Why? Trip Advisor is actually one of the biggest contributors to scourge the fake reviews! Anyone can't post reviews on Tripadvisor you don't need to be a verified guest.

'“The effects we find in our study are actually not that small. For example, the mean hotel in our sample has thirty negative reviews. We find that a hotel that is located next to an independent hotel owned by a small owner will have six more fake negative Tripadvisor reviews compared to an isolated hotel.”'[1]

The Law of Jante seems similar to the british concept of "don't get ideas above your station" which is the cultural expression of the class system which acts as a block on social mobility.

In the UK, thanks the the billionaire-owned tabloid political agenda, we have:

Ultra-rich (old money, luck, extreme talent/charisma)
Middle class (strivers, value creators, good people)
Working class (tyrannical majority of freeloaders)
Underclass (don't vote, who cares, lazy sub-human thieves)

So in Scandinavia, it looks like this?

Ultra-rich (old money, luck, extreme talent/charisma)
Upper middle class (strivers, value creators, good people)
Middle class (tyrannical majority of freeloaders, pretty bad people)
(not mentioned) - Working class (lazy don't vote, who cares, sub-human thieves?)

As a middle class, socially immobile value creator myself, I feel your pain, but why does your anger seem directed mainly at those below you in the hierarchy? Without getting too Marxist about it, value creation is a function of the entire system, genius and value creation can't happen in isolation. Billionaires drive on roads built by unskilled labourers, hedge fund managers still need their toilets cleaned and computer hardware upgraded. Human underachievement in advanced economies is a tragedy, but there are systemic roadblocks, it's not just moral and cultural degeneracy by a grasping, entitled populist majority.

I had this situation in my career. Someone somewhere in the management chain decided that all computers need a full remote management tool installed behind employees' backs, and our friendly sysadmins didn't have any say in that; their job is to tell us to not have stuff that the remote management scripts identify as unwanted.

In another place that I had to deal with for a while, someone had the bright idea to outsource IT to an external company. This meant all the computers software engineers used were a) locked up as much as they could be, b) alterations to some OS configuration (or hardware) required going through a third party service provider.

I kind of understand the need for locking things up for regular computer users. I guess it also somehow adds up in the sheets to the upper beancounters. I also believe their math is totally bogus, because it doesn't count in the total destruction of productivity it causes for engineers of all kind.

Tried it several months and left unimpressed. While by what the product aspires to be, it could be the IDE for command line, it's far from that. The only difference is essentially autocomplete, which is not intelligent (and probably can't be, nothing along the lines of parsing --help or man pages) and felt clunky when trying to edit part of a command and then try to get another "suggestion".

With zsh's built-in Ctrl+R it's at least possible to reduce list of suggestion and then travel up the history in those suggestions. While the more powerful fzf will give you the list of commands you've run in a selectable dropdown.

Upterm I think could be eliminating entire classes of tools which sometimes are unnecesary complex. Server automation could be part of pre-saved playbooks which are saved to your terminal history and can be easily brought up and run according to rules. Curl arguments could be arranged in a way where they are actually managable. Parsing --help and man pages (which is possible, there is a workable implementation in fish AFAIK). Upterm is in position to take on that functionality, but right now it's not much more than already mentioned hyper, but with custom handled prompt line.

> Uhm... what sort of a response are you expecting that could convince you here?

Well, some sort of reasoning? Like, what do you observe about these friends that leads you to that conclusion?

> How are you so certain that I'm recognizing the evil correctly in the first place? Wouldn't it make a lot more sense to first question that before questioning my assessment of my friends' character?

I'm not sure why there should be a priority between those question?! It's certainly a valid question, but I just accepted your premise in that regard for the sake of the discussion. After all, I am not trying to come to a conclusion about your friends (whom I don't know anyway), but rather I am trying to understand how you reconcile your observation that they are doing something that you would consider evil with the conclusion that they are of "better moral character than [your]self". To me it seems like that would be a contradiction in terms.

I guess I could also just ask what you mean by "good moral character", that this does not cause a contradiction?

