Kids do judge, that's the point of bullying. They don't care about whether they might act inappropriately in a adult sense, but they still care about what others think of them.

The real difference, I'd say, is that kids are very easily bored. They get majorly annoyed if they don't have anything to do for more than three minutes, so they leave no time for awkwardness: they'll either pester everyone around them for attention until they either get a playmate or just get tired and start playing alone.

Plus, pretty much all kids know how to play pretend, so it doesn't take much for them to be playmates. Or at least it didn't take much in the far distant past of 2001.
>Nobody in their right mind wants to legalize heroin.

What cave do you live in where heroin and other opiate usage isn't already a massive issue, even though it's illegal?

Are you going to start mainlining heroin just because it's legal? I'm not. The point of legalization is to stop throwing addicts in jail.

As an US citizen, I no longer salute that piece of cloth or sing the national anthem at sports games. I don't even bother standing for it and encourage others to do the same to show our distaste for how our own government treats us.

I was disgusted in the 2000's when being against the Iraq war was not only being flaunted unpatriotic but not supporting our troops. That's BS. I support our troops and would rather not have seen them deployed to conduct Cheney's bidding.

I will sign the petition and if some asshole gives me trouble at the border for it, so what? I'm a US citizen and entitled to re-enter my country. F them.

I think the proper solution would be to have a 'default team' which is filled in for each target that hasn't an explicit team set. That way, Xcode project files coming with open source projects could keep the team setting empty and would still compile and deploy out of the box.

The "moral hazard" argument holds very little water with me in this era. We've bailed out big banks despite the moral hazard, because it was necessary or else the consequences would have been ever worse. I think a similar argument is applicable to student loan debt, except that student debtors are a much more sympathetic and deserving beneficiary than big banks ever were.

The simple truth is that the world isn't a fair place and doing the right thing is not the same thing as doing the fair thing. Fair is "everybody gets treated equally". That just isn't how things work in the real world. Right is "to the best of our ability, we try to help people get what they need." That's something we can really aspire to. Doing the right thing.
Tried that, but it seems the build setting now needs an explicit SWIFT_VERSION configured .. And carthage dependencies don't have that so the build fails.

Basically, I couldn't get my carthage dependencies to compile with Swift 2.3, so I went the Swift3 route, which now, after 10 hours wasted, was such a bad idea!

Appstore was bugging me to update Xcode so I caved in and now I'm stuck with a project that doesn't build and the deadline approaching fast. Such a useless waste of time.
There's no problem with the statistics. It's understood that the worlds in which anybody is 200 years old are extremely few. The probability that you'll experience such a world is either 0 or too close to make a difference. But by an anthropic principle, somebody is experiencing those worlds.
Problem being that ML manifests the unconscious biases of its author -- in the form of its learning set being biased, in the form of not-spotting patterns that are obvious for human heuristics or in the form of training not capturing something the author sees as significant.

I recall a story recently about ML detecting risk for post-op inpatients. Human nurses know not to send people with Asthma home after an operation due to their high risk profile. Because the ML system was always ignoring Asthma patients as they were never queried, it assumed it was safe to send them home.

I would argue that that racially biased policing in ML is just an extension of racially biased data scientists in Ft Meade, or Silicon Valley or Wall St or where ever.
I can eventually see regulations forcing companies to share particular types of data, such as that associated with accidents. Especially more unique accident scenarios. It'd be pretty limited in scope, but sharing that sort of data would have a pretty clear public safety rational even if they're just using it to build up simulations. No doubt there would be a lot of difficulty in just finding a way to make it portable.

I don't have the familiarity with what they're collecting (and how) to make any actual guesses on how you'd go about it.

Beyond that, no company is going to want to share their general data. There's too much time and expense behind its collection, and just sharing it wouldn't be enough; to make sense of it they'd have to share a lot of insights into their proprietary systems as well.
> People want the nice things their parents had, but not on the same timeline

I don't think that's telling the whole tale.

Soon after my parents got married in '74 they bought their first home, brand new. It cost 5 years of my Dad's salary at the time (a new teacher). So with the two of them working, they paid it off in just over 3 years.

Go find me a house for sale now that's less than 10 or 15 years of an individuals salary.

The world is a much different place - so I think people want the nice things their parents had, and they'd be happy if it were even the same timeline, but it's much, much longer.
A pardon would be very unlikely. Since Snowden is being "made example of" to prevent similar whistleblowing and leaking activity.

Even if the government pardons him, the country is full of armed lunatics on meds, he wouldn't be safe.

