Some of us still use Smalltalk, as you might imagine (the language is hardly in the top 10 but is far from dead). Dan Ingalls, the author of that article, has been using Javascript for the past decade or so to create a Smalltalk-like environment called Lively Kernel. L Peter Deutsch gave a talk many years ago about why Python had replaced Smalltalk as his favorite language (I can no longer find the talk on the Internet). David Ungar (who co-created the Smalltalk On A RISC, SOAR, chip and the Self language) seems to be focused on Swift.
Plugging or mentioning? Anyway I didn't know about this book and now I do so said comment isn't pointless. No need for the unpleasant tone.
Complicating Licensing
Great article. Big frameworks like Django are nice to get an app started quickly, but if you use them long-term it really pays to study how they work under the hood, read some source code, etc. Although "don't run debug mode on production" is probably in the first page of the tutorial :)
If you even know something is a .Net app then the developer is likely terrible, so it is a self-selecting sample. You don't know most of the .Net MVC apps you interact with because there's no reason to know that.
Thank you very much for your reply and for the source link. This is indeed different from my previous understanding, which was based mostly on English/French CC explanations website.

I'm surprised but pleased by the clause concerning the transformation in simplified characters, and all in all this is less restrictive than what I thought.

No. You said air pollution around the world is vastly superior now. The link you provided said "People are dying from pollution sustain during the 70s". If you don't see the difference, then I wish you a good day and let us drop this conversation.
I guess pointless depends on what you're reading the comment section for - I'd put you in the minority if you came here looking for book suggestions.

It's certainly unrelated to the article, and the OP didn't understand why they received downvotes, so I believe my explanation was sufficient.
This is exactly where my company was headed. We had a JS framework that creeped closer and closer to a full-blown data-attribute controlled environment. We use a ton of SSR to serve the views, and it is fast on every device and system. It's easy to iterate and add features and with very low overhead.

But... it hit a point where Vue.js was just so far superior to our own inhouse framework, that any interface that needs highly interactive component get's Vue now. Since Vue can run as a script file (hoping it gets the full ES module treatment soon) then we can splash it around anywhere in the interface we want, just like jQuery and our custom framework.

Now our system is like this: SSR > Full page > Vue app/vanilla js tweaks.

Updates are: AJAX/fetch a block of HTML into an element, and it can be a full Vue app, or just a block of content.

It's interesting to see that Basecamp ran into the same problems we did and didn't find that the full-on SPAs everywhere was the right solution for them. It's a nice bit of confirmation that there are many different ways to solve a problem that are valid.
>Waiting too long to have kids can involve problems for both mother and child. (Among other things) An older mom can require fertility treatments to get pregnant at all and there is higher risk of certain birth defects in the child.

This seems like it's stretching the article though, the average age of birth for women with college degrees (currently) is ~30. While that's certainly older than the non-college degrees, it's still well below the 35 cutoff which most people seem to regard as when birth complications becomes a serious risk.
Please let me start by saying that Yubico is NOT the closed/evil. Without Yubico, we wouldn't have security keys, and we probably wouldn't have these standards. They're working since 10+ years on this problem, and they released a great amount of open source.

Some short term advantages of Solo: open firmware that can be verified by the community. Somehow a reference implementation maybe. Prices will be slightly lower, yes, but not a massive advantage imo. I also hope we can build an open documentation system, to make it easier for people to start using fido2 devices.

Long term dreams.

1) Open hardware will allow for experimentation. I'm personally hacking security keys into jewels, and I hope that people will take Solo design, alter it, and embed security keys into other objects and shapes. Keys are getting obsolete.

2) Pushing the industry. Again Yubico is not the "closed one" here. Security coprocessors/chips are. Hopefully, by having more and more open hardware, there'll be a market for even more open chips.

This isn't an NLP problem, it's an AI problem. Despite all the hype, we haven't actually made any progress toward solving strong AI, human-like general intelligence. NLP, computer vision, and many other AI problems are probably AI-complete, meaning that solving them entails solving strong AI. And the inability to generalize is exactly what separates the partial solutions we currently have from strong AI.

