Every selection process or auction contains subjectivity. Ball players are not just judged on their stats, but on their pedigree, coaches, and endorsements, the compilation of which are subjective. Fine art, which is often sold at open auctions, is completely subjective. Brands, connections, styles, and attitude are all attributes that are bought and sold, and are almost entirely subjective.

Attempting to remove subjectivity from the job application or valuation process is a worthy goal, but has not historically been terribly successful.
Excited About Schnorr Signatures
I hope this is a joke: the std::weak_ptr / std::shared_ptr combo (only non-reference alternative I can think of other than std::optional) can have pretty bad performance implications due to ref-counting atomics in multi-threaded scenarios...

For the use-case of optional pointers that don't have any ownership (and can possibly be updated mid-lifetime) and have a guaranteed external lifetime, what's the alternative?

Are there any other ways of doing this that are guaranteed to have no performance (time or memory) overhead in modern C++ (relying on by-value move semantics isn't ideal) ?

Also, what about std:atomic (CAS) raw pointers - for high-performance / lockless stuff, they can be critical...

This could be a joke. Or not.

It is very much in keeping with the current direction of C++, which appears to be:

"Oh no, C++ cannot keep pace with modern systems languages, let's repair it by whatever means possible"

Their heart is in the right place, but perhaps this accelerated process of mutating the language will ultimately be what kills it.

Personally, after having deep expertise in C++(11/14) I jumped ship to Go and will _never_ look back...

It seems to be a joke, they would have serious problem with backward compatibility with "this" pointer. Also it would limit the use cases for the language, unless they would introduce something like std::raw_ptr, which to be honest would be quite funny.
That's what an IDE is for. I've been programming PHP for over a decade and since I switched to an IDE this became a non-issue for me.
A look at the Moderator - Censorship spectrum [0].

> Imagine a forum / Reddit-style social site that has no owners, no administrators, no entrenched authoritarian moderators. Imagine if the power was shifted back to the individual users, who could hire and fire personal “moderators” (content curators) to best guide discussions in the way that the user found to be valuable.

Personally I still think the StackOverflow notion of moderator elections is the most transparent way of doing it.

It's still not perfect, but I think as far as transparency goes it's the best that I've found.

> Users didn't sign or agree to anything just because they checked a checkbox next to a link to an ever-changing jumble of legalese to get past a screen. This isn't agreement, it's manufactured consent.

What is the difference? I am thinking if a person really actually cared they would have read the legal agreement before checking the checkbox in question and possibly consulted an attorney of their own. I am thinking most users absolutely do not care and agree out-right and immediately to all claims presented by Facebook. How is that not still agreement?
I came to comment on this one as well. I haven't tried it either, but they have a pretty good demo of it running on a Raspberry Pi3, and streaming Spotify onto a BT speaker. It's all hosted in the device (if I understood correctly, this comes with somewhat lower generality than ,say, Google assistant as a trade off, in that you have to define the different "skills" yourslf)
That's not true. I've worked on large applications with frameworks (CodeIgniter, Symfony) and without frameworks (but with composer packages). In the beginning you might spend a little more time on wiring things together, but on a large enough application your framework will always get in the way somehow and you will have to find workarounds.

For large projects, I strongly prefer a frameworkless approach. If you do throwaway apps for an agency, then a framework is probably the better choice.
ESET Smart Security 9 Activation Key 2018 [Valid Till 2020] Full Version
I mod a medium-size (250k subscribers) subreddit.

And... no, we do not have time to give personalized individual hand-holding attention to every single person who can't be bothered to read a simple set of rules linked from our sidebar. We use AutoModerator for a lot, and will be using it even more in the future. It's a very impersonal tool, but in any but the smallest subreddits it's simply not possible to scale up personalized moderation like what you're asking for. At some point you have to show some initiative and read subreddit rules or linked wiki pages/guides/FAQs for yourself rather than relying on the goodwill of volunteer moderators to do it for you.
I guess a serious point is that modern C++ does "deprecate" raw pointers in the sense that their use is discouraged outside of interfacing with external libraries or old C++ code.

But that's more the realm of linters than compiler warnings.

One of the advantages of our mastery of the environment is that we can choose to do things for frivelous reasons. We don't have to protect nature but we want to because it is beautiful and amazing. Just like we don't have to send humans to space, but we really want to.

These are primarily moral questions. The environment and our interactions with it are just too complex to manage in such a mechanistic way.

Follow the paper trail. Find a research topic you are interested in and find an interesting paper on Google Scholar.

Then look up some of the references and referencees or stuff from the same author. Keep doing this one tactic and you'll easily find years worth of reading to do.

