Many want to use rust.
Oh yeah? How many? You lack the ability to quantify it, but you pretend that you have the ability.
Once again drinkypoo goes to great lengths to expose his stupidity for the world to see with another uninformed, idiotic Slashdot post.
Oh look, whoever you are. Nobody knows you.
The 90s and early 2000s was the peak of automotive engineering in the USA
And American cars were still shit. If you RTFA I linked you'll see that the best of the 90s and 2000s were not what was destroyed.
Now go off to cry to someone else about your tiny penis, you will not be missed.
He wasn't the one pissing himself to flee Bagram though, was he?
As an exercise, just try to develop your own code to support https fully and correctly - including common add-ons as Digest and OAuth security - you must depend upon a library to do that.
OAuth isn't an HTTP extension, it's an OSI application level protocol. Also, of all the protocols you could have picked, OAuth is a really simple one. You could code a custom implementation in an afternoon. HTTP isn't even so bad, even with the HTTP/2 modifications, you could definitely do it yourself, depending on your reading comprehension ability (reading code standards is not a skill every programmer has).
The built-in functions for Javascript (and their typical runtime environment - the browser) are minimal leading to a lot of dependence upon 3rd-party libraries.
Ever since most of JQuery functionality got added to the Javascript standard library, you mostly don't need third party libraries. Something like React can be useful if you are working on a web app with a large team because it gives you encapsulation, but even then, the number of third party library dependencies is small enough that a security team can review them all, which some companies do.
We're already in a second civil war. It was started by the left years ago.
We never finished the first one. The losers were allowed to keep their flags and their guns. Instead of trying to be one big happy country we should have freed all the Africans and enslaved the Southerners, since they love slavery so much. Then we could have them picking fruit right now.
In fact, a significant percentage of them will probably get Windows 11 installed on them using the bypasses...
If that's the case, why won't the current owners just do that? Are we too stupid/lazy/rich to do that
Mostly too rich. There are potential problems we don't want to deal with, and will pay to avoid it.
so they can be used by people that get their power from coal-fired power plants and run native language OS versions with English keyboards?
They can probably get local character set equipped key caps from China.
... I'm more concerned about how *astonishingly* fucking stupid Google as an organization must be that nobody along the way from dev to testing to implementation apparently considered this?
This isn't me writing some macro in Excel that doesn't work. This is Google. 50? 100?
How do you not see this for the obvious publicity stunt that it is? You must have voted Trump.
But it worked, you got enraged and engaged with the content.
Congratulations, you're the problem with the internet today.
Oh, and I am aware of the irony of posting a reply in order to condemn it, so you needn't bother pointing that out.
Closed world is like ethe transmission in a traditional car. All of the parts are created to exacting standards and fit together only one way. Transmissions are not user serviceable. Any modifications to the transmission likely degrade its functionality.
People can and do service their own transmissions, in particular doing a fluid and filter change is generally a pretty easy job. There are also modifications and upgrades to transmissions. You can buy "built" transmissions which include heavy duty parts which can handle larger power, torque, and/or shock loads than stock ones. There are "kits" of aftermarket parts which either address wear over time or even correct design deficiencies like either lazy or excessive engagement of clutches.
He's talking about the money already spent and spending right now. Just the build out investments, given we're talking about trillions of dollars, must be boosting the economy.
What's the measurement? If it's "GDP" then sure, the economy is booming. But GDP is itself meaningless to sustainability, which is the most important thing to measure in anything you hope to keep doing. If you want to keep having an economy, for example, you have to keep having consumers who have money so they can participate in it...
