Yeah, and where exactly are those libraries? Are they in safe places that won't be obliterated if a war breaks out? I don't think so; they're mostly in the most likely to be targeted locations.

If humans were serious about protecting knowledge, they'd put these libraries on Svalbard or in Antarctica, or better yet in a lava tube on the Moon.
Is that even feasible? How exactly would firefighters defend towns from large wildfires. They can't cut an effective fire break around an entire town.
> Therefore Go is not a memory safe language.

Interesting.

To quote the NSA [1], "Some examples of memory safe languages are Python, Java, C#, Go, Delphi/Object Pascal, Swift, Ruby, Rust, and Ada. Memory safe languages provide differing degrees of memory usage protections, so available code hardening defenses, such as compiler options, tool analysis, and operating system configurations, should be used for their protections as well."

The narrow definition of memory safety here is:

Go has garbage collection, so you won't have memory leaks or use-after-free.

Go is powerful enough that beginners can cause segfaults by accidentally abusing internals, okay.

I'm not sure this is a very redeeming property of Go: Being able to crash the GC, without the flexibility of manual memory management.

But I'm not sure I'd categorize it as "not memory safe" for the same reason C/C++ aren't (a trade-off).

Because I don't believe that you can generally leverage this for the kinds of memory exploits made in C/C++.

I recall that some ML dialects (Standard ML and OCaml) have a library function Obj.magic : 'a -> 'b which escapes the type system. Using this can easily cause segfaults. Does that mean Standard ML and OCaml are not memory safe? Generally, no, they're extremely safe if you avoid that feature, which is most likely. This is arguably less safe than Go, since you most likely won't accidentally run that function.

Really the only other app with a serious enough use is Scruff. By nearly every metric it is a better app and does some really good things. But even being on both and basically bouncing between the 2 most of my conversations end up on Grindr.

There is another web app that has gained serious traction for offering a… unique value proposition but I am purposefully not going to name it here so someone doesn’t look it up and see something they don’t want to see. (I will just say there is a reason it’s a web app instead of an actual app)
> Pretty much any production compiler can do this.

I'm curious how a compiler could know this at compile time? If you mean a runtime checking feature, I get it. I'm referring to an example statement like `ix = ia + ib` where all three are, say, u8 integers.

EDIT: I will agree in some situations, the compiler could deduce that a certain equation like above would or would not ever overflow, by context. But for the general case, I don't see how.

In one of those cases I was the bad manager. The data was a wakeup call that made me understand the magnitude of the problem.

In another case, I knew the manager well, having been on his team before. He was effective, empathetic, and inspirational. He was also overworked and perhaps a bit naively assumed good intent from everyone. The data let me explain to him that the coworker was not contributing and he had a real problem.
No who's saying it is?
Mark, according to tradition was a student of St. Paul, and he personally met St. Peter. Matthew was a Jesus disciple himself. Luke was also a friend of St. Paul, and possibly met St. Peter as well.

So, for me the simplest explanation is that Mark had to write his gospel on his own, because he was first, but Matthew and Luke could both use previous works as a source, so they do not have to start from scratch, but still they both did have enough of their own stories to add.

So, in the end "the Q source" isn't any written source it is just what they both remembered from their conversations with Peter and Paul (or, in Matthew's case, even with the Jesus himself).

> From an external point of view it feels almost ANY US welfare program (starting with education or healthcare for everybody) is terrible compared to the counterpart of Europe ones for example so that's not a good argument for uncontrolled immigration in the US.

If you're comparing welfare programs based on cost of the program to the financial benefits to the average person, I'd totally agree. It seems like European programs are generally much better at this than the US.

> Then, you'll also see that people is Europe are slowly realizing exactly what I said about some cultures that cannot mix, so maybe the quality of welfare programs have nothing to do with it ?

Well this gets to the underlying point, immigration and welfare programs are fundamentally at odds. It sounds like you'd prioritize welfare and accept tradeoffs that limit immigration. I just have the opposite priority, I don't believe its my right to tell someone else they can't live here and accept that means welfare programs can't work.
9 is not a couple, unless you're in a very open relationship - which English words might be - but a language stops being phonetic at the point that the mappings between symbols and sounds are no longer clear and reliable. The most phonetic languages have one-to-one mappings with very few exceptions e.g. Japanese, Spanish, Italian, Finnish.

English, on the other hand, has silent letters, inconsistent mappings even within the same word, exceptions, irregularities, and sounds that are represented by multiple letters and spellings.

English is not a phonetic language except in the sense that it does have mappings between sounds and characters, which would make sense if one were to compare it to a wholly written language like Python, but not any human language.

In a two-party race like this, I'd argue she kinda doesn't have to. People know Donald Trump as "the oil president", simply marketing yourself as the alternative is all she has to do when her opponent's reputation precedes himself.

