Is exa gone ? Can you not download exa anymore ? Are the binaries deleted from the internet ? Is the source completely overwritten ? Has it been removes from crates.io and from package managers ? Has it suddenly stopped listing files in you

Exactly! ls is alive, and just exists, mostly. The commits done on it are extremely minor changes to save up 0.0001% of performance and because the APIs it was using are sometimes deprecated. And that's fine! However, when a new projec

Europe's definition of monopoly is one that actually makes sense, unlike the US's bafflingly stupid version. You do not need over 50% to be a monopoly.

And Apple wasn't planning to use USB-C either, but the EU didn't argue and told them to. Apple does not get to override laws. They either obey, or leave the market.

One is software and is explicitly made to be replaceable. Your iPhone will not stop working because you uninstalled the Weather app. It might be slightly more unhappy if you desolder the RAM.

While I do not have any control over whether the place I buy my jeans from uses overworked children from Bangladesh, I also have the very basic human empathy needed to know you shouldn't complain to said children when your Shein order

You can add other languages, such as Kotlin to that list. It is explicitly made to give you the ability to build a strongly typed DSL with proper scoping, references, validation, comes with all the benefits of a real language, including wor

Just like every language that implicitly names the current value of the iterator: - It's the innermost iterator that takes priority - You are encouraged to name your iterators if you do so (for particles { part -> part.velocity } )

The vendor lock-in is a feature to them. They're not a tech company. They're banks. They're insurances. Lock-in means they can send a lot of cash to someone and the problem gets fixed, which is the only thing they care about.

Are you horrified at the idea that we still use screwdrivers when power tools exist ? Wordpress does the job. It's not particularly good at anything, but it works damn well. Wordpress is 40% of all sites in the world.
