Just a personal experience: I remember stuttering as a kid, I was able to figure out that I stutter when I can't remember a word fast enough to say it, long story short I was able to train my self to stay silent until I remember the word I am about to say.
I think now it is not even noticeable.

I just noticed I am still doing this in the same way, a colleague just autocompleated my sentence. :)
I saw a discussion that it was mostly concerns about the Linux trademark when WSL1 didn't actually use a Linux Kernel with the leading part of the name/term.
Note also the story was broken by the Gambit alternative weekly and WDSU (the latter a TV station so gullible they were pranked by a Facebook post into announcing a nonexistent second line for RBG), not the Advocate/Nola.com (hulking right wing wreck of the former Times-Picayune run out of Baton Rouge)
As far as I understand it is currently based on LineagaOS but this could change. Main difference in philosophy is that they aim to support the selected official devices longer than LineageOS does. Which is a good thing.

> The idea of reservation in its current form sounds great when talking about a generation or two, but it starts to show its deficiencies in the long term.

As some who opposes the typical right-wing opposition to caste based reservations (aka left wing nut), I agree with your point of view.

For example, I would be fine with constituting a one time generous fund that qualified people can withdraw from (and invest), if care is taken to cover all those who should benefit from such a scheme. Its then up to the families to use the funds as they wish. There is also the notion of giving someone a fish and teaching someone how to fish. A financial fund targets the former and will not be enough, more lenient admissions but something that does not persist forever, seems a reasonable balance.

An eternally persistent reservation is tilted the other way. One can definitely argue about the details of how persistent the terms of the benefits should be, but all I will say lack of consensus on what the decay factor should look like should not come in the way of implementing something that is better than nothing, or terminating something that is better than nothing.

A common argument I see often is caste is not the problem, that poverty is the problem and reservations should target poverty alone and ignore caste. I disagree with this sentiment and consider poverty uplifting an important but orthogonal problem.

Caste reservation is about reparations/compensation for historical damages that has(d) that had been inflicted over centuries.

Kashmiri pandit's losses will not get addressed/compensated by social schemes for the poor. It has to address the issue the forceful, unlawful eviction from their home.

Occasionally, there's a pretty good gem in these. This was good, in response to John Lewis questioning a psychiatrist's qualifications:

“I have been doing this for over thirty years and on five or six occasions London solicitors have phoned me up and said that James Lewis QC is acting in an extradition case and is extremely keen to get your services for a report. So I think it is a bit rich for you to stand there now questioning my qualifications.”

Edit: There's another in there regarding some test called TOMM.
I now agree.

My last gig, I stumbled onto shebang, which allows you to invoke shell scripts in any scripting language from the command line.

Major face-palm-slap. I'm certain I've read about shebang many times. But never realized that it's general purpose.
So this is basically the equivalent of a non-dedicated Netware 2.x server, then?

Netware 2 was an 80286 OS. (DOS was an 8086 OS.)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetWare#NetWare_286_2.x

Normally, Netware took over the whole PC, but if you ran it non-dedicated, it loaded in memory above 1MB (which DOS couldn't use anyway) and then let DOS continue running in a pre-empted box, using the screen and keyboard. So someone could use the console as a DOS PC, while the Netware server ran in the background using the rest of the server's RAM, doing file and print for all the client machines.

It worked really well... the main problem was that the user would often turn off the "PC" when they were done. >_<

More seriously -- this seems to compare well to the old Locus DOS/Merge product:

Is there any benefit to DSL [argh, TLA overload, this is not Damn Small Linux] compared to DOSemu?
It’s not like you can’t test your script on another file first. If it works fine on a 1GB file with 300K lines, why wouldn’t it then work on the real file?

What would you do when the next time this happens it’s 300B lines from a 1PB file?
It was actually just farther in than I read. Which again to me seems like it's a bad choice.
https://mono.company/design/introducing-mono-icons/

I just read through their announcement and it seems reasonable, material icons are overused and OSS icons available don't provide design guidelines for extending (which they do).

