I live on 80th in the UWS and there is similar construction that's been going on behind my building since I moved in last year. Luckily I'm not home during the week, but they still fire up the jackhammers at 8:00 AM sharp on Saturdays. One time I heard a guy screaming "f-you it's f--ing saturday" out his window at them for like 5 minutes straight. The hammering stopped for a brief instant, then immediately resumed, drowning him out.
Everyone is a loser except for the investors. If you really take it to the logical conclusion, the business model is Dumping [1]: capture the market, drive out everyone else, then jack up prices when you are the only show in town. And the winners in the endgame are the investors.

I know it's probably simplistic, but I'm horrified by the shift in the password vault market from local control and security to this cloud-based model. Even my choice, 1Password, has gotten on board - though it's still possible to store locally and avoid their sync, thank goodness.
I think by "feasible", the author here means "the features required to support monads in rust could feasibly be added" not "it is feasible to implement monads is rust as it exists currently".

That was my first reading, your reading didn't occur to me, so I don't see that the title is especially misleading.
Did you consider an SWT-like approach, where the toolkit uses each platform's native widgets? Porting SWT to the Web platform might even be feasible.

Fair enough and you are probably right. I come from the position that you can only beat a dog so long before it bites back. But I feel like this could have been prevented if developers weren’t so enamored with the idea of developing games. Yeah it’s cool but it’s not cool enough to throw your dignity away.
Good thing that the NYTimes is finally raising awareness about this issue. There are so many alternative sectors that these highly-skilled workers could pivot to, not just the developers/coders but other roles as well, e.g. graphicians, 3D artists, UX designers etc. The pay and conditions in the rest of the industry are so much better, there's really no comparison.

If you can still compensate or halt it by speaking your mind, your leadership still has a long way to slide down the toxicity scale.

A Learned Representation for Scalable Vector Graphics
In my experience it was the ic level. Leadership would say, what's a reasonable timeline for feature x. The engineers would spend two hours arguing that estimates are bullshit, then give a trivially small (and obviously wrong) estimate.

Leadership would say, are you sure? Engineers would basically flip them the bird and say yes. Then inevitably be late.

I get it, estimating is inexact. But there's a clear difference between "I broke this down into little tasks, and I think we're looking at x" and "implement multiplayer? Four days."
Jason Schreier has been pushing for game developers to unionize for a while now.

In the case of programmers, it really doesn't make much sense. There's a lot of BS that can come with unions. They have transferable skills. It's just easier to change jobs.

For more specialized workers a union probably does make sense, eg: 3d artists, game testers.

But I think union organizers are really only interested in the programmers, because they'll probably generate the most dues.
You dream of legally exploiting others? That's depressing.

> For many kids who grew up with controllers in their hands, being a game developer is a dream job, so when it comes to talent, supply is higher than demand.

That's the crux of this entire article in one sentence. This might be an upopular opinion here, but right now the supply of developers overall [across all industries] is much lower than demand. No one is forcing a developer to work for a game studio. It might be your dream job, but if you're not treated well you're a highly talented skilled worker, go work for someone else. Let the supply diminish because of the working conditions and alternatives and suddenly studios won't have the option to treat their employees this way.

Compile-to-JavaScript technologies have come a long way and seem well-suited to porting certain legacy applications to the web as proof-of-concept projects, but I think an API-first approach supporting a lightweight, HTML/JavaScript web framework would have required a justifiable, moderate additional effort, and would not only run faster, look and feel more contemporary, and be easier to maintain, test and deploy, but would put you in a better position to add new functionality going forward.
Fair enough and 100% true. It almost feels like we need to police up the expectations of junior developers and teach them proper work life balance. But they are going to do what they are going to do I suppose.
Who is getting then advantage is arguable depending on the specifics. Tesla is trying to give sustainability an advantage. It will not benefit from the gasoline tech patents of a traditional ICE manufacturer. This kind of patent sharing is pretty common and is done to advance the state of the art, not to grab PR.

> Anyway... I don't think our morals are or can be grounded in morality. Ultimately, "Man is the measure of all things." Morality applies where we decide it applies. There is no higher truth, no underlying rules we can unvover. There is only subjective human judgement and our attempts to rationalize it.

That's pretty much the antithesis of, for example, Derek Parfitt's work, I would say. A lot of moral philosophers would disagree with this.
You missed it. Doesn't matter how wrong he might be, people need to see what everyone has to say. It's not for him, it's for others.

