I thought Nazis were leftist? I think your presumptions about left/right are heavily biased by modern US politics.

Abe Lincoln and the Union were "right" (republican),many of the modern GOPs initial members were free black people. Of course by 2019 standards everyone of that era is far right in the US.

You have to also consider that even now left/right can mean different things in different societies.

Here is one way to put it: billionaires will lie in bed with whoever has their best interest. The group that has their best interest is usually the group that can't acheive it's goals through democratic or other preestablished process. The popular side does not need them, and being popular means doing the bidding of the majority non-rich. If republicans are very popular,democrats will be in bed with billionaires to advance their agenda.

It is a simple economics of supply and demand. IMO, history actually shows how ideology means little compared to ability to weild power.

You like many have this Us vs Them attitude where you've been sociologically engineered to group yourself with certain groups,the same is happening to others. This makes divide and conquer very easy to all available hostile parties.

I think there are plenty of forces at work that desire the fall of the west and America's global dominance. Everyone knows that even if major nuclear powers unite,defeating america in nuclear or conventional war is very very hard and expensive. The best way to dismantle such a large and powerful enemy is from the inside out -- similar to what the wesr did to the USSR. The billionaires have money but money means nothing if you can't spend it and keep it. Nation states control billionaires and billionaires exert a lot of influence on nation states. The American lead liberal world order is not beneficial to nation states all over the world and it keeps getting worse from their perspective. Billionaires are good at moving their money elsewhere,the problem is America's reach is far. You can see how so many parties have to gain from the great american division. I think billionaires backed or encouraged by hostile nation states desire to instill division that can be used to control america and if it comes to it,destroy the west. Bear in mind this is just my opinionated analysis.
You don't need to lock the software in practice. Your customers don't usually bother with redistributing what you're selling. With few exceptions, resellers (designers, web shops, etc.) don't do so either. Basically, if your customers or resellers screw you badly they don't get to piggyback on what you're building.

That's not to say piracy doesn't happen at all or can be ignored. You will find your software on file sharing websites eventually. But, quite frankly, it doesn't matter that much in practice, because free riders eventually come knocking at your door for support or an upgrade -- at which points you go "Mmm, I'm not seeing you in my customer list". And when they're students, they're really just learning how to use your software -- which you can view as free marketing.

How do these usernames / public displays work for people without two names? When you sort by "last name" do you really mean "surname"? Are you going to add more fields for searching and sorting keys, so when 鈴木一朗 comes along you can search by "イチロー" or "SUZUKI" or 4 or 5 other reasonable search terms, and where is he going to be sorted?

It sounds like you're just kicking the problem downstream a tiny bit, and making it slightly worse by adding another point which enforces an invalid data model.

Your last sentence is certainly true but I don't see how separate fields makes it any better (or worse).
Why not be factual without being aggressive?

You’re within your rights, of course, to keep being hostile with facts, but it’s possible to be both factual and friendly.
When you say "modern 3D rendering", do you mean modern native APIs like Vulkan, Direct3D 12 and Metal? In that sense, modern GPU programming becomes about scheduling and co-operative buffer management, along with writing programs to be parallel. There's no great guide for this to my knowledge.

If you mean everything above the graphics API, e.g. modern lighting and shading techniques, there is a wide range of choices. PBR-inspired material response models are now dominant, and I recommend Naty Hoffman's slide deck as an excellent overview of the subject [0]. I can go into more details here if wanted. Haines's Real-Time Rendering is a pretty good reference. Get familiar with math, geometry and trigonometry. I recommend "3D Math Primer for Graphics and Games" by Parberry and Dunn [1] if you need a refresher.

These PNRs are stored on mainframes running software written in COBOL which has not been touched for years. The actual PNR is a flat text document with semi-structured lines as explained in the article.

We never make changes to the mainframes, we just wrap the functionality. The structure of a line cannot change as the industry relies on all airlines using the same structure. If a new "field" needs to be added to the PNR we add it as an "RM" (remark) entry.
I have the opposite experience. My simple OO plane->setSpeed(400) function would become a functional monstrosity that takes in the entire previous world, and return a new World, Military, AirForce, and Fleet objects based on the old ones, to contain a new plane with the new speed.

The entire function is way harder to reason about, because I can't tell from the outside what other parts of the world it may have accidentally modified. The lack of basic encapsulation really turns me off to FP.

Supposedly the best FP answer to the problem was lenses, which would drive the complexity of my code up into the stratosphere. Shortly after trying those out, I migrated my project to imperative OO and haven't looked back since.
Yup. There’s even a community helping.

