You need to understand the context. The quote in Gita was to motivate the best warrior of the time at the battlefront facing opponents who were mainly his cousins and uncles.

In that context the quote is about performing the duties you were born to do without overthinking the consequences.


the context makes it even worse. its a strange kind of tribalism that is being promoted here. "do what you are asked to without understanding the real consequences". btw war is actual zero sum usually.


War is often times even negative sum game.


Do what you are asked to ≠ Your duty.

Duty of a warrior is to fight for his country/tribe/side. Duty of a king might be to reduce suffering for his subjects.

> This introduces performance issues larger than the typical ones associated with vtable lookups.

Don't know about other programming languages but with Objective-C due to IMP caching the performance is close to C++ vtable

  Name Iterations Total time (sec) Time per (ns)
  C++ virtual method call 1000000000 1.5 1.5
  IMP-cached message send 1000000000 1.6 1.6

This is so true. I switch from iPhone 5s to iPhone SE to iPhone 13 mini. After my current phone dies I don't know what phone would I get next.


C has many syntactic sugar and [] operator is one of them. -> is another popular one.


> After a formal investigation in 1907, psychologist Oskar Pfungst demonstrated that the horse was not actually performing these mental tasks, but was watching the reactions of his trainer.

Sounds like machine learning


Sounds like a failure mode in machine learning.


> The tooling idea is particularly appropriate for JavaScript since many developers actually code in TypeScript and rely on compilers such as Babel, Webpack or the TypeScript compiler to output JavaScript.

Hot take


Can you not simply use a feature flag that you control remotely to toggle the app between fake and real modes? You just need to toggle the flag on when submitting for review
