The aggressiveness is unfortunate (and counterproductive), but comes from the understandable perspective that too much bad press could kill the language before it even gets off the ground.

The Rust thesis is: "You should care about all these things you don't currently care about, and Rust helps (makes) you care about them." In order to enjoy Rust, you need to thoroughly buy in to that idea. Any significant deviation from that thesis defeats the very purpose of the language.

But of course most people aren't going to buy in, because it's an idea predicated on making their lives harder (in the short term) than it currently is. Rustaceans believe the long term benefits are massive, but new users cannot possibly believe that except by taking it on faith. This creates a conflict. The Rustaceans need everyone to give the language faith over an extended period of time, and anyone giving up their faith after a short trial not only drops out of the ecosystem themselves, but possibly damages the faith of others. That's a huge problem, because Rustaceans are hoping their language will one day take over a significant portion of the systems/embedded development space. That can't happen if people sour on the language so quickly. So when Rustaceans see someone slam their language with giving it an "honest try," they get upset because the damage done is palpable.

Of course, that's the wrong strategy, as it just drives people further away from the language. The right approach is to be inhumanly kind and accepting so that the frustrations are counterbalanced by support. The good news is that the Rust community at large seems to be quite nice; it's just the angry ones that show up in blog comments.
You dont see the ironie do you?

I read the first paragraph then skimmed 5 or 6 more before thinking, "I have no idea what this article is about". I expected to be reading about The Paris Review closing it's doors.

I wish I could down vote on Hacker News so I could down vote the original article. I suspect they got all their employee's or maybe just the authors friends to upvote it here.
It requires a polarizing filter/film that's aligned with the screens dot matrix.

In theory that could also be added as aftermarket modification.

If the screen is fed with an interlaced 3d stream and the screen firmware/hardware allows 1:1 pixel playback it doesn't need to know if the content is 3d or not.

Yeah, I've seen a number of posts like this for go as well. I wonder if it may be useful to start programming in these languages with a more experienced buddy to ask questions if and do some coffee reviews, to reduce time spent banging one's head on the keyboard, and get better acquainted with the language's idioms.

A lot of Democrats were the primary perpetrators no more than a week ago. I've gotten sick of this 8 year cycle in which everyone flips their stance on whether or not a President who is for the most part doing the same things as the one before him is a bad guy or not.

It's nice to have the anti-war left back, but I'll miss the small-government conservatives. My guess is the Patriot Act will stick around again but Democrats will be back to hating it.
Our bodies can cool themselves decently well by sweating. I think that if the climate was affecting you to the point where your brain was getting cooked, the symptom would probably be less "slightly dumber" and more "seizures and organ failure".

But I'm not a doctor or a scientist, so I could be completely wrong. Hopefully someone more informed will weigh in.
Not sure if I am product manager per se but here's my story.

Have been a developer for about 12 years, starting at the very bottom at age 18 with no degree or other qualifications. Got promoted through all the different seniorities throughout that time. Then my current company created a new management role for me (Head of Product Development) about a year ago, giving me the dev team and my previous boss (Head of IT) the tech support.

I'm still very much involved in the actual coding but now I am involved in higher level decision making and am the first point of call in anything todo with our products (basically a SaaS company). There's a lot of pressure meeting deadlines etc whilst managing the HR (which I could do without) of my team, but I still love my job 99% of the time.

Edit: Skills are

1. being approachable from all areas of the business and understanding everyones point of view

2. being able to handle deadlines and manage them appropriately

3. actively keep an eye on the relevant areas in your industry and market

4. work directly with customers where applicable

5. being creative

6. hitting said deadlines!

This is really excellent.
I have a BS in computer science and a MS in human-computer interaction. Basically, my specialty is wearing many hats in order to get at the needs of the user. I started out as a junior dev, but always tried to get out in the field and talk to users. It was a natural shift to take on a product role.

Twice now in the last year I've waited at intersections for the walk signal and when it came on I almost got run over and got beeped and screamed profanities at by drivers taking a right. I guess now drivers believe that they have the right to the road 100% of the time and nobody should ever be allowed to cross, even at crosswalks during the prescribed time for crossing.

