Nothing from the Qt Company itself, but there are some community initiatives around what you're mentioning. This recent mailing list thread mentions a few of them, especially quickflux by community contributor Ben Lau. However, nothing like what you're asking for, QML is clearly not moving in this direction.

- http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2016-March...

- https://github.com/benlau/quickflux/

Now, regarding what's actually being done by Qt Company on the UI side, there are the new qtquick controls (currently namespaced to 'labs' as it's still a work in progress), see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqjabvHSiZk and http://blog.qt.io/blog/2015/11/23/qt-quick-controls-re-engin...
The initial draft of the Minnesota State House's ban on Real ID compliance [0] specifically objected to a few aspects of the law:

- "the security and well-being of the people of Minnesota," which I believe references long-standing American objections to national identification schemes. Some context in [1].

- "to avoid unneeded expense to the people," referencing the fact that the federal government offered no funding to offset the cost of implementing Real ID.

- "to preserve the principles of federalism embodied in the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution," which speaks to concerns that the federal government was usurping rights reserved for the states, and thus challenging the fundamental, federated structure of the nation.

The final text of the bill [3] omits those specific complaints, but I found they shed light on the political context around the bill. Ultimately, it was passed 133-0 in the Minnesota House, and 64-1 in the Minnesota Senate.

>We have a jar with 9000 blue marbles and 1000 white marbles. We reach in, blindly, 87 times. What is the expectation that we have drawn 87 blue marbles?

>We expect this one time in ten thousand. When we observe this in real life, we ordinarily suspect that the procedure is flawed in some way, rather than pure luck.

Doesn't that presume equal distribution?

What if all the white marbles are at the bottom of the jar? Or stacked on one side?

Just like me wondering about how many woman directed films in the 1950s, I think that there may be painful numbers of skews and presumptions that'd affect the final result.

(although - mea culpa - yeah I was very lazy with that original comment)

Funny how people call college dorm living "the best time of your life" but post-college is "grim"
The whole "earned media coverage" thing is so mind boggling I don't even know what to say. The media covers candidates people are interested in, and somehow that's equivalent to paid advertising? Maybe, just maybe, peoples' opinions drive what the media covers (like every other market in existence), instead of the other way around?

Beyond that, the media coverage of Clinton and Trump are overwhelmingly negative. All I see on TV is "how to stop Trump" and "is Hillary a lying liar who lies?"

This is a more recent one: http://games.greggman.com/game/dynamic-typing-static-typing/

There's actually very little real research that has been done that proves or disproves whether static or dynamic typing is better. Anecdotally, I've spent most of my career using statically typed languages. One day I looked up and saw that I had spent most of the day trying to satisfy a compiler rather than having a compiler satisfy me. I've never really looked back. I program almost entirely in dynamic languages these days. Otherwise, I use Java, Swift and Go only when I'm forced to.
Agreed. It would be nice to see Toronto build more of it's identity around this inclusiveness and openness. Surely the fact that Toronto is now the most diverse city in the world is worth trumpeting a little bit.

Ah, that makes more sense, thanks. My question was because, if this were a list of films, the works themselves are pretty removed in someone's mind from their creators, so I doubt that there would be as strong a bias there. If it's actually a list of filmmakers, then the reaction makes sense, thank you for clarifying.
What an odd argument. If you were writing a DLL for Windows would you expect the binary executable that's using it to be written in the same language?

Do you have an example of how writing something without types is supposed to help you capture edge cases? What are the idiosyncrasies of Javascript that can easily be caught in Javascript but NOT in Typescript?

WebAssembly adds massive layers of complexity that Typescript doesn't. You argue going from Typescript to Javascript is bad because, but Typescript to WebAssembly is good. One of this is vastly more complex and complicated, and it isn't TS to JS.
How is this even news anymore?

It is utterly and completely unsurprising that all the government agencies involved in law enforcement on all levels will fight a never-ending fight against anything that impedes their ability to do what they think their job is.

They don't care about privacy or any of that, and see restrictions to getting full access to all data as we see bugs in our systems that keep them from running correctly.
Nearly the whole conversation here is about how terrible it was to update the list to include some women.

Imagine if instead of "women" it was something else. Maybe, "Why didn't you include any Soviet filmmakers?" Or, "What about Alfred Hitchcock?" Or maybe, "You should include some films from the silent era." And imagine Spike Lee took those suggestions and said, you know what, you're right, I should include some films from the silent era, there's some great stuff in there.

Would you be just as upset about Spike Lee bending to his critics instead of sticking to his guns in that case? Or would you see that maybe there is some merit in this sort of back-and-forth? Would you accept a suggestion for "silent films" but rail against a suggestion for "films by female directors"? If so, why is that, exactly? Does the merest suggestion of political correctness shut off your thinking?

How is it that Avast is still a "startup" when it was founded in 1988?

I mean.. they were founded even before the dot com bubble!

Edit: I know there's always a problem when trying to define what is and isn't a startup...but by all metrics I could think, Avast isn't one of them. I mean, otherwise we would also need to include the likes of Microsoft, Oracle, Google, Amazon as other unicorn startups, no?

