I recall having to maintain an integration to some obscure SOAP API that ate and spit out XML with strict schemas and while I can't remember much about it, I think the integration broke quite easily if the other end changed their API somehow.
I'd like to have high speed railways in my country, not some decades long political conversion project. If we need railways that can go across the borders of our neighboring countries, build new ones instead of upgrading existing ones.
You can run multiple linux distros on linux just fine via KVM/QEMU, there is nothing special WSL offers except that it is a must if you're doomed to use windows.
I think CMake is the perfect balance. You need to write few lines and think about few things before adding a dependency, but usually nothing too crazy. It might not work the first try but that's okay.
Sure, there are various dependencies, but it's nothing like "cargo install crate-name". Cargo makes it so effortless to joink the dumbest dependency for the simplest thing.
Regardless of language, really? I highly doubt that, you don't generally see such problems with C or even C++ because dependencies are more cumbersome to add, especially in a way that's cross-platform.
Yeah, it feels like nothing but a little trick. Why would anyone want to actually use this? The exe simply calls docker, it can embed an image into the exe but even then it first calls docker to load the embedded image.
Russia is like a kid playing with matches. I'm a noob when it comes to aviation, but AFAIK RNAV GPS approaches are quite common? Disrupting that is dangerous.
