A curiously empty article about a film, which like
Holy Grail has barely dated in the intervening decades.

Personally, I feel Life of Brian has aged infinitely better than Holy Grail, primarily because (my fellow) nerds haven't strip-mined it for "quotes."

When I first saw Holy Grail, I thought it was the funniest thing ever. Now the mere mention of "it's only a flesh wound" and other such lines makes me want to hurl myself out of a window. I've probably heard that line recited 1,000 times!

Hardly. Palin and Cleese seemed to perfectly understand
the ridiculous childishness of the comically pompous bishop
and Muggeridge who both repeatedly avoided engaging and
simply derided the film as "tenth rate" etc.

Palin and Cleese were being disingenuous. In a literal sense, Brian is of course not Jesus. However, the film clearly lampoons the arbitrary nature of religion and who gets to be called a messiah and things like that. In that sense it very clearly is a parody of Jesus' life and of religion in general.

(As an atheist and huge fan of the movie, I certainly don't mind. But Life of Brian most certainly does make light of Christianity, among many other things)
SF has a weird advocacy culture that keeps people on the street. I can’t recall any other US city where this problem exists at scale.

I think I know what you're driving at but what you literally said is wrong. I've read many Christians from over 150 years ago jawing on anout faith.

It will probably return to the pre-ACA regime where maintaining continuous coverage of SOME sort will preclude an insurer from using "pre-existing conditions" to deny coverage. COBRA is useful for this especially for those who lose their jobs, albeit at immense cost.

I'm not saying everything's fine, but you do have some options.

I think it's more an existential crisis that can only be solved through some sort of combination of psychotherapy, drug therapy or self reflection.

Either way it needs to bring about a profound philosophical breakthrough that permanently changes your psychology.

I think a lot of problems we have in society are symptoms of psychological causes. Toffler's Future Shock posits that technology is accelerating this societal pathology. I also think that it's an incredibly difficult problem to overcome because there is no mass market or scalable cure... the antidote is a very personal journey of transformation.

The closest thing I've come across to a mass market cure is the profound experience playing Neir: Automata gives you if you manage to get far enough. Unfortunately, this is a philosophical masterpiece that is only going to be experienced by JRPG fans or truely open minded video game connoisseurs. In other words, it has a lot of preconditions. Still, Neir: Automata gives me hope that there could be a mass market solution to the existential malaise suffered in modern times.
Lest we forget, Sony also sold PS3s with the advertised feature of Linux support, which was later removed in a firmware update. The same Sony which sold audio CDs with rootkits.

I miss the idealistic days when hackers held grudges. Don't buy Sony. They are the enemy.
I think Grant Hill said he grew a couple of inches in college. People say Kevin Durant is still growing. The guy is tall as some centers in the NBA now.

I suspect you can keep growing a few years past 18. I suspect you can stop growing a few year before 18 as well. I don't think 18 is set in stone but an average age when people reach their adult height. But I think gaining an inch at 26 is rare. But she is an olympic medalist and a rare person.
Fair enough. If you believe the war on drugs has been a success so far then I guess we don't have much of a basis to debate further.

There was nothing to suggest this woman doesn’t care about being homeless.

This thread is wild, from people calling this woman mentally ill, to lazy, to simply not caring about being homeless. It’s certainly more a reflection on the people making these comments and our society than any reflection on her.

I think its less about a sign function than about showing how optional (i.e. nullable) values work. Most languages have them, and making that possibility explicit is recent best practice.
> The typical argument otherwise is that the AMP javascript is loaded from Google's cache, however these javascript resources allow for a very long cache lifetime (1yr if the page came from the Google Cache), so relatively few page loads will actually end up fetching them from the network for most users.

Christ this is thin as a privacy argument.
1) I think she wants to leave. Why she wants to leave is hard to say. I'm inclined to think it's as much cynical political opportunism as anything else. It's what she campaigned on and has shouted since becoming PM. Certainly she's not in the ERG range of things though.

2) I thought that was pretty much what I'm saying. ERG types dislike May's plan because it has no legally binding guarantee for when the Backstop would end. That's probably a good thing on giving ample time to thread the needle (which may be impossible) on a compromise that won't spike the Good Friday Accord and start folks trying to blow up cake all over again. In this case, cake is people, cars, and buildings.

