Logo design and acceptance (by the ones commissioning it) is a strange thing, in my experience. This new logo looks like a gas/fuel station logo or a racing logo. I can't imagine it being dissociated with these categories. The older gopher one, though kinda whimsical, was nicer, cuter and amenable to be modified to indicate different things in different contexts. This new logo is static and is the opposite of the old one in many ways.

New logo designs, of things that have been around for sometime, invite derision and ridicule (and for good measure). Getting used to such decisions will take time.
And there are several billion stories of wages not making people rich.

Beware the availability bias here. Nobody tells their story of working for salary all their life and not getting rich because that's not newsworthy. It is news when people work at a promising startup for equity, but it fails. So people fall victim to the bias of thinking there's more of a problem with equity than wages, because that's the failure case they hear about more often.

The risk of not getting rich from wages is 99.9% (number of 9s depending on your definition of rich). The risk of not getting rich from equity in a series of promising startups over a career, can be less than 50%.
English is not my first language, so forgive my asking, but isn’t that sort of uncomfortable to use? Looking at the examples given, they’re all PA announcements or something similarly detatched. It also seems easy to confuse with the plural. What’s the point of decreasing the clarity and utility of language for the sake of a percent of a percent who might be bothered?

> MATE, on the other hand, was/is fantastic. GNOME 2 already was just about perfect for me, and though I was willing to give Unity a try, I was disappointed that it was so different from GNOME. MATE filled that void in my heart like no other DE could.

I'm a MATE user presently, and I have to agree with this. It does what I need with minimal BS. Unity, in particular, felt to me like a Linux DE trying to be OS X, but not really succeeding at it. (I'm not particular fond of OS X, either; I don't really don't care for the single-menu-at-the-top paradigm and the icon dock on the side never seemed to really work right.)

But hey, it's Linux. IDK about Ubuntu these days, but in Gentoo (what I use presently), you can pretty much run whatever DE you want. If people want OS X-ish, that's their choice.

I see that "Brand Guide" as style over substance personified:

> Roboto is a contemporary sans serif typeface designed for readability.

That's an oxymoron: "sans serif typeface designed for readability".

Thin sans serif body text is how you show you hate your reader's eyes.

And they didn't even run a damn spell-checker over the thing:

It's because branding is so dashed hard. And because it must capture the soul of the product. Its raison d'etre. That makes it so easy to miss the mark. It's only allotted 100ms of human response time to make a user fall in love.

And I do believe this rebrand is a miss. Nothing about it communicates Go's unique personality. Or deep tradition.

Compare to the incomparable Paula Scher's work at Pentagram. I'll single out the rebrand for MIT Media Lab. About as good as it gets. Mapping perfectly to the myriad bespoke research programs in everything from "affective computing" to "soft robots":

Still a bit more verbose than Python. What would you gain by doing the same in Swift actually? If you have to type more code to do some experiments, and still have to import Python libraries for extra functions as they do in that example, what's the selling point? (beside it being cool)

You can use the chat site, message them directly (if their contact information is listed) or anything else you like to help someone with a useless/duplicate/beginner/help-vampire-ey question. You just aren't allowed to do it inside the reputation system to mine these kinds of answers for karma, and aren't allowed to do it inside the wiki system so you don't pollute the results of searches.
It's exactly what was asked for. There's no profit margin, yet they were the first in the world to come up with a vaccine. Sounds like a good example of innovation to me?
> As a society, we should probably be targeting more like 10% for 4-year degrees and higher.

You may correct regarding education and how it relates to marketable skills. However, a good tertiary education is so much more than that. It also teaches (ideally) the ability to think critically that is the foundation of an advanced society - especially a democracy.

That said, higher education costs spiraling out of control have corrupted the entire system. There is a solution though, I'm certain of it.

What dark patterns do they use, exactly? I've been avoiding the iOS 11.3 update for a while now since I'm waiting for saurik to release his jailbreak, and iOS alerts me about 11.3 maybe once a week at most. It pops up a dialog box saying there's a new iOS version, and gives me the option to install now, install later, or defer the decision until the next alert in a week or two. The buttons are clear and meaningful and they don't appear designed to prioritise one option over another.

As for phones slowing down as time goes by, no shit - they're hardly likely to get faster as iOS becomes more complex, but Apple goes to extreme lengths to support older phones in a way that no Android phone manufacturer - including Google itself - even comes close to.

