Yeah, recent versions of GCC have gotten a lot better. I suspect it’s actually because of languages like Rust raising the bar.

Yuuup… Debugging concurrent code is a bitch.

My first thought as well, lol.

I don’t see a call to fork(), so there’s clearly no child here.

Rolling shutter, my beloathed…

Blue and yellow?

Aren’t the x-axis labels wrong? If I’m interpreting this correctly, the x and y axes labels should be the same. That might be partly why people are getting confused.

The leopards might already have a lot of those cases covered.

The Japanese honorifics are what truly elevate this to abhorrence.

Red flag citing No Child Left Behind as a positive policy decision. Not saying that the problem isn’t real, but that statement combined with the history of moral panics around education make me somewhat suspicious of the article’s purpose.

Glad to see someone had the same initial reaction to that headline.

I mean, that is pretty arbitrary. The reason the divisor is that specific constant is because we already had meters before we knew the speed of light.

I’m going to assume this is Meta’s usual level of negligent greed, and there’s a decent chance that no human was involved. YouTube actually did something very similar.

I love Ze Frank, but this isn’t really a meme.

This is something I think a lot of people don’t realize; It’s a cascading failure. It’s not just that some competent people will leave the country. The rest of their teams will have to bear the extra burden and be demoralized. They will then feel compelled to leave as well.

It’s happened numerous times in both the public and private sectors. Now they’re deliberately trying to do this shit on a national scale. If we ever recover from this, it’s going to take decades…