Thanks a lot. I planned to implement virtual SQL tables for a project and wasn’t aware of existing product. This probably will save me a lot of time.
From a comment on the article:
"The normal way to excavate bedrock is dynamite. This would probably not be feasible on this site. But at this rate, from the photo, they are going to be jackhammering for another three years to reach thirty seven and a half feet. I’ve read that in London the Uber rich do these basement pool - theatre complexes all the time under their town houses, but probably digging out dirt. The neighbors should get their council persons involved to pressure DOB to put a blanket prohibition on what is clearly an untenable method of excavation. A Bedrock Amendment: if the site isn’t big or isolated enough for blasting, bedrock is the limit."[0]

In London, lavish basements have become trendy[1], but they don't have to deal with bedrock so close to the surface. The Guardian article only mentions the noise once.

Jason has done great work exposing the dysfunctional and exploitative parts of the game industry.

Hell no, I'll take Airbus or any other manufacturer over this crapware any day, even if I have to pay extra for the tickets. Boeing lost any trust in how they handled this, for very, very long time.

Well, why don't you listen to white supremacists? There are a number of them in America, and they certainly feel aggrieved. Shouldn't they have a seat at the table, to support diversity of viewpoint? What if they've got some points?

Perhaps you know already that the white supremacists are wrong, no matter how many of them there are?

This is the fundamental meta-question of appointing an ethics committee: you have to have some idea, already, of what is ethical. That idea could be—but probably isn't—to follow the world around you in proportion to their beliefs. That idea almost certainly is to follow your own existing sense of right and wrong. You want to find people who seem better at you than reasoning but the same as you in ultimate values. You want people who are going in the same direction you are, just better at getting there.
No name calling is necessary - you can replace "civilised society" with "Europe" and the sentence will hold true for the most part.

Hmm...and young boys are the target market for backup tape systems?

Maybe I should have been more specific: the context was home computers, not the professional systems. I thought that much was obvious.

And even there, do you seriously think that the motivation for those ads was "oh, we must make sure that women don't enter the profession" or was it more "we know that 95+% of our target audience is male" and so they used the same sort of tactics that were used to sell cars and auto tuning products[1]?

This is fun. So basically the web browser becomes a sandbox for Java.

Maybe we can get Spring Boot running in TeaVM instead of Docker. ;)
I think there's a subtle misreading here.

The phrase "leading thinkers" is loaded with meaning. It's a phrase used almost exclusively by one political grouping to mean "people who think just like us". It should be obvious that it can't have any objective meaning (leading according to whom?).

To see this try replacing it with "leading thinktanks". Sounds quite different now, right? Thinktanks are organisations associated with conservative thought. If I heard someone talk about how they were assembling "trusted voices from leading thinktanks" I'd assume the resulting group would have a conservative bent. Maybe it's just me.

It means that expert opinions are inherently untrusted

This is in fact the default viewpoint of large chunks of the population and is a key aspect of conservative thought: it's not as dumb as it sounds either. Problems with the opposite, i.e. expert opinion being inherently trusted:

1. How do you decide who is an expert?

2. Oh, credentials? Credentials which are awarded by ... more people claiming to be expert. How do you know that credential doesn't just mean someone toed the conventional orthodoxy?

3. If expertise is unquestionably real it tends to be concrete and narrow e.g. expertise in how to program computers or construct skyscrapers. It's easy to test claims of expertise by comparison to real world results. But the type of people frequently cited as experts in policy discussions tend to claim to be experts in very vague and expansive subjects like "Asian politics" or "social psychology" or "national security", where testing against reality isn't easy. This undermines the word "expert" in the sense Google has used it here to mean "experts in how to construct AI ethics boards" (where do such people come from again?).

4. Many experts who do make testable results turn out to be frequently wrong and sometimes uselessly so. This is especially true in economics, e.g. mainstream economists failing to predict the financial crisis, health experts being unable to decide if foodstuffs cause cancer or prevent it.

You can't assume that reverence for "experts" defined as people labelled as experts by the media, academia and "leading thinkers" is automatically virtuous or right.

Hmm. I have 4-core i7-4770, but the UI on this thing lags a lot, all widgets generally feels sluggish. Such graphics operations don't require a lot of CPU, though, remember that we used to have 200 MHz Pentiums?

On Firefox it's even worse, looks like it was rendered by 4 MHz Apple II. :|

But if it allows easy porting of a Java app to a browser, then this is still great stuff. Not the most responsive UI, but in case of emergency, why not?
Why wouldn't they give a trivially large (and very safe) estimate? Telling someone you will be finished tomorrow puts the onus on you to explain why your estimate was wrong.
You are right. And to be clear my current work environment is not toxic which is why I can do this as you said.
I'd say that if you want to learn Rust, then this is an excellent project. I'm not convinced that if you want to learn how databases work that Rust is a better language than C: it's more complex in that the checker makes you think about lots of non-db things, and simpler in maybe a non-helpful way, in that the language provides lots of high-level facilities that it might be good to work out explicitly.
> There's a reason hearsay isn't generally admissable in a court of law.

The main reasons are that courts have compulsory process to attain testimony of primary witnesses which makes it generally unnecessary, and that courts are by design intended to work via adversarial process including cross examination, and a indirect witness can't be cross examined.

