Ish.

I would not trust C++ for safety-critical work as MISRA can only limit features, it can't add support for contracts.

There have been other dialects of C++ - Aspect-Oriented C++ and Feature-Oriented C++ being the two that I monitored closely. You can't really do either by using subsetting, regardless of mechanism.

IMHO, it might be easier to reverse the problem. Instead of having specific subsets for specific tasks, where you drill down to the subset you want, have specific subsets for specific mechanisms where you build up to the feature set you need.

Oh, absolutely. These days, I spend so much time checking the output from computers, it would normally have been quicker to do searches by hand. This is... not useful.

I can fully understand that.

Doesn't America hate Americans?

Billionares go all in on flying cars.

MS Office!

Don' switch to one of these open source things like the Nordics are doin.

Yeah, wasn't it in a James Blish or Kurt Vonnegut story?

And the lunch boxes released durning the summer.

Where's all the Breaking Bad and Game Of Thrones tin lunchboxes with major scenes impressed in steel and enamel?!!

I try to view it (for prestige shows) as 8-10 film quality shows (4-5 movies) but when they do the short seasons for basic comedies, yeah, that feels cheap.

And then there's the British weird season stuff; 4-6 episodic episodes and then a year or two later, another 4-6 episodes, going on for 2 decades or so. Thinking of Jonathon Creek and Poirot.

Seems like 'Watercooler cooler' tv peaked with GoT and every other attempt (WestWorld, Rings of Power, Succession, etc) has generated some buzz but nothing near peak GOT S3-S4.

And now that it turns out there's no lasting economy of scale with subscription tv (wait for full season to drop, subscribe for a month to watch, cancel), I doubt there will be many more big-budget shows in the future, at least until business models change again. Apple, Amazon, and Netflix (to a lesser degree) subsidize their shows but I feel that's going to be ending in the next few years.

I mean, in Star Trek, you never see more than a few hundred people at a time. That's the future, right? RIGHT?!!

One Man sitting on a pile of 8 billion plus skulls, secure in the knowledge that he has WON.

And everyone just has to work 2 - 4 jobs.

The tech-brahs never mention the pay being increased to make up for less time worked.

This guy is ready:
