The problem, as always, is that a table isn't the natural output for a computer. It's either serialized text, or a graph. Unix tools work ok-ish for serialized text and you need general recursive functions to deal with graphs. Something that all shell like languages are extremely bad at.

Your comment about the JavaScript client side ecosystem is fair, and I could even provide numerous examples of libraries introducing breaking api changes in minor releases.

However it is unfair and simply untrue to somehow also tar nodejs with that brush. Upgrading a nodejs project by a major version usually never needs any code changes
I'm not sure it is - we know how to eg address poverty with income transfers and increase availability of free mental health services, and how to raise the temporary revenue for it (temporary because it pays for itself)
Your ideas are something I wrestled with while I was writing (a very similarly named) crsh[0]. I chose to avoid trying to reimplementing commands and instead stuck with an unstructured environment, but with the ability to parse output using an expandable set of parsers and use inline JavaScript to operate on it. I agree with what you say about perl, but the number of users with experience in perl is -- at least in my bubble -- very small compared with more modern languages.

Speaking of fancy alternative shells, I tried http://xon.sh/ for a while, whose selling point is that its language is a superset of Python.

While it was neat for interactive use to have stuff like proper string manipulation and list comprehensions, writing scripts with it (.xsh files) was horrible, because the sorta-but-not-really-Python-ness meant that no tooling worked. Syntax highlighting was messed up, code autoformatters barfed, linters barfed, autocompletion didn't work.

I actually find writing scripts in Bash, aided by the amazing linter https://www.shellcheck.net/ to feel almost like it's now a compiled language. It goes from being a fraught endeavor, to being kinda fun and educational. It's like pair programming with someone who has an encyclopedic knowledge of the language quirks. Hook it up to automatically run on-save in your editor!

To refuse to decide is even more simplistic. The free market offers a clear way to decide where resources are invested. If you're going to override that and prop up failing companies, what grounds are you going to use to decide, and why do you believe your process will be better? Letting the market decide at least ensures that completely useless companies go to the wall, and companies that people are willing to spend a lot on get to continue (and, notably, it does this in a nondiscriminatory way - anyone's money is as good as anyone else's). Can your process - which is, what, Trump picks and chooses which companies don't go bankrupt? - guarantee that much?

I concur with your point about the programming model and style, but I do also maintain that "cooperative" vs. "preemptive" is not about that difference. It is a technical difference on how the system interleaves threads and whether it needs cooperation from the code running on them, and not on the programming model and critical sections.

For the distinction you have in mind, I see the terms "colored" vs. "non-colored functions" to be used the most, and they are both within the "cooperative multithreading" space.
Starbucks is an essentially American phenomenon.
e.g., nobody in Europe ever thought coffee shops needed to become branded chains that set a single product quality expectation, because almost nobody who'd ever visited an Italian/mediterranean-style cafe ever thought they lacked a quality or sociability option to begin with. Sure, some chains exist, but the quality delta between them and the average cafe isn't great enough to scale fast.

Only in a place where coffee is generally awful, and VC money easy, could the concept that became Starbucks ever come into existence.

Well, no, but . . .

The "common cold" is a blanket term for several viruses that cause similar symptoms. My understanding is that most are rhinoviruses. A mild influenza virus will also give "cold" symptoms. And, as talked about here, there are a handful of coronaviruses as well.

It currently appears that Covid-19 is more dangerous than other circulating coronaviruses, but it is important to keep in mind that the "common cold" can already kill people in vulnerable groups. It is possible that the biggest issue with Covid-19 is that it is novel. No one has much immunity to it, so it spreads rapidly and causes worse symptoms than it might if we had more latent resistance.

So, once enough people have been exposed to the virus, it might result in it being no worse for the general population than any other bad flu. That doesn't mean that it won't kill people, but it won't spread as easily, and people who do get it might have better immune responses. So, in the long run, without a vaccine, it will probably just fizzle out, eventually. However, that will either take many years (if ever) or a lot of deaths.
Steve Crocker on the History of RFCs
It doesn't have to be this black and white, in my opinion. The most common data structures I've interacted with on the command line are _newline separated_ or _JSON_. What if your shell allowed parsing of JSON natively?

npm list --json | ({ json }) => json.somePackage.author.name

What if it allowed parsing of XML natively, allowing instant scrapers to be written in a single command?

I think the difference is probably in the fact that Poland was a USSR satellite nation, much like DDR, while in Latvia after occupation they didn't set up a puppet state, but directly integrated us into the USSR.

The implication here is that the regime secret services in Latvia not just collaborated extensively with Moscow, but were in fact part of the same organization. Meaning, that it is very likely that there existed instructions for emergency situations in which the most sensitive documentation needs to be shipped to Moscow.

This article was useful. Not everyone are experienced in the cybersecurity.
I don't know if there are any good options at this point.

The general position from the US national security elite is that China should not be permitted to become powerful enough to have a completely independent foreign policy. This goal is probably impossible to achieve even trough military force.

For China's part, the Chinese need to learn how to get along with the rest of the world, including their immediate neighbors, without threatening other countries on a regular basis. The kind of respect China wants on the world stage can only be created through non-coercive soft power, and that's a skill the Chinese do not have.

Ultimately, I think both the US and China need to temper their expectations and learn to live with each other. This may not be politically possible in the long term, and is not politically possible in the US under Republican administrations.

In the short term, US moves to destroy Chinese tech firms and effectively transfer their assets to US firms are not helpful for global stability.

