I've heard before of how people with dementia will sing the songs of their youth. And I have wondered, when I'm old, if my mind goes, will I too start singing the sweet notes of Blood, Fire, Death; Equimanthorn; Zombie Ritual; Mutilation; Hammer Smashed Face; Skullfull of Maggots; and the like? Will I walk around the corridors of whatever care home I end up in, belting out Tom Araya's blood-curdling screams at the beginning of Angel of Death, like I loved to do as a teenager?
I get a little annoyed with this defense.

Automatic re-train is a "feature" you cannot turn off, cannot turn on, have no visual feedback that it occurs, and ultimately weakens the security of your device.

If this is what is causing Face Unlock to fail then that's still just as much Apple's responsibility than any other methodology. You also have no way to knowing how much re-train has occurred since Apple doesn't provide that information.
It was just an example. It could be whatever the user wants to pay; since they're paying the fees for each transaction, it makes sense to keep some money in a wallet.

He implies that being “live” with “real money” and a billion dollar market cap means something. It doesn’t. He says:

“You do not release financial software to the general public in such a buggy state. You do not blame the victims for your software failing to function.”

When in fact, you do _whatever the hell you want_. This is not “financial software” in the original sense. The fact that people put significant amounts of cash in these altcoins is astounding. You only have [some] guarantees where the system itself enforces them, like BitCoin, and even then no one entity is liable for your losses because of de-centralization.

It depends on how you define racism. The meaning people use when calling stuff like this racist is not meant as an insult, and it's not even a comment on the character of the people doing it. Good people can do racist things by this definition since it's focused on systems instead of individuals.

Unfortunately, people rarely define their terms when talking about sensitive subjects. It'd save a lot of people a lot of stress.

I've seen quite a few good projects written in an "OOP" language, but not in an OOP style - mostly misuse classes for namespacing (which I don't think is a good idea either since it makes usages of namespaced things hard to find).

I've never seen a "true" OOP project that wasn't quite a mess and couldn't have been written much cleaner in a plain old procedural style:

Use freestanding functions, the most successful abstraction to date.

Stop with that singleton bullshit. Most things that need to be managed exist precisely once in a program (talk to the sound card, to the printer, to the network, to the graphics card, to the file system, allocate memory...). Making classes first and instanciating once (or how many times, how can I know by looking at that handle?) is just plain silly, overly verbose, and confusing to the consumer of the API.

Don't couple allocation and initialization. It's a stupid idea. It leads to pointless, inefficient, and (in some languages) error-prone one-by-one allocations.

Flat fixed structs for data organization. By default expose struct size for massive decrease in memory allocation. Expose almost all fields (except for truly platform / implementation-defined ones) and stop with that silly getter/setter boilerplate.

Mostly use data tables (with direct integer indexing mostly) like in a relational database, for data-driven architectures. (CS/programming technology TODO: How can we switch between AOS/SOA more seamlessly? Maybe we can get inspiration from Graphics APIs?)

Don't use silly flexible-schema XML/object hierarchies to "compensate" for having no idea what's in the data. It doesn't help.

Make interfaces ("vtables" if you will) only sometimes where they are needed, not by default. Don't call this inheritance. Bullshit. It's an interface, not more, not less. If you think interface descriptions must typically be bundled with each data item, think harder. They are independent data.

We don't need no friggin "doer" objects for every simple thing. It doesn't help a bit, but only makes things less readable and more complex. Just do what needs to be done!
Yes, but attackers being able to create transactions that they themselves can verify would make the situation even worse. What defence does IOTA have against this? It seems an obvious exploit.

Fully implementing Bitcoin white paper would require moderate amount of work if you do not consider every little detail related to security of your client code. However, current Bitcoin protocol added many features such as scripting.

I think one can maintain code readability in a python implementation but documentation is the key here. Developer needs to clearly state the objective of each function.

For ethereum, you need one external element called: Ethereum Virtual Machine. Smart Contracts are basically byte code that runs on EVM. Without it, blockchain cannot function. So, ethereum development may require extra knowledge on top of blockchain technology.

Note that Bitcoin does two rounds of SHA256 rather than one round of MD5. There's also a "P2P DHT" (peer-to-peer distributed hash table) for storing and retrieving blocks from the blockchain; instead of traditional database multi-master replication and secured offline backups.

If it weren't for the fact that the U.S. charges capital gains tax on every little purchase, I'd happily spend my cryptocurrency and just replenish it as I go. Trading between currencies makes this a non-issue.

Also, if you're really convinced a cryptocurrency will go up, your same argument suggests you should buy the cryptocurrency rather than spending dollars on anything else. If you're not doing that, it indicates you're not totally certain of the future after all, so you can just as well spend your cryptocurrency.

There's also the macroeconomic effect of deflation to consider, but that's only an issue if there's only one currency. What we're actually getting is the competing private currencies advocated by Hayek. It doesn't matter so much if one currency deflates as long as the total money supply is sufficient.
I'm very curious on your stance. Would be able to elaborate further?

There needs to be somebody with a pipette dosing the right amount, keeping track of the time that you don't take the next dose in less than an hour and guards to prevent you from drinking alcohol. Or we have lots of naked people climbing to the trees, fainted or dead.

