Ah, yes that makes sense.
I have a small aluminum tray with rocks that I put on the oven floor. After heating up the oven, I put in the loaf, pour a bit of water on the rocks and quickly close the door. That works fine for me.

When exactly? And what is that supposed to do?
Of course, but I’m not productive in it.
If I have to do everything myself, it will take more time to get it done. The trade-off is of course always control/speed vs convenience, but C is definitely too inconvenient for me.
Not that limited. Limited means an old thin client, not a microcontroller. I already set up a small web server on a pi pico with mpy, so it’s quite impressive. But from what I understand, the interop with “MacroPython” is not that great.
Did you use mpy for x86 devices? Are the limitations worth it?
But that would mean either using Graal/native image or going full Scala, right?
I only used Scala for Gatling, where it’s obviously very java-y.
There’s nothing to really grow. It’s mostly just small helpers. Aggregate sensor data, pull data from A and push it to B every hour, a small dashboard, etc.
C is too involved for my case , I want to be productive after all.
Rust is already rather low level, though there are some cool looking frameworks.
Train nerds are a weird bunch.
Please never change.
Just to play devil’s advocate: Mario is without a doubt the oldest recognizable character that still has some modern appearances. You can’t really take pong and some shitty mobile game as a comparison.
That’s not what I mean.
This company is a scheme to finance Trump’s campaign from foreign sources. The foreign investors are “suckers”, in the sense that they lost money on their investment, but they still achieved their goal: funneling money to Trump.
All the retail investors and MAGA heads are just collateral damage.
Not “unfortunately”, but rather “exactly as intended”.
This entire business is essentially a money laundering scheme.
What frightens me about all of that is how many people don’t see through that bullshit. It’s so extremely obvious how full of shit these demagogues are, but millions of people applaud for that.
Here in Germany we had state elections. On the “anniversary” of the invasion of Poland ⅓ voted for an openly right-wing extremist party, and 10-15% for a party that basically claims to combine the national with the social, both parties are supported by Russia. It’s insane.
That’s the funny (or sad) thing with almost all of those free speech enthusiasts. They don’t want free speech, but exclusively freedom for their speech.
and I could make a death ray out of my home wifi box and a wok.
I mean, you could. Do you happen to have a small nuclear reactor and about 400l of liquid helium?
It’s absolutely not inherently wrong or implausible to assume that the constant and rather direct exposure over decades causes cancer.
Old timey radio operators definitely died earlier. They had much higher cancer rates. Granted, completely different levels of radiation, but radiation damage is stochastic. If there is an effect at all, it will cause thousands of new cases even low doses simply because we have like 7 billion phone users.
Doing proper studies on that is hard, but absolutely necessary.
Well, obviously, you just have to put a sticker with a geometric pattern on it to turn the bad radiation into good radiation!
(I wish that was a joke, but you can actually buy those)
Of course it is like that. You’re saying that the complaint is wrong because the author doesn’t know the history, and now you accuse me of not understanding you, because I pointed this out.
If you have to accuse everyone of “not understanding”, maybe you’re the one who doesn’t understand.
It’s easy to criticize something when you don’t understand the needs and constraints that led to it.
And that assumption is exactly what led us to the current situation.
It doesn’t matter, why the present is garbage, it’s garbage and we should address that. Statements like this are the engineering equivalent of “it is what it is shrug emoji”.
Take a step back and look at the pile of overengineered yet underthought, inefficient, insecure and complicated crap that we call the modern web. And it’s not only the browser, but also the backend stack.
Think about how many indirections and half-baked abstraction layers are between your code and what actually gets executed.
That’s what the post above mine meant by there not being a positive manliness.
Progressive manliness is described as a substraction from the old ideal. We simply have not yet formed a positive, progressive male identity.
And when people started writing books instead of memorizing epic poems.
