Can confirm. Was recently informed I was "not a team player" for pointing out obvious facts that happened to be inconvenient. A German friend of mine told me that when she was immigrating here, she took a class that was supposed to help with integrating into American culture, she was told to always wrap any sort of criticism in a complement sandwich.

First, if it worked without intervention it could be used on desktop and mobile OSs, not just servers.

Second, I already mentioned what you suggested.
This is definitely key - one startup I worked for was messing around with live voice capture and processing, voice recognition, etc.. by and large the libraries we had access to that could help do tiny manipulations, cutting, processing of the waveform data was primarily C. We wrote most of our code in C++ because we could directly call C functions and use header files directly.

This was 15 years ago, but I honestly don't know what language I would use today. It's funny but sometimes binary data handling isn't a particular language's strong suit simply because they don't have the primitives to handle it, or if they do, the APIs to handle them are awkward or unnecessarily verbose. It's kinda neat that in C/C++ you can take a 1MB byte buffer and pass it to a function starting at 30% in. In other languages its like you have to pass in the whole thing and another parameter to tell it where to start. I get that's why C/C++ is in the situation it's in (security - but that's why I don't use C/C++ to handle web requests), but sometimes tasks need that.

Armed against the government? Maybe in the past that was true, but not any more, the government has far bigger guns than you ever will. If you got into a true shooting match, they can destroy your house or car from a helicopter miles away, you literally won't even see it coming.
The Oculus Go doesn't have 6 DoF, and he's been working on that and phone-based VR for the last few years. Because they're cheaper, they move a lot more units! And because they're more constrained, they need more optimization attention from someone like Carmack.
Thanks man! Yeah, just sent you an email :)
There is precedent for this, even within D. The DMD compiler was originally written in C, and someone went to the effort to write a C to D transpiler, worked on it until it was flawless, then ran it overnight and did the transition all at once: https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/4923

I think the Go compiler did something similar.

It certainly requires iteration of continuously attempting the translation until it works, and fixing bugs either in the transpiler or in the original codebase. But once everything seems to be in order, you can do the transition all at once.
Actually, even if it is accidental or subconscious, I'd say this is a perfect example of systemic racism--racist behavior (I'm referring to an algorithm/device specifically here, which you can safely call objectively racist) which is normally within society's acceptance level which, when magnified to a societal scale, is no longer acceptable. Another symptom of this illness is that you might not even notice as a member of this system the system is broken if you're white, but you would if you're black.

Personally, I think it could be understandable people didn't consider race when developing facial recognition technology, especially when we've only had mainstream awareness of this for under a decade and many people live in racially homogeneous or dominated cultures. However, I don't think it's acceptable for organizations, and the time when you can safely say you didn't understand biased learning data will be over soon. There are considerations you need to make scaling your tech from personal project to something the public will consume.

Also, the day will come when computers can point out racist stuff better than the average human can now, albeit with a high false positive rate. I say this because it's relatively easy; even if you only count a subset of tweets talking about racism as not trolling, that's still a shockingly high number of meaningful things about the world many people aren't seeing.

> The founder of Dominos pizza built the city of Ave Maria, FL -- It gets high marks in the child safety/friendly category from the local press but feels suburban to me.

That's kind of the point of suburbs - to be more child safe/friendly than the city. It's not a bug, it's a feature. (It may not be a feature that you personally want, though...)
Surely just a coincidence. Given the topic and current events, the chance of this happening randomly is quite high.
I'm white. As I watch the news I can't help but think maybe this isn't such a bad thing. All I see are white people bashing people of color, and other white people standing on the sidelines doing nothing concrete to stop it. [edited for clarity]
Not yet, but the support is coming.
In this case, I'd look into compiling the existing code into .dll/.so files, and just linking between Extended Pascal and ${NEW_LANGUAGE}. Then, convert the code to ${NEW_LANGUAGE} as needed, if needed.

That solution is probably the lowest cost / safest course... Assuming the Extended Pascal compiler they have supports it.

But I suspect choosing D was a fait accompli.
Every time I watch it I'm laughing my ass off. It's definitely not serious, or even satirical.