We've seen this in the Berlin gay community. People don't know how to dose GBL, almost nobody knows how to cook GHB. It's common to have an ambulance coming to the clubs every weekend to pick up another overdose.

GHB feels like a better alcohol when done right, but it is notoriously hard to dose right. You might not feel anything after 45 minutes of the first dose, drink more and pass out.

That's not entirely true. IANAL, nor am I familiar with this particular area of the law, but many places of the law include the concept of a "reasonable person". That is, whether you have acted as a reasonable person would act.

In a place where the law is clearly defined, you're correct, that wouldn't help. However, when the law is vague, a documented conversation like that is definitely good evidence that one was acting reasonably.
Just read through the Dutch accessibility article and ... I find it incredibly hard to believe that a system like that actually works during periods of real traffic. During commute-heavy hours, there is no way in hell the NS could do this for even 0.1% wheelchair travelers on a train line. You also just don't see wheelchair users on Dutch trains. Never. I mean, it's not like I was paying attention to it and yes, there is sometimes section with a wheelchair accessible toilet, but there's never any wheelchairs there. I mean I take perhaps 2 or 3 Dutch trains per year, but still.

So to put it bluntly: I see your articles ... they paint a completely unrealistic picture, and frankly I refuse to believe that things practically work this way.

A lot of details are unspecified. They essentially say "call 3 hours in advance and we'll provide". I called "sorry we don't work at this time, call back during working hours ... blah blah blah", but of course there are (a lot of) trains riding around at the moment. So ... not during weekends ?
I hope it's not that bad. Somehow this isn't mentioned on that page. It also seems to be limited to large stations and is not generally available on either all trains or all stations.

I also refuse to believe that this can work for 10-15 wheelchair users on one train. Picturing such a situation raises all sorts of practical issues (for one, I seriously doubt that you can fit more than 5-6 wheelchairs in the biggest NS wheelchair section in a train that I've ever seen) that I'm thinking they just don't deal with.

Just no.

Additionally I'm ignoring the fact that for wheelchair users and other accessibility-challenged users the other problems of the train (such as a potentially large walking distance between the station and your house and/or your actual destination) that cars don't have as much are much worse than for normal people.

I will agree that the trains in Holland are much more usable than the trains in the Bay Area. That's certainly true. But practical for wheelchair users ? No way. Anywhere even remotely as good as having a car ? No way. (but yes, if you're rich (cars are cheaper), and live in inner city of the Hague, they're certainly more practical)
In Sweden kids are taught how to navigate by public transportation while they are at kindergarten. 7-9-ish might still be considered too young to travel alone (probably because kids are easily distracted), but it's not uncommon for a 9-10 yo to take care of a 6yo and take him home by commuter train.

Traveling long distances by commuter train and then switching to bus is not uncommon for kids ages 11 and up.

>For example, single shot rifles and shotguns are legal in the UK. Yet rarely used. Why is that?

They're extremely well regulated. Many thousands of British people enjoy hunting and target shooting, but they do so under strict supervision. If you want to own a rifle or shotgun, you need to apply for a license. To receive a license, you need a clean criminal record, a clean bill of mental health and evidence that you have a legitimate sporting or agricultural use. In the case of a sporting application, you'll need to be a member in good standing of a recognised shooting club; if you're a target or clay pigeon shooter, the presumption is that you'll store your firearms on club premises unless you have a legitimate reason to keep your firearms at home.

Any purchase of a firearm has to be approved in advance by the police. Your license permits you to hold a specified quantity of ammunition; you can be asked to account for how your ammunition was used and investigated if you purchase quantities of ammunition that appear to exceed your normal use. Your firearms must be kept in a locked container when not in use, whether in storage or in transit. The police have the right to enter your home at any time to inspect your firearms.

Any breach of your license is an extremely serious offence that will almost always lead to revocation of your license and can lead to a custodial sentence.

I hate working with pedantic programmers who chastise you for using the wrong http method or not formatting url's correctly because it's not restful, and then few years later jump onto some new tech, like graphql or something else, and then evangelizing the new religion. That's how some "senior" devs maintain their importance, using this esoteric knowledge to keep lesser programmers out. And if you try to catch up, you're playing a fool's game, by the time you learn all the peculiarities of their interpretation of "RESTfull", they have already jumped to GraphQL. Same for React (remember this one - presentation (HTML) and logic (JS) should not mix!?), but now that we've switched from backbone to react, suddenly it's ok. It also applied to random methodologies like agile, scrum etc. A lot of cargo-culting, and not a lot of actual engineering.
How to Have Fewer Regrets
It's a change in culture. When I was a kid, it was pretty normal for a 9-year-old to take the public bus to school alone and then the subway to an after-school program. In New York City. In the 1980s (aka the "bad old days").

The level of parental paranoia and of cultural concern has skyrocketed. We're so concerned about actual neglectful parenting and so paranoid about infinitesimally low-probability events that we are afraid to give our children what would once have been considered age-appropriate levels of autonomy and responsibility; and parents who do attempt to are under threat from a safety net originally intended to prevent qualitatively different behaviors.
