Backus led the team that developed the Fortran programming language in 1957, still touted today as “the first high-level programming language” on web pages at IBM. Nailing 95 punch cards to the computer?

Autocode was the first high-level language.

|

Yeah, but IBM couldn’t claim that one.

In this blog post we will make a small excourse to new features which might come in the close or distant feature of the C# language. "The future's not ours to see"

Example 1:
Quote:
</div>var timer = new DispatcherTimer
{
Interval = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5);
};
timer.Tick += (s, e) => { ... };
The proposal exactly wants to tackle that behavior:
var timer = new DispatcherTimer
{
Interval = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5);
timer.Tick += (s, e) => { ... };
};
looks like something I'd try to write and then swear at the compiler when it errored. Fixing these things are the best sort of enhancements.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Software Freedom Conservancy, a not-for-profit organization that provides support and legal services for open source software projects, has called on the open source community to ditch GitHub after quitting the code-hosting and collaboration platform itself. "We will prevail, in peace and freedom from fear, and in true health, through the purity and essence of our natural..."
I kept reading the organization's name, and wondered why does the San Francisco Conservancy worry about this?

Are they for software that is unencumbered by honorous licenses?
Or are they a phony front for non-Microsoft corporate interests?

Certainly #1, maybe #2 as well

I think it's pretty clear from the paragraph quoted below:
Quote: Software Freedom Conservancy is financially backed by a number of big-name companies, such as Google, Red Hat and Mozilla, and its members span more than 40 projects, including Git (which GitHub relies heavily on), Selenium and Godot.
The difficult we do right away...

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. There are certainly some valid concerns about Copilot. On the other hand, GitHub has improved considerably since MSFT acquired it.

Quote: It’s also worth noting that Microsoft’s old foe Amazon recently debuted its own incarnation of Copilot called CodeWhisperer, which rolled out in preview last week. And it’s clear from its launch that Amazon is trying to address some of the copyright concerns that have arisen from Copilot — for example, if CodeWhisperer generates a code suggestion that is similar to an existing snippet found in its training data, it will highlight the license associated with that original function. It’s then up to the developer whether they use that code or not.
Another recent article on co-pilot claimed that this sort of traceability was beyond what current generation AI could do. So did Amazon make a low-key announcement of a breakthrough, or did the other article writer not know what they were talking about?

Dang, but that is so much better. I hate it when I’m reminded at how much all of y’all out-class me. 
I’m tempted to update the blurb for the mailing.

Go for it. But I can't compete with you except for a very limited subset of topics. Your range of quotes exposes my crappy memory banks for being an empty shell, comparatively speaking. And you may possibly be more sarcastic than me. Maybe.

I freaked out trying to put in and remove regular contacts. Didn't help that I reacted badly to every solution I tried.

Don't worry. These will be 'light' contacts. They are the 'solution.'

The case was initially filed in 2020 when the plaintiffs accused Google of anti-competitive practices with the 30% fee Google takes on in-app purchases on its Google Play Store. So about three hours revenue? Seems fair and equitable.
At least according to the 2021 revenue.
