Quote: The results from the extension experiment showed that review times and review quality appeared consistent with and without anonymous review. They also found that, for certain types of review, it was more difficult for reviewers to guess the code's author.
Consistent with what? If anonymous reviews were consistent with ones where the author is known; that would mean that non-white male developers still received more pushback on changes than white men did. That in turn would mean either the anonymization somehow failed, or that the higher rates of pushback the other groups of devs received actually was valid, not BS. Neither of those conclusions fit with the rest of the article.

It is actually covered pretty well in the article. It seems to mainly be for esoteric library writers, to eliminate duplicated code on type.

It may have good reasons, but when a language tries to be all things to all people, it inevitably fails. PL/1 tried to be that, and is not used much today.
There must be some ideal level of complexity between C89 and C++23, but reasonable people may differ.

It does not look like this addition forces you to use it, nor does it make you change anything in your existing codebase. If either of those weren't the case, I might agree with your analysis. I sincerely doubt C++ is going away any time soon.

I'm all for helping people working in the lower layers of a stack, as long as they don't inflict pain on their consumers. So the question becomes if this actually will deliver on it's minimal impact to consumers claims.

Engineers used a combination of labeled and unlabeled video data to teach their model how to swim, hunt, and even pillar jump. Then they came for our blocks, and I did nothing as I just can't figure out what that "game" is all about
"OpenAI shows a video of its model swimming, hunting, and cooking animals." Great, so now it knows how to hunt and cook when it becomes SkyNet.

‘Civil comments and criticisms welcome,’ wrote Sen. Lummis (R-WY) Can they rebase the US government and start over?
Bless her for trying at least
Edit: I guess that could read “all governments”, but there might be one out there worth keeping. I just don’t know about it.

Quote: “Digital assets, blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies have experienced tremendous growth in the past few years and offer substantial potential benefits if harnessed correctly,”
Definition:
"substantial potential benefits" - take all the fools for everything you can get!
'tremendous growth' hasn't really been a thing lately, as far as crypto is concerned, unless 'growth' is defined much differently, too...

To be fair, headlines tend to focus on the currency part of cryptocurrencies, as opposed to the value of the underlying technology - blockchain. So when the currencies fall there is a tendency to think it's the end of crypto!
But 'currency' in the usual sense is just one use case. There are lots of other applications (and existing projects) out there for which the currencies mainly serve as tokens for exercising the functionality of the applications.
