Germany saw first-hand what happens when a far-right party is elected through democratic ways. They have all the reasons in the world to try to prevent it again.

Look at this fancy guy using an abacus. Everyone knows the superior way is to harness your own mind as your computer.
It’s way worse on C and it’s family. I still have nightmares with undocumented embedded dependencies that are so intertwined with the codebase that make JS look like a godsend.
Servo is being actively worked on. Maybe it can become a worthy adversary to chrome?
“Beware those who can’t tell apart the will of God from their own”?
Well, Threads was meant as a Twitter competitor. Seems like the toxicity levels are starting to get on-par.
That is a dangerous path to trek, and would lead to record numbers of vote manipulation (excluding dictatorships).
The “none of the above” should be cut-and-dry. If those votes hold the majority, the election is nullified and the candidates are removed from the next one, as clearly the electorate does not seem them fit for the position. It would also give the electorate a good way of protesting, strengthening the democratic values it should hold.
Those who didn’t vote should simply not be counted. Though if it starts approaching 50%, it should ring some alarms.
Well, time to add Ragnarök to my Apocalypse Bingo Card.
The only complaint I have, and it’s not really a problem with the OS itself, is that the Realtek driver is unstable at best, and will crash every five minutes.
And OP talks about Alchemy, which commonly uses the energy that different materials have inherently to create magical artifacts.
It’s literally using what God already created.
So, straight out of 1984?
If it involves pointers, not unlikely.
Easy: murder everyone. Which will probably be the course of action this Skynet will take.
I think the Butlerian Jihad can’t do shit against Judgment Day.
In many cases, yes.
But they are still better than most of the world, not that the bar is that high.
Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript’s “Everything is better than crashing” philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.
Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I’d rather not have one that is “these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault”, but rather one that is slightly more flexible.
With C, you need to carefully craft your own gun with just iron ingots and a hammer. You will shoot yourself in the foot, but at least you’ll have the knowledge that it was your craftsmanship that led to it.
With C++, there are already prebuilt guns and tons of modifications that you can combine at will. If you shove it in the right way, you can make a flintlock shoot a 50 cal, but don’t complain when your whole leg gets obliterated.
And yet somehow it evolved to become something that will last to the heat death of the universe.
I’ve grown used to it with time, though. Once you know it’s “quirks”, it’s not so bad.
The amount of times I said that only to be quickly proven wrong by the fundamental forces of existence is the reason that’s going to be written on my tombstone.
