What you call politics (US political “issues”) and politicking (the act of seeking and organizing power or influence) are different things.

Maybe US political issues have no spot in tech but politics are a part of being human.

Conversation starts with “we realize this looks bad”. No shit. Thanks for the threat.

Not like farmers don’t abuse and exploit the land themselves. It’s just a bit more aesthetic.

Sure, I guess I maintain its that’s not what sarcasm is but we do agree on the point

They’re not being sarcastic, they are repeating Google’s (bs) justification

Thats where they went! Oops

Totally, but I’m not aware of anyone using either properly in a truly production environment. Both are more on the hobbyist or tinkering side, or in the Linux space anyway where you can already just do anything.

(From what I’ve seen? Would be thrilled to see examples!)

I really like Micropython too. I made a “game” that communicates state between multiple boards over wifi in almost no time compared to how long it would take in C++.

Aha on embedded not much choice there. It’s what keeps C alive and relevant for sure

I’m not suggesting replacing the small programs with one mega Python script, I meant that even C is not a good language for that either.

If you’re chaining a bunch of stuff together through your shell environment anyway, you’re not using the low level benefits of C, so you’re just punishing yourself with having to implement everything by hand every time! Python is amazing because the syntax is clear and readable and the standard library has nearly everything you’d need if you’re not building a large application.

However since most of these things are going to be one-liners then yeah you may want to just put them in one script!

Welcome to the world of JavaScript

What you’re describing sounds like Python. Not really C’s strong suit.

If you haven’t checked it out yet, you certainly should!

That’s what I mean by “the grade you need”. If you need RON 87 don’t “splurge” for 93. It’s not better its just different and more expensive.

… Yeah just buy the grade you need not the “expensive” one, it’s a commodity!

Aw I was getting some “Weather on the ones - REMIX” ideas hah

With the word “multiplex” does it let you play both the radio and 8-track at the same time (overlapping?)

Perfect, I can now use any word thats not mutually exclusive completely dependently (interchangeably) and be appreciated (understood)

Counteract means to oppose something to reduce its effect. Contradict means to say or do something opposite or inconsistent with something else.

You just described one of the famous Catalan tapas Pan Con Tomate (maybe minus the cheese)

What do you mean “not anymore”? You can’t rewrite history… The G in GTK comes from GIMP. It was formerly called GIMP ToolKit.

I was replying to the comment thread suggesting they should switch to Qt.
