I'd say it all comes down to volume. If there's enough money in a currency or in fact any kind of asset it's much less volatile because it's much harder for single players with big pockets to move the needle in either direction.

This isn't really a design issue though (or one specific to cryptocurrencies) but one of making the asset attractive enough in the long term.

Even then larger up and down movements are still possible, for example as seen when George Soros decided to 'break' the Bank of England in 1992.

Nah, it's true. Here's dumb example, where the compiler errors totally miss make_unique:

#include <memory>
#define u8 }{
struct Foo {
char const *foo() {
char const *r = u8"foo";
std::make_unique<int>(1);
return r;
}
};

Maybe now you can argue it won't happen in practice, and my intuition is you'd still be wrong for large projects, but I don't have the time to try to come with a more realistic example. Hopefully this is enough to get the point across though. The syntax has changed, and the compiler can be only so smart trying to decipher it efficiently.
Until starting my own company earlier this year, I worked in the translation industry.

We had some XLIFF-friendly clients who, on the whole, had been used to translating and localising their data for a long time and were productive and well-organised.

The remainder of our clients weren't; a mixture of spreadsheets, CSVs, home-baked XML/JSON/YAML were most common. We could accommodate these providing the format was documented and we had technically competent translators for that language with the correct industry-specific knowledge.

Finally, some clients insisted on sending us PDFs, marketing materials (hopefully in PSD files but sometimes in PNG or TIFF). They couldn't understand why we had to go to great lengths to find translators who could cope and why sometimes the results weren't pixel-perfect. Of course, supplying the source materials to us to pass on to translators was out of the question.

I have a hard time choosing what's the best thing to come out of the internet: WikiPedia or the Khan Academy.

If you're so intent on smearing WikiPedia it would probably help you if you studied it for a bit before spouting off a bunch of nonsense in this thread. I get it: you don't like WikiPedia because they ask you for a donation. Note that you're under no obligation whatsoever to donate and that the content is yours for the taking.

I fear the current 'iterations' might not last long because of the video aspect. I have been following two other courses from Berkeley: data8.org and datastructur.es. However, because of a certain directive (and I don't fault university for it) the video lectures are no longer public. Sad.

Getsploit v0.2: Exploit search and download tool
Taking a serious engineering team as example (ie one doing something innovative rather than cutting variants of the same code all the time) the leader has to be an engineer.

Not necessarily the best in the team but they have to get the mechanics and prognosis of technical decisions in order to manage risk, know where or who the problems are, make trade offs, etc.

I've often seen the non technical leader adopt a technical right hand who defacto does the leading whilst the alleged leader reports up, administrates and generally takes credit.

Further like someone else said, leading and managing are like chalk and cheese (superfluously similar). A project manager may happily be non technical because there job is mostly triage, comms and tracking.

I also think it's quite troublesome how this very real issue, IT security, is being misused to stage yet another "War on something" even if there isn't anything concrete to wage a war on. If there's such a thing as the MIC, it seems to have found a new business field with "cyber".
IT security works on cooperation, even more so on international cooperation. It does not work when international players are constantly trying to shaft each other over by collecting 0-days, like this is some kind of war which has to be won by pummeling the opposition into submission with "cyber weapons".

In that regard agencies like the NSA, and their foreign equivalents, are doing everybody a giant disservice by making the problem worse, not better.

And in 2013 the administration began to provide arms to what the CIA judged to be “relatively moderate” anti-Assad groups—meaning they incorporated various degrees of Islamic extremism.

It's not really a question of where the hops are located. There'll be a couple of them in Europe and a couple in NA. Each will introduce a bit of latency.

Fraudulent doesn't mean there is no product. It means that the founders are well aware that the token is useless but sold it to the general public anyway, under some sort of pretense of an investment while at the same time it is clearly not a security.

I can not speak for every jurisdiction of the world, but I believe any lawyer would advise against marketing non-securities as investment if you want to stay out of jail.

Civic specifically has absolutely no use for a token. The service they offer would look completely identical without the token. I believe the official explanation why they did anyway it was to "harness the enthusiasm of the community" or something like it.