Personally I think it's ridiculous that Apple doesn't at the very least allow developers (i.e., people who have paid the $99 yearly fee) to downgrade their devices to a previous iOS version, but I don't think they're trying to "trick" anyone.
Flux.jl is backend agnostic, so it has a pure Julia (with GPU code generation) and in progress ONNX and tensorflowjs export capabilities .

And then once Julia can reliably compile to web assembly (already being worked on), your entire app (front, back and ML ) will work in the browser.

Unfortunately no, but I retry them every three or four months to see if they will.

Clip Studio is close - really close, but color selection doesn't work and touch controls are messed up (especially with the stylus eraser). Touch support in Linux in general is awful, even with apps that I expect better of like Firefox or MyPaint, but it's almost good enough that I could tolerate it and switch anyway.

I'm semi-hopeful that it'll cross that line in a year or two, and especially hopeful that the work Purism is doing on the Librem Phone might speed that process up.

I honestly haven't tried to run a VM, I just assumed it would eat up battery too much to be useful - and since I use the tablet specifically for these apps, I'd have to spend all of my time in the VM anyway, which doesn't seem like much of an improvement :)
The issue with that is that it will seem to work. You know what a treatment costs, and if you mandate every treatment is through a non-profit, all your treatments will be lost cost. However, you do not know about the treatments that you are missing out on because you did not provide enough incentive for them to be discovered and tested. Thus, you will be blissfully ignorant.

Another way to look at this, is the prior to discovery, a treatment for a disease is infinitely costly. No matter how much money you have available to spend, you can't get your disease cured. After discovery, even at the cost of a million dollars per treatment, the cost of the treatment is infinitely less.
Good point, and makes it less likely LEAs just sent in the DNA the 'regular' way ...

There's a long history of slightly or outright irreverent logos in the hacker community and you're on a forum that at the very least pays homage to that culture.

The most important takeaway from this article is that knowing how to flirt IRL is a bigger competitive advantage than ever.
I am not entirely convinced. In particular, the results shown in Fig 7 remind me of the BEGAN paper which was similarly hyped. But I'll defer further judgment until I read through it more and maybe run some experiments.
Phone number/email verification is also still centralized as no one has worked out any other way.
Increasing returns to scale isn't the only way unit costs can go down. Competitive forces typically incentivize companies to come up with new ways to increase productivity and reduce cost. Having even one competitor is enough to meaningfully reshape the incentives of a monopolist. But you may well be right about the negative utility of having 4 vs 3 companies in this particular industry.
Frankly, resilience is necessity. The better you are, the more you are eclipsing the others, the stronger averse reaction you get everywhere. People could be your best friends until you escape their crab bucket, then you are suddenly a well-known enemy and rumors start spreading. I am no longer going out of my way to help those people; I believe they deserve where they are as they chose to stay in the bucket of their own loathing. But I am not going to be nasty to them at all. Their kids still have potential, so those are treated without indifference.

Interest rates fell for what, 40 years, creating the great bond bull market? Things can tend to trend, not happen all at once and discretely. Maybe that means the market was horribly horribly wrong for 40 years, I dont know.
That argument doesn't really hold water when applied to aircraft manufacturing.

Commercial jets are not indistinguishable commodities, there is a ton of variation in design and mission ideologies (control systems, materials, hub-and-spoke vs point-to-point, etc.)

The type of goods and barriers to entry are more similar to e.g. car manufacturing than to utilities like ISPs.

If Boeing and Airbus weren't artificially inflating administrative barriers to entry we'd definitely have more competition, and consumers would benefit, not suffer.
Not really...

> No one knows anything about a user on Stack Overflow unless they explicitly announce it

StackOverflow has names and profile pictures. Users can choose not to have their own photo or name but some do and provides some identifiability. Though I agree about your general point that the primary and most obvious issue is with new users feeling less welcome than specific groups of people.
If you are in a few group chats long polling is pretty efficient as there is almost always new content before the request times out.

> How would it work in terms of replacing Medicare and covering high-ticket medical procedures?

Medicare is an insurance system. In principle if you gave the average person the equivalent amount of money it should be enough to buy health insurance with.

If that isn't true in practice it's a failure of healthcare/insurance laws rather than the UBI.

Austrian economists don't see this leadership as monopolistic. Instead, they rather call monopoly when there are state apparatus being used to restrict competition.

Basically, there is no evil doing in being a leader.
This is clearly not the case for Boeing and Airbus because both have ties with military and state actors, but maybe in a free-market scenario it wouldn't be so different to what we have today.

I've just been listening to Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast and it's amazing. I'm listening to Blueprint for Armageddon, which is a 6 part series (3+ hours each!) About the First Works War and it's fascinating and horrifying.

