> But statically typed complied languages do not provide an inherently better programming paradigm than dynamic programming. For any large long lived project with multiple contribu…

The Russians knew of this rule, so I doubt they are surprised. If the new owners are approved they will get control back.

Did you even read the article? > Germany's economy minister announced the seizure in a statement on Monday. The move came after the ministry of economic affairs learned that Gazpro…

It's a very simple example and knowing that addition is commutative, it's obvious that there is no ordering.

I usually go about it differently than hold off coding. I do try to understand the problem fully before I implement anything. I try to figure out what abstractions make the most se…

That would be infeasible for cold storage.

Which is a very good way to cut down the money spend on things.

You only need to state to what extend and period the information is stored in backups, and have a process in place to purge it again in case of a restore.

I agree, either compare at the same size or the same perceptual quality. I know the latter is subjective, but in this case the JPEG is significantly higher quality.

I will absolute do what I can to grow employees. But they have to want to do that. Not all employees want to climb the ladder. They do not want to become a manager, they do not wan…

Chemistry is complex enough that layman cannot make any assumptions. For all we know stainless steel and carbon steel have higher content than the cast iron, but leach less because…

I like growing employees, but I'd be lying if it said I didn't put immense value on the great employees that are content where they are with what they're doing. They're dependable …

Apart from invoking it in writing, I think such manoeuvres go through a lawyer, which a court will usually accept them as stating the truth about when an offer was send and receive…

That assumes that the founders have enough intimate knowledge of the other founders personal financial situation. They clearly risk becoming a victim of it them if the other founde…

I've seen a few pair of founders with great success have an agreement that one could at any point for any reason, decide to buy out the other party. Catch is that if you invoke tha…

I think you missed my point. Attackers will go through commits regardless of a "Security Patch" tag. But going about your normal patch cycle as normal for things not labelled "Secu…

What should they do instead? You have to rush to patch in any case. If the maintainers start to label commits with "security patch" the logical step is that it doesn't require imme…

At that level of optimization, the problem is not isolated. With Starlink the gain by using lasers is potentially lost with the additional processing that needs to happen when boun…

If you could have responsive and rich UI/UX 30-40 years ago you don't need anything but a highly efficient core prioritizing the UI. No need to waste energy on a super fast core.

Usually this is solved by including domain experts on the development teams. Their responsibility is not to program, but to document and verify that the test cases are adequate. Th…

Anything done poorly and terrible is, well, poor and terrible.

In a corporate environment I insist on treating warnings as errors. They are warnings for a reason and it will lead to hard to debug errors in a sufficiently large codebase/team. E…

I don't think you quite understood what (s)he wrote. The problem is using JVM without understanding some basic properties of it. Scaling is a matter of how you programmed it, not t…

I think it's less nefarious than that. The vendor did not fulfil their end of the contract, so the contract is voided and the money is transferred back. If the bank starts to go in…
