I know it's the internet, but you seem to projecting a certain tone onto my statements that wouldn't be there. I don't know where you got "justice driven opinion having" from, it's mission-driven opinion having. They need to know I can code my way out of a shoe-box, and in return I need to know they can lead a team of engineers through a Chuck-E-Cheese ball pit.

Someone who gets defensive about an honest, neutral-tone question about their interview process is likely going to be defensive about more important decisions, which means they take feedback poorly and are likely a poor leader. This is assuming I'm talking to a hiring manager and not an HR rep.

I don't apply to missions I'm not willing to work overtime for. If I'm going to make sacrifices for whatever my employment does, I require that my leadership shares my commitment and is fundamentally competent such that they don't needlessly waste my sacrifices. In any interview I'll be probing for that as respectfully as I can, just as they'll be probing me for technical aptitude and whatever character profile they're looking for.

As disgusting as it is, it isn't a crime to say you agree with a terrorist's message or like what they're doing. Unlike in New Zealand, you can't be imprisoned for expressing thoughts or spreading information (like the shooter's manifesto).

That said, there's nothing stopping them from putting such people on a watchlist, and if there was anyone deserving of being on a watchlist, it'd definitely be the people on 8chan /pol/ worshiping the shooter (so nearly all of 8chan /pol/).
Ukrainian politics was always a TV show with a ton of populism and anti-establishment vibe was always there, so it’s the other way around — toxic electoral culture spilled over to the West.

Haskell doesn't force anything, but it does make some pretty strong suggestions. Haskell suggests immutable data, pure functions, and algebraic thinking. You can make your data mutable, do everything in the `IO` or `State` monad, etc., because Haskell doesn't force structure on your code -- but the suggestion is still there, whispering in the back of your mind.

(This is what I love about Haskell, BTW, so please don't read this as a criticism.)

The "food pyramid" you saw plastered all over your school cafeteria was concocted and distributed by the Dairy Council, a powerful marketing organization that has succeeded in establishing taxing authority over dairies in many states. If you wonder who's paying for "eat more cheese" billboards, they are paid out of that tax. It is more of an advertising cartel than anything dairies want.

As you might expect, it is the billboard owners and poster printers who benefit most from the expenditures. The American Cancer Society, similarly, is mainly a printer of junk mail.

> If Iran didn't attack the ships who did?

Iran's regional rivals, Saudi Arabia and UAE have been staunch proponents of a US attack on Iran and they stand to gain enormously if such an attack happens: a major oil supplier gets removed, increasing demand for their oil; the war increases the price of oil; their only serious rival in the region gets destroyed; and to top it all, it will be at no cost to them—US will pay for the war with money, lives, and reputation and they stand to gain all the benefits.

It would be very convenient if Iran does something to legitimize, even force US to destroy the country to rubble, wouldn't it?

> Enough people inside government would be horrified that it would 100% leak immediately if not beforehand.

Saudi Arabia does not have the same limitation. If they could orchestrate and get away with Khashoggi murder in another country, a tanker attack in their backyard is a piece of cake for them.

This seems like the correct answer to me. Easier said than done though, or so one might think.

> and I am old enough now to know this will never happen in a society that values Instagram influencers and Black Friday over common sense and wisdom

I disagree, but then maybe I'm not old enough. :)

There are certainly far more reasons to be pessimistic than optimistic about the whole thing, but I reasons for optimism are definitely there, they're just very difficult to see.

As for the lack of common sense and wisdom among the masses, I don't think that's a major obstacle. Look how society has changed with respect to racism and sexuality in recent history - sure, it seems like it took a long time, but that's a relative judgement. As an example of how things can change more rapidly, look how public opinion on trade with China has changed in just the last 6 months or so - we went from "Trump thinks trade is a zero sum game" to "China is an evil empire". A little hyperbole perhaps, but it's pretty hard to complain something very interesting didn't happen there.

But even if our political and thought leaders continue to stand in the way as they divide and conquer the masses, I think they have their work cut out for them on more than one front.

I don't think this is right. The copyright of the BSD/MIT licensed code remains with the original authors who should be attributed in the textbook (as per the license). Since these authors have permissively licensed their code you're free to use it in your own project (as long as you also include the original attribution).

