My definition of art: Art is anything that can be discerned as art.

If it cannot be discerned as art, it isn't art. It's just..random stuff.

This isn't about the perceived quality of art. A children's drawing is art, even though it's likely not a masterpiece at all.

So, it's also perfectly acceptable for Ai Weiwei's artwork to not be art, or art to someone else.

> windbg is the best debugger

How so? I saw this suggested in some places but I found windbg atrociously complicated, even compared to plain GDB. It can debug the windows kernel, but that's about the best I can say about it. x64dbg and IDA's debugger were far nicer to work with for all desktop reverse engineering purposes.

In terms of non-RE debuggers, yeah, VS's is pretty good, but I don't find it that much better than anything else to say it's a must-have. Most source-level debuggers offer about the same feature set in only slightly different ways. It does the job and once you know one you pretty much know them all.
Why did changing the TLS cert break things? Were you pinning it in your client?
This sounds like a multi-page declaration of "I was a hacker before it was cool."

Yes, a lot of people are into technology now who weren't in the 90's. That doesn't make you special just because you were first. Grow up.
I speculate, perhaps groundlessly, that they could be racing to add the other traditional elements of Pokemon, e.g. battles and trading. So long as they begin to deliver those before people forget about the game, they can get a second, probably much longer lasting, wind.

I certainly couldn't see myself being a devotee even if they added those features, but kids the world over devoted countless hours to the gameboy games, and that's pretty much what they were.

P.S. When "playing" equates to "biking around town, walking around town, etc", I'm A-OK with play volume being an important element to "success"!
Georgia Tech only enrolls ~7.5% black students so it wouldn't help their quotas. Also companies aren't opening offices in Asia to chase after a demographic, they do it to cut costs.
It's still problematic, even if the work was distasteful or even illegal. There was no process involved, no chance for appeal, no explanation of the charges that precipitated it. If it truly is illegal materials that violate laws, then deleting it is deleting evidence and helping cover up crimes. If it was art that borders on distasteful to some then google is deciding taste and public values with private algorithms.

I'm not sure what the right thing is here. To require any publishing platform to retain works they decide violates their TOS seems like a big burden. But we live in a world where publishing seemingly requires the cooperation the private sector. If not google, at very least a hosting company of some kind. If we want the allow social norms to change we can't stifle everything that falls outside of the norm.
BEM basically gets rid of combination of classes because some people feel as though it is very difficult to locate every location of a class in css. So if you typically only define styles for any element once(or once for every font, color etc section) you are less likely to have unexpected changes. A lot of times it happens in reverse.

<section class="frogs">
<h1 class="headline frogs__headline">Frogs</h1>
</section>

or

<section class="frogs">
<h1 class="headline">Frogs</h1>
</section>

So in the second one some sadness happening possibilities of a developer being a jerk:

1. Removes the "frogs" class from section. Now the baseline headline applies to the h1

2. Buries this joy somewhere

.frogs h1 { sadness: here; }

3. Wraps the h1 in a div or something clever for some effect or whatever

<section class="frogs">
<div class="sweet-slider-plugin">
<h1 class="headline">Frogs</h1>
...
</div>
</section>

and someone wrote the rule as

.frogs > .headline

because further down in the section someone else used the .headline class nested in a "frog of the day" sub section.

I'm definitely not trying to say BEM is what you have to use. Or if it is good or bad. Just trying to explain that there is an actual point to it.

> Something the author hints at is that the big discrepancy is geographic in nature, not racial.

It's not an either/or proposition; it's both/and. According to the article, Google, Facebook, and Twitter are all ~2% black. The population of Silicon valley is just shy of 8% black. The national number is about 18%. Silicon valley is an unusally white area, and the staff demographics are skewed even relative to that baseline.

For what it's worth, I am originally from a small industrial town in rural Arkansas, and I am white. Getting hired in a tech firm was actually quite easy for me, given that I was willing to move away from where I grew up to an urban area with a thriving tech sector. I'd like to think that would still have been true even if I were black, but...

I had a Swiss professor on my committee who would halt any discussion of evolutionary process if someone hinted at 'purpose' or 'intention'. He would pop up and shout in a thick Swiss accent "noO!dis iz da fallacy uv teleology!"[1] He would never be assuaged with attempts to point out that such references are merely short-hands for longer, more precise, statements. But he consistently held the best post-presentation parties.

I've got 500 hours and fly in the Bay all the time. It stopped being "work" a long time ago, and now it doesn't concern me at all to fly wherever I want to go. I wouldn't think twice about flipping on the mic and telling ATC what I want or need.

I was unhappy with the curriculum mainly because I think most of the CS learning I did was very self-motivated.

It's unopinionated in the sense that it's opt-in only. But they already have opt-in as the first selling point. Any css framework that gives you component classes (how things look) is opinionated by definition.
As with anything, I think material design can be done right or wrong. I don't like completely flat designs, and I don't like actionable objects that aren't immediately apparent as actionable. I do, however, like the overall look, as long as the functionality is done right.

One of my peeves is that it's sometimes hard to create business dashboards with high information density, since a lot of the material frameworks love their padding out of the box.
The biggest problem there is that you're injecting the politics of emacs into your debugging then. GUD's hooks into LLDB are still a third party package because certain parties have deemed llvm-based utilities politically inconvenient.

I think there is a big difference between a) what ethical hackers post on publicly available parts of servers provided by their host academic institutions and b) what they say over a beer and why they do what they do.

If they do it in CSS, I bet you can remove the animations by setting the animationduration property to 0 seconds.

