It's still a divide, social attitudes can shape behavior and health just as much.

Honestly, I don't know how to be positive about this. Some people experience events in life that are beyond their control, that shape their attitudes. Those attitudes may be judged by a 'healthy attitude' population as 'unhealthy attitudes'.

This ostracizes a portion of the population and can lead to a negative feedback cycle for an individual, because they literally can't learn how to have a 'healthy attitude'. The best they can do likely, is be neutral (i.e. compromise).

Empathy and awareness are 'healthy' too, even if for the moment, it affects that positive feedback loop you've got in your mind. It's the minutia that don't matter, and when it comes to judgement of attitudes, it's honestly extremely difficult to differentiate between overall trends and insignificant correlative details in practice.

The person with the 'unhealthy attitude' may just be wearing a mask of someone they were heavily influenced by, and they may simply not have the resources or the 'luck' to have encountered learning otherwise. All of this can be incredibly draining and isn't your duty or obligation to 'correct', but I think that's where acceptance and tolerance come in.

My point is not everyone has to have the same style mind in order to be considered 'healthy'. People can survive (quite contently) without constantly thinking positive and having to outwardly serve as proxies to reinforce attitudes so we can all convince ourselves 'we are happy and healthy and the future will be swell'. You need all types of people in life to have the world function and improve.

Honestly sometimes I think some people can become terrified to be anything besides positive, and that limits their freedom of speech and ability to grow.
To be fair, you can turn that stuff off. But most people probably don't understand that it's doing that, so they don't even think of it.

There is - the material is silicon and related materials and all those things you mentioned are built with and made possible by advancements in silicon technologies. There's an IBM article on the front of this very site detailing how they are creating artificial neutrals from silicon for AI.

What creates hostility is the sentiment of being forced to use a bad language. There are many alternatives to python or php but none really to javascript (transpilers hacks apart). Webassembly might change that.

The only other language that I have seen generating as much hostility is vb6, and also I believe because some developpers found themselves forced to use it.

Careful that you are conflating scripting and interpreted.

Mostly we think of scripting as "interpreted and dynamically typed", but it's just an habit with no base.

Notice that interpreted and dynamically typed are two independent properties.
I would define a script as a program for automating tasks otherwise performed by a person. A scripting language such as Bash is primarily used to automate tasks which a user would otherwise manually perform on a shell.

I would say that JavaScript is not a scripting language, nor did it begin as a scripting language, as its main use case has always been in providing interactivity to users, not in automating the tasks conventionally performed by users.
Like a sibling comment says, in the 2010s videogames have "gone Hollywood". My perspective is similar to what you say, but actually in the opposite direction: I think videogames in the 90s experimented more and were less focused in graphics, even though of course there were very technical programmers like Carmack. In the 2010s, videogames seemed to think graphics were the most important improvement; but even worse, every game designer thought of himself as an amateur movie director. Unfortunately, most game designers would make terrible directors. I'm going to single out David Cage of Quantic Dream as someone who writes embarrassingly bad plots for his videogames (Indigo Prophecy, Heavy Rain), and actually calls himself a "director".

The problem with "games as movies" is that most games tell a story that would feel amateurish or childish if told as a movie. But also, as one piece in the Atlantic controversially argued [0], games are a different medium than movies; trying to "tell a story" with a game, in the traditional sense, is failing to take advantage of the medium.

Best comment so far
I'm confused as to why you're addressing this commenter using "argument from authority" when you seem to be weakening your position, suggesting that studying protein dynamics has led to significant advances in the field. It doesn't change the fact that you made a flippant remark that a team of some of the most experienced drug discovery scientists in the industry are wasting their time using this approach (despite not having worked in drug discovery, i.e. not an expert in the field), instead of just explaining why you believe this. Didn't mean to make it personal, that's just how I interpret your comment.

The way I've understood it is that proprietary kernel modules contain an opensource part that is included in the kernel which makes a small stable API available which is then used by the proprietary kernel modules.

I don't think that's fair. With 3 devices you're perfectly ok. Or even with only 2, if you also use a "key box" (gives you one "device" more at the cost of having to remember a password).
What part of ‘acceptable’ is unacceptable to you then?
I’m going to assume you are talking about retail since you describe card-present transactions.

Retail is hard. Surprisingly genuinely hard. When you have hundreds or thousands of outlets, some of them are special, you have wacky hardware, stuff is potentially updated over WAN, you often have a varied hardware fleet, retraining hundreds or thousands of operators is damn near impossible, your stuff was stuck together with sticky tape in the first place and meanwhile the customer is in the reps face tapping their feet or walking out on a sale because “the new system is acting up”.

There are a lot of orgs eating a ton of risk on the retail end just because the problem is so messy and expensive to fix.
I can't find it now, but I seem to remember a study that showed that boys dominated both ends of the "bell curve" when it came to academic achievement: the top achievers were boys, but the lowest performers were, too. The author here doesn't seem to be particularly interested in averages, which would make for a fairer comparison.
tl;dr, over the course of 1,000 years clans fought themselves over resources and only a few families/males survived.

