Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Talk about working smarter, not harder. A computer-science student has got the right idea, by building an intriguing code-completion tool that uses deep-learning software to finish lines of source. Train your AI replacement to code like you

Assuming it's as "smart" as gmail's artificial idiocy powered autocomplete, I expect it to work as well as copying code from the question section of randomly selected QA posts.

In this series, we have explored the need for proactive measures to eliminate a class of vulnerabilities and walked through some examples of memory safety issues we’ve found in Microsoft code that could have been avoided with a different language. Now we’ll peek at why we think that Rust represents the best alternative to C and C++ currently available. It gives you a chance to rewrite everything in a new language?
Sorry, that album is *literally* the first through fifth things that comes into my head every time I hear about this language. This was an attempt to avoid repeating myself again.

I have a better idea - LEARN HOW TO F*CKIN WRITE CODE!
You can write crappy code in ANY language, and the language ain't gonna help you.

That class of vulnerabilities could have been avoided in several ways, none of which involve a rewrite in Rust or any other language. Isn't that why they added the str***_s family of functions?

A couple of years back, even researchers would wave off using DNA to store data as something too futuristic to have any practical value. Today, you can extend PostgreSQL with the right software and bio-chemical modules, and run SQL on DNA. SELECT * FROM nucleus WHERE G!=C
