> So you can imagine having your app in Java, but still call Python for something else if you really wanted too.

That's a pretty interesting possibility, I might tinker with this. I don't mind Java, but vastly prefer Python+numpy+scipy for technical computing and algorithmic experimentation. Java for the GUI/platform specific stuff with the creative stuff in Python works well for some side projects that I've done. In those cases, I interfaced them via REST API to a server, then later translated to pure Java.
>> "More than 3.1 million developers read our announcement post of Next.js. "

Really? 3.1 million developers? I'm not saying I don't believe, but wow, how?

edit: actually I am saying either I don't believe or you've miscalculated somehow.
in some way, we are just piecing together representations of each other from the photons that fly into our eyes. so maybe 'reality' is only as good as these photons that we receive anyhow.
The truly monstrous users like myself use both systems: 3 monitors, with multiple virtual spaces on each. I can't have it any other way. The primary spaces on each monitor are a) IDE, b) Chrome, c) Terminal. The secondary space on monitor 1 is database tool, monitor 2 is Postman for API testing, monitor 3 is a split-screen of email and Slack.

A benefit of this system are that email and Slack are on a dedicated screen, but on a secondary space of a secondary monitor. The distraction of those communication tools is completely out of the way; I specifically switch to that screen when I am willing to switch out of "real work". Yet it's not complicated at all - a single 3-finger swipe to the left on monitor 3.
Invitation to Love by Fr Thomas Keating. While teaching about contemplative prayer, Fr Keating describes clearly the emotional programs for happiness (security, esteem, control) which we develop before maturity and which distract us as adults from knowing our true selves. I long ago picked my nickname from his description of our journey: reptilian, typhonic, mental egoic, unitive.

Ditto. I have two dead macbook pros with good screens / keyboards. The mobos are dead and nobody will buy them from me. This seems like a possible future project. I make writing software and I've always wanted to make a cut down Linux distro for writers (there used to be one but its no longer available). Rpi would be a perfect target, and a MacBook screen and keyboard would be a nice addition

I'd also love to stick a pi in an old keyboard computer like an Atari ST or Amiga.
No ‘debt account at NATO,’ says German government
It think this linguistic approach remains very superficial in that it only targets vocabulary and ways to represent it and to translate it. It does not tackle the "deep structure" the grammar that underlies and, in my belief, determines everything that sits above. Yes, I know, I'm a chomskian... I also understand that this would have propelled the narrative in a wildly weird area where most spectators would have probably gone to do some other thing than to watch. And "Arrival" is not a bad movie.
I just wonder what would a truly alien language, with a truly alien underlying structure, would look like. Much more than vocabulary keys could be needed to even begin to communicate.
This is also where the SW hypothesis would begin to really become hugely significant.

I really liked Stranger Things and Master of None. Didn't like Daredevil or Luke Cage, which are two of their better reviewed shows.

This is one of the reasons why I appreciate Netflix. Instead of a bunch of shows that everyone considers average, it's taken some risks and created shows that some people consider great and others dislike. I'll take that over a bunch of lukewarm shows anytime.
I think you can (pending driver support?) plug one of these in and memory map it. On Linux, this means you'd see it as a "DAX" filesystem, and if you mmap(2) a file, you get a bona fide direct mapping of the hardware into your address space. This is very cool and would enable some interesting database-ish use cases.

I'll believe it when I see the spec and the code.
Seems like the most logical explanation is that [teaching|nursing|child care] are inherently hostile industries for men. Gender norms in America make it so that men aren't generally trusted around children, and face difficulties in navigating woman dominated fields like nursing.

Are you arguing that tech hasn't developed into a somewhat hostile environment for woman because men face difficulties in some industries as well? Because if so that's a poor argument. It's completely possible for both to be true for the same reason while have different underlying causes
It's striking how many women in this article mention bad relationship with bosses as the main reason to leave. No question, this is a very legitimate reason. I'm just surprised that it looks like it happened quite often through their careers. I did have terrible bosses maybe couple times through my almost 20-year work experience, but it never was so much a problem -- low pay, or boring job were the main reasons I switched employers. I would assume from this article that women are more sensitive to relationships with their bosses than men. Which might require special training for the both parties to overcome. I'm pretty much sure that if several men were asked what made them leave, bosses would not be such a major issue.

Bitcoin and the new scam
Just as a heads up, this board is often extremely logical. So using the argument "You won't win people over" around here, being filled with people who care much more about being technically (read: the best kind of) correct, is probably going to not get you very far (if anywhere, at all).

