    Yeah, give me a second, singularity exists.

    Here to verify, there's a fair bit of software where the state of the art is in Rust. How it happened so quick is a little surprising, but here we are.

    Quick to repair is also a lot more versatile. Unfortunately, I had to work in a lot of environments with proprietary, vendor-locked software and hardware. Usually all you can do is…

    The answer is yes, now quit guessing so accurately

    You don't think I'm qualified? Why? Because what I said made you feel bad for some reason? Well jackass, you're definitely not qualified, keep reading. Or maybe don't, because what…

    The first step of consistency is determining and agreeing on what you want the computer to do. I don't see this happening, and it kind of removes the point of having multiple DEs, …

    If the work is repetitive I'm not sure you can say it was good experience. Your time would have been better spent learning or creating, I assume. No reason to want your children to…

    This is how it's supposed to work in the US.

    You're right however what he is saying I suspect is more about the perception of leading as opposed to actually leading.

    I don't think it's objective badness but more the perceived and probably real lack of social mobility.

    That's unfair to the cat. I trained mine (possibly halfway by accident) to fake bite hands. They tend to run away if they don't know you still, but if it's someone they know they c…

    There are plenty of areas with too much red tape.

    This is true only for some designs. It's possible you could have a power island that doesn't get discharged and also has no connection to any buttons when the board is nominally of…

    I've thought about this a fair bit and despite my initial conclusions I am no longer certain that the two alphabet styles are similar. It seems to me that ideagraphic systems have …

    Seems plausible base on my experiences outdoors, but it heavily depends on ambient conditions. Over such large distances I think the unlikely part is you do that trick twice, but e…

    The lack of homework, I think. It's not a natural thing to do. Apart from an explicitly pedagogical environment I have found the best thing to suggest people is to try to work thei…

    Well. The expenditure is a form of risk. Having a lot of cash outflow is something they want to prevent. So yes and no I think.

    Nah. You can definitely blame them. As a vendor you should be able to put some kind of error bars on the potential savings. If they then refuse because they think your cut will be …

    It's not more cost-effective for the client if the work just never happens. Further, I don't care what is more cost effective to them. I want to capture some of that value. That's …

    Hm, I've actually thought about that a lot. I'd probably keep the bytestream format. It is insanely useful. However I might open up multiple streams. Stream one is basic IO. Stream…
