Whoever you are, analogies can help clarify your thinking. A type system that prevents some errors is not without value just because it cannot catch others. If the uncaught types of errors are rare and the type system that would solve them somehow burdensome it may even be a reasonable compromise to accept these faults.

One important thing to note: performance-wise, both in front-end when used with apollo, and in backend (you need to handle nested queries smartly) a good implementation of a REST api would probably be faster / lighter, but it should be largely enough for any web-app / web-service used by human beings ;)
I'm not sure. "Decent tech" failed because it wasn't made available on different architectures in a decent form. Then one architecture took off, and left Tex behind (DOS/Windows). There was another in an area where typesetting mattered (Mac OS X) and that one, too, did not have "Decent tech" support. Even though the open source movement probably put in way more total effort in screen readers and typesetters than Adobe ever did into Pdf ... there was never a coherent strategy, and everybody did what this article tries to advocate :

let's make one tex distro that's a bit better at screen reading. One that's a bit better at math typesetting. One that can also contain C programs, along with text. One that has graphs.

Let's all make them with zero integration and each of them only working on one distro, one platform (because that one's the best).

Despite what this article claims, nobody ever tried to do the minimum necessary to make the suggested solutions succeed. Instead, there was infighting and perfectionism in tiny details with zero care for the global picture.

This is the issue with academici. Call it "depth first" development vs "breadth first" development. If you want large scale uptake, commercials success and usefullness for many people, obviously the correct strategy is breath first : well-supported few-problems many-usecase easy-to-use kinda-basic software. Then, over a LOT of time, make it less basic.

The way to succeed in academici is to go depth first. Make the state of the art neural network for distinguishing left-handed pomeranians from mostly-left-but-sometimes-abidextrous pomeranians by 0.005% ? Guaranteed publication ! 20 followup papers ! Great hero ! Speaker invites across the globe ! Who's ever going to use it ? Let's nod politely and say "many other academici".

tl;dr: As of June 2017, 64% of American households had Amazon Prime. 43% of all American dollars spent online are spent at Amazon.
I actually got my GTX 1080 there a couple years back. It was the only place that actually had them in stock and was the same price as online.
Not a structural engineering expert, but beyond a certain depth for tunnels (depending on soil type I believe) there isn't a structural risk to buildings above, especially at the tunnel diameter sizes suggested by Boring co.

With airspace you have several problems - noise, collisions, crashing on whatever is below.

Having said that, I think we'd all love a safe, electric VTOL vehicle. I don't think they would be allowed in densely populated areas though, same as drones above a certain weight.
It's somewhat important to note that this is the only Maya city with an urban grid. The city of Teotihuacan, as pointed out in the article, was much bigger and also had a planned urban grid system. It also was founded several centuries later.

Python (Django) support is good (appart from subscription), but not as out of the box as NodeJS indeed
For a POSIX regex, the correct way to match a hex digit is to use is [[:xdigit:]].
Best Buy price matches Amazon (for the most part) and if I have to pay tax I might as well get what I want today, vs in two days. And if it sucks I can return it to the store.
I'm not sure if anything has changed there. Huge bulky items have always been delivered from a warehouse ~days later. Online hasn't changed anything with that, I don't think. Sure, sometimes you'll get lucky with a popular model they keep a few of in-store, but that feels like the exception.

You can't go to a mattress store and walk out with a mattress either, generally.
Review: A Counterfeit, $100 iPhone X
Not really, a language in which some type errors are impossible (rather than merely very unlikely) makes it drastically easier to prove something useful about programs (e.g. to optimize away runtime checks that would otherwise be needed as a safety net and impossible cases).
The flip side of this is that they charge $50 more than Apple for an iPhone. Why make all your customers demand a price match for something so widely known? It seems like it would irk most people in the hopes of extracting a few bucks from a handful of folks.
The effective tax rate in the 1950's isn't that much different than it is now.[1] The tax code back then had some very generous deductions, so people rarely paid the 90% marginal rates.

Is it common yet for public-facing APIs to be implemented with GraphQL? Is it feasible if you're trying to make it accessible and easy to use for casual developers?
I recommend buying used on AbeBooks. You can find what you want in pretty good quality for cheap and will have no trouble accepting a couple of dings.
What exactly would the EU be spending that money on? Where does this kind of punitive fine revenue go into? Is it the general slush fund, or is it earmarked for some purpose?
You can absolutely tax net worth. It's not difficult at all.

You can add/increase property taxes. You can tax wealth above a certain amount. You can add/increase taxes on stock market speculation and holdings, and other financial instruments.

Whether you'd want to is a different matter, but saying you can't do it is factually incorrect.
Surely all these APIs do not demand client certs right? In the case of Kubernetes, a typical server cert is self-signed, so half of TLS's security measures are defeated, to mitigate that you have to white-list clients by checking their certs, but surely this is more trouble than getting a real server cert and sending your credentials in HTTP?
interesting. the 'digital natives' are definitely not computer experts. They are 100% users and know how to work a phone/tablet , connect to app store, download apps and play them. They don't know too much about what is actually happening.

