"Any horrible task can be split up and thus be made more fullfillable by the human employed in the process."

I think you're onto something here but I think there is a detail you've missed - hierarchy.

It's not the number of people involved that allows a a terrible process to be completed but rather the number of layers of hierarchy.

Someone at the top says "just make this (outcome) happen" and if they say that to the person who actually has to carry it out, there is pushback or guilt or exposure. But if that person can, in turn, tell someone else a level below to "just make this (outcome) happen" eventually there is enough insulation (emotional, legal, etc.) that someone at the end of the chain can get the shaft.

You can't really do that with a flat (absent) hierarchy.

For most of the physics taught to undergraduates my textbooks from '74-'77 would do just fine. Newtonian mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and special relativity have not changed. Neither has the mathematics used to describe them. And as for the idea of homework assignments, that's just ludicrous. The only reliable way to demonstrate, both to yourself and others, that you have understood something is to successfully explain it to someone else who can ask searching questions; for instance to a tutor or tutorial group.

I was fortunate to get to see Robonaut in its home lab on two separate occasions 2006 - 2008. It is/was mainly a platform for research in teleoperation and hand-gripping. I was confused when I first saw a news item, years ago, about it going up to the ISS, because while it was forward looking to this purpose, it didn't seem like the prototype itself was intended for this. I think they'd have done some things differently if they knew the prototype itself was going to go up - probably make it smaller and lighter for one. But do remember, when this was started was before things like the Raspberry Pi, so a lot of components (computers, cameras, actuators) were bigger then than they would be now.

It was interesting to see the design evolve. For instance the first-generation Robonaut hand was based on human anatomy. One of the researchers spoke to hand surgeons and even observed real surgeries to learn about this anatomy. So the fingers of the first-generation hand were endoskeleton-supported. But on my second visit I got to see parts from a version of the hand they had just (or were just about to) put in. These were more of an exoskeleton design, like a loop/outline of each segment of a finger. (Unlike an insect exoskeleton, these segments were not fully enclosed; think of like a 2D loop not 3D tube.) Apparently the second design gave more room to put sensors in the fingers (and, I imagine, protected the sensors better). Once the glove is on the hand, you can't tell the difference.
The problem is that you are tracked by FB and Google on other websites, they know what you are reading and canalizing it, say they know what politics site you visit, what technology site you are reading, any other pages and then they put you in a bucket for advertising(say rich dude likes expensive tech, car videos, prefers dark color sites, not that smart, prefers this party, has X opinions on y)

Google analytics should not be allowed without me getting a prompt to allow it or not, FB button should be a simple static image without tracking unless I click on it. Also they track users that are not logged in or do not have accounts.
>>in general it's harder to reason about transformable lists of code than it is about plain old objects and their methods.

Well actually no. Other languages make it easier for beginners to get started, but they just keep you there. Because its harder to do that the advanced stuff in those languages.

>>Almost every problem elegantly solved in lisp has a parallel elegant solution in Ruby (using blocks, dynamic method definition, or otherwise) and I generally find the resulting code both more maintainable as well as more readable.

Its other way around. We solve trivial library stitching problems in other language, and the we try the same in Lisp and don't see the point. But then that is also a kind of mental handicap. You can do things beyond a point because tools are making it harder for you to keep going forward. And then you use Lisp with the same philosophy and don't see the point.
Its gotten to the point where the first thing I do when reading a paper is skim for their training data.

I recall using a very attractive photo of a woman (not a model as that would be too obviously fake) on a forum and asking about salary ranges in a city.

The next morning, the thread had over a hundred replies and I even got one private message offering an interview. I hadn’t even linked to my work.

That said I think this has a lot more to do with attractiveness and race than gender. Anytime you see someone post a photo of an attractive man holding a cute animal on /r/aww the comments from women are equally extremely cringey and weird.
Is anyone else afraid that this will enable a "Tower of Babel" effect where the coming sheer profusion of languages will fragment web programming into dozens of competing, mutually-incomprehensible linguistic camps.

Javascript sucks, but at least it's the web's lingua franca.
There are a range of services out there already. There was a YCombinator startup where you could sign up and be a volunteer "listener" after completing some online training - sorry forget the name now - it was designed to solve the issue you are talking about.

There's also Interpals - a free penpal service. You can use it to learn languages too, although some people seem to use it as a dating site!
I'm glad to see I'm not totally crazy for adopting that pattern! As I'm new to the language, I'm not sure whether I'm holding it right.

That is correct (and we appreciate the citation). The tensor compiler (taco) has focused on compiling expressions that contain one or more sparse tensors so far and, even though it can generate code for dense expressions just fine, does not optimize these like TC, TCE, and XLA does. We are working on a scheduling language for it so that it will perform well across all types of formats and on GPUs.