Most sci-fi has the problem of trying to model a situation with limited social scope. The fact that they never turn out true is because society has social safeguards to prevent it from happening that the writers don't model.

Just tell your new hires here is a book on the language go learn it - which is what I was told at my first Job (world leading RnD).
I'll also note that small, claims court might be able to handle a case over just a few weeks pay. He wouldn't need a lawyer for that. The risk and costs of losing are more manageable. He could send some emails about the pay he lost asking nicely citing the work he did while there. Then firmly. Then, once at a better employer, he can take the case to small, claims court.

I'd actually rather people sue over this to establish some kind of case law where companies' legal teams tell their management to make a default policy of giving the missed pay on demand. There might already be case law on it.
That is some very specific criticism to level with pretty limited evidence. Stripe might be building their own type system, as is Ruby 3.0, but plenty of apps much larger than your provided number operate perfectly.

For the record, I do think typing solves real problems for Ruby. Speaking in terms of pure productivity, it will be helpful to bring in developers who just are not experienced at working without a type system. The downside is I think most of those problems are primarily generated by inexperienced Ruby developers writing non-expressive code. Working on large code bases with Ruby is a very strange and awesome skill. The way you name things and build standards around methods/class creation ends up being a huge positive IMO.
I'm assuming what they mean is something mentioned in the article:

>Depending on the context they can be an ergonomic nice-to-have, but it’s not like you can’t express a program without them.

When talking about turing complete languages, everything is an ergonomic nice-to-have. All language features aspire to be so nice to have, that you come back around and call it a necessity. But you can still express a program without them, unless you strip out so much as to lose turing completeness.
> commenters questioning the benefit of public transit infrastructure in an age of self-driving electric vehicles

Such commenters would also not be living in reality. A few self-driving vehicles deployed as research projects in select areas hardly defines an “age”. We’re just at the start of the path, and until there are millions of these things roaming the streets, they will have no impact on society. People need to get to work today, not in some near future that is still defined in years.
For context, in case anyone has missed it, I imagine this is at least part of why this is being discussed on Reddit under the title in question:

I find the extrapolation a bit extreme. This seems more like a deterrent than a threat. War with China will not be beneficial to the US even if they win. Today's economic connections make actual wars between superpowers quite unlikely.
I don't want to be "that guy" but... why is this news? It's fairly self-evident in our culture. Just look at the way the people who practice these are portrayed in media. (at least when it's set in the west in modern times)

The study itself is valuable, I'm not against testing things that are "obvious". Just that when the culturally accepted result is upheld by the study, it's not generally worth reporting on IMO.
This is good! When combined with closed borders, it means there are more resources to go around for the remaining people!

One of the plans down the line is to create a few views as essentially "widget zoos". These will hopefully serve as illustrative examples as well as locations where the automated screenshot mechanisms can be used to collect pictures of common widget types.

Right now if you get the GUI running by building from the mruby-zest-build repo, then you'll be able to start the interface and it will load up MainWindow.qml as well as child widgets.

Everyone has a 'reason' why Trump was elected, but for some reason people can only see this in a post-hoc fashion. How many people were talking about 'the reason Trump will be elected' before Nov 8th 2016? It's easy to backport your beliefs onto known events, but you really have no basis for believing it to be a better than random predictor of the future.
I'm sorry but I strongly disagree that political policies generally lead to higher or lower birth rates.

Birth rates are largely correlated to the developmental level of a country at a more macro-level.

No, that is racism. It's not burning a cross on someone's lawn racism, but flat out ignoring a large swath of humanity is racism.
Is it me or do headlines like 'The United States Is Pushing Toward War with China' just breeze by without concern for everyone these days.

I mean, if that headline was true and not a breed of click-bait hyperbole with a small nexus of truth that has been extrapolated to justify the headline then we should be terrified.

I see so many crazy things every day I can't help but think this headline must be designed to grab ma clicks.

Full disclosure, I've not really ever read The National and I'm not accusing them of headline drama, but I feel uncomfortable allowing myself to think they are sincere in their headline's content.

