And I don't have a problem with this, but I do have a problem with minimum numbers of parking spots, or giant parking lots that are unutilized during the night or while you're not at work.

Parking spots at place should like Costco are notoriously bad for the planet and aren't some of the least efficient things possible. At some point, the things you value (such as your parks and woods and scenery) are going to brush up against this suburban sprawl and you're going to be upset.

If you value green spaces, you should be encouraging the disuse of cars and mass parking lots.
Yes, heavy-handed government regulations (to which planning belongs) means that you pay, directly or indirectly, for a lot of things you never use.
It is my belief that Windows Forms will outlive WPF and/or XAML. Currently WPF is still the "modern" way to doing Windows applications, but at some point Microsoft will come up with some new scheme, and all the WPF developer will jump onto that.

The developers that have still not abandoned WinForms will not jump shit when the next thing hits either. To keep the huge group of WinForms developers happy, Microsoft will continue to support and develop Winforms. For many, WinForms are still the fasted way to develop simple applications.

So if you want develop for the Windows (desktop) platform, WinForms will be a clear winner for many many years into the future.

The statement "macOS counterpart of the Windows version of Visual Studio" is essentially false as far as I can see, the core of VS for mac is Xamarin Studio which is not Visual Studio.

Visual Studio for windows has two different "cores": the massive old C++/COM-based application used since forever, and the newer subsystems Such as The language subsystem (For C# and VB) Roslyn, which is .NET based.

Xamarin Studio could be using Roslyn, but the app isn't based on the same platform as VS itself is. Since it is at it's core a newer and much smaller application, it shouldn't have to have any of the setup issues that VS has (just like VS code doesn't).

This is what simplistic left/right views that misinterpret everything as "socialism" will mislead you. Merkel leads the centre-right CDU.

You also left out Tony Blair. His "third way" is a good example of how we got here; because unvarnished redistribution and interference in business was unpopular, he decided to run a business-friendly campaign that allowed the existing economic order to continue while taxing it to pay for social programmes. An important part of this was refusing to raise the headline rate of income tax, in order to avoid scaring off middle class voters, while increasing "stealth" taxation in various other places.

As an economic programme it worked brilliantly with genuine broad popularity. It was killed by the response to 9/11, in deciding to join the Iraq war regardless of the actual facts.

There's a command line compiler option to avoid reliance on VC++ redist: /MT (in release mode) or /MTd (in debug mode). Default is /MD (in release mode) or /MDd (in debug mode). With /MT or /MTd Microsoft libc will be linked statically to your application and VC++ redist DLLs won't be required to run the application in the end user environment.

Though there's a shortcoming: if your application consists of EXE file(s) calling into your own DLL(s), then in /MT or /MTd mode you have multiple instances of libc in the process address space, and so tricks like "malloc() in dll, free() in exe" or "open() in dll, close() in exe" will produce weird runtime errors. That won't be a problem if DLL interfaces are strictly C functions and structs, i.e. without classes, STL, smart pointers, exceptions, RTTI-related stuff etc.
Indeed. Secrets already supports importing from 1Password and LastPass for example. More could be added if there's demand for them.
The problem is, say you're an iOS developer, you get no choice; you HAVE to run a Mac and be at Apple's mercy.

Firstly, it's not true that you don't get a choice. Apple still makes laptops with f-keys. And you can always plug in a 3rd party keyboard.

Secondly, an more importantly, of all the options Apple don't give you (and there are an infinite amount of them), this one is so minor. Why, other this is how you are used to it, are the important reasons for using specifically the f-keys to step through a debugger? What is wrong with any of the other keys?

I agree of course that change merely for the sake of change is not a good idea, but surely, surely we can all recognise that Apple did not make this change on whim, simply to try something different?
No way. WPF is too tightly bound to DirectX. Yes there are a lot of requests to do so, but effort is enormous.

Though there are projects that might indicate something (SkiaSharp and VulcanSharp) on mono project github organisation.
Governments see tax heaven everywhere. In the governments eye, they dont tax you 40% - they let you keep 60%. So any drop in tax revenue would certainly antagonize them.

Thats why I said the trading power is neccessery for governments to stomach the harsh reality : They get power from the commerce not the other way around.

It's a good idea. The amount of security gained by distinguishing between upper/lower case is minimal, particularly compared to the support cost. Increase the minimum password length by a character or two to compensate if you're really worried.
Why do you assume I've "bought into" it? I have no intention to marry any time soon, I just think it's unhelpful to completely ignore the reason diamonds are used for engagement rings.
If you have an method for requiring n out of m key parts to use the key, it is fairly easy to see how this can be used to require n out of m characters from a password. The only problem is that just a few characters doesn't have a large enough entropy to prevent the whole thing being brute forced very quickly.
There is a theory of intelligence and metrics for that why do you say that?

