Don‘t forget Open Closed.
There are good reasons to phase out nuclear (which was supported by all major political parties, a decision of the vast majority not only the green party).
E.g. usually, the proponents ignore the risks.
The day before Fukushima they would have said, Tchernobyl cannot happen here.
The next castastrophe comes always from a direction nobody anticipated.
In the 2010s CDU in Germany delayed modernizing the german power grid by a huge amount which the greens could not catch up entirely during their recent term in the government (as part of a difficult coalition).
This power grid is now a bottleneck to install and use intelligently more solar, wind and batteries (new solar already compensated for the phase out of the last 3 nuclear power plants in the early 2020s).
CDU is again in power and again doing counterproductive measures to slow down modernization of the energy system.
There is no need for nuclear but for faster modernization of the grid and for more renewable energy production and storage capacities.
Recently, Qualcomm acquired Modular/Mojolang/Chris Lattner et. al..
AFAIK ‚let‘ was removed from the language, for me it‘s a big turn-off that the Python compatibility aspect has such a high priority.
Or did I overlook something?
I agree, makes me wonder if anybody is actually thinking in that company.
I didn't find a solution to read in a .png-file and iterate over the rows and in every row over the columns, is the low level stuff somehow hidden?
Found some higher level stuff libraries here and there, but if it's not easy to do some low level operations, the language would be useless for me.
Maybe you want to try out Assembler programming/assembler-alike-freedom
or write your own prog lang
I agree, UI and usability design look amateurish to me.
It is time for me to look for a better alternative, their speed of improvement in above mentioned areas is just one big disappointment.
AI exists, but not necessarily Artificial Intelligence.
Until this is done, you could just give your visitors the download links you used to download the frameworks.
Doesn't seem to me overly complicated.
maybe they mean 12 with base 3, that would be 5 decimal years ;-)
what do I learn from that?
I will not talk with a Microsoft representative before they pay me at least 5000 US$ consulting fees.
Never give them something for free, not one minute of my precious lifetime.
They seem to me as 'friendly' as the aliens in the "Mars attacks" movie.
Maximum RAM is 16 GB, that is not, what I would consider future proof for 5-6 years.
It has LOOP and EXIT, I remember that turned out to be the most used repetition construct when I was using (IIRC) JPI Modula-2.
For me, it was so easy to think about loops that way, with an EXIT/condition in the middle of the loop body.
highly unlikely, so unlikely, that it’s
not worth discussing IMHO.
OTH, Elon ...
maybe believing that you can game the system helps sometimes ... (significantly)
if humankind (best minds) is not able to build something better in every aspect today, we as a species are on the wrong trail and should change.
We already need to change a lot (carbon free and many other problem areas) and like the Apollo program was a challenge for engineering we could start an effort in the domains of architecture and arts (and maybe others) to build something better, spiritual etc. ...
I see a bike much more than a metro (passengers have almost no control) as a 'freedom-' (you can ride wherever you want) and an 'expression-of-my-will-' (when to ride and where to ride to) device.
It's not only the benefit of physical exercise which often makes riding a bike more enjoyable.
I think that is self contradictory.
Chances of getting decent customer support by Google seems to me like a lottery.
Please act accordingly and don‘t make business with such an entity.
No coin without flipside:
"... Er war - für die Bundesrepublik in dieser Form bis heute einmalig - der intellektuelle Gegenentwurf zum Kanzler, und er hat diese Rolle auch gerne angenommen. Im privaten Leben war er zwar oft unbeherrscht, hochfahrend und anmaßend. Untergebene schurigelte er zuweilen aus nichtigem Anlass. Doch seine öffentlichen Auftritte inszenierte Weizsäcker untadelig. ..."
