Usually, the intent is not to infuriate you, but to get context. The problem may be crystal clear to you, but to a onlooker, it might be completely ambiguous.

Imagine asking "how do you say 'house' in German?" Well that depends: is that a verb meaning "accomodate"? Is that a noun? Does that mean "a building," as in "three-bedroom house"? Or "a dynasty," as in "house Stark?" Or music, as in "house music"? Or something completely different? https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/house

Well, in fact, the only thing it had to be right now, is functional, which indeed I believe it is. There's no css, just hand coded html. And it was ready in a snap. But if I ever change it it will remain functional in the first place. It won't feature any floating menu buttons that try to escape your mouse button, or screenwide pictures of managerial looking types at a conference desk. Frames seem to be a bit difficult for search engines. But for now they'll have to do.
I know pro photographers who use VSCO to edit their iPhone shots to upload to Instagram, as the tools are so much more powerful than IG's own. It's a great app.
The plane example was a weak cherry pick in a weak article overall.

Trump is a bigot, but it's too early to say whether he's a fascist.

FDR forced Japanese citizens into internment camps, but history does not remember him as a fascist.

I'm not being an apologist for Trump's comments. But they're just not enough to classify him as a fascist.

If he advocates for more foreign wars, additions to the Patriot Act, or nationalizing entire industries, then we're getting warmer. Though, maybe he can claim one or two of those.

A more accurate analogy might be:

You are a small sandwich manufacturer. Supermarkets are the only shops in town. The supermarket won't pay you, the sandwich manufacturer, to stock your goods. In fact, they may charge you for the privilege. Or they may charge their hungry customers. Or both.

Too Good to Go – Save food, save money, save the planet
It was an evolution. The party started as an anti-capitalist worker's party with a left-wing manifesto and parts of the party wanted to collaborate with the communist party.

However, Hitler jettisoned the left-wing aspects, cozied up to the capitalists and aristocrats to fund the growth of the party and reshaped the party inspired by Mussolini's fascists. The early socialist manifestos were an embarrassment for the party as it grew and it never attempted any of what that early party sought like disbanding the army, expropriating land from owners etc.

Here is the the early manifesto. The only thing recognisable from what the Nazi party eventually became is the anti-semitism:

yep, "Impact Factor" (IF) is the term, and (just to clarify) it encourages but does not force. there are open access journals like PLoS w/ significant IF, albeit not comparable to Nature.

since the link below was written, PLoS has become not only open access for articles but also open access for the data those articles are based on. imo, open access to data (w/ privacy measures, of course, for human subjects) is of the same order of importance as access to articles.

There's still a huge number of very active phpBB-type bulletin boards out their, with all the usual drama. They turn up whenever you search for help on a random non-tech topic. I love to visit the world for a little bit. It's like walking into a real locals' pub, where the regulars are at the bar chatting to the landlord about the crazy stuff Dave got up to at the weekend. They're probably the same people who go home and post on their homebrew, beekeeping, classic car, medieval history etc, etc forums.
I have a friend who lives as close as one can legally live to a 100kW FM transmitter. He received a pair of very cheap speakers when he built a new computer but was unable to use them because if they were plugged in the radio signal would come right out of the speakers.

It seemed that the signal path into the speakers was through the input wire (rather than, say, the power cable or the wires between the amplifier and the cone). From what I understand from my undergraduate analog signals course I'm suspicious of the signal actually coming from the transmission tower itself, unless the speakers had just the right configuration to act as a simple diode-rectifier envelope receiver (terminology likely to be incorrect), which I would think of as unlikely for an FM signal.

It may be that the signal came from some other path related to the relaying of the signal from the studio (~1 mi away) to the tower, but I don't know enough about the specifics of the radio station's configuration to say more.
Delving into a huge, old, debt-riddled microservice codebase to make changes is even more hard and scary, because now it's in multiple repositories and it has a lot more networking code.

Google Search is an elegant tool of a more...civilized...age. A long time ago, it used to have more result pages than the first one. (Technically, it still has them - but nobody ever goes there: just click through the first page results, or try something else.)

In other words: just because Google ranks a result best doesn't actually mean it is best for you: I have frequently found the actual result I was looking for two or three result pages down.
I don't know about the specifics talked about here, but he's absolutely right that no matter how much raw talent you have, eventually you will find yourself facing a challenge that you can't beat. And at that point, if you want to keep improving, you will have to start learning the same kinds of engineering discipline and using the same kinds of external aids that everyone else has had to use all along.

I've seen a few people go through this process (and experienced it myself) at various stages in their careers and everyone has a rough patch after hitting that wall. Eventually they admit that what they've been doing is no longer working, and they become better engineers because of it. But it's tough when you're in the middle of it, and for a while your work definitely suffers.
Much easier to plausibly deny it was you in IRC, with Snapchat etc, it's much harder to deny that you sent the photograph of yourself from your mobile device.
HR Technology Landscape Infographic (2015)
I've actually given dvorak a fair shot - used it exclusively for a complete year, bought a blind keyboard to speed up learning, practiced daily with dedicated tools for the first month or so. I also took the opportunity to learn proper typing style, rather than a sort of 9 fingered hunt and peck system I had fallen into.

The result is absolute, abject failure. More pain in the wrist and upper arm and noticeable reduction of work efficiency. I'm now back to qwerty and hands flying over the keyboard.

I've however come to the conclusion that it's not specific to dvorak, but rather an inherent flaw of the "proper" way of typing, at least when it applies to programming, at least when it comes to the way I do it: I'm using the arrow keys rather a lot, especially since I don't ever use a mouse to navigate in text.

