I'm surprised to hear that you're bottlenecking on CPU time. Could you verify that my understanding is correct? I would've thought your bottleneck would be networking and connectivity as you have to wait for GitHub to process all of the requests.

I think the premise is reasonable that FB (and other gigantic social networks) might be hurting democracy to some extent, but I also agree that the extent described here is absurd. However, perhaps ironically, I think the commonly held opinion you're expressing is actually dangerous. It's bad that people "blame" things too freely for their team's loss in democratic elections, but it's unavoidable, and while I do think there's more of it this time around, I think it's only because of a combination of two things: 1. There's more stuff to blame this time (right or wrong). 2. The winning team had a more mocking and disrespectful tone this time, openly represented even by the winning candidate himself, which is highly unusual.

My point is that your list isn't mutually exclusive (Facebook, interference, racism, bad Democratic candidate), and, anecdotally, every human being I know in person agrees those are all real issues that contributed, and only disagree on degrees, and those disagreements have always been reasonable. What I think is dangerous is broadly dismissing all those issues under the umbrella of "you lost, deal with it." Irrational blame-seekers will always point to every single issue they can - please don't let that cast a shadow on the issues themselves if you can.
Cython also supports writing type annotations in a separate .pxd file. It's a bit awkward because you're effectively duplicating all function + variable declarations, but it _is_ a valid way to keep the original Python source intact.

(On a side note, using this feature led to a particularly memorable debugging session that set a personal record in terms of time spent vs amount of code changed to fix the issue: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11115110 ).

Yes, we work with structured data - especially JSON. Thank goodness we have jq to deal with that. Need to work with APIs? There's always wget and curl and should you need anything more extensive you can create a javascript file and execute it with node - all from within bash. Bottom line, I can do everything I need to do from the command line or from a bash script without having the bash maintainers needing to worry about creating and maintaining the functionality of jq, wget, curl, etc. within bash. It seems to me that the "problem" is more elegant than the "solution."

It probably depends on how complex you are trying to make things. I'm using Hugo for my blog, and everything I've wanted to do (beyond creating the initial theme) has been a 5 minute task. Now that it includes SASS compilation it's perfect...

your instinctual reaction against design patterns because you may have realised that design patterns are patches over flaws in the programming language's design - they're a terrible basis to build an architecture on. There's some discussion on this idea at the C2 wiki: http://wiki.c2.com/?AreDesignPatternsMissingLanguageFeatures
Its gets worse if like me you only blog once a year. It takes a while to figure out how to write a post let alone publish it. I can't imagine how long it would take to tweak the template. I too am sticking with Hugo, simple setup. I am not going to maintain a Drupal installation to host my blog. Makes one realise there are pros and cons with each technology.
I agree that there is regulation that is needlessly complicated, but there are also a lot of regulations that are only perceived that way because they need to be complex to cover a bunch of important edge cases.

I can't count the number of times in law school that someone would raise a point about something being written ridiculously and the professor would walk them through an alternate way of writing it, and by the end, you often saw that what appeared convoluted was actually a fairly elegant solution.

I definitely came to law school with a very libertarian perspective and left with a grudging respect that most laws are actually written fairly optimally. Whether they should exist is a different question, but given that they exist, it is generally unlikely that there is a simpler way to write the law.

The fact that something is complex doesn't mean it is needlessly complicated.

All that said, I think there should be some sort of "cooling off period" where people can't work in a certain private industry for a number of years after working on regulation for that industry.
Your comparison only works because we now know that the Nazis committed horrific deeds. We didn't know about the holocaust until the early 1940s. Until then, they were just another government to do business with.

The whole point of WhatsApp is having a primary key that is your phone number. And they launched on literally all kinds of OSes that developing countries were using, including Symbian as late as 2012. So please tell me, how exactly is a service where you can message each other by their phone numbers and that was probably supported on the most number of platforms for its time "exclusive" and "in-group".

Sorry but you don't seem to have any idea what you are talking about.
I would really say that they're different sides of the same coin. I also wouldn't say that an entrepreneur necessarily has noticeably bigger payoff. It might be true in tech, but not necessarily for the majority of small businesses.

I can't recall off the top of my head which one, but I remember seeing a study that showed that a significant amount of small business owners in the US did so just to get to do what they want for a living. (Again, why the "for a living"?)

Entrepreneurialism, in a lot of cases, is a new kind of wage slavery. The precarity is the most easily exploited (by rideshare services, freelance agencies, marketplace platforms, among others) to coax people into positions without security or benefits.

I haven't done research, but one possible explanation I heard about cow urine (organic grass fed) is in helping balancing the stomach bacteria. We as modern humans have still not fully understood the effects and side effects of gut flora completely. Even recently gut bacteria is linked to heart diseases.(#1: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/07/170711093012.h..., #2: http://sciencenordic.com/gut-bacteria-flora-linked-chronic-h...). So we definitely have a long way to go in understanding our own body, which our forefathers might have gotten a better understanding.

Cow urine is also prescribed as a drug by Ayurveda, which isn't an occult science or anything and have survived well into modern age. Several practitioners of Ayurveda used advanced surgical technologies, perhaps first in the world.

