Does this theory work if you apply it to the past? Have Snowden's leaks about surveillance or relevations about Obama's drone programme (killing people, even US citizens, without trial and with a lot of collateral damage) resulted in any change in government behaviour (except more secrecy and extensive supression of leaks/information)?

My take on these questions is "no", but I haven't been following the events in detail, so I might be missing some positive consequences.

That way he would have spent just as much money, but sitting in front of a computer instead of being coked up with strippers.
>you decide to shit on lisp

I don't shit on lisp, I've been for lisp since I discovered it many years ago. I'm against new worthless implementations presenting lisp as language only capable to parasite on other platforms, without having it's own real thing.

To me lisp is an idea, which ironically found it's best implementation (from what I've seen so far) in Rebol.

Have you considered asking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_(demoparty) to rename itself, then?

They've been using that name since 1992, and if those guys aren't "scene coders" then I've never seen one.

I never went back in the day, but pretty sure I didn't primarily interpret it as "ooh, a congregation of people".
Only two. I suspect next year's models will all have it.

I just can't do running, for the sake of running. I will grudgingly run up and down a basketball court, but at least there there is the promise of analyzing and exploiting the geometry of the court on the offensive or defensive end to do something interesting once you've chugged down the court.

The exercise that I miss most, ironically, given how much I cussed about it as a kid, is sawing, splitting and stacking firewood. It can be almost meditative, and its fantastic for building real, functional strength.
> On the other hand, the tech side of an S Class or a 7 Series is too underwhelming

I hope by that you meant they are using engines which run on overprocessed dinosaurs ?

Besides that, I guess techwise both the S Class and 7 series have more than anyone would want. For eg the S Class (or maybe the 7 or both) has had steering correction for crosswinds for a couple of years now ! Besides other things like night vision, automatic breaking etc etc

They are not self driving for sure but I believe many S Class or 7 series owners/leas holders don't drive themselves. They pay someone else to drive them around most of the times.

When people talk about handling in these contexts, I always wonder what they mean. Unless you take your car to the track, all your driving is either on residential roads, where you obviously (hopefully) won't be going fast, or on freeways, which are just long stretches of straightforward road.

I've been a driver for twenty years and I have never felt like I cared about 'handling'. When car reviewers talk about it I always picture a 45 year old man-child white-knuckling the wheel at the local intersection while revving his 325i, eyes darting between soccer moms and pensioners in the cars around him and imagining himself to be Ayrton Senna. Though that is probably uncharitable :)

I have owned many different cars between a top-end BMW and a beater Hyundai. The BMW is certainly a more enjoyable ride, but 'handling' was never a concern, except perhaps in a very occasional circumstance that might have gotten me arrested.
I've walked three miles a day, every weekday this year, and not lost so much as an ounce - I've shed a lot of thigh fat, true, but the increase in calf and thigh muscle mass easily makes up for that.

Same for the situps and pushups I've been doing since August. I'm a hell of a lot more fit than I was, and I move better than I have in years. Hasn't made my gut any smaller. Sure, I've had to put three new holes in my belt, and probably need to go down a waist size next time I buy trousers. But it turns out that improved abdominal muscle tone just means you carry belly fat higher, so even though my waistline's shrunk, I actually look fatter than I did before. (On the other hand, I can move like I did in my twenties, so I'm willing to take the hit to my narcissism here.)

I've twice in the last decade lost fifty pounds or more in under a year. Both times, I did it purely by means of calorie restriction.

Exercise will make you healthier. It will not, by itself, make you lose weight. You do that by making sure that (calories in - calories out) has a negative sign, daily, over a long period of time. Aerobic exercise can help in that you burn more calories that way. But it's an adjunct, and insufficient on its own.

It's not easy, especially when you start out habituated to large meals and highly caloric sugary foods. It is absolutely doable, and the younger you start, the easier it is.

Advice on learning Python efficiently
> And if what I’m truly trying to do is to learn to think about problems in a different way, a week-long effort at dabbling in a side project isn’t going to change my way of thinking.

I'm not sure that's why people try different languages. Certainly what I've gained from messing around with different languages over time (e.g. most recently rust) is exposure to different ideas and ways of doing things. Do I "think about every problem as if it should be a collection of tables in the third normal form"? No, but when I do need to decide how to store data I have a much better idea of how I would do it, or what I needed to look at.

Gaining experience of a range of ideas is a good thing irrespective of whether it changes the way you think. For example, if you know only one language (or one type of language), it can be quite hard to differentiate in your head whether something is a limitation of the language or a limitation of the problem. ("If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail")

That being said, I do take his point that it is worth spending some time learning about things that aren't programming languages: testing, security, business, etc. After all, software development isn't anywhere near just programming. But really it shouldn't be a question of "do I learn this or that?". Read into things that you're interested in, or that would be useful at work, or just something completely different that will broaden your horizons a bit.

I don't think it matters particularly if that is a new language or not.

Good thing that's not all I wrote, then. Kudos for ignoring most of the rest to focus on that.

