So use C++ already; that’s what it’s for. Don’t go complaining that C++ is “too complicated” and then be hauling its complexity into C, because all you’ll end up with is a bloated …

“I can't believe the C standards committee is entertaining this.” Hey, standards committee’s gotta eat. 'defer'? I occasionaly use it in Swift to clean up resources; s’okay there, …

Only -3 you pikers? Alt-right tears are the milk in which I bathe.

Quite right: Apple is entitled to make (and not make) whatever products it chooses. Could’ve made a great, and timely, horrible-warts-n-all show about freedom of speech and those w…

“In Thiel's case, it outed a gay man that didn't want to come out.” There’s a fair argument that Thiel’s enthusiastic financial support of homophobic bigots made his own hypocrisy …

I didn’t go into Shortcuts as it has its own set of flaws: poor granularity, poor composability, excessively complex and expensive to extend. And it’s still not quite clear how App…

The burden of proof rests on the claimant. There’s a reason US courts of law keep throwing out these claims of widespread fraud: because the claimants consistently fail to provide …

“this is the language that powers Cloud Firestore / Cloud Storage security rules” This really needs to be stated on its front page. Right now it’s all “Hows” and no “Why”. First qu…

File under: #WhyNotBoth? Yes, the confiscation in itself is an attack on free speech rights. But don’t think the high-stress weapons-drawn raid against a prominent whistleblower is…

Please name a vaccine that is injected into your bloodstream.

“I think the next leap forward in programming is going to offend the sensibilities of current programmers.” Honestly, programmers have been railing against progress ever since the …

“but the reality is worse: we have not seen a 10x boost due to all developments combined and in over 30 years” [citation]?

“In my experience developers are very rational beings.” Yeah, no. Stopped there. Vanity is rationalizing the belief that you’re any better at being rational than the rest of us inc…

So I should’ve phrased it as “You clearly didn’t read the article” then? Considering OP was transparently skating on the edge of Islamophobia, I think I was being kind.
