This reads almost identical to the rationales against hiring women from past decades. Women did not fit in with the male teams; ingrained misogyny was so common. And yes, they didn't behave the same, and had special needs (they were still expected to be mothers, needed separate toilets installed, customs like having the boss over for dinner prepared by wife didn't work, weekend golf and the bloke talk was unthinkable with women along), and required coworkers to adapt and change, as acceptable behavior around the work place was not acceptable around women at the time.

Team fit shouldn't be the only criteria, and shouldn't be a criteria at all if you have a cultural problem. A company that has decided it needs to hire more women or fewer arseholes or has a staff burnout issue or high staff turnover does not want to keep hiring the same type of people, and that is what you get when you are hiring on team fit. Beyond ethical issues, a company can decide on purely economic grounds that it wants to be hiring neurodiverse workers, and that might mean losing people who are unable to adapt. And you probably want to lose them, given that there is more acceptance of the neurodiverse elsewhere and your team members will need to deal with them, even if you don't hire them yourself.
That critique is a bit unspecific but I tend to agree.

I have heard good a stuff about "gradulizer" though. It uses a gradual type system instead of dialyzers success typing.

> Almost all of these concepts could easily be learned in a few weeks by a talented engineer with strong fundamentals in software design and computer science.

The most important 67-80% of front-end work can probably be learned in a few weeks by an experienced engineer who already has a high level understanding of the web. The last 20-33% hides some things that are trickier to wrap your head around, along with more than a few WTFs, and a never-ending stream of subtle cross-browser differences.

It may still be plausible that a talented engineer with strong fundamentals in software design and cs could cover the ground quickly. But the message of the "don't call yourself a programmer" piece might be understood as being as much about how you're going to spend your time as it is how you're classified professionally (though those are certainly related): are you a stack-whisperer, or are you a badass problem solver with expertise in translating a problem domain into a formal-ish system which enables expands the capabilities of the human system (and networks of machines) it's embedded in?

My bet as someone who did years of front-end focus is that for all but the truest 10xers, if you focus on front-end and try to be thorough, your risk of being a stack-whisperer jumps dramatically because of how much of your time corner-case ephemeral arcana will chew up. Front-end is certainly not the only place in the industry where we've let that hazard run away with the lives and time of too many talented people, but it's a popular one.

It doesn't assume that. (Explicitly doesn't; that's step 9 of 9, with modern humanity at step 8.) It just observes that we have no evidence of extraterrestrial life spreading out from their home system and colonizing the universe, and discusses some possible reasons for that.

I'm struggling to find the paper now, but I recently read an analysis that asserted one of the primary reason wage growth feels so stagnant is that rent rises almost as much as wages, and that landlords are fully capable of absorbing all the new money that enters into an economy because their resource is so scarce. I do think that before introducing UBI you would need to deal with any industry that has shown it is not being driven down to the competitive prices we would expect to see in a market.

> The most direct route typically goes too far north.

This only happens when departure and arrival are both in the Northern Hemisphere, if that's the case, great circle routes appear as curved towards the North when plotted on a 2D map.

But here we are going from Northern to Southern hemisphere, so the great circle route will appear S-shaped, and the middle section will not be very far away from a straight line drawn on a 2D map.

I am of the view that interface{} is the worst of both worlds with regards to static/dynamic typing. Dynamically typed languages typically have type coercion and structures that make dealing with vars with unknown types easy.

However golang doesn't have that. So you get the danger of a dynamic language without the features that make powerful.
> Disney+ OTOH seems to have the drm features kranked up to maximum draconian settings

Is this likely for legal reasons then? Maybe Disney doesn't want OS's outside of the main consumer audience to have the ability to stream. Linux could be feared for capturing streaming data and scraping sites. It's a lot more customizable of an OS.

Sort of like when Sony dropped Yellow Dog Linux on PS3.

What other non Linux devices are having this problem?

Utility for easy management of tensorflow containers
This was very well written. I am pleasantly surprised.

