Is there a #European #fighter jet that could end reliance on US & its F-35?

#Portugal & #Canada considering buying #Swedish JAS 39 #Gripen E/F as replacement for #American #F-35 due to concerns over kill switch. Is it a viable alternative?

Gripen is less expensive than F-35. Estimated operating cost of between $4,700 & $7,000 an hour compared to F35’s $33,000 to $40,000 an hour.

Why is F# so little used and why is the community so small? Actually, every time I play with F# (especially in conjunction with ionide.io/ #vscode extension for F#), I have to say that F# is a really fun programming language. In combination with FSI, Ionide and Type Inference it often feels like a dynamic language. You can use many different styles to programme with F#, but what I particularly like is that Railway

#Trump ha interrotto i fondi destinati all’Open Technology Fund, un ente che da oltre un decennio finanzia strumenti digitali per la libertà online.
Questi fondi rappresentano la quasi totalità del budget dell'#OTF e sono essenziali per il sostegno di numerosi progetti, tra cui #Let'sEncrypt, la rete di anonimizzazione #Tor e il negozio di applicazioni open-source #F-Droid, che l’anno scorso hanno ricevuto rispettivamente 800mila, 500mila e 396mila dollari.🤦‍♂️

"Doo de doo why isn't this hook generating?"
Can't create hook at #(10 22.457139763981104): #f

MOTHERFUCK floating point‽ Oh, I'm an ass. I thought I was being fun that my rnd function does FP for (rnd 0), integer for (rnd 1+). Great idea if it's 1977 in BASIC.

Now I get to split this into two functions, AND audit a whole bunch of code.

Ok... to put an end to that discussion if the #F35 / #F-35 #fighter has a #killswitch or not:

IT DOES NOT EFFING MATTER!

Those jets need a TON of maintenance and parts to keep flying. They need the Intel to find their targets which can only be fed to them using #US controlled systems.

Agent #Trump just needs to decide cease supplying those and the jets become WAY less capable immediately and will stop flying pretty damn quick.

@screwtape But Scheme code is usually forwards-compatible forever; R3RS code almost entirely runs on R6/R7RS (you may need to pull in rec macro, and check for nil-punning, #f wasn't enforced as The One True False until R4RS/IEEE). R7RS breaking R6RS and even choosing a different library structure was awful.

Python evolved as a "better Perl/awk/BASIC", and until 3.0 nobody really used it for engineering unless they customized it, like Zope/Zend. So changing a lot is in their snake-nature.

@GossiTheDog My reply if I were a terminated ATC / trainer at FAA would be an old Polish catchphrase:

Not my circus, not my monkeys.

#f.elon screwed this pooch royally and now like the proverbial 10 y/o in the china shop his "parent" (#PresidentKrasnov?) should be told:

"You now have to pay for everything that is broken. And we want cash on the barrel head, no IOUs, no credit card, and you will not be allowed to leave until you pay." 🤬

‘Deadly consequences’: Health agencies reel from thousands of job cuts while critical research grants remain on hold

Firings since February 14 have exceeded 700 each at the CDC and the US Food and Drug Administration, and 1,100 at the National Institutes of Health, although final tallies still weren’t clear, sources told CNN, requesting anonymity because they weren’t authorized to share the information.