I see a lot of people playing language lawyer with what it means "to die."

I think another fruitful thing to think about what "for life" means. It is not unreasonable to interpret "for life" as "while living", instead of "until dead."

Indeed, the sentence if "life in prison" is logically equivalent to "no life outside of prison." No one debates the fact that this man is alive now. If his sentence is to live only in prison, then there is no issue.

The interesting case is whether declining to honor his DNR counts as cruel and unusual punishment by extending his term in prison.
Teams that can't keep components of a monolith adequately separated will crash and burn when trying to build microservices. It is far more complex.

In this case I wouldn't worry too much. If you look through those hoax articles, you'll notice that almost all of them barely qualify as stubs (very short) and have few-to-no citations or incoming links. The fact that they survived so long is probably due to the fact Wikipedia is huge and simply nobody noticed them. What good is propaganda if unseen?
But I also have no desire to, since there isn't any difference.
> "you're just plain wrong" can be "I don't think that's correct" or "I feel this may be mistaken".

That makes it sound subjective, unsettled and open to negotiation. Which may be inappropriate when talking about such things that are considered medical consensus.
In a way you're just the messenger, not the expert who can elucidate minor nuances behind the statement.

Perhaps it could be made more impersonal (i.e. remove the "you") and providing a 3rd party as source. But inserting weasel words doesn't help when you try to convey rather strongly established facts.

Thanks for a comprehensive answer, clearing up some misconceptions etc. Much appreciated.
I am answering to someone who conflates hate speech equals to "stating opinions I disagree with". I am glad my example was clear enough to show you how absurd this equivalence was.

> Supporting a democratically elected candidate, especially outside of the conference in question, can not be conflated with claiming "Arabs are inferior" at a fucking talk at the conference.

How about "African countries are shitholes"? "Mexicans are rapists"? You wear a person's symbol, you claim ownership over their ideology. And I know historical comparisons are tired, but there are a few racist and genocidal leaders who were democratically elected.

As a European friend, I am sad you are at that point in the US, but yes, one side of your politics is really fucked up to the point of being toxic. It is racist and misogynistic. A community has to choose between being inclusive of women and minorities and being inclusive of people who reject them.

> You're fighting ghosts to feel self-righteous.

When you grew up in some parts of Europe, you learn to fight when some ghosts rise. More than half of the people I work with could not contribute in a world where sexism and racism would reign.
I also have a roman numeral suffix and experience the exact same issues all the time, its insane! I understand what my parents were going for with the suffix but that tradition will end with me if I have kids.

The credit agencies also started attributing debt to my name from someone with a very similar name and social. Of course they don't like paying their loans and so every once in a while my credit tanks while I go through the process to get it cleared up. As far as I've been able to find there is no long term solution to this, I just have to deal with it every couple years.
They may be slower than planes, but they were not as slow as people think. (Remember that "airship" is not the same as "blimp".) They easily did 100+kph in a strait line. That makes them faster than road travel, and very much faster than marine crossing times. They might not ever compete with 747s but there are some business cases for delivery of goods or provision of information services (airborne cell towers).

People have been using microservices for decades. Think about the UNIX filesystem. Applications don't know anything about writing to disk blocks, the filesystem service handles that. And the tools that interact with the filesystems can stay very focused to the task at hand. cp only knows how to copy files; ls only knows how to list directories. If you want to add a new feature to ls, you need not worry about breaking cp.

On the "web application" side, we've also been doing the same thing since the LAMP days. Your web app has no understanding of how to efficiently store records; the database service handles that. Your web app has no idea how to efficiently maintain TCP connections from a variety of web browsers all using slightly different APIs; your frontend proxy / load balancer / web server handles that. All your app has to do is produce HTML. It's popular because it works great. You can change how the database is implemented and not break the TCP connection handling of the web server. And people are doing that all the time.

All "microservices" is is doing this to your own code. You can write something and be done with it, then move on to the next thing. This is the value -- loose coupling. Well-defined APIs and focused tests mean that you spend all your time and effort on one thing at a time, and then it's done. And it scales to larger organizations; while "service A" may not be done, it can be worked on in parallel with "service B".

That said, I certainly wouldn't take a single team of 4 and have them write 4 services that interact with each other concurrently. That isn't efficient because not enough exists for anyone to make progress on their individual task, unless it's very simple. But if you do them one at a time, you gradually build a very reliable and maintainable empire, getting more and more functionality with very little breakage.

