The Anglo-Saxon migrations made England English, and then the waves of Viking invasions littered North Germanic vocabulary all over it. You can see it in doublets like skirt/shirt that aren't in other West Germanic…
Great when it works. Too many senders will only deliver to widely used hosts, and silently fail for anything outside their tiny allowlist. Note that I'm not even talking about trying to send email FROM a self-hosted…
Rather than downvoting you, I will speak up to say I don't see what you're seeing. Spaces around hyphens, yeah, sure, but LLMs prefer em dashes, and even that is unreliable, because it's borrowed from habits that real…
Intel Macs were always a second class citizen for Blender. There was a lot you couldn't do because the GPU drivers just didn't allow it. They actually announced they were dropping support in February. Nobody noticed or…
...Except on websites that override this to make those links open in the current tab, or just silently fail. On the modern web, the menu is more reliable.

I would be surprised to see it high in the rankings before it establishes certain backward compatibility guarantees.

You mean a borrow checker? That exists, but not for Odin.
This already sounds like every independent coffee shop I've been to in the continental US.

If they continued to carry any of the games that were singled out for removal by Visa and Mastercard, they would not be able to accept credit card payments for anything else in their store. This same drama has played…
Wizards wave their hands and say something like, "Whatever, space is an ocean." The Expanse makes the observation that accelerating your ship at a substantial fraction (or multiple) of Earth gravity gives you that same…
HBO, wasn't it?
I'm continually disappointed they didn't decide to call it "reinstinction."

There continues to be a vocal contingent of commenters (both here on HN, and elsewhere) who patiently listen to one side of the argument but put no stock whatsoever in what the R4L maintainers and contributors have to…
Memory safety is not about memory leaks. It's concerned with the corruption of data structures, particularly the stack and the heap. To elaborate a little, consider security. If your software's only vulnerability is…

The complexity of natural human languages comes in different forms, but as a general rule, whenever you see something that's built into another language and "missing" from your own, you can express it by using more…
Similarities like these, especially with Latin in the mix, were the clue that originally put early linguists on the scent of the IE language family several centuries ago. Since then, extensive research has been done…
You're most likely to hear it from kernel programmers and Go/Zig/Odin advocates, but it rarely comes up as a criticism of C++ in particular. Perhaps that's because RAII is merely "distasteful" in that cohort, whereas…
Some of them have software controls for hardware behavior (like optical sensor polling rate and scroll wheel clutch mode) that no OS has built-in support for, because these features are not part of the USB HID standard.