> [...] small-ish creative studios could compete. Games were popular enough to make it profitable for studios to make them yet not too mainstream to dumb them down for the lowest common denominator.

I would venture that Ninja Theory with "Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice" fulfills this - they're were[1] a small studio with a game you can't really call dumbed down and it was a profitable game with a relatively small budget (<$10M).

Objections against javascript are not Luddite objections against all types of higher level abstractions; the complaint is that javascript is not suitable for the creation of complex high quality software. If you beat your head against the javascript walls long enough can get something to work eventually, but that's not much of an endorsement.

The only thing javascript has going for it is the delivery mechanism, and that is what makes it so compelling for business use. But this is not because javascript is so good, it's that the other methods of packaging/delivering software are so painful.

The total absence of high quality software written in javascript is sufficient evidence to conclude that javascript is not a tool suitable for serious application development.

I wonder if they are using TypeScript.

The old Javascript were very bad, recent Javascripts were bad, today's Javascript are OK, future Javascript / TypeScript is actually pretty decent.

Agreed. Just look at franchises that were around in the 1990s and compare them to their 2010s counterparts. Almost none of them look good in comparison to their antecedents.

Deus Ex -- You play as a cybernetic anti-terrorist operative in a prosaic and cynical vision of the future fueled entirely by the conspiracies of the mid-90s BBS scene. The world is complex, coherent, and fleshed out. You have the illusion that your choices matter.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution -- You play as a super bad-ass private security in a neo-Renaissance world populated fueled by the hyperbole surrounding transhumanism. The developers deliberately make it less complex compared to the original for the sake of streamlining, use banal pop culture for their "inspirations," and intentionally design the game so that player choices are irrelevant. [0] It can be boiled down to "We want to make a western Metal Gear Solid."

I'll just grab a quote from a random Fallout 3 retrospective here -- "[...] Fallout 1 and 2 were defined by complex storylines, detailed characters and far-reaching consequences to the player's actions. And that these elements are less prominent in FO3, while faster action and stunning visuals have been brought to the forefront." [1]

Or a Thief (2014) review: "The three major strengths of past Thief titles - wide open mission design, sound propagation and narrative - are this game’s biggest weaknesses. That is a fundamental problem it cannot hope to overcome." [3]

Video games "matured" in the sense that they became more like movies interspersed with interactive segments, but the notion that that made them more artistic is pretty unfounded.

Have you ever used a language like Elixir? After using Elixir, my first thought was "why the f would anyone even use JS in 2018?" That's how poor the design choices of JavaScript are. Not to mention that the name itself is trademarked by the biggest troll (Oracle corporation).

After using something like Elixir, you'll even wish if Javascript could be permanently banned from the Software industry for ever.

I use Elixir + Ruby + Coffeescript and I still wish JS was never invented.

This would be suicide for Office. I struggle to believe that Microsoft is replacing the full Windows desktop version of Office with a version rewritten in JS. It makes no sense. Many, many, many businesses absolutely rely on the features you're mentioning, and many others that would be a tremendous undertaking to re-implement. There has to be something that's not being communicated right here. Maybe they mean the "lite" versions of the programs.
As someone who was doing enormous amounts of CPU-bound raytracing at the time, I wanted it. But quite honestly the product sounds absolutely incredible even without workloads like that - to read the article, it worked perfectly well as a graphics card, with the added bonus that 1) the graphics code was in software, meaning you could arbitrarily upgrade the graphics model to support later software, and 2) the system also ran general purpose loads, simultaneously.

> Can I ask, what does "assets get wasted if they don't get comsumed" mean?

I think the parent poster means this: that because each "scene" in an AAA game cost a lot to produce, they want every player to experience it. If it was entirely optional, then some players would miss it, and then how can you explain to them why the game was so expensive? So they must see scene; in order to ensure this, the game becomes more linear and with fewer optional missions/situations/paths.

Think of it as a big budget movie: they filmed the action-oriented, CGI-ladden scene, so they want you to watch it.
I implemented publicly-verifiable macaroons as a PoC and found them reasonably ergonomic: https://github.com/ecordell/watchstander

The basic idea is what you described: append only asymmetrically verifiable signatures.

As with most things Macaroons, the harder part is developing a caveat language and verifiers that actually meet your needs. And convincing people that they're a good idea.

He's talking about you when he mentions the sectarians. I'm not sure of what the original Russian word was, but I assume it was meant to cover militants of any kind, those of strong belief. Marta Hillers makes a similar point about the mass rape which the Russian soldiers engaged in when they conquered eastern Germany. From what she saw, all Russian soldiers engaged in rape, except for the militant Communists, who felt that such actions were immoral and would bring lasting shame on Communism. People of strong belief are rare. Martin Luther said that only one man in ten was a true Christian, and most modern sociology has tended to agree that only 10% to 15% of the public has the kind of strong beliefs that continue to guide behavior during adverse circumstances.
