Ok, fine. That's obviously not what we're talking about. You don't recruit talent or raise capital on the idea that you are going to put talent in the sub-basement of a server room because they are a "warm body."
Yes, you can, together with everyone else, cooperatively.
You nailed it. HABTM just never worked, and there was little interest in making it work. Since I handed out commit-access like candy, the majority of contributions were to endlessly refactor. Or do things like letting you treat a CSV file as a database. And HABTM still didn't work.

I didn't know how to put the genie back in the bottle. I didn't have the same problems that prompted me to create DM in the first place anymore (and by that point, I wasn't sure that porting a large Java Pattern to Ruby was even a good idea considering what I'd learned in the process about method dispatch performance in Ruby) and I was burned out on maintenance. So I handed over the keys and the rest is history.

I messed up. :-)

Today I'm happily writing apps with akka-http and think O/R Mappers are a fundamentally flawed idea. It's like trying to build a truck to move a few yards of dirt 100 feet. It'll never pay off. And I think even "users" would probably find that the hours they put into learning and using the tool will never get ahead of the performance, simplicity and linear scaling of effort they'd have had with a simpler solution.

So these days I'm much more likely to write this in Scala:

val limit = 10.0

sql"SELECT name FROM coffees WHERE price < $limit".as[String]

Than anything else. You will never find an O/RM that's faster, simpler or easier to write and maintain than that.

Plus Contextual Validations in the O/RM is just a bad idea. Even if they do appear in the PoEAA. First-class-Form objects and deserialization/validation at the app boundaries may not be a new idea, but it's the right one. (IMO)
Excellent. This definitely looks to be an improvement over schema, which I use but don't particularly like. Though, I'm fairly new to Clojure (about a month or so), so it may just be my inexperience :)
This part wasn't totally clear, but I think he's actually proposing that we're now launching allergic responses to harmful chemicals present in our Westernized indoor environments (wayyy down the article). If that's what he indeed means, then it goes against the hyperclean theory.
Clipping is distortion, not compression.

"X is good for you" is not typically a universal statement, but a probabilistic one. It doesn't have to be good for every single person in every single circumstance in order to be correct. It merely needs to be better for most people.

For example, not being overweight is good for you. The existence of people who survive famine because they started out obese doesn't disprove that.
How did you develop heavy metal poisoning, and what clued you to it in the first place? Did you develop the sudden allergies after chemical exposure?
That's true, all I'm saying is that you don't have to pop $4k on a monitor speaker, you can buy decent ones for 1/10th of the price.
I'm not familiar with this concept. What are the benefits?

Well there is no shortage of people who like breakfast (or are in charge of selling people breakfast) and hand wave about it being "the most important meal of the day". The truth is probably people have different metabolisms and if you are hungry in the morning you should eat and if you are not you shouldn't.

And that's almost exactly what this post suggests:

> The bottom line is that the evidence for the importance of breakfast is something of a mess. If you’re hungry, eat it. But don’t feel bad if you’d rather skip it, and don’t listen to those who lecture you. Breakfast has no mystical powers.
Well one reason for us dragging our feet is our collective memory of eugenics.
That's not true, starting at any time you can avoid breakfast for the rest of your life.
That is the opposite of the truth. A small amount of compression across all components of the song is absolutely a legitimate part of mastering; nearly all records have this.

It's excessive compression and limiting that's the problem. Most of the time this only sucks dynamics out of the record, but in extreme cases (like the Metallica record, or the Stooges record) an inept mastering engineer can introducing clipping to the track.
I wonder why the Windows Phone team decided to remove USER and GDI. After all, they ran fine on PCs in the 90s, so surely performance wouldn't be a problem on smartphones.
Eating requires a lot of energy. Eating too much in the evening will for example impact negatively your sleep.

Therefore, it is better to have a good breakfast and lunch so you can skip dinner or have very light dinner (lean protein, veggies).

If you skip breakfast, you will have to eat dinner/late dinner. Goodbye good night sleep.
Not really sure what you're talking about.

I've seen at least 6-7 galaxies/nebulae from my 8" Dobsonian and plan to try and find more this year. You just need to get out to an area with low light pollution. FWIW this is from the deck of my house(one of the benefits of living in a rural area) but totally possible to do.

There's also something surreal about seeing the milky way streaking across the sky with the naked eye. Worth it to get away from the city for that alone.

I contend that lunch and dinner are also good for you.

Can you apply the same logic there?
Did we mention the perks like our "unlimited vacation policy"?
I'd be interested to know whether the author eats in the evening. I don't think he mentioned one way or another. I don't eat anything after a light dinner and I usually wake up very hungry. I'm not saying one way is better than the other, but if someone typically sleeps 6 to 8 hours starting at, say, Midnight, and the last meal prior to retiring was at 7 PM, that is 12-13 hours without food.
Speaking as a .uk resident, I'm definitely in favour of 'remain', but extremely tired of the fear based rhetoric from both sides. Honestly, I think the key argument is "better the devil you know than a roll of the dice".
In todays world, Holland is tiny. It cannot make many meaningful decisions on an international level.
How would Holland negotiate with the USA or Russia about trade issues? Well, they couldn't. They'd have to concede to any terms that are dictated from the outside. And like that, every European country on its own would be marginalized over the years.