Yeah. Not to mention a lot of SMTP pain is when a major provider decides to blackhole you, or you are spam blacklisted, neither of which is under your control. Even a large corporation that self-hosts mail may have to constantly call other companies to get on their good side so they can send mail again.

Privacy from host is not possible, and you make a very good point about hardware access.

Virtual machine are secured by the shared host. I don't really expect top security from this end. A replica backup MX enables me to safely change hosts, if they behave badly.

OpenBSD defaults are what I base my endpoint security on, and keeping this updated is super easy.

Are you male though? These men are everywhere for women. It is a minority of men, definitely, but that minority directs the whole of their psychological issues to women. They won't do this to you, they will rarely do this around you, and if they are around others they do it in a way that's hidden from your eyes. And the thing is, these guys are everywhere on the Internet as well. I think they spawn from 4chan or something. It starts young and the issues just keep building. They are anonymous, consequence-free interactions with women that let them vent their own issues with women. And then they go to echo-chamber forums like 4chan to validate their distorted reality. They won't interact with you because they don't have an issue with you, unless you also advocate for women and make your views public, in which case they will attempt to poke holes in your masculinity.

>>Why don't write OOP in Lisp?

Because most people understand OO as some kind of namespace scheme. Basically to bunch together functionality under a name(class).

When people talk of OO, most of them, are actually talking about modularizing code.

That's already happening - web development seems to assume that compiling to javascript from any one of a legion of languages should be standard practice.

You're exactly right. This is a minority of men. Which is why, as a woman, I think we need to examine why this minority has such deep seated issues with women. It's not men in general, it's the fringes of society, and the fringes are very telling of the society as a whole. they represent all our fears and mistakes, because these fears and mistakes become all that they can perceive.

Sweet expressions are a bridge too far IMHO. I would be perfectly content with merely getting rid of those dangling ))))) thanks to simple parentheses insertion† based on a single very simple indent/dedent rule:

> if the next line is indented, anything from the beginning of the current line starting at the indent till a dedent matching the current line indent is wrapped in one set of parentheses.

Seriously, what about this?

defmacro deftag [name]
list 'defn name ['& 'inner]
list 'str "<" (str name) ">"
'(apply str inner)
"</" (str name) ">"

deftag html
deftag body
deftag h1
deftag p

Now what about the DSL that now downright looks like slim-lang?:

html
body
h1 "Hello World"
p "How's it going?"

Or look at that:

defn qsort [coll]
if (empty? coll)
coll
let [pivot (first coll)
remainder (rest coll)]
concat
(qsort (filter (partial > pivot) remainder))
[pivot]
(qsort (filter (partial <= pivot) remainder))

(even the qsort ones could be removed, but they balance [pivot] somehow)

I'm perfectly happy with writing (+ 1 2 3) or whatever, the only parentheses that bother me are those that are perfectly delineated by indentation already, just as newlines perform the same duty as semicolons. They're just duplicated noise††.

† Other languages perform similar semicolon insertion, with varying degrees of success and ambiguities (JS==terrible, Go==terrific).

†† I know, you're supposed to get used to it and "unsee" them. I know, "paredit!". But seriously if you have to write a tool solely to produce noise, and you have to get accustomed to ignore said noise, well, somehow, something's off.

This is not true for many reasons. Firstly every time you begin a block of code in any language you add parentheses, So the parentheses count comes out same in all languages.

Secondly, parentheses are a non-issue in lisp. Its almost like reading english text with spaces. After a while(quite quickly in-fact) they are a total non issue.

Gutted to find that perhaps I could have been buoyed by working tax credits. That I have never claimed. Self-employment hasn't worked out for me - just left me with more and more debt.

Years ago I think the LSE ran a study, that concluded, you may as well just close all job centres, and give a no questions asked hand-out instead. There's a stigma attached to bad jobs, benefits, and poor income - and with some of that lifted, it might provide a better seed-bed for some business.

Benefits are generally designed for short-term-ism, you can survive on not a lot, but opportunities are removed. Even basic socialisation becomes hard: you can't afford a drink in the pub.

That being said, I've never been poorer than being self-employed. I know it works for some, and there are benefits, but it doesn't work for all.
This is exactly what we mean as "code as data" and why it is so profound and has such exciting potential:

I completely agree with your point but in this case it's not a simplification, it's yet an other exception. I can understand exceptions or odd pronunciations disappearing but that's the other way around.

Normally words in english which have "ce" in them are not pronounced "ke". Similarly words whose singular ends with "~us" do not usually become "~i" in the plural. You don't say "one bus, two bi", "one fetus, two feti". Cherry-picking a few words that for some reason should follow latin grammar is more motivated by sounding "smart" than linguistic necessity IMO.

I don't necessarily disagree that there isn't much of tangible value to be gained for us, but I don't think it's useless to discuss these scenarios. Hopefully it helps us human inform future decisions we may all have to make one day, and if people talk about problems enough they have a way of becoming acknowledged.
