This is known as PNS Syndrome.

sync.Map?
Re:Next-generation of GPS satellites are headed to space on Tuesday December 18, 2018 @07:08AM (#18705920)
Well, yes, that's true. But my point was that they aren't going to change the legacy nav data structure.

Erm, they aren’t going to change the nav data.

Maybe there’s a reason this is a “not-mentioned” point.

All GPS satellites are in a geosynchronous orbit.

Geosynchronous is the word you’re looking for.

Re:Why Rust closures are somewhat hard on Tuesday September 11, 2018 @02:46AM (#17957632)
Having a pointer to a stack variable is fine, as long as the stack variable lives longer than the closure.
Re:Why Rust closures are somewhat hard on Monday September 10, 2018 @05:10PM (#17955241)
Why should Rust “just compile this” when it’s clearly bad code?
That animation clearly shows they are geosynchronous?

clang-fmt?
Re:Goreuse: Generic Code for Go on Saturday February 03, 2018 @05:13PM (#16299988)
So it basically just monomorphises?
Re:Introduction to WebAssembly: why should we care? on Tuesday December 19, 2017 @05:01PM (#15964794)
You can do all that with JS too. Wasm adds nothing extra. It's perfectly sensible to imagine wasm applications targeting the DOM (which it can do via JS, and will do natively in later releases) just like JS applications do now.
Re:Introduction to WebAssembly: why should we care? on Tuesday December 19, 2017 @04:58PM (#15964767)
The point is that wasm doesn't change this; wasm won't make it 'worse'.
Re:Zero-cost futures in Rust on Friday August 12, 2016 @03:42AM (#12273953)
You can write it both ways. t.method() is the same as T::method(t).
Re:Computer Language Benchmarks Game – Rust vs. Go on Tuesday December 23, 2014 @06:45PM (#8790843)
Rust uses LLVM, which does all the optimisation. Go generates the machine code itself and its optimisation is pretty weak compared to LLVM.
Re:Swift Performance: Too Slow for Production on Wednesday December 10, 2014 @08:18AM (#8728974)
Why not profile and see where the time is actually going? Slow JSON parsing? Slow I/O?
Re:OS X Yosemite on Thursday October 16, 2014 @02:39PM (#8466571)
Same with the UK store.

I think he/she meant the GC pauses were never longer than 100ms.

And people don't do this in "real life" too?
Awful video. I could barely hear what the guy was saying. And the few hundred panning shots with peeling bananas and spreading cream cheese on bread was bizarre.

It might be a decent product though!

It doesn't have to be binary. Just use it less if you don't want to. Use it more if you want to.

You make it sound like we've figured out how to write imperative large programs in a readable way.

Re:Why I Won't Switch To Go from Node.js on Friday March 28, 2014 @07:23AM (#7486456)
Honest question. Why do people write posts like these?

I would never buy anything from an online stored that used this.
Re:Updated benchmark: capnproto-rust vs. c++ on Thursday January 16, 2014 @03:19AM (#7068593)
Why? (Genuinely curious...)
Re:Rust 0.9 released on Friday January 10, 2014 @07:49AM (#7036333)
2 threads can't access the same variable in Rust without unsafe{}. I think, anyway...
Re:Go 1.3+ Compiler Overhaul on Thursday December 19, 2013 @04:05AM (#6933592)
If they wanted every language feature, they'd use C++

Yes.
