I’d be happy with the destruction of copyright and patent laws.

Glad Nvidia has seen the writing on the walls and isn’t treating desktop Linux like a second-class citizen.

What’s funny is Java solved an issue that is pretty much non-existent in today’s environment: compatibility.

It’s much less like the Wild West these days. People have a clearer picture of what to support, how to support it, and generic tools to abstract platform-specific code.

I like Java. I think they did good things and had a pragmatic approach to the problems they were trying to solve.

But time goes on, and this young discipline progresses fast. It’ll be interesting to see decades from now what languages survive and which ones don’t.

I predict as time goes on, we’ll get fewer big languages (popular, widespread, useful, etc.) and they will stick around for much longer.

Kind of like human language, if you think about it.

I don’t really thing the security ‘guarantees’ of rust matter that much.

I think it’s a better language to work in than C or C++, though. That’s not a reason to change utilities now, but a larger Rust ecosystem is always better in my humble opinion.

What for?

Personally, I’m a huge fan in unifying software under one language.

I think that’s fair.

Eventually, the Rust-alternatives will be battle-hardened too and we can simply choose what suits us best.

It’s a good time for software, honestly.

Most big companies have feedback channels for customers on their websites.

What company are you talking about in particular?

If people weren’t anti-Zionists before, they are now.

Great job, censors!

Eh. If this surprises anyone then you must be new to the world.

It’s a fad that will pass with time.

Tribalists are even worse.

Really?

Why is it man is the default and not human? ‘Man’ exists in both ‘man, woman, and human.’ Why even assume the default is male when talking about a fireman? (aside from the fact firemen have historically been male)

Really?

I guess it depends on what you consider to be a ‘movement.’

Yikes.

Talk about a slippery slope.

Modern journalism: telling us rather than showing us.

You don’t have to consent to kiss to be kissed, lol.

A more accurate comparison would be if I punched someone in the street and claimed I was just sparring with them. It wasn’t a sparring, it was assault.

No, that’s a willfully-inaccurate comparison. Why are you changing the word punch to spar? Lol.

You don’t have to be sparring to punch someone just like you don’t need consent to kiss someone. An unconsensual kiss is sexual assault, but it’s still a kiss. In court, you’re not going to be saying “he sexually assaulted her” and then leave it at that. How did he sexually assault her? Oh yeah, he kissed her lol.

Funny watching you people try to distort the meaning of language to fit your agenda. All it does is make you look desperate, though.

Who cares?

Just wanna dispel the notion that people only do things for money: you’re posting on Lemmy right now.

I’m not glad he’s dead, but I’m glad he’s gone.

Copyright and patent laws need to die.
