I didn't say anything about strongly typed languages being bad for prototyping. I specifically said Rust is bad for prototyping speed. Lots of high profile cases of Rust being abandoned (Witchbrook comes to mind as an example). There h

Rewriting it in Rust isn't automatically faster and more importantly Eve's gameplay is constantly being iterated on and Rust has proven to be bad for that. Moreover, most of Eve's bottleneck isn't single server speed, it

I think it's not out of bounds to expect a company to go a little further to compensate for an issue. A prorated 1 hour refund doesn't reflect the reality that maybe that hour was more important to the customer because it was thei

Well that would explain why you wouldn't need a git history.

I'm tempted to suggest you have encountered the issue but your team mates are shielding you from the consequences (with or without their knowledge).

Yeah I never get the "we knew about it internally" excuse. I can understand if another reporter got to it on the same day and they were in the process of mitigating, but even then they should have to prove it somehow. I'm sur

I don't support this idea of rewriting everything in Rust but the answer to your question should be fairly obvious. Rust that compiles will generally be stable assuming you don't do a bunch of unwraps and panics. C that compiles c

This is all well and good in theory, but the number of times I've seen tests that don't actually test what they say they're testing is hard to count. Yes even when you encourage the developers to ensure the test fails first a

Except all major social media sites are also corporations with their own interests. I'd rather the business model of traditional media that rides on journalistic reputation to a recommendation feed where the only job of it is to keep y

For what it's worth, this is commonplace in Australia too. I feel like you're describing a general safe country thing. I've lived in Japan so I know it's probably one of the safest places in the world, but I feel like wh

I think the main reason more time might be spent thinking is because there's relatively less training data on Haskell out in the wild, meaning an agent may have to check back and forth with static analysis to figure out what's val

Plenty of valid reasons to pick C, memory safety isn't a reason to trade off all other possible benefits. One big reason is portability, you can't compile Rust for example for certain targets.

Do you need a reliable edge or just a slightly better than average edge?

I mean, supply chain attacks are a thing that could have happened even in the earlier days. Linux almost got backdoored in 2003. Also with the number of remote code execution exploits that have occurred in Web browsers over the years it&#x2

No, there was a big internal project (which they communicated publicly about - search for the blogs relating to it) to address it that involved roughly a year of effort from a big chunk of the developers.

Rovo is backed by the typical LLM providers in general, Atlassian isn't training its own models.

You're assuming performance has been the core priority, or even a priority at all, and I think this is a bad assumption to make. I would estimate a much smaller number of people-months of work if I were you. Dev users assume the only p

Or, you know, most steam deck users aren't using them constantly and so they don't get picked up in the survey.

The average Linux gamer is likely to have a very different setup to the average Linux user in general. It's a subset of a subset.

As far as I'm aware it keeps a history of the frequency you visit each directory so yes it will select the one you've visited more often (assuming you don't always start at the base one and work your way down).

There's nothing inherent about C++ that makes it more suited than Rust for game engines though, Rust supports careful management of memory too. Of course, nothing besides inertia (i.e. Libs, existing code, etc.). And that of course is

There are. The count is gotten by extrapolating from randomly selected areas of sky. This is more like another detailed picture of a small patch of sky.

While I agree they shouldn't be putting their money towards political causes, the scrutiny of the budget is also political in nature. Of the $400 million in expenses, only around $15 million went to executives, and around $1 million we

Is it that surprising that Edge is surpassing Firefox given Firefox doesn't have the onboarding ramp of Microsoft and Google? Microsoft shoves Edge in your face every chance it gets, as does Google. What can Mozilla do to compete again

Keep in mind that my own knowledge of physics is very rusty, so some of this is definitely making bad assumptions. The density in the singularity (centre) of the black hole is in theory infinite. But the event horizon (the part where light

Black holes need not be dense. The black hole at the centre of galaxy M87 has the density of air in our atmosphere. The larger the black hole, the less dense it is. So that alone doesn't preclude us existing inside of one.