Another concern is that DOH will complicate content delivery to users. Today, content delivery networks
(CDNs) host multiple instances of web content on geographically dispersed servers. This creates
resiliency for web services and helps to deliver content to users more quickly. If ISPs lose the ability to
view users’ DNS queries, they will still be able to route users to a CDN, but not necessarily the closest or
most efficient CDN. Technical measures that may alleviate this concern include sharing some user data
(like general geolocation data) and CDN load management tactics.

Is this a real concern? Don't ISPs just route on IP addresses?

Other potential implications of DOH implementation involve issues such as international data flow and advertising competition.

What on earth is this referring to?
This is definitely something I think about when I think of NOAA and USGS. I’ve been surfing in California since the early ‘90s, and have spent many hours listening to the buoys being recited over the weather radio. We knew exactly what times each hour our relevant buoys’ readings would come on, and we’d constantly be tuned in to see if there were any changes in swell.

And today, the lifeblood of many surf forecasting websites is based on this data.

This use case is basically all I think of when I think of NOAA.
The only thing that I need to keep track of is that the idea of no-overlapping windows. The hotkeys behaves differently depending on which windows your mouse is on. Here is a example on the case: C on 3d windows trigger circle select tool, but C on the outliner create a new collection.

But this behavior has exception. Sometimes some keys have global effect. For example, Shift Space always runs the animation.

> Who even watches movies on their computer anyway.

> Multiple factors are involved in the development of myopia [18]. Both genetics and the environment play a role in the development and progression of myopia. Many epidemiological surveys have shown that excessive close-up work, a high level of education, and participation in fewer outdoor activities were important environmental risk factors for myopia [9,19–24]. Genetic factors have been proven to play a significant role in the development of myopia, and several genes are associated with high myopia [18,25–30].

Go has generic types the same way Python has macros, or the same way C++ templates is a functional programming language.

C has void *, writing generic code using it is hell. Enough so that people went through a lot of trouble creating C++ and later Rust to escape it.

I'd say the type casting from interface{} to whatever you assume is in there qualifies as different.

Pretty much every single aspect of these languages is different from what I can see, the only thing they have in common is included batteries, the rest is growing popularity and consequences thereof.

That's one of those "good luck" scenarios. Building your own homebrew computer, or your own OS is a hobby for many. If you push the people behind them, and make a market for them, you'll make them popular.

The internet itself is complex, but not so complex that determined actors cannot build their own mesh networks.

And whilst governments are trying to erode encryption everywhere, it won't work in the end. They may be able to take secure encryption out of the hands of civilians, maybe. But they can't take it from the pirates.

And as for the incoming "no one would be that determined" argument, cracking chips to let consoles play pirated games have existed for a long time, and the average person did actually seek them out... And found them everywhere. If you make people build the infrastructure... They will.

Sure they exist but most of the older people I’ve been getting to know are very kind interesting people who don’t fit that stereotype at all.

I'm not sure about these days, but I do remember being hesitant about opening PDFs 12+ years ago, before I switched to MacOS (Safari has always had very good PDF display ability via OS X), and before all the major browsers had built-in PDF display (PDFs would often be downloaded as a file, which would trigger the opening of some PDF viewer shareware pre-installed on Windows). Terrible UX back then.
Yes, I’ve seen a lot with old formats. I don’t think the bitmaps themselves are a problem, I already have a bunch (maybe they are faux bitmap though, not sure actually). And they don’t need to be woff though, that just adds some compression and prevents installation. The latter of course not being an issue for the fonts that are featured here.

I am kicking the hornets' nest because IT is in a really bad shape because of the GNU/Linux monoculture and I want for things not only to change, but to effect change. GNU/Linux got to where it is by users bitching about how great it was for two decades, so the theory goes it should work for anything else, especially where that something else is superior.

And also, I have no fear of hornets or their sting; I've been stung enough times. I have never cowered and I'm not about to start now.

To add insult to injury, I am forced to work deep in the bowels of Linux and various GNU tools like GCC because of the current market conditions, so I get to "live the dream" every day.
