Attention Spoiled Developers

This video contains so much useful information that I almost got null reference exception from watching it

I’m left not understanding how the fact that Go is a nice language is related to developers being spoiled and shit. The article author got drunk from the cornucopia of fancy words too much, trying to sound like a sophisticated art reviewer, and forgot what the title was.

Annus Mirabilis commonly refers to 1905, the year where Einstein wrote 4 ground breaking papers that proved molecules exist (Brownian motion), electrons exist in specific non-continuous energy states (Photoelectric effect, a foundational paper for Quantum Mechanics), and two papers laying down Special Relativity (one of which being E=mc^2). I know I’m biased, but it’s hard for me to imagine anyone shaking a field to its core so thoroughly to be compared to Einstein’s Annus Mirabilis.

"in rust sometimes there's collateral damage in the change you make" - i think unintentionally this describes a big part of the problem in the Rust in the kernel controversy.

It's crazy that the Social Network can be considered "inspirational". I saw it as a condemnation of that entire industry.

Touch screens in cars should be illegal. It is an ergonomic design disaster. In a car - everything should be built to make it easy to keep you eyes up and on the road. Tactile affordances do the trick. Touch screens encourage bad driving by forcing you to look at the screen. One day we will wise up and use the right technology with the right context.