The arrow keys are far enough of the "main" part of the keyboard that I can't reach them without moving my right hand away from the proper, F-J position. Getting it back to the right position afterwards often involves a bit of fumbling, to the point where I sometime shift it one entire column to the right and need to delete the 5 or 6 characters I typed before my brain caught up with what was happening. This is both frustrating and, over the course of a long day, exhausting.

I know that there are solutions for this: I could use emacs-like shortcuts to navigate (ctrl-n for ->, say), I could use fancy keyboards such as the typematrix which map the arrow keys to cleverly choosen normal keys with a FN modifier... but at this point, I just want to be able to type comfortably again, not learn yet another alien (to me) method of typing in the hopes that in a year or two, I'll be back to where I was one year ago.

You mean they conduct from the entry-point to ground, similar to a lightning strike or electrical burn? Or is this more like a radiation burn?

Actually, now that I think about it, it'd actually be most similar to how a microwave heats meat, wouldn't it? Microwaves being within the RF part of the EM spectrum and all. (Though not quite the same, given the lack of dipole interaction with water molecules outside of the particular part of the spectrum microwaves sit on.)

> this nonsense is creating an asinine, infantilized generation: easily manipulated, desperate for social acceptance, incapable of independent thought, and entirely beholden to the whims of mainstream society.

As far as I can tell, most people in any time period have been like this.

Desperate for social acceptance: There's that "keeping up with the Joneses" thing. Nothing new.

Incapable of independent thought: If most people in the past had been capable, mass movements like Christianity, Islam, Nazism, Communism etc. would never have caught on like they did.

Easily manipulated: Didn't aristocrats etc. manipulate peasants/serfs back in the Middle Ages?

Can you just give me some closure on our thread please by admitting you're wrong? Thanks.
Good point. Disturbing things happen in real world, so it's sometimes necessary to write such things as well to reveal the dark corners of life and human mind. The examples of this articles are perfect. Porn and smut, on the other hand, serves no such purpose and is simply meant to satisfy reader's (sick) fantasies. I still find it strange though, why so many people read porn (aka Fifty Shades of Gray) instead of watching it on Internet which is much faster way to achieve the same effect.

I'm in the UK, and pay £33/m ($50) for unlimited 4G data, calls and texts, of which 12GB can be used for tethering. It includes roaming to 14 other countries at no extra cost. This is on a 1 month, SIM-only contract on Three. I think this is good value.
Which is all fine if you are coding for scenarios where every ms counts like you say.

The problem I see is when doing applications where doing the work in 100ms or 1s doesn't matter at all.

Yet one will be discussing about bounds checking impact, if i++ or i = i + 1 generate the same code and many other micro-optimizations.

"Toxic" is a particular bugbear of mine. I often see references to toxic individuals, or toxic cultures, which seem to use the word as a way of avoiding having to explain what is disagreeable about these individuals or cultures. GP is arguing that toxic individuals make toxic cultures, which is almost tautological and doesn't really explain very much about why this is a bad thing. If the Linux kernel is "toxic" then it would appear that toxicity is no barrier to success in terms of adoption, or benefit to humanity in terms of the quantity of free software distributed to the world. This doesn't appear to make sense, possibly because "toxic" just isn't a great metaphor for whatever GP wants to describe.
For example, Chrome keeps Google analytics connections open for 4 minutes since the last request, even cross sites. This is a cookie less, IP less of uniquely identifying a user.

Man, the age difference is what, 30-ish years? Of course you won't get it, and they won't 'get' your world. If you can comfortably relate to someone 30 years younger or older than you, something has gone wrong in your development.

Don't worry about it. You don't need to get it. You will hate her music, you will find her friends stupid children, she will think you're boring and no longer with it, and when she's grown up, you will annoy her with unwanted advice on how best to get around in the world of 20 years ago.

It didn't seem very toxic to me, ESR seemed very respectful of Linus. Here are some things he said about him:

> You are a brilliant implementor, more able than me

> the best one in the Unix tradition since Ken Thompson himself

> genius that you are

> You're our chosen benevolent dictator and maybe the second coming of Ken

> we respect you and like you

If someone said things like that about me, I would be very, very happy.

The bit of game theory they actively present is Seinfeld's "Don't Break the Chain" technique. Snapchat marks and elevates contacts you individually snap at at least once a day, moving those contacts into more-and-more personally named categories ("close friend", "best friends", etc).

Great blog post! Can't you use Angular or React with RoR when rendering in the backend? I am pretty sure you can.
It does make sense in that context, but even then it seems like a dangerous choice to make depending on your development culture, especially if it only pays the minimums on technical debt. Javascript seems like the payday loan of technical debt.

I think the fear and distrust towards it stems from the perception that it is on its way to become the lingua franca of development, and the expense of other much more suitable programming languages. That seems like a terrible idea.
I really dislike the sensitivity to negative feedback that has become more common over the past ten years. It used to be possible to communicate that someone's behavior is harmful without being accused of literally shitting on them.

ESR's email conveys strong negative feedback—as Linus needed—and in the most deeply respectful and complimentary way I've ever seen in an "email rant". Especially from ESR lol. It's very clear that he means it from a heartfelt place and intends it to be productive.

If you read that email and feel snark from it, that's projection on your part, and it speaks to an uncomfortability with criticism in your world view. You might find life happier if you see that people give negative feedback not to shit on you or snark, but because they care and want to see you succeed.

Yes, you can just use Rails as an API and create a frontend SPA. But in my opinion, it's faster to write in the 'old way' for a MVP instead of creating 2 different applications (one frontend, one backend). For the future, I'm actually thinking about rewriting the frontend using SPA technologies.