I've said it to my wife so many times now it is engrained in her... we are driving somewhere (live in midwest). she pulls up phone and tries to do something on internet. when it takes more then 3 seconds she is like ugh what is going on. I have to say, honey let me tell you what is happening. Your phone is sending signals up to outerspace, bouncing around and eventually some data makes it's way back to your phone. Patience young padawan learner!
yeah, you're right, it's sort of a brain in the jar problem, isn't it. but it does seem like it's not that hard to detect because of latency between A and B, though it would require a pretty accurate clock on GPS device.
I would put 'my own idea, miserable failure' under 'someone else's idea, huge success'.

And it's not all black and white. You can build a product for someone else and still have a lot of say in the product. Maybe a feeling of ownership is good enough.
It may be so, but these people did exist and now mostly do not. It certainly does seem to be the case that most are unwilling to pay for this expertise (although I've found that, for instance, with sneakers, it makes a huge difference).
...It wasn't always wealthy. My family has been around Marin for generations, and my aunt bought a nice house in San Jose for like $14,000 years ago. What it's worth now that everyone wants it...yikes.
I love this one. Also, I often get asked if I can use part of a project as a "leg up" on a new project. I've tried various metaphors for why it won't help:

"This bulldozer engine and that motorcycle drivetrain can't just be smashed together to make this new type of flying ambulance the client is asking for."

But I always get the feeling that people think I'm exaggerating the difficulty. I'm not. A client-side JS UI library is not going to give us a "leg up" on a CRUD API on the server...

...unless you mean "leg up" in the sense of how dogs urinate on things.
Money is power, and some people are much better at getting their hands
on money/power than others. Regardless of whether such money/power is
"deserved" (which can be argued endlessly either way), we as a society
really have to question whether we want a society where the
overwhelming majority of people are screwed, and a tiny minority gets
to own everything/everyone, call the shots, make the laws, and order
the rest of us around.

We and our children are going to be shining these people's shoes for
generations to come. Is that the future we want?
You're right in that JS is a horrible language -- it was designed very quickly (and IMO Brendan Eich did a great job in the time he was given).

There are some things JS got right and things JS got wrong -- but I basically put it at the same level as languages like python/ruby/perl.

Another great thing about JS is that if you hate the semantics of JS, you can transpile -- pick up Typescript, Flow, Elm, Purescript. Compile-time-checking-as-an-addon, linters, transpilers, have all seen a tremendous uptick in interest partly thanks to JS's shortcomings.

Also, what in your opinion is a "good" language? because the list of innovative languages with amazing time-saving features/ground breaking research in them is very different from the list of workhorse languages people use from day to day.
> Inequality is only a problem in so much that it leads to higher crime rates and (eventually) civil instability in places where its most apparent.

This is astoundingly incorrect. Ask the people of Flint, MI. Income inequality directly impacts the length and quality of a person's life.

A quick glance at Wikipedia is all it takes to discover this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_inequality
Sure, and there's a point to all kinds of semi-strong typing. I'm glad Python does time checking at runtime, even it can't protect me from everything. When the type system becomes part of the grammar, it should be stronger than that though.

This in conjunction with:

* if a business (or business conglomerate, no sneaking around this) is bigger than N billion, the state gets N% of the shares, with the percentage progressively bigger up to something like say 25%.

At some point a company gets so big that it influences a country by its sheer size. In a democracy it's only fair that the state gets a say into what that company does.

I think it would be fair that the state gets limited voting rights to prevent abuse. I'd say that it should get a vote regarding profit decisions. But probably no say in product decisions, for example.

Yes, but this affects your recovery attempts as well, today email is basically instantaneous for most people.

Your rationale for the Nordic model being inapplicable to the US is a common one among conservatives, but it baffles me.

Of course the Nordics are smaller than the US, but all of the economic variables in question should scale on a per-capita basis. Specifically, what is it about a population difference that makes a strong safety net inapplicable?

Yeah, lots of companies do this. Wal-mart is another one.

My television comes with a built-in DVR in most stores. But I got it at Fry's, so it has a special SKU and the DVR disabled so it can't be price matched.

Not really. With REST, the server dictates the minimum requirements of the client. In GraphQL, the client dictates its own requirements, and the server is able to respond with no more and no less than what the client requires. Also REST necessitates multiple HTTP queries to fetch multiple resources. This is not a requirement of GraphQL.
That's actually a cool idea..
The supplies came from the FBI, not the military. FBI is civilian. Also, wrt the Tulsa race riot, it was individuals with personal aircraft, not the Air Force.

