@KevinNaughtonJr Looks like three to me ... but that could be an off by one bug.

@SumitM_X If you need 20 questions to get a singleton to safely work, you really need to be questioning your sanity. Just sayin'

@sampullara A day is on the order of 10^5 seconds. 2^10 is roughly 10^3. Many floating point multiplications/divisions of integer numbers can be replaced by bitshifts combined with add/sub. For example, 0.75*r is (r >> 1) + (r >> 2).

@arinarium @intellijidea Glad to hear it's a known bug. Thanks for the link!

@brunoborges *torture of possessing something

@brunoborges "Boring" in this case is good, as is "stable".

@brunoborges Two out of three ain't bad!

@jverce @ohmypy Erlang is pretty mainstream. It's not dominant by any stretch, but it's as mainstream as Smalltalk was after Java came out -- which is to say that everyone knows about it, and most people know someone who has programmed in it. And to its credit, it's still active and improving.

@Grady_Booch @ohmypy Do we have to? 😳

Ironically, 25 years later, we hit a leap year bug on the 31st of December.

@_trish_07 Ecstasy (xtclang) (But that was a given.)

@speakjava @elonmusk To continue to refer to it as "the Information Age" seems like a poor choice of words at this point. This is an interregnum, and what follows cannot yet be predicted; it could as easily be a second Dark Age as it could be a second Age of Enlightenment.

@ddoomen It seems that adding typing functionality to an existing language and type system is always going to be ugly.

If only there were a language and platform that could help lower the waste of power and servers that we have today ...

@javinpaul Sounds like learning Coherence 20 years ago ...

@VahidK Accidentally confusing fancy auto-complete with AGI is not something that one would expect an actual intelligent being with knowledge of the subject matter to do. Purposefully confusing them, as we see here, is another story.

On mixins:

@VaughnVernon There is always Mastodon, but it's a slower build from zero, because it (purposefully) doesn't leverage the rage-inducing algorithms that built Twitter and Facebook to their present day sizes.

@jtdavies Your mushroom art in that crema is upside down.