Needless to say, there are lots of exceptions to hearsay exclusions, too.

History of Microsoft is very long. Backwards compatibility was excellent until windows XP (included). This focus on compatibility has largely disappeared in more recent versions. I am not bashing Microsoft. I love visual studio code. I love the fact that I can edit office documents (powerpoint and word) for free using chrome on ubuntu. Maybe the work Microsoft is doing on Windows Subsystem for Linux will make me come back to windows one day.
Very easy to say, a lot harder to do

Equally, finally leaving the games industry was one of the better things I did.
Well, it doesn't actually assume that - it raises the issue, and provides a basis for discussing it.

When it comes to other animals, I personally tend to give them the benefit of the doubt, though I don't think there is much room for doubt, in the case of snails, as to whether they have inner lives (for example, I think cone snails are dangerous, but not evil.)

AI is an interesting case because the discussion of AI ethics is almost always about having AI behave ethically towards us.
This is also why being an aspiring actor comes with terrible pay, hours, conditions. And it doesn't seem likely to change. There's a long line of people who dream of trying, and they bid down the price at the auction.

I’ve heard the same protest that MITM attack should be changed to “person-in-the-middle” attack. From west coast professionals no doubt.
Can’t argue with that.
Sounds like you’re talking about the tweakers in RVs and the street kids/crust punks in the Haight who have pit bulls and are just living a “lifestyle” or homeless by choice. I think most of them qualify as “ruiners” according to the article, but maybe you disagree. These are the group of homeless I think that are causing 90% of the issues in the city and they know cops won’t really do much so they are constantly pushing what they can get away with like petty theft, stealing bikes, operating open bike chop shops, openly selling and using drugs, camping wherever they feel like... This is the group who are basically ruining quality of life for everyone else and a drain to homeless resources.

I think there needs to be some kind of program and either homeless are enrolled and attending and getting help, or they aren’t allowed to stay within city limits. It’s just really frustrating how the city has done nothing to sort the homeless into people who want help and the people who don’t. I think between the lazy DAs, cops who don’t care, juries who won’t convict, and judges who won’t sentence—we’ve created a situation where no one is actually improving the homeless crisis, just ignoring it. BART has become a de facto homeless shelter. Antioch trains regularly have 5-7 homeless people sleeping in each car during rush hour. I read in SFGate that they arrested 66 fugitives in the Tenderloin in one sweep this week... it just doesn't seem safe to have this level of lawlessness in a major city.

I feel bad for these people because most of them are mentally ill or struggling with some other issue, but this is not the way to run a world class city. There is clearly money to fix the problem, but no political will to actually put the structures in place.
Nah bruh. He's where he deserves to be. Just like the Sackler family, he aided and abetted the destruction of many families and actual death of many drug users.
Pretty sure Trump would be all too happy to send some “freedom fireworks” to SA if it preserves the petro-dollar. The only reason we’re allies with them is because we need a major Islamic power in our corner to provide a counter-balance to Israel, and to be fair the Saudi government has proved to be the most ideologically flexible. The bulk of the population of SA is militantly conservative, and a despot is easier to deal with than a religious populist whose base hates our entire way of life.

But the latter is not a problem for someone of Trump’s moral constitution — just bomb all the peasants to the Stone Age and take over the oil fields (which are already operated by American companies). They’re the best example I can think of as to what a “frenemy” looks like; and the petro-dollar is the only reason “fr” is part of that word. Their espionage activities show me they view America as a machine to be manipulated to serve their ends, not as a legitimate partner in anything.

The Saudi military is, by all accounts, corrupt from top to bottom and almost entirely reliant on American contractors to maintain and result their stockpiles of American weapons. We know where all their weapons are because we built the bases and bunkers they’re housed in. They wouldn’t put up much of a fight, at least not for long. I wouldn’t be surprised if we planned for this and had a back door into all their weapons systems.

Mind you, all of this would be an absolutely terrible idea and almost certainly start WW3 thanks to the cultural heritage around Mecca. But also keep in mind there are a non-zero number of voices in Trump’s base actively advocating our role in starting a biblical apocalypse somewhere around Israel / Syria — so that’s not necessarily considered a negative in the minds of Trump’s base.

But yeah, I think the Saudis may be overestimating Kushner’s influence and underestimating the influence of Trump’s base. That’s the danger of supporting a populist.
Insecurity combined with spinelessness causes people to give the answer they think their superior wants. This is a response that is trained by managers using microaggression.

Unfortunately, immigration in the US is not a meritocracy. It chooses for diversity rather than skill. Having been through the immigration system (as an Indian citizen), I will say it is broken. I have seen Uber drivers from Africa getting a green card easier than I can even though I spent 5-6 years there, studied at a local university, had a good job.
