Curious as to why not?

I travel on low cost carriers on a regular basis between European destinations. Several years ago I bought a Paperwhite, specifically because I was tired of lugging around heavy, space occupying paperbacks, which I often finished enroute, leaving me nothing to read for part of the flight.

If I didn't already have the Paperwhite, I'd be seriously tempted by the Oasis.

>You could say that Vim is an (implementation of) vi, but vi is not Vim

No, it's a derivative project. However, in lots of distros, when one runs "vi" they are actually running "vim" (in vi standards mode).
Language simplicity? I disagree, Java is only agreable if you're comfortable with (1) being forced to work in an OOP-only environment and (2) using the JVM. And while you can argue for the upsides of both of these (which I believe are few and far between) they certainly add a great deal of clunky complexity, which many programmers are fleeing to Golang to avoid.

I'm not sure you understand what I was referring to. Public-private partnerships are where the government works in concert with private enterprise to do something (such as paying for it, while the enterprise actually does the work).

Public universities are simply public. There's no problem with them and they can in fact be both good and cheap.

> In the UK, I think council housing was a great idea - until they started selling it off (i.e. privatizing it).

Exactly. If the government wants to operate public housing, that's fine. The problem is when the government starts giving private enterprises control of the housing and the opportunity to make profits while government still foots the bill.

Yeah, and on top of that he's relying on employee surveys to fix the company. I mean, has he taken the survey? Has he worked in an organization before?

It's possible they can show you when your employees start being dissatisfied, but a reasonable person can not believe that employee surveys are going to "fix" their culture.
Nobody forces you to use a complex toolchain for Java. You can use javac and ed if you like. But Java is sufficiently simple and sufficiently popular for pretty awesome tooling to be available. Refactoring Java code is a breeze because your IDE understands the code perfectly.

This is why I use hipache for load balancing / routing - it is the only solution I've found where you can change the routing or add new backends in a live system without any downtime. Here is the main problem though: Its load balancing isn't exactly smart, for example it won't keep the same client IP on the same replica, thus creating problems when a client writes something on one replica, then gets switched to another that didn't get the update yet.

I'd love a better solution for this btw. Is noone working on Hipache anymore? Other than this problem I find it very elegant.

> you get the language simplicity

I remember the Go language specification to be about as long as the table of contents for the Java language specification.

On the other hand, Brainfuck is an extremely simple language, too.
Because CLI and keyboard access are two different things.

The fact that one can do all CLI work on a GUI doesn't mean that typing on a virtual keyboard is as convenient as typing on a physical one for typing tasks.

Are people under the impression that mice GUIs mean that one doesn't use the keyboard? Mice GUIs have both shortcuts AND text entry boxes a-plenty. They even have terminals.

It's the CLI that doesn't have access to all these stuff.
I had the understanding that individual genetics control response to dietary fats. I never see individual genetics referred to with these diet instructions and studies - which makes me very vary of them. Am I completely wrong (i.e. did my 23 and me test give unscientific advice)?
You're missing the point in actually a really important way.

Nobody is claiming that C makes it impossible to cleanly do the right thing—obviously the whole world runs on C.

The point is that nothing about the C language, libraries, or toolchain discourage the example given in the blogpost compared to your more correct code. Unless you remember exactly the right details from the manpages, there's nothing about the example in the blogpost that's less natural to write than your more correct code. (And people do forget those details: http://rachelbythebay.com/w/2014/08/19/fork/ )

By contrast, as illustrated in the blogpost, the most natural way to do the same thing in Rust turns out to be the more correct thing. If you wanted the bad behavior to happen, you'd have to go out of your way to pass -1 to kill(). Hence in this example, Rust's design is an improvement.

It's great that C gives you enough rope to hang yourself with, but it's even better if tying yourself to things safely is easy, and to hang yourself you have to really go out of your way.
However in many places people were unsure if they were fit for human consumption! For instance the Paris Faculty of Medicine only declared them edible in 1772 mainly by the efforts of Antoine-Augustin Parmentier.

He did publicity stunts such as potato dinners featuring honorable gusts like Lavoisier and Benjamin Franklin, or (my favorite) surrounding his potato garden with lots of guards... only to instruct them to accept any bribe and be extra sloppy guarding the garden, allowing interested villagers to "steal" the potatoes.
Good case of a person who shouldn't have left college.
The article describes a few problems that I have (the network-manager issue, the frequent bug windows), but I think I have more patience for these issues, since the issues tend to be smaller than the little and constant nuisances I experience with using my Mac at work. However, I did stop using Unity, with the benefit of having a little more memory to work with (I really don't use the desktop itself, except for widgets on the top for time, battery, resource usage, etc.)

The bigger problems I had with 14.04 on my laptop have been solved in 16.04: poor wifi performance and the seemingly random times it would just come out of sleep mode while the lid is closed.

From your description, it is not completely clear what you are ordering on, but typically in an RB tree you (at the very least) want to require some interface/function that specifies ordering and equality.

Of course, in some cases you can do casting on your interface boundaries. But in many other cases this is not possible, e.g. if you want the API to return an ordered set or map.

Go doesn't do inheritance either. It has type embedding, but it's not the same.

In the most recent of Ian Lance Taylor's proposals (Type parameters, 2013 [1]) he summarizes:

> The implementation description is interesting but very complicated. Is any compiler really going to implement all that? It seems likely that any initial implementation would just use macro expansion, and unclear whether it would ever move beyond that. The result would be increased compile times and code bloat.

So I'm pretty sure that the logic is acceptable, but it conflicts with Go's core goals of simplicity and compilation speed.

