Granted, publishing on Medium removes a lot of the author's own "branding"; but doesn't Medium also provide a certain level of visibility that would be quite hard to obtain if one were to publish individually?
I empathize with your frustration of having to work with something you don’t like (or feel is unnecessary). I would much prefer that people who don’t like React aren’t forced to use it but that’s not how job market works. Sorry about this.

I’d love to see what OOP solution you envision for these problems. It’s not like we’re unfamiliar with OOP. In fact the OOP version of Hooks is what we had before. It’s called mixins. Mixins, like other forms of multiple inheritance, suffer from the “diamond problem” described in the post, and many others:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_inheritance#The_diamo...

https://reactjs.org/blog/2016/07/13/mixins-considered-harmfu...

If you have an OOP solution that solves the same problems Hooks solve, but without the downsides of mixins, I’d love to hear it. You’re being vague in your proposed fix which makes it difficult to discuss.

I also want to emphasize we’re not “FP purists”. (In my opinion some codebases take FP way too far making the code very difficult to follow.) In many ways, Hooks help replace those heavy-handed patterns. So I think you might actually like them if you spend some time using them.

> I only see a vehicle as a tool and Tesla is just another impractical status symbol but I absolutely admire the technology

We see things differently. To me, it is the ultimate tool: efficient, reliable, the safest vehicle I can put my family in, and saves me time in the lack of fueling and maintenance required. I have no problem paying for nice tools. It's a sexy car, no doubt! But to me, that is far down the requirements list.

There are a lot of high CBD low THC strains out there, as well as CBD oil that has virtually no THC in it as well (but still with lots of reported value from anecdotal reports). CBD, to simplify things, counterbalances THC, so in a strain that’s high in CBD, there should be less intense psychoactive effects and in a pure CBD oil it’s a lot the positive aspects of cannabis with no psychoactive effects.
It’s also the cutoff for what most people will tolerate in a walk up, and the sixth floor is already pretty discounted, so if you add more floors you’re probably looking at an elevator to boot.
My understanding is that the "unsinkable" claim was never really made. Also, it had more lifeboats and other safety features than were typical of the time.
"Amazon’s Disturbing Plan..."? Come on. I agree this is scary and "disturbing", but doorbell cameras have been around for awhile. It's not like Amazon is the first to do this. Phrasing like that always makes me immediately distrust the article's intent, even if at face value what they are saying is something I agree about. Just because they are openly saying it in a patent, doesn't mean the other companies weren't already doing it in some other sketchy way.

With all that said, what did you think would happen when people openly started allowing listening/video devices on the inside/outside of their homes? Of course people (law or others) are eventually going to want a way to utilize that data if it's useful to them. The same way that I'm sure Facebook/Twitter/etc. work with law enforcement with their data.

As a fellow determinist I would point out that both believing and not believing in it are (non-religious) faith-based.

As for quantum mechanics allowing for the introduction of non-determinism; what part of the human body do people think they can influence? The brain is a neuron-neurotransmitter system, muscles expand and contract based on electrochemical signals, etc. Where in the mind-body connection is the mind/self capable of enacting this non-deterministic influence?

That being said, believing in a non-deterministic universe doesn't make life any less fun nor surprising. It does concretize my sympathy for people who are faced with unfortunate circumstances and carry out actions with unfortunate outcomes.

Are there times where I have thoughts that contradict that belief? Sure. I've accepted the highly contradiction-prone way the mind works. In the end it just makes the most sense to me.

Looks like security people telling ops people they'll need to keep some extra data, and then coordinating with development how they are even going to collect it. Or developers moving ahead on their tasks while somebody later discovers that a schema migration will break a different application.

It's not exactly waterfal that solves this kind of problem. It's the other way around, rigid specifications make the problem worse.

You are probably correct. Their product range is quite limited and probably qualifies as IaaS.

On the other hand, whether or not philosophy is a science is also up for question; if we go by what you're saying, we can approximate "real knowledge" to be "progress", but whether or not philosophy makes progress is hotly debated in metaphilosophy. There are some interesting arguments on this[0] site about it. In particular, as you note, the notion that science is purely empirical/"experimental" is relatively new, and outside of the Anglosphere, at least, it was common to see philosophy take up the name of science through words such as Wissenschaft - both Kant and Hegel published works which had their titles translated as the "Science of Logic", for instance.

But most people seem to agree that the crudest formulation of science as that which is falsifiable (a la Popper) is inadequate; as the SEP notes, astrology is falsifiable and would thus qualify as a science! Furthermore, research has shown that what we regard as "science" published in the Nature journal actually doesn't usually come in the form of starting with a falsifiable hypothesis, but the research is exploratory in the first place.

Defining science is tricky, and I think we should reconsider how much weight we assign to the term as a proxy for the concepts of rigor, progress, replicability, ability to provide new knowledge, to confirm old knowledge etc.