Besides finding the abstracts you'll need access to the research. This used to be an issue but luckily now we have sci-hub.tw and paperdownloader.cf

The funniest part of it: All the media hype around the topic is generated... BY DATA collected by NYT/Bloomberg/Techcrunch/you name it.

In my current job I inherited a 7 years old php project that's marked as legacy and scheduled to be phased out in 2020. Until then its mostly maintenance and adaptions to changes in stuff it interacts with.

It's built with php5, uses pretty static file structure, no namespaces but an autoloader. It has around 150 source files. I must say that it was surprisingly easy to get into the code base. The fact that there are no namespaces means class names have been picked carefully, no generic stuff like "dataholder". About half the classes are entirely static and there is still a lot of assoc arrays being passed around while in other places proper classes are used. The front end is just bootstrap with a little bit of additional js and ajax where it makes sense. Still it is really easy navigating the code base and finding the right spot to extend. I hardly ever felt constrained by the project's design, if ever rather by the inconsistencies of php(5) itself. Yes, sometimes it's annoying to implement a dynamic page update via ajax by hand without fancy abstraction, but if you're not building a modern spa it's not that bad and you actually get what's going on.

That other java code base I'm involved with is about 4 years old and really modular and fancy and maven and every time something needs to be added a discussion starts on how to do it, which parts to abstract away in which way, which library or framework might be suited best, and after five trillion years coding might actually start. I might have exaggerated a bit here but that's somehow the feeling I have more and more in modern software development.
There is nothing in C++ 11 and later that is forced on you. Everything that was added is optional. For personal projects I depend on some alternate implementations for things that are now in the STL because these not complete enough for my needs.
> We don't have to protect nature but we want to because it is beautiful and amazing.

Yes, but at what costs? Taking away half the available land and water resources on the planet - which is what they are advocating for - will inevitably have costs associated with the benefits you mention. If those costs are negligible I'm fine with it, if on the other hand we significantly make the lives worse for all human beings for "frievlous reasons" I think we would be right to criticize these views.
Wait, this is far from vanilla PHP, is this not gloryfing "Composer" as the new meta-framework?
If we aren't making the world better for people, what are we doing it for? How can the objective 'make the world better for people' be immoral? Its a zero sum game, every dollar and man-hour spent preserving the Laotian spotted dung beetle could have been spent helping improve the lives of people.

I'm not trying to argue their isn't value in the nature, aesthetically, recreationally, scientifically, etc. but these are points that need to be weighted against the human cost of preservation not 'let them eat cake' platitudes.
Kind of. When everyone is writing articles AGAINST Facebook, it will be very hard to 'sell' article which SUPPORTS Facebook to the editor (because of the potential PR nightmare when potential 4chan starts attacking you)

It also says you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with Facebook (IP License).

This link addresses your concerns by clarifying a prior form of the above mentioned policy: http://legalteamusa.net/tacticalip/2013/02/11/does-facebook-...

I suspect the Facebook IP Policy is a standard blanket of legal compliance if the following is that policy: https://www.facebook.com/help/intellectual_property

In short Facebook can do anything they want with the IP content you provide to them. It also identifies, by example, IP content as media you provide to them. For that material the policy is pretty clear, but what about other material? What about textual content that is typed into Facebook and identified relationships? It seems this information is covered by the same policies and is IP subject to Facebook's use.

My understanding of Facebook policy is also likely dated as their terms change periodically. The current policy is dated at 30 January 2015.
It is pseudo standard in C++.

Meaning ANSI C does not refer at all to inline Assembly, from its point of view it does not exist.

ANSI C++ on other hand, specifies the asm keyword and that it should enable a compiler specific way to write inline Assembly.

But yeah, neither of them actually specifies how it should look.

Unless it cares about its companies long-term prospects abroad.

Look at it this way. China has "every right" to demand its Chinese companies to have backdoors in products (and it has done exactly that). But look what backlash that's creating now against Chinese companies not just from other governments but also from the citizens of those countries.

Also, the US government could have at least maintained the pretense of judicial process (even if it would happen through its own US courts). But it didn't. The law says the executive can ask for data whenever it feels like it.

All sides invariably believe that what they are proposing is in the best interest of humanity.

The environment is tricky because there are so many things that you would ideally not want to put into conflict with one another. Just look at the debate over herbicide use in farming. You have to balance the livelihood of farmers, the health of insects, food supply, human health etc. I don't think there is a single simple answer to that question. That is why it becomes a political and moral question. That is the process that we use for answering difficult contraversial questions. And the solutions inevitably have benefit and costs to different people.
