District heating is the most normal thing ever....

Finland is not one of the most broke countries in the EU...

It is true. The OnePlus Nord are really good for the price

Well maybe they just did it for fun

It's already dirt cheap in northern Sweden and northern Norway

.NET programs can be AOT compiled

Games with anticheat generally don't. Multiplayer games without anticheat generally so work.

20 km/h is nothing. On a bike lane you should be allowed to go normal biking speed

The website has way too low contrast

Choosing to not invest in something is the complete opposite of virtue signaling... stop using words you don't know the meaning of

Volvo workers in Sweden are unionised

It can happen in Sweden too but it is less likely to. We don't have a president, we have a prime minister with limited power. We have a stronger democracy run by coalitions instead of a single party. One jackass is not enough in Sweden.

I am all for minimalism but "If you come from one codebase to another codebase by a different team it’s close to learning a completely new language" I really don't agree. It's not that big. Just sounds like a skill issue

What an entitled take.

What's the problem with the JIT runtime? Why is rapid iteration slower with JIT? Just-in-time compilation isn't inherently slower and is normally faster than AOT for dynamic languages and even static languages that have some dynamic features like dynamic dispatch

Unfortunately the QBE code is really strange so if you need to make some changes yourself it probably won't be very fun

I think the minimalist design is good. But hasn't the font size decreased over time in practice? When HN was first created, the average monitor had a much lower resolution, which made text appear larger. Now I think it's quite difficult to read compared to other websites. Obviously it's easily solved by zooming, but I think it would make sense to adjust for the change in resolutions over the years

Azure does this and has amazing tooling for bringing it all together locally (Aspire)

Because it gives more context. Quite obvious if you look at the readme...

It is not good for your wrists. Don't do that to yourself

The previous UI made no sense. Having the email viewer on the bottom and the list on the top instead of side by side makes absolutely no sense when most emails are designed for viewing in portrait.

Probably because your distro purposefully keeps software out of date because it is too fragile otherwise. I don't think that is reasonable at all for desktop use.

Yes. Premature optimisation when it comes to dynamic linking is the reason for why the year of the Linux desktop is far away in my opinion

Then you update those dependencies. Not very difficult with a package manager. And most dependencies aren't used by a ton of programs in a single system anyway. It is not a big deal in practice.

That's why I don't think Ubuntu is a newbie distro. You never have to compile for source on arch-based distros. Obviously plain arch isn't fit for beginners, but I would argue that something like endeavouros or cachyos is easier to use than Ubuntu. If you want to install something, you just run one command, and then it is installed, 99.99% of the time.

It absolutely is not awful. You are doing something wrong then. It's not as good as on macOS of course but it's still great. I get 8-10 hours.

It's not. What makes you say this?

I used my homemade shell language last year, called elk shell. It worked surprisingly well, better than other languages I've tried, because unlike other shell languages it is just a regular general purpose scripting language with a standard library that can also run programs with the same syntax as function calls.

Native AOT compiled code is not necessarily faster than JIT compiled code. The Java JIT engine can do a lot of optimisations that would not be possible with AOT compilation. In the end it's compiled down to machine code anyway.
