I don't think the class example works, because you wouldn't operate on a class hierarchy in code. Pipes is all well and good but unless I'm implementing it myself I don't need to care about the examples.

If you want to sell this to ordinary programmers you need to take another step down to the concrete level. Show two generic functions that take a category and show how they are useful for two different categories (heck, I think I can think of one myself: it should be easy to write a function that takes a type-aligned list [c a b, c b d, ... c y z] and combines them as a single c a z). If it's a useful abstraction then that really shouldn't be hard.

"New jobs created" means nothing. Somebody hiring 100 popcorn salesmen and firing 100 popcorn salesmen causes 100 jobs created. You want to look at net increase of jobs.

Then you want to compare net increase in jobs to population growth. Because if population is growing faster of slower than jobs, you get the real problem of unemployment.

But then again you could go straight at looking unemployment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unemployment_in_the_United_Sta...

It's remarkably stable. All variations from about 5-8% are pretty easily explained by economic downturns. You might also notice that even during WWII U.S. did not reach 0% unemployment. Almost as if apparent amount of jobs could not sway unemployment more than few percentage points.

The introduction of plausible deniability in encryption is actually the ultimate nightmare from an ethic perspective:

The torturer, of course, knows about plausible deniability. And of course, technically, plausible deniability is not limited to two levels (outer and inner volume), but can be performed on an arbitrary number of levels. From the torturer perspective, he has to continue to torture forever, because any passphrase revealed might not be the one for the "true" stash of information. In reality, the torturer does not stop at the first possible instance of revelation, but on the last (which will never be in this case).

Plausible deniability actually prevents the torturer from rewarding the victim for the revelation of information by ending his/her pain. Instead, plausible deniability opens the spiral of endless violence.
They are still in the denial and fight-back stages.
He says: "The study should also confirm that people who are ideologically opposed to advertising are a minority compared to the ones who have installed an ad blocker simply because digital promotions and tracking have become unbearable".

This shows that they still don't see the big picture - that it's not just in digital media that ads have completely crossed the line, it's everywhere, from TV, radio and print, to billboards, jumbo-trons and corporate names on structures and landmarks.
They are still clinging to the idea that they can go back to good times if they just reform some of their practices.

This is the end result of one group (publishers) relying on a revenue stream (advertisers) that destroys their own service and credibility. They still don't understand this.

I don't understand how this helps. From what I've seen, it shows a list of files and directories and you "build" a path by selecting/opening them, navigating using some keys to go up/down in the list.

How is that more efficient than "tabtabbing" (hitting tab two times) to see possible completions? To me it seems less efficient to use up/down than hitting the few necessary keys to get the autocomplete you need.
I agree with your criticism, but I don't think sponsoring a conference is definitive proof of good will or alignment of interests. Some of the companies that sponsor Linux and FOSS conferences also take actions, for example in court, that are against the interests of those communities.

My pet peeve is people who see or read about a single festival in another culture, then talk about how "we have no culture, not like those people over there and their rich one". Yet we still go and see movies, wear certain kinds of fashion, go to sportsball events, celebrate the birth days of those near and dear, participate in office kris kringles, learn to play a particular set of musical instruments, eat out at restaurants, live in nuclear families, argue over how to set the cutlery for a dinner party... so on and so forth.
> They still don't understand this.

I am pretty sure that they fully understand it but they can not openly admit it because that would completely destroy their ad revenues forever. Instead they try to get back to the good old days somehow because money from ads is the method which requires the lowest effort on their side.

Open office is a deal breaker for me, because it simply underlines the ignorant approach of the company towards their employees - especially coders.

I have yet to see someone that performs better when constantly distracted or interrupted. Socializing ? I do that in my free time at other places and with people that I choose on my own.

Employee monitoring ? If you need such desperate measure to ensure that workers actually do their work, there's something terribly wrong.

Best setup from my personal experience are small 2-4 person offices.

Western German rocket artillery units (150th-650th battalion) were equipped with nuclear-tipped Lance/Sergeant SRBMs. The American forces only had control over the warheads (and "control" usually meant "were responsible for patrolling the storage shed holding the warheads, while being surrounded by several German mechanized divisions").
Some countries like the UK have a "Sweat of the Brow" [0] doctrine which lets them claim copyright by virtue of the effort put in to compile the work. However it isn't recognized in the U.S because they doesn't see this as requiring creativity so it doesn't count as a derivative work. This has the benefit that companies can't circumvent the public domain without altering the work, but it also disincentives them from digitizing older works. I don't know if french law acknowledges the doctrine or not. Regardless it is pretty unbecoming of a project started by government archivists and headed by a national library, though I do understand that they might want to recoup some of their costs.

