To clarify, Linux is fault tolerant where it needs to be: keeping userspace faults contained.

And what happens when a core module that is part of BEAM starts overwriting critical BEAM VM data structures?

A more apt comparison would be software running on top of BEAM vs. a userspace process running on top of Linux.
I've been using mobx-state-tree for the latest couple of projects after Redux. I like them both, but I prefer mobx-state-tree for a handful of reasons.

1.) There is an immutable data store with action-driven changelog, just like Redux.

2.) The immutability of the data store is baked in and enforced. The necessity to provide changes to the data store within an action is baked in and enforced.

3.) Having actions baked in as methods rather than having to create "action creators which in turn dispatch actions" is a nice reduction in boilerplate.

4.) Being able to add action listeners AND state listeners are baked in, and can be done at any level of the state's depth. To watch state changes in redux, for global changes not related to a particular component, I had to write:
https://github.com/ralusek/redux-store-watch

5.) Mobx's observers on react render methods makes the renders far more efficient than what could be achieved with react-redux easily, without really ensuring that the props being passed in are as granular as necessary or shouldComponentUpdate is correctly identifying state changes. In mobx, the most granular access of the lowest level state can be detected within a render method, and only when that very specific value is replaced is the component rendered.

6.) Computed values on mobx-state-tree are baked in without the need for something like reselect

I like Redux, I enjoy working on projects that use it, but I think that I think I'd have to admit that I prefer mobx-state-tree.

Some even blunter unsolicited feedback: test your website with about:config javascript.enabled = false. thinkxl has the right idea here. Edit: also, I just realized I'm agreeing with a social justice warrior about something; I'm not sure whether to feel disgust or vindication; I'll probably go with novelty.
It's hard to abandon the old idea, when the new idea, I mean, it's there, everywhere and nowhere at the same time, if you don't look, isn't particularly convincing, and the retort that it doesn't need to be convincing if you (read: I) just aren't smart enough, because it's counterintuitive, then I have a counterintuitive disregard for your cleverness.

I have to concede, though, that "empty" is not a particularly meaningful physical concept, quite the opposite. Disregarding the Aether theory, only to replace it with fields of potentials, that is kind of running in circles.

A model is fundamentally wrong. That's what it means to have a model. At that "clouds" is no more helpful then "empty". The fact of the matter is that no one has ever seen these things, no nucleus, no electrons, as far as I know.

Yet, you haven't pointed out what was actually wrong with "Those are simply the electron orbitals which describe the probability of finding the respective election at a given point".

Edit: Perhaps you intended to imply that this description is overly idealized (not to say simple).

The rising labor force participation of women has been a major factor in total productivity growth. If we had continued to pursue male domination, for example, we'd have a lot fewer doctors. (Or a lot fewer of something else valuable.) And there's still a lot more to be gained.

> I think this is nonsense and should be called out when it comes up.

Don't be such a cultural imperialist.

You think you're "doing the right thing" -- but isn't it "wrong" to assume your culture's current (in flux) definition of culturally "progressive" values is actually a moral right?

Come to China and see what things are like. Then maybe you can feel entitled to dictate what to call out.

You think your culture is morally supremacist, but are you so sure you are so right? Maybe your way is not the only "right" way -- maybe you can learn from other cultures. But you don't be open to doing that while you are so sure of your own moral supremacism. And being so certain, so full of passionate intensity of your own righteousness -- well that's just likely to make you less open to correction and learning, and more likely to be wrong, isn't it?

If your culture is so adept at "equality" (even "gender equality") then why are your genders ( races / politics ) so divided? In light of the actual state of things, rather than how you prefer to see them ( through a culturally imperialist lens of your own moral supremacism ) -- isn't it more likely that divisions have been artificially and deliberately inflamed, to keep you all fighting each other, to distract you from placing the blame on those in power? To make you all easier to control, in other words.

The best slaves are the ones who think they are free. "Progressive liberal values" has been a great way to divide people into groups to better distract and control them, and get them to channel their (perhaps otherwise constructively directed) emotions, into useless vitriol and conflict. Also stressed out combat-mode people purchase more, and think less about it. So, a harmful way to bolster consumer economy.

Also it's incorrect to say "gender equality" is not an issue "in Asia". It's just you don't understand how it is. In China, Mao made women and men equal before feminism "liberated" Western women.

But of course, "the West got there first" and better -- Oldest fake narrative in the book, buddy.

The data is already centralized in a "data lake" or data warehouse largely because a lot of data is desired by R&D driven data science teams to produce recommendations and personalizations.

In general, borrowing money is useful and rational in many types of business growth. VC is correct in the situation where there are “winner-take-most” dynamics and where investment today creates a long-duration profit stream. Things like Facebook are perfect for VC - it’s useful to keep the site ad-free in the beginning to gain as many users as possible, and once you have all of them and nobody can enter your market, you ratchet up the ads. VC is what pays for everything in the interim.
> cheap, slow boards from China

I've bought about a dozen chinese prototype PCBs for $0.20 a board and experienced 6 days from order to arrival at my door (using $19 shipping). These are tested boards with 6 mil features up to 100x100 mm. And I've done the board designs using their free online editor. This has been mind-blowing.