That said, I think you're missing the point most others are making, which is that your argument is missing the point others are trying to make, "where there's a will, there's a way" or perhaps more aptly, "prohibition doesn't work" as we've seen countless times through history.

edit: I also think at the heart of what everyone else is getting at is perhaps anger at the fact that while they feel their argument is perfectly logical ("prohibition doesn't work"), they know, like you, that it's not very convincing (again, look to history, we've had a 4 decade war on drugs after several failed prohibitions throughout our country's history that did all of nothing for stopping revenue streams and usage of prohibited substances).
AIUI, the controversy was generated based on definitions within generative linguistics that were ambiguous; the Chomskyans clarified what they meant by "recursion" for their purposes, and the controversy should have evaporated. That didn't stop the Chomskyans from getting Everett barred from conducting research among his friends the Pirahã or documenting their language. http://www.chronicle.com/blogs/linguafranca/2012/03/28/poiso...

If I had to boil it down to a sentence, Everett's claim ultimately was not that the Pirahã can't think recursively, it's that their language reflects a cultural aversion to referring to things that aren't concretely present, and this impacted their grammar for subordinating clauses.

OTOH, and quite separate from the recursion issue, there has been some really interesting research on Pirahã perception of number. The ScienceDirect link/paper in the parent is well worth your time; it's also here https://www.researchgate.net/publication/5308732_Number_as_a... and background at LanguageLog http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=341

Honestly, I was never made aware of any metrics regarding inbound comms from the district office, so I can't really say.

I think the reason people say that phone calls are the most effective is because they are the most exhausting to deal with, and thus may leave the strongest impression on those who have to deal with them. From there, it's a matter of flow of information within the Rep's office. If anything, I would suggest that callers ask how exactly their opinions will reach their representative at the end of the call. Find out if a staffer will be relayed this information, and if so, which, and then inquire how that staffer will be relaying it to the rep. Adding verbal accountability may increase the likelihood of it getting moved up the chain?

I'm with you 100% here, yeah, and I agree entirely with the points made here [https://subfictional.com/thoughts-on-recent-drupal-governanc...]. But I don't think Dries has the credibility to act in the community's best interest and also in the best interest of Acquia. As an officer of Acquia he has a fiduciary responsibility; his responsibility to Drupal is purely ethical.

I'd argue that Ryan can't really gain from making a claim that Dries is trying to damage his business, because then he's admitting that his business has been damaged without any real recourse. But I do agree that he knows plenty that we don't!

My thesis is not that Crell's behavior was acceptable. I know I don't have the standing to opine on that. My thesis is that Dries isn't accountable for this conflict of interest and the demands of running a venture-backed startup are largely at odds with the demands of running a community worthy of its code of conduct.

Of course, Dries is not the only BDFL with this kind of a conflict of interest. Many of us who have a career on the Internet live in the shade of one tree or another...
Ouch. That seems pretty egregious. I would hope that Microsoft would at least make 'public' sharing the thing you would have to select and authorize rather than making it the default. But apparently that wasn't the choice here.
the current model is either pay the base-sub, or play in CPU limited mode. the only P2W interactions could be buying subscription tokens and selling them on the market for ingame credits (which you'd then use to buy more resources off the market from other players). You cannot purchase more compute time than the subscription allows

CPU-Wise, if you pay the compute time is tied to your account level, with a hard-cap if you're level 30 (there are still only a few players that have achieved this, it takes many months)

Yeah I have 3. I can & do use just one when I work from home on a laptop, and I've long been a fan of "uni-tasking" so I totally see his point. But it tends to be not-as-fast. My usual modus operandi with 3 screens is to have one instance of the IDE in the middle for whatever I'm working on, one instance on the right for the relevant dependency or example I'm following, and then on the left is usually some type of docs or Stack Overflow. Or Hacker News if it's break-time. When my neck starts to hurt from looking left for too long, that means it's time to get back to work!
From the "which commands" link, it seems that they're using Blahtex to convert LaTeX to MathML:

http://gva.noekeon.org/blahtexml/

Neat feature. I think I might get a lot of use out of it as a "lighter-weight" way to write up documents that include math, using the nice LaTeX syntax, while still keeping the document as a whole WYSIWYG (better for graphics and makes it easier to avoid going back afterward for a fixing-up step). Plus, I can edit from both my Mac and iPhone with automatic sync. (There are existing LaTeX apps for iOS that can do that too, but this seems to be a solid option.)