Since the Civic token is completely dysfunctional without Civic the company providing the underlying service, it is also unnecessarily expensive and complicated to use a blockchain for storage. That they have a procedure where they can restore your keys should you lose them should be enough to raise questions.

While the public blockchain is an innovation that I believe will have important use cases going forward, it is absolutely clear to me that this is a golddigger era for scams, and the shift from altcoins to tokens have lowered the signal-to-noise ratio even further. I have yet to see an ICO that was not useless, bordering on fraudulent (which is a word that should not get used too lightly), so I would be genuinely curious to see one that is not.

That survey is unrepresentative for scripting, since it's a survey of all Clojure applications. Scripting tends to be one-off, custom high level logic. I'm sure any Clojure user will tell you that short programs start fast enough for scripting - and for development, you are live-reloading in the REPL with 0 startup time.

About deployment and distribution, I think the JVM story is much better than the competition (Python, Node, etc) - you can just package everything in a single .jar and you need only this along with the JVM.

Embedded systems, like I wrote above, are hardly restricted to this kind of tiny chip. Embedded systems these days are frequently powerful enough to run Clojure. There's a big market for developing embedded solutions that value memory-safety, fast turnaround times and on-devices development ability along with access to JVM libs.

To summarize, I still disagree that all these broad sectors would be weak for Clojure (like you argued in your original post). There are be smaller niches inside these sectors that Clojure is not well suited to (like operating systems, or low-powered embedded, or frequently executed end-user scripts that need sub-second startup times, or code inside operating system kernels) but this hardly excludes Clojure for all your listed broad application areas.

One can't just look at revenue, debt and Moody's rating of guitar makers and dealers and proclaim the guitar, the most popular instrument today by a huge margin, is dying.

But the lack of prominence of the guitar in the top charts and the way social pop culture influences people today does have a significant impact in new guitar purchases. When I was a kid learning the guitar, dad's old Fender wouldn't do. I HAD to have a Satriani-style Ibanez, my guitar hero at the time. I have a friend that, throughout the years, has invested over $100K getting himself each and every one of his heroes guitars over and over. As guitars are not as prominent in mainstream music anymore guitar sales dwindle.

Add to that a huge "installed base" of used guitars, a good that is unparalleled in durability, and you have a very stale market for new guitars that will generate a gap for years to come.
Longitudinal data would be informative. I strongly suspect people spent less time alone in the past.
(Note: The X-axis is age.)

My theories:

* Multitude of choices given to us by technology have led to fewer things we pay attention to in common with our friends and neighbors. Thus, fewer shared loci of interaction. Career specialization is another key contributing factor.

* More recently, dopamine rush generated by endless new contents tailored to our preferences has made real-world interactions and activities dull by comparison. More people choose to spend time alone with that rush. In the long run, it might result in weaker social ties and less healthy psychology for some/many people.

Research has shown that strong social ties are important for mental and even physical health.

How do we design technologies and social institutions to help connect people in the real world and alleviate the problems?

Totally agree, I find nearly no guitar solos that add anything to the song. A few exceptions I can think of are Hendrix, Pink Floyd, and Maudlin of the Well.
>Sorry, but my 17 year old son was so inspired by Mayer about 5 years ago that he invested a LOT of time learning how to play guitar and sing like him, and other artists with similar styles.

I'm sure we can find kids into Foxtrot too, but I don't think we'll see a Foxtrot revival.

Emulating Clapton, or Hendrix, or Page, etc was a mass phenomenon, which is what the "bunch" alludes to.

The last to inspire anything of that kind in a mass way would be someone like Jack White, and even that is was more subdued and fragmented that what it used to be.

I've seen the opposite. A limit to the number of car parks in a new development. Look up "Hammarby Sjöstad" south of Stockholm.
Unfortunately not, my opinion is simply based on my personal experience and on what I've been learning along the way. I find promises really handy for data processing pipelines (grab some data and perform some transformations over it to get it in the form you need), regardless of wether any of the steps is async or not. I still find async/await really useful and mix it with promises if I need it, but I prefer to keep my code as functional as I can. Besides, I don't really like how JavaScript handles exceptions and would rather staying away from try/catch if possible
The second part ("less technical stuff") specifically notes that they used Steam's private branches to beta-test the localisation and that the supported languages are Italian, Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Brazilian Portuguese.

