Engaging in identity politics opens up pandora's box :).

Men have a more difficult time obtaining social, emotional and physical intimacy with other people (in both romantic and platonic contexts). For the purely romantic context, there is a huge disparity in the required effort to obtain intimacy in a romantic relationship.

Women can obtain intimacy and have a very successful romantic life without making any advances at all. A man will have a very unsuccessful romantic life if he never makes any advances.

Society fails men on the social/physical/emotional intimacy front.

These are natural, primal needs have huge consequences on happiness. This lack of intimacy naturally causes men to seek intimacy in sometimes inappropriate contexts and situations.

Since a large cause of the behavior is the failing of society, it may be prudent to give higher leniency to men for these situations. The intimacy gap should at least be acknowledged whenever identity politics are brought up in these situations.

Concerning your point about graphic designers, I recommend that people watch this talk about a designer and programmer working on a Flutter project -- https://youtu.be/BJCqRpvvTrM

One last comment about Dart. If you want to see the big benefit of Dart yourself, just go start up the sample Flutter app, modify it and do a (stateful) hot reload. Or introduce an error on purpose, and see how you can fix the error and then continue on from the same place in less than a second. The normal response I've seen from people who try this is to exclaim that this "is a game changer".

[disclaimer: I liked Flutter so much I recently joined that project]
Decent read. I bought this game on the switch as soon it was release, and stopped playing probably 60 minutes into it because the difficulty really did my it less fun. I'll definitely play again once the patch comes out.

Overall the game has an amazing and original design, and I hope the patch improves sales.
This is C++ we're talking about. There's roughly 28 people in the world who understand it completely.
My thought was actually that the editor had reordered intermediate material in order to make things look worse than the author did :-D
The tradeoffs between Elm and Reason/Fable are that the former is Pure and the latter have imperative escape hatches. There are benefits to both. Elm has a neat time travelling debugger built in and enforces semantic versioning via their package manager. Reason and Fable have much tighter integration with the javascript ecosystem. This tends to lead to differences in community package philosophy with Elm mostly maintaining its own package repo (own vdom system, own date lib, etc) with the occasional ports for interacting with popular javascript libs while the more nascent Reason/Fable communities tend to write interface definitions and call the JS directly (e.g. they use React for vdom).

I group Reason (Ocaml/Bucklescript) and Fable (F#) together because F# is OCaml's sibling language on .Net. They're very similar. The two projects have similar philosophies, specifically to bring their ML variant to the javascript ecosystem in a module-by-module mixed-language fashion instead of having the language be its own island in the browser. Neither has a particularly large community but the Reason guys have been doing a better marketing push this month, at least from my perspective.

>I don't care that you don't care for definitions. Words have meaning, whether you care about them or not.

Words literally have definitions that change over time, in context, from different groups of people, in different regions, and literally sometimes don't literally mean what is literally written in a dictionary. Pointing to a dictionary and saying "This is what this word means" is completely ignoring how communication works unless you're trying to get two people to agree upon a definition of a word.

The only good a dictionary is for is saying "This is the definition of the word I am using." Neat. I'll stick with the way everyone around me uses the word, dictionary be damned.

>Telling me "I do this as a hobby" and "I am this" are two completely different statements.

The implications of the statement matters.

>It's the equivalent of saying "I handle financial transactions for a multi-billion dollar company." when you're a cashier at McDonalds.
Another problem with going fully nuclear: society is going to be highly dependent on basically a hand full of reactors so it's not that easy to shut them down in case unexpected defects are found or if they simply get too old without newer ones being built in time. We see this e.g. in France which largely runs on nuclear power: they still operate some old reactors with serious known issues. There also were some winters in the recent years where their grid was close to a blackout because a substantial part of the nuclear plants where in maintenance mode and electrical heating is widely used. It is only possible to prevent this because neighboring countries like Germany are able to reliably produce a lot of excess electricity (still too much coal unfortunately, thanks Merkel :() which they can import.
But a template is not "regular old HTML". HTML is a standard for declaring marked up text. What Vue and similar libraries do is make adhoc variants of HTML (all different) with extra looping constructs and if/then constructs and so on. The templates also require embedding snippets of JavaScript code in them -- code which standard JavaScript/TypeScript IDE tools don't know about and so can't refactor, validate, or navigate.

These templates may look declarative because the look HTML-ish but they are not -- because of the embedded code that can call arbitrary functions in your application. The result is hard to debug and reason about. Where do you put a breakpoint in such a template? How do you abstract part of a template into a function? How do you add logging to such templates? How do you know what object is having its data accessed for templating languages like with Angular that do complex contextual lookups behind the scenes? How do you get code coverage reports? How do you get code completion? How do you get precise error reports? And so on. For more on why templates are a bad idea, see: https://blog.dantup.com/2014/08/you-have-ruined-html/

That is why I feel these sorts of template-based approaches will eventually be discarded as obsolete for writing single page applications as web programming continues to progress (in favor of generating UIs directly from code). HTML-ish templates feel familiar to people with experience building progressively enhanced web apps by sprinkling a bit of CSS and JavaScript on top of HTML generated from a server -- but for single-page apps that spend most of their time converting JSON from a server into HTML (or just doing stand-alone activities), a templating HTML-first approach make little sense. You just don't need extra templating machinery that you need to learn and maintain and that just gets in the way of development.

