It wouldn't, couldn't go through standardization like that.

The article misses emphasizing or properly mention English's success started not in conquering but overcoming conquerors.

It's hard to think of English as having a single source, as what remains of that gets very small as you go back in time. The language in England and thereabouts overcame several invasions. Roman, Viking, a couple of invasions you'd call French now, among others... they all left their mark, or more accurately the native population absorbed a sizable portion of the invaders' language and established and re-established the dominance of the English language in the area.

If you take a beginners' course in French you'll probably get the line that English is 60% French, badly pronounced and it's true! (more or less)

It would sure be hard to standardize something that has a habit of repeatedly bolting on large chunks of other languages, nevermind it's modern regional inconsistencies.

I don't think it's right to say they will tank and then come back. In terms of opinion they went 'This is an idea' -> 'This will solve everything' -> 'Hang on that's rubbish, they won't solve anything!' -> 'Oh, yeah that's just another thing that exists in the world'.

Meanwhile, in reality, they went from 'This is an idea' -> 'Hey, we can solve a few interesting problems with this' and then split. The people who know how to develop technology built some interesting limited applications, and then scaled into more powerful stuff. The people who don't really know anything about technology will have bought into overhyped projects, they'll never go anywhere and get canned.

The second one is a pretty reasonable way for technology to evolve, the problem is that people aren't looking at what's happening, they're looking at 'influencers' and 'commentators' who are more interested in selling their opinions than talking about the technology.
>If you can find women fighting air-to-air combat in Spits, P-51s, or P-47s, and winning, you'd have history on your side.

If you said that women weren't strong enough to fly these specific aircraft in combat missions, we would be having a different argument.

I don't doubt that it would be very hard to find women who would have the strength to pilot some WW2 aircraft in combat missions. That is not what you wrote.

It may well be the case that the Spitfire is an example of such aircraft, but the Yak is not, as evidenced by the provided links.

I will attribute those things to lack of funding, lack of interest of the general populace, and lack of competence and less to malice or conspiracy (as it is often made out to be) -- they stabbed us in our back.

Where I went to college in the US there was this house about a hundred odd years old. They would be absolutely drooling at that 'historic' artifact, there aren't as many (physical historical artifacts). People had a lot of time to care and funds to attend to it. Compare that with any run of the mill old city in India, or compare its capital, Delhi. It would be hard to throw stones far and not hit constructions that are 100 years old. The city is strewn with these and people are to busy fighting for their day to day needs. In such a scenario it is hard for the populace to agree that significant funds need to be allocated for preservation and restoration.

Add the political agenda to it that selectively directs the attention to artifacts that fit their agenda -- then this is what you get.

‘The Gell-Mann amnesia effect is a theoretical psychological phenomenon, the term itself being coined by author, film producer and academic Michael Crichton after discussions with Nobel-Prize winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann.

Originally described in Crichton's "Why Speculate?" speech, the Gell-Mann amnesia effect labels a commonly observed problem in modern media, where one will believe everything they read from a journalist even after they come across an article about something they know well that is completely incorrect.

The conclusions found and perspectives portrayed by the author are entirely erroneous, often times flipping the cause and the effect. Crichton notes these as "wet streets cause rain" stories.

In short, most eloquently put by Thomas L. McDonald, the Gell-Mann amnesia effect defines the idea that "I believe everything the media tells me except for anything for which I have direct personal knowledge, which they always get wrong."’

> Also there is no much of an option really, AI is pretty much unavoidable because the ever evolving immense complexity of modern society has made legal resolution so complex that court cases take up to decades to be fully resolved which of course is not a viable solution.

Instead of turning law into a computer game where the company with the most TPUs wins, why not simplify or reform the system so that human beings can understand it? Isn't the point of the legal system to resolve conflicts between people, not computers?

I'm worried that we're driving off a cliff of incomprehensibility, where things happen but nobody can understand why. Or even if they do, they don't have the authority to override the system which is making the decision. Reforming the system outright is always too risky -- it's been working OK so far, right? But what happens when it stops working? How can you fix a system you don't understand?

