Serious question: Django doesn't even have lazy loading. Why do people use it? Am I missing something? No way I'd wait a few seconds to get something big from the db

Re:Moving from Go to PHP Again on Friday February 08, 2019 @08:30AM (#19113911)
100% agree. The syntax of languages such as php, c++ and rust just look ugly af. The use of $ and :: piss me off the most
oh right, even though he also lied to court they suspended the procecution. Good old democratic germany
The greece part was nothing but blackmail anyway. Hundreds of thousands, possibly millions are worse off in greece just because schäuble.

If greece were governed by a right wing party, I'm sure he'd have been most generous. Germany put pressure on them to get rid of the leftists.

>it makes no sense to single out VW.

merely giving an example that fits this thread (automotive).

Not to mention that germany did absolutely fucking nothing against VW when dieselgate happened. Still waiting to see Winterkorn & friends under the guillotine for scamming the entire world.

What happened instead? Normal engineers got blamed instead of executives. Fucking capitalism and fucking CDU, SPD and FDP. The sole reason for their existence is to sack money from lobbyists.

When you have people like Schäuble, a piece of shit that was convicted for corruption in 1999, who was the minister of finance for the past couple of years in germany, it makes sense that germany does nothing against big corporate.

Wasn't that rather the helicopter noise? Either way it was a stupid decision to include audio. Nearly blew my ears off
Re:What Cafés Did for Liberalism on Wednesday December 19, 2018 @11:30AM (#18716799)
wat? If they are the same, then why do they have different names? Get a grip. Social democrats have nothing to do with socialists.
Re:What Cafés Did for Liberalism on Wednesday December 19, 2018 @10:15AM (#18716117)
Then again you are using the North American definition for left and socialist, because the North American liberals are neither of those two.

Edit: to be fair though, I wouldn't consider liberals of any definition to be left or socialist. They might have some left leaning positions on immigration or the environment, but due to their capitalist nature they can not be considered left.

Re:Using D to Create the World’s Fastest File System on Wednesday December 05, 2018 @06:27AM (#18607345)
that's just nitpicking. I bet you can find equally ugly examples in the other 2 languages. My point is that "standard" code is infinitely more readable than either c++ or rust.
Re:Using D to Create the World’s Fastest File System on Wednesday December 05, 2018 @04:48AM (#18606913)
Here's the thing though: They wrote a new compiler and a new standard library to make the language work for them. How exactly is that good publicity for D?

D itself looked and still looks very interesting to me, as it can be very performant, without having insanely ugly syntax such as c++ or rust (inb4 rUsT iS VeRy ReADaBlE).

Agree. He mentioned 23andMe waaaaaaaay too many times for this not to be an ad.
