Looks nice, congratulations.

I feel like we've done full circle. Languages are back to being (mostly) procedural. I'm not sure I like it, but it seems that this is what people prefer.

Personally, I'd rather see something like dependant types on a dotnet language. An addition, not just a simplification.

Given both Lua and python use a enumerator, the C++ example isn't really the correct equivalent.

  for (auto [i, v] : std::views::enumerate(vec)) {
      std::cout << i << ": " << v << '\n';
  }
This is how you'd do it.

I'm not very informed on SpaceX plans, but one thing I think people gloss over is how much maintenance a data center requires. Parts fail, computers get stuck on crash loops, etc. A space data center would need workers - computer people, not astronauts - and a constant supply of parts tob replace hardware. Whoever wrote this proposal doesn't understand neither space nor data centers.

It's improving but sota models are now too slow for a real time game. Training a specialized neural network would be more effecient.

Orange and apples... China has very intentional policy behind those decisions. The US... Not so much. I don't buy that Trump and his whole cabinet are as dumb as they look, but they are only motivated by profit. And ignorance.

If the latest Gaza war taught us anything, is that UN is powerless. And, unfortunately, it is the highest entity that could apply leverage here, so... Not much we can do. In the long term I hope other nations realize they are very vulnerable and begin to invest more in defense, but that escalation can have other downsides.

I think that all this people defending this post have no idea that this rationale can cause. I'm sitting at a codebase that has the same code for iterating copied around 20 times.

As a senior I will tell you to dedup whether I can to avoid this shit.
