Myron Dombrowski wrote: especially smaller ones - haven’t really understood and embraced the benefits of internal code reuse
There is at least one formal study that demonstrated that no one, doesn't matter the size, does that effectively unless they specifically reward the developers for that. For example actually measuring the code reused in new apps that come from existing libraries and using that as a specific factor on performance reviews.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Quote: I got the sense long ago that "form generators" and report generators represented "code-less" programming; which are mostly counter-intuitive and represent a steep learning curve (see Q&A).
I dunno, the approach that Delphi and C++ builder took was a very maintainable approach; I've never got the feeling that it way a one-way generation with no way for the programmer to change it. Might be something there.
At any rate, it's funny that you should post this now; I am reading it as I am in the middle of a personal project which does code generation . I'll find this thread and post a link when I am done in about 3 weeks.

I've worked with Delphi, Paradox, etc. but it's not a "code-less" tool for a "user".
Like cryptocurrency, "code-less" is intended to appeal to those that don't know any better.
I think in the context it's being pushed, it implies "no code" and not "less code". (The fine print)

looks like in some time a large number of organizations will adopt this way. i don't mean completely abolishing programmers, but rather using automation aided coders.
you apply for work in some corporation and they tell you, it is required to use this automated framework that writes the code and you just fill in the blanks if any or make some corrections.

The "coders" can still assemble all the (code-less) widgets in the wrong order. Sort of like they do with language object classes ... but now marketed as user-friendly programming.

I got the vaccine, too, but there's no 5G service yet in my neighbourhood

Agreed, but making fun of idiots has always been allowed, providing it's not carried too far.

Yes, but what's idiotic is often in the eye of the beholder. If I trolled about all the things I think are idiotic, my account would get closed mighty fast.

Same way the human population got aids from other hominids. You culture a vaccine for anything that usually infects sheep in a human infected with Covid-19 then inject it into sheep until one or more is infected with covid-19.

My entertainment laptop which used to be my mainstream machine, an Acer Aspire 19" running Win 10 Pro, had a problem of an inadequately cooled GPU. In the summer it would frequently just lock-up - frozen screen, nothing working, so a power switch long press needed. It always happened when the GPU was working hard, but the CPU temperature never went above 78°C - well within bounds for a Core i7 - and usually ran at around 65°C.
Now, it is happening at modest room temperatures when the GPU should be doing nothing - static screen, no apps running, just either Edge or Chrome streaming music over the headphone socket, with HDMI disabled.
I use Malwarebytes Pro, free courtesy of my bank, and when I installed their Browser Guard it found a couple of dodgy extensions in both browsers, which it deleted, and everything was fine for that evening, but the next day the problem was back.
It rather looks as if I've been hacked. Unfortunately, being an older machine, Task Manager does not show GPU activity like it does on my newer laptop.
Does the CP hivemind know if there's anyway of finding what is accessing the GPU - and, more importantly - how to stop it?
Pretty please - it's driving me crazy!

GPU heating ... doesn't that usually mean cryptojacking?
You could try booting to safe mode and see if it goes away - if it does, then something is using the GPU and crypto is a good bet. Reinstalling the OS is the best way I know to get rid of nasties like that ...
Or it could be that the heat paste on the GPU (do they use that on lappies?) is breaking down and it just doesn't have enough cooling any more!
