OOP is not very good on large scales; in fact, it shines at medium scales. Even programs of a few thousand lines of code can greatly benefit from OOP.

We don't know what works at scales that are so large that they are described with cosmological words.

If you consider that the final outcome of any programming exercise is a text file then yes, any editor can be used to produce that file.

Also the quality of the code found in that file is entirely dependent on the quality of the programmer and not the editor used.

However, what a good programmer's editor brings to the table is the ability to produce that same code in a shorter period of time.
That crosses into personal attack, which is a bannable offense on HN. Please don't do this.

Malware (specifically adware) browser extensions or malware on computer. Edit: I mentioned malware on ISP, but I guess Google has their TLS in order so the ISP shouldn't see or be able to mess with the content like they did before.

Not necessarily saying this happened on the user end though, I just outlined how it could happen.
The readability of the arrow seems unimportant, as it's primary use is, from what I can tell, to express a new kind of constraint which can then be produced by inference and used to typecheck a wider gamut of input code with more succinct type annotations. Generally the inference engine assumes all type constructors are matchable - meaning they're both generative and injective (while type families are neither). However, if you want to work with an arbitrary type with unapplied generics, you can't really consider it injective, since you don't know what kind it is, or weather the `f a ~ f b => a ~ b` injective relationship actually holds (it could be a type family for which it wouldn't hold). Generativity, on the other hand, primarily impacts inference and the ability to break a type apart to perform inferences on its parts (where, if assumed for higher kinds, could cause the inference engine to potentially "skip past" the desired inferences, from what I can tell). What the paper seems to be about is that by adding this novel constraint, you can start to work with partially applied types, since you simply need to acknowledge that these two rules need not always hold (when dealing with type constructors), and that so long as the solver is aware of where these rules do not hold, a well-typed and sound program can still be produced.

While _some_ higher-kinded manipulating code needs the explicit ->> syntax to be well-typed, the authors determined that explicitly requiring it (or, likewise, the polymorphic arrow syntax ->^U) would prevent the intent of older code from changing, while the improved inferences allowed just by the new constraint kinds existing allows new flexibility.

Also: I don't think there's anything you could write in the double arrow's place that would be "readable" or "just make sense". I think it's difficult to acquire an innane "sense" for what a higher kinded operation actually _is_. By sticking close to familiar syntax, it should hopefully be easier to grasp as a related concept.

MSG is frequently used despite it's bad rap because the people who dislike it are a vocal minority. Most people say that food prepared with MSG tastes great, unaware that MSG is in it or that some people think they should object to that.
Lol, no. Photon-photon scattering is very rare; you only expect it to happen in very high-energy situations. To scatter enough photons to create a visible image in the air you would need to pour so much energy into the air that it would turn into a plasma. A deadly radioactive plasma that explodes outward from your holographic display and kills everyone nearby. This would not be considered practical.
The whole Pinterest thing grinds my gears so much. It shows complete incompetence from Google as they let this kind of bullshit slide. Not to mention that Pinterest doesn't let you see the actual image without signing up. Like, seriously?
In the distance constraint, won’t the point always land _on_ the circle? The visualisation shows that it can be inside the circle too.
That I can believe, assuming a detailed analysis in a lab. But snap judging from a distance? Cavities are more common in modern populations than before, but hardly omnipresent. I do find it an amusing thought that apparently my skeleton would be assigned a more distant past simply because I am filling free. :D
Rereading the section on NFS again, I suddenly realize that I was foolish to have skipped it as out of date.

I ate MSG (Accent bottle) growing up in the 1980's but didn't think much of it. One day it went away and I also didn't notice since I was a kid.

At 33 years of age, a Dominican was sprinkling the same damn style of Accent bottle on his tacos. I asked him if that was MSG, and he said yes. I borrowed it, put some on my pasta with sausage, ate it, and I have great hatred towards the last two decades of taste augmentation stolen from me as a result of the MSG myth.

Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but cannot a large part of this be addressed by significantly expanding the standard library? A favorite feature of mine in AWS CloudFormation is the ability when writing Lambda functions for the Python runtime to inline the code into the template and sidestep the process of generating and uploading code artifacts. This works because other than the (provided) boto3 SDK, I generally need nothing but the standard library.

If we're talking remote processes, sure, that's understandable, remote resources are not always available.

Another great article on this subject: https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/faile...

Notable points:

- FAA delegated System Safety Analysis for MCAS and many other certification steps to Boeing engineers (what can go wrong with corporations policing themselves?)