I think you can do that yourself, although it probably means that you need two credit cards.
I don't want to start a flame war, but parametric polymorphism has been exhaustively studied for decades. Any technical difficulties of bolting it on Go at this stage probably stem from uncertainty about Go's existing semantics rather than the new feature itself. So I hope there are non-technical reasons that have led to the features delay.

Learning by doing
Does jumping into a software project really help with learning? I have tried doing that.

Jumping into everything with the goal of learning something. I end up giving up on it because of various reasons. I am not good enough yet to do that, or I lose interest, or no patience, or sometimes even due to fear of failure/reputation.

For example, I clone a repo with the intention of doing something. I end up doing nothing most of the time because it is too large and too time consuming.

If anybody else has tried this, do you have some pointers on how to approach learning and doing? Or what could be the right perspective on patience when something doesn't work...?
An interesting situation. Obviously, being a backer on Kickstarter means taking risks. At first the risk feels binary: either the product succeeds or not. But obviously, quality and delivery matter. So the risk is not binary. Some delivered products still fail expectations. But hey, it's a Kickstarter.

Here it is different. Product succeeded to market, on the backs of the backers, the business got pre-funded and is running, but the cashflow generated from the final product is not enough to forfill the promise to the backers. The implicit promise to me is: IF I succeed in building the product, THEN I promise to deliver. You pre-fund me, and see what happens. The term shitstorm is pretty adequate. You promise, you succeed and then renegotiate. This is worse than failing. It's like lending money from your mom to start a business and forget to pay back.

The hint for future Kickstarters is: sell out sooner and do better calculations. The profits of future retail should at least cover the costs implicit in the pre-funded promise to backers. This makes electronic kickstarters a lot harder, since it is less easy to deliver low quality than in software. But it's the nature of the business you're aspiring to be in. If you fail, fail hard. Don't try to hang on to your business, while skipping on your promises. You've got a moral obligation to work hard and fail hard.
That's precisely it. We don't want to "bolt on" any feature to Go. The features should interact nicely. Language design is all about tradeoffs like this.

There's a lot of information out there about Go's design process and goals. If you read up on it (and the proposals that are the subject of this thread) you can see why parametric polymorphism isn't something that you can just shove into the language.
nope it was not :) but you can agree that she did "see" it with another view. just my two cents :) no offence there

Java itself is, IMHO, quite straightforward.

But setup a java toolchain, building, deploying, and a lot of other configuration if some heavy framework is involved, is non-trivial. Gradle is like a must for modern Java application, and mastering itself takes some efforts. Go, when coming to toolchain, it is pretty much battery-included, best-practice-builtin, sometimes even a little forced.

Language wise, Java recently has seem a more aggressive adoption of new and modern features, which is quite welcome for me personally, but it is still more LOC comparing to Go.

I think Go is the new Python for light to middle complexity web service, with fewer people. Java is more for mature stuff, for larger scale collaboration.
It's not even clear to me that there's any overhead to the Rust version. Checking error codes that should be checked isn't overhead. Checking them inefficiently would be overhead, but the Rust version looks like it should compile down to something pretty similar to what the equivalent C switch blocks would produce.
The EU absolutely allows for verbal contracts, it's just recommended against (like in the US) since it's so hard to prove.
Whereas some things are fairly straightforward to grow from their own last-crop seeds, resowing potatoes from some you already have often results in disease.

I grow a lot of different things in my backyard. From one lettuce, coriander, radish, pumpkin or tomato plant, I can collect loads and loads of seeds to regrow. In the case of a lettuce plant, it's thousands of seeds.

Potatoes are trivial to grow from old shrivelled supermarket stock (and sometimes scraps with the eyes intact) but 80+% of crops I've grown this way have been riddled internally with disease.

I often get crap when I mention most of the time execution speed is just not important.

However it is important vastly more important for google than me or you. Simply because google and a lot of other web companies are running on such tight margins.

Consider my company is paying maybe $200/mo for AWS. When we are doing half a million a month in business. Each cpu cycle for us represents a lot more revenue for us than google is making. The flip side is programmer time matters a lot more to you and me than to google.

Since you brought up that detail I just wanted to remark that this is an interesting example of truth vs value.

Most people don't know what sort of experiment it was. Now that you did mention it, I'm quite sure I've heard at least one alternative truth about the frog but I don't consciously remember it.

The reason nobody cares is that the value of the story lies elsewhere from what actually happened or might have happened in reality. Nearly nobody was there so who knows (maybe there never even was a frog?) but as you know people use it to illustrate the scenario where something adapts to specific circumstances while failing to recognize the complete change.

Interestingly, the story could actually be anything, like a scene from a well-known cartoon or any story or fairytale encompassing the same principle. Human understanding is as much about stories and words as it's about facts, and even more so for human communication.
Sorry, I might've jumped the gun and read it in way that was unintended. The statement could very well have been '...That or a person's unique insight and persistence.'

I guess the reason I misread is because as I was reading the post I was thinking 'wow, that's awesome ! she did all of that despite being a woman in the 1800s (when typically I presume this behavior would be frowned upon)' and then I read the last bit and thought, is he saying that she did that because she was a woman ?

The O'Reilly cookbooks are sort of like Stack Overflow: There's a problem, and you get a solution to that problem. Along the way, you might be lucky enough to learn something of how regexps work, and then apply that knowledge to future regexps.

The exercises in my book are designed to improve your mental model for regular expressions, and to increase your fluency. The exercises aren't likely to be practical problems that you'll have to solve. These are toy problems -- but each has been selected to tickle a different part of regexps that give people issues.

After you do the exercises in my book, and reading my solutions and explanations, you'll have a broad understanding of how to use regexps, and how to apply them to your own work. Your mental model will be clearer, and you'll be able to solve lots of problems -- not just those presented in a cookbook.
