the logical extension is that everyone should kill themselves right now so that they never suffer again

Parallelly, it is on par for similar positions.


Just because something bad has been normalized doesn't make it appropriate, though.

You can argue that they won't find another CEO for less money. To that I would posit that they won't find another CEO from the MBA crowd for less money, but that is a feature, not a bug.


how on earth is linux being compiled for platforms without a GCC?

additionally, I believe the GCC backend is incomplete. the `core` library is able to compile, but rust's `std` cannot be.


>nor recent GCC are screwed.

Not having a recent GCC and not having GCC are different things. There may be architectures that have older GCC versions, but are no longer supported for more current C specs like C11, C23, etc.


I don't believe Rust for Linux use std. I'm not sure how much of Rust for Linux the GCC/Rust effort(s) are able to compile, but if it was "all of it" I'm sure we'd have heard about it.


Purchasing drugs


I think a lot more important for understanding crypto is learning the first bitcoin was minted in January 2009, months off of the heel of the Lehman Brothers filing for bankruptcy, and more notably the "start" of the 2008 financial crisis


Anti-Americanism was well underway by that point. I think the impetus from both distrust in the American government and in Wall St really gave crypto the runway.


Unfortunately, I really doubt long rust's "forever" will last in the wake of the `time` crate controversy. I can't see like a lot of good options in that place from the perspectives of the rust-std maintainers, but it might've just been worth it to wait for a new edition or similar.


Why do you believe that's going to have some sort of lasting effect on Rust?


I don't believe it'll have "lasting" effect on rust, but I think it rather shows what rust maintainers will do, if put into a similar situation again.


"Telly" [1] is a real 55" TV that is available for free. It is designed to always, constantly be running advertisements.

> To reserve a Telly, you must agree to use the device as the main TV in your home, constantly keep it connected to the internet, and regularly watch it. If the company finds that you violate these rules, Telly will ask you to return the TV (and charge a $1,000 fee if you don’t send it back).

This reads like a really bad Black Mirror episode. Holy hell.


extremely high comorbidity rates


notably, Blackrock doesn't actually have any stake in housing. Plenty of other private equity firms do, of course.


I think transpiling to C is probably the least interesting way to tap into C. FFI is a lot valuable (and doable).


There are surprisingly many languages that support transpiling to C: Python (via Cython), Go (via TinyGo), Lua (via eLua), Nim, Zig, Vlang. The main advantage (in my view) is to support embedded systems, which might not match your use case.


Eiffel, that is how it always worked, a VM based workflow for development (Melt VM), compilation via C or C++ for release builds.
