Java applets and flash were an absolute security nightmare of the highest degree.
You were just running applications on your computer.
If you had to download and run an application on your computer to view a website now people would lose their minds (and rightly so)
They aren’t all hype. They are amazing technology.
A lot of the software built with them is completely just hype though.
It’s not even the correct definition of an algorithm.
Scaled absolutely. Works really well. We have a pr ci pipeline. And cd set up on the trunk. Everything is PRed before being merged to the trunk.
As it’s all 1s in binary you can overwrite any character by doing an or with DEL
We have a piece of legacy software and we have to replace certain symbols in text values as there’s manual SQL construction everywhere and none of it uses parameters.
I love dependency injection personally.
I managed to completely change how YARP routed requests by registering a single interface.
The flexibility it provides is awesome. And it makes testing so much easier.
If I had to guess I’d say the email address was sent as part of the request and not verified.

They are also used by non profit organisations so…
Some people are scared by the power of the mouse and prefer to press 100s of keys and pretend it’s more efficient.
You clearly haven’t lol
// Make optional of type Option<i32>
let optional = Some(7);
match optional {
Some(i) => {
println!("This is a really long string and `{:?}`", i);
// ^ Needed 2 indentations just so we could destructure
// `i` from the option.
},
_ => {},
// ^ Required because `match` is exhaustive. Doesn't it seem
// like wasted space?
};
I think the rust book gives a good example. The match syntax is just a waste here.
So if you have a single expression that you want to match I think it is worth it.
As with most syntax, the more you read it the more you’ll just spot it without thinking.
You could say our brain does the same. It just trains in real time and has much better hardware.
What are we doing but applying things we’ve already learnt that are encoded in our neurons. They aren’t called neural networks for nothing
LLMs are in a position to make boring NPCs much better.
Once they can be run locally at a good speed it’ll be a game changer.
I reckon we’ll start getting AI cards for computers soon.
It’s just one of those secret rules that we all pickup and use when it’s our first language.
Like the order of adjectives.

Maybe non native speaker. If you add “alone” in there it sounds fine.
It’s higher than machine code. It’s degrees of highness. Any abstraction technically makes it high level.