Never having worked "in tech" (as in the valley) but in tech outside, I feel like it's not very interesting reading about someone who working in the valley not working in the valley anymore.

It would be many times more interesting reading about someone actually quitting tech as in moving away from the technology sector (not the silicon valley one, the anywhere else one)
Probably some religious non-sense.
The big difference here is how additions in C++ tend to work - e.g. keeping all of the deprecated ill-defined legacy and growning features on it like tumors until there are no more symbols left. Unlike Ada and Python which aren't afraid of throwing away poor design and were overall more thought out in the first place (especially Ada).

Its not a "complexity game" in so much as poor design being over-compensated for. C++ is like cancer infecting the minds of young programmers with buggy habits -- and no amount of features and static analysis will change what lies beneath... :p

They aren't forcing subsidized parking. They're forcing the construction of parking lots and structures.

As for public interest. The idea is that without regulation, new apartments and condos would choose not build parking pushing their residents to park on the street. This causes congestion (cars circling trying to find parking) and makes going to these areas less pleasant. And I'm sure some would say these regulations remove preexisting subsidies, since they prevent new developments from using city streets as their parking lot.

How do these other countries deal with the lack of parking? I think simply suggesting better public transportation and redesigned cities does not solve problems that people are having right now.
Practical Cryptography
IIRC the explanation is really "this is what Intel's stuff is supporting, and we're stuck with what Intel supports", and it would've been potentially another year or more of no MBP refresh if they waited for Intel to get there.
Many people don't like to hear this, but since at least Carter->Reagan Republicans have been a lot better in supporting things like science and space exploration. Probably because no part of our collation considers them intrinsically wrong or evil.

ADDED: LBJ->Nixon cannot be used to judge this due the the was in Vietnam (and to a lesser extent that might hold true for W after 9/11, and he showed his usual "genius" in picking NASA leadership), Nixon/Ford->Carter, though, would bear investigation. And Carter was absolute, total death to anything nuclear, it's just like him to take a small minded view of his experiences in cleaning up this mess: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalk_River_Laboratories#1952_... And, hmmm, this official NASA history says "Jimmy Carter was perhaps the least supportive of U.S. human space efforts of any president in the last half-century...." http://www.nasa.gov/50th/50th_magazine/10presidents.html

Obama might be an exception, though, and I'm pretty sure that's true for space. He's not from the same generation as the bulk of those cultural anti-science Baby Boomer, about my age, in fact, was I'd guess wowed by the Apollo program like I was. Would have to check for his support of science research, though.

I witnessed this first hand when Clinton NASA cutbacks killed the space technologies etc. company I started working at in late 1993, (ADDED:) and they're mentioned in the above NASA history link in the added paragraph above. And of course the cancellation of the already being built Superconducting Supercollider had much more than direct effects, which included a line running outside the MIT EECS Undergraduate Office of students transferring into the department.

This approach works well for me (when I have the motivation to write the list). Breaking each task down into smaller sub-tasks is helpful too. I usually end up with a list of very simple directives that leave little room for thinking (or ruminating).

Having this allows you to concentrate on one thing at a time and avoid 'analysis paralysis', which make you more efficient at some tasks. For example:

Task: 'Clean the house'

1. Grab big garbage bag

2. Go from room to room and put garbage in bag.

3. Put garbage bag in outside bin.

4. Grab large basket.

5. First room: put items that do not belong in room into the basket.

6. Subsequent rooms: Items in basket that belong -> dump somewhere in room. Items that don't belong in room -> in the basket.

....

etc.

Meh.

You also pay for the cost of public parks even if you never use them.

You pay for the cost of government elementary schools even if you homeschool your kids.

etc.

Now, I'm an anarchocapitalist and would love to see all of these costs unbundled, so that we each pay only for what we use.

...but the other 99.9% of folks in our society think that it is reasonable to have one-size-fits-all solutions, where a single basket of goods is created and handed to everyone, regardless of whether they want it or not.

To say "yes, I still want that policy, but I want EXACTLY the bundle of goods that I want forced on everyone, not some other basket of goods" seems like special pleading.
Not really. They do it many times a day, depending on how long the ride is. When people take busses and cabs, they aren't needing parking nor contributing to traffic. If 15 people take a cab instead of driving in a day, that is 14 less cars on the road. This is the main point in general. The traffic with cabs is a bit different - you know how many cabs work on any given day (on average).

I guess you'd be shocked to learn that here, not only can taxis use bus lanes, but so can electric vehicles to help encourage better choices.

