    I got a c3 pro a few weeks ago and you definitely can turn the lighting off. Don't remember whether it was through cycling or some other combo but you can. Did you look at the manu…

    It doesn't matter whether the model assumes bits, pulleys, elves or whatever, as long as it does a better job at describing physical reality than whatever exists at the time anyway…

    Can't these features be toggled?

    I use Notepad from time to time for quick notes and I have noticed exactly zero friction added to this "workflow". Not sure what you are talking about.

    Not having an extra language to deal with and so many features being just a flag away is why I decided to go with QtWidgets for the GUI of a project I am working on at work. And it…

    I thought that if you have some idea about how hardware works, it is kind of more or less obvious whether something is synthesizable or not.

    Exactly... Nothing can stop the masses. Plus, we have laws that can change and adapt.

    Imagine the kind of garbage that some people consider "robust, working code"...

    For me, being able to visualize 4D would imply that I can picture four mutually perpendicular axes, something which I find completely impossible for me to do. And I thought it is i…

    You have a really sad view on what constitutes a waste of time.

    I suspected it would be some feature of this moronic joke of a language and it seems I was right.

    Thanks. Maybe I should have stressed this more, but what I had in mind was a more mainstream language suitable for everyday programming too. All the languages mentioned in this thr…

    Whenever I think about better programming tools, I immediately think about better operating systems. That's what we ultimately need.

    Functions map members of a set A to members of a set B. These can simply be Cartesian products whose members are tuples. In my dream PL syntax a function call would be a function n…
