A big difference between working in Go or Rust vs. some of the languages on the dreaded list has nothing to do with the specifics of the language syntax. Instead, the difference is the tooling and supporting ecosystem. "Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity."

I've long wondered if it's because so many hardcore advocates of new languages swear by CLIs and denigrate IDEs.

The FBI lost over 200 computers and other items such as night-vision scopes last year, according to internal records obtained by Motherboard. If only they had some investigators that would find them
Do they keep leaving them in taxis?

"lost"... yeah, right.

Chinese Wikipedia had a robust collection of detailed and authoritative articles on medieval Russia, thanks to a user called Zhemao who claimed to be the daughter of a diplomat assigned in the country. You mean scotch wasn't invented by a little old lady from Leningrad?

This is why wikipedia can never be used as source documentation for research.

Rate limiting provides a way to protect a resource in order to avoid overwhelming your app and keep traffic at a safe level. Sometimes you have to say enough is enough

Could we use that to limit the rate of unneeded or trashy new created apps too?

Even with our humble, earthbound eyes, we can still observe the difference in image quality and details the telescopes produce. Someone's going to have lens-envy
And I'm sure someone's already done a version or fifteen of the "guy with girlfriend, checking out other lady" meme for these two.

Microsoft is shifting to a new engineering schedule for Windows which will see the company return to a more traditional three-year release cycle for major versions of the Windows client, while simultaneously increasing the output of new features shipping to the current version of Windows on the market. The next last version of Windows may be a while

Or maybe someone decided that the OS would look better if they replaced all the Icons once every 3 years instead of updating a randomly selected 1/3 every year. 🤔
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You don't have to stop using that spelling, but as they've copyrighted the dollar sign, you have to pay them royalties.