Hi guys,

I've built a news app, Pipes News (https://appsto.re/in/IIun9.i). I've gotten some great response on the app store but a lot of people are giving us flak for not being on android. Since we're a bootstrapped startup we can't afford to be on both platforms at the moment. Is it still necessary to be on Android?

Exactly, they could turn this into a beautiful destination with parking etc. Charge a small fee to pay for maintenance, close after 6pm. Everybody is happy.
I can remember one day rate contract I was arranging, where all the replies from the manager appeared to be happening after 6-7pm at night and became slightly concerned that their idea of a day was not the normal 9-5ish. Turns out he answered most emails late evening.
It sounds like he's discussing some fire road that probably isn't practical to turn into a real road (this is steep, hilly terrain where most buildable space has been used) but there are reasonable places to park and hike like Griffith Observatory.
Those are superficial examples. It's things more like social pressures that exist that you may not even be aware of. Acting and thinking in certain ways without fully knowing why.
But at least they knew what they were getting and they actually got it. This is not just virtual, for now it's straight up imaginary.(also, I believe that most of the value in EvE comes from the in-game credits that can be collected just by playing rather than direct payments, but I might be wrong)
Don't forget the category 1a - regular people renting out a spare room even though it's against terms they themselves rent their flat on. This can sometimes also contribute to the neighbourhood social problems.

If you have increased desire to get fit, do you believe that people are only going to do that by drinking less soda and going to the gym, and aren't going to adjust their eating habits? Speak to any gym member who attends reasonably regularly (at least once a week) and you'll find they think more about what they eat because eating badly makes exercise harder.
Wow, I'm famous.
The majority of people I know that use, and the ones I meet online seem content to be addicted. Outside of funding issues and the occasional "what's sex drive again?" they seem to love it (on apart from when they must make a BM). It enables them to handle things they otherwise couldn't. I've met young kids with bone diseases leaving them vulnerable to repeated bone breakage. A fent lollypop later and they're beyond happy, and also have left pain behind.

Stalinism is defined by policies of state terror, state centralization, purging the government and maintaining a cult of personality. Those are pretty extreme positions to hold.

Historically, many of Stalin's actions were not seen keenly in France, including Stalin's Gulags, his pact with Hitler, and over the cold war, his territorial aggressivity over the USSR's satellite countries. You may note that France was very decidedly on the other side of the Iron Curtain.

There definitely were quite a few socialists, there were a few communists, there probably were few Leninists, but I doubt there were any Stalinists. I'd be interested in the scientist's name if you found one.

People often forget that this is a not a new situation for Chris Roberts, his last game had more or less the same story: after a great but relatively classic game in Starlancer, he set out to make Freelancer, with grandiose claims and everything ever will be in it in a global universe. After years of development with no game in sight his studio ran out of money, was bought by Microsoft and the game was streamlined and released with a lot of features cut.
As a (slightly obsessed) fan of the genre Freelancer has the aura of a "great" game, but in truth it was not top of its line, but good space game were already very rare back then and it touched a lot more people.

> The game was initially announced by Chris Roberts in 1999, and following many production schedule mishaps and a buyout of Digital Anvil by Microsoft, it was eventually released in March 2003.

> Originally, Roberts promised features such as automated flight maneuvers, dynamic economies, and a multiplayer mode that could host thousands of players, but diminished versions of these features were implemented in the final release. The game's initial technical demos impressed reviewers, but after the Microsoft buyout and Roberts' departure from Digital Anvil, critics had doubts about the game. Reviewers judged the final product technically good but failing to fulfill their initial expectations.

Personally I hope SC will succeed, but I backed for the solo campaign (squadron 42) with lot of nostalgia for wing commander and Starlancer, and I have absolutely no hopes of the promises holding for the multiplayer, never had. In the meantime Elite 4 with all its own flaws scratched my itch for multiplayer (I would have loved for that one to be more solo like First Encounter).

Note that the game draws extreme and usually critics are very aggressive, and defenders of the game as well, I merely wants to point out the parallel to the last time Roberts did this.
But how to set up your inbox in such a way that it only allows reception of nice emails after work time?
There was a long article about one of the supporters who had paid in $30k towards SC. It was very clear he did not do so purely for the virtual ships but rather identified closely with the project and simply wanted to support Chris Roberts and his vision. I don't think you contribute at that level without understanding that you aren't buying virtual ships but instead supporting a vision that may or may not work out.

The main problem with adblocking is you never go back; they can't hope to "win back" anyone, that's absolutely hopeless.

There may be a little bit of hope in stopping the hemorrhage: making people that have not yet installed an adblocker to not do it, if they can paint the move as not really worth it. But even that is going to be very hard, so we'll see.
