Perhaps there should be apostasy punishments for Python defectors. /s

Python's typing story is far from perfect and rather annoying compared to other languages. Python is good for interacting with the operating system, networking and other things.

But wanting a proper compiler is an honest motivation.
I think that Racket vs Typed Racked is a good example. https://docs.racket-lang.org/ts-guide/

Ideally, you can pick a program in Racket that doesn't specify any type, add annotations for the types of the arguments of functions and the temporal variables, and the compiler will infer the missing parts and ensure that there are not errors in the types. In some programs the compiler need some help, with a few additional annotations.

You can use the type "Any" that means "whatever", but then you must check that the variable has the type that is necessary before using it.

If you CMD Q on osx you get a warning
I've not seen a credible source say that.

The closest I've seen is sources saying that fracking itself only explains a minority of the increase in earthquakes in places like Oklahoma, and that the majority are more properly attributed to other things, particularly the wastewater injection wells that fracking operations use to dispose of all the wastewater that fracking produces.

Which is such an amazingly damn hair-splitty distinction to most of us, but I can see where a spin doctor could have lots of fun with it.

I didn't say it's the only one, but I do think it's big factor in the west's success. And that's what we want: successful problem solving in the space of media consumption for kids and for adults.

Parents absolutely have the right and even the duty to raise their children, a lot of which entails telling them what to do and when. If not even the parents have that right then the state, being a group of people, has even less of a right.
You can have your views about what constitutes free speech, but the fact that US constitution is interpreted as considering hate speech to be free speech is irrelevant to your response to OP, as NZ is not under the jurisdiction of the US. The video does break NZ laws, and the steps that have been taken to prevent its dissemination follow from that. Also, war documentaries generally contain footage of conflicts which have a basis in law, while disseminating ISIS beheadings may be illegal (but IANAL).

As others have pointed out, most countries allow for exceptions to free speech in cases constituting hate speech - the fact that the US does not is a neutral fact, and an appeal to free speech absolutism doesn’t really constitute an argument for why other countries should uphold the same standards of free speech.

On Australia: we have a different political system here to the US, which is similar to NZ. While our governments are different to the UK in that parliament has enumerated powers, we don’t require fundamental rights to be explicitly defined in the constitution. The provision for freedom of political speech for instance was built up when it became apparent that the way in which we want our society to operate requires such an interpretation of our constitution. On the other hand, the US system requires a constitutional amendment for issues relating to constitutional law and fundamental rights outlined in the constitution. Both systems have their merits and demerits, but the fact that ours doesn’t work in the way that the US’s does isn’t an argument against it.
What's cool about KaTeX is that you can integrate it nicely with static website generators so that you can skip the latex parsing on the client side; the client only has to load a font and some CSS, no JS required. I've used that in a blog here: http://stoppels.blog/posts/gsoc-2017-summary
Seems like you've higher chances on stumbling on something accidentally useful when you're trying to do difficult things rather than when not
Just because they are both open source does not mean they share a common goal or methodology. My guess is that KaTeX was written to overcome the deficiencies of mathjax.
"A toddler who learns to build with virtual blocks in an iPad game gains no ability to build with actual blocks, according to Dimitri Christakis, a pediatrician at Seattle Children’s Hospital and a lead author of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ guidelines on screen time."

This is sad. I myself am addicted to computer games but played with a TON of lego growing up. I can easily rotate 3d shapes and a bunch of stuff in my visual eye, and imagine the 'feel' of how it would interact with other physical things and I think its probably somewhat attributed to all those formative years. Internet didn't exist or when it did , ran at 14.4kbps, not very compelling. Can't believe the struggles modern kids will have growing up trying to combat video game / screen addiction.

>But ultimately in Python you’re still having to add extra tests just to catch up with the default behaviour of Go and Rust.

You don't though. The tests you'd write which would catch these "stupid user errors" are basic ones which you'd be remiss not to write in any language.

The fact that frequently developers do choose not to write any tests at all on large code bases does mean that they start to rely heavily on compiler catching 'stupid user errors' but it doesn't have to be that way.

>Go and Rust are better at catching stupid user error.