My fuzzy mind when from AI and legal to google for Stuart Sierra (just to see how is clojure evolving nowadays), the link "is clojure dying" was irresistible, then appcanary from clojure to ruby transition and happiness for programmers, then Stuart "Do not" about combining lazy evaluation with side effects and the comments there seems to justify that clojure "Simplicity over easyness" is a problem. When the AI hype expand from deep learning to other techniques I think we'll see a better scenario to apply AI to real world. Yesterday the "How is Haskell in 2017 and 70-100 full time programmers in Haskell in the US" give us an idea of how is the tech world evolving. The velocity of the expanding radius of technology and IA is decreasing.
I applaud your example, but "park between residencies and classroom" is exactly what I meant. It's nicing up the area that's being used daily by loads of people with a deliberate path.
For me "park" usually means "recreational area that doesn't happen to intersect the main pathway". And if it does, yes, sure, please make the direct route accessible so not every bit of lawn is treated as a footpath.

Maybe I'm more thinking older cities like where I live where they sometimes convert old graveyards not being used for 200 years and having many graves of well-known architects, inventors, etc to parks, but not in the "play football on the grass" parks, but shady paths to take a stroll and sit on a bench.

right.

I'm gonna stretch my metaphor a lot.

Imagine street signs use polarized glasses (or something, I'm not an optics). I can see only those signs whose glasses I where.

I choose to wear google glasses. Everyone does, the competition is pretty good but google has been around for so long that I just don't really bother with anything else.

Now google takes down some signs. Am I really going to carry 3 pairs of glasses (N pairs, M are relevant) in order to figure out what street I'm on? or am I just going to walk a block to the next street and use the service google hasn't arbitrarily decided to destroy.
My native language is Bengali, far removed from English. I speak French and Spanish too, but not as well as English.

You are right about translated literature, though that was not my primary point.
What a wonderful idea!

I've used it with an episode of "This is Us" (to Arabic, which I'm currently studying) and it works perfectly well.

Suggestions:

1. Please make it possible to review the original and the translation side by side (i.e. an "overview" button).

2. Also, don't block the UI when pausing. I.e. make it possible to scroll back & forth.

3. Allow controlling speed.

* I know it's suppose to be synchronized with what's playing at the same time, but it's needed when you can't read fast enough. Might need to provide a way to catch-up and jump to the current position automatically (keeping running time while in paused mode) .

4. Maybe consider allowing a users to submit (quality) translations (could be hosted elsewhere, if there's a legal problem). Lot's of really good stuff is not always available online (or not easily discoverable).

For example, was trying to watch "L'insult" (Lebanese) for which I know there are couple of (horrible) translations online, but Kontext was not able to find them.

5. Allow downloading a single merged file (original language + transaltion), if possible, for local viewing by users who download their own shows/movies.

Great job! Looking forward to see how it progresses.

> Googles AI blows every other companies out of the water.

That is certainly true, but that could also mean that Google will be the first company to hit certain unsurpassable road-blocks. Just look at Google Translate, which IMO hasn’t qualitatively improved for the better for at least 2 years now, even though most probably the data on which it is based is at least an order of magnitude “bigger”. The same might also happen to autonomous driving.
>In 2016, Facebook in effect charged the Trump campaign lower rates than the Clinton campaign, because Trump’s ads made people angrier and thus generated more clicks. Nobody took a decision to charge Trump less. It was the logical outcome of the ad business’s core principle: the more attention you win, the more you get paid. Since negative emotions are more likely to win and hold attention than positive emotions, the system has an incentive to spread fear and loathing. Russia’s entire propaganda campaign relies on an advertising model that rewards paranoia and spite.

That stuff seems to be quite a problem these days. I was just looking last night at how the Brexit vote was probably swung by a bunch of immigrant fear mongering on facebook in the 2 weeks before the referendum - graph of the polls https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DjIQI7gXgAAAmbd?format=jpg and one of the ads https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DjIM5XLU8AAuB7o?format=jpg

The details are only gradually coming out - facebook released the ads a couple of days ago and Dominic Cummings the campaign manager has refused a summons from parliament to come explain what happened.

I guess we have to wise up to it a bit and maybe change the algorithms to be less hate promoting.

> I find it very strange that, according to this study, Millennials and Gen-Z have more faith in business leaders than in politicians.

The study is about a specific group of Millenials and Gen-Z:

"The 2018 report is based on the views of 10,455
millennials questioned across 36 countries.
Millennials included in the study were born between
January 1983 and December 1994 and represent a
specific group of this generation—those who have
college or university degrees, are employed full time
and work predominantly in large, private-sector
organizations. 5 Millennials are increasingly taking on
senior positions in which they can influence how their
organizations address society’s challenges.