As for the other part of your comment, when I mentioned swimming etc. in the context of overall benefit, not harm to joints. I've yet to see evidence that cycling is easier on the joints, and I've seen plenty that it's slightly below running in terms of aerobic benefit. Sure, an elite cyclist probably has a higher VO2max than I do, but if we compare apples to apples then we'd have to compare to an elite marathon runner and I don't think that comparison would look so good.

No it doesn't it's the complete opposite the battery capacity decreases with the max current draw from each cell...

If you have a battery with high capacity it would have a very small sustained draw and vise versa.

The chemistry that allows for dense storage doesn't allow for high capacity and vise versa.

Some of the new chems that are specially designed for EV's try to marry the best of both worlds but in both cases you can have a considerably higher capacity or considerably more power if you use chem that was optimised for either.

I want to say yes, but then I think about people who have an IQ of 60 and it pains me to say that they are not cut out to program, unfortunately. I want them to be able to reach for the moon, but in that sense, I don't think they can. Likewise, I'm not the best fit for becoming a yoga instructor.

Looking at the extremes makes it easy to find examples of people who aren't cut out for it.
In other words:

(1) "I love functional programming! Therefore, newer languages that aren't following in the mold of Haskell are conceptually antiquated."

... yet...

(2) "I don't care about static typing. Therefore, it's cool to ignore the trend of most major languages moving in that direction over the past decade."

Then of course the Rust and Swift guys would tell you that Clojure is an anachronism for relying on garbage collection. Etc, etc...

All of these trade-offs, at the level on which they're commonly discussed on HN and other forums, are matters of subjective preference. And that's okay. Disrespecting other communities for their subjective preferences, while trying to give it the objective veneer of "You've ignored the latest 'advances'!", is just pretentiousness.

So 1/3 is "everything" to you? Also, elevated cortisol levels are associated with any exercise done to excess. Why single out running? Why focus on the negative? Running might not be the best possible exercise, there might be others that are even better, but it's highly accessible and running is overall better than not doing anything. That's totally lost in all the FUD the OP was slinging.
Maybe this price increase is related to the decline of the pound or it is to offset the increased costs caused by the Snooper's Charter.

It's a shame, because in all other aspects I really like Quiver.
from the article:

> Our tour of the Oxford University Museum helped us see the strength of a tradition of natural theology that enabled a generation of clerical naturalists to integrate their discoveries in historical geology with their deepest beliefs about God, nature, and humankind. In the end, it’s true, they failed to secure this synthesis—but only because a rising generation, unable to see the God of nature revealed in the rocks and fossils quite as clearly as their predecessors had done, aspired instead to be free from what they took to be the meddling influence of the clergy in matters scientific.

To be scientific the theory must be falsifiable, i.e. there must be an experiment that you can that can prove that the theory is false.

How do you distinguish using fossils which god is the real one? Zeus or Jupiter?

The election is over. Can we stop thinking about this as Trump good = Clinton bad or Clinton good = Trump bad, and worry about the policies of the actual president-elect instead of the possible policies of a past secretary of state?

I have my (extremely positive) opinions of Clinton, but they're irrelevant now. If there's something we disagree with Trump on, that's not a pro-Clinton statement because there's no chance of Clinton becoming president in the next four years.

Ideally, he shouldn't have to acknowledge Clinton at all to make the point he's making. The fact that he feels obligated to, and that that's seen as a good and moderate statement, is a sign of how uphill the fight to effectively oppose our president's bad policies is going to be. (Although we might also have inferred that from how poorly we're effectively opposing our current president's bad policies.)

Surely this isn't as great as yacy would be in theory (the results currently are usually very bad) and isn't really future proof as if this gets too many requests, google and the rest would definitely do something against it, but for now it's pretty decent.

Yes. I use a T61 with a Core2Duo 2.5 Ghz, 3 gb of ram , and a SSD for browsing, Python and some image editing. Yes, it could be a bit faster but overall it's fine and I don't see any reason to upgrade.

At worst, "handling" is the difference between a car that's fun to drive and one that bores me. At best, it's the difference between smashing into the truck that stops suddenly at highway speeds and making it onto the shoulder.

Normally I'd agree. But some email you regularly (eg every few weeks) until you respectfully decline. Granted that's infrequently enough where I could just ignore it.

3) is extremely subjective. I have a love for running. You can say it's repetitive, dull, hurtful .. and I'd agree totally.

I was extremely ill last year, couldn't even jog; the first time I could sustain mild jogging I cried of happiness.

I love all kinds of sports, biking, skating, soccer, tennis, badminton you name it. Yet running has a special wire in my spine. When you're in flow, you feel like flying, it's a bit surreal. I'm not a regular runner anymore and I can't have long periods like these but still.
Using printf on everything is basically the same as debugger but a lot slower. People also tend to commit those added lines (sometimes commented for future uses) which clutters code base. I think that using permanent logs on higher verbosity plus debugger is a lot more productive.