Or if you want to aggravate users, override it so that each animation takes 10seconds. :)

I once tried to learn Angular, but failed miserably. The documentation is so awful and the framework is so bloated.

So I gave a chance to React and I liked it first, easier to learn, object-oriented, etc.

But now I found [VueJS](https://vuejs.org/), which is even simpler. You don't need to deal with the painful tooling of React (webpack and a huge number of files in a node_modules folder), it works out-of-the-box. Include the script tag and start coding, this is how things should work! The simpler, the better.

Well that might be a bit too 'new' for today's smartphones and rapid app development cycles. However, there is a software known as PTAM that has been around for a while now[0]. It isn't as fancy as the SLAM demo you showed, PTAM can't build continuous 3d maps, but it does the kind of AR stuff we have been promised[1]. It ran in real time on iphones all the way back in 2009!

However, in the real world it might not be reliable enough or might be too costly in terms of battery life to justify putting it in a phone app that was developed as quickly as possible

That SLAM thing is interesting though, especially if you can integrate it into an AR game. Because it can make 3D maps of the environment, you might be able to use players of said AR game to go out and scan the world. One can incentivize scanning unscanned areas by placing 'rare pokemon' in them or giving in game items for areas scanned. If one has enough people playing, one could build google streetview style maps that are updated everyday.

Except we can do much better than streetview because we have the 3d model of stuff. A big continuously updated 3d map like this is valuable. We can use it for mundane stuff like 'does the local bar have any specials today', but we can also use it for stuff like navigating robots. If one has a big map of where all the trees and buildings are, it makes it much easier to do drone delivery.

This one's pretty obvious if you've ever written a malloc. Compare VirtualAlloc² with the mess of mmap/madvise/mprotect. I'm not even sure you can get the nice explicit reserve/commit of Windows with pure POSIX APIs.

Then, can you explain why the C library provided by Microsoft in their compilers has such slow 'realloc()' implementation? (e.g. expanding a 10MB allocation to 20MB using realloc())
If you step passed the obvious X is bad mentality, the article makes a great point about React, and that it is only one thing: the React Component. This component is model (state), controller (lifecycle and callback methods), and view (render). This makes proper separation of concerns very hard. React says it's only view, but actual implementations are a full app. There are solutions like Providers and High Order Components, but these are just built on top of the React Component.
As someone with gaps in my resume for various reasons, I have found a range of responses by potential employers.

I have worked in two different career fields. When I made that switch, getting the professional certifications took me about 3 months, during which time I was not working. Almost nobody asks about the gap, though almost everyone asks about the career switch.

I have a several year period in which I was working only contract employment. There are gaps of up to 5 months between contracts. Most employers ask something about that time, and most are satisfied with the simple explanation that finding a new contract took that much time.

Some employers care more than others. IBM required me to write a letter of explanation for every gap of 3 months or more. Some employers don't even ask.

The author is obviously mislead :-) The reason why React is great is that it allows you to specify a big part of your DOM like a functional programmer would, making much of your code cleaner and more understandable. Especially if you don't program it in Javascript, but for example in Scala.

Now an ecosystem of reusable web components? Not even the link he gives for that is relevant anymore.

Solution to related but different problem: I have too many projects with several notebooks that make window management a pain (two dozen browser tabs in a browser I would like to use for other things). My solution in OS X is to use the ancient-but-venerable Fluid app as a wrapper for each project, so I can treat it like a native Mac application. One can open as many new window in Fluid as you like, so one can have cluster info, another netdata, another terminal, and any number of notebooks.

> I don't know that ageism in technology necessarily means that older students are less likely to be hired out of university.

If a company is less likely to hire a 35 year old or 40 year old professions that got out of college at the expected time with work experience, then a 35 year old graduate is going to have a much harder time. I cannot think of a situation where that wouldn't be true.

I would bet it would even be worse because it deviates from the expected path (high school -> college [w/optional graduate work] -> work) at that time period in a person's life and that would be foreign and weird to many teams.

As to the "right" school, that's quite a bit of the problem.
TL;DR: Yep, citing ESR does not help GP's case!

Thank you. I had wrote something about that in a comment I was working on minute ago, but it didn't make the final cut. I'll attempt to reproduce it:

ESR is so broken that he thinks being peerless is a good thing. The only time in my life when any of his writing made any sense to me was when I was myself so desperately alone that I didn't even realize what I was missing. I have considered reaching out to him, offering him a lifeline... But after reading his blog, I am sorry to predict that he would interpret any interaction with another human that results in his experience of an actual feeling to be an assault on his person, and that he is likely to respond in kind.
I'm not going to comment on the topic of the content involved. But seems to me that using your own doamain name (not hosting the blog on blogspot) and/or a backup would have solved this issue.

Even if you're using blogspot, that's no reason not to have a backup.
I too have never heard of Takeout. It seems like it's been in around since 2011 with a much smaller set of supported services [1]. One of the top results when you search for 'Google Takeout' is one from 2011 titled 'The Silent Release of Google Takeout' [2].

It looks like it used to be closely associated with the Google Plus branding more so than Account Management, so that may explain why it's not as widely known.

Yes, most web apps would be better off using something simpler (like, say, my baby, http://intercoolerjs.org). Yes, facebook has an ambiguous relationship with the web (OTOH, google doesn't and yet they turned out Angular, so...) Yes facebook fanboys and trend followers are piling in and over-applying it.

But there are still jobs for which React (or similar) is the right tool. False dillemas make for good clickbait headlines, but they are no way to think about life.
