Direct action to make WHAT happen? Any sane direct action concerning animal rights or climate change would NECESSARILY reduce the amount of meat available and/or increase the price. In the end, there is no alternative to eating far less meat. And you’re delusional if you believe the very privileged western consumer base would accept those consequences.
That is exactly why consumers must realize their consumption habits are unsustainable, and unethical.
The oil industry is, of course, doing all that polluting for the sheer fun of it. Our collective consumption habits, esp. in the PRIVILEGED western countries, have absolutely nothing to do with it.
There is no sustainable way to eat the amount of meat we do, no matter how much or how little capitalism gets involved. Even assuming the absolute best (aka unrealistic) stats for grass-fed cows, we’d still have to reduce our meat consumption to 1/7 of where it currently is. Do you think that is doable just by destroying some companies? Do you think people would just accept that???
It does support it, it’s just slower than JS. WA is faster in other aspects though, so frameworks that compile to WA (like the Rust framework Leptos) still end up being faster than a lot of JS ones.
You can also copy paste by manually copying text by hand, would call that a valid alternative to Ctrl-C/V?
I don’t understand the need for Ctrl-C/V, when manually copying the text exists. I know it’s snarky, but that’s the level of difference we’re talking about here. Or imagine, to delete a line, someone Right Arrows 50 times, then backspaces 50 times, instead of using the shortcut.
I’d recommend everyone check out https://prql-lang.org/. It’s SQL, but readable and writable in a sane way.
And no, SQL is NOT readable or writable for anything involving more than a single join.
SQL is horrible as a language to read or write. There’s a million different variants, because it lacks so many basic things. And when used in other code, you generally end up string concatinating one language in another language, with all the HORRIBLE bugs something like that brings about.
Imagine Backend People said we should just write adhoc Javascript for the frontend by concatinating the “correct” code in the backend.
Without a DSL for writing SQL, any sufficiently complex program will end up with string concatinating all over the place. Basically, writing a language with ZERO checks or highlighting or anything. That’s asking for trouble.
But coming from Java, I agree that some ORMs go way too far.
I want a shooter-esque game crossed with MOBA stuff. Basically, I just want Monday Night Combat, Battleborn or Gigantic to come back.
Writing a CHIP-8 Emulator was really fun. There’s a lot of resources out there and it’s really fun, small low level project you can “finish” in a week of casual coding. As someone who was mostly coding highlevel in my job, I really learned a lot.
The Prime Video example was more like moving from nano-service insanity to sanity. They basically split EVERY POSSIBLE STEP into separate lambdas. They switched to still using microservices, but they do all transcoding steps for a single video on the same microservice instance (aka sanity).
How’s the filesystem performance? Whenever I’ve mounted something into a Docker Container, the performance has suffered. For example, things like NPM/MVN suddenly take way longer.
How do you manage JVM versions? We have many older projects that use 8, and some newer ones using 17, for example.
Kubernetes is so easy! Unless you’re insane enough to have any state at all in your app. But who does that?
Nier Automata. I really hated the replaying it part. The combat gets incredibly boring after the first two playthroughs. I also found the supposedly “deep” story to be extremely lacking, very on the nose and, like way too much japanese entertainment, bipolar when it comes to emotions.
Ironically, I learned Rust first, and later looked at Go. I found a lot of the syntax needlessly “different”. That being said, it’s still a decent language. Point being, a lot of the weirdness subsides once you understand why it’s there.
Personally, I don’t actually care about the lifecycle and memory management stuff. What I like about Rust is:
Why learn Rust? For the same reason everyone should learn different languages. To learn new concepts and see new perspectives on old problems. It’ll make you a better developer even in your previous languages.
Compiler checked typing is strictly superior to dynamic typing. Any criticism of it is either ignorance, only applicable to older languages or a temporarily missing feature from the current languages.
Using dynamic languages is understandable for a lot of language “external” reasons, just that I really feel like there’s no good argument for it.
And that one single line that makes zero FUCKING SENSE AND YOU SPENT 5 DAYS TRYING TO FIX IT!!! That definitely needs a comment so the next idiot (aka you in 6 months) doesn’t think “what useless shit is this? Let’s delete this!”.
For bigger projects, anything with MANDATORY types is a must for me. Optional, not compiler checked hinting doesn’t cut it.
Not that i hate the language, but I do hate the tooling around it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a pleasant experience with setting up a Python project. And all the data stuff is just wrappers for code in other languages, making the packaging story even uglier, even harder.
I have never had a good experience with a Debian server. Every single time I had to add unstable or third party repos to get anything remotely current to run. What’s the point if you have to add unstable shit anyway?
