It could be a nice article if it wasn't full of mistakes and incorrect assumptions about mechanisms and their origins, unsubstantiated statements, and so forth. Right now, it sound…

One could argue flying is just controlled falling.

Yes, you are correct. It was meant as "end user OSs", and indeed some requirements are on the end user OS. However, it is still not the same as California's law since it only descr…

Sidesteps by not providing the same level of functionality. As an analogy, it would be equivalent to say that "contrary to an airplane, a car sidesteps the problem of requiring win…

It would have taken the same time, if not less, given the extra time for mitigations, trying different optimization techniques, runtimes, etc. One of the reasons the project was ki…

My experience is the exact opposite. This was particularly true for one of the projects I've worked with in the past, where Python was chosen as the main language for a monitoring …

From the pull request: > Stores the user's birth date for age verification, as required by recent laws in California (AB-1043), Colorado (SB26-051), Brazil (Lei 15.211/2025), etc. …

> Rust (...) has the most toxic self-righteous community in PL. You never dealt with C programmers, did you?

It is not - and given its stance on memory safety, it will hardly ever be.

I believe any reasonable person could understand the previous comment is about the rules themselves, not about a statement in the CoC saying where they apply or not. Also, the fact…

You are dressing the events in your interpretation and stating them as truth. The events you mention above are cherry-picked bits of information to support what you have said from …

I used OCaml extensively for a few years, around the time of OCaml 3 and OCaml 4, and I can add a few cents to this discussion. Some of the points listed here can be considered a m…

> That's not what you said. You said "certain groups" are trying to undermine the non-existent impartiality of the supreme court. I said they were trying to "stamp political motiva…

The the link above does not survive 15 seconds of a Google search for its first statement: https://www.stf.jus.br/arquivo/cms/noticiaNoticiaStf/anexo/D... It names the FEDERAL PUBL…

This wasn't clear for me from the question, though I understand where you are coming from. Investing is certainly not as risky as people from outside of Brazil generally think it i…

Kind of an odd conclusion to take from a weird question. I would not subject myself or my property to a foreign court system for various reasons, but first and foremost because I'm…

Not the person you are responding to, but just as an FYI: in Brazil right now there are certain groups attempting to stamp political motivation on the decisions of the upper judici…

It's ludicrous to read the article and notice how hard they are trying not to blame the victim, as if a child going through bullying and seeing that nobody around them cares to act…

As I said, I have no intention of starting an argument. I would just like to point out a few issues: A) I deliberately focused on the language itself in my claims. The functions I …

I feel like answering this comment could start a possible argument, which I have no interest in doing. I do, however, want to point that anyone interested in comparing language des…

Keep in mind this is PHP. There are tons of languages and frameworks made by developers who know what they are doing that do not treat everything blindly like strings. For SQL in p…