After talking with the other contributors of the doc, we decided on not going into further details.

We acknowledge the need for reproducible investigation, but the document did not explain in a scientific manner how we reached such outcomes. We had to draw a line to keep the document on point with our message. Adding hashes wouldn't really make a significant difference.

We'll make sure to keep this in mind if we do write a follow-up with details on reproducible checks thought. Thank you for your insight!

Fortunately much of the world has already settled on an endianness, and the one that happens to be most logical to process (byte offset n has weight 256^n, much like bit x has weight 2^x.)

In the future, hopefully big-endian machines will be as uncommon as bytes that are not 8 bits, and the only protocols still using it are the ones which were designed long ago.

When we talk about whether or not deplatforming "works" we necessarily have to define our goals. If your goal is, for instance, to be able to find as much hateful content on your platform of choice -- deplatforming absolutely doesn't work. If your goal is to allow fewer outlets for hateful groups to recruit new members (this is my goal), it's working fantastically. Almost better than any other tactic right now.

You are revealing your biases and the distortion of your particular information bubble. Many of the people being name-called and deplatformed are not hateful and are not parts of hate groups. If you could transcend your particular bubble, you'd see that many people who are simply normal Republicans, libertarians, centrists, and independents are being caught up. There are huge numbers of people who are essentially being lied about -- in the most transparent fashion, supported with circular references produced by biased activists that ultimately don't go to any documented facts. What this abuse of "moderation" is actually doing, is fanning societal outrage and destroying the credibility of the Left.

Yeah, I'm not sure how the term applies here. If you're using Luna to make a program that generates output, "what you see" (the node graph) is definitely not "what you get" (the output). Maybe you can have an inline preview, but it's not what you're editing.

WYSIWYG describes domain-specific tools that let you manipulate the final product directly (or a draft of it), without having to look at any kind of source, be it a node graph or source code.

Not clear they considered the warming ocean as separate from warming climate.

“The rate at which our weather has been warming in recent years could be temporarily slowed down,” they told me. “We don’t know the exact rate at which the sea is now rising. We need long-term world-wide evidence which the International Geophysical Year may give us to assess accurately the changes that seem to be taking place in the ocean and the ice.”

For snow to stop forming at higher latitudes the climate would have to heat up quite a bit.
FAAAAARK THIIIIS

Right, rage hat on, I'm not buying this. It's an absolute fucking classic on how not to write a maths book. From the PDFs, some crap examples then.

"It is also standard to define two notions of validity. The first is semantic. A valid inference is one that preserves truth, in a certain sense. Specifically, every interpretation (that is, crudely, a way of assign-ing truth values) that makes all the premises true makes the conclu-sion true. We use the metalinguistic symbol ‘|=’ for this. What distin-guishes different logics is the different notions of interpretation they employ."

Wut the utter fuck does that mean? What could "preserves truth, in a certain sense" possibly mean? What the fuck is a metalinguistic symbol anyway? He goes on:

"The second notion of validity is proof-theoretic. Validity is defined in terms of some purely formal procedure (that is, one that makes reference only to the symbols of the inference). We use the metalinguistic symbol ‘|-’
for this notion of validity"

I think he's saying ‘|=’ is the human version of 'therefore' or 'we can deduce', and the formal version is ‘|-’, which corresponds to my understanding but if I didn't have a background in this I'd be fucked. This stuff is not complicated and it's mainly not hard, but it is fucking impossible if you write like this.

Later on we have " ⊃ " which is "material conditional" - da fuq? This is logical implication I think, it is standard in classical logic as an arrow '->' but he neither uses that nor relates it to the arrow symbol, nor even gives it the standard name - I have never ever seen it called a Material Conditional. And he doesn't give its definition so I can't tell. Later he gives a tree form of this I've never seen before but can sort-of understand so I guess it is logical implication.

And how does material equivalence '≡' differ from equality '='? Explain this shit please.

"An interpretation of the language is a function, ν, which assigns to each propositional parameter either 1 (true), or 0 (false). Thus, we write things such as ν(p) = 1 and ν(q) = 0." If I didn't know what this meant I'd be lost.

