>As a CEO, I see each day the direct contributions that talented employees from around the world bring to our company, our customers and to the broader economy. We care deeply about the DREAMers who work at Microsoft and fully support them. We will always stand for diversity and economic opportunity for everyone.

Diversity doesn't require illegal immigration, nor are the children of illegal immigrants particularly beneficial to their host country -- if you have any faith in our system (that should be designed to select for the best and brightest), you'd have to admit that the immigrants admitted by a real merit-based immigration system would be superior to immigrants admitted more or less at random. The only traits that illegal immigration selects for are desperation and a willingness to break laws and live on the fringes of society.

Not that I believe Satya Nadella is sincere in any case, this is just evidence of the growing politicization of large tech companies (as the anti-trust suits loom) -- large corporations don't support liberal causes out of genuine concern (corporations are by default, sociopathic) -- they're trying to do political astroturfing: the goal is to prolong the continued existence of their monopolies. If the issue of concentration of power in the tech giants were to be handled solely (and dispassionately) by the appropriate financial regulatory bodies, it would be over very quickly. The large tech giants plan to avoid that by making their existence an ongoing issue in the cultural cold war, split the popular opinion down the middle, and make the issue too political to ever be resolved.
> If you didn't know it already, think tanks are a euphemism for propaganda machine.

Surely the proper response would be to pay less attention to think tanks / propaganda machines. Google's action here may even be morally neutral; while it is unfortunate that this fellow and his coworkers lost their jobs, (our part of) the world has been given a timely reminder of the true nature of think tanks.

"Pagers" (if you mean that literally) aren't used anymore. The difference between pagers and cell phones is that pagers work practically everywhere and cell phones as you know are spotty.

That said I think it depends on the crisis and the community size. Not everyone is even watching the news during the day I remember I heard about 911 as a result of someone making a comment on a group that I followed that was almost quite accidental.

Part of the problem with any of this is that disasters aren't that frequent so not much thought is given to a host of 'what if's'.

One practical effect I've seen with this in Scala is that IDE users seem to be more averse to typeclasses and other implicit heavy stuff. These things can't be autoimported so you have to do it manually. People who don't use IDEs are used to importing things by hand anyways
Sounds like a case of survivors bias. Cars totaled in accidents likely bring down the average.

I don't think that's apples-to-apples -- you have to go out of your way to always use a supercharger, so you'd have to account for the value of the time lost in traveling to a supercharger station compared to doing all the same journeys and using nearby gas stations. (Refueling at a supercharger is slower too, so that's extra fillup time.)

Alternatively you could use the electricity cost of recharging it at home, plus the cost of the occasional missed journeys that are out of range from not always being full. (Say, book their cost at what you'd pay for an Uber for those legs.)

(I don't know if charging a Tesla at home overnight is enough to get to 100% -- anyone know?)
I think everybody replying to my original comment ("math, not science") misunderstood what I meant. It's my fault, I was ambiguous.

The person I replied to said "this is how science works". I replied "math, not science", meaning in this case, it was an example of how math works (self-correcting through review). But that's also how science works.

I didn't mean to imply there were huge differences in the ontology of math and science, as practiced, although I found the subsequent discussion of the differences in their pursuits stimulating.

I see less difference in math and science than most, probably due to the influence of "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences" iin which Wigner, one of the biggest players in quantum mechanics, points out that mathematical models/theories of physical systems often have unexpected extrapolative predictive ability, suggesting some relationship between math and physics

> I also like that the focus on data-flow makes it clear you can do FP in any language.

Challenge to anyone who cares:

Do FP using Microsoft BASIC, circa 1980 or thereabouts (heck, if you want, use any BASIC from that era).

I'm pretty sure FP would be easier to demonstrate using Logo from that period than using BASIC.

IIRC no high voltage car batteries are actually charged/discharged 0-100%, even if it reads so from the user's perspective. This is due to significantly increased wear on the batteries when fully charged/discharged, and why a cellphone battery only lasts a few years.

The batteries need to be significantly over-provisioned to extend their lifespan. A Prius, for example, will keep the battery's SOC between 40-80%, and is one of the most reliable hybrids out there.

The same is true for EVs, so charging it till it reads 100% does not mean the battery is at capacity. The same is true when it reads empty.
Another anecdote, I paid for DSL to be brought to my area. A neighbor chipped in and bought an extra mile to be upgraded. It was costly but worth it. I pretty much considered it a cost of having my house where it is.