Drivers have become increasingly hostile in the last several years.

I've used the system, and I like it, but I find that carrying around pend and paper is a burden. Especially when I have my smart phone on me 24/7. I use Wunderlist instead. It has it's faults, but it does most of what I need it to.
If you live in California and you are at all concerned about this, you must call Sen. Feinstein's offices and tell her staff that you oppose the Senator's vote to confirm Pompeo and will work to support her opposition in the 2018 midterms (she is up for re-election).

This. I'd wager that the entire set of hardware and software tools most of us use to make a year's worth of income could be purchased with two weeks of income (or less). The laptop being the majority of it. That's pretty astounding.

So yah, did I just drop ~$2,500 on a new MBP? Yes. Did I enjoy spending it? No, but I also want the thing to "just fucking work" and it's a tiny fraction of my income considering my last Apple laptop lasted me almost 4 years... before I dropped it.
I don't agree. I think they are self-serving and thus create the 'necessity' just by stint of existence. We wouldn't need the CIA if the CIA hadn't convinced us, using lies and subterfuge, that we need it.
> That's why there is Vulkan. OpenGL doesn't offer enough control to address such cases and isn't even designed to be parallelized.

That's why there is libGCM (PS4) and NVN (Nintendo Switch; cf. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1297662). Vulkan doesn't offer enough control to address such cases and isn't even designed to take full-advantage of the hardware that is available in the concoles.
VR doesn't necessarily need to be active. Passive VR might be a great way to start, especially if it can display the content already created for 3d TVs. I think the jury is still out on the best VR control interfaces when you are actually engaged with the content.

I'd love to see Passive VR content and active VR content develop side-by-side like Movies and Videogames did.
It could have also have been a ploy to get theaters to upgrade their projection equipment to the new DRM-ed digital projectors.

If you literally could not tell the difference, then something may have been wrong with the demo. It is true you do need the brightness turned up, since you can't get the range if you cut the top end down too far in the first place, and I've seen it said you really can only get it in a dark room because of that.

If that makes you less interested in getting HDR because you don't always watch TV in a dark room, well... yeah, it's definitely a more niche feature.

However, IMHO the more interesting thing about the HDR standards is the improved color gamut. That is quite noticeable when you get content that uses it properly, but there's precious little of it right now. However, I do occasionally commit videophile sin and turn on my TV's "fake up a guess about how the color gamut might look" mode even though my media isn't technically mastered in that, and there are some things that it does make beautiful, even if it is technically inaccurate. Inside Out in particular is jaw-dropping on my TV in Fake-o-HDR mode. (Which isn't entirely implausible, as I understand it the original movie is in an expanded gamut, but there's no Bluray that has the expanded gamut version AFAIK.)
I've got an LG dumb TV and it's terrific. Mine's lasted a few years already but they probably still make them.
pretty much the whole population who can see perceive color. about 15-20% don't see in stereoscopic 3d. I'm one of those and i like seeing this 3d trend die...
I watch videos in VR. It completely blows me away in a way that no other display technology has. I can simulate a theater experience fairly well, ignoring the current low resolution of 1st gen HMD's. Its really an unbelievable experience for cinephiles. My tiny spare room can magically be converted into something close to a full size theater. That's not something to dismiss outright.

For regular people, absolutely not, the TV and the couch works so much better as they expect a social experience and a certain level of convenience, but lets not dismiss what's possible here and what the potential market could be. Its also certainly not an either/or proposition here. The same way I have a 55" TV but also have television on tablets, laptops, and phones.

Also, VR doesn't need to be "big" to make it, the same way PC gaming doesn't need to be "big" to make it. My mom and grandma will never buy a higher end gaming PC, yet somehow PC gaming survives.

Remember, we had endless cynicism about music players[1], phones, and tablets as well. I think the cynical approach as the default in tech makes some sense as there's so much marketing led hype, but with phones and tablets the utility was fairly obvious early on. I believe this is true with VR today.