Yeah, the first one is called `bind`. The second one is a variety of `bind`. But you can just lookup the symbol in Hoogle and it will give you the definition.

You can also lookup a type signature and Hoogle will give you all functions for that type signature. For example, there is only one total function `(a -> b) -> [a] -> [b]` (map) and if you search that Hoogle will show you map, accordingly: https://www.haskell.org/hoogle/?hoogle=%28a+-%3E+b%29+-%3E+%...

Honestly Hoogle for Haskell is better than Google for other languages for finding things.

EDIT: Oh, you can also click to go to the operator docs. For the case of <$>, the docs would tell you that it's an fmap synonym.
Wouldn't that be good for 4th Amendment enforcement? It's very clear and in the original Bill of Rights
It does sound quite reasonable when you put it that way. On the other hand, you could also describe it as, "we should starve poor families to death if the mother is sexually active and doesn't use approved birth control." Which sounds decidedly less reasonable to me.

But ultimately my counterargument would be that we should focus on helping people who need it, rather than on not helping people who we think don't deserve it. This country has a puritanical mindset about public help, where we're outraged at any person who receives it who we see as being in any way unworthy. For a pervasive recent example, look at drug testing for welfare recipients. It's more expensive than not doing it, but people love it because we see drug addicts as being evil and therefore unworthy of help.

We need to teach compassion, or at the very least rationality, rather than a punishment mentality.

I've still not seen tooling in the Python ecosystem to make a GraphQL API actually safe to expose to the internet -- without query complexity policing, a malicious client can construct queries that will take an effectively infinite amount of time to complete, and take out your DB connection.

Github handles this problem: https://developer.github.com/v4/guides/resource-limitations/

Is this something that's generally solved in other languages? (I've seen a few plugins on NPM that tackle the problem). Or is this just not something that implementors are worrying about?

It's capitalism vs humanism. I'm not really sure why people prefer the former when the latter is an option. (I'm guessing it's knee-jerk from when it's not)

I say humanism because protecting (vulnerable) people from scams in advertising has nothing to do with socialism, and everything to do with people just being excellent to each other and helping one another.

Forces of capitalism have no compassion. It's quite a mechanical system, you can't expect that to produce a system with a consistent and sufficient amount of decency, without it tearing off a limb every once in a while.
We are returning to an apprenticeship society and it’s about time if we want to keep pace with our need for knowledge workers. I wonder how long it will be before AI reduces our need for knowledge workers and we return to using things like degrees to disqualify candidates.
I do some bike riding (Mountain biking, road biking, and/or BMX), and lift weights. I also like to hang out at the local hackerspace occasionally and just talk to people there, see what projects other people are working on, etc.

Mostly I work though. Aside from the 40'ish hours a week I put in at the day-job, I put in probably around another 40 hours a week working on my side project. So I don't really have a lot of idle time. I do try to get some reading in though... usually for 45 minutes or so before I fall asleep at night, or ever now and then I'll take a long, hot, bath and read in the tub.

> I think the US desperately needs a "mommy track" for college that encourages women with young kids to go to school part-time and take 6 to 8 years to complete their degree. I think this would solve a lot of problems.

Agreed 100% + add publicly backed financial support. IMO, moms study damn hard, and don't take stuff for granted.

This (mom in longer term educational program) is what well-off people with spouses in college/grad school do today with their own funds. Most universities are already happy to accommodate those people because they are paying. I know this from my own experience.

> Historically, we resolved these conflicts by having women have babies young, but with a financially established husband who was typically older. Now, that is decried as evil patriarchy.

Evil patriarchy is forcing women into such marriages, via repressive social norms and limits to educational and career opportunity for women, instead of allowing them to have their own choice. The choice can't be marriage vs social isolation and/or destitution.