Does no one here buy cars? I forgive you. A $40k car will likely come with a 5yr loan that's cheaper than student loans. That'd actually be $8k/yr+interest... which is not 40% of your salary. Find something else to judge the guy for.
Yep completely agree. I would hire her on the basis of this alone tbh, given I was working in a field somewhat related to social causes. Apps take hard work first and foremost, and dedication.

Oh hell.. writing this.. I think I'll contact these people at least, help them out in their spare time.
Agree that `await` by itself is useful, and your example shows the correct way to use it for concurrent activity. The problem with top-level await is that any modules depending on a module with a TLA cannot execute until it's done – the effects cascade and magnify throughout your app, rather than being confined to an explicitly async function.

Unpopular opinion with healthy dose of anecdata incoming.

I was bullied mercilessly from 3rd grade through 7th grade. Wedgies, keepaway, taunts, set-ups, beatings anywhere from hit and runs to ground and pounds.

At some point in the 7th grade during an ordinary, routine beating, something snapped within me and I turned around and landed on the order of 40 blows to the kid's face.

I was never bullied again.

I would advocate immediate, publicly visible, and decisive violence as a solution to bullies.
The async/await example is much cleaner. I also think it's a great pattern for async code. It allows you to get away from callbacks altogether, and replaces those annoying conventions with "synchronous-like" code, which to me as someone who writes async code daily, is a god-send.

The amount of visual noise in the promise example cannot be understated.

I would agree with and extend your remarks with the positive example of adult ex-military people always have something to talk about in common, why with the newborn I haven't had this little sleep since Basic, hey you ever been stationed at Ft Leonardwood, well I was at Redstone in the 90s and ... etc etc. Another positive example is sports team fans, how about that pass in the 3rd quarter of the Packer game, eh? I don't even do sportsball but I got the terminology correct and I'm sure there was some questionable pass in the 3rd quarter of the most recent Packers game, how could there not be?

I can also extend with some classic negative examples, once you graduate school and live in the real world, I have nothing in common with my neighbors. What can I say to a 65 year old CFO, or a 50 year old warehouse owner/manager? The HVAC contractor across the street? "Wow those air conditioners sure blow a lot of air don't they?" Our kids might have a lot in common at the school as you state, but as parents I have very little in common with my neighbors.
Maybe the golden age* of music subscription services is ending, following in the footsteps of these services for video:

- A startup negotiates contracts with most/all content providers

- said startup becomes a sensation

- Google, Apple & Amazon enter the market, signing similar deals

- Content providers realize the value of their material and negotiations become more complicated

- The services want need differentiation and it can't be price because they all have more or less the same lower bound of licensing costs

- The startup's contracts are up for renewal. They don't have the financial background of Apple/Google/Amazon and loose a few contracts

- There are now 5-10 services and each one has some exclusive content, overlap in the libraries keeps shrinking

- I go back to bit torrent because 10$/mo is already more per year than I paid for music in the first 25 years of my life total.

This project has been going on for decades. If smell is a serious issue with foxes, someone certainly brought that up and increasing the scope in this way is rather obvious. In fact it's not really increasing the scope much at all because if you're going for pets, clearly the smell issue needs to be solved.

The primary goal of showing that this can be done at all, apparently has also been accomplished apparently decades ago. I can't imagine that they're not already in the refinement stage.

To my eyes there is hardly anything uglier than the Tesla Model X, and Tesla's interiors are garbage across the board. You can't _see_ anything in the Tesla except for the gigantic TV. Maybe I'm strange, but I feel that being able to see out of the vehicle at night is still very important in these waning days of the human-driven car.

Unfortunately many EV makers are trying to ape Tesla's look and feel, so the Bolt includes a large but not enormous touchscreen display, and graphical instruments as well. But at least they are using hard knobs and buttons for the climate controls.
Maybe I am the old man in the room, but even though it sounds neat, and the intentions are good, I think the net result is pushing more towards not dealing with the world and now instead of slipping notes folded in your hand with micro-writing to someone, you text them or hook up on an app. The note could get intercepted and abused in the past, and the same for this app, just as Facebook can be used to prey upon people, so can this app be used. Tech is not always the answer, although tech is liberating and awesome in general.

Part of growing up is learning to take chances, and overcome fears, extreme cases not included. Children learn to test boundaries, and explore. Some kids, and their parents are just bad or ignorant, and it will always exist in some manner. The goal post moves to the next unacceptable thing to the point where people will only be able to live in urban areas, and wouldn't last a minute outside of their cell coverage zone, or in nature.

