@jkfritcher @davepl1968 @gator_gum Send them all to Greenland. 2 problems solved at once: we can add Greenland without altering the flag, and they will have a reasonable basis for statehood because of the crucial economic and strategic role the territory will play.

@DevMagister @davepl1968 @gator_gum So what you’re saying is, you feel the state of Rhode Island is too small to be a state. What state should own those people, and would the people of Rhode Island agree with you? I bet they don’t.

@darth_turnip @lauriewired This comment is bad, and you should feel bad. Separating concerns matters! Your HTML should not contain logic, let along backend logic. This is a recipe for weak static analysis tool, weak debugging workflows, spaghetti code, difficult migration.

@lauriewired The Postgres mascot, Slonik, is more better. And he represents a worthwhile stack piece!

@80sGeek @skdh Not really, the Wise have been setting the stage for this for some time now. Only a fool thinks that the “bust” part of the boom-bust cycle can be avoided, and it is unwise to try.

@skdh @80sGeek No, we need another depression. America was never stronger that after the Great Depression. Our system requires a generational reset, we do not artificially oppose reality to the point of absurdity like Europe.

@carmothy @lcamtuf @taviso Did your wife leave you for a Rustacean? He must have so much time to spend with her, not having to track ownership and lifetimes manually.

@lcamtuf @taviso Rewriting everything in Rust is retarded. I look forward to new hardware that makes it irrelevant.

The coreutils Rust rewrite story is pretty funny. Coreutils are tools like rm, mv, mkdir, etc. Unlike binutils, this isn't a fertile ground for memory safety bugs. But, the rewrite was completed, and in the spirit of progress, Canonical decided to switch. 🡇

@lcamtuf Not a big hurdle. I imagine if you got people to rewrite coreutils in C again, there would be MORE issues. The swap is still going forward in 26.10 🙂

@JohnDoritosKane @KarenPayneMVP Openai is projected to still have $14 billion losses this year A successful IPO will give them more temporary runway, but if Musk’s lawsuit is partially successful it could tank the IPO Better not to allow vendor lock-in in the first place! MS does the same thing over and over

@DevMagister @KarenPayneMVP Prices did recently skyrocket. It seems to be normalizing across the industry. To be fair, Microsoft's docs did say special Copilot pricing was for a limited time, and I enjoyed taking advantage of that.

Rather than getting in a tizzy about the cost of GitHub Copilot, consider writing code as you would before AI and use less costly models for most work.

@JohnDoritosKane @KarenPayneMVP Yes, and Claude Code can also run other models, but that is not the question. More importantly, Claude Code can also run custom in-house models (via Ollama, LM Studio, etc). With copilot, you will always be paying microsoft, and prices will soon skyrocket. Enjoy!

@DevMagister @KarenPayneMVP Copilot agent runs frontier models such as Anthropic Claude Opus 4.x like Claude Code does. Other than the cosmetic and permission prompting differences, I haven't noticed any major code quality differences when the same LLM is used no matter through which agent.

@gator_gum That's why America has Senators, with equal representation in each state. Would it be fair to make Alaska and its oil beholden to the whims of the entire nation? Like you do with Alberta, I mean?

@davepl1968 @HappyMotorhead You take that back! I loved my manual transmission diesel Jetta. The only manual where you don’t need to hit the gas pedal to move forward in 1st gear from a stop! Good luck with short on-ramps though…

I feel much better since going gluten-free, hopefully soon I'll be fully back to being annoying. But I struggle to get my daily calories together, there's only so much butter I can put on rice before it gets disgusting. Please let me know if you have suggestions... 🙏

@schteppe Therefore, languages should not default to undefined behavior, and should instead have defined behavior for most or all usage of the language.

@systemdesignone I strongly disagree. Rust’s compiler literally teaches you the language. No other language can say that. I come from a full stack web dev background, but Rust was easy. The only difficult parts are not specific to Rust: learning how memory is actually handled by hardware.

@buildwithparas @_trish_xD I learned pointers by letting Rust’s borrow checker teach me. That is a compiler’s job: tell you what is wrong.

C barely gives you anything the hardware doesn't already have. What you write is almost exactly what the CPU runs. That's where all the power (and all the danger) comes from.