There's nothing wrong with a marriage being partly about providing financial security to someone who doesn't have it, but to make it the only option for that person... that seems evil.

EDIT: wording
Given the string of banking frauds, rating frauds, international price fixing, rigging and bailouts back home this kind of sweeping statement about 'these parts' paints a black and white picture that minimizes the 'white' in 'these parts' and the 'black' in other parts.
There is no "serious risk" with pregnancy until at least 40 or older unless there are unrelated health issues. There is a small increase in risk and decrease in fertility through the mid 30's but 35 is an extremely young age to consider risky.
We're considering this and similar features (gpg/ssh keys). One minor issue is the memory requirement, as our current chip only has 128KB of flash available. The bigger issue is certainly our time :), we're really pushing to have Solo keys available before Xmas, and thus we're prioritizing hardware and fido2. We also want to get fido2 certification, which of course means a lot more work that just making it work.
> landlords should be taxed as much as the market will bear, with the proceeds spent on local residents.

For rented properties, taxing the landlord is taxing tenants (indirectly, but tightly, linked). Those local residents that you want to spend the money are the tenants in most cases.

What happens when bank defaults? You become homeless!

It’s a win-win (for the bank).

On a more serious note: a society which has homeless ppl, in 2018, cannot be considered “civilized”.
Yes, that was a bad analogy, sorry. What I wanted to say really: overpopulation is at the root of all the planet's troubles.

My sister and I were both STAR Student (highest SAT score in our graduating high school class, top 20% GPA) and won National Merit Scholarships to UGA, one of the top two colleges in our home state. She took her scholarship and got her degree. I turned mine down, got married at age 19 to another 19 year old and spent two decades as a homemaker.

My sister began trying to have kids in her late twenties. She was 36 iirc when she finally had her only child. She has also miscarried multiple times.

She and I are no longer close, but we were at one time. We talked about the possibility of me serving as her surrogate if she couldn't have a child on her own.

Through her, I know quite a lot about fertility issues. I don't think I'm stretching anything. More like giving the nutshell version of many decades of knowledge.
More words from James Clark on JSON: "Yay" and "Sigh"

http://blog.jclark.com/2010/11/xml-vs-web_24.html

>If other formats start to supplant XML, and they support these goals better than XML, I will be happy rather than worried.

>From this perspective, my reaction to JSON is a combination of "Yay" and "Sigh".

>It's "Yay", because for important use cases JSON is dramatically better than XML. In particular, JSON shines as a programming language-independent representation of typical programming language data structures. This is an incredibly important use case and it would be hard to overstate how appallingly bad XML is for this. The fundamental problem is the mismatch between programming language data structures and the XML element/attribute data model of elements. This leaves the developer with three choices, all unappetising:

>live with an inconvenient element/attribute representation of the data;

>descend into XML Schema hell in the company of your favourite data binding tool;

>write reams of code to convert the XML into a convenient data structure.

>By contrast with JSON, especially with a dynamic programming language, you can get a reasonable in-memory representation just by calling a library function.
> As though we had followed the herd

Tad condescending there...
> Waiting too long to have kids can involve problems for both mother and child

This is way exaggerated. In the context of the article we are not talking about having children at 50.
I once used FDW to synchronize Microsoft SQL server DB with PostreSQL, after setting up, It was just a matter of a single UPDATE to sync quite complex data across systems. It isn’t a perfect way, but given there was no public interface in MS SQL backed application it was a pretty effective solution.
That's addressed in the article.

Contrary to the findings from the Steve study published earlier this year, the satellite did not detect any charged particles raining down toward Earth's magnetic-field lines, indicating that whatever created Steve did not follow the same rules as the solar particles that create the aurora.

NFC is just more convenient. Also, the support for fido over usb vs nfc vs ble depends on the apps/software implementation. To my knowledge Google supports all of them, but many apps may just choose to implement NFC as it's "easier"/more common.
in a lot of the world there are good reasons to only talk about the current national identity, but that doesn't mean they don't know where their family is from.
It's also a good proxy for socioeconomic factors. In the US, people of color are much more likely to be poor.
Interesting, how do you derive at "4-10x slower"?