>He clearly responded to criticism and overrode his original judgement to satisfy them.

Why is it clear that he "overrode" his original judgement by adding films, rather than simply being reminded of some he hadn't considered?
Yes, but if you pay the up-front cost of learning the interface (which, far from being arcane, is actually designed the way it is because it's ergonomic), then you can focus even more on creating than the person using the IDE. While they are stuck debugging some autocomplete error in Eclipse, you've already finished your code project, wrote a letter to your mom, dabbled in an interactive R sessions to teach yourself R, and played Tetris, all without touching the mouse.

IDEs exist for the same reason 7/11 exists. Convenience. You pay a higher price (lost productivity) to experience certain comforts (clicking a button instead of issuing a keystroke command).

My experience has universally been that IDEs only get in the way of focusing on creating. They might be necessary when you are literally just beginning with software and you need a lot of scaffolding to help you -- and I don't think anyone would begrudge university students using IDEs.

But not using a power editor once you are an experienced programmer is hard to understand. I mean, it's so important that it was even included as a whole chapter in The Pragmatic Programmer.

Paying the up-front costs of proficient editor usage is like paying the up-front costs of wearing braces so you can have straight teeth or wearing correcting shoes so you can walk properly. Of course it's more convenient in an absolute sense to simply not wear braces or corrective shoes. But that's not the point. The point is that the value you get from the outcome (e.g. straight teeth, proper walking, or dramatically increased productivity when developing) is far greater than the cost.

In other words, I think you're using a hyperbolic discount function. You are placing such a high value on absolutely immediate "focus on creating" that you incorrectly discount how much more focus on creating you would be able to do with the power of a real editor framework.
The churn is simple to explain: HTML/CSS/JS was never intended for building applications. We've been trying to turn a document delivery platform into an app platform. As a result, we need all this "tooling" to fit square pegs into round holes.
Then the problem is putting so much meaning to data. Why should my ID (or SSN) have so much value? Why should my medical records have so much value? Medical records have value mainly because it can lead to discrimination, so the solution to that is remove the value of discrimination (job, medical care costs, etc.) based on medical conditions.
There has been a significant leak of NSA data - that was Snowden. There have been significant leaks of the personal data of most (all?) applicants and holders of security clearances from OPM servers. So government is incapable of setting up systems to secure themselves. If backdoor access is required, it destroys the incentive for private industry to develop improved technology for privacy (is the argument that our technology is better going to sell when a back door is always available for access?). If better private technology were available then the government breaches would have been less likely. If better private technology were available then more commercial breaches would be stopped.

We should be careful when the FBI is advocating a capability to help investigate events which occur vanishingly rarely (and for which they have many other tools and avenues) vs the integrity of infrastructure which affects a wide swath of public security. When one looks at the entire balance, requiring a backdoor has a high chance that it would lock us into much less secure state of affairs than if everyone is free to pursue and apply the best privacy/encryption measures possible.

> Another example is when a woman is clearly being a misogynist, but thinks that's impossible because she's a woman too.

Do you mean misandrist, perhaps?

Misogyny is literally about hating women. A woman can be a misogynist, but only by hating women. A woman (or a man) that hates men is a misandrist.

Somebody who hates people regardless of gender is a misanthrope.

> The fact that 'mansplaining' is in the iphone dictionary is especially odious. Its a straight up slur. Being a tone-deaf know-it-all knows no gender.

Of course mansplaining is a slure. Misogynist is a slur as well. That is the point of that sort of word.

I think part of this is the built in functions/frameworks for Javascript are so small.

Coding in Ruby, C# or whatever is about learning the standard library as much as the syntax.

So much of the churn is caused by the constant rewriting of basic functionality (e.g. date handling), if we had a bigger and standardised standard library, we wouldn't need half of the packages
That's true, although it tends to hide the data in some '/users/documents/appdata/local/roaming/cache' craziness rather than true i/o. I still can't load a preferences file off my ~/crazy_named_personal_folder, update it, and then save to the same location, at least as far as I know (I've only played around with local storage briefly).

And that's a lot easier to lose and a lot less portable than all the stuff I care about in a single folder that I sync with an external hard drive, a usb drive, and dropbox, automatically.

But it's still better than nothing, and I'm glad it's an option now.

> I can update something that hasn't been touched in 2 years and it works exactly as expected.

This is a factor taken for granted far, far too often.
I probably need to go get some numbers, but when one person's name is repeated over and over and over and their statements are repeated over and over, even if that has a negative connotation, it clearly puts that person in the spotlight.

If Trump had the same advertising as he could afford I dont think he would have been in the same position he is in now.

Panoramic looks pretty awesome. Especially that they're actually doing testing and research on making something that is optimized.
The snow really isn't a factor at all anymore. If you live right (near the subway & in a neighbourhood where you can get everything you may need in a pinch locally) you don't even notice it. I can probably count on one hand the number of days that I've been impacted by snow in the past few years.