This post has a lot of points that are true.

But have you ever noticed how the only good app built using electron that people can point to is Visual Studio Code?
It's trivial to replicate even very small amounts of DNA. They don't actually need very much DNA, they just ask for that much to ensure it will work.
Reproducible builds are what nix is good at. Synapse is already well packaged, but Riot has the problem of using electron, which was never fully packaged on `nixpkgs`. Maybe someone with the right skills will be willing to do that. Bonus: vscode and others get better support on nix.

Anything you can make HTTP requests in really. I have messed around with sending messages from Ruby and Bash and it's quite easy. And a lot more easy if there is an SDK for your language which will handle a few things for you.
English is my first language, and I think it sounds fine:

> A CEO ... . Like it or not, their job is to protect the company, not the users.

It wouldn't sound as correct if the subject was a specific person. In that case the gender-specific pronoun would be better.

> Marissa Mayer, as CEO ... . Like it or not, her job is to protect the company, not the users.

Even so, use of 'their' in the latter example would still be acceptable, if a little odd, because it's referring more to the role than the person (I think).

[edit] for what it's worth, I think you're overwhelming underestimating the percentage of people who think more gender-inclusive language is a useful thing.

That said, I didn't suggest the option because I was trying to make that point, I suggested it because the parent was dealing with a situation (unsure of gender of the CEO) where use of the singular they is really effective.
Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!

gophers 4eva, I refuse the new logo.
I'm surprised they are being so public about this (they could have downplayed it, even if they didn't go full parallel construction.)

This will potentially cause people to be less willing to use sites like this, and this could have long-term negative public health impact. Plus, it hurts the commercial businesses.

(My DNA is on record with DOD for personnel recovery purposes, as are most military/contractor personnel of the past 15 years or so, but I'm not sure how the actual database works. I suspect in reality it means China, Russia, Israel, and any other competent infosec adversary also has a full copy of this database.)
Fair enough. Then I would say that when "I" said, "Maybe for some. I never watch anything on it," "I" had already acknowledged that not everyone saw things the same way as "me."

Again - I bet you that most people care about the shipping and nothing else. That is an important fact when considering the value prime offers.
I’m not even sure what to say to that.

Other people assuming you are like them and treating you the SAME as they would treat all the other SO members is literally the outcome we want isn’t it? We’re being treated equally.

But now people are being offended because they aren’t being treated differently based on information the other parties don’t have?

What?
Equities return, on average, 7% in real terms. Meaning they are good investments in inflationary times.

Another way to look at it is inflation means the dollar is worth less, not other things that are not pegged to the dollar.
This is interesting to me. I have more than a peripheral interest in art and design, but my day job is heavy systems programming using Go/Scala and the like. I think there is a huge market advantage to correctly branding stuff developers use. For me this is, excuse the hyperbole, almost objectively a terrible rebranding of Go. The Gopher, while not currently wholely representative of what Go has become...is iconic and a lovely homage to the playfulness and irreverency of hacker culture. What an opportunity to update and infuse the brand with how the language has developed. I love what other people are doing with the gopher (like the the dep packager).

On top of this, I can't get over the fact that the design team can't draw. What? How much are you guys getting paid?
The events around the founding of America brought together a group of people of staggering intellect and morality, definitely unrivaled. (Although their efforts ultimately failed, as predicted by one of them.)
It's not a very good abstraction, because (as previously mentioned) it depends on global variables to manage shared resources (e.g., connection pools) and even request state. Hence "obscure".

It would be much cleaner to just define a handler type with the signature: `def handler(r: http.Request) -> http.Response`. Those handlers could be passed to routers (which themselves could be handlers), for example (not tested):

class Route(typing.NamedTuple):
path: typing.re.Pattern
method: str
handler: http.Handler

class Router:
def __init__(self, routes: typing.List[Route]) -> None:
self.routes = routes

def serve_http(self, r: http.Request) -> http.Response:
"""serve_http implements the http.Handler interface"""
for route in self.routes:
if route.path.matches(r.path):
return route.handler(r)
return http.NotFound("404 NOT FOUND")

Note that since handlers are just functions, they can also be methods with object-level state. They needn't depend on global state at all, for example, notice how the following routes don't depend on the connection pool (or the request state) to be global:

class Server(typing.NamedTuple):
db: DBConnPool

def first_route(self, r: http.Request) -> http.Response:
"""first_route uses shared `db` resource."""
pass

def second_route(self, r: http.Request) -> http.Response:
"""second_route uses shared `db` resource too!"""
pass
