That's a talk about brainwallets, which is something else. Brainwallets are generally chosen by humans; you can't rigorously prove how much entropy they have, and in practice it's usually much less than people realize.

With a proper 12-word phrase, each is randomly chosen from a list of 2048 words for 11 bits of entropy per word. That's 132 bits of entropy, which is not crackable. (With a 24-word phrase you subtract 8 bits for a checksum; I'm not sure about the 12-word format, but 124 bits of entropy isn't crackable either.)

Ownership is good, but only up to a point. In this approach, developers end up being independent contractors on a payroll.

If you focus only on deliverables and deadlines, you'll end up with developers using a mix of different approaches, libraries and even languages. It hurts team cohesion and makes the logistics of project management much harder since Joe can't take over Tom's code now that Tom has the flu.

As I see it, one of the main tasks of a technical manager is to set conventions so everyone would feel at least semi-comfortable with everyone else's code. That's not micro-management, that's management.
McColloch and Pitts and are generally credited with the theoretical foundations of artificial neurons in the 40s, and around that time Hebb was doing some pioneering work on activation potentials, but traces of the idea can be found as far back as James's Principles of Psychology.

And there are journalists that are corrupt, paid by politicians, paid by drug lords. It is hard to believe the news coming from official journalists. Foreign journalists must go to the Philippines and investigate themselves. If this kind of article the world believes, and Duterte will be kicked from his precidency then my neighbor would like to celebrate and be back into his drug business.

The author misunderstands what methodology is. TDD is a single practice, not a methodology. OOP is a way of structuring code, not a methodology.

What I have seen work is methodologies adopted to get the benefits of what the methodology actually delivers. Not a checkbox so say "we are X".
Mass murder is mass murder even if a populace is brainwashed, though I would would wager when you have death squads wandering around and use the cover of drugs to take out political opponents to gain power most people would side with you out of fear anyway, like most oppressive dictatorships. People like you are disgusting, you want to support such mass murder on genocidal levels fine but don't be surprised when people shun you. If it we're up to me you should be the one getting murdered for supporting this shit rather than all the innocents killed so far and pending due to fucking chemicals.
You still need to make something that tens of millions of people will sped at least $100 on. And that's just to gross $1 billion.
Nintendo still takes action against DS and 3DS flashcart resellers where they can, so you usually have to import them directly from China.

They don't seem to care about NES/SNES/N64/GB/GBA flashcarts anymore however, those are readily available from NA and EU based stores.
You see that also in American action movies where the "good" guy often with joy kills the "bad" guy. You don't see that that much in European movies where a killing situation is often portrayed with more internal conflict.
You've basically just defined "went viral".
Do I need to have lived in Nazi Germany to talk about the crimes of the Nazis?

I'm not from the US and I'm a vocal critic of US governments, past and present. But even if I was American, the actions of the US government wouldn't be something it was within my power to change and wouldn't be relevant to what Duterte is doing.

Are you familiar with Baffin Island? Are you aware that polar bears need sea ice to hunt?

It is very easy to draw a line from warming to lack of sea ice in a place where our living record shows there should be ample amounts to polar bears in Baffin starving. This is not a jump.
A lot of companies just rechristen their "ops" guys "devops" and then say they're doing devops.
All methodologies are created for people who do not understand "why", they are inherently religious. Otherwise why would you need a methodology if you do understand all the "why"s? You can just develop one much more suited for your people and your projects and fine tune it over time.
In the west that might be the case, check and balance for journalists. Our previous administration used to do that as well. Duterte doesn't want to spin information. If you're in doubt you can request something from their Freedom of Information website.
Methodologies help.
But ultimately there is no methodology that lets you make money, deliver products that buyers want, outsmart your competition, eliminate team/corporate politics and so on.

I don't know why people buy into the "when we'll be agile enough, everything's going to be ok; until then let us use this whip and self-flagelate for not being agile enough:
From what I've seen, with us, fear is the motivator for the mistreatment of others, not greed.

It's the same story at every company: developers are under constant pressure from management, we aren't given the tools or help we need at the right time, we get no credit, but all the blame when things go wrong. When people feel threatened, the open and creative part of their brain shuts down and it becomes fight or flight and every man for himself. Devs become extremely rigid and dogmatic, as every bad work experience leaves a scar on us, and they resolve to never EVER make the same mistake again.

"Hell is other people" is like the personal motto of some programmers. You don't agree with me, fine, I'll just refactor your code when you're sleeping. People read random blog posts and then take it as holy writ, undisputable proof, and if you disagree then let me write a long email lecture to educate you about why I'm right and you're wrong. I've seen people get into physical FIGHTS at scrum, resulting in broken bones. I wish I was making this up.
I think the ability to take an approach that time and resource intensive is made possible by the fact it happens so seldom.

