Bill Caputo<p>The thing about "features" is that they aren't linear, they form a tree: *every* technical artifact--hell, every *line* of code--both satisfies some demands and (often) creates new ones.</p><p>Deciding which branches to follow, which to prune and when to do both is complex and ever-changing as the delivery system cycles demands... </p><p>Much of what's wrong with "product thinking" and "agile" today can be explained as a consequence of placing this responsibility in the hands of folks that neither understand this, nor are accountable to those who do.</p><p><a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>programming</span></a> <a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/computing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>computing</span></a> <a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/systems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>systems</span></a> <a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/technicalDecisionMaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technicalDecisionMaking</span></a></p>

Mx Verda<p>I heard Annihilation was about grief or relationships. I'm interested af in Scavenger's Reign. </p><p>I feel like we have a rough indentation / substructure of how we will process things from birth, but that every event thereon will shape it further. </p><p>As well, we know ourselves in reference to others: "I'm like A, not like B, but most like C. What lies beyond C? I might see myself reflected best over there." </p><p>"Rules do not exist to bind you; they exist so you may know your freedoms." <br>Parameters outline a given environment within which to experiment and explore. It's one antidote to Blank Page Syndrome, for example.</p><p><a href="https://nebula.tv/videos/talefoundry-fiction-about-nobody/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"

Then completely rewritten when it was purchased by a large corp. Surely the importance of C in stability is due to the corporate infrastructure. I would have thought the brightest people would use the best new tools for prototyping and proof-of-concept for a new business, then sell it and move on.

amen zwa, esq.<p>There are two kinds of <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/systems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>systems</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>programming</span></a>: small and large. By "small", I mean real-time control system, embedded software, or a device driver, the kind that people smarter and ballsier than I would happily write in hexadecimal. By "large", I mean operating system, communications protocol, compiler, database engine, and so on.</p><p>It is a fool's errand to design a new language that might replace C in the "small" space. For this type of software, assembly is too craggy, and C++ is too lumpy. Only Forth comes close to C, here.</p><p>And it is a herculean task to design a new language that might displace C++ in the "large" space. Countless new languages have tried, and only a few saw some success: Go and Rust, and perhaps Swift, Zig, Nim, and Odin.</p><p>This duopoly of the C family is both good and bad. This dominance is good, because it engenders stability. But stability in IT is an illusion. On the other hand, this dominance is bad, because it locks in the adopters and locks out the contenders. And there have been countless examples in IT of this lock-in/lock-out, duo-face problem, over the past 70 years.</p><p>What are the alternatives? Well, many arguments could be made in favour of every compiled language in existence. But the two simple choices are these:</p><p>• For the "small" space, there are plenty of cases where Forth is a good choice.<br>• For the "large" space, where safety and security are paramount, the ML family of languages—Standard ML, OCaml (including F# and Reason), and Rust—offer significant advantages over the C family.</p><p>Every modern compiled language is an admixture of the C and the ML families—like Rust. Yet, "new" languages keep cropping up, daily.</p>

(It may be debated whether or not <a href="https://c.im/tags/systems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>systems</span></a> philosophy is itself an ideology..)</p><p>The part where mmt shows taxes to be a dead-end in the financial flow, until spent back into the economy can be simplified/generalized further. Any system with flow will have the same set of logical parts that controls its physics. You need to know the volume that's moving, which includes both the velocity and size of the medium (like pipes & wires) it moves through the subsystems.</p><p>"Rich money" and "poor money" do not spend the same in an economy because of the important differences in their flows. Both taxes and profits inflate/increase the totals moving through the system, but to different areas. Profits flow up into the hands of the wealthy, and then 'trickle down' to the economy again (maybe, someday). It's very unidirectional, and most goes laterally to other wealthy nodes.</p><p>Taxing profits is *more* important than taxing incomes for this reason, otherwise, it's dead-end value for the system as a whole.</p>