Normally I'd agree, and overall I resent how American policy promotion on both sides of the aisle has turned into virtue signalling. This is a good example of taking advantage in an adversaries blind-spot though - climate change is a real concern, and certain candidates can't even acknowledge that with a straight face.

Thanks - I did not actually consider that interpretation!
Every single place that I've worked at that's introduced any sort of goal based metrics has immediately become, in real terms, unproductive and unsatisfying organizations. As soon as you have a metric, even self-defined, that you will be graded on you optimize for it as the ol' Law dictates.

As soon as that happened support of existing services crumbles. Innovation tanks because risk means you might miss the target. It means the best engineers no longer mentor or build team based expertise. It means everyone becomes solos to hit their number or target and everything else falls away.

I'm sympathetic toward the want to measure employee quality but by doing that you tend to only punish the underperforming engineers, regardless of reasons, rather than rewarding the best engineers or an increase in quality of engineering. It creates hostility when one person's metric may be impacted by another person or org within the company. It sabotages everything the powers that be claim to care about.

Giving money to a person, by itself, doesn’t raise the same sort of immediate quality of life concerns (“quiet enjoyment”) as having someone shout through a megaphone into your ear.

Also, core political speech (and its financing, subject to concerns over corruption) such as electoral or issue advocacy is considered sacrosanct by the American legal system and so government prohibitions on it will receive significantly stricter scrutiny.
As far as I'm concerned, it isn't my right to tell someone else that they can't live here. If someone wants to come to the US to try to make a better life for themselves, I wish them the best of luck and hope they succeed. I don't think its anyone's right to claim the right to decide who is worthy of getting a chance here.

When it comes to crime, its not that we already have crime so don't bother. We have to deal with crime either way, and the potential benefit of closing borders isn't worth stepping on what I consider a fundamental right. We also haven't answered how to know who will commit a crime if they come here, unless we have precogs hidden away in a pool somewhere.

Right, but due to pretty obvious references earlier than then we can assume they were written earlier. We don't really have great information on authorship or the exact forms the texts took...but it's largely agreed upon that there were books about Jesus floating around (we don't necessarily know the content) well before AD 170 (throw in some wiggle room years past Jesus death for stuff to settle down and spread, and subtract some years for the spread from the earliest references, and you wind up within the range most scholars would date the authorship).

That may have been what you were trying to say and I just misunderstood. I think I may have just misunderstood what you meant by the 170 AD date.

> Linux never got anywhere with the standard distros because they're all so different.

This is eliding the difference in what you want to be standardized.

Take system logging for example. You definitely want some standard interface to do it so all the different daemons and things can implement it once regardless of which system logger the distribution is using. But once it passes that data to the other program, it's under a different dominion of control which should operate as a black box with respect to the program generating the data and the rest of the system.

Because that's how you prevent ossification -- which is engineering. You want to make it so the other component can be improved or substituted. One system logger is designed to store the logs on a central server instead of the local machine, another supports modules so other people can easily write log-parsing scripts. And when you come up with a new idea for a third, you don't have to be on the systemd team to publish an independent implementation that other people can use as a drop-in replacement, instead of (not in addition to) the default one, without requiring it to be separately integrated with a dozen moving targets in the systemd repository.

What you're trying to do is to allow this:

> In the same vein, don't be creative with bolt sizes. Be creative with what those bolts allow you to achieve. Be creative at a higher level.

You want to standardize the bolt sizes, i.e. the interfaces between components. What you explicitly don't want is to replace bolts with having everything epoxied together.

But that's what happens when you e.g. integrate the logging system with the service manager, which is the sort of thing people are complaining about.
The gender pay gap disappears when you control for hours worked, job seniority, and experience.

So, why do women work less hours than men and have less experience? That's still an issue even if it's not directly sexist. If we read some bullet points from your post:

Quite the hyperbole, but I do agree that python isn't so wrong of a choice, but the problem is diagrams eventually interact with non-technical people and that's where it gets tricky.

I LOVE mermaid, d2, but at somepoint I hand the diagrams off to someone who knows nothing about markdown and honestly they shouldn't have to know it to interact with a diagram.

All these "diagrams as code" are great for an isolated group. I can pump them out WAY faster than manual drawing programs (draw.io, etc), but then run into the iterop wall w/ other teams.

I'd LOVE a place that could be like AWS's graphical editor that sort of goes in between the two. It's a hard problem I 100% agree and would require yet another DSL, ugh.

Sure, but so does the word "unbearable." If your workplace is unbearable, you will probably need to leave sooner or later - either because you found a way out or because you burned out. Whatever GGP did might've saved their hide, but it probably didn't result in a "bearable" level of stress (indeed, they said it was "wrong", so it probably gnawed at them). Stress has a way of diminishing your capacity when you need it most. Better to act sooner than later.
