The US itself is an infertile landscape for unions. I guess that massive corporate spending on anti-union propaganda is working.

You cannot talk about unions online effectively, Americans come out of the woodwork with super strange anecdotes and pro-business rhetoric. Reminds me of Israel-Palestine in that regard, as soon as the topic comes up things get "strange."

When you grew up in a country where unions are healthy and working both for the employees and for the business, it is hard to see why Americans hate them so much. In particular why poorer Americans hate them, which is an affront to their own self interests.

I'd prefer it to be human readable because it helps in debugability if the code generator is broken (or we misunderstand some subtle semantics and want to look closer), and if I ever want to move away from the language in the future.

Ignoring that, if I don't compile to C or C++, then I'm not sure how easy it will be to use. Are you suggesting Haskell can generate object files, shared objects, and binaries for my systems without compiling to C or C++ first? How would it get the file formats and calling conventions right? Can I specify them somehow to Haskell (doubtful)?

They basically had enriched uranium just hanging around in a drafty warehouse that had a simple padlock on the door, with an underpaid guard to keep an eye on things.

> Altogether, the team discovered 1,032 containers in the warehouse, and each had to be methodically unpacked, examined and repacked for transport into quart-sized cans that were then inserted into 448 shipping containers—55-gallon drums with foam inserts—for the flight. Laborious checking was necessary, each can compared with the Ulba handwritten logs. In the end, the Americans discovered several canisters lying in the warehouse without dog tags. Some of the uranium had to be heated in special ovens to remove water to facilitate the repacking.

Just playing devils advocate:

When you go to the grocery store to pick up bananas and coffee and you go for the cheapest of each you can pretty much guarantee that you're purchasing something produced by mistreating workers, spraying of carcinogens, destroying rain forests, etc.

Even if you're not producing it you are supporting it.
You might go for the the second cheapest banana, and still not know if it's "good" or "bad", but at least the answer goes from "definitely bad" to "possibly okay".

I understand the realities we live with, but blankly accepting the status quo without at least questioning it shouldn't be defended.
Why shouldn't companies be held at least morally/ethically responsible in the same way grocery store customers are, even if none are held legally accountable?

Many metros could benefit from your vision.

You're describing the late 19th century ideal of Garden Cities. Clusters of towns, divided by green belts, and connected by railways and highways.

I'll speak for the US right now, there is so much country side, but it is completely inaccessible for pretty much anybody living in a city. What country-side there is near a metro, it's curated: park here, walk there, take a panoramic picture here, ... I worked in Belgium for a while, which is incredibly densely populated, and the country-side was so much more accessible. Walk out the door of your city house, and you'd be in a rural environment in 10 minutes, and you could go long distances never leaving those small roads. The USA has so much wilderness and country side, yet, it feels so much more remote, just because the cities are a sprawling mess and roads in the country-side only accommodate cars.

If you replace phones and skype with another tool that still insists on interrupting you, you won't save any time at all...

That's why I still like Idling on IRC channels. Seriously, it might sound silly and old fashioned, but there is nothing better to communicate AND work that being on a channel that you mostly ignore. Go there once and hour, or once a day, read the backlog, reply to anything that is still relevant, then get back to work.
If you have a question for someone, assume you'll /eventually/ get replied to, just don't hang there waiting.

So, disable these notifications, and forget about it for a while. The tool is not the problem, it's the users in this instance...

That's a classical problem with Lumpen.
It doesn't help that the mainstream union movement in North America has had a history of some corruption and some politically dubious practices. Teamsters mob connections, AFL-CIO deep integration into the cold war era establishment, etc.

And most people in North America now experience unionized employees mostly in the form of public sector union employees, which is a rather contradictory situation in that as a 'taxpayer' one is also nominally the 'employer' of public sector employees, and the right has done a great job of positioning the public sector against the population as a whole.

"program logic encoded in an exception handler is undeniably less easy to read than explicitly coded error cases"

For which category of exceptions? For interaction with non-deterministic systems where you can make a localized decision - and this is fairly rare - I'd agree with you. For all the other categories, I think you're wrong. If you never used exceptions in the other ways, this will of course colour your thinking.

Buffett's Berkshire invested $1B in Apple
There are a host of problems that could go wrong with projects (and, in my experience, the largest problem being a lack of communication.)

THIS - the lack of communication - is the biggest problem Agile solves. No, you don't have to use Agile to solve the communication problem, but I wager the solution you come up with will look a lot like Agile. And yes, Agile is no panacea and has its own downsides, but solving the communication problem is such a tremendous benefit that the downsides are often marginal.

