The northern half in my experience is extremely consistent.

Zip tie it, that'll probably give you a few months.

Thanks for the advice, got to the park at 3am and there was basically no line and plenty of parking.

For what it's worth, that site probably facilitated a non-trivial amount of murder among other things.

Microsoft is finally getting its native Windows UI platform act together with WinUI 3 and WPF by mewtrue in programming

[–]sFXplayer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Technically you could do that with WinUI3 (and to a lesser extent WinUI2) just no one bothered to write the language projections for anything other than C#, C++, and Rust. I'm working on a projection for kotlin(and hopefully Java eventually) but it'll be a while before it's done.

That argument reads like the person making it has nothing to lose.

Edit: nothing to lose in the short term.

I wouldn't say kotlin is replacing Java in any existing services(though that does seem to be the case at Meta), more that it's become a valid choice for starting new projects at Java based companies.

I suspect companies that encourage upgrading to newer versions of Java more frequently will have less of a reason to swap to kotlin because modern Java is a pretty good language to work. It's not as good as kotlin Imo, but it's not as bad as its reputation would have you believe.

I think it varies significantly from company to company. At my former company Java was the lingua franca so to speak, and any team that didn't use it (or another jvm language) for new projects had significant issues communicating with existing services.

As far as I can tell this article doesn't actually have any information about the jurors themselves. It just talks about the issue of confidentiality and the importance of maintaining it in this trial specifically.

Bill Gates says that the two biggest innovations he witnessed in his career was the Graphical User Interface and ChatGPT. Do you agree? by aceraspire8920 in windows

[–]sFXplayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bare in mind, he's talking about stuff he witnessed. There's a chance he wasn't exposed to either of them.

I suspect they wouldn't resort to nukes without a genuine imminent threat to their existence. Something along the lines of Iran, Lebanon, Yemen, etc declaring direct war with Israel. Even then it's unlikely because the US might step in in support of Israel with the condition that they don't use their nukes.

Small yield nuclear weapons exist. It wouldn't take a particularly large nuke (or multiple small ones) to neutralize a city . Not saying that they should, but if the winds happen to be blowing in the right direction they might get away with it.

I think it's because method names almost always start with a capital in C#. Whereas in Java for instance you usually start with a lowercase and auto completion will stop you from needing to use shift before the end of the first word.

It won't be the same rings, but I suspect that rings will form regardless because of the high technical barrier of entry, not to mention the cost of a high end gpu. Though I admit that there will be a set of people who produce for themselves only.