Edit2: Tried it out on iOS. Two limitations: equations can't wrap across lines, and inserting a new equation requires a few taps - not super cumbersome but enough to discourage a "fluent" style of frequently going in and out of math mode within a sentence. Still useful.
Might be a selection bias issue- the type of women that would participate in this might also be the type to cite relationships a causal factor.
no, that's how you get status quo bias. the current system makes money, so if that's all you focus on, you'll never address the fact that it treats some demographics worse than others.

also, this sort of "extrapolate to the absurd" list ("religion, sex, gender, age, height, phase of the moon (maybe you employ werewolves), etc.") is a classic red flag for someone not caring about the very real inequalities in the system - the most common variant is "i don't care if you're white, black, green or purple...", but what it really works out to is "i think we can just brush any black-person-specific problems under the carpet and everything will be fine".

> It stills feels wrong on a gut level, and semver folks might not be happy with it, but it seems to make some real sense.

Wouldn't this be valid semver if the APIs or general functionality hasn't changed? Or isn't expected to?
> No, it remains your unfounded - and untrue - assertion.

Which part do you assert is untrue, that there are developers actually living in SV, or that making more money there is equivalent to making less money somewhere with a lower cost of living?

> A lot of people have salaries very close to those in Silicon Valley, in housing markets significantly cheaper than Silicon Valley. Haven't you heard of remote work?

Everybody wants remote work at SV salaries. That doesn't mean everybody can get it.

It's obviously true tautologically that people who don't live in SV don't have to live there, but those are also not the people bidding up area rents or riding a shuttle with people protesting outside it.

You still haven't offered any explanation for why the people living in SV continue to do so if it was actually possible for them to do the same thing you're doing.

> We're not talking about better or worse developers. We're talking about developers at the same level, often the same people as they move from job to job.

We are talking about better or worse developers, or what is your argument? When one person goes from making less money to more money, all it shows is that they were previously under-compensated (or are now over-compensated) for their skill level. Or that their skill level has changed. If big companies were paying higher salaries to the same developers then how would that create any advantage for them?

> Rich companies can and do pay higher salaries regardless of the worker's location. That creates a feedback loop, distorting both labor and capital markets, turning temporary advantages into permanent ones and stifling competition.

Rich tech companies don't have a monopoly on capital. If all it took is to pay developers a lot of money then it would be Wall St rather than tech companies doing the paying and collecting the yields.

> I've worked at a lot of startups, and learned a lot about their advantages and disadvantages relative to larger competitors. Over-regulation was never one of those problems, and nobody responsible for setting strategy was ever so ideologically blind that they tried to pretend otherwise.

Over-regulation isn't a problem for the startups that actually exist -- VCs don't fund the ones the regulations make prohibitive and provide the money to pay the cost for the others. But the result is fewer startups, so rich companies can afford to buy every one of them that poses a threat to them.

Let me give an example of bad regulation. DMCA 1201 (or software patents, or the CFAA, or whatever they use this year), which Apple et al use to lock smaller entities out of their platforms unless they pay 30% and just outright prohibit people from making apps they don't like. Are you taking the position that that sort of a veto doesn't prevent startups that would otherwise compete with Apple's apps from getting off the ground?

I and my boss both make sure this is a win-win and my wife has an agreement to call twice or more if she needs to get hold of me before next time I check Telegram.

No, it is premature when it is not necessary for the deployment (at some future point in time).

When I was developing for mobile phones (long before the iPhone), the decision of what to optimize when required some educated guesses where the phone market would be in 6 months, when the application is market-ready. (And: In the end, we did optimize a lot of code that did need no optimization 6 months later, but those optimizations made development work much, much more bearable.)

> When "mere disagreement" is something like "I don't think you should have the same rights as me because your sexuality/gender/class/religion is different" then, uh, yes.

Part of maturing is learning how to stand for one's ideas and beliefs, as well as learning how to deal with (bigoted) opposition to those. Isolating yourself, locking yourself in the echo chamber will make you unprepared for dialogue with those outside of it, or worse, will end with you radicalizing because you'll grow up with your standing never contested.

This is also going the other way. If you'll remove yourself from discourse, you will willfully marginalize yourself. How can local population know that LGBT people are living among them and are their friends/relatives/normal folk, if those people will lock themselves up in their safe spaces?

My favorite example when it comes to LGBT is polish activist turned politician, [Robert Biedroń](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Biedro%C5%84), who has spent life being vocal and visible activist for LGBT rights - extremely courageous feat in mostly catholic and conservatist Poland. The culmination of his work was gaining enough popular support to become mayor in 100k large city.

If this guy ran in my city, he'll get my vote. Even if I disagree with 90% of what he says because politically he always aligns himself with socialists and I'm moderate, I believe that what he does for making our society less bigoted is worth every support.

Now ask yourself, how many such Biedrońs will not come to be because they'll close themselves in their small worlds in fear of their feelings being hurt by some bigots?
