C# does not in any way represent the best that static typing has to offer. Try F#, Haskell or OCaml seriously before discounting static typing. These functional languages offer much better safety (e.g. no nulls, no casts, case exhaustiveness) and are as succinct as Python. They also generalise a lot of features that are ad-hoc in C# and Python (e.g. async-await is a library in F# and Haskell). For me, using Haskell is also like "designing a system in paper, friction free". In fact, I tend to write down the types and type check them, before I attempt to fill in any implementation.

Truth be told, I am not a Python fan. I am seeing it take over in my industry, because it's superficially 'easy' and it's popular. The lack of static typing only later becomes a big problem when large codebases start to appear with many contributors.
Yes but "sucking so bad its not even funny" is still superior to maven and ant (and as another user mentioned, pipenv is a very good approximation of Cargo, which is a really good build and package management system).
Hah several years back in my country (Bulgaria) there was a woman in our “Music Idol” tv show that tried to perform Mariah Carey’s “Without You”, but didn’t know a word of english [1]. And not knowing english is something bulgarians like to laugh at - she became a country wide sensation, shown in probably every comedy show and even the news, as well as earned herself multiple covers on youtube. At some point there was even a talk show in france that had Mariah as a guest, and they showed her that video hoping for a reaction [2] :-D But I agree with Mariah’s answer - you have to be reaaly brave to go on stage before the whole country and sing by trying to come up with words in a language you don’t understand.

Weirdly enough, when researching this I realized that “singing Without You with nonsence english” Is a thing in many different countries. I’d like to think we started it all!

I also lost my trust into zlib recently, given that the current released version is full of bugs, and the current master is written horribly. Not as bad as openssl, but close.
E.g. they are still using K&R sigs, wrong casts, and have several copy&paste bugs which you only detect with a stricter c++ compiler.

That's exactly the reasoning that is the root cause of all these problems. You designed a website and you don't want it to be broken. Fair enough. But as a user, I don't really care about your website - what matters for me is if I can prevent it from taking over my CPU or not. This option should be there and it should be configurable. The browser makers already figured this is a problem and have some rudimentary mechanisms preventing total abuse ("this window/tab became unresponsive...") but if users have more control over it, it completely changes the rules of the game. Having a configurable option "if a script consumes more than N% of CPU, turn it off" would save many people the time spent on looking for the culprit, sometimes hidden between tabs. Fortunately many people have an auditory clue when the JS is abused: the fan noise.

Designers and developers need to understand that allowing them to run their code on my computer is a privilege, not an absolute right. As every right, it must not be abused. If it's abused, it will be terminated. Google finding and disabling these Coinhive miners on YT is just treating the symptoms, not the root cause.

>incel, red-pill, and proud boy ideas that you must refrain from "spilling your seed"—that your reproductive emissions contain some of your essential energy

What you're describing is called NoFap; this community is based on the /r/nofap subreddit and is pretty much entirely separate from the culturally-Othered groups you seem to be trying to "weirdify".

Incel have no interest in NoFap.

To the degree that redpill and Proud Boy-like communities belive in NoFap, it's simply based on the repeatable observation that not masturbating increases energy and motivation - especially sexual motivation. Any man who can go two weeks without ejaculating will observe this easily for himself. The difference can be staggering - you feel like a different person.

It has nothing to do with some strange mysticism. Redpillers, especially, are entirely about rejecting traditional mystical beliefs ("soul mates", "love conquers all", "meant for each other", etc) in exchange for repeatable results-yielding methodologies. Nofap is such a methodology.

Not sure where you got this meme, but let's let it die here now because it's as disconnected from reality as most of what mainstreamers say about marginalized male sexual communities.

VR is not about image perception, but image reaction. The important part is how long it takes from you providing input to the input reaction being perceived by you. The latency between that. And given a sufficiently huge sample size (interacting with VR is many minutes of nothing but samples) a human can very easily discern this latency.
You can stream music from any provider using your phone, but Apple mostly does not allow third party integration with Siri aside from a few preset commands that apps can register to implement. So using the Siri voice commands you can only control Apple Music, because that's all Apple chose to implement. I think they probably will add support for third party music players through Siri in the future, but Apple is probably not unhappy to give users another reason to choose Apple Music.

> in exchange for what?

Guessing here but it could be in exchange to letting them use the data as well. By feeding data back into it, they might get some benefit like a discount for example.

People join and leave companies regularly and having access to the system allows them to low-ball people in salary negotiations thus saving them a considerable chunk of money.

Wonder how legal that is. It's obviously not completely illegal but it seems like it would be a gray area. Should the company be allowed to share a worker's salary information? Does that belong to the worker or the company? If it belongs to the worker the company could still just claim if you work here on page 95 of your contract you agreed to let us share this and it looks like you signed and agreed, so tough luck.

