I request you to kindly read up more on this subject. Your 'big issue' already exists today! The poor in countries like India are already forced to sell their organs to rich donors in the West through the black market where they are paid a pittance. Debt collectors in India make a killing by preying on the poor. The rich pay the middle-men a truck load of money, but the actual donor gets very little at the end. Formally paying donors will at-least give them a much better price without the middle-men taking most of the money.

How to Test Your Compatibility with PHP7: Intro to PHPCompatibility for PHPCS
I think it's a JS problem with trends around other languages tending moreso to a single eco-system.

Regarding JS frameworks, I think the barrier to entry is still low, and given the suffering involved for any given tool-chain, I'd imagine the temptation to roll ones own is high.

Finally, JS framework fates are tethered to that of the browser. The latter changes frequently, so the former ends up in a refactoring perma-loop.

But then you'd need to answer 100 or more test questions instead of 13. This is necessarily simplistic given how much involvement they can ask of participants.

Also, I don't think they're implying anything nefarious about the resulting biases shown in the final results. For sure a lot of it has to do with the small sample size of the questions. I didn't run the tests twice, but I imagine there is some randomness involved in the way they are generated.

If there are any heuristics at play, the results will indeed show them (in my case there were enough tests to recover the fact that I preferred saving passengers, preferred non-intervention, and preferred saving humans over pets). But it will also come up with some gibberish/noise due to the small sample size.

TokBox | San Francisco, CA / London, UK | Onsite | Engineering, Business Analytics, Business Development, Product

https://tokbox.com/

TokBox makes it easy for developers to embed real-time video, voice, and messaging into their native and web applications. We build the premier WebRTC platform. Want to build the functionality of Google Hangouts, Skype, or Facebook Live? Use us! We have great clients from individual developers to massive players in tech, entertainment, education, and many other industries (customers include Mozilla, the Minerva Project, Chegg, esurance, Major League Baseball, Double Robotics, Fox Sports, and many YC companies). We were acquired by Telefonica 4 years ago. It hasn't changed the culture much, and has helped us reach more customers around the world.

The product is industry leading, the space is growing rapidly and getting hot, and the people are great. It's an awesome group of 100 or so- nice, smart, skilled. We are laid back and have a sense of humor. Minimal politics. Good salary and benefits in a relaxed, enjoyable environment. Actual work-life balance.

We're looking for 2 product managers - one focusing on industry verticals (e.g. the unique needs of education, or financial services, or media companies) and a developer experience PM (ideal for former engineers or evangelists). In engineering, we’re looking for a DevOps engineer to keep things up and running, a media focused backend engineers to expand and maintain our robust, low-latency media server and other systems, a test engineer to automate testing (especially for mobile). Lastly, we're looking for 2 key engineering roles with a direct customer-facing aspect: a solutions architect who will build things for key partners and customers, and a customer success engineer to help champion user needs, answer support requests, and help users solve problems. In business analytics, we're looking for someone to join a small but strong team to help keep us informed and making smart choices. Lastly, in BD, we’re looking for someone with experience in the tech and startup world in London.

That was really well crafted, thank you. Much easier to digest than some of the docs. Though, I'm still not convinced it warrants a new way of describing a collection of patterns for various concerns, e.g. a framework.

You can spin it this way if you like. However, a big part of this framework and Tool epidemic is ego. The trick is to take a dominant framework or tool, find a deficiency, and then rewrite it again with that deficiency fixed. Why? Because if it takes off, your career takes of.

What developers should really do is contribute and make the existing projects better. Everyone will thank you for it.

Gee, thanks.

Now, ignoring the fact that you're immensely disrespectful, you're missing the point of what I'm trying to say. There is nothing wrong with having a small problem that is solved by a simple solution and I'm sharing how I'm solving my problem. I'm not going to choose an engineering solution that's more complex than what I need.

That being said... there are a decent amount of companies that have used Ember to build easy to use and fluid interfaces. I think the very first interface I saw built using Ember was the interface for the Riak data store - which is incredibly slick. Netflix uses it for internal services, Groupon uses it for its website, and so does LinkedIn and Heroku. Actually, technically speaking, Google uses it as well because of their acquisition of Nest - unless they rewrote the Nest store into Angular or something.

If I thought that rendering searchable tables and embedding graphs was more than Ember could handle and would result in a sluggish application then I wouldn't use it regardless of how easy it is to setup. If I thought that it wouldn't allow me to apply basic CSS and buttons and layout principles to my interface so that it's pleasant to use then I wouldn't have used Ember.

