Not really, if absent means “no change”, present means “update” and null means “delete” the three values are perfectly well defined.

For what it’s worth, Amazon and Microsoft do it like this in their IoT offerings.

Rust has perfectly fine tools to deal with such issues, namely enums. Of course that cascades through every bit of related code and is a major pain.

A fuel cell does not mean it’s an ICE. It will still use an electric motor and probably even a small battery.

Hydrogen ICE exist, but are more complex and less efficient.

You could use Hydrogen to produce so-called e-fuels (we had a huge debate about them in Germany), but those can typically be used in normal ICE vehicels.

In the bottom picture it looks like the top “port” is just an air intake.

I would guess a swappable battery would be separated from the vehicle, similar to a gas bottle for a grill.

The battery would be rented for a small deposit and on swapping you only pay the energy + service fee.

I guess you could also buy one to own, but then could not swap that.

That’s how it would make sense, at least.

I mean, other file sync apps upload everything to a third party while you’re working with the device.
Then, when you use another device the first one can be turned off.

Then why does the kernel have a crypto API?

Checkmate, Satoshi Torvalds!

Most x86 EFIs are, so the comparison is not really fair.

That’s Canonical building Mir 2.

I hate thinking of usernames and I am extremely bad at it.

There also isn’t a loop instruction though.

Same with the marketing around 'high protein" foods.

Not here, because it’s being used as a function argument.

It’s not even controllable RGB? Just shitty rainbow all the time?

You don’t use GNOME to get rid of bloat. You use it to get a fully functional opinionated desktop without tweaking too much.

If you want no “bloat”, whatever that is, use some minimal compositor like Sway or something.

Personally, I say: Give me all the bloat, I love it! I love every cool and quality of life feature there is. I have enough space on any desktop computer.

The truth is that there is value in both a generalist and a specialist.

I think that’s fairly obvious with the smaller text and context.