I've lived in two of these types of buildings, I live in one currently. The first one I lived in was at a big state college and was put up in very short time. The craftsmanship, or lack thereof that went into this building was very noticeable. My roommates outlet was at a 20 degree angle, the doors hollow, and the paint was very cheap.

The one I currently live in is a bit better, it's in a Midwestern state capitol and has nicer amenities but the doors are still hollow, and the paint is still cheap.

That already exists but for desperate subsets. Some chemotherapy drugs are themselves ironically carcinogenic - sometimes for the same area they are meant to treat. If they work better than the standard of care they get approved. Since if you already have cancer "might give you cancer in a decade" is an improvement over cancer now - especially since relapses are already a risk.

I think the real issue with FDA regulations are monopolism related more than approval - not that they haven't made the occasional boneheaded move like being reluctant to approve superior sunscreens.

Allowing reimportarion and government bulk purchase negotiations would cut margins and offer good safeguards against monopoly exploitation since if it is cheaper to ship something circularly you are getting ripped off.

Jupyter system has three different subsystems that communicate via message passing: browser state, ZeroMQ and kernel process. Each system has its own leaky abstraction. That is why the version controls and time travel debugging in the traditional sense become impossible. We shoud embrace this challenge and think beyond document based IDEs.

For example, you can think of rendered notebooks as caching. I have even played with the concept of using rendered notebook as the input/data source of another notebook. This looks like a radical idea. But it is exactly how https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/ works.

Robinhood launches 3% checking account
We're having this debate internally. I'm trying to motivate teams currently blogging in Medium to come back to the new CMS we're building for the whole company. Briefly, side A says, Medium is a well-known platform with good discoverability and a great writing experience, and having a popular high-ranked site outside of our core helps SEO. The other argument is mostly, we want our web properties to be more than a brochure, we want the voice of our company to speak "from it" rather than some other random place (even if one presently popular), we should avoid moving between fashionable 3rd party platforms, etc.

I don't know? I think idea number 2 from your list would likely be extremely effective if you had a large enough amount of money so that you could give large amounts to a large number of politicians.

We did that in Ontario. The problem is that the people that care about environmentalism cluster in cities and our votes get wasted because it's a fight between centre-left and left. Out in the suburbs it's people with giant houses, giant trucks, and wasteful thermal choices (gotta cheap out and save that $$$ to buy a bigger house!) so they get nailed by the costs. The difference is fucking comical. My utility bill was $40 (including heat!) the same month it was $420 for someone I know out in the sticks. So now we have an idiot in charge.

Generally anything that is not time sensitive, either because it is about a generic or static topic, or because the author makes regular updates if it is not static. EG: a post on WWII airplanes would be evergreen, as the data is pretty much not going to change at this point. Similarly a regularly updated post on stealth airplane technology could also be evergreen because it evolves with the technology and is presumably always current and relevant.

A post on raising VC funding that was written in 2007 and not updated is not really evergreeen because while it was accurate for the time, it is probably not accurate and relevant in the current funding market.

> the Lisp family of languages is not unambiguously more expressive than other languages

Common Lisp is a local maximum in language programmability (code as data, macros, programmable reader, EVAL, COMPILE, Meta-object Protocol, etc.).

> The problem is, most dialects also have some horribly unexpressive things, too. Dynamic scope, cadadr, fifty bajillion words for "equals", stuff like that.

The opposite is true. Common Lisp is its own code generation target - as such it has both low-level (blocks, go to, basic data structures, ...), mid-level (structures, streams, ...) and high-level (CLOS + MOP, macros, ...) programming constructs. Something like the additional dynamic scope expands the expressiveness of the language.

> No M-expressions means that you can't reliably understand the basic structure of a blob of code by simply skimming.

That's unrelated. You can easily read s-expression code as a human. It may only be unfamiliar to you - just like riding a bicycle is unfamiliar when you have never done it. Once you learn it, it's no issue.

(defun foo (a)
(+ a 10))

is no less readable than

defun foo (a)
a + 10

It's only a matter of a bit training. Humans are actually very good at adapting to different sign systems (think about the differences between English, Arabic and Japanese) - each speaker of the various language groups think that the other language is difficult and the own one is natural.

There is a bit of fear against Lisp code - this is partly justified, because of the extensible syntax - but that's unrelated ti s-expressions - one can have extensible syntax in M-expression based variants -> this creates the same problem of unlimited syntactic structures.

M-Expressions are not easier to reliably understand once you have macros in M-Expressions - which current versions of syntaxes similar to M-expressions actually support. See for example the RLISP of REDUCE.

As far as I'm concerned, posting any content of value on any platform or service that you don't pay for and don't have a good control over is a bad idea. It doesn't matter if it's Medium or Facebook or Instagram or Quora or anything else. If it's, say, on one of the Facebook properties that puts up barriers for people not registered with them (and thus the content is not easily accessible on the open web), it's a terrible idea.

Those who value their content should (when financially feasible) ideally use paid services or paid hosting where the provider's interests and the publisher's interest are aligned.
