Or like the United States with their military operations protecting w̶e̶a̶k̶ a̶n̶d̶ o̶p̶p̶r̶e̶s̶s̶e̶d̶ p̶e̶o̶p̶l̶e̶ their interests around the world ?

Can you create apps like these on Blender ?

Yes of course, but today's japanese and korean cars are well renowned and considered top in class, what about Xiaomi and other chinese smartphone brands ?

Severely lagging behind Apple and Samsung and price-to-quality ratio it's kinda meh, completely different evolution.

> The EU will probably do the same within max 5 years, European car brands are about to be wiped up if they don't

Currently chinese cars are perceived as super low quality and the only strong selling point they have is the price, as they had when Huawei, Xiaomi and other brands entered the smartphone market.

If I look at BYD catalogue in the italian website I can see:

- the Dolphin starting from about 36k€ when there's the Peugeot e2008 starting from 31k€ and FIAT 600 starting from 31k€ as well

- the Atto 3 starting from about 42k€ when rumors say the Peugeot e3008 will start from about 46k€

- two higher end models which are perfectly matched by BMW offerings at the same price and with comparable performance, not even looking at other premium brands such as Audi or Mercedes

I specifically made the comparison with BYD but I'm happy to give a look at other brands you could suggest.

Even considering chinese carmakers pricing power and old school carmakers lagging behind, I honestly can't see anything disrupting here.

ps: Asian phone manufacturers is much different from China phone manufacturers given that in EU all put together they barely reach Samsung market share. On the same note, let's not forget there are many established asian carmakers outside China ready to take their slice of the cake.

> Legacy auto CEO want to gain time

Stellantis has already been selling hundreds of thousands of BEVs in the last couple of years and changing the entire offer of several brands they own, a process they are gonna complete in a few years, namely 3/4.

They also have a strong position on commercial vehicles as well.

Their position is everything but weak, considering they are indeed a "legacy automaker".

Yes, same conclusion.

I wonder if people using it for writing code are running docker at all, you read so many comments on HN of how the battery life is incredible (on any thread about comparisons between any Mac and any other laptop) while in my experience a full charge Macbook Air M2 lasts about 6 hours with Docker running instead of the usual 15 it lasts when its off.

> You will not find the same on an M1/2. In fact I'm not sure it even warms up?

My M2 does quite regularly with only Chrome, Slack, VS Code and a few docker containers running.

Sadly people will keep overlooking F# in favor of literally anything.

It is an amazing language within a solid and productive ecosystem that in my opinion just feels good to use.

It's a shame not many company are betting on it despite it being rock solid for almost two decades.

It's just the same good old EU BAD -> everything coming from there BAD. There's even a comment under this post on how GDPR "degrades the web in the name of privacy", I guess trackers are just way better then cookie banners after all.

Then you read Utah and California have comparable proposals yet I've seen a single mention of them in the whole comment section.

Just to add, deposit rate is 0.75% while the refinancing rate is 1.25%.

Most of what you ask is easily available simply browsing the webpage though.

Pretty much agree, was going to make a similar but shorter comment.

To me it feels like the opposite, Windows is the true Coke Cola just because some things work better and the vast majority of people use it like you suggest, Linux is some fresh Pepsi (to say, I know the other is more popular but I don't care and prefer its unique taste) and macOS is some ok discount cola, which is alright but nothing people should go proud of drinking.

But you are considering an increase only in options without the increase in knowledge to better evaluate options parent is suggesting, and you are putting the constraint that only single option at time may be adopted while in reality multiple may work in parallel/together just fine.

> It's quite enjoyable.

Not really, it's full of people hating and insulting and pretty much comparable to the average crypto bro subreddit.

I think the link is broken, it's not HTTPS

Sounds like a bold claim to me, let alone the "much more" part.

Have you got any data to support it ?

Good news they didn't in those cases then, hopefully they will this time.

Did it, though ? Isn't WWW from 1989 and Facebook from 2004 or so ?

I didn't got the final report because of some error, those numbers were printed during the execution of the benchmark.

I executed it giving both the client and the server 4 CPUs, now I'm running it again with 180s duration and gonna update the original comment if I get to see the report or there is any significant change

Tried to run the benchmark on my laptop (with a Ryzen 5 3500U), got different results much closer to what I would expect normally:

==> Running benchmark for java_grpc_pgc_bench... Requests/sec: 25563.46

==> Running benchmark for cpp_grpc_mt_bench... Requests/sec: 31389.24

==> Running benchmark for dotnet_grpc_bench... Requests/sec: 25376.18

==> Running benchmark for go_grpc_bench... Requests/sec: 29158.60

==> Running benchmark for rust_tonic_st_bench... Requests/sec: 28120.25

Different images for the same language (java, rust, cpp) performed with similar if not worse results

C# in Depth does exactly what you need, starts from C# 2.0 and cover all new features added in newer versions. https://www.manning.com/books/c-sharp-in-depth-fourth-editio...

I have been using Manjaro KDE for several months now on my daily driver, I must say I like them both.

Main issues was finding few packages with a different name than the one used on Debian based distros.

I didn't make many changes on KDE since I'm not a huge fan of customization, it's fast and has a really good look by default, same things I love of few distros shipping with GNOME such as PopOS.

Can you please list the other 90% of must have capabilities for day to day development ?

It's Walmart and not a financial institution but this is a great talk about immutability applied to the backend services using F#: https://youtu.be/FskIb9SariI

I don't think you can call it mind-expanding or intellectually stimulating, but I'm currently following the MOOC about modern Web Development from the University of Helsinki https://fullstackopen.com/.

I think it's quite solid and valuable, has a good amount of exercises and I really like the frameworks/technologies they teach (React/Express/TypeScript/GraphQL).

Also trying to expand on my own the topics and concepts they introduce, so I think at the end it's gonna be a very good long-time investment.

For more specific stuff like Algorithms and Data Structures or Programming Languages knowledge, I usually prefer books over MOOCs.

Most if not all the modern frameworks/projects use Babel to compile modern Javascript to the es5 standard from 2009. I guess 11 years of browser backwards compatibility are enough, or should we downgrade and support IE 6 ?

May I ask how you experience with F# was and how you used it ? I'm slowly learning it but I'm not 100% sure to keep going, maybe switch to other similar languages with bigger communities/bigger market demand

In general, many of the "new" features introduced in the past years, both in C# and in many other languages, simply come from the world of functional programming. So yes, F# in the natural playground for these new features simply because it's functional first.

Also, in many other ways is an incredibly powerful language, which leverage in a vry powerful ecosystem, sadly is kinda left behind without big sponsors.