Together, they at least have a chance. European countries are always debating and don't speak with a single voice yet. But at least there is a chance for survival.

Just look at my country, Holland. Pretty much all important decisions are made by
the EU. An example: we cannot control our own borders. We cannot decide how many
immigrants we want to allow. The EU wants to force quotas on countries and if they
don't accept the quotas, they want to give the countries fines.

Exactly. There are a million refugees in Europe.
And you cannot just send back refugees from war zones as per international law. Somebody has to take them up. Europe has 500 million inhabitants. So there would be 0.2% refugees (i.e. "no problem") if they were properly distributed. Europe is community. Everybody profits from being a member. But every member has to carry some of the weight.
No one knows. I believe it would be a mistake for the UK to leave, as everything down that road is totally open, but I'm actually really curious to see what would happen. Interesting times. "May you live in interesting times" is a curse, mind.
> Instead, I started using a random shuffle to guarantee events aren't repeated before all other events have happened, but it still feels random.

Another option for a similar effect is to keep a counter and compare it to sequences of prime numbers: when the count is a multiple of 23 then X happens, if the count is a multiple of 7 and 11 then Y happens, and so forth.

Balanced with enough thought this will ensure that enough happens without it seeming too regular to the player.
A lot of computational problems are not math but interfacing, I think Haskell excels in the math related world and not in the interfacing one.
This besides the steep learning curve, for myself personally a programming language is also a tool to help getting a mental picture of the problems to be solved. I loose much of the mental picture when using a functional language, but also when using a deep OO language. A functional language is too compact for me and a deep OO language too fragmented.
Must be my deficiency, I cannot speak for others.
yes, I did apply for it.
You flatter me! I humbly suggest a learning algorithm might be a better summarizing service. I've noticed some bots on reddit trying to summarize articles.
We don't have the housing or infrastructure to support the vast number of immigrants. Hundreds of thousands a year. For most people it isn't a racist knee jerk, it's watching our schools and hospitals and housing buckle under the pressure.

> 'I.e free trade deals with China, India, Brazil,'

I wonder: would for example California by itself make better trading deals with those countries then the US as a whole can establish ?

In economic theory bigger is better. Its interesting you mention only countries bigger then the UK instead of small ones. How do you think those countries look at sizes of other countries and regions ?

And again other people may have metabolisms that need to be "kick started" in the morning by breakfast, to keep a stable bloodsugar level during the day.
Shirky: Ontology is Overrated
>The truth is probably people have different metabolisms and if you are hungry in the morning you should eat and if you are not you shouldn't.

Bodies don't always cooperate, if you are going to exercise strenuously in a given day you had better eat some kind of breakfast whether your body feels like it or not.

Breakfast is always going to be the opportunity to eat when you have more of the day ahead of you. That's true by definition, and it's the principle behind the chestnut about it being the most important meal of the day. There isn't much more to it than that.
Why not?

My breakfast was magical - amazing smoked kippers, marmalade and toast, freshly roasted and ground filter coffee, a handful of fresh berries, and that was just the first course!
Would you disagree that countries should have a mechanism under their control under which they have a say as to who gets to settle, work or study in their country?

Are customs and border control not useful any longer? Have we decided they aren't something countries should have control over?

Wanting to be able to control ingress is not the same as blocking all ingress. In this case I believe some in the UK, more than anything, resent having their migration policies promulgated in Brussels.
It's difficult, we have good benefits, minimum wage, NHS, great schools, etc etc. To negotiate on immigration with other EU countries that don't have these things is really hard.
The view of hypersensitive allergic reactions as a hypersensitive home alarm system is very similar to the view in Chinese traditional medicine. In CT medicine, to fundamentally treat constitutions of such hypersensitive conditions, the treatment is more focus on long-term tuning / taming immune system, rather than just blocking the allergic defenses.

So do you roll your own OS? Payment processing system? Web server on your own hardware?

Just because you aren't hand-coding it doesn't make it "magic" or "lazy," it makes it efficient. I'm perfectly happy to use Bootstrap for my web application's styling because they've handled most of the exact same styling problems I will have to, and quite well. I am quite confident I could replicate a lot of that functionality every time I needed to build a web app, but why would I do that when it's already been done and I can focus on other problems?