"A branch is closed iff there are formulas of the form A and ¬A on two of its nodes; otherwise it is open." I'm not sure what he's saying although I know it's actually very simple. It's something like 'if you get x on one branch and ¬x on another then you have a contradiction, which means that branch is junk because it's claiming something is true while the other is claiming exactly the same thing is false; they can't both be true. Except that's a bit wordy and more importantly I'd need to sit down and consider the scope; what a branch actually is and how far back up the contradiction goes.

This is a lesson on how not to do it. I'm getting lost and the 'branch is closed' example is on page 8! I would love to understand the stuff in this but the medium of conveyance, to wit this book, is a car crash. At best it's lecture notes but you'd better have the lecturer around.
My pleasure. The first three are entries in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. I suggest reading the first link (entry titled "Fundamentality") first, as that will help provide context. The second link (entry titled "Metaphysical Grounding") provides a somewhat dated, but solid overview of the literature and is what you should read right after "Fundamentality". I say somewhat dated only because the entry is from 2014, and 'grounding' sort of took off around 2009 and has accelerated past 2014. The third link (entry titled "Ontological Dependence") can be skipped, but if you want additional conceptual and historical context, then I suggest blitz reading it.

The rest of the links are to books or papers/articles which I think you might find interesting.

The very last link is to a rather obscure paper (I randomly found it a year ago) from 1997 that is not on grounding, but is related in some way to the 'structure all the way down' perspective I suggested. The papers' argument is incomplete, attempts to do too many things at once, and presents a rather naive and elementary framework for a 'structure all the way down' view. However, it is (in my opinion) a rare gem. It raises a number of important questions and issues that have (to my knowledge) not yet been addressed by anyone within academic philosophy, or other relevant disciplines for that matter. These questions and issues go unaddressed because the monadic assumption(s) is, seemingly, so deep seated and fundamental to most people.

The way I see it, either 'things'/'substances'/'elements' are primary and 'relations' are derivative/secondary, or they are on equal footing, or 'relations' are primary and 'substances' are derivative/secondary. There are only three possibilities. I'm inclined to believe either the second or third are true. If you put a gun to my head and made me choose one, I'd say the third is true.

> I didn't like some of its design choices, e.g. how iteration and conditional statements are done is overly complex. There are natural ways of doing these in dataflow which LabVIEW doesn't use.

would you mind elaborating? i would be interested to see what you mean. if you are thinking of more functional ways like maps, filters, folds, and the like, i have done that in labview. there is limited support though since labview doesn't have lambdas, but you can pass around functions. however, that being said, i don't really see a problem with the for and while loops in labview, and i can't see how they are overly complex. they are about as simple as it gets. condition structures could be improved, but i also don't quite see a vastly different way to do it but rather tweaks that could be made.

> Also, type inference is actually simpler to implement in visual dataflow than it is in text-based languages, yet LabVIEW lacks it

i am not for sure what you mean here by saying labview doesn't have type inference. labview is constantly running a type propagation algorithm that checks whether all the types are hooked up correctly. additionally, labview has malleable VIs, which is even more advanced. you can develop functions that are polymorphic across types. you could do this before malleable VIs using polymorphic VIs, but you had to manually create them. now, when wiring a type to a malleable VI, labview will dynamically (at edit time) adapt the malleable VI's types, primitives, and subVIs to adopt the new type. if it can't, it will warn you. you can also wrap code with a type structure such that different code is tried depending upon the type. again, it will check if a wired up type has a given structure case that fits. it is similar to pattern matching on types.

> Finally, every dataflow program is a directed graph, which is the most general data structure there is, so it really ought to be a fundamental data type - like Lisp's S-expressions are.

i agree that there should be a more fundamental type. i am not aware of any language that does so, and even in the text-based world, lisp and scheme stand alone in this feature (not surprising i like those languages as well).

I'm nothing more than an amateur musician but I had the chance to study with Charlie Banacos and one of the things Charlie emphasized was avoiding relying on muscle memory.

All the exercises I received from Charlie forced me to be consciously engaged in the act of playing- never outsourcing things to muscle memory.

I think that largely this was to avoid falling into mechanically playing over changes and to be actively engaged in thinking about the music at the moment it was happening and responding to it creatively.