I have used both "native" Xamarin and Forms to build apps. Last year Xamarin had a really bad streak with stability but things have certainly improved.

Android itself has so much quirks in development in itself that it is sometimes impossible to abstract away. Xamarin just doesn't show this always so you're chasing the wrong ghost from time to time. Android development is simply madness.

I'm not gonna say Forms is perfect, far from it but it serves a purpose. With a little bit of work I could get everything going that needs to be done. As a single dev I can cover both platforms. If you have the resources go native Xamarin.

Xamarin Studio is actually not that bad, only it has become a bit of resource hog last weeks releases and needs the occosional restart. With the power of MS behind that should certainly be improved.

Xamarin.Forms is now open source, but I really hate that the PR's are slow to being reviewed and 1 contributer is outpacing the Xamarin team in his spare time. Clearly something is brewing, they must be working on something new. Or else they should ditch and start something else.

We'll hear about it in a few days.

There's a complication in that if you're spinning off massive profits per customer but re-investing them in expansion, you won't show any GAAP profits, but your revenue will increase exponentially and as soon as you stop expanding you'll be massively profitable.

Amazon & Uber are in a very different league from say Fab or Homejoy. If your core business segments are profitable but you're investing that money into moving into other segments, then you're in good shape. If you're losing money on every new customer and making it up in volume, you have a problem.
I'm sure part of the problem is I grow into my available RAM and storage like a goldfish. I'm sure some attention to optimization or constraints would make things less limiting but it's nice not having to think about it and just do stuff.

> The reason why rent is so high in these places is because there's a lot of demand to live there -

No. Mere demand alone does not raise costs. There is a lot of demand for water, but it is still super cheap.

Prices are high when demand is high and supply is low.

The reason that prices in Manhattan and SF are high is because (a) lots of people want to live there, and simultaneously (b) government policies severely limit the ability of developers to generate more housing units there.

I've spent the last 4 years doing development from a 2012 macbook air with 8 gigs of ram. Its been totally fine, except when I've got a million chrome tabs open. (Declaring bankrupcy and closing them all at once feels great though.)

The posted article is about a mac version of visual studio. Coincidentally, visual studio only runs in 32 bit mode and hence can only make use of 4 gigs of ram total:
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ricom/2015/12/29/revisiting...

The article is worth reading. They (correctly) have kept asking "why does VS need more ram than that?" and just optimize the code when the footprint grows bigger.

And I'm genuinely confused by all these people complaining about 16 gigs of ram not being enough. If you have a laptop today with 16 gigs of ram, have a look. Do you actually run out of ram while working? (And if so, what on earth are you running?). It looks like its genuinely hard to fill 16 gigs without chrome or slack running. Look at all the stuff you can fit in that much ram: https://www.zdziarski.com/blog/?p=6355

I'm also a big fan of pushing app developers to fix their cruft. Maybe in 2016 its not ok to have apps that suck up as much ram as possible. Maybe app developers shouldn't write super inefficient software just because next year we'll have bigger computers anyway. Maybe if you're writing software (any kind of software) that really does need more than 16 gigs of ram to work effectively you should fix your shitty code instead of demanding everyone buy new computers. The atari 2600 had 128 bytes of RAM, and played all sorts of cool games. The original X-Box had 64MB of ram and ran Halo. Maybe its not apple's fault that your fancy 3d graphics program can't work properly in 'only' 16 gigabytes of ram. (Especially given there's 2 gigabytes/second of SSD bandwidth available on those new machines. Yummy!)

I love the fact that the new machines are small and portable. The hardware is more than capable of doing everything I need it to do. The only barrier to all day battery life now is crappy software.

I've used Xamarin for several projects and I greatly regret that decision. Granted, most of my hatred is targeted towards Xamarin Studio and Xamarin.Forms so if you use Visual Studio and build only native UIs then maybe your experience will be better.
The people who make film/game soundtracks need a LOT of ram, and fast disks, because they're using terabytes of samples in each project. Also massive has pretty low requirements.

The main gripe musicians have with apple is the new OSX breaking their setup every year. The sandboxing in el capitan was particularly disastrous.
Not sure if I'd call it "non-trivial" (as I'm using it to make other code more trivial), but I use IFTTT to ease up on the coding required to fully automate ongoing background personas for bots/AIs.

Rather than coding boring frameworks to post to Facebook/Twitter/Tumblr/500px/Wordpress/etc (or spending time implementing/maintaining existing libraries), I just hit my web APIs to fetch what to post and post it through IFTTT. Sucks that some destinations (e.g. Facebook) have the source app it posted through ("IFTTT") at the top, but most people overlook/ignore it.