...if you don't have a basic level of tests, yes.

(although rust does provide certain type level protection against, say, data race bugs which python doesn't).
This. Just to add, aspergers isn't something that can be turned on or off at will, unlike x-ray vision.
I enjoy listening to Indie-Game-Soundtracks, especially while working. Artists like Austin Wintory (Monaco, Larry), C418 (Minecraft), Jim Guthrie (Sword & Sworcery) and Disasterpeace (Fez). I made a Spotify-Playlist with those, and numerous other indie-tracks. [1]

Statically typed languages are more robust, as far as reducing errors is concerned.However, with modern static type checking tooling in Python, for small to medium sized programs, pythons benefits far outweigh its shortcomings.

This is more of a general observation but why are Rust and Go so often mentioned in the same sentence? They are designed around very different use cases such that a direct comparison doesn't seem to warrant as much attention as it seems to get.

This is about an employer making their employment process more accessible, the Alex St. John thing was mostly about the opposite and traded in (to put it charitably) dumb stereotypes.

>There are just a lot of people on HN who see through it

I have seen zero reputable people on HN expressing anything that supports this assertion.

>it's telling that rather than discuss the possibility that trump is clean, you just call them trolls and bots.

Discuss with whom? The "people" who just downvote anything perceived to be anti-Trump or anti-Russia? That's the point. This isn't the first time that pattern has emerged on HN. Obviously, an online community with HN's makeup is a prized target.

Or are you one of those who doesn't believe there have been any bots or trolls or other propaganda aimed at Americans? U.S. intelligence just made it up? Facebook and Twitter just made it up? It's all the Deep State is it? That, and liberal bias in social media?

Trump colluded out in the open and continues to do so. A foreign adversary plotted to help him and a byzantine maze of people around him and his campaign have been indicted, pled guilty, lied about contacts with Russia, etc. But, it's all a coincidence and has nothing to do with Trump, the ignorant beneficiary?

Meanwhile, Trump also oddly and consistently checks off the Russian dictator's bucket list, denigrating his own country (intel community, McCain, etc.) whenever it speaks ill of that dictator. In order to have people overlook all of this, he invents a conspiracy theory that a secret cabal of Republicans and Democrats within the government is plotting against him. And, that neatly explains everything that is not pro-Trump.

Talk about lazy propaganda.

It'a absurd. But, in order to defend him as "clean", absurdity and inane conspiracy theories are required, right down to the complete denial of reality.
I think class/education i.e. social capital is a major factor. Consider that the cohort in this study (linked elsewhere in this thread) are all graduate students. I expect you'd find the effect sizes of this study would significantly increase given a sample of college dropouts rather than graduates.

I'm a dropout from a great Philosophy course: I had pre-existing problems with substance abuse, and addiction vendors like Reddit and YouTube allowed me to pour away my attention in a similar way when the coursework load (and my stress) increased. Smartphones provide yet another vector for existing psychopathologies to play themselves out.

This vindictive industry damages social cohesion and changes destinies. I now sell second-hand phones in a major UK city, and my experience is that surveillance capitalism/the digital addiction industry is cleaving out a new underclass from the working class: as a child, your membership is determined by whether or not your parents are addicted to smartphones.
Type checking as an add-on is okay but it is not the same thing as a statically typed language.
Yes, yes you can! Fantastic, thanks for the link... I will definitely be adding to the view count.
Regarding tha avatars manned by strangers to help people feel good, they fall into a strange area where I don't know what to think about them. On one hand, it's clearly a fake relationship if the other half of it is in it for the money. I would not want that upon myself, as I view it as somewhat meaningless. On the other, it seems to have a positive effect on one's happiness, and hiring caretakers seems to operate on the same principle.

Is there a conflict of interest, where paying for someone's attention would incentivize that someone to become a disproportionate part of the other person's life?

If there's a difference between "real" and "fake" relationship, then that difference reminds me of filling a need (of stimulation?) using drugs: the drug makes the need go away, without the taker being stimulated in any useful way, "Brave New World" style.

