The stone-age called, they want their languages that need header files back!
(I use Rust btw.)

Nope, it uses a protocol on top of UDP called QUIC. If you count underlying protocols further down the stack, obviously all of them are really old.
Some ancient protocols get replaced gradually though. Look at http3 not using TCP anymore. I mean at least it’s something.
FCK DSCRD!
(They should use lemmy instead :-P)
I also think it’s more descriptive. Just like blocklist and allowlist.
Hey! Don’t remove the context menu key, I use that! The alternatives are 1. using the mouse (no!) and 2. Alt+F10 which is awkward.
I think you could even get rid of the iter()
and the collect()
since it’s a small fixed size array.
Unfortunately that support would be worthless if only firefox does it.
Python is actually mostly strongly typed. Strongly (e.g. can’t use a number as a string without explicitly converting it), but dynamically (can change type of variable at runtime). You probably would prefer a statically typed language and I agree.
Yes, I can’t wait! Firefox usage will skyrocket :D
PHP is a shit language, but far from dead. There are too many legacy killer apps that are used A LOT and won’t be rewritten in a different language anytime soon. E.g. Wordpress, Mediawiki (The engine behind wikipedia and other wikis), Nextcloud, Typo3, …
The JS one is not surprising at all. There’s no other loosely typed multi-paradigm scripting language where such insane shitloads of money and developer time have been spent for optimizing its execution (by some of the largest tech companies). Kinda funny considering that the language design is complete horse shit.
Your 2nd point is really quite surprising. I also wouldn’t have thought that java would beat Go in both energy and time by that margin!
No!
apt: ok
pacman: ok
flatpak: ok
appimage: ok
built stuff from source: ok
snap: over my dead body
True, I missed that winget is now preinstalled with newer windows versions. I don’t use windows a lot though, especially not for browsing the web.
Edge is pretty good…
…for downloading Firefox.
I wouldn’t even use a proprietary browser if they’d pay me for it. Let alone a chromium based one.
This is the way!
I’ve been neutral good, chaotic good and chaotic neutral in the past and am now lawful evil. No idea what that is supposed to mean though xD
Wow, a proprietary quasi monopoly changes their business model into something extremely exploitative and hostile. I am totally surprised! Shocked even! Blimey!
Seriously, why spend years of your life learning to work with some technology that can at anytime be made instantly obsolete or impractical to use when some random asshole you don’t know decides something dumb. If there’s a FOSS alternative, always prefer that.
Seriously though, why? Is there historic reasons for that? Did they have to pay extra for more letters back in the day?
I’d say at 1000 lines it usually makes sense to extract some parts into other files. But sure, I guess most obscurities have positive aspects. On the other hand, nothing is stopping you from writing a separate file with only function signatures next to your python scripts. It’s just not required, because why would it ;)