You can mitigate callback hell using classes, which are far quicker than promises and easier for humans to parse than callback chains.
It seems weird, though, that an operation like ticketmaster wouldn't work to get rid of this middleman over time, by assuming themselves the risk they had been paying (indirectly) scalpers to assume. Maybe it's that artists also like to appear virtuous by keeping nominal prices low, even if in practice everyone attending the concert pays substantially more.

Not an expert and I didn't downvote but from my examination of laptop batteries, they appear to be composed of LIon cells of a standard size, something like 3V cells. Phone batteries OTOH seem to be pretty custom designs to fit a specific phone or range of phones. For e.g. https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/156928/repla...

It is more about when the car is costing you enough per year to fix that paying for a new one would be cheaper overall.

Also perceived safety/ convenience, a car might be good for another 100k km but appear unreliable enough that it might break down at any time.
Actually, if you want to internationalize for the thousands separator, spaces are likely pretty safe as they are preferred by numerous standards bodies, as well as AMA.[1] That also neatly sidesteps any comma/period confusion for the decimal in large enough numbers, since whichever you see, if there's space grouping thousands, it's that one.

Rural America votes red, which got them this kind of policy for broadband:
https://www.theverge.com/2017/3/29/15106850/fcc-lifeline-pro...

Instead of the kind of policy they had with telephones, with the Universal Service Fund, and the like, to subsidize the massively higher deployment cost. It's not just in the middle of nowhere, the run length are vastly longer. Of course it's going to cost more money. Electrical lines, water and sewer do too.

Looks like one of the sushi making robots costs somewhere around ~$15,000. Would be great if there was one available for the prosumer market at a lower price.
I certainly appreciate the comments, everyone. I intended for the article to be an introduction to Dijkstra's algorithm with the tone being less technical and more casual with the hopes of spurring in the budding developer further research into the algorithm and graph theory in general.

Like every post/article, this has been an exercise in finding the appropriate tone, subject, depth of content, etc. I have taken everyone's comments into consideration so far; they'll motivate me to revise my approach to writing, both in this article and subsequent articles.

Thanks again for the read :D And your time in commenting!
Your still missing the point. It's not that it was possible to do so. It's that you could quickly write web services idomatically that did so by default. Your example shows a simple hello world and doesn't speak to the point being made.
I am sure you can get a more relevant example going in Scotty, but it appears that it didn't show up until 2012.

I don't think we can necessarily assume that an arranged marriage is positive-to-neutral for both members of the couple, however. Parents may act in their own best interests or those of other members of the family, even if they tell themselves they are putting their child's interests first. Practices like dowries, and issues of gender inequality and the socio-economic status of families and clans, further cloud the issue.

Which is not to say that leaving it up to the kids themselves is always successful...
She's just summarizing the work of Cal Newport, who used it to get through an MIT PhD in Computer Science while writing a couple of books and managed to get an assistant professorship at a major university shortly after graduating. She mentioned this in her article.

If you look at the daily lives of some of the greatest scientists and creatives in history, you'll find that a surprising number of them have had similarly compressed schedules. Newport's blog discusses many of them.

Finally:

"They're originally from the wetlands of Brazil, where it's flooded several times a week. When that happens, they have to pull their entire colonies out from underground, which is where they live, and they have to float around and survive in this fashion. They've been really forced to rely on each other in a way that's far deeper from other ants."

This is something I've been wondering, "How did they learn to do this?" and it turns out they evolved to do it.
That hasn't been true for a very long time. Tesla uses their own chemistry[1] and has put in extensive work improving it. One of the higher-profile changes was that they use 1-2% silicon (Musk mentioned this in a stockholder call), which panasonic still hasn't rolled out to the rest of their batteries.

I agree. Soros and the Koch bros are two sides of the same coin. They both advocate pro-globalization policies, Soros the social aspects, and Koch the economic aspects. It's clear that globalism has massively benefitted the ultra-wealthy at the expense of the lower and middle class, and one way they justify the madness is by funding these propaganda organizations.

What bugs me is how often reports from "Think Tanks" and NGOs are uncritically reported as news by the media without disclosing their donors.

My parents have two ISP options and they're on the east coast (like literally, the town has waterfront on the Atlantic and all the BS that goes with it). They are by no means rural. They have two ISP options. One offers 1mb down. The other is Comcast.

6-20mbps with terrible quality would be a godsend for them and everyone else in the area.
I can't help but feel like Google gently encouraged him to promote Go over Node. Or that being told by coworkers (goworkers?) for years-on-end that Go is better than Node has had an effect. Especially considering he talks about green threads like he's not quite sure what he's talking about. At any rate, there are many innovations where the creators weren't fully aware of their impact and eventually come to hate their own designs, so no love lost there.