"This report also includes responses from 1,844 Gen Z respondents in Australia, Canada, China, India,
the United Kingdom and the United States. Gen
Z respondents were born between January 1995 and
December 1999. All are currently studying for or have
obtained a first/higher degree. More than a third are
working either full time (16 percent) or part time (21
percent)."

(Emphasis mine. I could've used some more emphasis, FWIW.)

> Maybe if they collectively went out to vote instead of staying at home (2016 US presidential election only had a <50% turnout for these groups)

On top of the above, the study is about world-wide [1] Millenials; not US-only.

> People put themselves into these markets and lose everything their ancestors fought for, including 40h weeks, paid vacation, health insurance, paid sick leave etc. In the EU it's even worse where all those things and more are guaranteed to employees by the state to a much larger extend.

40h work week and paid sick leave is not guaranteed if you work for an employement agency. The gig economy is just the next step in the on-going hype of destroying the rights workers have fought for. Yeah, its worse than employment agencies, but we shouldn't have gone the path of employment agencies in the first place. In the EU, employers need a good reason to fire you if you have a contract; if you're pregnant and employed by an employment agency you just get sacked, poof like that. Ludicrous step backward in women rights.

An API not suitable for commercial use. So now you're relying on a third party who is suddenly trying to cope with some percentage of the insane traffic of google maps. If they can they make a lot of money.

if not you lose money by switching to them. if it's less than the new rate that you get from google, it's a hard sell to switch. You might point out that this third party should spend the money to scale, but unlike google they aren't equipped with an advertising firehose of cash that they can point at a losing business whenever they want. They have to operate a scale they can afford. Best case they have the staff to build out a service that they can scale quickly enough to take advantage. Realistically, that means using a cloud service provided by one of the oligarchs.
It might be OK if everything goes well.

My own experience closing down stores of different types, though, is that that time varies. Most of these places won't let you clock in just a tad early: One place required you be perfectly on time, many others had a 3-minute window before your scheduled time.

Now, if locking the door and leaving took a minute each time (much like employees leaving without locking up), it might not be an issue. But lots of things happen. Sometimes you have to wait for folks to use the toilet: Other times, there are issues with the alarm and you wind up having to call the alarm folks. Sometimes it just takes longer to leave: One fast food place I worked at required folks gather in one vestibule. 2 workers went to their cars, one stopping outside the door and the other stopping at the exit.

This was a security measure in case of a robbery. You were encouraged to clock out once your work was done, though, and wait around for the others and management to get finished as well. You were violating safety standards if you just left.

This was all unpaid time. Even at 5 minutes each day, it adds up. Sure, it ism't the same as requiring hours of unpaid overtime, but that's only due to severity of wage theft. It is like having a lesser punishment for stealing $5 compared to $100.

I think in theory you are correct: as soon as you have 2 different "versions" of a language, you can, with sufficient creativity, construct a program that will break with the newer version.

How likely this is going to bite you in practice, though, is a different question, and one where the specifics of the language are important.

C++ is a language without a module system; instead, the preprocessor resolves #include directives by textual substitution, which is of course extremely fragile wrt. compatibility, particularly considering idiomatic "header-only libraries" of the boost variety.

Haskell doesn't use #include but has a module system, which avoids a lot of the C++ standard incompatibility issues, because you can compile each module independently with its required language standard.

Also note that there is a pragma you can put into modules to specify the version directly inline, e.g., "{-# LANGUAGE Haskell2010 #-}" or "{-# LANGUAGE Haskell98 #-}" .
Normal values of urine stream velocity in boys (1985)
It's true, I live in Portugal where there are many tourists and Americans talk by far the loudest in my experience. Mind you, they are not 'being loud', they usually don't annoy at all and don't intend to, they just talk with louder voices than anyone else. Particularly young American men (at 20 or so) talk with loud booming voices that you can barely hear anywhere else.

I don't think there are any physiological reasons, it just seems to be a minor cultural difference, but I wonder what the reasons are. The school system, maybe? College?

Another small difference I've noticed over the years, and, again, I don't mean this in any disrespectful way: Some if not many US Americans don't know how to use knife and fork in the "European way". They don't know how to turn the fork elegantly after cutting meat. Instead, they cut everything first and then use the fork in the right hand for eating. This must have historical reasons, maybe it also differs from state to state?