One point that wasn't noted is that division is anticommutative of the multiplicative variety. It always intrigued me as to why commutativity is seen as being applicable to all operators and functions that provide the necessary property, but seemingly only applies to the prefix arithmetic inverse for the anticommutative variety.
There are dozens of highly-functioning economies in the world that barely use English at all. I just got back from a holiday in France, which has its own fighter jets, nuclear weapons and aircraft carriers, yet only speaks English in jobs that are directly related to foreign communications. A random person you meet on the street will be very unlikely to understand you if you speak English to them.

It's a pipe dream to expect an average French person to enjoy art in its native language, and as a businessperson you will limit you market by doing this.

Granted, the English-speaking world is currently the world leader in technological capability and economic power, but it's quite myopic to assume that this makes everyone else irrelevant.

>Most people who attempt suicide and survive say they regret it.

And later on they may regret failing their attempts.

>But in practice it seems like suicidal people are not making a perfectly informed decision

Many people don't make perfectly informed decisions about a variety of things, yet we allow them to exercise their freedom to do so.

>And suicide doesn't just affect that person, it affects everyone around them too you know.

That's a stupidly selfish and ignorant argument of everyone around the person. "You gotta keep on living because otherwise I feel sad." Not even considering that the mourning of a death of a friend is nothing compared to the suffering of a full-blown suicidal depression. If someone had terminal cancer and was suffering horrible pain every day, you wouldn't tell them to go on because them dying "affects everyone around them too you know".

>Telling suicidal people to stay quiet and not get help they need, or even encouraging them to do it.

I did neither of those. I clearly stated "Get help". I clearly stated to seek out dialogue, but not publicly over the internet. I never encouraged anyone to kill themselves, I just want to protect the liberty of anyone to do it.

All in all, you completely misunderstood me.
Rigtheo, so now we need to compare to other cultures and overlay the results with mental health issues, self-reported happiness, income, GDP, obesity, and all the other interesting metrics.

We already know the results though: people who have strong family ties and closer and enduring friendships and sense of community live longer healthier lives than their lonely counterparts and are more productive at work and in their own pursuits.

On the up side: people who are more separate, isolated, lonely, without being to far in to the pathological extremes, tend to buy more things, which is good for The Economy.
Oops. What a mess of features.

>Diplo and TSwift are as legit as SRV and Dylan. Rock on.

First, if they are, then that's part of the focus of the article. That guitar and guitar rock is waning -- and surely Diplo and TSwift are not bringing it back.

Second, no Diplo and TSwift are not as legit as SRV and Dylan. Not because they are different genres, but because they are inferior artistically (regardless of genre).

They might be equally entertaining or whatever, in a "it's a free country and I can listen to whatever I like", but artistically they're not even close (and SRV is not in the same league for cultural impact as Dylan anyway).

It's not about the past. There are contemporary electronic, edm, r&b, hip hop etc artists that are on par with SRV and Dylan on creative merits, but TSwift and Diplo are not them -- like the Monkeys weren't as good as The Beatles, and Frankie Avalon was no Elvis.
> Even if you're looking up strings based on IDs in another file (which is a good pattern) […] putting printf format strings also as localized data.

AFAIK localising "formatting literals" is the more normal method, it avoids redundancies as you don't need two different systems (ids and format strings) and provide more flexibility with respect to e.g. cardinalities. Most ID-based systems bundle formatting support as well, if you're using an ID-based system you basically shouldn't call the language's string formatting functions.

Furthermore translating literal sections individually (without formatting context) will often yield an incorrect result as the entire phrase needs to be shuffled around, or words need to be inflected, or a literal translation suitable for "standalone" expressions does not work for the entire phrase.

More granular is generally worse for translations.
I find AWS security "primers" are usually quite brief - and necessarily so, because otherwise they wouldn't be a "primer". But that brevity leads to a common set of rules which, in the absence of a full explanation, lose something.

For example, just every AWS environment I look at, someone knew that should create an IAM account, and never use the root account. Which is why there is a root account that's never used, and one IAM account with "Administrator" permission that everyone shares.

If you ever propose we review it, someone will point me at an AWS security guide and say "it's fine, we're not using the root".
