Pushing even *more

I don’t think those are the problem, but rather how they are used. And in case of managed languages like C#, it’s almost impossible to shoot yourself in the foot when it comes to memory management. You still can, if you really wish, but you have to be very explicit in that. 🤷‍♂️

Western tanks are built to protect the crew, while Soviet/Russian are built to advance regardless of anything without much consideration about crew safety (typical Soviet mentality). The turret throw is due to the shells being stored right under the crew, beneath the turret, and when those detonate (which is quite easy with modern anti tank weapons), everything is thrown magnificently into the air. Crew has no way to survive. It’s different with western tanks, where shells are stored more safely and such a hit usually doesn’t evaporate the crew.

They also throw their turrets much better when hit.

They might work, but then one is bound to be online. Also different computers might have different configurations and that is something to pay attention to as well. Alternative is a synchronisation to source (nextcloud sounds a good fit) but then you might bump to synchronisation conflicts and such. Both ways will produce a lot of traffic unless you redirect creation of build artifacts to a local directory. Which might not be always possible.

A remote machine might not be always possible, such as when you develop mobile apps or when you have more than one monitor available. Sadly all options have problems. And (auto) pushing is not an option when you work on a team project where pushing non compilable code is not a welcome option.

Let’s see, it’ll certainly be an interesting development in any scenario.

Interesting, but for the time being lets call it vaporware. It’ll be really interesting if they actually make it work.

In terms of cutting edge chip production they’re well behind - think lithography.

They have a looooong way ahead.

I think the ramifications of what Israel did will go far far beyond fear in non west countries. We entered the stage when you can’t trust your device anymore to not explode when some state (or non-state) actor would deem you disposable. Everybody should be concerned when they receive a phone call. If nothing else, it should change the way we fly - now security will annoy you with prohibiting bringing even water on airplane. What now? We should travel without any electronic device? Heck, even China didn’t go that far (west is banning their devices mostly for economic purposes even though they mimic them as ‘security’).

Yep, #metoo, though I started with terminal. I still use GUI but mostly only for visualizing history.

Just from outside you say?

C# is awesome, however it has one big issue when it comes to games - garbage collection that can start at any moment and you have no control over it. There are ways to workaround but none is 100%. OTOH from similar level languages there is Swift that does reference counting instead and doesn’t have this problem, albeit has a reference counting problem (where cyclic reference would create a memory leak, but this problem is solvable).

What can I say, I agree with you. This mixing of markup, query and general programming languages is not exactly a good comparison

I always wondered how is HTML a language… Also I see missing labels in legend.

C#/.NET supports Linux quite well and there is Avalonia for UI. Also there is a cross platform trend amongst modern languages such as Kotlin/Jetpack - not that I’m too keen on this approach.

Seems like Qualcomm is getting there. Latest generation is not bad, though battery usage seems still a not-so-brilliant (according to early reviews).

On the bright side, ARM is getting there, plus there is RISC-V that is rising as well, but it still has some road ahead.
