Sure, there's no balance between the male and female roles but that's not the real problem with these films. The problem is that there's very little chance that a woman will enter a relationship as portrayed in these movies. Which leads to never-ending relationship dissatisfaction in relationships. What these movies portray most likely can't be achieved but there are women that get fooled into thinking that that's what they should seek. A recipe for unhappiness.

Starting to go off a tangent from this thread, but I do have a genuine question. It's a popular argument to say poverty and wealth distribution causes crimes. But over in China, even Hong Kong to some extent, poverty has been a problem for generations( and China is only doing better in the past decade). There isn't nearly as much of the type of crime that happens in the US that puts you in personal danger, in China. There could be a lot of petty theft, or even actually stealing from you, but not much of the armed robbery/assault (knife or gun) that is so common in America.

I immigrated from Hong Kong to the US while in high school in the 90s. There is such a stark cultural differences in things like 1) Discipline -- people feel like they can do anything here (both good and bad), and that unfortunately includes the crime side of things. Young kids are much more "daring", as in they're not afraid to assault and rob people. In HK/China, even kids in gangs think of even just stealing a wallet from someone a big deal, much less direct assault. 2) On that topic, gang culture. High school kids here have such a glorified view of the gang life, whereas that sort of thing is really suppressed even among the notorious schools and students in HK/China.

In fact, it's not just an "Asia thing". Travel to Europe, most of the safety and crime issues you have to watch out for are pickpockets and scammers. In America, on Bart, you actually worry about armed assault. I feel like there's something about America culture, and it's not just inequality and poverty that's causing the sort of crime I only see here.

I have a feeling you dont have much experience on working on other peoples code. You have just bundled all kinds of issues into a bucket of "buggy piece of poorly written code". Some of these are outright security vulnerabilities and some make you wonder how was the bug not found so far. Sometimes fixing these issues require a heavy rewrite which cannot be justified as a bug-fix. And how do you justify playing with your customers data by "slapdash jquery-and-duct-tape" techniques.

One thing about 3-D animated movies is that can be rerendered later on with improved rendering tech without being reshot.

I had the fortune to work at an agency that cared a whole lot, and tended to take on clients who had learned hard lessons from bad code written for the platform we worked in.

Code quality matters and has tangible consequences in that niche, and it was awesome to work in that environment.

I haven't worked anywhere like that previously, and I think the key factors that brought code quality to the forefront were:

* Bugs cost sales

* Poor code caused friction for features a significant amount (reduced ROI)

* Small teams and an insanely tight customer relationship to those teams. The client needed to have a stakeholder in our team or as close to that as possible.

But most importantly it was just the company culture from top to bottom. The director cared, he made the project managers care, and we already cared because it's more fun to write good code.

Reminds of "The Congress" by Ari Folman. "Robin Wright is an aging actress with a reputation for being fickle and unreliable, so much so that nobody is willing to offer her roles.

After her body is digitally scanned, the studio will be able to make films starring her, using only computer-generated characters."

>Because we are running on 64-bit machines, your allocator must be coded accordingly, with one exception: the size of the heap will never be greater than or equal to 232 bytes. This does not imply anything about the location of the heap, but there is a neat optimization that can be done using this information. However, be very, very careful if you decide to take advantage of this fact. There are certain invalid optimizations that will pass all the driver checks because of the limited range of functionality we can check in a reasonable amount of time, so we will be manually looking over your code for these violations.

I’m curious about these optimizations and the issues that arise, any pointers on more reading?

This is an awful lot of work for developers…especially on Apple's platforms, where bolt-on solutions are rare and most apps try to make full use of the medium they have.

> I want an OS with the full power of a PC OS + touch. You can get there by taking a mobile OS and making it more powerful, or by taking a PC OS and adding touch to the OS and apps.

Yes, we all do–and Apple is doing this from the "taking a mobile OS and making it more powerful" rather than "taking a PC OS and adding touch to the OS and apps" as Microsoft is doing. My argument is that this is the better way to do things, and the market seems to largely agree.

Which turns out to be not anywhere close to what audience were expecting. I still remember When Toy Story was shown in 1995 created on Silicon Graphics, they said everything was so crazy good, that at the rate of Moore's law, in 10 years time realism in animation is finally achievable. 2005 and The Spirit Within came and we are still no where close. Fast forward another 10 years in 2015 we are definitely better, but realism and Digital Actor is still pretty much a fantasy. At least the case the audience knew it was not real actor. That is 20 years with Moore's law, now Moore's law is gone and we are slowing down, what other kind of innovation will lead us to realism?

