Being unable to start a project without doing 5 years of legal wrangling once you put shovel to earth may not be a "ban", but it sure doesn't encourage development.

Just Devil's Advocate..

but why is this a problem?

There are other states without the regulations that these businesses apparently find offensive. Why can't the manufacturing be spun up in those states?

Serious question.


Funny you'd mention that, when Notepad had a CVE in it's markdown parsing recently.


I mean I remember when Penny Arcade Ram ads for games and such and they only ran the ads if the approved of the game. The ads were worth clicking into. They sold a real product for a cost approximating its value.

Now ads are just scams


I think bridging this syntax onto legacy checked exceptions from java would make a lot of sense.


Sounds like checked and unchecked exceptions.

I mean, this could be a syntax wrapper for java checked exceptions right?

Those are isomorphic to Result<_, Err> in that you must handle or propagate the error. The syntax is different, sure.


Correct. Although the performance characteristics are different. An exception in Java generates a stack trace, which is relatively expensive. So not a great idea in un-exceptional code paths that need to perform well.


Stack trace collection is optional. If you actually hit a performance problem on a checked exception path you just override the stack trace collection not to happen. I do this in most of my projects that use checked exceptions as domain errors. Only once you have to panic, i.e wrap in an unchecked exception, stack trace collection happens.


I tried to resize my already mostly fullscreen window now, and I cant, as it always triggers the hot corner for notes. I guess I have to have full sized windows then.


I see it too. What the heck?


That's the paid upgrade for "enterprise" level quality.


Luckily, there are lots of mods which make the base game more. I really enjoyed my bobs + angels run. I'm sure it would be even more fun if you opted into quality on top to really go mad.


It was IMAP sync between the Gmail server and the Outlook/Yahoo/etc server.

Then you have a regular Gmail account and get notifications, spam checking, mobile push notifications etc.


Thank you! I never knew this was a thing.

So it was only available for a small list of services?