3. Yes. Cake, as I said, is fantastic. Here though, there's no majority in favor of any particular flavor, and most people are perfectly satisfied to deny cake to everyone that doesn't want their flavor. It's become sort of a "I'll have my cake and eat yours too" situation. I'm not sure the metaphor matches all that well at this point, but I really want some cake right now so I'm sticking to it.
Ah, thanks for clarifying! I'm not familiar with the many facets of religion, so thanks for the help?

On iOS it continues to be very broken, although the difference in scrolling "inertia" was resolved by Apple.

AMP introduces a very non-Appley top bar within the browser, adds new swipe semantics that can be confusing, breaks "tap status bar to scroll to top" behaviour, breaks reader mode (although this is inconsistent), and generally looks out of place. The best way to describe it is like a GTK or KDE app running in macOS. It's clearly not a "native" experience and doesn't really look or act like any other webpage in mobile Safari.
I have never investigated this, but I feel that PL pragamtics and PL-feel is relatively under researched.

I talked about this with colleagues a few years back, but we had very distinctly different feelings about what we were doing when writing C vs C#: C often feels more like writing text that will be translated to code while C# already feels like you are manipulating code. It makes no sense when I write this out but that's phemenology for ya.

The value of the personal trainer for the average person looking to get into slightly better-than-average shape is dispensing advice along pretty well-understood guidelines and helping them overcome their self-discipline issues, which is where speaking with the authority of an Olympian adds value even though the training regimes aren't going to be remotely similar.

Of course, she might want to stay well away from her past career for other reasons, whether it's boredom, self-consciousness, frustration or a strong desire to draw a line under it
(FWIW I know an Olympic medallist who made plenty of money from endorsements and speaking engagements and could probably have had a media career but had absolutely no desire to do that or become a trainer/ambassador after his retirement, choosing to became a builder's apprentice instead, because he liked the idea of building stuff rather than because he needed the money)
I didn't know this was happening in Francisco, that is a very disturbing map. I've been hearing a lot about similar problems in Portland, and the local government not facing them. But I guess it makes sense since the only state that has more homeless than Oregon is California.

I'm not sure who first made this observation, but it's incredible how slowly, everything becomes labor (in the abstract sense of work performed for someone elses profit). With social media, we spend more and more of our free time working for companies for their profit. It is essentially, the ultimate form of labor from a capitalist perspective— where not only the effects, but also the act of labor itself has been externalized from the cost.

I think it's a matter of local culture so to speak. I can see a different attitude in different cities and a 50/50 between "I am not using a dog bag, I am not a dog" and "I'll do what I can not make a mess on the street".
One thing I've noticed recently is that the number of reviews that are for a completely different product seem to be skyrocketing. This was probably the final straw for me when it came to trusting Amazon reviews, and now I usually look to YouTube to get info. Granted, most of the YouTube reviews are sponsored but it seems like the reviewers are almost always up front about this and it helps to see someone physically using the product.

Given that the review problem seems to be growing worse, I wonder what the priority of fixing this is internally at Amazon. Even if I turn to another source for reviews I'll still probably purchase from Amazon if the price is lower, so I wonder what effect this actually has on their bottom line?

It seems like the only real solution is to make it so time consuming to write a review that the economics of paying someone to do so no longer make sense. I'm not entirely sure how this could be done. Maybe have a longer length requirement? Force a reviewer to upload photos? Someone once commented here that making the reviews ephemeral or decay in importance over time could be a solution, which I thought was an interesting idea.
You are being disingenuous. I specifically said I didn't think people should be arrested for possession. That's the war on drugs. You are suggesting drug users should get full immunity for any and all of their criminal behavior (e.g. leaving hazardous medical waste in the street where kids can be infected). That's not "ending the war on drugs", that's anarchy.

If you want to be an anarchist, that's your right. But you don't get to mischaracterize people that think we should have laws as 80s style drug warriors.

Wow, glad I got Transmit when I did, even if I didn't realize for over an entire year that they stopped selling it. I had a reason to use it just this weekend when I needed to be able to download something on iOS from Safari for import to another program. Since Transmit could receive anything, I sent the file there, then because Transmit is a file provider, could use it to import to the other, less flexible program. Since it wasn't free, I tested it on my iPad before suggesting the workflow to someone else, but was frustrated that I couldn't find it in the App Store. I guess this explains it, and I guess I'm part of the problem, using it so infrequently.

