The letter “W” is called “double U” because the Normans invented it by combining two pointed capital letters to represent the sound “w” in Anglo-Saxon words after the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The name “double U” still indicates how the letter was created.

Before the Norman Conquest, the Latin letter “V” was used to represent both the “v” and “w” sounds. The Anglo-Saxons created a separate character called “wen” to represent the “w” sound. After the Norman Conquest, the Normans combined two pointed capital letters to create the “W” to represent the “w” sound in Anglo-Saxon words.

That’s why we don’t like c

Isn’t it like made of water?

Seems sensible. Check the output of AI tools before posting. Be pretty stupid not to proof read it at a minimum.

That would drive me crazy lol

I feel it’s kind of like comments. You don’t need to explain every change made as the diff does that. Just explain why the changes were made.

They’d have to charge for it anyway. It wouldn’t be very different if they did it themselves.

Both of those things describe allergies tbf. You can have a full blown allergy to almost anything.

World of warcraft in the earlier days was very social as there were lots of things you simply couldn’t do on your own.

There was no built in LFG mechanic and even many quests required small groups.

You’d end up bumping into the same people regularly due to similar play times and levels.

I forged some really great friendships back then.

I feel the same as a programmer. Also time zones.

The study measured pull request (PR) cycle time, or the time to merge code into a repository, and PR throughput, the number of pull requests merged. It found no significant improvements for developers using Copilot.

Yeah doesn’t seem like the best measurements.

It is compiled to bye code. Just to be clear transpiling is completely different. It is also not interpreted.

But ahead of time compilation is available now. So you can compile straight machine code.

The newer tiered JIT can actually give better performance than a traditional compiler as well.

Overall C# is an awesome language. If performance is absolutely critical you can use raw pointers and manual memory management, but obviously you lose safety then.

My friend used to live on Bodmin moor and claimed to have seen big cats in the distance many times.

They also found half a sheep dragged up a tree and multiple animals ripped to shreds with weird fur around.

They also did a lot of mushrooms.

So the jury is still out haha

They are 100% ai. They run on neural networks which were some of the first AIs.

The thing with rust is that it is awesome. It does exactly what it promises and everyone keeps going on about.

If you want to talk cult talk to c developers. They are so indoctrinated. They say things like “undefined behaviour is fine you just have to code around it” “it’s great there’s almost no surface area to the standard lib as you can now trust your fellow developers to perfectly write all constructs” “yeah it causes uncountable security vulnerabilities (even when written by it’s foremost experts) but that’s unskilled developers and not a language problem”

That guy that causes pretty much every major code based security vulnerability?

For me you really aren’t selling it.

When the answer to major draw backs with a language is use it better that’s a dead end for me.

Some of the greatest programming minds have been using c for a long time and we still have a huge amount of dangerous vulnerabilities all the time.

The language is fundamentally flawed and other languages have demonstrated that you can get the same flexibility, expressiveness and performance without these flaws.

Again with the lack of many standard lib constructs. I now have to trust that every lib i use was written by a serious expert. as they’ll need to implement so much themselves rather than trusting the core language team, who you hope would know it better than most.

And again with OOP. Why hack it into a language rather than use a language that supports it.

It’s beginning to feel like people are just clinging to c because it’s what they are used to. All I seem see are justifications of its flaws and not any reasons to actually use it.

If it came out today you’d have an incredibly hard time convincing anyone to use it over other languages.

The research shows a decrease in symptoms after the procedure and nothing more or less.

It doesn’t say anything about gut disorder or why they could be linked.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10017995/

There have been 5 studies that all seem to show a positive link.

But way way more reseach is needed.

Well neural networks (the construct LLMs use) is modelled on how neurons process information. Just in incredibly simplified form.

And I’m pretty sure most scientists agree that humans are actually a colony of many different species given how we rely on bacteria to live.

No it’s literally not. Being a bigot is not a political view.

Politicians may use it to get votes from bigots.

But hating black or gay people is not a valid political stance.

The notion that you group a race people (or in fact any large group) by any characteristics has been scientifically disproven. There is no evidence to support that stance it is simply stupidity and/or hate. Often stemming from a lack of understanding of genetics or a general lack of understanding the wider world.

It is also how they should react if they were a decent person. My point is they are not. They are in fact cunts.