By contrast, consider the HyperScript API for generating HTML from JavaScript/TypeScript (as used in Mithril, Maquette, and optionally in Inferno and some other vdom libraries).

For example:

h("div",
h("ul",
h("li", "one"),
h("li", "two"),
h("li", "three"),
someExtraListItems(),
otherItems.map((item) => h("li", item.name))
),
isListEditable ?
h("button", { onclick: editList }, "Edit extra list items") :
[]
)

If you use the HyperScript approach (especially with Tachyons.css or similar), you are just writing JavaScript/TypeScript/whatever and can leverage all of the language's features. JavaScript-first for modern SPAs!

Uber Ex-CEO Travis Kalanick Knew of Stolen Google Files
I asked a friend who said that in the decades he has practiced psychiatry not only did he never have a patient with this diagnosis, but he also never met a colleague who did, so his personal opinion is that this is more of something meant for Hollywood scripts or attention grabbing articles than something that actually exists in the way it is portrayed.
Certainly if you live in a city, money is everything. Without it, you are homeless and wondering where you'll sleep next or what you'll eat. Where to shower, how you'll find work, get your hair cut, and so on. All of these things require money to obtain, more or less.

The countryside might be a different story, if you're willing to work wherever you can find it. Room and board on a farm perhaps; that costs nothing if you are willing to work. Tent in a forest; this costs nothing, as anyone can scrape together a tent and sleeping bag. Cities have no room for these things.

A bare minimum amount of money can be everything. Once you can feed and house yourself, why not focus on life and making the best of it? I think money is everything _until_ you can sustain the bare minimum. After that... if you still think money is everything, you have lost sight of the rest of your life. That or you have kids.
> claim of sexual harassment is as equally damaging now as being called a communist was in the 50's

I dispute this very much. For example, you have people like Chris Brown that can turn their girlfriend into a human punching bag... and nothing happens to them. They just say that they are sorry, and keep in making money hand over fist (and even get women on Twitter saying things like "he can punch me any day").

It is documented that he was beating the crap out her, and he has suffered no ill consequences, or lack of popularity. I'm pretty sure that this does not match up with being called a communist in 1950's America.

> No, I don't. But do you think it's reasonable to crucify him before any investigation happens?

He has come out with a statement basically admitting to it after completely denying it.
I legit worry about this. Not sure why.
At a previous company, I worked with someone in a recent highly-public sexism scandal (if I said who or where, I would no longer be a genericpseudo).

I knew that the person was extremely brash and was told that they indulged in "locker-room talk", though I didn't personally observe any harassing behavior. I didn't speak up about what I heard. I wish I had. I wonder, and worry, if anything as bad as what happened at their next company happened at the company I worked at. I'm really uncomfortable with the odds that it did.

We have to stop this madness of thinking that "John READS my diary" means the same thing as "The function fread() READS nitems objects". Those don't mean the same thing except in a metaphorical sense. It's insane.

Marketing wise it feels like you are aiming at the wrong target. By all means blog about the technical side of things but don't expect it to motivate much movement for your game. You need to find and engage with the people who actually want your game but are unaware of it rather than want to hear about your experiences with React Native. The latter is more about promoting yourself.
Having worked in the industry, I've seen UltraHD with a proper setup. (with the 192 channel sound)

for documentaries and sports, yeah, its brilliant.

But for "film"? it sucks.

why?

Because it looks like a play, but with bad acting. Everything that we have learnt, subconsciously, about film, is based on 24 FPS. Any action of any narrative substance in a modern film is linked to a slowmo. This relies on 24FPS. Because things are smooth, we register it as different.

No, I thought your point about Canada being similar to the US was reasonable, but I still see the major facts as being:

1. China, ruled by the Chinese, has been incredibly uninterested in expansion compared to pretty much anywhere else in the world.

2. In fact, they have a many-centuries-long tradition of applying social stigma to military careers.

3. They have been especially uninterested in attacking regions that are not already highly Sinicized.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sino-Korean_relatio... doesn't really suggest that the Chinese have been interested in invading Korea at any time in the last 1500 years. Communist China specifically wanted North Korea to be independent as a buffer state between itself and the US.
He can take off the scarlett letter when he follows through on his promises of reform. Until then, I'm optimistic that his apology is sincere, but I won't trust him.

The industry at large and Apple in particular is coming at them from the other direction preferring premium, furthering ad blockers and offering better privacy defaults (iOS 11). Elon Musk has gone so far as to allude that Google is the only AI company that worries him[1].

