Celebrate, celebrate my friend ! This will enable 10K consumer TVs which I can buy for 500€ and use as my main monitor for opening 10 terminals (or whatever) simultaneously.
The higher the level of abstraction in your language, the higher the overhead it will create. Now, it needn't be so absolutely stupidly overengineered as
Nope. Rust is a so called zero-cost abstraction language. What this means is you can pile layers of niceness to have clear and understandable code, and the generated code will be as good as if it had been hand-coded, manually unrolled.
Getting rid of C/C++ isn't just for the fun of it. Language designers have done some real progress since a few years. Nowadays you can have beautiful and efficient code.
Rust and Go, yeah doubt there's a single company of any size running their business processes on either.
You didn't even check before posting. Go is used at many companies, and even the younger Rust makes some money: https://www.rust-lang.org/en-U...

Microsoft: While Windows machines are generally considered safe, the Redmond giant isn't taking any chances and has released a security fix available through automatic updates.

The Amiga could scroll a "screen" vertically with zero tearing (and very little effort), because it was just updating a memory pointer during a horizontal retrace interval.
Yes but no. If you had used CygnusEd (a text editor), you'd knew what's it like to have frame-perfect "kinetic" smooth scrolling even under CPU load. And scrolling text in a window is a little bit more complex than just updating a pointer.
Electric scooters are awesome. They're reliable, cheap, and in some cases, less polluting than simply walking to your destination (assuming a Western diet, anyway).
It depends. I live in the mountains, some people in my village tried electric scooters and they all blew their motor after a while. Apparently these electric scooters (all brands) can't support climbing 800m each and every day (whereas classic motorbikes and electric bikes have no problem).
If a woman has a partner 10+ years older than her, chances are he's rich enough to afford those extra rounds.
I'm exactly 10 years older than my SO, that smart gorgeous girl and mother of my lovely daughter, and rest assured she didn't choose me for my wealth.
A question though, do those commonly found USB-A ports at coffee shops, university desks, at airports and on long distance trains, coaches and aeroplanes draw enough current to charge a laptop with a USB-A to C cable?
Nope. USB-C is a complex beast, and if you want high-power charging you need devices on both ends of the cable to support the USB Power Delivery protocol, and of course be able to deliver or receive high power.