I'd be curious which of JavaScript, perl, js, and Ruby (and hell, go or Java, which are often considered high level) is more friendly to fp than python, and why, obviously. That's pretty much every other mainstream high level language ;)

In theory, I vote for how my government spends the money it obtains. Bezos isn't accountable for his personal wealth to be spent in the public good (or what I perceive to be the public good). If you assume the government is able to act in good faith on the public interest, then it makes more sense for them to have the money than a single individual only accountable to an extremely small minority of the population as a whole (his board/company)

The idea behind any socialist theory is that "the state" should be acting on the will of "The People" and therefor is better serving them. If it's democratic socialism, you're also able to help put players into "the state" that desire to act on the will of "the People" and remove players who don't. This is all in theory of course. The same way that, in theory, capitalists use their capital to create jobs that require labor which passes wealth to the laboring class. The reality is infinitely more complex.
So.much.experience and wisdom in this answer. I learned something new today. Thank you.
It was a casual remark, based on generalizations about my audience, not necessarily meant to stand up to scrutiny - however there's also this: https://techcrunch.com/2018/07/13/amazons-share-of-the-us-e-...
Reducing the amount of music and movies they sell in store has helped a lot in that regard. They've reclaimed a lot of that space for the "store within a store" concept for things like wearables and smart home stuff, which brings a more inviting, open feel to the stores instead of feeling claustrophobic.
I feel like the more apt analogy would be that of a movie director, since we hold movies to be art of a sort already, but accept the fact that it's just an implementation of an idea.
Not entirely unexpected to see stuff like this come up. We're still in the early days of what gene editing is and will become. Keeping my fingers crossed for its future.
Ever been around someone with, say, cancer and experienced the casual way they might talk about procedures that would horrify you (or at least make you a bit squeamish)? No one sympathizes with their cancer, but one would do well to make peace with reality.

I have no sympathy whatsoever for my hostage-takers, but I'm unlikely to fight my way out of this one, so might as well go back to talking about out-of-pocket maximums until I can make a shiv out of this toothpick.

Nearly all the software are tools for designing CRISPR gRNAs, not really educational software. There are videos and books for learning more about the whole thing though.
Same argument applies to pushing and defending towers, getting rax etc. Assuming that the devs did not hardcode rewards for those objectives, then the AI surely already has to 'understand' events that impact the game in long term.
> There are also a ton of maintenance benefits, like for example if you add a field in GraphQL that's perfectly fine to not change the version because that break any existing calls, which is not always true with REST.

Assuming you are using some from of Semantic Versioning, adding a field to a REST API should never break existing clients. Did you mean "removing" a field?

GraphQL is great for the frontend, but moving to GraphQL involves both people and tech issues. Common mistakes made when using new technologies are made all over again.

* Watch out for bad implementation of the GraphQL API (this will definitely result in bad performance).

* Design the GraphQL schema that you want the user to see/perceive. Not every object or field in your database needs to be exposed via the API the way it is.

My workplace is currently moving a huge monolith into a bunch of manageable components. Each of these components has its own GraphQL endpoint. Using schema-stitching, these are being stitched together into one endpoint for API users.

As a result of our codebase, we've tried GraphQL in:

* Ruby (graphql-ruby) - WATCHOUT Relay arguments for connection fields are not exposed to the library user. So basically you have to implement your own Relay-compliant stuff if you need access to the pagination arguments from Relay. Also, documentation is broken.

* Python (graphene) - We've had no issues so far. We worked around it.

* Node.js (Apollo GraphQL) - OH MY BUTTERFLIES. So far, this is the ONLY library I have come across that is polished and has plenty of documentation.

* Elixir (Absinthe) - My coworker worked on this part. He did not complain. So I'm assuming he had no issues.

The "Learn * in a day" joke applies to GraphQL. As simple as GraphQL looks for the client-side, it is beast of a job to build a GraphQL backend that is optimized for production.

Servers-side implementation of GraphQL is not very well documented apart from hello-worldly examples. Most of the knowledge found online is about client-side usage.

Due to poor documentation/examples provided, ramping up people with GraphQL is hard. Most first iterations I've had to review were slower than our REST APIs because of unoptimized code. Sitting down for a few minutes solves that problem.

To ramp up people at work place, I ended up having to do this:

* Ask people to use the GitHub v4 API to checkout GraphQL.

* Make them build a GraphQL server for a blog app.

* Dive straight into whatever feature/API they would build.

* Review their work a few dozen times and show them optimization tricks.

My most valuable lesson: When in doubt, dig into the source of these libraries.

At this point it's less about the quality of the hacks, but how the players use them. Now that everyone can wallbang well map knowledge is extra important. You need to know where is and isn't safe to stand.

Wallhacks completely remove early game tactics too. Instead of having a game centered around information gathering each side is already completely aware of the game state. No being sneaky.

Sometimes people jokingly say that it would be cool if there was a second Olympics with steroid and genetically engineered participants. Concerns for player health and blah blah blah stops that from happening. Not in CS though! Crank the aimbots up to 11 and have em duke it out! I love it.

The chassis are virtually the same, the new MBP is just a speed bump. They could design new keyboard to be backwards compatible with the old mounting points and connectors and simply replace old keyboards with the new ones. There is no new ground breaking features between old and new keyboards apart from that membrane. I think they just hope that after replacing old keyboard with the same ones will be enough to push those units trough warranty period and if keyboard fails after warranty then a lot of people will be pushed towards buying whole new unit. The second reason is that during the recall Apple is able to push out old stock of keyboards, if they would use new design keyboards the old stock would have to go to recycling witch is costly.

There wasn't a way of doing list comprehensions where you use the same expression on the left and right side. You needed a for loop with a temporary variable to achieve it. I think it's much more useful than map/filter for example as those are redundant if you use list comprehensions.
