Except this “simple” metaphor isn’t too useful. For monads like IO and State, “monad as a container” is a stretch. And some don’t fit at all — the list monad often is imagined as a computational context with nondeterminism, not simply a container.

Imagine this happens, but you can't correct these Holocaust deniers because they bought an edit that will remain for at least 6 months. This is what Wikipedia could be selling.
The solution to this (assuming you see it as a problem in search of a solution) is to stop watching dubbed media. Content targeted at anyone over say 10 years just shouldn't be dubbed, period.

Language isn't merely vocabulary, grammar and pronounciation. It's also nuance in expression, proverbs, slang, idioms. All of this is lost when content is translated and dubbed. When a person in a US sitcom uses an idiom, the spanish dubbed content translates to a similar Spanish idiom. With subtitles not only do I get the pronounciation and vocabulary, I also see in the subtitles a best-effort mapping from the english idiom to the corresponding idiom in my native language.

I think this is solving itself automatically as movies and traditional TV gives way for youtube and netflix where dubbed content isn't as common.

Yes, there are hundreds of other manufacturers and many moving parts, which reminded me of SpaceX.

One of the reason SpaceX has been abled to save so much cost was that they made / design all the parts themselves, truly vertically integrated. And this has led to better design, lower cost, higher level of knowledge in every part of the system, and more innovation.

I remember there were so regulation that forbid AirCraft manufactures to do that, what was the rationale behind it?

It's a ~47 video, and even if you don't agree with the conclusion, I think it's excellent. I haven't adopted a "never talk to the police" vibe, but I seriously think twice about talking to cops for anything that matters. For example, if shady person running down street with purse, person yelling "that person grabbed my purse", and cop asks "did you see which way the purse snatcher ran", I'll probably speak up :) . Cop asks me where I was last Saturday night, I'm not inclined to start volunteering information.

Debugging is not a problem per se. As an example you can see how Nim generates debugging info while transpiling to C with the --debuginfo --linedir:on options. The real problem with C transpilation is proper garbage collection support. A C compiler doesn't track roots and that means that for a language transpiled to C it is not practically feasible as of today to support garbage collection algorithms that are not conservative. There are published tecniques that should allow implementing full non conservative GC on top of C but they have remained in research settings so far.As a matter of fact the de facto standard GC for such langauages is Bohem's which has known limitations.

> The boss used her capital and labor to put in place all the resources that enable you to work

Capital accrued through the exploitation (yes, that's the legal and technical term) of labour.

There is 0 evidence that we wouldn't have a more productive society overall, if capital was more uniformly distributed across society; enabling more individuals to work for themselves or in co-ops.

Capitalist organisation structures are a pyramid with a very small few at the top collecting the vast majority of generated value. I don't think even the staunchest capitalism proponents can argue that a CEO no matter how good, is generating millions of times more value than a line worker at any org. Yet that's the kind of income deltas we see.

And we already know what happens when capitalist orgs reach a certain size. Rent seeking. They direct their resources towards preventing anyone else from competing in their niche through regulation and other barriers to entry. 'Why don't you go off and do your own thing?' Because it takes several million dollars to overcome the barrier to entry and even take a shot in any profitable industry. Exactly the kind of capital that average people don't have with the currently massively skewed wealth distribution curve.

If everyone suddenly had 5m in their bank accounts, you can bet your ass of millions of people would quit their jobs and go off to start their own things.

tl;dr: your employer isn't doing you any favours by hiring you and exploiting your labour. The fact that they happen to possess the capital necessary to profitably exploit you while you don't, doesn't turn them into a charity.
For the first, not so much, for the second, usually this is good advice but it depends on where you are how strict you'd have to apply it.

America is fairly unique in that its justice system is so driven by money, but good lawyers are expensive everywhere.