Chinese tech has no business in government networks, but consumer use of TikTok, WeChat, and Huawei phones is not a security threat and the rule of law should be respected with regard to these brands. If the US doesn't want people to use these tools, then it can make better alternatives.

Pervasive privacy abuses by TikTok et el should be addressed through comprehensive privacy legislation that applies equally to US surveillance capitalism firms (e.g. Facebook) and not through bans that exist only to transfer Chinese market share to US firms.
A good way to look at this is to consider someone working for RJ Reynolds in the 70s. The pay is good, you are working on a product that people just seem to _love_, and everyone at the company seems pretty enthusiastic and committed. There is a little thrill to tell people where you work and have them tell you that they use your company's product.

Yes, some people may have concerns about the product and its long-term consequences to individual health and society, but those are just alarmist freaks and we can ignore them.

Yes, there are also those internal reports that you might have seen or heard about in chatter around the water cooler, but you are not an expert in that subject so really what do you know? And the experts the execs bring around on office tours seem to be OK with things.

Yes, everyone at the company uses the product and while you were not a heavy user of the product before joining you can't avoid it in meetings and daily work. You seem to be recognizing some of the negative symptoms of the product in your daily life a lot more these past few months, but that recent project you worked on was pretty cool and in your last evaluation you got high marks for 'impact' so it can't all be bad, right?

Everyone who works at FB (ok, let's say IC2 and above) knows what is going on. Everyone who has been there for more than two or three years feels the relentless pressure to increase 'engagement' no matter the cost. Most are a bit unsure about the whole 'vision' thing Mark keeps talking about and they have enough self-awareness to see the cult-like aspects of the company, but the pay is very good and it can be a thrill at times to have access to either the audience or systems of such size and scope (e.g. let's count the files in /tmp across 1 million+ systems just because hypershell lets us...)

At what point in your career at RJ Reynolds do you realize that you are actually doing evil and check off box 2? At what point do you admit to yourself that what you do day to day has negative long-term consequences for society? When you do realize this what do you do?

(Disclaimer: worked at FB a while ago for a long enough period of time that the actions of sociopathic management eventually overwhelmed the 'protecting these systems protects activists and persecuted people from their evil governments' story I told myself and so I bailed.)
> proportional? China gave a clear path forward to those companies if they want to operate in China (setting up severs in China, complying local laws, etc..) They chose not to do so and left. Did US gave any clear path how these tech companies can continue operate in the US other than selling themselves and giving the goverment a commission?

The real question is, why did the West went along with that bad deal at first place and allowed China into the WTO under these conditions. It was extremely short sighted.

> There has never been a case in human history where one group of people voluntarily gave up their wealth, status and privilege to another group of people. Wealth transfer always leads to violence.

There was an interesting book published about two years ago (I'm too lazy to search for it) which showed that wealth "re-calibration" only really happened as a result of violent change. I know I wouldn't be here in front of a computer writing this comment if it hadn't been for WW2 that brought communist rule to my Eastern-European country, which communist rule brought forced industrialisation with the help of mass education (that was of course free, unlike before WW2). That benefited my parents who could make the "leap" from the countryside to the city. Probably a new war could similarly eliminate the wealth inequality in countries like the US.

Actually I looked for it and I'm 99% sure this is the book: "The Great Leveler: Violence and the History of Inequality from the Stone Age to the Twenty-First Century" [1]

The question here is the same as the question when unemployment numbers come up: what will the bounce back look like? If the same people go back to the same jobs in the same locations at the same companies (maybe renamed for bankruptcy purposes) then it will make no difference. If they don't then it will. But there is no way of knowing that until the bounce back begins. And that's a few months (a figure pulled from my arse) away.
That's what rational choice theorems like Arrow's show: dictatorship. Benevolent one is better. Game theory also shows the same: cooperation is better than the non-cooperative Nash equilibrium. In fact, both Arrow's theorem and Nash's equilibrium are proved to equivalent.

Once the independence movement is over, once the generation that got the independent dies out, don't expect any cooperation, devolving into "vote for me because the opposition party sucks".

One of the theories is that the density of the ACE2 receptor the virus binds to, is somehow correlated with testosterone levels, which is very low for young children, and low for women compared to men.

If you can afford a house in the city, great. Otherwise, living in an apartment, you're constantly at the whimsy of your neighbors. They can easily be people who like to blast loud music for hours or who otherwise make a lot of noise. In practice, these people often cannot be reasoned with and the only solution is to move. I've been living in apartments my whole life and, while there were multimonth or even multiyear periods of quiet, on the whole it's purely a lottery (as neighbors change, or their kids grow and turn into obnoxious teenagers etc.). Now I'm planning on escaping it all by building a house in a village outside the city.
That's beside the point of what's being discussed here. The concern is that using unstable feature flags in your code, which only work on nightly, allows your code to be broken by compiler upgrades. But using nightly doesn't magically introduce unstable feature flags. There's no compability hazard from merely compiling a compiles-on-stable codebase with a nightly compiler for whatever reason.

I am not sure though what other tool should the biologists learn - they usually know R and Python and they use Excel because they need what Excel offers; there isn't any other software that allows them to easily do whatever they need to do with the data, quickly iterating on the ideas AND then present it nicely.

The solution here should be to fix Excel, but it really is a small issue (that has been worked around, too; and if you know how to use excel correctly, it does not happen to you) compared to making another Excel, which seems like a monstrous task.
