physical vs digital is a spectrum:

- a physical disc, playable as-is

- physical, with major flaws without online updates

- physical, was playable on release, now requires updates

- physical, unplayable without updates

- physical, contains only a launcher to download full game

- physical box without disc, contains download code only

- digital

So uh, could impressions decrease across the board, not only on X. Like, social platforms have peaked years ago and the downward trend is completely organic.

This seems to still require initialization in a specific order.

Think it might be possible to generate all possible combinations of field init chains and feed it to compiler

The trajectory is simple: everyone is hooked on paid AI subscription and loses the skill of thinking and learning. The models are proprietary and cloud-only. Everything you input is also monetized. The end.

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it". So, this guy is "building an AI startup and investing in the space", right. Thousands of jobs in AI depend on you to start paying for the models because "free version is over a year behind".

What AI is good at is generating billions of similar "something big, act now" stories just to get you to pay. It is an advert.

> information from the Android Auto platform

Can the quantity and length of tire marks on tarmac be used as a proxy for HBEs?

These are multipliers. First, the QA left, but nothing major happened for years, automated tests did suffice. Then, vibe code happened, that with the lack of QA, led to disaster.

I doubt "studies" exist and proving every little assumption takes too much effort as per Brandolini's law.

Who are "we"? China population is 4 times the US, with carbon emissions just 3 times greater, making them produce less carbon per capita.

> Using empty structs also hurts readability

An empty struct is idiomatic and expected to be used in a Set type. When/if the memory optimization is reintroduced, no code change will be needed to take advantage of it.

In 2025, is it still prohibively expensive to run some community-supported crawler & search engine? Without Google censorship, ads, and ai.

What if.. the management made a request to make the game take more space than the previous release? So everyone could see just how much content there is and how much better everything is.

I mean, the developers cannot be that incompetent while being able to ship a high quality product.

Instead of "-X POST" and "-H 'Content-Type: application/json'", use "-d" or "--json", asshat.

Pathetic posturing.

With an access badge, at least you can leak something important anonymously.

Quantum computing does not exist. The industry with it's 30 year history since Shor algorithm boasts its crown achievement of factoring the mind-blowing N=35 and creatively inflated qubit counts.

Hx is batteries included. Nvim requires installing lots of plugins that do not inspire confidence - descriptions ridden with emojis, impossible to know who maintains what. Too many vectors leading to possible compromise.

> but goroutine B (the goroutineB function) apparently never ran at all.

Untrue. Up the iterations to 1000, you'll get your interleaving. Since 1.14, goroutines are async preemptible (async safe points), and will not block the scheduler. Also, time.Sleep bad, use runtime.Gosched().
