MCP is already deterministic. What's huge about it is that it has automatic API discovery and integration built-in. It's a bit rough yet but I think we will only see how it's getting improved more and more.

So, WSDL?

You really want to use WSDL? OpenAPI v3 would be a much better fit. But it has a tone of features that are completely unnecessary for this use-case. What if we just stripped it down to input and output json schemas? Oh wait ... we just invented MCP.

WSDL just told you what API was there and create the interface for you in code.

It actually never tried to figure out what API call you actually needed based on what the user asked and how to handle it in real time.

I mean it could, but WSDL was already superseded by REST.

Yes, WSDL is great for it, now go ahead and convince people. What is your marketing budget?

no, thank you

So they can already implement the smell of files restored from the Recycle Bin

I don't think we should be surprised by this. A creature that needs to operate its body in 3d environment, perform complex manipulations with objects, participate in social interactions, probably use some sort of planning to optimise pollen harvesting activities has very good chances to be acquainted with the concept of time in one way or another.

What is indeed fascinating is how scientists invent all these experiments

> you can run out of space at one partition, but have lot of free space at another

that's exactly the point — you can run out of space in your /home but that does not affect, for example, /var. or vice versa, log explosion in /var is contained within its own partition and does not clog the entire filesystem.

Logs should had a limit, and dealing with partitions is inconvenient for home user. How do you easily change allocation of space between partition?

Also, there are quotas for this purpose.

very important for /var/log, pretty easy to have log spamming app fill the drive, and you don't want logs filling get your database into out of disk space state

One could use a trigger for this. All we need is to setup a trigger that would delete all expired records looking at some timestamp column on update. That would eat up some latency but as was said, most projects would find it good enough anyway.

Probably better to use partitioned table and drop old partitions.

I use pg cron for this. But I don't have a need for TTL to be to the minute accurate, or even to the hour.

Does it fix array indexing starting from 1?

If someone could reform patent law in such a way that it could be done in one country without jeopardising its interests, how could this be done?

LANAI, but maybe some kind of free market global license auction would better incentivize invention and reward prior art. Perhaps even outcompete the current authorities.

Clearly stovepiping the generation of IP monopolies and laundering them across borders and through unrelated court systems is a captured perverse incentive structure.

Why?

The article is from 2018 and that should be mentioned in the title

I would love to see an update on what has improved and what is the same

Yeah even the flag they are talking about doesn't exist in Chrome anymore. Skia is the only text rendering I ever suffer under Linux, so whether or not Skia works properly is the only thing that makes a difference to me.

On hi-res screens most of it is irrelevant

Yes definitely. I stopped reading after the OS X section because it was clearly talking about a different era.

Is anything similar possible with Wayland?

Wayland is a protocol, X11 is both protocol and a library. X11 client has much less functionality than Wayland compositor. Writing Wayland compositor is usually done with wlroots library to handle barebone stuff, but it has its own flaws: https://inclem.net/2021/04/17/wayland/writing_a_wayland_comp...
