  • Israel has actual protests against the government ongoing. It’s not clear if Netanyahu will manage to win the next election.

    There are no protests in Russia at all and elections are a farce.

  • Great points. Especially putting in more memory can get you very far.

    Database optimization? Nah, just put in 1 TB of RAM to keep the whole DB in memory at all times.

  • Oh you need this in garbage collected languages too, once you run into memory use issues. GC languages are notorious for being wasteful with memory, even when working correctly.

  • Yes, pretty much like UML diagrams. Who is responsible for allocating memory and freeing it.

    Languages like Swift, Objective-C, C++ have features that mean you don’t need to do this by hand. But you have to tell the compiler if you want to keep and object around and who owns it.

    See this article on Objective-C to see the different ways to manage memory this language supports.

  • OOP also has object ownership hierarchy structures. Which object owns which other object, is a question always worth answering.

  • Books, classes, and documentation can also be lacking for new tech.

  • We've refactored to microservices

    Jump

  • Those microservices are a mix of a dozen programming languages across dozens of different versions.

  • FreeBSD of course.

  • Lots of programmers are autists and dont like new information.

  • Hezbollah has killed far more Arabs than they ever damaged Israel. Without Hezbollah Assad would have lost in Syria years ago. They have also turned Lebanon into a failed state for decades.

    Hezbollah are horrible all around. They are ineffective at fighting Israel and great at killing Arabs.

  • YSK some cities in the US are starting to build an affordable community built wifi network that goes around big telecom companies

  • I see freifunk networks more rarely nowadays. They also are notoriously slow. Usually the mobile phone network is faster, even in Germany.

  • Webm supports multiple audio and subtitle tracks inside its RIFF container structure, why the hell arent browsers supporting it???

    Jump

  • YouTube supports multiple audio tracks and multiple language subtitles. Same for Netflix and pretty much all major streaming platforms.

  • We felt poorer, so economists should be lynched!

    The contrast between people’s experiences in their everyday lives and what politicians or experts say is important.

    If the economy is supposedly doing great but I can afford less and less and my life gets worse, that’s a contradiction.

    The USA is moving more to something like the gilded age with more wealth disparity, more suffering for the poor, more violence.

    The anti-intellectualism and anti-elitism of the cultural revolution was far more extreme. You are right that there are some similar ideas brewing.

    When the political and economic system is no longer delivering for the population, it will turn against the (perceived) leaders. Trump and the right spins this very well by directing the anger against „removed“ liberal academics, foreigners, and away from the billionaires.

    The „removed“ elites are also in crisis. The Democratic Party is in shambles.

  • often people know that, for example, elections are fraudulent, but they are too scared to say anything

    People might vaguely understand that elections don't produce good outcomes or have systemic bias. That’s then condensed to „elections are rigged“, regardless of the facts and details.

    Most people know little about most things. It’s difficult to even have good fundamentals about most things in our complex world. So people will defer to their personal experience and information seeped into their minds by osmosis/exposure.

    Things like an economy or political system are extremely complex already and not fully understood even by experts.
