That's what I would have thought. What exactly is a typical alternative approach, commercially? Open source projects might maintain a wiki or traditional website, and documentation files within the source itself.

Also in professional env if a company cares about it’s trade secrets it will not rely on 3rd party solutions for all of it’s communications.
This one is big, and shouldn't just be professional environments. People rely on open spy devices in both environments because they're dumb.
Element would be a great alternative. Signal would also be decent.
So how do you write a good test? It's like you have to account for unknown unknowns, and I don't really have a good theory for doing that.
Right now, I usually end up writing tests after the code is broken, and most of them pass because they make the same mistakes as my original code.
I wonder if there's an available OS that parity checks every operation, analogous to what's planned for Quantum computers.
Crops in western America might fail, but the whole world isn't America. Yields move, and 2023-2024 was a record harvest globally.
Don't take my word for it, there's an actual scientist elsewhere in the thread.
Humans are fucking stupid.
Well, we can agree on that. The human reaction to "the world is ending" is usually giving up. Which is why we shouldn't say that unless the science supports that, which it doesn't quite.
Exactly. Those are puppets. Nobody's expecting the puppeteer to fight the puppets.
The problem is, once the country is out of the EU’s protection, daddy Russia will be happy to raise him an alcoholic, racist scumbag.
Oh no, Hungary could do so much damage on their own! /s
And honestly, it's a question how long Putinism is even going to survive. If the West can keep it's shit together the answer is not very long.
The OG white Middle Eastern country.
Mmm, race conditions, just like mama used to make.
It's not environment-killing either, at least as far as growing wheat and tomatoes is concerned. Environment-damaging, sure, but we could potentially starve a lot of people and keep going (though we shouldn't!), and it's not even clear agricultural output will go down rather than just relocating.
Don't get me wrong, I like having wild animals besides rats and flies, and I don't love the idea of a giant global mass-migration crisis as Bangladesh sinks into the sea and we fight over farmland in what used to be an icecap, so I still think we need to crack down on fossil fuels a lot harder. We're pretty adaptable, though, and some sad little human world will exist on the other side if that's all.
Actually, I'd say it made them a country, back before they lost all their territory.
I'm not sure what the exact term we use has to do with the fate of socialist systems anyway, so I won't reduce myself to arguing about it. If you don't have anything else, I think we're done here.
Interesting. I wonder why they didn't just move it to somewhere with less radiation? And clearly, they have another more trustworthy machine doing the checking somehow. A self-correcting OS would have to parity check it's parity checks somehow, which I'm sure is possible, but would be kind of novel.
In a really ugly environment, you might have to abandon semiconductors entirely, and go back to vacuum as the magical medium, since it's radiation proof (false vacuum apocalypse aside). You could make a nuvistor integrated "chip" which could do the same stuff; the biggest challenge would be maintaining enough emissions from the tiny and quickly-cooling cathodes.
