In UK, was redirected to russia today. Cannot recall which domain(s).
Tax breaks, operations of state owned industry, other incentives etc are guided by five year plans implemented by a party bureaucracy.
If the size of state and bureaucratisation are the main issues, one wonders how China got so far :-)
I know enough about Unix that shipping an outdated binary in the base system is entirely unsurprising :-)
macOS switched to zsh a while ago. i don’t see what that minor choice has to do with being or not being UNIX.
OpenAI aren’t using their cloud directly, but have signed data center partnerships with them that are effectively huge amounts of debt not backed up with revenue. That’s all liability that Google doesn’t really have…

What exactly does “one shot” mean here?
windows 11 for ARM, as bad of an OS it is in many aspects, is an incredible experience for backwards compatibility. I can run a 32 bit game built for windows xp in parallels and not have to think much.
herb sutter and the c++ community as a whole have put a lot of energy into improving the language and reducing UB; this has been a primary focus of C++26. they are not encouraging people to “churn out more broken…