You can almost see some executive there realizing "Hey, I read in <whatever business journal> people are getting pretty good jumps in salaries just by moving jobs. Regular workers shouldn't be able to do those kinda things. It seems if we invent this new product we could fuck people over and make a good chunk of money for ourselves" (followed by maniacal evil laughter).

This is really clever, from a design perspective. I mean, projecting onto a moving particle is a really innovative idea. But scientifically, what I find the most surprising, is that a laser trap can move a particle around at sufficient speeds, outside a vacuum, without losing it. Impressive!

4 step technique:

1) study some topic and write down everything you know / learned about it

2) pretend to teach to somebody or explain to somebody or write down in simple terms

3) when you are explaining use that process to expose the gaps that you don’t think you fully understand if you struggle to explain simply

4) simplify the topic further and keep iterating on your explanation and filling gaps you don’t understand until you can explain the topic in a concise way or simpler language

> I guess you have to put more effort into the weight shift on a heavier two wheeled vehicle?

No, this is not how you're supposed to turn whether you use a motorcycle or are riding at moderately higher speeds on a bicycle and this wrong habit is how people become unable to avoid obstacles in a timely manner on the road.

Turn-by-leaning doesn't exist, it's an illusion. It works because when you lean, you are pushing a bit on the handle bar. Pushing the handle bar in the direction of your turn makes it go to the opposite direction, which makes the 2 wheeled vehicle lean, and once you stop pushing on the handle bar the momentum will keep you from falling further.
You don't need to lean to turn. You only need to push the handle bar. You can in fact put your weight to the side opposite of the lean of the bike ( just be careful and keep the momentum going by pedaling at a fixed rhythm ) so long as you pushed the handlebar the bike will lean toward the direction you pushed, it doesn't matter where you shift your weight.

I am utterly amazed at the general confusion in this thread coming from both motorcycle and bicycle riders.
Countersteering is how you turn no matter which speed you're at on a two wheeled vehicle. The thing about low speed is that once you initiated the turn and made the vehicle lean a little the wheel will automatically self-adjust and turn into the direction you're leaning on, while at higher speeds the wheel will stay straight after you started leaning.

Try it. Go somewhere without obstacles, ride at like 5km/h on a straight line, use only one hand, do not lean your body in any way, and with your one hand, give a gentle push on the right side, and then consciously stop putting any force whatsoever on the handlebar. After your push, the bike will lean to the right because the wheel turned to the left, and once the lean has been initiated, since it's low speed, the wheel will automatically turn to the right side without your help.

The author argues that they are not careful enough and not taking their time to fully inspect the battery packs, while saying that they should stop taking their time and ramp up the production already! Appears to me that she would blame Tesla either way.
I started using type hints and it greatly improves the readability and sometimes catches a mistake. But would love for it to be more.

Maybe a flag to the interpreter that would raise an exception each time it detects an inconsistency at runtime. I can imaging turning this feature on in a staging environment.
I think it's interesting to note the primary usecases / benefits mentioned: more readable than perl, better syntax than bash, easy to follow stacktraces. In short: an object-oriented scripting language. In that respect I think python has succeeded, probably beyond even the author's wildest dreams. And I love python, it's a language I use almost every day. The areas where it falls short are those which it was never designed for, as this announcement reminds us.

> At low speeds you can turn right to go right, but any faster and it's you do the opposite to initiate a lean and the lean does the turning.

Countersteering works at low speeds too. I don't get where this misinformation comes from, even from people who actually ride 2 wheeled vehicles. Try it, ride at a low speed, don't lean your body toward any side, just give a gentle push on the handle bar on the direction you want to go. It will initiate a lean, and the only difference you will see compared to high speed is that the wheel will self adjust after the lean started, and will automatically move toward the direction of the turn, which makes it appear as if you made a "car like" turn, but that's not what happened. The wheel start turning toward the direction of your turn only after the lean from the countersteering has been initiated.

Normally by "jamming" they mean broadcasting noise that downs out the GPS signal. It's a lot more technically difficult to "spoof" the signal and would require transmitters throughout the region, or control of the satellites themselves. Of course the US military has both of those things, but I'd still expect jamming rather than spoofing.

There is absolutely still a host of problems like this and no, there are still many inefficiencies waiting to be poached.

Often these are internal, sometimes highly customer-specific products though.

In many cases writing a simple interface between two existing components unfortunately won't do because these components were either never meant to have external interfaces in the first place or the original programmers aren't available anymore and nobody really knows how to change these components.

So, your only option is rebuilding the whole system from scratch, which is no easy undertaking, given that these kinds of systems often have accumulated decades worth of knowledge and business logic.