I'm skeptical that this could really work, but imagine the breakthroughs that would be ushered in for both medicine and space travel if it turned out that zero gravity diminished cancer? It would be the best incentive by far humans have ever had to develop space travel. And curing cancer at the same time! Billions of dollars of research funds could be redirected for developing rockets and we'd saving more lives than before! A wonderful narrative to a science fiction eutopia at least :)
I moved to France a few years ago. I did know that French don't know English as much as they do not want to speak English yet I am still amazed by how much. I think that the main reason for that is that they have their own French speaking view of the planet in which they happily live. There are French businesses, French universities and research, French (ex-)colonies, French tourism etc. One could say that the same are true for other countries, eg Germany where English are much more/better spoken, but apparently it's not like this and I have no explanation for that.

> "But what I really wanted to know was: is there something these cancers have in common? That's why I put them in the microgravity device."

What is this microgravity device? A quick web search was inconclusive.

Before anyone answers this, I would like to guess. Is it either real levitation by (dia)magnetic levitation (when levitating a live frog was possible years ago, levitating a tiny amount of cells in a desktop device should be possible by now?) or maybe something that makes the effect of gravity average out, e.g. floating clusters of cells in a fluid to reduce the net force and maybe even rotate them (or let them rotate freely), so that there is no longer a preferred direction in the cluster (which is what I guess is what is important here)?

It should be noted that type safety itself does not solve this problem. For external input, you need explicit schema validation or the type needs to be enforced at the protocol level using something like Protocol Buffers with implicit schema validation.

I think that security has nothing to do with the programming language and everything to do with the developers who are writing the code.

Evolution. Society works better when most people fall in line with the major consensus narrative. Even a society with a suboptimal strategy that everyone follows is better than a society full of second-guessers that doesn't get anything done.

That's not to say that you need everyone to be a mindless drone, but just like reinforcement learning works best with a healthy balance (usually like 90/10) of exploitation and exploration, society works best when a few people explore new options and the majority follows the emergent consensus.

I was horrible in English while at school and internet access wasn't widely spread. Regular use is pretty important in my opinion.

Instantly switching languages is hard though. You end up with sentences that make absolutely no cheesecake and fail you grammar basic if you switch to your native tongue again. Often happens to me after work when I was consuming content in English for a longer period of time.

Nearly everything is localized here though and it is very true that dubbed content suddenly feels very artificial. Older generations have a comparably bad English proficiency, even if they once excelled in school.

5 points for each mention of "Einstien", "Hawkins" or "Feynmann".

10 points for each claim that quantum mechanics is fundamentally misguided (without good evidence).

10 points for pointing out that you have gone to school, as if this were evidence of sanity.

10 points for beginning the description of your theory by saying how long you have been working on it. (10 more for emphasizing that you worked on your own.)

10 points for claiming that your work is on the cutting edge of a "paradigm shift".

40 points for claiming that the "scientific establishment" is engaged in a "conspiracy" to prevent your work from gaining its well-deserved fame, or suchlike.

40 points for claiming that when your theory is finally appreciated, present-day science will be seen for the sham it truly is. (30 more points for fantasizing about show trials in which scientists who mocked your theories will be forced to recant.)

Well thanks for your reply , i still think sxg breaks semantics.

> Browsers "pretend" exactly this every time they download a page via HTTPS.

yeah and the big scary warnings are for the connection, not the content. currently browsers tie url host to DNS so the semantics are different, so the cert certifies the distributor. I also think this is only true for certs that don't have an organization name, at least i think that , for extended-validation SSL they still show this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/Firefox_...

> and they appear to attribute an app to the creator, not Apple, Inc.

indeed , i meant that they attribute the app to Apple Inc as the creator, but not their domain, which is again, different semantics. (although i suppose apple is somehow involved in ensuring that the correct binary is distributed for every developer)

> Why should only the 3-4 big corporates

i m obviously not saying they should , but that it's not analogous situation, with their walled gardens and all. the web is nobody's a walled garden and a large part of the content is public domain which doesnt need any signing. that s why app store logic doesnt apply.

> reduces single points of failure

that 's what software hosts already do with providing hashes for binaries. and it's great that sxg can verify content through the browser. but it shows where the content was created, not where it was distributed , thats why i think it's wrong to change the URL

there is also a laundry list of dangers that they introduce that seem pretty serious for something that is being pushed forward for basically cosmetic reasons: https://blog.intelx.io/2019/04/15/a-new-type-of-http-client-...
