It's another 50% joint venture?

This is incorrect, ArianeGroup is mostly french, it's a joint venture between Airbus and Safran.

The french always had Ariane??

Honestly could you blame him for not liking Java in 2007? Between the many layers of abstractions the frameworks used, the exceptions and the sluggishness to compile it was not a compelling stack

It makes you wonder if people review code there given how broken the experience is, it's a core part of the product!

Please, read between the lines. Github actions has been a mess since 2019 at least. None of the instability is new, before this unprecedented growth (for a service that's supposed to scale horizontally) the excuse du jour was the azure

If fixing potholes and making the city run better is demagogy, I'd take than any day when the alternative is Cuomo or Adams. It's not like they were high-minded public servants looking at the long term

I looked it up because I'm interested in the subject but it seems it's only a proposal right now? At least according to this 5 month old blog post https://rhaas.blogspot.com/2026/03/pgplanadvice-plan-stab

At least you have access to USE INDEX on MySQL. On Postgres it's not rare to have a query suddenly perform awful in production because some switch flipped in the planner and now it's picking some random index

A t2 instance is virtualized, AWS keeps its servers for 5 years (see their 10k https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1018724/0001... ), so your t2 does get moved around regularly to newer

I mean if you run serious stuff on a non-ECC CPU from 2015, you'll probably have a bad time. They're great for hobbyists but people on here keep bringing them up as the flagbearer of euro hosting

We're not even talking cutting edge. If you browse hetzner's auction page you can see they're renting machines with almost decade old CPUs like the Xeon W-2145 or i7 6700. That's just a lot of old hardware..

Upcloud, Scaleway, Clever cloud, etc.

Never understood why hetzner gets brought up so positively here when there are dozens of EU competitors who are just as good and don't run 7 year old discounted servers

Congrats! I'd be curious to hear what changed (and what didn't) with applicants over the last 15 years. I feel like the programming community is very different than in the early 2010s – when's the last time you've seen a

For all intents and purposes you'll be able to move an open weight model wherever you want. I really dislike this rhetoric, you sound like the FSF guys who are like "you're not free until you're running coreboot with zer

Yeah and I was trying to explain that sum types don't work for pointers, without a significant performance hit. No one here is saying C is a great design, but in the context of 60 years ago, it worked out pretty well, and all the langu

Please check your tone down, I'm arguing politely with you but apparently you're so wrapped up in this that you're resorting to ad hominems. Sum types aren't the be all end all to all issues, for example you can not repr

Pascal had pointers? They could be `nil` too https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/ref/refse15.html

by atherton94027 3mo ago
How are you going to build sum types in a way where you can interact with assembly or machine code? The CPU doesn't know about that stuff

Genuinely curious, how would you handle cases where a value is unset without NULL? This is a legitimate case that happens a lot in eg data modeling

Middle-management as we knew it at the turn of the 2010s is probably gone forever. You don't need to coordinate many many teams as you used to. Same as huge frontend team with dedicated support for graphql, etc. AI made most of that re

Not at all — they're working on cheaper cars that they're testing in SF, and they will probably only roll out Waymo to the wealthiest markets in the US. Think airport rides to JFK instead of a taxi that works anywhere in the count

This applies to newspapers too — if you compare the print version to the online version of a newspaper you notice that there's a lot more attention paid to the paper version. Whereas the online version has all kinds of aggressive banne

I'm answering the claim about Artemis being more dangerous than the space shuttle. Obviously landing on the moon is a lot riskier.
