@cadey That means that there will always be a pointer between two non-equal pointers!

What is this? This is a GPS receiver made by Trimble, one of the biggest GPS companies. Why is it shaped like an ambulance? Good question. This is a 6 channel GPS receiver from 1993, which was relatively early for consumer GPS tech. On the back is a Motorola 68HC000 and 64k of RAM. Look it even has a little red light on top. And a silk screened steering wheel.

@charlotte My old work laptop would fail to start up the wifi card if it was connected to power during boot, but that may have been a Linux issue more than a firmware issue.

@noracodes Crosses fingers for tail recursion landing in Rust.

A optimizer friendly language I would put on there would probably be SML, which have had a lot of interesting optimizations done on it for example the precursor to the Rust memory system, MLKit was implemented in it.
On the other hand I think this and Futhark might be optimizer friendly because they both are functional languages. I don't know of a functional language I would think of as control-friendly.

@Ruth_Mottram @yosh A quick pull from DST shows that it is a bit more, but not by much.

@yosh @Ruth_Mottram Now I have only lived on Østerbro, but by far most parking spots there are under zone pay. I can't say I have parked much in central Copenhagen, but I did not feel like free parking spots were abundant.
And its the same at the university, or in the Fælled park.
I knew of a few small places nearby outside of pay zones, but most were not.

@yosh I have an email public on my blog and I got no spam on it before it ended up on the front page of Hackernews which I found pretty fun. I have still have not received a real mail on it.

@yosh @Ruth_Mottram This kind of reasoning is how the new property price assessment have gone completely mad. Their way of reasoning is that any property should be priced after the most efficient way to use it. That is not a great way price properties in general.

These parking lots going to 100s of kr. are not for general parking. In Copenhagen parking in general is much more expensive getting up to around that per day which is more reasonably priced for that kind of prime real estate parking. (and that is with a period card which is the least expensive way)

That said it is still free for electrical (and Hydrogen) cars, which is just a decision by the city.

@yosh "must" is a odd translation in the title, a better word would probably be "will" though that is what happens when you use one word for multiple meanings, which Danish does quite a bit.

@charlotte Well you could just use freeBSD, but yeah that is what I meant with no clear way, I am not even sure if you can do it with a feature because of how they work with Cargo depedencies.

@charlotte It ships both, but does not really have a clear way of disabling it.

@LunaFoxgirlVT Actually looking at that it may be possible for a smaller company to get around that looking at the "Revision kan fravælges" box here: https://erhvervsstyrelsen.dk/virksomheder-med-begraenset-ansvar

@LunaFoxgirlVT tbh I think your best bet would be to find someone who can guide you in it because of the odd kinds of income. You would likely need to find a "revisor" anyway for external validation of the books.

@solarmerps The classic example of this is Windows 95 which would delay freeing of memory if the executable was SimCity

@jhwgh1968 @charlotte At least for me we usually use 12h time (without am or pm) when speaking and just use the context to figure out if it is am or pm. And then mostly use a 24h time when writing.