- Political pressures on FAA resulted in signing off on some certification steps before they were completed

- Actual limit of MCAS’s command was not known to FAA, 737 MAX operators and pilots

- MCAS failure was miss-classified as a “hazardous failure” instead of “catastrophic failure”, which would require redesign

- MCAS was not even mentioned in flight manuals
I am not going to pull all that shit back up since it would take a lot for me to find my calm afterwards. Suffice to say its structure was fluid and never totally defined, its fuel was sophistic like much of Gurdjieff's maxims (there was a lot of fuel), and its hidden goal was always unacknowledged control masquerading as wisdom. It wound up spiraling out of control. The tight clamps could not hold back the more powerful fuel and people burned themselves out.

What's important is that APL language family isn't a domain-specific one, suitable for some particular tasks in a narrow niche. To the contrary, they are languages of computations, allowing rather short paths from thought to implementation of an algorithm, compared to other languages.

How well does it work with hair? Hair is notoriously hard to select well in Photoshop for most retouchers, so it would be amazing if the automation somehow became better than professional humans doing the editing.

There is some truth to what you are saying but that's not the complete picture to being a manager. You might shed some responsibilities but you pick up a whole lot more. The comment in this thread describes it better than I described being a manager https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19407800

You need to ask yourself how much you like mentoring people, spending time in meetings, playing the politics ... because those are the roles you pick up. Managers still have to explain why bugs are in the system even though they didn't write any code. I honestly think some people are wired for being managers and some are not. Trouble is some companies pay managers more and let them run riot with over developers.

This is just a guess, but since TS is structural and it's inference engine is based on pattern matching instead of constraint solving some of this already applies. Minimally, the generalized type traversal constructors described as a use for higher kinds are already possible.[1] Then again, it was _also_ already similarly possible in Haskell, just _incredibly_ verbose, as it is there. The concepts don't quite transfer 1:1, due to implementation and type system differences (for example, TS doesn't have a solver relying on certain identities holding to generate new inferences or equations), but I think the gist of it (adding what amounts to a "is possibly a higher kind" constraint) could be portable and form the basis of a higher-kinded algebra in TS and allow for a wider array of patterns to be expressed more succinctly. Unfortunately I'm not immediately sure how structural subtyping would work out for something with that kind of constraint, which would need to be solved, too.

I highly recommend reviewing Prices account of his studies in the field: http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html

His conclusion was quite different: that the cause was a lack of nutrients in the modern diet.

It is difficult to point to an example from his work that would clearly rule out the theory of chewing in this article. Sugar and white flour that he pointed to are both easy to chew and low in nutrients.

However, it is hard to think of lack of chewing as the primary factor in tooth decay, and Price was focused first on decay rather than crowding. Price did note a very strong relation between decay and crowding, and in that light it is difficult to view lack of chewing as the primary force in either decay or crowding.

I name all of my computers after elements. I set up DHCP leases so that the last octet of each host's IP is their atomic number. eg: hydrogen is 192.168.1.1, lithium is 192.168.1.3, carbon is 192.168.1.6, iron is 192.168.1.26, etc.

I also tend to categorize machines by elemental classification. Servers are alkalai metals, laptops are nonmetals, consoles are halogens, etc. I didn't have any neat nonmetals left, so I just called my new laptop "iron".

I describe the whole scheme in a blog post I wrote long ago: https://geoff.greer.fm/2009/06/17/hostnames/

The failure of the MCAS system does not indict using automatic controls to adjust the flight envelope of the airplane. Lots of systems do that already:

1. The autopilot

2. The feel computer

3. The device that reduces elevator authority at high speeds

4. The stall stick pusher

5. Hydraulically boosted controls

Modern jets would not be flyable without these, and the net effect of them is to make the jet much safer.

The failure of the MCAS system does not indict the purpose of the MCAS system, either. The problem with it was it continued operating with a failed sensor.
What a horrible design.
This seems:

1 - not to have been published in any peer-reviewed journals

2 - a study on rats

3 - the rats were injected with MSG intravenously

4 - the amount of MSG injected intravenously was 50mg/kg, which would be equivalent to 2.5 grams of MSG for a 50kg person

Because of all of the above, it's not clear whether it's good science, and not clear if any of this research applies to humans, who normally don't inject gigantic amounts of MSG in to their veins.

I tried hard to understand what you were saying but I still see nothing that messages do and Java methods don't, or the other way around.

Everything you say is confusing to me, but I'll just pick on one:

> An Object-Oriented language according to Alan Kay (according to me) then is one where the only way objects can communicate with other objects is by calling methods i.e. by message passing, never by modifying the objects directly from their outside.

What guarantees that when I send a message to an object, that object won't decide to change itself in response?

In other words, that distinction you are trying so hard to build between message passing and function calling is nonexistent.