> In non lisp languages, the mutable array often came without map / filter

What languages do you know that have map and filter for lists, but not for arrays? Lisp has them for both, C++ has them for both, Java has them for both; Java didn't used to have lambdas or map, but it had standard lists long before it got either of them. Several decades before Java existed, Lisp had mutable arrays with map and filter. Supporting higher order functions has nothing at all to do with arrays vs lists.

> didn't have lambdas so you end up writing imperative loops

Lisp does have lambdas and imperative loops are still extremely common in Lisp code.

Add: process vs getting work done. We have to be cognizant that every minute spent on process, is not spent on writing deliverable code. I know, process can help ensure the correctness etc. But when the job becomes the process, and not writing and delivering code, then everything slows to a standstill.

Hey! I don't know him. I live in the Philippines and I believe in what he said.
People who have not been in the Philippines and are saying things that they don't know are just plain ignorant. For you to even accuse me of being disgusting just proves how naive you are about me and my country.
Maybe that's more accurate. I was using "politics" as just a catch-all term for anti-social behavior in general, but it is more specific than that.
It seems like you're over-thinking this. There are clear things that are bad (making sexual jokes about a coworker or business partners). There are other areas that are more gray, and sometimes you might say the wrong thing. Sometimes we'll all say the wrong thing. Apologize, don't try to justify your remarks, move on and realize that everyone has different things that might offend or make them uncomfortable. That's really all you can do. The high-profile things you're hearing about aren't generally one-time slip ups, it's people exhibiting a pattern of bad behavior.

It's rough.
I think ClojureScript is very nice and I often recommend it to any Javascripter.

I sincerely thank Hickey for liberating us from Java and plain Javascript. I think that if Clojure was pitched more as substitutes of Javaxx and less as "the improvement over Lisp", many of us Lispers would be happy. As I mentioned, it isn't an improved Lisp; it is a different language with a different (valid) philosophy which some will like.
My reading comprehension on first waking up was terrible. I thought we were disagreeing, but I can see you were clearly adding to my statement, not contradicting it. :)

Proper grammar and spelling. Concise description of what the organization does and how the job fits into the organization's activities. For software positions the technical mix should make sense.
Why men fight
Your physical location is relevant because your knowledge about what's going on in the Philippines is very limited. The fact that you are saying about death squads proves my point. THERE ARE NO DEATH SQUADS HERE! Watching a few videos doesn't make you an expert about Philippines.
I don't know how true this is, but I find that Dutch and Belgian drivers seem to have much less regard for traffic laws than the Germans and UK drivers. Things like not cutting corners and indicating at roundabouts.

One big difference I notice is the amount of space that is between cars. Germans and UK drivers leave much bigger time gap than Belgians / Dutch.

I spent 10 years driving in the UK and now 7 years driving in Belgium and occasionally across to Germany / Holland
I have lived in a number of places - Phoenix, AZ, Chicago, IL, Orlando, FL are probably the spots I spent the most time.

When I lived in Glendale, a suburb of Phoenix, the city installed a system that could track gunfire and pinpoint the location for police. I can say I've heard gunfire in every city I've mentioned and called it in to police in those places more than once.

I don't even know where to begin with 2. I was fishing with a friend on the Verde river in AZ. We were just below the Horseshoe dam. We were fishing for catfish at night. Someone a little further down river (couldn't see them through the bushes and such) started firing off guns. We immediately packed up and left. They were probably partying and shooting up into the air.

The idea that if you hear gunfire you should just ignore it unless you've been hit - well I have to believe you are just trolling.
> edit: down-voters, please share why you down-vote!

The one thing that I religiously downvote on HN is complaints about down votes.
I was irritated by that comment as well. Obviously some groups are subject to prejudice more often than others, but measures like reverse discrimination and quotas cause their share of problems for the opposite groups as well. Likewise, some groups may be more subject to unwanted advances at work than others, but again that doesn't mean no-one in the opposite groups is. It's hardly inconceivable that 1-2% of male respondents in a survey like this would have been affected by such issues in one form or another.
Curious where you see ITIL fitting in. I always considered it to be the ops methodology.
Sorry to say but it looks another of those cryptocurrency things which talks big but deliver very little.

The very first ICO fails on the metric set above. The capital structure is skewed. It says pre-sale at no lock in. That is nearly 2 million dollars at current IPO price. Public sale accounts only for 35% and 65% by foundation, team, apitode etc. So much for decentralization. Then they also value themselves at 450 million dollars. Based on what market?

