SOOLIN: You wanted more than a reward, though, didn't you, Keiller? You thought with our help you could get all that gold for yourself. I dislike greedy men, Keiller.
AVON: What was the reward?

@deprogrammaticaipsum@mas.to"What Stroustrup wanted was apparently what a lot of people wanted: a language that provided OOP features, such as those offered by Smalltalk, but compiled into binaries that would execute as fast as an executable written in C.
The solution Stroustrup adopted was not to adopt the Smalltalk model, but instead to take inspiration from fellow Scandinavians and to bolt ideas borrowed from Simula into C."
@tante@tldr.nettime.orgThat's maybe the worst thing about AI generators: In a way the whole system is set up to gaslight you into believing that you wanted what it created (because otherwise the magic goes poof).
@vibhurishi@social.linux.pizzaWhere have the trees gone ?
I have been traveling on the Delhi - Dehradun highway since college. For the last decade I have been driving on that road.
New roads are coming up. Faster travel time.
Earlier the road sides had trees. They provide shade in the extreme summers. Now there is nothing but a paved road. You cannot even get off it as it's a highway if you wanted to stop.

@alethenorio@fosstodon.orgI absolutely love coding in Go. When I started about 8 or so years ago, it had simple ideas and concepts but somewhere along the way it seems people lost track of what made it good.
