Clapping 5 times after the first speaker has finished talking and the next speaker is yet to begin is not "disruptive".

Just about Anything can be considered "disruptive" by that definition. What is next ? Get someone arrested since they made a face or frowned at your speech ? Or sneezed or coughed ? Why even bother with an audience then ?

Our company has a strict gift giving and no-bribes policy. Everyone needs to sign that they have read it. It is even more extensive for the sales/procurement teams.

Utterly Insane. I mean the saying "Truth is stranger than fiction" is proven true by this US administration again, again and again. If you put this as a plot point in a novel, you would get a 1-star rating with readers complaining about lack of realism.

> An undersold embarrassment of this fiasco is the Marine Corps has 10 (ten!) amphibious assault carriers that are more capable than most nations' flagships

These Marine amphibious assault carriers are highly vulnerable to swarm tactics by fast Iranian assault boats. Iran has a few thousand of them which can be deployed fast.

You need a full strike group to support the assault. And that means those ships are in range of Iranian mass-drone strikes and missiles. And Iran has a lot of hidden missile cities that they are yet to reveal.

There is no way to achieve territorial supremacy without tens of thousands of casualties. It will make Vietnam look like a papercut.

Chinese criminal syndicates have even begun to conduct lure and abduct Indians into scamming centres. They do this by posting fraudulent online job ads leading Indians to clandestine compounds in the golden triangle nations. And then confiscate passports after they arrive, restrain them and then enslave them using threats of physical torture, electric shocks, and isolation cells.

Why do they even bother with India ? Easy manpower and one of the world's largest English speaking nations.

You can say that about most US allies in the middle-east. I don't see the US waging war on them.

My opinion is that good old UIKit based on MVC (Model-View-Controller) is simply excellent for building scalable, complex and performant UI's in traditional, compiled languages. The declarative, state-driven UI works wonderfully on the small keynote-demo scale but needs a specialized language to support it on the large scale. Otherwise you waste a LOT of time debugging.

And Swift is simply just not that language. Apple should have just invented a specialized UI DSL to support SwiftUI. And continued to support good old MVC first-class. Explicit Constraints, Lifecycle Clarity and Programmable Control make UIKit apps easier to debug and fix.

SwiftUI should cleanly extracted out its reactive framework as a standalone, public framework for non-UI or decoupled use-cases. That would have helped in fixing a lot of issues.

Internet discussion != real-world professional fakery

The value proposition about this web framework over things like React, Phoenix, etc is that it uses incremental computing right ? Using Jane Street's incremental computing library. I see it being used at https://github.com/janestreet/bonsai/blob/f31661450eb133fe89...

Larri Ellisauron is too big to fail. He will be bailed out. Just need to call Trump and offer (tax-free) donations to the 2028 Trump campaign.

You are then dangerously obsolete. New branding means old flesh thrown to bio-degradable trash can and new flesh for the nexgen corpo needles.

I would love a CSS type system for humans. The language never stays in my brain for more than 2 weeks and then I have to re-learn it from scratch.

What does plotly do that other libraries don't ?

Never understood why we need to add this ridiculous tag for mobile. CSS/HTML are responsive by default.

PR human captcha for every commit pushed to a PR ?

Peace Deals are so that Barron Trump can buy low and then sell high when Trump declares War again. He will soon be the youngest "self-made" billionaire.

All the people saying AI makes less mistakes than humans are just completely wrong. That has NOT been my experience in the last year and half after reviewing ~100 AI-assisted PRs. Humans made LESS mistakes when they took direct responsibility. (Some developers don't make any mistakes) Also, humans don't generally tend to repeat the same mistakes again and again.

General code quality has gone to shit and problems are discovered far too late.

The BIGGEST mistake of capitalism is the blank check given to acquisitions and mergers. Its like permitting a ravenous organism that grows by consuming others and pretending that the gigantic mutated Jupiter-sized Shoggoth with a billion devouring tentacles is still the same species as the cute friendly hamster-sized blob that it started out as.

They have been doing amazing. Any other nation which did this would have been sanctioned to death. The last several years have 100% convinced me that facts don't matter in geopolitics - only propaganda and narrative matter. In fact, facts matter least of all and perception is everything.

> Oh, and you think everyone will continue prpducing all the things you need for you to use them forever withiut contributing anything back to anyone?

What happens when labour-based production is fully replaced by automated factories? Then ?

For non-LISP languages on k8s, you have Tilt (https://tilt.dev/) or Skaffold (https://skaffold.dev/) nowadays to support continuous development.

I am sorry but this is nonsense. People already have access on how to make explosives. There are academic textbooks and professional reference manuals that cover the science, synthesis, and industrial manufacturing of explosive materials.

Information != physical medium.

Until models become sentient, it requires a human to execute dangerous activities. Nations already have laws regarding what a human can and cannot do. Let us stick to that.

Our production incidents have dramatically increased over last 2 years after management pushed AI. In 2023, we never failed our SLA. Now, we continuously keep failing it due to some stupid outage. There was no real change in architecture or strategy - only the adoption of AI.

There have already been several high-profile AI-root-cause incidents at many companies this year. I guess we can look forward to even more deterioration in the next 2 years.

Patreon lost >90% of customers from India and a few other Asian nations since they did not implement credit card 2FA nor implement support for native payment gateways. Had to drop a dozen patreon subscriptions and found several hundreds online were complaining about the same thing. Several creators were puzzled why they had a sudden drop without any feedback. Many folks just shrugged and silently moved onto other mechanisms.

Sorry, but gopls doesn't even support moving files/packages and updating references properly - which is basic, tablestakes, "everyday" feature supported out of the box by Goland.

I can list 2 dozen other things that Gopls doesn't support but Goland does.

US Supreme Court has yet to make any explicit ruling though. It The EU top court (CJEU) is currently hearing arguments. I guess we will know in 2027-28 globally.

> Open source developer: I'm going to open source my software so the world can use it for whatever they want!

No, you are describing a SPECIFIC License called the The Unlicense: https://opensource.org/license/unlicense

This is ONLY ONE such OSS license and does not apply to all OSS.

Doesn't this merely mean that states will do the job of investment ?

ALL High-tech Infra that leverages "eminent domain" SHOULD be held in the name of the nation state for public good not by the billionaire or his corpo. All these private data centers that leverage eminent domain to grab land should be property of the state and only temporarily leased to the corpo.
