This summer i was traveling through Germany and god fucking dam their telecommunication infrastructure is just 3rd world tier, so freaking bad. Constant signal loss, 5g was a rare sight etc.

Its quiet easy to understand, you can be liberal and free so long as wealth keeps flowing into your part of the world. What are you going to do make fun of becoming more wealthier.

The liberalism and freedom stops once too much money flows out of your part of the world, hence companies like palantir popping up like mushrooms. No one likes to be made fun of when they are in a declining trajectory.

China was suppose to become a giant sweatshop which would be allowed to gain subsistence wealth. Just enough to produce and consume western product but not wealthy enough to ever outgrow their station in the world.

More like west vs rest of the world. Its cold war round 2 but this time its the west that is starting to hide behind a iron/cyber wall.

Thats true with Go but it feels those features are more rare. Compared to say what feels like almost yearly changes in C# to the point a lot of people think its overwhelming and it usually not clear how much of those features really add to the language and dev experience.

My experience with Golang so far is biased because i only recently looked at golang, for the past decade i have been working mostly in java and c#, so most of those newly added features in golang is stuff i'm already deeply familiar with conceptually.

Having spend a year tinkering in zig and it's absence of features has made me want to drop c#/java professionally and pick up Golang. Its quiet annoying when you see a codebases written in C#/java and you can tell in which year/era it was written because of the language features. The way of writing things in C# changes like every 4 years or so.

There's a certain beauty in only having to know 1~2 loops/iteration concepts compared to 4~5 in modern multi paradigm languages(various forms of loops, multiple shapes of LINQ, the functional stuff etc).

Sounds more like your use case is like the 1~2% of the cases a simple server and sqlite is maybe not the correct answer.

Its China they will create their own EUV ecosystem, there are sources that keep track of Chinese developments and there's a lot of EUV related patents being rewarded within China.

So i wouldn't be surprised if they will announce first initial set of EUV test runs this year or early next year as a cherry on top of their "Made in China 2025" cake.

The US has immense pressure on the dutch government, given their control over ASML . Its US big tech and semi design studios that determines who will need to buy EUV from ASML. Given ASML is not allowed to do business with China, Russia etc.

A lot of those tools are also usable on windows thats why i like them.

Morganthau is smilling from heaven or hell seeing the americans making his plan for Germany a reality.

The US problem is they are going from a global brutal empire to a shrinking empire. But the debt and lifestyle of the US is still that of a global empire. That is what has broken many past empires and will break the US empire.

Hey the state department has a $1.6B budget post for anti China propaganda. Im sure getting a cut from that cookie jar is lucrative.

Im sure those groups China disfavors can ask their NED or state department handlers some extra budget to get a OpenAI or Claude subscription.

With allies like this, who really needs Russia as an enemy.

I think its only the US that's an outlier in the west.

Here in the Netherlands your biometrics are registered with your ID card. Anyone that has gotten a new dutch ID card pretty much had to scan their fingerprints. Your bank account is also linked to your ID card etc. Reporting of big amounts is also standard practice in the west Europe. Know people that had to work on those system.

Also you don't want foreign money being able to transact freely its a disaster recipe to get regime change going. Especially a country like Vietnam that could be used as a battering ram against China. Which makes it a prime target for western NGOs.

Yeah but EU leadership did everything in their powers to work themselves into these set of cards. I would bet Russian political elites are laughing their asses of because they were successful in their pivot to Asia and away from Europe. Into a westless world order, where they are actually sitting at the table and are not part of the menu.

Its was so nice to just quickly write up a static file server. Just to play with wasm without needing to use the usual python http server thingy.

I was told the std.http.* isn't meant to be used for production servers but its nice that i now have a drop in zig file that contains a very very... bare bones static file server i can add to zig projects that might need it.

You can be joyous right now, just remove one self from all the negativity.

How would that even work, it feels like the body/brain would have to be reshaped?

It sounds like something webgl2 should be able to handle easily.

Looks like tactical nukes is on the menu, boys...

Is probably what the Russian and Chinese reaction to a tactical nuke usage even if it was for bunker busting.

Better to swallow the poison that doesn't kill you(for now) than to swallow the one that is intended to kill you.

Given that US big tech funds a lot of orgs they will always have a big stake. One could for example filibuster certain Chinese or Russian features/proposals etc for a long time. Or at the last minute vote to do a 180% on a design proposals so US Rival have to redo an implementation. Standard office politics shit.

Huawei always had good linux support on their Matebook series. Was pleasently surprised when i tried to run linux on the Matebook x Pro.

I agree i rather see all this discussion etc take place on dedicated forums or other text based options so search engines can index the stuff..

You can easily integrate any C library, so pretty much all the important stuff is available. You also have Zig-gamedev repo where you have community written zig wrappers for those c libraries.

80% mark means you just finished the happy flow and written 30% of the code bases. Now you need to handle the unhappy parts and need to write extra test code for covering all those edge cases.

Ooh but don't you know we just need an extra language with abstractions that can be compiled into prompting statements. Maybe something like sql.

Yeah the research result and IP should belong to the public commons, if the initial researchers get a head start with exploiting the IP im fine with that.