Unrelated: I'm obviously quite biased, but I generally like Haskell code for pseudo code like things, because it does away with a lot of syntax specific cruft, and stays close to the math it's usually talking about.

OP should probably link to another source for the original Bitcoin white paper, for example https://bitcoin.com/bitcoin.pdf

If you look across Europe where most nations have had as much time as the other to learn the rules (which is now about 100 years), there are still big differences.
The US has problems with criminal justice, but let's not even compare. Duterte is not even on the same league.
I don't think it is everything but I think it is a lot. Comparing a very small northern European country to the whole of the USA is a bit difficult in my opinion. I think it's hard to make comparisons that make sense.
> I also wanted to talk about how OCaml came about. Did you expect it to be the language everyone taught in French schools?

On the flip side, entrepreneurs know they have to deploy an airtight reality distortion field.

When dealing with the outside world, sure, the appearance of having faith in your business is important. But believing your own hype to the point of wildly overestimating your prospects doesn't seem like a healthy characteristic in anyone running a business. At some point it's probably going to lead to bad decision-making.

Steve Job's view on management shares similarities to what you have described and I think from my experience I agree with this outlook

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQKis2Cfpeo

"The greatest people are self managing, they don't need to be managed. Once they know what to do they will figure out how to do it. What they need is a common vision, and that's what leadership is. Leadership is having a vision, being able to articulate that, so the people around you can understand it, getting a consensus on a common vision."

"We were in stage where we went out and thought, Oh! We are going to be a big company, so let's hire professional management. We went and hired a bunch of professional management but it didn't work out all well. Most of them were bozos, they knew how to manage but they didn't how to do anything!"

"If you are a great person, why would you want to work with someone you can't learn anything from? You know what's interesting? You know who the best managers are? They are the great individual contributors who never ever want to be a manager but decide they have to be a manager because no one else is gonna do a job as good as them"

I have a question: can someone describe something akin to what we call “methodology” in a completely different field?

Does “scrum for surgery” exist? What is an equivalent of “waterfall” in warfare?

Does something like this exist at all?
I'm wondering about the source data used for this. I looked up the nearest city, and the first two records listed aren't remotely homicides.

In the first, a armed felon killed himself during after an eight hour standoff with the police.

In the second, a man attacked a clerk at a hotel. When police arrived, then man was lying on the floor, bleeding. Police immediately called for medics, but the man became unresponsive and died before fire/medical arrived.

These deaths are both counted as "arrest-related-deaths", which is to say, the actual moment of death was when the police were on scene, but in neither case did the police even use force. I didn't see a place in the article where these kind of situation was excluded. Did I miss something?

[Edit, after more digging into the BJS data, it does contain a homicide flag, which is on about 61% of the records. As long as the OP is filtering by this, it's a good start. But take stats on public police killing websites with a big grain of salt, since these kinds of non-force cases are still included in the top level stats for the sites I checked.]
Do they actually have a case against flashcarts or are they just bullying them into submission?
Can't promise the IRS would see it that way. This is just something I'm not sure about, but my wife was an immigrant to the US and they weren't shy about asking her about foreign assets.
We need to use whatever arguments are effective to steer people and governments to good policy as long as we know those arguments are supporting a cause that is scientifically backed. Some people don't get and don't want to get scientific evidence. If there is a plausible causal chain from global climate change to that suffering polar bear we should be using that polar bear to convince people climate change is real and bad. Most people don't have the patience for or interest in scientific arguments and we have to convince most people that this is a problem not just hacker news.
It's not exactly how I interpret it. I believe a methodology functions due to proper embedding in the team. The embedding happens (or has happened) due to good personal interaction, shared beliefs and shared knowledge. In other words, the methodology is a result of the personal interactions of the team.
No - not trolling. Probably just naive.

I've been near the edge of war-zones. Once or twice, in them. But apparently I've missed out on the urban American experience.
If everyone else does the same you're out of luck. Your best bet is to pay a lot more and hope you pay more than the others.

Very true. I've found at every company that I've worked at that a "bad" process followed consistently by everyone always outperforms the "perfect" process followed haphazardly.
This reminds me of the recent threads about people using Excel instead of "real" software. At the end of the day, you are trying to add value. As long as you aren't adding technical debt or other risks, the how matters much less.
I feel like this hits the nail. In addition to the complexity, there is also the thing that ps2 is comparatively similar to basic PC development, whereas 8/16 bitters have a very distinct different feeling.

2D pixel graphics arguably have aged better than early 3d graphics, and simple pixel graphics is also far more doable for a solo dev (or a very small team) than complex 3d scenes.
