What's the name of the fork?

They are jokingly referring to macOS, which is descendant from a fork of BSD with the Mach kernel.

He used a periphrasis to mean macos.

You're probably not. Programming in lisp,back in my college days, felt enlightening. I remember flying through quiet complex projects with a clarity that I've rarely experienced in my professional career. I do yearn for those days when I'm deep within a nonsensical "enterprise" Java codebase or a messy frontend codebase but I don't think Lisp made me an objectively "better" programmer. There is enough imposter syndrome in this industry as it is. If you ever want to, pick up SICP or "How to design programs", you'll probably find them interesting but don't expect to find programming nirvana.

No they don't. What are you talking about?

> It provided one-click access to setup website, Google workspace, provided direct verification in Google Search Console and Google Analytics, and just made sense.

If you're not familiar with it, Google Analytics is a bunch of tracking scripts.

> provided direct verification in Google Search Console and Google Analytics

Yes, it allows you to easily verify you own your domain: in both Search Console and Analytics. Doesn't mean they'd automatically add analytics to your site.

How would they do that? If you point the DNS record to your server, the visitors call your server, not Google's. They can't just MiTM it.

Seems you're right, sorry, I misunderstood.

I realize that they have had many failures in their long history but it seems like they have been on a roll since the iPod release 22 years ago. Do you know of any product flop from Apple in the last two decades? I'm genuinely curious.

- AirPower. That was straight-up cancelled. - The larger HomePod was pretty crap. - Butterfly switch failures - Apple Maps was garbage upon first release - Ping was 13 years ago, but it was one of those things that everyone knew was doomed to fail - The trashcan Mac Pro was not really made for professionals. I don't remember many selling.

Thanks for replying! I hadn't heard of half of the items on this list which I think kind of proves GP's point.

How quickly we forget the debacle of the Apple Maps launch, which forestalled the CEOship of Scott Forstall.

Sales flops:

iPod HiFi iPhone 5C HomePod

And engineering failures:

Trashcan Mac Pro Airpower

There's not many but there are a few.

I don't see this as one of them. The only thing thats an issue is the price. The tech looks streets ahead of everyone else. With time the price will come down and the features will grow like all Apple products.

Here's a post explaining how they do it https://fly.io/blog/docker-without-docker/

Yeah, saw that before. I thought he was saying you have to change your Dockerfiles to use them with fly.io. Just misinterpreted that sentence.

I found that as a result, dialog was clearer. I really hate how loud everything other than dialog is in most movies for the sake of 'immersion'. I eventually gave up and settled on using subtitles when I don't want to miss any parts of a conversation.

FWIW, I'm way more fluent in English than French.

You're definitely not having a stroke. Here is another thread discussing the same thing. I specifically remember the 'polycule' comments. It was my first time learning about that word.

It does support plugins but only on Android.

Come on. Is this kind of baseless speculation really warranted?

I wouldn't say they are ignoring it. Case in the point that guide, you linked, recommends targeting recommends using C++17 which I think qualifies as modern. Compiler support for some of the newer features of C++2x hasn't matured yet.[0] That recommendation to avoid them seems sensible.

Except ISO C++17 doesn't prevent random devs to call malloc()/free()/strcpy()/.... so modern is relative.

After reading those guidelines, I suggest reading Google's own code on the context of Android.