From an implementation standpoint that makes sense. From a usability standpoint it does not. The use case of systems programming usually involves many mutators on a single piece of, non-copiable, data. I can see why the person writing the Rust prover would say "yea this is the best" but I can't see why anyone else would because it's filter cuts out a large portion of completely valid code that is not incorrect but instead is "scary" or "spooky".

> If you can formalize a better model you can probably implement it in a language, but what model would that be?

I'm just someone on the internet here to complain. I can't do that because I'm not a smart math person who can prove how to get there or even generalize it to work with other programming related things.

Heuristics. Lots of them.
These patches fill holes in longstanding bugs generally, so are good things to always apply.
All the "hard" things a user learns in Rust have to be learned in C++, too. It's just some things are learned in a different way in Rust (e.g. fighting with the borrow checker) than they would be in C++ (e.g. proper use of const(expr), references, moves, etc.).
It only increases immersiveness if it doesn't make you throw up. This is only going to get worse with VR.

Adblock is your friend.
I feel like in a TV metaphor VR is more like black and white TV and AR is Colour.

Essentially VR and AR are 90% the same technology and design challenges, but with AR you feature in the already existing 3D world around you and VR creates one.
Lisps != lisp programs. Lisp lets programmers treat their code as data to be edited at runtime. Which is a different model than say Java.

The advantage is individual programmers can be more productive, but it becomes really hard to share code as every program evolves into it's own language.
3D != 3D. If they can do away with non-IMAX 3D, I'd be happy. The typical cinema experience is just crap - especially because the brightness being usually cut in half compared to the regular, flat movie. But IMAX screens I actually enjoy (even though I wear prescription glasses, which makes watching 3D movies a tricky problem in general).
Also, people aren't that accepting of human imperfection and expect to see people have licences taken away and jailed where they've been deemed to be behaving recklessly (even if they've racked up huge numbers of miles with no previous incidents)
ObjectBox – The New Mobile Database (Android, iOS to Follow)
I've certainly seen movies where that was the case, but The Martian in 3D was amazing. I also thoroughly enjoyed Doctor Strange 3D, though that was on IMAX laser projectors, which are amazing by themselves.
They could put a button on the car to report dirty/smelly/broken car. When pressed, the button would let the car know that it should go to some place for cleaning/maintainance soon and also, depending on how comfortable we are with the required surveillance, fine the previous user of the car either for spilling the drink of for not reporting it.
5yr olds aren't supposed to use the tehnology...possibly can cause developmental problems with 3d perception.

Not only is there work available, by staying in the Microsoft ecosystem, existing clients for Classic ASP are leads for upgrade projects.

If picking an outside technology, PHP might be a reasonable addition to Classic ASP because it often fills a similar niche.

Depending on goal specifics, ASP.NET MVC might be a better option than webforms...even though webforms are a simpler abstraction when I look at them.

Huh? Every cinema I've ever been to provides the 3d viewing glasses for free and collects them afterwards.

Deliver what you agreed to; this is not coextensive with "anything the client wants." Do not do work again for this client. If it gets truly untenable, give the client their money and the code then write this off. [+]

Focus in the future on optimizing your business so that you are not exposed to terrible situations which are within your power to avoid. You should radically raise prices; no one who can spell "CSS media-query" has a market clearing price of $15. Find businesses which can turn PHP into money (you may have to explain how); sell them an offering where one day of your time costs at least about $1,000; do not do work for any business at which that is not a screamingly good deal.

But I'm also not using things like Laravel, Angular, Heroku, being proficient, competent developer.

Tools do not make you a competent developer. Reliably shipping business value makes you a competent developer. The culture of the development community consistently makes developers devalue their own expertise relative to that of a for-profit business; this is a knock on our community and against our interests generally and your interests specifically. Stop talking yourself down, to third parties, to yourself, and (most especially) to clients.

[ + ] You'd generally be allowed to do this by a clause in your contract. I predict with a fair degree of confidence that you don't have an explicit contract for this engagement.