Running the exported notebook here takes

time py3 python.py

chrome:

That's not 10 times slower, but a 100 times slower!

Still good start.
I think the gaming potential is huge, it would take games like Pokemon GO and turn them into something like Pokemon Stadium, or can you imagine playing Wizards Chess? Obviously gaming isn't something that makes something must have, its just the area I've thought the most about. I guess I have a hard time imagining that a tool as robust as AR(especially if you add leap motion) would fail to find a set of "killer apps" that make it a market phenomenon.
Nobody else disturbed by the idea of a computer identifying under-performing employees and delivering them a shot of a stimulant? Coffee is rather tame, but this is a step towards many a scifi trope.
ETL, that way you can also ensure your data gets put in a format that'd make it easy to report on.

Granted, it's not quite as quick as this, and not suited for "one-off" reporting, but it's a lot more flexible. Put things in a nice star schema and you have a good way to do analytics on your data.

> Why do we need to be rich or have guanxi merely to enjoy access to very basic public services?

I can't speak about China, butt this question was quite pertinent in communist Romania. The answer should be fairly obvious. Because it's communist and the government doesn't give a fuck about its people. That's likely why the daughter is in America. That most certainly is how I ended up here. When it's necessary to have connections in high places or a ton of money or both just to get the doctors to not let you die or to get any decent healthcare, that's the sign of a system that has failed most if not all of its people. We should learn from this here in America because we are only a little ahead of this type of situation with healthcare here. Instead of connections though, the privileged here have good health care and the money to pay for it.
> That is the most logical as a fine is supoosed to be a deterrent and it does not deter if you are super rich.

That is why that system doesn't work. For most things the required amount of deterrent doesn't depend on your income. For example, if it costs $100 to dispose of motor oil properly but $0 to dump it in the sewer then the fine has to be at least $100. But that means it needs to be at least $100 for everybody, or there will be people who find it profitable -- even to the point of setting up a "motor oil disposal" company where they dump everyone's motor oil in the sewer and then just pay the fines. But if you set the amount high enough that it deters the lowest income person and then scale it with income, you end up with unnecessarily draconian penalties on ordinary people.

It also becomes an obvious arbitrage opportunity. For example, if a rich person wants to travel fast by car then they get a low-income chauffeur so that the speeding fine is less. Income-based systems are always susceptible to this, where the super rich pay the cost of doing the arbitrage and what the system really ends up doing is hammering the middle class because they can't justify the arbitrage so they end up paying higher rates than the rich. See also corporate income tax, paid by local businesses but not huge international ones.

Finland only gets away with it because they have much less income inequality, and in particular much less poverty, so the ratio typically doesn't scale to the point that it starts causing huge problems like this.

Bees and the World-Wide Farming Web
If it's CompSci, it lets me know if it's an older version of a current work or an updated version of older work. I like to skip the former in many cases to go straight to the final, polished paper. Whereas, the latter keeps me from skipping a paper whose preprint or initial results I already read. Without a date, I might think it's the same paper.

I'd say it's even more important as a search aid. I run through hundreds of papers looking for the next dozen or so worth submitting to a wide audience. Search will bring me results that span decades. Dates in prominent places help me quickly filter or discover stuff depending on what I'm looking for. For instance, I was looking for CompCert-like projects getting results going back to the 1980's. Verification of realistic, low-level programs didn't get feasible until into the 2000's. So, I immediately filtered anything before that time. Where the date shows up also varies depending on what kind of site has the article. And you bet people might have not thought about this use case when publishing their papers in the 80's. Yet, the standard practice of dating the stuff still helped me.
Thanks for the link, I learned something!

But that doesn't fit because it was in winter and in the dead middle of the night, somewhere between Canada and Iceland.