> I often wonder why Python's gevent didn't become more popular.

Quite honestly, it wasn't very good. It worked magically until the magic ran out. Mysterious breakages caused by stuff deep in gevent interacting badly with other libraries hampered my ability to use it effectively. For instance, you couldn't use it with python-requests directly, you need to use another library that makes requests compatible, unless you roll your own magic, which was often very complicated. And, at least in my experience, gevent stuff tends not to work with Python 3.

Now that asyncio is a thing, I'm glad I never have to debug gevent-related problems anymore.
I don't think any lithium ion battery is ever truly used at 0-100%. True 100% would be just before it explodes, and true 0% would be just before it completely bricks. You get horrible degradation near those areas so they're always avoided. I'm sure consumer electronics push it farther than cars do, though.
Unfortunately, most new luxury-ish cars come with fancy LED headlight units which cost several thousand dollars to replace. It's no longer a bulb replacement, but essentially replacing a computer attached to digitally directed LED arrays with sensors and gyroscopes to assess lighting conditions and leveling.
I never said I wish to punish them regulatorily. I disprove of such tactics in general.

Maintenance and repairs have been a big issue with Teslas, but they are rolling out a new program that might improve. With the launch of the Model 3, it's important that they make service cheaper and significantly more accessible.

http://www.thedrive.com/sheetmetal/10340/tesla-releases-new-...

As far as the Bolt is concerned, it's a nice commuter EV, but not nearly as great as a Tesla for road trips due to the fact that charging is much slower, harder to find, and more expensive.
This. $30K is the size of a not-unreasonable annual bonus for a high-performing profession. This money would be pocketed for debt pay-down or invested into future passive income (e.g. real estate). My employment status would not change - just my tax bill (more income = more taxes).

Rust had almost everything at some point :)

Rust binaries do define a "main", and setting that up is the runtime's job, like C. But you can also make a library that needs no main at all.
For explicit+dynamic+weak, I think ActionScript 3 fits the bill. The language is dynamically typed by default (an un-annotated variable has the dynamic type, “*”), but you can add type annotations, which are used to guide the implicit dynamic type conversions inherited from AS3’s ECMAScript roots. And the type system has some inherent weakness, such as the fact that the “Function” type isn’t generic: it enforces that a value is a function, but doesn’t enforce anything about its parameter types or return type.
The "sticker" capacity on a Tesla is usually ~3% lower than the real capacity (the one in EPA filings), but the car lets you chose any charge level up to the sticker rating. That's the one I'm talking about- I just mean as relevant to an owner.
And your proposed alternative is?
That's interesting, I always assumed parametric polymorphism was a requirement of ad hoc polymorphism. I suppose I'm using a more narrow definition. On the opposite end,

Elm for instance, has parametric polymorphism:

type Parametric a = Parametric a

f : (a -> b) -> Parametric a -> Parametric b

f fn (Parametric a) = Parametric <| fn a

but no support for ad-hoc, like you said, in Haskell:

data Parametric a = Parametric a

f :: Ord a => Parametric a -> Parametric a -> Parametric a

f (Parametric a) (Parametric b) = Parametric (min a b)
I think people get confused because it's widely (and correctly) reported that Tesla uses 18650 cells. The confusion is that people think that's a model number, but it's actually just a size and shape. It's literally 18x65mm and the 0 means it's round. It tells you nothing at all about what's inside the cylinder.
I don't know about data on popularity, but now college football has a playoff system too so they can bounce back from a loss (but probably only one).

Years ago the Redskins always filled- they've just sucked for so long people find better things to do with their Sundays (disclaimer-am a fan from long time back).

The Patriots on the other hand now fill their stadium (I live in the Boston area now). They didn't use to do that.

So it may depend on how well the team is doing.

EDIT: Except for Tennessee. Those fans are crazy.
This is one of their favorite reasons for recruiting people without experience: They're unlikely to say no and more unlikely to be married or have familial commitments.

If anyone is looking for start-up ideas, focus on finding ways to give employees more leverage (collective bargaining, etc).

Because they conflate the two. I've seen it in so many headlines regarding this event. It's not just the one casualty due to the car incident, they then go on and word it such that you'd think two police men died as a direct result of the protests.

It's way worse than a bunch of people walking around espousing racist views. Real-time subtle manipulation of large amounts of individuals is what actually matters. Democracy/society breaks down when you have large-scale brainwashing and suppression of dissenting opinions/views past a certain tipping point. Ironically, I'd argue that's a large component of how the Nazis in Germany rose to power.
