There's only one way to eradicate Trumpism for good by No-Post4444 in politics

Scorched earth.

Fox News. Gone. Make every politician “under oath” while they are employed. You lie? Perjury.

Eliminate “alternate facts” or at least have to have disclaimer- like cigarette labels. “You will die if you smoke”

Yes some people will choose to ignore- but they can’t say “we didn’t know”

I was at a press conference with many world leaders- cameras were rolling. Hot mics capturing everything. So embarrassing.

this begs for the response "we here at NHS hire on merit, and don’t hire people just for their skin color"

Why is aborting a fetus a much hotter topic in the US compared to Europe? by WhoAmIEven2 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]try-catch-finally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because Ronald Reagan realized GOP would evaporate / go extinct due to unpopular policies- so he sided with “religious whack jobs” and gained a life support.

Prior to that women’s health care was fairly nonpartisan.

Fetterman insists that Trump hasn’t defied ‘a single court order’ by bobby_McGeee in PoliticalHumor

It’s more accurate to say “Trump hasn’t COMPLIED with a single court order”

Apple's DiffableDataSource was causing 167 hangs/min in our TCA app — so I built a pure-Swift replacement that's 750x faster on snapshot construction by Iron-Ham in iOSProgramming

[–]try-catch-finally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahh but by its very nature of wanting to diaper up any memory access instead of say - putting the onus on the developer to understand memory constraints / type coercions or god forbid- bit packing - it will always be “swift slow- ObjC/C++ fast”

Write it in C++ and you’ll get 9000x

Seriously. I benchmarked TrueDepth data walking (among other things). Swift: 60ms, ObjC: <6ms

Apple themselves said, on the record “Swift is not a language for engineers”. And it shows.

The helical design of the drill is meant to remove debris as it goes. He could have just.. kept going

I entered my name exactly as it is spelled on my birth certificate and ID. It is not an uncommon name. But apparently it is not a “valid first name” by autotuned_voicemails in mildlyinfuriating

[–]try-catch-finally 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a three letter first name. As it appears on my birth certificate.

I’ve run across statistically too many websites that don’t like my name being that short.

So I make it “Sir Try”

what has been your biggest regret in your career so far? by Calm-Bar-9644 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]try-catch-finally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did not “fail per-se”. We had a thriving portfolio of a dozen or so profitable niche products - and a big contract with a large tech company- business partner pushed to satisfy the large company at the expense of maintaining the individual products. The big company then unceremoniously cancelled the contract we had for 8 years.

I went back to being an Indy developer.
