When you get into electrochemistry, the answer becomes complicated. Positively charged molecules move too, and in semiconductors there's such thing as a 'hole' - an absence of electron in a densely packed electron field - which carries charge as if it were a real particle.
I have a waist-high CD rack with music and games that's collecting dust for 15 years. If I finally throw it away, and someone picks it up from a garbage bin, will I become a pirate too?
Google was already doing that for years. Most of Firefox users use it because it's leaner than Chrome and supports adblockers. None of these advantages will suddenly disappear, but Chrome will inevitably become worse all by itself, and more users will migrate away from it to Firefox.
So Firefox strategy should be to simply not screw up by adding unnecessary stuff like AI.
At any point when I needed an engineering calculator, I just created an ad-hoc Python script. Python seems to be easier to learn than 30 random buttons with mysterious mathematical functions.
Standard C library is not the place to learn from or an example of good programming. This particular piece would not only fail every code review, but would make your colleagues point fingers at you and laugh:
In every sane codebase this piece of code would be replaced with some Python script that generates C source file that, while not pretty, does not make you want to commit an arson in your office room.
No. Standard C library is a pile of legacy code from 1980 that still includes pieces to support obscure OSes with the last version released in 1990, using a massive unreadable mess of #ifdef. It's only purpose is to work exactly as described in the documentation, pass unit tests, and maybe follow POSIX standard when it has the mood.
Perl is one of the worst to read programming languages. It uses every symbol you can enter on your keyboard as an operator for something. It can stuff regex string manipulation in totally random places. 93% of Paint Splatters are Valid Perl Programs
Pour a can of anti-fungus liquid on these boards, cover with a piece of linoleum or some waterproof rug, install your dishwasher, and leave further remodeling to your grandchildren.
Fast food is already as automated as it can be. Replacing cooks with robot kitchen is looks good as a management dream, but anyone who tried it quickly discovers that you need industrial robots, and they are fuckng expensive, and you need engineers anyway to maintain them. So you are replacing cheap cooks with outrageously expensive engineers.
"But no", some ignorant CEO says, "we're not assembling cars, we don't need pneumatic robot arm that can lift 10 tons". Yeah, you still need a robot arm, and it's just a miniaturized industrial robot, not any much cheaper.
But robot kitchen exist, and they are actually very profitable. Go to your nearest grocery shop. 99% of items on the shelves were produced by a robot. Everything in a plastic wrap, everything in a jar, was produced on a conveyor. Even fresh produce involves some kind of automation.
So robots won't fry your potatoes, because french fries have really short shelf life. Otherwise they totally could, but hiring a cook is cheaper.
That corner cutout is grossly exagerrated. In the actual floppy disk (which is also not floppy anymore) the cutout is tiny.
