Next time can you to do Python's string interpolation? ;-) It's much more pleasant to read (when properly used).

Not the GP but while Odin has a syntax similar to Go, it has manual memory management instead of a GC, that's a pretty big difference.

I'd say that is not its biggest issue. The way to escape things is by far its biggest issue, a passwd like \, \", \\ would have been far easier.

> or just dumb design (e.g. showing onedrive locations first when trying to save a file in Word)

Your example is not one of a 'dumb' design, it is a deliberate 'dark pattern' --> pushing you to use OneDrive as much as possible so that to earn more money.

Well given that often the alternative was BASIC which was interpreted, it also felt fast to run..

I remember having two class about networking, the first one was top down, it was awful, the second one was bottom up, everything clicked.

And if it is the fault of the other driver and they refused to provide the data?

That is a dumb réaction, sorry. The cars who 'rat' on you can also rat on the other driver or show that you didn't do anything wrong..

> Or exercise more and it becomes easier to exercise.

Only if you don't injure yourself while exercising.

Interesting topic, too bad I didn't know about this a few years ago..

I didn't find it very interesting sorry.

> Atheism is not a sin - not if a sincere belief. An honest mistake is not sin.

Historically, religions (when there in position of power of course) have not been especially kind with atheists..

Ah OK, yes you're right.

In the countryside, I doubt that this is the case in Tokyo.

FWIW I'm French.

> I speculate that a different thing is happening in Europe. Every time I hear European takes on issues, it feels like Europe is post-religion, post-values, post-meaning. Everything is relative; pleasure is the only personal goal, and not harming others is the only external goal. Why even have kids? Why get married? It's a lot of work,

Yes, to all this.

> plus there's a widely-held belief that Europeans/Westerners in general bear generational guilt because of what colonizers did in the 1500s anyway, so it feels virtuous to voluntarily decline as a civilization, freeing up more oil and resources for the developing world.

Uh? I've never heard about it in the media. The only thing vaguely similar would be the focus on minimizing our resource consumption so that our kids doesn't suffer "too much" about the man-made climate change, but usually the focus is about buying less thing, using renewable energy, not making fewer children.

Depends on which level of 'amateur chess', for kids there are real beginners who barely know the rules and ~1600-elo players in the same competition..

That's not a reasonable objection, each proposal must be evaluated on its own, not on other non existing future proposal.

Agreed, their reason for not allowing it is weird. No hidden overloading? OK make it explicit then: #+, #/ would be fine.

That's a minor detail but C's "%d" isn't something to copy in a new language, python's format/template string is much better.

> I am more interested in its explanation, now that the theory has been proven correct again and again.

What do you call an explanation? An interpretation of QM? There are dozens but none are especially satisfying..

As for the 'delayed choices' IMHO it is a poor interpretation of the data: see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQv5CVELG3U for example.

There's Austral https://austral-lang.org/ for linear types, I'm not sure what is the state of the language but it has a nice tutorial about linear types.

Bah, the answer is easy: words should be used with their most common definition, everything else is a lie. If you want to use a word 'differently' then you need to do so explicitly.

It's interesting that Rust and Pony have différent default for addition.

> Unfortunately this is another "if we all just" solution that humanity seems unable to do

Not all the time, see the success of GPL software. But yes, each community has to relearn the lesson: promises don't matter what matter is whether the data are 'open' or not.

Sure, but as a 'dream' portable executable is kind of funny when execution by itself brings you nothing (except heating the CPU), you also need portable IO, security, i18n, a11y..

What I mean is that portable execution is only a very small part of 'good' SW: you need also security, i18n, a11y etc.

"Dream", well until you think about i18n and a11y..

> Religious institutions, too, have long shaped minds with varying degrees of success.

Given that a huge portion of the world's population is religious (a quick google search say 84%), I'd say with a very high success.

At work we

1) use a git hook to generate Gerrit IDs for new commit. AFAIK, JJ doesn't support these.

2) we also use submodules, which must be handled using git commands.

So if I decide to use JJ, I'll have to use a mix of JJ and git..

Linus Torvalds as an example of a self taught engineer is quite funny too as he wrote Linux while following a CS degree.
