maybe we can have some keyboard plugin/"mode" that merges letters to form symbols in special way?

Korean windows have a "special-emoji" keyboard that can be invoked by: 1. type a charactor 2. press 'hanja' key 3. (wild special character selection menu appears)

example: § (from 'ㅁ') / ㈜ (from 'ㅁ') / ㎖ (from 'ㄹ')

if 80 devs all read the same part same way, it won't make much of a difference.

maybe the issue is we aren't using static analysis enough / don't have enough static analysis tools?

newb here -- please expand more on this.

Are there stuff that kotlin's pattern-matching can't do?

because most ML libraries are python-first...

as for other stuff (web-servers, what not), I don't think python can beat kotlin / typescript / etc

but those leaks weren't 100% believable --- this case, it's different. (or apple can just change their future products...)

but scala's cousin kotlin doesn't seem to suffer from this a lot... kotlin library-packages don't have kotlin-version to their download link... maybe I'm missing something?

for most simple HTTP webservers, python maintains somewhat OK-ish source/binary compatibility between python-versions. But my experience with scala was things breaking between scala-versions / waiting for some library to compile with next scala-version...

I'm surprised why scala couldn't solve it better than python -- I mean, scala's a compiled language, so it should have more wriggle-room...

is it something deeply ingrained to rust? or is it something rust is working on?

maybe they're producing too many devices, so ended up filling up SN space for some device type?

well Google's using all three in different ways...

and another trend on prog. langs: they're becoming more and more similar feature-wise (eg. pattern matching)

maybe Google, FB, Amazon are victims of their own 'successful ML algorithms' or some sellers that are gaming the advertisement system?
