And you guessed it, they copied that ignored-annotation, too, complete with the comment "//TODO currently broken". The test they implemented was not run, not even once.

Junior dev here, this is the kind of stuff that is supposed to prompt you to ask questions. Literally one slack message when you see it, and give it a few hours for whenever you have time to see it and respond. I know it's annoying messaging y'all with stuff but... C'mon you gotta do it sometimes, especially if it's something you can reasonably predict will come up in review or is a simple question that doesn't require a lot of time to answer.

Nah, it's because $400 for a GPU enclosure is insane, at that rate I can just get the mid-range GPU built in with the regular price of the laptop

Correction: modern C++ is pretty sweet.

Chances are if you're working on C++ in a professional setting it's not modern C++ :(

You mean Web3? Yeah Web3 is going to do jack shit to solve this, if anything it'll make it worse

Are we not intelligent?

Well... there's an argument to be made there.

They're not difficult by any means.

But they are tedious when compared to other solutions.

Dynamically typed/interpreted language?

Python Yup that checks out.

I've never understood why so many languages insist on a feature that causes such a obtuse and tedious programming experience.

Python is great, until you don't remember a function call, and can't guess using your LSP to tell you. :/

They make a few Wayland DWMs

Yeah, then we can have marginally more responsive web apps.

Seriously though, web apps are usually just optimized like shit in addition to using chrome.

Forcing Adoption of Google’s Tools: Locking in website publishers to its newly-acquired tools by restricting its unique, must-have advertiser demand to its ad exchange, and in turn, conditioning effective real-time access to its ad exchange on the use of its publisher ad server;

More on this is how they've treated new web technologies like WebHID. TL;DR is that nobody agreed with Google's implementation of WebHID but (especially considering it was just "oh hey we wrote some code for it, this is how it should work :)"), since they're the biggest, went with it anyway and told Mozilla and others to go pound sand. Google has immense influence over what the web actually is, but nobody talks about that.
