As someone who had a heavy skepticism of autocomplete from other environments (including Visual Studio, though I admittedly haven't been using that since the VS 2008 era), I have to say I find the autocomplete in Android Studio damn near magical.

I sometimes wear contact lenses. When I first started wearing them it took me over an hour to get them in. It was so hard to keep my eye open and put the lens in.

Over the weeks and months I slowly got better at it. Now I can literally touch my finger to my eyeball without flinching. The exact scientific reason for that, I don't know, but I did train my brain to stop reflexively closing my eyes when I go to touch them.

Without a lens on my finger touching my eye actually hurts a little -- so there is a good reason for that reflex in the first place.

Mechanics in games, much like things in user interfaces should be discoverable without reading a manual. The actual act of creating a potion or weapon out of materials or managing your inventory or doing simple combat should not have to be looked up. The process for creating or doing something well can be experimental or based on skill, but the physical act of doing the thing should be easy to understand without reading. This extends beyond games to user interfaces, tools, or many other things. It's clear what a knife does when you look at it, getting good at preparing food takes practice.

Recessions in the US are defined by NBER, and while they usually include two consecutive quarters of GDP contraction, that is not always the case, and it certainly is not the definition (as GDP is not the only factor considered.)

Notably, the 2001 recession did not include two consecutive quarters of GDP contraction, and while the 2007-2009 did include more than two consecutive quarters of GDP decline, they weren't at the beginning of the recession.

> Now companies like DJI can compete and beat us

DJI hires high quality Chinese engineers. Their software is better than what American consumer drone companies manage to push out, and they can push the latest tech to market insanely quick, as GoPro learned the hard way when they found out DJI was a half generation ahead of them on drone tech.

DJI has great customer service, an amazing insurance plan that provides piece of mind, and bullet proof build quality.

They do have a major advantage of being in China, so they can work with suppliers much more directly. It doesn't feel like they are using the grey technology market though. A lot of the lower priced drones are obviously put together from Shenzen part bins, but DJI just feels good all around.

That said, their Android mobile app is a bit janky at times. Then again, lots of stuff on Android is a bit janky...

> Why not let the individual airlines decide?

Airlines are free to allow pets aboard. But they've all made the decision not to allow it, except for a fee (and even then, only for small animals that go under your seat). Right now, the airlines are forced to allow emotional support animals. I don't think many people would be against a pet friendly airline. I think the issue is that the airlines don't want to be pet friendly (most likely they'd rather not deal with the hassle), but the law requires them to accommodate trained service animals (e.g. seeing eye dogs or dogs trained to detect imminent seizures), which most people probably don't object to as well as emotional support dogs (which many people do object to because they feel that the system is being gamed)

Much like the SCO lawsuit being good for Linux. For a white it was a lot of drama and fear, but in the end Linux came out stronger because it had been through it.

I have to disagree with this.

If SCO actually had been arguing something interesting from a legal point of view, Linux (RH, IBM, Novell, etc. in this case) would have then had a more solid legal foundation. If, for example, this had been a case about GPL enforcement.

However, SCO spent a long, long time obfuscating what exactly they were arguing about. They spent a long time (and lots of resources) trying to just wear down the defendants and get them to settle.

When finally distilled by the totally awesome Judge Kimball and the defense teams, what was truly left was a small pile of crap, from a legal point of view. It did nothing to set precedents going forward, and we (as a society) didn't end up learning anything of value, other than that BSF (the main law firm for SCO) was morally bankrupt.
I thought this was an interesting angle:

"U.S. policymakers argue that American data protection standards, enshrined in the constitution and enforced aggressively by the Federal Trade Commission, do more to guard against misuse than European standards, which often can be more bark than bite."

Hmm, have you used any of the Java-based autocompletion systems? - IntellJ / Android Studio autocompletion system is context aware and will only list relevant methods (which means that the list is rather short and useful for the context). Which is a stark contrast to many ctags-like autocompletion systems, which will just dump all the symbols on you and aren't very useful in my experience.

Using autocompletion means you don't have to leave the editor window and I've found it hugely useful for methods which have several overrides - instead of leaving the editor, you just choose the one you need as you type.

I guess. The reality is they own so much information and so many processes that basically no matter what happens this company is going to zombie on in some way or another.

Like they are forced to sell their assets, ok I'm sure those assets end up with basically the same shareholders they have now and basically the same people working on it under a new branding. Probably some leadership changes but the same offices with a new banner on the wall next to the same people in the same cubicles. Great.

Or maybe they move offices a few buildings over. Its all the same garbage.

Serious monetary punishment could possibly force reform, but just destroying equifax will do nothing and honestly the name "equifax" is just a word you would be replacing with another meaningless word that is basically the same thing.

> Europe wants to conquer the world all over again.

So Europe makes new regulations that improve the life of european people and they try to spin it up as a global domination move. As a European I am really happy that I am more protected. If a company wants to make business with me I expect them to follow the local regulations! That is not a new world order plot, cmon.

Stronger regulation some times is better when made with the citizens in mind, see the TTIP. Why would we (europeans) want to reduce our food quality regulations? Why wouldn't we want a better data protection?

Specially after Equifax scandal, I am so happy that things are changing over Europe.

Edit: specified better what I think is non-sense

Empirical? It's the only kind that really matters in the end. Any idiot can see that Rust is safer in theory, but reality is where the action is. I'm guessing unsafe doesn't constitute a significant subset then, since it's worse than C++. And that's the point, Rust is not going to threaten C or C++ without plenty of unsafe code being written in Rust.

It's not that they don't consider others (though there are plenty of angry drivers out there). It's that they're assuming they know better than traffic engineers and legislators. That assumption is full of hubris, and even if sometimes correct, it makes it more difficult for people setting the limits to do global optimization. But yes, ultimately it is - maybe unintentionally - not considering other users of the road system.

The classic explanation is that the economy is growing and thus the overall "pie" being shared is growing even if individual pieces are not as predictable.

This is counterintuitive, but globally saving is not possible, in a financial sense. IIRC from economic models it nets out to investment.

Which makes sense. Real world saving is amassing a grain store, or an oil stockpile in a strategic reserve, etc

And we can't do very much of that. Monetary savings depends on the ability to buy things of value from a later generation of producers.

A small country can use savings to buy from other countries. The larger the country, the less possible that is, as the large country becomes a significant portion of the world economy.

A simpler way of looking at it is: if the future generation started producing half as much, you wouldn't expect monetary savings to command the same worth in terms of real goods that they used to.