AFAIK the 300M figure or whatever was deliberately misleading, being gross and not net, but not literally false.

Spending that money on the NHS instead would require cutting spending on some of the things that the money we got back from the EU was previously going to. But it wouldn't be logically incoherent, at least not for the reason you suggest.
Maybe it's different in different markets, but in my area, every movie released in 3D is also released in 2D.

They're usually released simultaneously for blockbusters, e.g., 1-2 IMAX screens showing 3D and 1-2 screens showing 2D. For others, they might start out only showing 3D on opening weekend and then transition to 2D as the movies age and move to smaller screens, e.g., Rogue One is still playing in my area but only available in 2D now.

As far as "primary perpetrators a week ago", I mean I'd have preferred that Obama do more to protect civil liberties but he is the guy who pardoned Chelsea Manning, tried to close Gitmo, and god knows what else he pushed back against. Running the executive branch means that by default you're the primary perpetrator, but there are degrees of perpetrating here.

>I.e. it's not about immigration, it's explicitly about racism?

Not really, since first racism implies considering the other race inferior (except of merely unwanted in your own country), and second because foreign cultures usually don't grow on a domestic population, but come in trough immigration.

Of course some immigrants can perfectly adopt the local culture, but those are not the kind of immigrants the anti-immigrant people worry about or what they believe is happening in any large number.

>Define "traditional British culture".

Like all cultures it's a constellation of things, not all present or shared at all times by all members of it, that has developed historically.It doesn't have a mathematical style, absolute definition, but one knows it when they encounter it, the same way they can tell Basil Fawlty, tea, shepherd's pie and Punch and Judy are in it and bluegrass, wabi-sabi, yodelling and Takeshi Kitano are not.
Yeah, .forEach() is a new scope. But the better readability is worth the minor performance impact for everything but the most performance-intensive code.
The only problem with this is I can't imagine the logistics of out-of-town travel, say I want to go 200 miles away for a week. Have the car travel 200 miles and drive back? Have the car stay in the destination city? Then you have to have thousands of cities with some sort of ownership/maintaining agreement.
Indeed. Ideally (need to do more research) the community would self sustaining with a low quality of life, however, all of the usual amenities would be provided. The difficulty is setting it up so that they don't necessarily become entitled or dependent on the advanced amenities.

I don't envy the position and having been on both sides before there's no simple answer. I wish I lived in a reality where I could actually take the time to build meaningful relationships with the press at all times, but most of the time being a little pushy and eek spammy is required to deliver.

Yeah, although Wyoming land is reportedly good for some things (eg grazing), quick Google searches seem to suggest price per acre more around $450 an acre statewide (http://trib.com/business/land-values-skyrocket-in-parts-of-w...).

The thing is, agriculture fertility is not the only factor in rural land price these days -- I've heard ala the linked article that investing in land for hedging / portfolio diversity purposes is popular. It's also no surprise to hear that more aesthetically attractive rural areas will fetch a premium (I would seriously doubt the area around the Grand Tetons region is just $450 an acre for instance; the linked article suggests as much).
3D was a big part of Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby. It made me wish Moulin Rouge had been done in 3D.

I think using 3D effectively is hard, and most films being made don't have a good reason to use it. It also makes my eyes feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm not crazy about it getting widespread use. Most filmmakers don't have the visual sense (and budget/tech crew) of Baz Luhrman or James Cameron.

The Wizard of Oz was a really masterful tech demo for color, because color was a pivotal part of the story. 3D's problem is that it has been totally driven by technologists and financiers rather than storytellers. If the first big 3D film were The Great Gatsby rather than Avatar I think we'd have a very different sense of what 3D is. Although The Wizard of Oz may be unique in the way the tech manages to serve the story just as much as the story serves the tech.
How to Get a Raise the Right Way (Hint: This Always Works)
I saw Doctor Strange on IMAX 3D as well and I must say it was very impressive however there needs to be a good system for rating 3D movie experiences beforehand that way the consumer is not subject to wasting money on a horrible experience.
