That's like asking why construction companies rely on cranes, concrete and steel rebar when they can be using sticks, leaves and vine.
LLVM is so mature that it's hard to improve it. If you don't care about the performance of your languages code then fine, use leaves and sticks and moderate winds will knock down your shelter.
If you start your statement with hyperbolic nonsense why would I care to read the rest of it? I just checked IG reels and I went through 36 reels before getting to my first ad. I admit that is way more than I even guessed it would be, but pretending 90% is reasonable is a joke.
The link that we're literally replying to just described that it's growing in all major metrics. Stop letting niche internet communities for clingey geeks over-influence your world views.
You can't and shouldn't try to understand QM from a CM standpoint. If you remember Taylor series expansions, this is like trying to understand `sin(x)` by looking at it's first order Taylor series expansion `x`. Your question about momentum and a potential hill is the same question as "how did the value of sin(x) start decreasing if `x` is linear?" You're using too few terms of the series expansion. The mechanisms of Newton's laws are first order terms of a proper QM solution.
I guess from having lived some time in north and south California I assume "dry" means "actually dry" as in "it's not going to rain at all this month".
My few hours of usage is 30 different 5 minute stints over the course of 6 months. I don't remember anything between usages. English debugger prompts will be amazing.
If somebody asks "is the house falling down" and you ignore the question then that's worse than responding "no."
Come on man, if you don't understand how a business can be showing signs of unhealthiness while still increasing revenue then don't post. That's such a trivial superficial analysis of reality.
I'm not going to pretend to know or understand enough about Twitch's business to agree or disagree with whether they need layoffs. But a shallow comment of "revenue go up" is lowbrow nonsense.
You have some serious disillusion.
To make your analogy close to physics -- imagine you found a unicorn horn and can tell from the biological makeup that it is indeed a horn grown from some sort of horse-like mammal. If you searched 99.9999% of the earth for animals that might have grown that horn and found nothing then the best thing to do would be to continue looking within that 0.00001%.
We can't figure out what comes after the standard model of particle physics. But we know it's wrong. e.g. we know black holes exist and something has to happen within them. But we don't have a theory that can predict what that is. e.g. we found a unicorn horn. So we have to desperately search for it.
Hossenfelder is right that it's shitty to have to keep pushing the energy boundaries in which we hope we'll see some interesting behavior. But there's literally nothing else to do. We've searched 99.99999% of earth and there's no unicorn. Do we start denying the existence of the unicorn horn that we're holding?
Google threw the weight of their top C++ engineers behind Carbon. It's happening. That's really what matters in the world of programming languages. Not how good it is.
hmmmm
> We can even think about having a standard to describe and document ML systems (and I would totally look that up because I have the right to know how my keyboard suggests words, why this search result that seems unusual is in fact a sponsored placement, or why this autonomous vehicle chose to run over the pedestrian so not to kill the baby on board...).
Yea you know nothing about ML...
How do you not understand why people would want to do something faster than they typically do it?
How you know somebody doesn't have a clue what they are talking about.
That's like saying "chess is a bunch of nerds playing chess with more pieces."
