc., unfairly and without evidence in many cases.
A lot of conspiracy talk here, backed up with nothing other than a note that the AI chat API isn't public yet.

I'd argue that MS has been on a very different trajectory since the "Linux is a cancer" Ballmer days, and open source is a big part of that movement. I never thought I'd see them buy and open source Xamarin, or open source the entire C# compiler and .NET Framework. It's worked well for them - .NET is being actively developed by many volunteers as well as the core MS team, and performance has improved significantly in the last few years. There are a lot of associated technologies being developed in the open, too, like Terminal, the C# language itself and so on. I find it difficult to think that this was all a grand plan to extract more revenue out of devs. Rather, I think MS realised that it was instead a "rising tide lifts all boats" situation, whereby bringing more devs into the fold - including those on Linux and Mac - would be mutually beneficial. Let's not forget, Visual Studio Community Edition wasn't around until relatively recently. The only legal way to get Visual Studio was to fork out for a Pro or Enterprise licence.

As for AI integration into VS Code, I share kaelini's opinion that the chat feature is still new and possibly very alpha (it's certainly not very fast at the moment), so that's probably why it's not all been open sourced. But, of course, MS is perfectly within their rights to release closed-source extensions to the VS Code marketplace - the new C# Dev Kit is a case in point here.
Last time I bought a car, I called around until I found a good deal then I went there and talked to them to get the actual number. Then I called the other dealers I'd spoken with and asked if they could beat that deal. I spent 8 hours going back and forth, but got my car for 20% off MSRP. I couldn't have done that if I'd been dealing directly with Ford.
Dealership owners are a reliable Republican constituency. This kind of local bigwig was one of the most reliable Trump supporters and I'd guess the same is true for DeSantis. I mean you decide if that's a "good" reason but it is the real one.
Sound insulation in older homes is much better than in new. Thicker and heavier materials are much better at absorbing or reflecting sound, especially low frequency. Fire resistance seems to be a wash. I've seen the aftermath of new and old construction. We don't seem to have made improvements in this regard, but we have made the likelihood of them starting lower in all kinds of construction.

The opposing argument for much of their down-sides is the up-front cost of building a new home has it's own environmental and financial costs. Much of the down-sides to older homes can be retrofitted for substantially less cost and impact than a new home.

We could get the best of both worlds by designing homes for upgrades with large conduits for wirings, easier access to walls and attics, etc.

I can't say that I agree with Musk on much, but the DMCA is a plague on humanity. Especially with systems like YouTube's, which auto flags copyrighted content in videos with no consideration for if that content falls under fair use. The DMCA desperately needs revision, and I doubt we're ever going to see it, because anyone advocating for it is going to be portrayed as hating creators rather than hating badly written laws.

In the ISP world, copyright complaints are even more of a nightmare than social media, I feel like. Corporations will demand that the piracy is stopped, and there's no way to do that without strict monitoring and blocking of user traffic. Which is extremely intrusive from an ISP perspective, and goes against what you're supposed to be providing. At least with social media, the user is voluntarily making that activity publicly visible.

Sorry but your source is bad - no details whatsoever about which storage solution they are aiming for. Regardless, we know for a fact that not a single country has storage capabilities for even 1% of their energy needs. Lots of initiatives want to change that, such as the one you posted, but there is absolutely no large scale solution for this issue at all. Once you accept that fact, you realize renewables are not a replacement for nuclear at this point.
In the Hacker News bubble, it might be natural to think LSD, shrooms, MDMA, ketamine, etc. are very common drugs, but they have nothing on cocaine, opioids, methamphetamine, etc. - especially in North America, but also globally.

The vast majority of people who use drugs use the latter ones and a large amount of that use is by addicts.

Which can be trivially ruled out, because then the spread would have been all up and down the rail line. The first infection point would have been on the train, among all those people getting off at all different stops. It would not have suddenly become infectious just as that person stepped off the train.

The evidence for zoonotic origin is how people regularly found or contracted SARS-like coronaviruses from animals. The evidence there was any relevant research at that university is zero. It's not a government lab, those projects would have been public.
Why not just try to make multiprocessing easier?
That's a particularly weird one in light of starting out with "I only use statically typed languages", because it's basically trivial in a statically typed language. You have "type UIData", "type StorageData", and functions/methods to convert back and forth between them. Those functions/methods may need additional parameters, which will be documented by the mere act of calling for them in the function signature. You take the right type in the right place and the language does the rest, basically. Statically-typed languages are so good at this that even refactoring it after the fact is trivial; potentially tedious and lengthy, but generally trivial. You just create the new type you need, put it in one place in the code where it belongs, then start compiling the code and fixing the errors it flags. Repeat until you've converted all uses of the old type to the new type or performed the correct conversion. It'll probably just work the next time you run it. You don't anything even remotely as strong as Haskell to have an "It Just Works when I compile it" moment.

In dynamically-typed languages this is a nightmare, and this is one of the significant reasons I've stopped using them. Finding a bug six months to six years later from some attempt at this and finding a place that used the old type incorrectly when it was getting the new type, or because the programmer thought they were getting one but in fact got the other, or my favorite, the code is actually called with both types and nobody noticed until way too late... it's just something I've had enough of.

> Beauty is a useless concept in a programing language.

Maybe not aesthetic beauty, but readability in many contexts matters more than performance. Code that isn't readable hides bugs and can't be maintained (FYI Rust doesn't stop you from writing bugs into your code). A language like C or Go where you can fit most of the syntax and mechanisms into your head are simply easier to read and reason about than a language where you need a PhD in type theory to understand one signature.