I find this sort of comment very frustrating. Indeed there is some truth in it, but my frustration stems from a complete lack of any indication of the degree to which it is true, or the degree to which Trump supporters believe these things.

> he's playing to a feeling

Implying any difference of political opinion is based on emotion, rather than logic or a simple difference of opinion. Sometime in the last 10 years or so did we decide The One True Proper Way To Run The World, but it wasn't reported in newspapers?

> that their share of America's political, cultural and economic "birthright"

They think certain things are a "birthright", as opposed to thinking (correctly or incorrectly) that it is something they have earned?

> has been stolen from them by "globalists" and their foreign allies

Why is globalists in quotes? In objective reality, is there not a fairly clear distinction between those who are more nationalist in their preferred approach to managing the world's affairs, and those who are more collective/globalist?

> and that this need to be pushed back against to return the US to some (apocryphal and mythical) golden age.

Must the motivation be returning to a "golden age"? I see the debate over nationalism vs globalism as little different than capitalism vs socialism. The US tends to be somewhat more towards the capitalist end of the spectrum, which yields some good results and some bad, I don't agree with the notion that any of that necessarily "belongs" or must necessarily be shared with the overall world. Demanding "charity" is extremely offensive to me. To be clear, I believe charity is very important and by my morality I essentially consider it a near obligation if things have worked out very well for you in life, but I simultaneously believe that it should be absolutely voluntary.

> He's not trying to negotiate as an equal but assert his dominance

This sounds lovely at first glance, until you put a little thought into it. Isn't this precisely how one should negotiate? Would you have us believe it is an accepted and widely practiced norm to negotiate in a manner that does not accentuate your strengths, in order to best achieve an agreement most beneficial to your goals?

> or at least in his head and the hearts of some of his supporters, he is.

Speculation on my part, but this seems fairly inline with the popular notion that Trump lacks or has lost his mental faculties, and his supporters are all motivated purely by uninformed emotions. Again, is an informed, logical, difference of opinion impossible?

> Lots of paintings are not beautiful, but are very meaningful and artistic.

Like the GP, you're using a definition of beauty which is not at all standard in the field of aesthetics.

If the work is visually meaningful and artistic, while producing a feeling that is in some way sublime, transcendental, revelatory, etc., then that's beauty you're seeing.

> you think that a song like 'Hurt' (NIN or Cash) is diminished by the very well written lyrics

Lyrics will make bad music better, by distracting from the music. Strip away the lyrics, and the underlying music in Hurt is pathetic when stood up against just about any Classical, Jazz, Progressive, et all, piece.

Lyrics != music. Lyrics are a thing added to music.

> I feel like you're imposing very strict definitions on what is inherently a very ambiguous or 'loose' field.

This is a very common sentiment among people who have not read anything from the last 3,000 years of the philosophy of aesthetics. :-P

Regulations are ever changing because regulators want the market to be a certain way and companies will look to innovate and sometimes this is in a way the regulator doesn't believe is in people's best interests.

If you look at MiFID 2 that came into effect at the start of this year, it cost financial companies significant amounts to comply. Many of these companies would prefer it didn't exist. Others have identified opportunities from the changes that they can use (Dark pools being less prevalent and the rise of Systematic Internalisers).

Its complex because there are lots of moving parts and regulators want to keep the market in check without having undesired consequences.

I completely agree with you there, and I'm sorry if my comment came across as aggressive. What I'm surprised by though, is that anyone thinks corporations are anything but a way to make money.

Does anyone really believe they care about serving the general welfare? It's money first, "don't be evil" second, for all for-profit corporations. There's nothing wrong with that, it's just what a corporation is for.

> I knew Salk refused the patent, not about the USSR's pioneering work in barely feeding their people (sorry, phage therapies).

That's pretty stupid snark, by the way. More evidence of unthinking dogmatism and rather limited understanding.

No one sensible seriously claims the Soviet Union had a model worthy of emulation. However, it's foolish to think it was totally flawed or that its flaws somehow prove "capitalism is best, the more the better."

> But if Salk had made 100M dollars, would that have been bad? Lebron is worth way more than that. He plays basketball.

> We as a society should be recognizing and paying for talent, not pretending workers co-ops and non-profits are effective or that capitalism hasn't produced all of the good things we enjoy.

Some segments of society need to stop pretending that capitalism is a suitable replacement for literally every other kind of human motivation. The main strength of capitalism is that it sometimes incentivizes the already greedy according to their own logic to behave in ways that are socially beneficial (at least more than some other systems), but that's about it.

It's a serious error to want to corrupt the noble people who raise above greed and want to do good for its own sake to the point they need to rely on capitalism to motivate them. It's also a serious error to think that capitalist motivations will accomplish all the good those people would have done for their more noble reasons.
That's irrelevant. You're not going to "roll back" a brain replacement. Future technology does not allow arbitrary reversible manipulations of molecules. Creating new individuals is much less effort than rewriting old ones in any case.

Not good. Most of the western world doesn't have free speech.

It isn't an "expansive" interpretation. It's the definition of free speech.

Your "western democracies" have the same understanding of free speech as saudi arabia, russia and china does ( aka "you are free to say things only we approve of" ). That's not free speech by any definition.

Besides, when it comes to things like free speech or human rights, one should err on the side of too much free speech or human rights rather than less.
