"1982 U.S.-PRC Joint Communiqué/Six Assurances
As they negotiated establishment of diplomatic relations, the U.S. and PRC governments agreed to set aside the contentious issue of U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. They took up that issue in the 1982 August 17 Communiqué, in which the PRC states “a fundamental policy of striving for peaceful reunification” with Taiwan, and the U.S. government states it “understands and appreciates” that policy. The U.S. government states in the 1982 communiqué that with those statements “in mind,” “it does not seek to carry out a long-term policy of arms sales to Taiwan,” and “intends gradually to reduce its sale of arms to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final resolution.” The U.S. government also declares “no intention” of “pursuing a policy of ‘two Chinas,’” meaning the PRC and the ROC, “or ‘one China, one Taiwan.’”"
Now you get what you deserve, folks
How is this behavior called again? ;)
You can instantly notice it when you try to read comments on youtube (w/ dark theme)
Who wants everyone to be forced to use the same BigTech slop?
But nowadays, with experience (this is not the first time that this is happening), it seems like it's the opposite, Microsoft is constantly trying to sabotage its "clients", i'm using quotes here because what are the alternatives they are allowed to use?
This level of impunity is criminal
But for the common mortal, cryptocurrencies are not about replacing anything, it's a highly volatile speculative playground, digital gangsters who want to make a quick buck
Nobody cares about the ideology
Bitcon as legal tender? lol
C++ and Rust share the same criticism
- poor readability
- poor code navigation
- poor compilation speed
I find it interesting how they call simplicity "hard mode", quite concerning
- revamped project system so i don't have to store extra files in my root directory, there is a plugin for it, but this should be working out of the box imo
- drag&drop panels to create layout with the mouse
- tabs in output/temporary panels
- UI API for status panel, side panel and in the views
- a proper built-in terminal, i know there is Terminus, but color support is lacking, tabs support is lacking, doesn't work well with tmux, overall it's very janky (wrt to scrolling)
- sticky scrolling (the thing that pins the scope name) or - the thingy that says where in the code we are, i forgot how it's called: [MyStruct > my_function]
I'd be willing to pay extra for a proper terminal for ST
I'd love an Immediate Mode API, give me full control, or give me access to your OpenGL context, i'll write my own UI
They also need to improve the layout system for their panels, Origami is good, but sometimes using your mouse is better
And i agree about getting stuff to Package Control, it's unnecessary painful
Other than that, it's the perfect editor, but that plugin API holds it back, lots of missed opportunity, specially with the advent of AI stuff
Trying to ostracize one model to favor the other is the recipe for a collapse
Perhaps that's what the USA is, a disposable Empire
No blood on my hands!
You are not being objective, a poll is not a vote
In a vote, the registered population gets to vote using official ID
In a poll, only 'god' knows who the respondents are

It's hard to believe it's done in good faith
The proper word is "reunite", as it was agreed with the US
It sure gonna hurt the US Military industrial complex, no war = no money

Zig is young, and far from 1.0, and many long promised features still not implemented
- better enums (with tagged union)
- compile time type introspection
D does the latter (very well btw), but completely missed the mark with enums
they have no shortage of highly qualified workers
and they may use all this knowledge to advance the fields in which they'll be working in