If this new editor isn't free out of the gate, I am doubtful I'll even try it. I love the stuff of theirs that I own, but I'm not sure I'm willing to gamble on their apps any longer. At least the Mac versions tend to have free trials.

Peachy – The new dating app who put gamification into the core of dating process
Peachy, the dating app that lets you discover your Matches through Peachs!

No more ghosting and "Hey" for conversation starter !

The "Peach" is a challenge, pre-recorded in the app, whose response can be textual, photo, video and audio.

You will need to exchange 3 peachs before you can unlock the chat room.

Peach example;
- Jackpot; Video ; What would you do with $ 1 million?
- Obsession: Audio; Send me the song that obsesses you right now
- Emote; Text; describe yourself in 5 emojis
- Make them talk; Photo ; Take pictures of objects that characterize you!

How it works ?

1 / SWIPE: If you like the profile swipe to the right, otherwise swipe left!

2 / PEACH: After matching, you can exchange peach with your crush!

3 / CHAT: After exchanging 3 Peachs, if she wishes, Madam will be able to unlock the Chat Room!

I have servers that are firewalled off from the wider internet, or indeed not even reachable (rfc1918 ips)

I could get around it by hosting split dns, but that’s quite messy

Even on those that are reachable I’d have to carve out port 80 and forward it somewhere else to do the cert generation.

Another option would be dynamic server names - where the host part contains a lot of information (or no info)

I think you missed the point. The reason the top of the discussion is dominated, as you say, is that the argument is obviously true to them.

Definitely a problem. I think what will really make Fluent take off is if someone can provide good translation tools and workflow. The syntax looks great, but for most projects, I suspect it's impractical to expect translators to write Fluent manually.

Not meaning to be a bad cog in your plan, but why in the world would you go from Fortran to C++. I also would not recommend C, nor a host of other languages.

Personally I would recommend Java or C#. Both require variable declaration and manage memory. Neither support 'goto' but most languages do not these days as the famous 'goto' generates the classic spaghetti code.

I hadn't even considered that. Add to this Google's notoriously absent customer support department and you have a recipe for a lot of frustration.
If the browser were to prefetch search results, it would leak information to all the result pages about the user having done that search. (I once had a blog post accidentally rank on the first page for "XXX". I really don't want to know who is searching for that particular term.)

Google has to know what you're searching for to compute and show the results. So there are few additional privacy implications from the preload.

Some comments on the code, based on Tictactoe example (https://github.com/Microsoft/BosqueLanguage/blob/master/docs...):

1. overall quite nice looking and easy to understand

2. too verbose in places, e.g. this constant structure:

const winPositionOptions: List[List[[Int, Int]]] = List[List[[Int, Int]]]@{
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 0 ], @[ 0, 1 ], @[ 0, 2 ] },
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 1 ], @[ 1, 1 ], @[ 2, 1 ] },
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 2 ], @[ 1, 2 ], @[ 2, 2 ] },

List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 0 ], @[ 1, 0 ], @[ 2, 0 ] },
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 1, 0 ], @[ 1, 1 ], @[ 1, 2 ] },
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 2, 0 ], @[ 2, 1 ], @[ 2, 2 ] },

List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 0 ], @[ 1, 1 ], @[ 2, 2 ] },
List[[Int, Int]]@{ @[ 0, 2 ], @[ 1, 1 ], @[ 2, 0 ] }
};

Has types defined in 10 places, 9 of which are redundant.

Also you are using @{...} for lists and @[...] for tuples; a more usual convention (in e.g. Python or Haskell) would be [...] and (...) respectively.

3. String types aren't intuitive (at least to me). E.g. in this code:

const playerX: String[PlayerMark] = 'x'#PlayerMark;

It appears that a String[PlayerMark] is a subset of String that can have the values 'x' or 'o'.

I would have preferred something like:

type PlayerMark = 'x' | 'o';
type PlayerMarkOrBlank = 'x' | 'o' | ' ';
Perhaps it depends on your average engagement with the app (the official iOS one, to be clear). I only open it once a month or so, and follow only a few dozen accounts. Perhaps it doesn’t know enough about me to target ads or there is some algorithm that avoids showing ads when you come back after a long break.
Indeed. I don't need it much, but the video and audio editing techniques I learned from making YTMNDs has been valuable.
The downside of using separate IDs is that the developer has to "name" each string shown in the user interface, instead of just using the source string as an ID. And as you know, naming things is hard ;-)
