Seeing universe as a whole that follows Tao/Dao, is one of the essences of Zhuang Zi's philosophy. That really broadens one's views and thoughts. Sadly, we are being advocated to be "individual". Actually not. One's fingers cannot be individual, so is everyone. We are connected.
Shu(倏) lived in the South, Hu(忽) lived in the north, Chaos lived in the middle. Chaos treated Shu and Hu very well. Shu and Hu wanted to repay Chaos for his kindness. They discussed:. Everyone has 7 orifices to look, hear, breath, and eat; but Chaos doesn't. Let's help him by.

No, using raw pointers in C++ in 2025 means you are writing C, not C++, of course not modern C++. Use STL or equivalent Template Libraries. They are encapsulated enough to avoid any necessity of raw pointers.
Some devs say using raw pointers in 2025 means you’re not writing Modern C++. Others argue they still have niche use-cases. Where do you stand?.

We've developed CPU from 32 to 64, yet we still cannot shift the GB from 1,000,000,000 Bytes to the precise value: 1,073,741,824 Bytes. We still have to use GiB, in serious scenarios. We are so smart.

You can play with dynamic data structures in C, but there is one rule: Do not assert memory allocation succeeds, instead, always check NULL return.
Every programmer should spend time building all the fundamental data structures from scratch (dynamically resizable array, hashmap, linked list). Actually learning how they work and the specific implementation tricks is 10x more valuable than just knowing their Big O complexity.

You would definitely be doomed if you really, really think that AI is smart enough, vibe coding is reliable, and your computer is secure with LLM:

They crawled the GitHub to train their AI models, and claim that AI coding is magic and that AI can turn ideas into codes/products immediately.
they milked stackoverflow to train their ai models, tossed it aside like trash, and now nobody even uses it anymore.

If you are obsessed to AI in your phone, I'd say, good luck to your privacy. I like AI, but take over my phone? Get the fk outta here.

Just curious but isn't OAuth a debatable decision for your apps? Your user statistics (not the data in your app but the signup/signin) would be exposed to the OAuth providers, right?.

The core of the core issue in Web services: Heartbeats. Never forget designing a good heartbeat solution to handle situations related to networking issues.
Quick Question:. "Just use WebSockets" they said for chat. Simple, right? . Then your users complain: . "Why does my friend appear online when their phone is off?" . "Why did my message disappear when the network blipped?". How do you fix this ?.

When interacting with system-level APIs, the golden rule is:. Always check the return value. The OS doesn't guarantee your stuff - it has lots of things to take care of. Maybe, most of the times it returns good results for you to proceed with, but exceptions may occur.

I don't doubt the coding capabilities of AI models, because:. - I can develop interactive, intuitive, functional front end pages without knowing TypeScript language or next.js frameworks. (E.g. a fully functional dashboard). - I can let AI to implement pretty good backend modules.

Anyone claiming that BYD is "leading the EV market" actually lack of sense of reality about China and the Chinese market. The EV prosperity in China has been driven directly and mainly by the government strategy and policies. So, is Tesla great? Maybe, maybe not, but the real.
Do people understand why this is? Their revenues are roughly the same, but one is worth (market cap) 6 times more than the other. Why would that be?. Partial answer is hype. The other part of the answer is trust in the future. Chinese companies, it is believed, are controlled by.

Could any one please explain why Cloudflare is able to verify a human without any explicit interactive challenges? Many thanks.

A weird thing is, I have never seen any mainstream consumer products here in China equipped with the mysterious LoongArch chips. What's happening in China is, for general purpose products, X64 and Arm are still dominating and will continue dominating the market. Without enough.
The West has a blindspot when it comes to alternative CPU designs. We’re so entrenched in the usual x86, ARM, RISC-V world, that most people have no idea what’s happening over in China. LoongArch is a fully independent ISA that’s sorta MIPS…sorta RISC-V…and sorta x87!

This morning, my boss talked a lot about making money with Web 3, USDC, USDT, international trading . I was like: damn it, I'm gonna fire him.

Without smoking, I can code. Without chewing gums, I can code. Without washing or shaving, I can code. Without air conditioners, I can still code. Without coke, well, maybe I can code. But without coffee - are you kidding? Give me the damn coffee!.
