this is true but also the entire economy will explode anyway
every rando I see is "lol this is PR" while every security professional I know is withdrawing their money from banks and burying gold in their back yard while prepping bug out bags
was frantically trying to get this paper ready to submit today and the submission system crashed so now the deadline has been extended to "1 day after whenever the system comes back online" π
βthe developers, who made this project, know it intimately, and have taken on the responsibility of maintaining it, donβt owe you anything! But YOU (the end user) owe US some improvements for daring to engage with it and levy criticisms against itβ
THIS IS WHY IT WILL NEVER BE THE YEAR OF LINUX
I can't stop thinking about all the scifi novels I read growing up that would question if using a particular technology or augmentation would result in someone "losing their humanity". Now I live in a world where I am dehumanized by humans who never had any humanity to lose in the first place.

Every invasion of privacy by the govt and tech will be done in the name of "protecting children" and will be carried out by people who regularly harm them without remorse

I am extremely alarmed that we have jumped straight to "AIs are superhuman at finding bugs" because this means we are in the timeline where AIs can break things faster than anyone can fix them. mtlynch.io/claude-code-...

You could certainly try, you would end up with something similar to AssemblyScript but with inferred types, and error if it couldn't infer the type... which would be almost immediately, sadly. The problem with just running the code is that there's no way to ensure you've explored all codepaths.
I wish I could work faster but the fact that I've avoided burnout for decades is probably a testament to how well I know my limits.
Node.js and react-native already get as close as you realistically can to contorting javascript into a "native" esque UI, and it still doesn't work very well, and they still have to ship an entire web browser runtime anyway.
Unfortunately it is VERY hard to "compile" javascript because it has runtime type information that cannot be deduced at compile time. Typescript gets as close as it can, but it still has a fallback "any" type when javascript is doing weird stuff, which it does an alarming amount of the time.
My pixel shader was crashing my program, so I went through the code and fixed a bug. Now it crashes my entire GPU and Windows has to reboot the graphics driver.
I added that to my site and vouched for you =:3

I bought the literal smallest fucking phone I could find that still had the features I needed and I only had about 4 phones to choose from and they're still bigger than I want.
ROCKET WENT UPPIES!!!!!!!

after 20 years of software development I think I finally found a situation where I actually need to encode something using reverse polish notation