Mendel was a monk and high school teacher whose work (he spent a decade hybridizing pea plants in the monastery garden) was published in small regional sources and languished in obscurity for decades. Nobody at the time understood the importance of his work, and biologists continued under mistaken models of how inheritance worked. Decades later other botanists did similar experiments, and then stumbled over Mendel's papers, and credited him for first developing and experimentally validating the correct model. e.g. Correns http://www.esp.org/foundations/genetics/classical/holdings/c...

As far as I know Mendel's model was much simpler and more clearly defined than anything that came before.
Zeta was illegal!

magnussoft/yellowTAB never had a license but distributed a rebranded BeOS 5. After a years long drama they eventually ceased operation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnussoft_ZETA#Criticism

Excerpt from Wikipedia article:

"Zeta had no legal rights to distribute the BeOS software,
much less open source any of it, as the rumours had it.
[...]
The main reason that there hasn't been a public statement
previously is that dealing with this matter legally, in
Germany, is an expensive undertaking and--given the
apparently small amount of funding behind Zeta in its
various incarnations--we'd only be in a position to spend
significant money and legal time to make a point.
[...]
We have sent "cease and desist" letters to YellowTab on a
number of occasions, which have been uniformly ignored. If
Herr Korz [Bernd Korz, Former CEO of yellowTAB] feels that
he holds a legitimate license to the BeOS code he's been
using, we're completely unaware of it, and I'd be
fascinated to see him produce any substantiation for that
claim.”

> You realize we're not in a massive extinction event now right?

Not all previous mass extinctions have involved the sun be blotted out by impact or volcanic events, though several have.

I was leading the AppKit group at NeXT at the time, and "NS" definitely came before the Sun relationship, referring to NextStep (or NeXTSTEP, the spelling changed every release). I distinctly remember our team expecting we'd have to suck it up and change the prefix to something more neutral when the Sun deal was made, and then being surprised that they didn't seem to care when the spec was discussed. Maybe the alternate interpretation of "NeXT and Sun" satisfied them, but I don't remember that expression ever being commonly used, and it was not the original basis for NS.
The problem is it was probably all stolen by now.
NES Mappers aren't quite the same thing as regular memory bank-switching, or even the same as MMU programmability. They were a whole lot weirder.

Mappers, in the context of NES programming, are regions of on-cart ROM or WRAM that were wired up through various custom ASICs (the eponymous "mapper" chips) to do things like, for example, have contiguous looping reads to the same 64-byte address sequence (so, one 8x8 tile's worth of nametable data) produce as output a sequence of animated frames, by having the ASIC switch which physical page is backing that region of the address space once per VBLANK, entirely transparently to the CPU and asynchronously to running code (i.e. not driven by a maskable interrupt.)

In other words, each cartridge essentially cobbled together its own MMU by throwing together random chips which could respond in completely arbitrary ways to specific masked read-lines from the address bus; and many of these chips did very domain-specific things to very small regions of memory, rather than being general-purpose (there have been more than 100 different mapper chips put into NES cartridges, some used by only one released game.) As far as I know, no other system has ever done anything quite so weird as that at a hardware level.

Isn't that already the case in background actors that are not in focus in many cases? There are a lot of examples on youtube, where background actors are either digitally cloned or entirely created only digitally. This goes back at leat a decade, only a matter of time until it will move into the spotlight more. Planet of the Apes is a recent example of pretty impressive CG characters where only movements come from real actors, but of course these are not humans and still look CGish.
Back in 2011, there were much lesser threats to Bitcoin than what we have now. Most people did not take Bitcoin seriously until now. Most people did not want to buy it because they were scared/skeptical about it (a perfect time to invest). Recently many novices who don't understand cryptocurrencies have invested in it - And very likely that fueled the recent rally upto 10k and well beyond that. Its not a good time to invest or buy bitcoins now. Plus the transaction costs have become significant large to ignore.

As of now (near 2018), comparing these bureaucratic threats to that of just a p2p networks is just not correct and may be naive. (It was different in 2011 when this was not well recognized).

What if governments disallow converting Bitcoin to real currency? Why would a govt not use points like - Taxes, Money laundering and terrorism - to prevent bitcoin? Or may be they allow it with some kind of significant bitcoin-conversion-tax?

The only successful SQL injection attack I've encountered in the wild was interesting, because the injection point had no visible output. But by injecting timing calls (eg "SLEEP()") and appropriate conditionals, the attacker was able to extract a few bits of information each request. Their script executed some tens of thousands of requests, and they managed to extract all the table names, and start to extract data from our "users" table.

In retrospect such an attack is obvious, and presumably tools like metasploit make them trivial to execute. But previously I'd had the idea that SQL injection was usually "literal raw data output".