In terms of NIMBYism, I don't think there's much more here than in similar cities. To my eye it's more about people being indifferent to the effects of gentrification on marginal populations, and a growing danger of homogeneity in many 'hoods.
Comey's argument makes sense at first. Why not have a trusted escrow provider keep keys safe, and also respond to court orders when necessary. It feels almost like a checks and balances kind of argument, the kind that Americans find persuasive with our three-branch government.

The problem is that we now know that the government has the goal of unlawful surveillance without oversight from courts, the legislature, or the public. There is essentially an ongoing "by any means necessary" attack on civil liberties.

Why should we think that the government is not planning to infiltrate the escrow services and preemptively capture all keys?

There has been a profound breach of trust (revealed by Snowden) and we must insist upon the rule of law and basic democratic transparency before we consent to any further risks.

I try not to be cynical but I am thinking that the trend we are on is leading to strong crypto being largely criminalized. I am hoping that our decentralized systems adapt to this threat and offer solutions that cannot be shut down (like Bitcoin and Ethereum).

Incidentally, if Apple seems likely to lose the battle over a back door, it ought to offer an Ethereum smart contract that will unlock one phone every day, require a key provided by each member of congress (with 100% consent required to unlock a device), and publish all unlock key requests on the Ethereum blockchain after a 30 day delay in case an investigation is in progress.

This protects against mass surveillance, but offers a very small back door with full transparency and no potential for large scale use (or abuse).
The FBI already has access to pretty much any locked door they want if they get a warrant. Their problem is that warrants don't work against encryption.
I've been down this path before. I used coffee script on a few projects. Every time I have to go down that path I end up having to write more complex code just to do basic things. This blows up the project timeline when I could've done the same things in basic javascript in a few minutes.

I read lets discard the benefits of writing javascript as javascript in favor of something else because of a few people refuse to learn javascript. If you don't want to learn the language of the web then maybe just maybe it's not for you.

I think people coming to javascript from statically typed languages need to stop trying to fight javascript or trying to force paradigms on javascript that don't need to exist/never meant to happen and instead embrace javascript as it is and with an open mind.
> unless, that is, PSPACE=P

Which of course remains an open question.

> even completely general verification of freakin' finite state machines is out of our reach in large-enough programs. It's doubtful you can find a useful computational model that's simpler.

Eh, maybe. I find it very hard to reason about finite state machines in programs as a human, so it doesn't surprise me that proving correctness properties about them would be hard. I'm not at all convinced that a general-purpose programming language necessarily includes support for fully general finite state machines.

> Also, notice that any program could trivially be made total without changing its semantics. Give me a program you want verified, I'll add a decreasing counter starting with 10100 to all its loops/recursions, and now your program is total and you'll never know the difference. Does that make it any easier to verify?

Yes - it eliminates the class of errors where one has "implemented" something by an infinite loop. It helps for concrete programs in the same way that it helps for theorems, no?
Imperative jQuery isn't that bad at all. I agree with you. Once I actually sat down and really learned Javascript 4 or 5 years ago my jQuery got a lot better. I don't think developers understand how to write maintainable jQuery. I see a lot of code where people unbind events before they bind and not using the .on methods.

It will still crumble in super complex interfaces though. Which in my experience don't pop up that often, and when they do it's only on one or two pages.
I could absolutely believe someone would pay $10,000 for a genuine piece of North Korean propaganda and not some bit of tourist tat. But I also don't believe that someone did.

This is a sad story. Poor guy must be terrified.
But that is so revealing of the mindset.

* We can have strong encryption just for the good guys
* We can have master keys that only approved staff will use
* We can block all the bad things on the internet and it'll be like they don't exist
* If we have a back door into an encrypted device, only the good guys will use it

It's like no politician ever read about crime. Staff can't be blackmailed or bribed. No one working for the govt ever used resources for their own ends. No govt agency ever tried to blackmail an inconvenient public figure. Because a terrorist once made a terrible attempt at a bomb in his trainers, quick, we'd better make millions of people remove their shoes at airports. Clearly no terrorist has the wit to try a different approach.

The list is so damn long, yet people who really should know better get it wrong with depressing regularity. Are most politicians really that stupid? What are their advisers advising FFS?
Well that was an oddly personal response.
TV, yes. Monitor, no, unless you're willing to stick to extremely large font sizes.

Read the last sentence in my post:
It is understood that being old is in many ways a handicap, and by discriminating positively, we seek to lessen that handicap.

You wrote:

but it's still ageism - discrimination based solely on the age of the subjects.

I disagree with this definition of ageism. Ageism is not simply discrimination based on age. If it were, then requiring people to be of a certain age to vote, drive a car etc. would also be ageist. Ageism implies injustice.
Interesting, I never 'considered' that. It's basically a thin typechecker linguistic layer. A variant of gradual typing.

> The fewer things you have to secure, the easier it is to keep them secret.

Except when this approaches towards zero security. The line is so thin, and actual expertise is needed to discern this sweetspot. I've seen entire corporations use apparently bulletproof security (Think Google's data centres), but fail to use DNSSEC or background check their security guards.

Avoid weak links like this, they are bad for business.
