As someone who has over 15 years of experience going back and forth between statically typed and dynamically typed programming languages (but who has settled on dynamically typed languages in the last 4 years), this statement resonates very strongly with me.
Also, it ties in perfectly with my philosophy of focusing on integration tests instead of unit tests; the idea that you should lock down the features of your system but keep the flexibility to move around the all the internal implementation is critical.

It's a shame to see the new generation of developers moving back to statically typed languages (e.g. TypeScript) instead of actually trying to understand how to use dynamically typed languages properly. The obsession around achieving 100% unit tests coverage is equally shameful.

Many of the people who came up with or promoted the idea of dynamically typed languages had decades of experience working with punchcards, assembly code and statically typed languages; they were onto something.
Why does the new generation so easily discard this vast amount of wisdom?
Isn't that really where the blame lies? The idea that addicts are going to prioritize an abstract contribution to some far away problem over maintaining their supply, especially when treatment and legal access is very hard to come by, is highly unrealistic.

I love spreadsheets. But not like this. Take a step back and really look at it. This is horrible web UI design. Even as just a spreadsheet it could use a lot of work. For example, it would probably function much better as a single sheet rather than having to cycle through three screens for each conversion.

Have you looked at syncing ZFS snapshots for backups? (that way if you just move a file, it doesn't reupload the whole file; just the disk metadata)
I haven't tried this yet, but if it works well, the implications towards rapid Business Intelligence development are great. In the past, when a user has needed some 15-year-old, macro-infused spreedsheet turned into a more streamline, business-wide process, any data entry components would require roping in webdevs to get the job done, as BI developers don't usually come with a web skillset. The idea that BI developers could just use the spreadsheet to generate a web app not only cuts down the expertise needed, but also solves the problem of training old-timers to use the new process.

If you'd like to join me in surgery or a medical consult one day you're welcome, but currently it seems like you're more keen to tell me about my work than you are to learn from me.
What I have found is that top talent will leave due to the lack of a pay differential between average and high performing talent. We all want our work to be recognized and paying everyone the same is a great way to get rid of the ambitious. If they pay in the top say 5% nationally that's less of a problem but if you are paying whatever glass door says the average is expect churn among high performers as they move to where that behavior is actively rewarded. Similarly such a policy probably encourages low performers to apply. This strikes me a managerial laziness, they aren't going to bother to put the effort in to decide who on their team should be rewarded.

Be interesting to know if there was a pattern of warming with respect to earlier severe droughts before the industrial revolution.

"Historical documents, tree rings, archaeological remains, lake sediment, and geomorphic data make it clear that the droughts of the twentieth century, including those of the 1930s and 1950s, were eclipsed several times by droughts earlier in the last 2000 years, and as recently as the late sixteenth century. In general, some droughts prior to 1600 appear to be characterized by longer duration (i.e., multidecadal) and greater spatial extent than those of the twentieth century."

For raster images there are sixels, and for vector there are the tektronix codes. These are standard in xterm since forever.

Of course, they could be modernized, using real raster pixels and something like a subset of svg. I guess before standarization it would be better to have a reference implementation included in a major standard terminal.

It is not "my grand idea". It is a good idea for the reasons I mentioned in my previous post period. Few actual cars that were and are good plug-in hybrids such as Chevy Volt and Prius Prime are(and in case of Volt were) getting way less publicity than they deserve.

I recently heard Chevy Volt was the first hybrid that didn't just start an internal combustion engine when you pressed on the gas pedal too hard, but it let you drive in 100% electric mode until the internal battery discharged.

Personally I think those cars fail to catch on due to the failure to market them properly.

"Set theory" itself is a bit of an overloaded term; most practical uses of naïve set theory in math do not make use of properties like extensionality or the global membership relation, that characterize axiomatic set theory over TT. Thus, one could also describe the sort of "more natural" systems you reference in your comment as 'structural set theory' https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/structural+set+theory

It's true however that one can do material-set theory inside structural-set theory or type theory, by defining a type of material sets (not necessarily "iterative" however, that's a matter of whether you want to model the axiom of foundation!) and a membership relation on them.

>It's a hell of a lot better than in China.

How do you measure that? I mean what are you comparing? Media reporting? In my opinion you shouldn't even be able to trust internet media reporting on this matter.

For example I think most of us saw the viral video a few weeks ago of a young chinese woman being taken from her apartment. She had left her cellphone recording while police detained her for no apparent reason.

But if we take that as an example. What do we really know? All we really know is what is shown in that video.

It's hard for the video to lie.

Other than that we have no idea who released the video online or made sure it was spread onto western social media. Because as we do know, most of Asia are living in a bubble with their own social media and search engines.

So with that in mind, an organisation could cherry pick information from such social media to spread on western media in order to manufacture consent.

Imagine the roles reverse. A video of a young black male being detained for no reason, have dogs bite him, have officers beat him, released onto asian social media sites with no real context.

I personally think it's much easier to assume that people are people in all parts of the world. Power corrupts in every country. And absolute power corrupts absolutely, regardless of religion, skin tone or cultural background. We're not that different.

I'm a startup founder and I'd like to understand this:

Let's say we have a pay scale that pays you ~15% raise yoy + years of experience.

We have 2 people for this example - one male and one female.

Both join in at 5 yrs of experience and make 100k (example numbers) as intermediate engineers.

A year later both are making 115k.

Now the female engineer goes on maternity leave for 16 months - she get paid at the rate of 115k/yr for that period.

The male on the other hand - makes a little over 130k. On top of that he's at 7 years of experience so he's now a senior engineer - that promotion beings his salary to 150k.

The female engineer is at 115k with 6 yrs of real experience while her colleague is making 150k.

On the face this looks super unfair, but is it really?

She's getting paid based on years of working experience and those 16 months can't count towards it of course

Be wary of arguing from fictional evidence. "Suffering is needed to appreciate happiness" is a deep-sounding meme with not much of actual evidence for it. The utopias described in fiction tend to be either purposefully dystopian (because stories thrive on conflict), or mind-dumbingly boring (e.g. visions of heaven in some religions). It's hard to design an utopia.

If my livelyhood depends on doing bullshit then of course I will also do bullshit. But that doesn't stop me from applying for other jobs or from creating random HN accounts and complain about it. ;-)

I also found it's not bad everywhere though. If you treat the smart people around you well here and there you will get some opportunity to actually change something.

So what I also try to do is getting people out of the mindset that they are actually doing something reasonable when they do this bullshit circus to pay the rent. It's possible when you are really frustrated to spend a few hours here and there to learn the actual stuff instead of the new hip stuff. And over time you will thereby be able to solve more and more problems with actual solutions.

An example from my own life: At one point I really learned about Ansible, Chef, Puppet etc. Then I learned about actual configurations, improved my knowledge of ssh, bash-scripting etc, and in the end I wrote bash scripts that replaced all the Ansible I had used. The results where more flexible, the error messages more readable (thanks to set -x you were able to see what actually went wrong), it was a lot less than 1000 lines of code, and it was a lot of fun to do some actual problem solving for a change.

However, this feels a bit like having a whole programming language for the foundations of mathematics. An alternative would be to basically do the same as is usual in set theory. That is, have an axiom that states that an infinte set exists. This is enough to construct the natural numbers. This axiom can state that there is a Set S and a function f: S -> S that is injective but not surjective.