If you don't have a communication problem or a communication problem isn't the biggest obstacle to your successful delivery then perhaps Agile may offer little benefit or take you on a tangent introducing other problems while not solving your main problem. The worst thing you can do is adopt processes because everyone else is doing it.
I am yet to try this, but I never liked the idea that it automatically edits my nginx config. Seeing that it's in Jesse Backports makes me more confident that it does something sane, though. However the Jesse instructions don't say anything about it. Is it that you get asked questions about Nginx when you say "letsencrypt certonly"? Also strange that it doesn't even seem to require sudo to run.

The short answer is that yes, with tools like Omnisharp and Xamarin Studio, you can write code targeting the CLR on OSX and Linux. Omnisharp basically interacts with Rosyln (the .NET compiler) to provide integration for various editors.

The longer answer is that it really depends on what type of project you're looking to do. Certain technologies from Microsoft will never get ported. WPF and anything that relies on the System.Web assembly are the more well known exceptions. This is because both of those technologies rely specifically on Windows technology to work. WPF, for example relies on a library called PresentationCore which ultimately ends up using DirectX for rendering. System.Web, if I remember correctly, relies on specific IIS technologies to work.

ASP.NET and .NET are moving to more platform independent states, which is what is on GitHub. The ASP.NET ream removed the requirement on System.Web and instead defined the OWIN standard which formalizes the communication between sites that are developed in .NET and servers that can run them. The 2 most widely used implementors of that are IIS 8 (with the HttpPlatform Handler), Suave (F#), and project Katana, although I know I'm missing one.

Why Your Late Twenties Is the Worst Time of Your Life
Unions can vary considerably, and depend strongly on local culture. I'm fairly familiar with the UK, but unions here famously had a very antagonistic relationship with the business, in contrast to unions in, say, Germany.

There was a famous case, where Toyota (or some company like that) set up two identical car factories, one in Northern England and one in Germany. The one in Germany had vastly higher output per worker than the one in England, and a lot of the reason was down to the wildly different attitudes of the workers and the union - the one in England tended to put "tools down" for all kinds of silly bureaucratic reasons.

And certainly in other parts of the country and other industries - Clydeside ship building, say - unions were not blameless in helping along their decline - although the incompetence of management and the business helped there as well.

I'm a C++ programmer and I wish I had checked exceptions. Checked exceptions are really equivalent to an either monad, except that they look better in imperative code, especially if you lack some sort of 'do' notation.

What Java lacks is a) enough compile time abstraction capabilities to inspect and parametrize exception specifications so that application specific exceptions can be forwarded through generic/framework code and b) a way to defer the checking to runtime (possibly via a special annotation) so that there would be no reason to ever write empty catch blocks.

Yeah. A political scientist I know told me that at some points in Catholic history people had almost 1/3rd of the year off. I couldn't find a reference for that, but this site indicates about 1/4 of the year off as leisure time:

"Altogether there were about 80 days of complete rest with over 70 partial holidays, that is, about three months of rest spread over the year."

http://www.traditioninaction.org/History/A_021_Festivals.htm

Not sure about the veracity of that site, but that kind of leisure time is in keeping with much western history that I've read. Looking at a timeline, the Protestant work ethic seems to have played a pretty big role in shifting the work/leisure balance more towards work.

Piece Chain Implementation
Or in boxing, "telegraphing" a punch, where you draw your arm back making it obvious what you're about to do so that you're opponent can prepare to block/dodge/counter/etc.
You can use the --standalone option to get just the certificate files, so you can keep your nginx config files as-is however you configured them and just update the privkey.pem and fullchain.pem files wherever your nginx config points to look for them. And the --standalone option actually requires sudo but I guess that's because it puts the certs in /etc/letsencrypt~.

Caution though, the file paths you get after obtaining the certificates are actually relative symlinks for some reason so if you just copy these symlinks over they will most likely not point to the correct path so copy the original files instead.
Presumably if these six figure office workers weren't producing more value than their salary they would be fired and that would be that.

This guy better seek legal assistance quickly. EU data protection legislation is strict, and data about sexual orientation etc. falls under particularly strict protections. The combination of lack of consent and publishing personally identifiable information in a different context, by a different entity of the one that collected it, has plenty of potential for legal challenges that could get rather expensive for him, and I think his glib comment about how the data is already public won't get him very far in court - EU data protection law takes context and what the subject of the information has given consent to very seriously.

Forgive my pessimism here, but is this the fourth estate really attempting to expose the problems of homelessness for a solution, or is this an attempt by elites in the media to make the problem go away so they don't have to deal with it. The opening lines where the reporter sees the couple having sex in a tent. That just sets a negative tone for the whole thing. From there it just sounds less like "we need to solve this problem" to "we need to do something to get these people out of here.."

In the divide between AOT and JIT, and not being able to have them both, is the deoptimize question.
