Why does short message service protocol have a max. size of 160 charakters?

>inb4 because the protocol was limited to 140 bits

yes, but why? Was this a technical decision? Or was this simply deemed to be the right amount for marketing purposes? Why was it never changed?

This language is like Ruby, with babby-tier helper functions that reduce everything from a for loop upwards reduced to a single word except you're the one manually writing out and defining everything

This is object oriented programming Java style where you write out overtly verbose functions (throwing the idea of inheritance out the window) except it's more redundant and convoluted than that because you have to define where it's being pulled from

An example from Stack Overflow, the man wondering why `setState` is returning `undefined`

class Counter extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);

        this.state = {
            count : 1
        };

        this.delta.bind(this);
    }

    delta() {
        this.setState({
            count : this.state.count++
        });
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <div>
                <h1>{this.state.count}</h1>
                <button onClick={this.delta}>+</button>
            </div>
        );
    }
}

Turns out

this.delta.bind(this);

Should actually be

this.delta = this.delta.bind(this);

Why I can't even begin to justify because this Fischer Price babby's first boilerplate example is so many levels of redundant and roundabout I'm not sure where to begin

I don't understand how someone stupid enough to think this is a good idea is smart enough to make the language and see it through.

So why haven't you joined the Apple world, anon? You really think you won't be grossing people out when you take that rusty Thinkpad to Starbucks and it fills the room with its Chinese musk?

First thing I hear when I walk in is this Mike Montiero guy bitching about Trump and "the rise of American fascism".

How can we stop the politicization of tech; it's annoying as fuck.

Also give me redpills for my coworkers to see entryism in action, if you have any.

Hey, anon, why did you take up a worthless and jobless degree like computer science?
A computer science degree is almost as worthless as a video game degree, or even worse, liberal arts!

i was reading yesterday the gv100 whitepaper
when suddenly

Quality of Service is how quickly the GPU execution resources will be available to process work
for a client upon submission of the work. Volta MPS provides control for MPS clients to specify
what fraction of the GPU is necessary for execution. This control to restrict each client to only a
fraction of the GPU execution resources reduces or eliminates head-of-line blocking where work
from one MPS client may overwhelm GPU execution resources, preventing other clients from
making progress until prior work from another MPS client completes

(page 32)
they literally emulated async and still is almost 60% behind amd on it
cant wait to see their "async" in work while cloging poor 4 core cpu's

I'm a faggot and I have a small blog that nobody visits, but I want to have some kind of analytics to see how many and from which country people are maybe visiting me. What is alternative to pic related that respects Freedoms(tm)?