The problem that people run into is that they act as the developers of these services without investing in the tooling needed to make this work. You need to have easy-to-use fakes for each service; so you don't have to start up the entire stack to test and play with a change in one service. You need to collect all the logs and store them where you can see all of them at once. You need monitoring so you can see what components aren't interacting correctly (though monoliths need this too). You need distributed tracing so you can get an idea of why a particular high-level request went wrong. All these things are available off the shelf for free and can be configured in a day or two (ELK, Jaeger, Prometheus, Grafana). (The other problem that people run into is bad API design. There is no hack that works around bad API design in microservices; your "// XXX: this is global for horrible reasons" simply isn't possible. You have to know what you want the API surface to look like, or it's going to be a disaster. It's just as much of a disaster in monoliths, though; this is how you get those untestable monstrosities that break randomly every release. Microservices make you fail now, monoliths make you fail later.)

This costs money but less than the fine and insurance rise from the points.

In some circumstances, sometimes not, even more so if you have to miss any work to attend the course.

A friend of mine did one after being caught at 33mph in a 30mph zone.

ACPO guidelines mean they wouldn't be pinged until 10% +2mph over. So 35mph in a 30. That's also the minimum speed to be offered a speed awareness course.
> If the computation cannot be reduced to a simpler algorithm then no matter how you compute the future state you get that human thinking, feeling and making a choice.

What's the difference between the human thinking, feeling, making a choice and a trained neural network making a 'choice'? I would not say a neural network has free will.

> The difference with game NPC is that the algorithm doesn't have a hardcoded set of inputs and outcomes but can accept any inputs and produce outcomes that can't be predicted by anything other than that algorithm with that starting state.

You can have a program that could accept any inputs (say any binary sequence) and produce output based on that.

I think that if the universe is deterministic and computable then that implies no free will, since humans are part of the universe and therefore also deterministic and computable.
Don’t be clever. Let people enter what they want, they know what they need to write.
Checklists are stupid. Using them can make you feel like you're following a stupid set of obvious rules. Having to demonstrate that you followed a checklist seems childish.

... but you know what? Time and again, they are proven to work. Hospitals use them, airlines use them. They allow you to off-load some mental processing and give you some CYA.

We use them for multi-step manual deployments.

Checklists work. Use them!

I think their understanding would be focused on the encoding for their language and a relatively narrow set of problems. I've encountered name issues in CJK countries that keep names in native encoding due to an assumption that full names fit within a couple of characters with no need for any spaces or punctuation. Some systems might be designed to be "accommodating" and take even up to 8 or 10 characters! There was one train system where my name had at least four different iterations through the tickets I collected, with different ordering of first and last names and truncating.
Hmm, then why is the article written like Swift has any significant advantage?
Cells are basically grey goo. It is also not uncommon for cancer cells to become independent of the host. See HeLa cells for a human example.

That is all true enough, but doesn't actually contradict my point. A number of cohort studies have reliably made the point that I did about divorce, and the increase of singleness and late singleness in the last few decades has seriously impacted middle class wealth formation.
Interesting approach, but those struggling to make ends meet have substantially less time than the wealthy. It isn't a class normalizing panacea.

Why would the package mention vitamin E if there was not regulatory control?
That is true when buying the hardware - it needs to be fast & efficient to recoup its initial investment and still make extra money down the line before becoming obsolete (due to using more energy than the money it makes).

When you don’t buy the machines to begin with, you get a head start which allows you to profit immediately up to the point when the electricity costs outweigh the benefits without having to sacrifice part of the profits to pay for the machine itself.

Why Apple’s cheapest iPhone is the iPhone to buy this year
>That’s an aileron.

I'd argue it's not. (But I still believe the patents other claims, and as a whole was obviously violated.)

You can't go of of the language of today to judge the claim. After all, the Wright brothers use "flying machine" to describe what we call an "airplane", and the term "aeroplane" to describe what we call a "wing".

Remember, the method and implementation is what's patentable, not the concept.

It doesn't really matter if we'd call a warped wing an aileron or not, or that it accomplishes the same objective.

It only matters how the implementation of the invention is described, and what elements are claimed (and in what combinations).

The problem is poor governance.

Everyone has the right to appeal, sue for injury, etc.

Any entity acting as judge, jury, and executioner is the problem. Secret laws, secret courts, secret rulings are the problem.

Suboptimal CoC's are not (even remotely) the problem. Broken laws, policies, rules, procedures can be fixed. If we have proper governance.