And so it goes. Coupled with AI and the amount of data they are able to feed into the AI engines, I am guessing this won't regress their ad targeting.

They have also managed to supplant it with other avenues. Google Travel, Google Calendar and other apps have explicit permission to read your email, Google serves email images off their own servers which gives them a tracking beacon and behavioural data across cohorts. All this adds a level of indirection but still gives them access to behavioural data and user intent.

Yes, the chronology of that analogy is wrong, which is why I said that claim would be slightly more ridiculous. But the agency part of it is correct. The Manchus had no more interest in Chinese opinions of what they should and shouldn't attack than the Germans had in French opinions.

This is an example of why I flatly refused to install an IM client at a former employer who wanted IT staff connected and instantly available. (The issue was laid to rest in a conference call when a co-worker said "The nice thing about Dennis is that if he's at his desk, he answers the phone on the first ring. If he's not at his desk, you won't get hin in IM, either!" Bless him. He got it.)

The sort of stuff I did was mostly not user facing, since I was admin for the nix boxes, and not usually supporting Windows on the desktop. The things I did tended to require peace, quiet, and extended concentration to make sure I understood the problem and had created a working solution that wouldn't blow up in someone's face.

The underlying problem is that computers are good at multi-tasking, and humans aren't. When a computer is handling multiple concurrent tasks, and an interrupt comes in, it must save its place in what it's doing at the moment, handle the interrupt, then go back to the saved place and continue where it left off. It's stack processing, computers are designed to do it well, and are generally fast enough that the user thinks the computer is only doing the task she's working on. The overhead isn't apparent.

Humans aren't good at stack processing. I've seen papers from years back indicating the average developer can handle 5-7 parallel tracks at a time, and beyond that, things get lost. Stuff getting lost because the developer was trying to keep track of too many things were highly fertile sources of bugs.

And humans aren't anywhere near as fast as computers. Conceptually, you do the same thing as a computer - you are working on a task and get interrupted. You must save your place in what you're doing, handle the interruption, and resume where you left off. There is significant overhead there, and if you get interrupted enough, you spend most of your time stack processing instead of actually working on tasks. You get the equivalent of old time mainframe "death by thrashing", where the mainframe was spending more time context switching than actually doing work.

Some of us are better at multi-tasking than others, but I think all of us over-estimate how good we actually are. I've advised folks elsewhere to try an experiment - work on one task at a time, and continue till it's completed, instead of juggling multiple concurrent tasks. I'm willing to bet the amount of work you actually get done will jump.

What confuses me is why the shop in the article thought that sort of real time communication was a good idea in the first place.

>Dennis
Without knowing the specifics of your software I can't really tell if the problem was with Visual Studio or the process itself. I do believe you can have a shitty work environment whatever you use, and that some tools aren't good for every job (and that includes Visual Studio).

> Text files aren't "stone age"

The issue is whether your build system provides you with an UI that enables you to be productive (e.g. Visual Studio), or if it forces you to manually edit some configuration files using some arbitrary syntax that doesn't seem to display any sort of internal logic (e.g. CMake). In this respect, being forced to deal with text files is stone age, just like debugging a C++ program with stock GDB.

In the end, it's a matter of preference. Do you want an IDE so that you can focus on programming, or do you want to set up and maintain a string of loosely coupled tools that, when the stars align, do what you want to.. kind of.

To be fair to the person you're responding to, do you think people looking for copypasta are going to check the fine print?

There are people who do, but go too far and you get into trouble. For historical reasons, people don't separate the state from their own identity as much as people do in other countries. It really is different. Even Putin haters will find "good" things in him, oh but he's defending Russia, etc.

I am much worse off than my parents

OK, let's assume you're 30 and your parents were ~30 when they had you. That means your parents spent their 15-30's during the 1970's. What were the 1970's like in the US (yes, I'm assuming you're American)?

Absolute crap.

Post-Vietnam with everyone wondering whether or not the US was done as a superpower. A humiliating withdrawal from a war that killed 50,000 Americans. Stagflation, with inflation in the teens and unemployment 3x what it is today. Want to buy a house? Sign on the dotted line for a 17% mortgage. Oil embargoes/energy crisis and line ups for gasoline. "General Malaise". Serious crime problems in cities and a decaying inner city. Race riots in recent memory. Watergate scandal and a disgraced President who relinquishes office.

I think it's silly to think our parents had it better.

> A good faith investigation by a journalist with six sources, three on the record, could certainly be viewed as due process.

But @sillysaurus3 basically said that there is no amount of evidence that could satisfy "reasonable doubt" with this statement:

> When it involves rich or powerful people, the ability to get many she-said's becomes easier.

This statement basically says that gathering multiple claims and multiple accounts/allegations cannot be proof against a rich or powerful person because of some inherent propensity of women to come out of the woodwork to lodge harassment/assault claims against rich/powerful/famous people. So once you are rich and powerful you immediately win all he-said/she-said situations because people have to give you the "benefit of the doubt." (not that I agree with this statement)
