That's not good. We can put an instance into a runtime box, pass it to another module, and now there are potentially two different instances to choose from in the other module. We'd have to ban moving around instances in runtime data if we are to preserve class coherence, which is unsatisfactory.
I've had the same experience. If they'd literally done nothing but make sure the product doesn't lose data in the last two years since they last CEO announced a refocus on quality they'd be in a much better spot. With people's data you don't really get a second chance. Evernote seems to treat dataloss as "well, you know, it's only a couple of kbytes we lost of yours" - while to the customer what they lost has disproportionately more value than the amount implies.

As for me, I'm now a lifer anti-customer of Evernote.

'Context' does not change facts or logic: identity is part of documents, the war gets bigger. You've written a lot, it's mostly true, but nothing actually addresses the comment you're responding to.

Regarding 'unmasking': many doxxers use this argument: when they do publish people's information, they're unmasking bad actors, when their opponents do it, they're doxxing. For example Sarah Jeong, the author of the book you mention, wrote for The Verge, which tacitly endorses doxxing by ignoring it when performed by political groups it supports.

There is a lot of controversy on whether helmets save lives. First, "it is impossible to build a cycle helmet that will offer significant impact protection" [1]. In Australia, 80% of cyclist death happen with a helmet.

Second, countries which have made the helmet mandatory have seen a decrease of cyclism and an increase of obesity and heart diseases, to the point that it increases the global mortality [2].

This may sound very disturbing if you come from a country where helmets are mandatory. In France, they are not.

In case you wonder, there are also stories (albeit probably less than unanimous) that cycling at the red light is safer. It is my personal belief that I'd never go ahead when it's green for the cars in my city (Lyon), but it's much more controversial. Some cities (like Paris[3] allow jumping the red light).

Finally, many European countries, including London and Paris, have developed bike stations (take a bike, 1.50€ for a 24hrs card, with deposit). Making helmets mandatory would be a problem.

No, a lot of SUVs are basically raised estate cars. This is a raised sedan. When Mercedes did the same thing and said the new MLC (which looks identical to a Model X) is an SUV they got laughed at. When Tesla does it it's apparently all-OK.

But really, they couldn't build a "proper" electric SUV, the poor aerodynamics would kill the range of a car which already has ~20% less range than the Model S.

Do more or less than 80% of cyclists wear a helmet? That stat is worthless without qualification (in my experience the vast majority of people in Australia wear helmets, especially when cycling on the road).

Not that I disagree with your general point; for the moment I am undecided.

I think you are. I think you are missing the possibility to write a total function of type `List[Int] => Option[List[Int]] @@ MinSize[_5]` (I'm still writing Scala-ish types because that's where I feel comfortable). This gets you into a world where you can deal with your previously-unsized `List` as a sized `List` (either you can map over your `Option` or you can fold the `Some` and `None` cases together by providing some default).

IMHO Evernote is feature complete. It would be great if the company for a while switched focus from growth to support and just collected revenue. However who knows maybe revenue is not their goal and they just wait to be bought by Facebook.

Btw does anyone remember this article? https://www.fastcompany.com/3012870/dialed/evernotes-quest-t... Have they changed their mind yet?
I agree it's sort of grating and trite to hear these articles throwing out some random numbers chosen from a bell curve for their journalistic impact and then touted abstractly.

However, I've also just got back from living three years in London, and compared to living in 3 American cities and one Brazilian city, I can tell you the difference of living in a truly pedestrian friendly city with solid multi-modal transport options leads to a lot more walking, and I felt the health benefits of this. Even considering that I cycle commuted in all of the aforementioned cities, just the convenience of not needing a car (nor uber or taxis for that matter) led to a lot more walking above and beyond my natural recreational activity which I would find a way to do anywhere I lived. It's hard to quantify, but it's very very real. In the US there are very few places where you can live and not feel severely restricted without a car—you can do it in New York, and you can sort of get away with it in SF (although a lot of people's lifestyles would collapse if they had to give up their Uber and Lyft to instead rely on Muni)—but most places metros are tiny or non-existent, and buses are primarily used by the poor and have terrible service. There's no doubt in my mind that this has huge impacts on public health, but of course it's impossible to isolate the effect and quantify it since countries that do these things differently have all sorts of confounding cultural differences.
How is this so much different than HA? It's not like their hangouts are unknown and unlisted and members make a big deal of showing where they belong.
It depends on the language. For instance in Scala you can simulate collections of fixed size as in https://github.com/milessabin/shapeless/blob/master/core/src...

Then, at runtime, you can cast an unsized list to a sized list giving - say - a function List[A] => Option[Sized[List[A], N5]] that will fail if the list is not of size 5. From then on you can go on letting the compiler keep track of lengths.