Disposable Kali Linux Docker container with X support
Ah, well there is no system ever that will solve that problem. Blockchains are simply systems that allow for the (as much as possible) trustless formation of consensus. So as soon as you have fraudulence data entering your system you know exactly where it came from and also that everyone is relying on the same data. This removes the need for everyone to double check everything multiple times.

I am involved in commodity trade finance (the financing of supply chain) and the current process is basically a huge number of different companies all checking the same data (documents & contracts). The banks actually check these documents multiple times (4 eyes principle).

You can build an API around a mysql database that does the checking. But no company would trust your checking for compliance, legal and trust reasons. If you offer them a full node (piece of software that doesn't trust all data thrown at it) in a blockchain system that they can run on their own infra it's a different story.
Yeah, within startup realm, his insights are killer. Outside not so much.
> American startups are at least more tacit about it. Young, attractive women are heavily favored as recruiters and office managers.

Yeah, I did a group interview at a San Diego startup that was like that. 90% of the developers were male, but 90% of the recruiters were young, attractive women with no background in tech. We didn't meet them face-to-face until we'd been flown out to San Diego, so it wasn't even about piquing people's interest to get them to the interview. Best I can figure is "male nerds are more likely to accept our laughably low salary offer if they think they might get to be near cute girls." It was really creepy.

When China is the dominant economic superpower I doubt they will care much about abandoning the rural United States.
I don’t really buy that argument. Google have been impossible to reach when they decided you were bad for their business and this cut you off from their services since the beginning of their company.

So have most companies you interact with. Yet these companies are doing better than fine. They are doing extremely well.

We live in a world where great content services such as GitHub are bleeding money and I think you should keep that in mind when you talk about what is “good business”. I understand the feeling of unfairness, but if you zoom out to the bigger picture, then it often doesn’t matter that much. YouTube is the one of the few profitable content hosting networks of a massive scale.

Maybe part of the reason they are profitable is because they don’t waste too many resources on people who aren’t making them money?

> Why is Australian public transit so much better than American public transit?

I would guess it's because Australia is, like, 99% uninhabited and uninhabitable or borderline uninhabitable[1], which probably means they can focus resources almost exclusively on the few densely populated areas. Additionally Australia's urban population seems to be significantly higher than America's (~89% vs ~80% according to 5 seconds of Googling I just did) so there's probably greater political will for investing in urban areas, and that political will probably also isn't resisted/sabotaged by an electoral system that grants hugely disproportionate representation to non-urban areas that have little to gain from realistic/economically sensible investments in public transportation.

It's true that in the socialist era, Mao and others really pushed for progress in gender equality. To their great credit! But beginning with pro-market reforms, a lot of that progress has been lost:

https://cpianalysis.org/2017/10/23/the-struggle-for-gender-e...

I also think the rest of your critique doesn't really hold together. You seem to be playing both sides of your ambivalence on gender equality. And for somebody opposed to one culture criticizing another, you seem awfully willing to be very vigorous in criticizing another culture.
The SAT has a writing section - there is no reason you can't write code on a standardized test.

The idea is to assign low points to people who write a long function, and high points to people who write many small, self-documenting functions. Such an exam could also ask questions like "what is the cyclometric complexity of the following code?", which while not an indicator that the test taker will always write low-complexity code in a professional environment, at least indicates that the test taker is aware of maintainability metrics like cyclometric complexity - much more than can be said of programmers who mindlessly turn in 400 line functions with deeply nested conditionals.

Whereas today in the "progressive" West it is still expected that women change their last name to their husband's and most do.

> As a simple example look at the difference in the character horse between the two character systems.

If you are a foreign learner just looking at typeset ways of representing this character, then the difference may seem great between traditional and simplified. But in fact, the rapid way of writing 'horse' before the script reform, is where the simplified form was eventually taken from.

> The strokes are still suggested if not perfectly expressed.

No, rapid writing often drastically limits the number of strokes. I’m sorry, but I must question your experience with Chinese, because all this is covered in any reasonable introduction to the script reform.

Even Wikipedia's article [1] is pretty clear on this: "Character forms that have existed for thousands of years alongside regular, more complicated forms ... Some simplifications were based on popular cursive forms embodying graphic or phonetic simplifications of the traditional forms."

This is why Taiwanese and Hong Kong readers, though they may find mainland China’s system culturally alien, do not generally consider it a barrier to understanding.

Isn't this exactly the problem that EV certificates solve? By going the extra mile to validate identity instead of just trusting DNS ownership?

Not that there's an easy way for LE to validate identity automatically - governments need to do a better job of providing electronic/smart identification, in which case a physical chip ID serves as a second factor (alongside DNS ownership) for automatic EV certs - but the weaknesses of only having DNS ownership are pretty much why EV certs exist.