I'm not so sure about that. Even though the HN rating system shouldn't be abused to express dis/agreement it often is, and my comment seems to have more upvotes than downvotes so far.

I'm sorry, but saying that as long as your process isn't broken (whatever this means) and your system isn't poorly designed then Rails is maintainable seems to be a pretty weak argument. In a perfect world with perfect, non-changing requirements, no deadlines and understanding clients you can probably make Brainfuck maintainable :)

>> Though yoga and meditation were originally intended as ways to calm the ego, many non-Buddhist practitioners do these activities with an eye to self-improvement or calming personal anxieties.

I have noticed meditation being pitched more and more as a self-help/productivity tool/cure all for a range of issues. Is the main difference between 'traditional' (for lack of a better word) and Western meditation just the motive behind it, or is there something else Westerners are missing?

Patently false and disservice to software engineering.

I am usually new to the business domain, ergo, I start compiling a "Dummy's Guide to [Plant Genetics]" or whatnot. The code and the tools used to work on the problem domain are always changing, but the basics of the business usually are not. My guides help new hires understand why the business does what it does so they can start adding value more quickly.
There is a big difference between ego and narcissism.

Many people have low self-esteem, which means that they are constantly doubting themselves, feeling less worthy than others, feeling destined for failure, feeling too timid to take reasonable risks, etc.

Meditation helps to restore correct ego functioning in humans, creating a balanced perspective where the self can thrive and does not inflict self-harm by allowing impulses of self doubt and fear to hijack a person's productive effort.

The idea that selfless humans are simply humans with very low self esteem is absurd, and this article suggests that the two are equivalent.

Humans who possess the virtuous quality of being good team players and contributors to society are quite likely very good at goal directed behavior and do not wallow in the emotions of self-inferiority and fearfulness that low self-esteem individuals do.

Think about the stereotypical low self esteem douche who goes around insulting others to make himself feel better. That person is not a model of selflessness and virtue. It takes a deep well of inner confidence and belief in the value of one's own worth to be mentally strong and courageous enough to stand up to injustice or ridicule and to make the world a better place.

The issue of self esteem is confounded by millennia of religious dogma that tells people that "selflessness" is virtuous, when in fact quite the opposite is true. Virtue comes from the channeling of one's desire and one's life force toward noble ends, not by suppressing one's confidence and simply letting others (such as religious or political leaders) tell us that we are worthless and that they know what is best for us.

Her estate was estimated to be around $500,000, about a million in today's money. By comparison, her total social security collections were 11,000 dollars.

> Since there is no such thing as the right of some men to vote away the rights of others, and no such thing as the right of the government to seize the property of some men for the unearned benefit of others — the advocates and supporters of the welfare state are morally guilty of robbing their opponents, and the fact that the robbery is legalized makes it morally worse, not better. The victims do not have to add self-inflicted martyrdom to the injury done to them by others; they do not have to let the looters profit doubly, by letting them distribute the money exclusively to the parasites who clamored for it. Whenever the welfare-state laws offer them some small restitution, the victims should take it.

TL;DR: people might as well get back some of the money the government collected from them.

This is actually an interesting subject. There is a Dao "master" who chiefs a temple in California and he wrote his dissertation on how meditation is actually bad for you. I believe he is featured on the "What's this dao all about" podcast but he doesn't go too far into the subject there.

At least you have a good chance of avoiding coercive bullshit in monogamous pair bonds. Whereas almost every single cult that promotes alternatives to monogamous pair bonds somehow ends up being about providing the (usually male) leader with sexual access to some of the (usually female) disciples and then turning the rest of the disciples into personal servants.
I just saw their most recent response, which has ameliorated my concerns. Thanks for bringing my attention to it! Previously it seemed like they might have got unproductively resentful at the backlash, somewhat understandably. All's well that ends well!

People need to understand that the stuff like meditation that's popular right now and gets taught is just a very small subset of Buddhist practice. Real Buddhist teachings go much further. Same for yoga. Yoga is meant to be a way of life but what most Westerners see is just a form of aerobics with a few spiritual words sprinkled in.