And if you think that you can deliver a better web dashboard than what's facing the users of Heroku then I suggest you knock on their door and tell them how to do so.

I am co-moderator of a Donate your unused stuff group on FB. The amount of spam users get is unbelievable, and we've to weed out responses like every few hours. But the most disturbing fact is the harassment the women get on the group. As soon as some woman posts something, she's almost guaranteed to get nasty messages with disturbing content. And these are from verified users who've active FB profiles.

Unless FB weeds out the spammers and the harassing, this is just another way to make quick bucks for FB.

In that sense I guess the thought experiment worked. Perhaps not as intended though. It showed the absurdum in pretending a car can make moral choices.

> But then you'd need to answer 100 or more test questions instead of 13.

Or they could design questions designed to more definitively separate different hypotheses in fewer questions.
I don't think this is about creating realistic scenarios, but about finding out what people take into consideration when making moral judgements. The experiment seems to be designed to gather as many such preferences as possible.

The hope must be that if people consistently prefer saving the life of young people in this made up scenario they will have similar preferences in a more realistic scenario. Of course weather such a generalization holds will have to be confirmed by further studies. But this seems like a good first step to explore moral decisions more.
The Escapist really is a sad story. Back when it started in PDF form in 2005, it was intended to be a high-brow gaming magazine with no news or reviews, just in-depth articles about trends in games. This was compromised when they started doing just those other things, but for a long time they at least didn't include numeric scores in reviews like everyone else (until they compromised on that).

And for a long time even after it became a website, they had a weekly magazine with some really good articles. But that gradually got pushed further and further out-of-focus in favour of more videos until they basically stopped doing it entirely. And then of course they lost most of the worthwhile video series and now it's just a bland gaming press site with Yahtzee.
This is annoying because it's one of several things that stops Fedora/RISC-V from going into Fedora proper, but I'm sure it'll be sorted out.

Edit: To save anyone asking, here are the other things we're waiting on:

* Upstreaming of glibc, kernel and binutils changes.

* Availability of rackable server hardware - required so we can deploy builders in the Fedora datacenter. This is obviously the biggest blocker, and likely several years away. In the interim I'm running my own build server which is currently doing a mass rebuild, but once that is finished will pick packages from the Fedora primary architecture builders and rebuild them for riscv64 (https://fedorapeople.org/groups/risc-v/)

* Upstreaming of qemu changes (happening at the moment). Not a requirement, but nice to have.

This made me lol, thank you ... Those poor carpenters. Thousands of years of metaphorical abuse.
Looking at the long term life of an application, the abundance and volatility of the tools and frameworks is a nightmare. Who will find developers for ZZZZ framework in 3 years from now?

Also the fragmentation of efforts to improve the tools is a waste of resources. Instead of choosing a few directions and delivering, everyone knows better and it's doing his own version of different, but usually not better, tool. That will help anyone else? "Yes!", they will say. "I don't care", they think.
They should definitely try to do things differently. Even when the end result is the same. The reason is simple: it provides an alternate point of view of the problem. Some issues only appear when we try to do things differently. Those issues might exist in the more common approach and be completely unknown.

Great question, we definitely took a hard look on if we should transform our tech stack or not (and decided to do it) - to really answer this question though, you would need to understand our previous stack, what was holding us back, and where we wanted to go.

Your results might seem spurious because of the small sample size, but when aggregating the results of all the participants they will have enough data to be able to conclude how many people did act like you did with apparent preferences due to chance, and how many actually where "biased" in some way.
There is a comparison table at the end of the project's README (https://github.com/afiskon/zson). However, the table columns are not explained very well. It is not 100% clear to me whether "before" means "uncompressed" or "PGLZ compressed".

Ahhh, sorry, I wasn't meaning to be disrespectful, I just felt like it was an important point to shed light on.

I was listening to Joe Rogan's interview of Adam Greenfield (a bowhunter) yesterday, and Adam said something like: "look, if you're looking to get into bowhunting but you don't have the cash to get the best equipment, that's fine. You can still have success with a cheaper bow and without the extra gadgets, but it'll take more time." I'm not saying that you can't build world-class products with Ember, I'm just saying that it probably takes more time if you're getting wrenches thrown at you from design & product.

I also really haven't spent enough time with Ember to really back up my last statement, I'm really just trying to give some perspective from a company-politics / organization-process POV?