> How high of a bar is "sure" for you? I'm not even "sure" I understand all of my own parents' motivations in life well, let alone my friends'. The way you phrase your question I don't get the impression I could meet that bar realistically about anyone.

I guess I meant something along the lines of "reasonably sure". But also, this wasn't so much a question about your friends, but a question about you: How do you come to the conclusion that they are of "better moral character"? What about those friends makes you think that? And have you considered whether your conclusion isn't more based on what they claim to be, rather than on what you have actually observed them to be?

> I can say I'm "sure" enough that I'm considering the possibility of them getting brainwashed as significantly more likely than them having poor moral character.

I guess that goes back to the question of what your definition of "moral character" is, but wouldn't brainwashing impair moral character?

> Yes, the problem with lack of clarity is more often than not the fault of the API designer, not the language.

Well, a language that enables unreadable cleverness can be said to be at fault. This is why languages, like Kotlin, that follow the Java philosophy, intentionally try to avoid introducing primitive constructs (regardless of whether you believe they are "intrinsically" "simple") that give rise to such cleverness, even at the cost of what others may call expressiveness. Valuing expressiveness over readability (which I here define to be no-cleverness) or vice versa is ultimately a matter of personal preference, but it is a value judgment that's made by the language, and languages that differ in the priorities of their values are very different from one another. Just as the difference between a pure language that guarantees (for the most part) immutability vs. a language that doesn't (even though no one is stopping library designers from writing only pure functions) is big, so is the difference between a language that guarantees (for the most part) readability vs. one that doesn't.

I suppose that the title uses "French scientists" because it sounds exotic.

However this is well known, the adjuvant is nowaday the most active part of a vaccine. It is by carefully crafting the adjuvant that a company could make its products sligtly better than those of their competition.

I cite [0]:

'The inflammatory or danger-signal model of adjuvant action implies that increased vaccine reactogenicity is the inevitable price for improved immunogenicity. Hence, adjuvant reactogenicity may be avoidable only if it is possible to separate inflammation from adjuvant action. The biggest remaining challenge in the adjuvant field is to decipher the potential relationship between adjuvants and rare vaccine adverse reactions such as narcolepsy, macrophagic myofasciitis or Alzheimer’s disease. While existing adjuvants based on aluminum salts have a strong safety record, there is an ongoing need for new adjuvants and for more intensive research into adjuvants and their effects.'

Racket really has a chance of being the Python of functional(ish) languages. The ability of the community to produce a great ecosystem is all right there baked in. http://jeapostrophe.github.io/2013-07-22-123list-post.html

I also think the documentation is all in one place. The library Scribble makes it simple for everyone to document your macro/library simply and uniformly. I really have high hopes for Racket over the next 5 years.

Twitter is the medium about what's happening RIGHT NOW. In before you would open the TV or the radio to get information about what's happening right now but these days many people would look at Titter to get information about "RIGHT NOW". It could be mundane things about the lives of other people or it could be an event that's affecting large number of people. If something is happening, there would be reports of observations and there would be statements from people in position of making statements.

I don't really think that a state should run a service about what's happening right now but I think that Twitter is invaluable service to the public that needs to be dealt with carefully.

Twitter's power is well beyond the power of displaying ads to users and the only failing thing is the business of displaying ads to users in exchange for money. Twitter's core function is strong, it's not a failing product.
Without getting into whether Facebook is more or less evil than peak MS, I think the problem even if an internet company is only a little evil, that evil has much more reach. Peak MS really just affected other tech companies and user choice.

Is it even worth doing this?

I don't think self-perception and outside-perception align very often for anybody, mostly because we are incapable of perceiving ourselves without bias and we can't control other people's subjective impressions of us.

In a way, their behavior could be interpreted as "revolting against categorizing humans by inventing ridiculous new categories", which might be a nobel and idealistic cause (as categories are often the source of prejudice) but it's also unrealistic because it denies certain biological realities of which none are subjective in any way.

The author mentions the library Bluebird, which I think is a fantastic library. The 'mapSeries' method it offers is also very useful when iterating over an array of values that need to be 'promisified' and mapped in the given order. You can even set 'concurrency' as an option, which puts a limit on the concurrent promises that can run (great for reducing API load).
