There's much more to differentiate Rust and Go than support for generics and error handling verbosity. In my mind (and experience) they don't even occupy the same problem space.

That wouldn't affect embeds, which is where a lot of abuse would likely come from.

It does depend on where in the US you are or how your company handles remote compensation. Bay area, techtropolii, and other high tech areas might pay that but there are large parts of the US where a majority of SWEs make less than $100k. FAANG is a small part of the SWE jobs available in the US.

He's close friends with many on the board, so they back him at every turn. The shareholders can't do anything when the board doesn't care what they have to say.

The example is a false equivalency, it's comparing teaching religion to teaching science.

When the Bible, God, and the Devil are overwhelmingly backed by science, give me a call.

NFTs?

What are your thoughts on Elixir and Phoenix?

It doesn't change.

> 1) Arc GPUs. Looks like they will be seriously disruptive.

I'm curious to read more about this. Everything I've seen about Intel's new discrete GPUs makes it sound like it'll be more of the same when compared to AMD and nvidia, and potentially not even as powerful.

So still misogyny.

What? The "Cyber Ninjas" aren't doing it for you?

Thank you for including your perspective. I also agree that singular "they" is a drastic improvement over "he/she", or "he or she".

I'm not sure anyone will see this because this post is over a day old, but what can someone traveling really do about it? If you refuse they'll just refuse to let you board your plane. I usually (especially now during a pandemic) don't fly when there's no reason for me to, so refusing me access to my flight is a pretty good way to make me comply, illegal or not.

About a month ago I had to be in court at a certain time and from past experience (filing and getting paperwork to the court) I knew they'd make you take off your belt if it had metal on it. That day I specifically wore a belt with no metal on it so I wouldn't have to take it off, but it didn't make any difference. The sign at security said "no metal objects" and then gave a list of example items with metal on them, belt included, and that was what the security agent pointed to when telling me I still needed to take my belt off. I objected, telling her my pants would fall down if I did and that the list was an EXAMPLE of metal objects, but the only response I got was that if I wanted to I could complain to someone at some other time. Another agent chimed in that they require you to take your belt off because "people could be hiding a knife in their belt", as if that made any sense at all. Isn't that what a metal detector is for in the first place? Anyway, I had no option but to take off my belt or I just wouldn't get to court on time. I let my pants fall down (I decided to do this earlier because I knew it was a possibility) and waddled through security with my pants around my ankles.

So yeah, what could I have done in that case? Just miss my court date?

SQLite is incredibly ubiquitous and used in BILLIONS of devices and applications around the world.

Just because it's not used in web applications as much doesn't mean it's not production ready. It's used in many hardened systems, which I think they'd avoid if it wasn't production ready.

Let me guess, you'd consider yourself in the top tier of drivers?

What do you do when that one machine goes down?

When did EKS release free cluster management?

It's interesting that langserver.org is actually run by SourceGraph and it's still out of date.

I guess disagreeable is one way to say "entitled".

I'm sure a bigger battery would increase the cost of the laptop. At $200 the margin has to be pretty thin already.

That's completely wrong. Any games you paid for are yours to play without any monthly subscription. The monthly subscription does give you access to a free game or so a month that you'd lose access to and you wouldn't be able to play at 4K but you wouldn't actually lose access to the games you paid for.

It actually makes me feel better about the project seeing Legrand on the list of companies than it does any of the 3 tech companies in the title.

I'd pay $1000 for a domestic flight with leg room and a slightly wider seat. I flew first class out to San Diego recently and I would have done it on the way home as well but they wanted $2500 more for the same flight the other direction. That's just ridiculous. Flights in the past were never that expensive for the same comfort.

Oh, great! Thank you!

I looked at that page and I just wanted to clarify something for myself. Does this mean you can't do a headless server since you need VS Code and some plugins? I like the idea and it would definitely be a strong argument to go back to VS Code but I was hoping I could just run some kind of server on a terminal-only VM.

I made this as a presentation to the people I worked with a couple years ago. I haven't updated it since then but I think it's still relevant today if you want some perspective on why I personally like it: https://aphistic.github.io/why-i-like-rust/

"By now it's safe to assume that most developers will know about SQL injection and know how to handle it. Well, except for all those people that still write software susceptible to them."

Do you have any recommendations for tools for this?

Sourceforge was definitely a "quasi-monopoly". If you weren't on Sourceforge you had a much harder time gaining credibility. There were also other projects that didn't use Sourceforge just like there are projects that don't use GitHub now.