एक औरत की यौन इच्छाओं स्वाभाविक रूप से पिछले कुछ वर्षों में उतार चढ़ाव हो रहे है.यौन इच्छा का अधिक और कम होना सामान्यतः गर्भावस्था, रजोनिवृत्ति या बीमारी जैसे प्रमुख समस्याओं या आपके पार्टनर से रिश्ते के कारण बदलता है, हालांकि, अगर आप पत्नी की सेक्स इच्छा के कम होने या सेक्स इच्छा के बिलकुल न होने से परेशान हो रहे हैं तो कम सेक्स ड्राइव, वाली जीवन शैली में परिवर्तन करने और सेक्स इच्छा को अधिक करने की कई तकनीक है जो आप के पार्टनर की यौन इच्छाओं को बढ़ा सकते हैं. तथा कुछ दवाये वादा भी करती हैं.

But in all seriousness, I use aXe-Coconut[1], headingsMaper[2]. Then tab through the page and make sure you can get from top left to bottom right. The cursor[focus state /ouline] should be visible the whole time and you should never lose your place.

When you are done that, if you have a Mac turn on voiceover with Command+F5 and use Safari or Chrome (more aria-support). On Windows, download NVDA[3] and FireFox. Again use the keyboard to go through the page, but listen to the screen reader and make sure everything is spoken like it looks. So a button should say, "Submit Form Button" etc. Anything that doesn't say anything, ie, " button" or say something different from what you see needs work.

If you're a plutocrat who can do whatever he wants, you're still going to be using a phone or laptop to run your empire. Sure, you can decide to take time away from it, but I still haven't come across anyone who brags about how they don't use a screen.

The other thing is the nature of human contact. It's one thing to be close physically to someone, which until recently was the only form of contact. But I find that having internet services allows me to contact more people than ever before. You can reach out to find exactly the people who interest you, regardless of where they are. You can keep old friendships alive with a few minutes of typing each month.

Back in the days before the internet, you had to very wealthy to have friends in faraway places. It's not everyone who could do a Grand Tour of Europe while writing poetry and meeting a variety of interesting people.

What you're actually saying here is "Using Go I'm going to leave the application with unmaintained versions of its libraries", which is a bit of an alarm-bells statement from a security point of view.

It's perfectly possible to build a python application that is extremely reliably tied to its dependencies, you just have to avoid the default python package "management" solutions that get shoved down everyone's throat (pip, virtualenv, pipfile, tox and the like). I've been building python projects on top of Nix for years and have managed to maintain stable and reliable results.

I'm right with you. I grew up on the cusp of the internet's explosive growth. I got online every chance I could get, but until I was in my mid-teens our internet was dial-up and I wasn't allowed to monopolize the phone line.

I still spent a lot of time on computers, but without the internet it was a very different dynamic, IMHO. You had to engage the critical-thinking bits of your brain a lot more, since answering questions didn't involve inputting those questions into Google and having StackOverflow/Wikipedia/random blog posts give you the answer sans any of the process/context required to arrive at that answer.

I also spent more time interacting with things physically too. Lego (parents bought me a Mindstorm kit one christmas), physical books, even just tearing apart old computers and putting them back together.

> A common gripe is that much research is difficult to reproduce because the programs are not freely shared and/or written for non-portable environments.

This indeed is something which I've noticed and what my supervisors have made a great concern. That is, if I create hacks, I should also rigorously document how to reproduce the results. Luckily, much of this comes naturally during the paper writing process which reduces the amount of labor. Moreover, I think many times I end up learning something new or general inefficiencies in my working processes when writing documentation.

I guess I will know better later the year whether academia appreciates the results of my research. Though this far, I feel much of it is like selling in general, i.e., how you frame the results as a part of the bigger picture. And I guess the peer-review process is good in the sense that someone will call you out if you try to build a claim which is completely ludicrous.

You're confusing static typing with strong typing. Python is strongly-typed, but not statically typed.

Python's optional typing could also be used to get rid of a lot of your assertions.

It won't directly be on top of TeX because TeX itself assumes fixed width but except for the width related directives, all directives would be shared with TeX. Basically everything would be such that existing TeX documents can be converted with little work.