Of course, this does not work at all if you have no clue what size your input will have

Not having folding comments encourages me to read a good random sample of comments (as opposed to only the root comments) which has usually resulted in some fantastic discussion. On Reddit I read root comments and then instinctively collapse the remainder.

That's not to say folding comments wouldn't be nice, I'm just providing some counterarguments for them.

The problem is that most people think helmet is there to safe lives. It is not. It is there to protect you from head injuries.

If you are in a bike accident, you are more likely to be seriously injured from other damaged such a broken leg or serious bruising to the torso. I wear a helmet when commuting to work, but I have my doubts if it will save my life if have a big accident with a car.

>Also: "emboldened to cycle in from the eastern edge of the city without a helmet" - I'm not sure, but are cars a massively dominating factor in bicycle safety? I'd imagine there's still risks, like hitting someone, or a curb, where a helmet might come in life-saving.

There are still risks, but serious cycling injuries and deaths are massively dominated by bycycle-car interactions. Theory being that on a bike... I'm usually going under 20mph, So the force involved in a single-vehicle crash is whatever energy that 20mph imparts to my 200lbs of flesh, rubber, carbon and aluminum. Yeah, it can kill you, but usually doesn't.

If you are hit by a car, first, the thing is quite often going faster than 20mph, and the mass involved is at least one order of magnitude greater. That's a lot more energy to dissipate into the soft and crunchy cyclist.

cars make the roads very dangerous for anyone not in a car.

All that said, I personally wear a full-face helmet on my commute, even though nearly all of it is on a nearly empty mixed-use path that prohibits cars. Yes, without cars, helmet or no, I'm a lot less likely to die. But even if the energy involved is all my own, I'd much rather crash while wering a serious helmet than with a bare head.

I use a bell super 2r mips, and I keep the chinbar on. I've already had one accident (as a child, colliding with another bicycle) where I landed on my helmet and my front teeth. Fortunately for me, I kind of had a bugs bunny thing going, and so the Dentist just evened out the jagged bits of my front teeth, and my mouth probably ended up looking better for it, but yeah, I'd rather not repeat that.

I don't think the chinbar is likely to save my life; the jaw provides a reasonable crumple-zone to protect the brain if the jaw hits first, but the chinbar will save me, in case of a crash where I land on my chin, a whole lot of pain, medical expense, and possibly missed work.

My general attitude is that a helmet isn't that big of a deal to wear, and it significantly decreases the seriousness of injuries I might receive while cycling. Further, if I am going to bother to wear the helmet (most of the cost is in the inconvenience of carrying it, for me. For most people, there's a cost in terms of style, but I'm wearing cargo shorts already.) I don't see any reason to buy any but the most protective helmet that I can get that doesn't interfere with my cycling (for example, it needs adequate ventilation; thus you don't see me busting out my arai) - You can get a real top-end bicycle helmet for two hundred bucks; Considering what medical care costs, one crash is gonna pay for a lifetime of really nice helmets.

To be clear, this is what I do to protect my head, (and my face) - I don't mean to tell other people what they should do with their head.

So modern!

Isn't any library released today, which improves on libraries from yesterday, by definition "modern"?

Whenever I hear "modern" I just picture the developer thumbing his nose at the old fuddy-duddies who don't know how to code and spew out garbage. Yeah yeah, I get it -- the older stuff sucks. But maybe I'm imagining it. If people here tell me that the word "modern" is truly free of derision, I'm open to that viewpoint.

That is because it has never been necessary before, because up until now you have always had a binary copy in Xcode -> Organizer -> Archives. Please think.

Also note that I am refraining from judging you or anyone you know on the telling account that neither you nor anyone you know have, for years, had the need to understand your binaries.

If your binary has a chance of functioning differently on someone else's device than on your testing devices, then you should care. But then again, your business may not depend on having an app that works, but on producing a lot of apps.

If you are religious in trusting Apple's decisions despite all your years as an Apple developer, then you should at least acknowledge that some developers and their companies may have different (less faith-based) values than yourself.

All biking accidents that I've heard of involve cars.

In the city, the most dangerous things are driving next to parked cars (people open doors without looking) and crowded intersections (cars turn without looking).

On the country side, the most dangerous thing are cars passing cyclists without sufficient distance. Drivers are really bad at estimating the distance of their side mirror to cyclists.

Anyway, that's anectotal evidence from the handful of serious accidents that people I know had. Personally I've been lucky so far.

So are the cases of "hybrid" kernels a victory for microkernel side of the debate, or the monolithic side?

Neither iOS/OS X or NT manage to get the robustness, security or compartmentalization advantages of microkernels. I guess they get modularity and dynamic loading, but so does Linux. So Linux, X and NT are all mongrels, with iOS/OS X having microkernel roots and Linux having monolithic roots, and NT being a ground-up designed mongrel.