It will never go away even with all of the tech and laws. You can't legislate intelligence, and you cannot tech it to death. I for one think things have gotten better, but the bad is reported more, and gives the impression that it is somehow worse in people's minds.

I look at my childhood, and my children's and they are orders of magnitude in difference to the violence and things that went on in my neighborhood. I do, though see the relative discomforts. Meaning something that would not have personally been hurtful to me then, or at least I would have been able to put aside, and move on, would be more of an issue to my children's peers. We have progressed, and are whittling away at the extremes, but then the relative borders of unacceptable move closer perhaps enough to make the emotional magnitude equivalent.

In a few years with the maturing of AI to fine-tune the processes we will all think alike,behave alike, conform alike, to the wishes of our overlords who know who we are, where we are, what we eat,what illnesses we have who we f..k, what religion we practice, what books we read, and so on

On one hand we have people claiming that filter bubbles lead to the collapse of civilization, and on the other we have that the same services will lead to conformity.

Based on current trends, it seems like the filter bubble problem is winning. So maybe an all-knowing AI Google would be what saves us? ;)

The alternative view of course is that there won't be one AI, there will be many. And they will compete to please people more so people are more likely to use their services.

If you want to go hyperbolic again, Brave New World is how it ends. Personally, I'm more than happy to trade information for services that work well.
> Top-level async would make asynchronous IO no different from synchronous IO! It's the worst of both worlds.

No it's not. Synchronous IO blocks everything. Asynchronous IO with top level await would still allow things queued in the event loop to execute. Plus, top level await + Promise.all would allow you to do operations concurrently, something that synchronous doesn't.
Dirty Little Secret, They're not. The Average American Adult Spends 5.5 hrs a day watching video content, this adds up to 38.5 hrs a week. Allowing for 8 hrs of sleep a day, an average of 47 hrs a week working for a full time worker and you're left with 26.5 hrs to fulfill the requirements of adulthood listed in the article. The only mention of TV/media viewing came by way of the time spent to purchase one, never a mention of the amount of time spent on one. http://www.emarketer.com/Article/US-Adults-Spend-55-Hours-wi...

You're not busy if you're watching a day and a half's worth of television every week. It's one of my pet peeves to hear people say their busy when so much time is devoted to a mindless activity.

Imagine what could be accomplished if instead of turning on and tuning out, people choose to devote that time to side projects, gardening, some other creative hobby, or time spent enjoying nature and each others company.

So, this makes me a little sad because the title makes it seem like top-level await is, in general, a bad thing, but upon closer reading, there only seems to be an issue with using await in conjunction with import -- is this a correct assertion, or am I missing something? I've been making heavy use of await lately, and would love if it were available at the top level, but I have zero intention of using it in the way it's described in the article?
> Enums, even with associated data, are rather obvious values, aren't they?

Associated data can be completely arbitrary (and thus possibly not equatable), I expect the designers would rather people use pattern matching instead of the more error-prone boolean constructs, and likely they don't want to add "unnecessary" capabilities so if the developer don't need equatable enums there's no reason to make them and developers can ask for it when they need it.

Rust makes the same choice, so does haskell, though in both enum/data equality is just a derive/deriving away.

Friendship needs to be earned, or it won't really mean anything. Bullying is a terrible thing and needs to be stopped, but this will do little to help out the person being bullied in the long-run.

I was bullied in middle school and finding a good group of friends is what stopped it. But I had to do it myself and earn it.
EDIT - re-reading the above I realise my overall point isn't clear.

The Orlowski piece is based on a lot of fairly unrelated snippets and doesn't really make a clear coherent argument that one can really engage with. I would agree there is cause for concern and a reason to be vigilant but this kind of writing doesn't raise the level of debate or help anyone form a clear view on current dangers. I usually react negatively to any Orlowski piece as I've seen what he is like on matters where I do have some existing views and a certain degree of background knowledge. (previous commenter mentioned his anti-Wikipedia crusade but also his obsession with defending strong IP laws - google for 'freetard orlowski'). In short he has some axes to grind that align nicely with the PR aims of various companies with deep pockets.
I agree, but when I say kids I was thinking more of young kids. Say up until 7 or 8. You don't tend to see much bullying at that age, maybe teasing a bit but they don't seem to be nasty in the way older kids can be when they bully other kids ( like an on going campaign to isolate and intimidate a person).

This is my experience anyhow.
I'm only using normal callbacks and async javascript iterators . No promises or await.