> If it is not memory safe, does not support static typing with algebraic data types, and does not have null safety it does not meet those minimum requirements and is not suitable for use.

You'd better stop interacting with technology then, because the vast majority of it is still running something compiled from C. We're talking about control systems, life saving technology, technology that's running in outer space.
To understand the past, read more primary historical sources, such as some magazines.

“For C…, there really is only one prevailing idiom on how to write code”

You can look at single projects that have changed the way they write C code over time, introducing new idioms all the time. OpenSSL is a perfect example of that in regards to their work to reduce memory related bugs. C’s idioms have changed so many times over it’s life it’s hard to keep track or even read it from one era to the next.
> Using a car at all is giving up control to cops.

It's not like you're in any more control vs. cops without a car at your disposal, it's just a tool. But you bet your ass the more automated cars become, the more options cops (and the state in general) will have to remotely take control of their operation.

But cops can just as effectively be a problem for pedestrians, cyclists, riders of public transportation... Some of my worst police interactions have been on public transportation. They seem particularly keyed up and predisposed to assume you're poverty scum committing a crime in that context IME (BART police).

In case anyone's interested, I'm using OpenAI's 3.5 model for the Webbu language mentor and seeding it with instructions to answer as a language mentor and also to output whether it thinks the question is about German or not.

Typical American management --- overly focused on marketing games.

It's no secret that Intel is getting their ass kicked in the marketplace. So what is their solution? Instead of building better products, they decide to scramble the naming so consumers are no longer sure of what they are actually buying.

Thanks Intel --- you just made my buying decision much easier --- AMD Inside just moved to the top of my preference list.
That's probably a side effect of the borrow checker and its lifetimes being the interesting new thing which is mostly unique to Rust. The counted references Rc<> and Arc<> are boring, they exist in plenty of other languages (for instance, std::shared_ptr in C++). It's the same thing with Haskell and monads: every Haskell guide is going to focus on monads.
Absolutely true, but you still need a plan for protecting the water lines. You need some kind of underground insulated structure below the frost line that can handle direct dirt contact. Annoyingly concrete remains the best option.
These dealer protection laws made sense decades ago, they no longer make sense, but dealers bribe our politicians to protect them. That is all it is.
Are you a professional scientist with experience in this area or not?
Yeah, this would be the way. This hypothetical restaurant would probably only need the following pages:

- Home page
- About Us
- Menu
- [Maybe 1 or 2 info pages]
- A contact page (with or without a form)

That's something that can be easily done with static HTML and CSS, and hosted on just about any random shared hosting service you can imagine. Assuming it doesn't become a major viral hit, it'd probably use a couple of megabytes of space on the hard drive and under a hundred megs of bandwidth.

Maybe up that number a tiny bit if Bob decides he wants to run a blog on the domain and you decide to just do the whole thing in WordPress or Drupal or whatever else.

Either way, a site that small could be built like its 1980 and it'd be perfectly fine.

It’s also widely understood how to dose and consume it — the commonality of it makes it less dangerous on a micro level. And also much harder to convince people to ban it when the majority of people consume it.

Alcohol has existed and been consumed since before humans existed. It’s also trivially easy to produce alcohol yourself, naturally manifesting out of a sugary liquid, meaning that prohibition is ~impossible.

If you mean just from an effects standpoint than yeah alcohol is absolutely top tier dangerous. But unfortunately/luckily, society operates on more than just statistics. And trying to take the human emotion element out of decisions is hopeless.
I feel that on a national level, politics is almost entirely captured by stunts and not by actual policy. So it doesn’t matter if his policies are corrupt, he’s owning the libs.

Can you point me to a country that can store even 1% of their energy needs currently? If not, you're talking about unproven technologies that may or may not fix this problem. I hope they do, but until then we are in a world where closing a nuclear plant means opening up a carbon-intensive one. Renewables are not currently a replacement for nuclear, and this is not a misconception, it is a fact.
It would work if AMD focused on ROCm support for their consumer GPUs. The reason for that is quite simple. Angry consumers using your GPUs produces a lot of data that helps you design future GPUs and improve the drivers.
Isn't that welfare state with extra steps? Why don't you just increase taxes and deposit it into the dealership bank accounts? At least you will skip dealing with dealerships if you don't want to?

People are reporting that if you bring a bunch of substances they only at best check 1 if you are one of the first and that there's an absurd limit of only 12-40 (I believe) total samples checked per week across all users for Berlin which is nearly nothing.

I hope this gets expanded, and the inability to check drugs or to get e.g. naxolone in Germany is absurd, but as far as I can tell this might be so far just for P.R.
IME, these people just haven't put as much effort into it as they've put into their custom VIM/emacs configs. There might also be a sunk cost fallacy aspect to it as well

But there's nothing in VIM that I'm not able to do in VSCode. Especially when you realize you can very very easily bind VSCode commands to keys in VIM. It starts to feel like a superpower.

That's the issue. Florida's effective tax rate is about equal to Georgia which has a ~5.5% income tax. And it's going to continue to increase with homeowner's insurance prices even outside of the Miami metro area skyrocketing (which you pay for even if you rent, in terms of rent increases owners enact to cover costs).
Oh, I agree. But the result is that I often see people say "don't use Rust for general purpose programming, it's too complicated" and in my experience it's actually a great general purpose programming language. You just have to reach for the tools given to you rather than push through the hard way.

You picked an egregious example to make it seem frivolous and impossible. But what about in the more mundane situation where someone is making a case that many people do agree with? A little genocide of an unpopular minority group maybe. Their desired outcome may not be guaranteed but it is certainly possible, and spread of propaganda media can be an important prerequisite for its success. We don't have to respect an opinion to oppose it.
