Imma do it this evening, so hydrate up, bud

And what would be the advantage? It wouldn’t be routable through legacy systems, and you’d run out of addresses in a couple of years again.

Crazy what other commenters are coming up with.

Those were their first tests, of course there is a high chance they won’t run on all system configurations (especially since things like WINE comparability were likely detailed later). You should try artifacts built with the current version of the format (3 IIRC) if you want to give it a fair shot.

I just tried the current redbean build on Linux AMD64, and everything worked as expected (both launching directly, and through sh). Which examples did you specifically try? Which sh version do you use (I have 5.2.26(1)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu))?

The cosmopolitan README has a section on the WINE thing, if you want to try and get it running.

No, it also works for ARM - you can even build a fat binary with an ARM -> x86 translation layer, i.e. one binary for both architectures!

I assumed it’s something parents buy for their children.

What would it do? Delete all memories of a childs parents from their brain, making them think they’ve been orphans all along?

Alternatively a depressingly realistic look at the consequences of war for non-participating children, couched in the veneer of an 80s Sci-Fi movie.

“YOUR PARENTS WILL NOT BE BACK”

I like “orphanize” - one of those things that shouldn’t be a word, but is!

Guess I’m not a programmer, because this feature has been a real god-send in my recent projects.

Return a list of cloned functional programmers with their positions translated towards positive y!

That’s not new legal precedent. Grandfather laws have been a thing for a while.

Be optimistic and try running it! What’s the worst that could happen?

I honestly think this is fearmongering. Yes, Microsoft is a shitty company that has done shitty things, but:

• the Typescript repo is licensed with Apache 2.0, which means the community can always fork it if they do bad/evil stuff
• there are competing type checkers in the works, which would fully remove any Microsoft influence from a developer using Typescript
• there already are competing compilers which are broadly used

The only real option they have to do what you’re describing is to implement new features that could be used for monetizing it - there would be some inertia regarding community forks. But even then I can’t come up with any monetization model that could make sense. Do you have a specific example in mind?

No:

$ python 
Python 3.10.13 (main, Jan 28 2024, 03:02:00) [GCC 13.2.1 20230918 (Red Hat 13.2.1-3)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def handle_foo(value: list[int]) -> bool:
...     return 42
... 
>>> print(handle_foo(False))
42

Ah, gotcha, thanks! I’d have loved a strongly-typed option.

The static typing system is slowly getting there, but many useful Python patterns can’t be expressed yet. You can, for example, write a function that appends an item to a generic tuple - but you can’t concatenate two tuples. I really hope they keep expanding on the system!

Which one? There is static typing with the typing module, but that’s not strong.

Not in my code

I sometimes use n as my loop variable (⌐■_■)