As an aside I'm curious why you think that "magic" is good for beginners. When you don't have a clue what is going on at all, you really should spend some time learning what happens when you create a user via ActiveRecord, which can easily be done if you study the log files for a bit and read the Rails documentation. Once you are comfortable with what's going on, then you can use the framework to auto-generate code for you.
And the fear mongering commences. It's really rather abusive and manipulative how the establishment is just berating people with a sense of self-determination and dignity not to submit to central domination.

If you think about it, it's really a counter-intuitive, yet rather expected behavior when you understand what is really happening in the world where a global elite is trying to consolidate and centralize ever more control and domination in a global system of government. Humanity needs actual diversity, not this mess that the EU and globalist, jet-setting elite have fooled the mentally ill liberal and Marxist minded people into beieving is diversity. We need differences, we need actual uniqueness; not homogenization, not consolidation and centralization.

Unfortunately, the internet is actually contributing to that trend. Just look at the recent revelations about Facebook controlling the messsage, discussion, and conversation of it's users by controlling what they can see and others share with them. And that's Facebook, with triple digit million users; a number of controlled messaging and propaganda tool that all other dictators and authoritarian regimes would have lost their mind with glee over having access to.

I can't recall off the top of my head who exactly is working on it, but I believe there are some interesting efforts going on at MIT to try to reintroduce decentralization back to the internet. We really need it. Humanity is really heading to a bad place if we don't figure this out.

Recently learned about the 3-30-300 rule of article writing online:

"People will read 3 words to decide if the topic is interesting. If they think it's worth their time, you have thirty words to hook them. If they take the hook, you can probably get them to read 300 words unless they have a focused interest in the topic."

It is, unfortunately, tied to much evil online (the quick-list ad blog ecosystem is basically application of 3-30-300 writ large), but useful for creating general-consumption articles.
The ASI has two great articles on why the UK should leave [0] and what economic/political relationships they should take part in if they do [1]. It's a far better read than the fear-mongering available elsewhere.

I am voting leave but not for the reasons that are spotlighted by the mainstream media. I know that in the short-term there is some risk however I believe it is surmountable. I am much more worried by what will happen to this country if we remain in the EU over the next decade.

I've yet to hear any pro-exit talking point that isn't xenophobic, jingoistic, or at BEST just hopelessly misinformed economically.

The fact that the BNP and UKIP are solidly behind an exit should be a good indication that it's terrible. They are like a bellwether for awful ideas.
I live in the UK. I am an internationalist, believe in free trade, good governance and keen supporter of human rights. I also believe in self-determination and will vote for UK leaving the EU when the time comes. I think the EU is undemocratic, deeply flawed and probably not reformable.

Because of its size, these flaws matter in a crisis. Balkans, Euro, Ukraine, refugees - EU response to each has been ridiculous and dangerous.
What has been driving me crazy, is the sheer, utter guesswork - from both sides. No one can predict the future. Both sides are making predictions and both sides are just guessing.

Meanwhile the real issues are not being discussed or debated in any kind of sensible manner. The UK is spending around 350 GBP million a week (minus some small amount they get back in rebates from the EU) on supporting the EU and have no control on millions of migrants coming into the UK to benefit from its completely free NHS medical system, (even breast implants for cosmetic purposes are allowed in some cases), free schooling, very high minimum wage laws and extremely generous benefits system (including free housing).

These system are now at breaking point and there is no end in sight to the ever increasing load on the system.

Meanwhile, the politicians sling mud at each other...

Hey everyone, founder here.

We've always done work in the social good sphere, primarily working with non-profits directly. Once we reached the point as a company where we started offering benefits, we wanted to do offer something that would stand out and attract people who value impact and giving back.

We actually tried to run a program on our own, but found that even with just 4 employees, it was surprisingly difficult. When we looked at existing software solutions, they were all expensive and aimed at enterprise companies.

From that Patronage was born, and our employees are now able to give up to $100 a month, which we match with a single credit card transaction at month's end.

Happy to answer any questions about Patronage, or about what it's like running a donation matching program.

Also curious to hear from others who've either had experience with these programs at current or past jobs, or considered starting them as a startup/small business.

The world and its economies become less and less predictable the faster technology advances and so, for me, it's political considerations that matter. I don't want political integration with continental Europe. We have separate languages and separate traditions, which are valuable. The English Channel (a 20 mile wide body of sea) gave England the scope to develop more freedoms together with a unique outlook, which are now under threat. The rest of the world loses out too if they disappear.
I was curious about this and took a look at the repositories. If you look at the Java repository and the Scala repository there seem to be a lot of additional folders as compared to the Haskell problem set. I'm sure Haskell would still come out ahead, but it's not clear that you can get an accurate picture from just looking at the amount of code as reported by github.
As you mention French, interestingly, déjeuner literally means to stop fasting (dé-: prefix to stop or cancel, -jeuner : to fast).

edit: breakfast used to be called déjeuner, but it has been replaced by petit-déjeuner (little déjeuner literally) in some regions (including France). Other regions still call the first meal déjeuner.