I'm not a designer and haven't looked into alternative but this sounds like a good effort and I like the look.

I was recently involved in a project which used streamline icon pack, and while that set is huge and I don't mind paying for value - their licensing scheme is ridiculous - 3 licence tiers where the limitations are arbitrary and ridiculous and actually useful licence option is "contact us for a quote". Also they expose a private npm repo that requires per user token (per licence) with account for each developer (even those that just run frontend). We ended up removinh their icon set after paying upper 500$ tier - it's just not worth the hassle.

So if this is open source maybe some designer would accept commission work - eg few hundred $ per icon/or w/e per set and then that gets added to open pack I like the idea. Or if some designer working with them upstreams their additions.
> I don't know where you got that idea from, but your impression of the entire female gender is flawed, stereotypical, and yes, wrong.

OP is maybe exaggerating to make a point but there's a Seinfeld episode which I remember from many years ago, where Jerry says something like how a man can be really interested in what a woman does at her work, even though that woman might be a janitor, while the reverse is not true, no woman is interested in a man who's a janitor (I mean, she's not interested in his work).

And the statistics seem to support that, as more men are willing to marry women who are "beneath" them from a societal point of view (career and education) compared to women (i.e. women are less likely than man to marry members of the opposite sex who are placed "bellow" them).
What makes you discount the role of sex? Honestly curious - it’s pervasive in workplace treatment issues across the gamut, but you discount it here? Why?

Not all conservatives are bigots.
Swift manages to be technically open-source while not really being true to the idea of open-source. To me, it always seems as if somebody at Apple saw that companies like Microsoft going open source was good publicity and decided that they should do it now too, without really understanding what "open source" means.

Some examples of this IMHO include:

- While Swift itself is open-source, "Foundation" (which is something of a stdlib of Swift and provides many key pieces of functionality) is not open source - at least on macOS. There is a reimplementation of Foundation for Linux which is open source but, surprise, surprise, the two sometimes have different behaviour...

- Swift releases are weirdly coupled to XCode releases, a closed-source IDE. Moreover, while technically possible, most people on macOS don't install Swift on its own, but always through XCode, and the two are quite tightly coupled (you can technically change the toolchain, but it's quite an opaque setting IMHO). This leads to a lot of "I updated XCode and now the code is not working anymore" issues, especially with more junior developers.

- Tooling outside of XCode (itself not the greatest of IDE of all times...) is extremely ... limited. For example, XCTest's (the test framework's) console output is almost unreadable and there are actually (half-abandoned) third-party tools that try to parse it and format it nicely (while introducing tons of weird bugs), something that test frameworks for other languages can just do for free. The package manager has, I think, one maintainer, and is so underpowered that most iOS developers don't really use it yet (despite it now being a couple of years old). And in terms of editor/IDE support there is now technically a LSP implementation, but last I tried, I couldn't even manage to set it up properly.

- There is no clear roadmap or even mission statement for Swift. Many other languages try to be clear about where they're headed and also what kinds of things they don't want to support, but Swift development is this weird mixture between a) a "community process" that often just leads to very different parties bringing their own very special concepts, syntax sugar, etc. into the language development without there seeming to be any overarching idea of where this all is headed, and b) some things just seemingly being implemented because it's useful for some shiny Apple feature ("function builders" which is mainly meant to support SwiftUI and which many people have been very skeptical about). Meanwhile long-standing proposals like properly fixing generics ("Generics Manifesto") are being pushed back indefinitely. It seems to me sometimes that Swift developers are willing to let the community bikeshed on trivial matters (e.g. syntax sugar), but when it comes to more important, long-term concerns (should we implement function builders or rather invest in some more generally reusable macro-like / code generation feature), are being unilaterally decided without really consulting the community.

Similar background, and I completely agree. I left the faith ~8 years ago and went through an identity crisis. I didn't know what I wanted because I always said 'yes'. All of the decisions in my life to that point were mine, sure, but they were essentially made for me...and I was simply to say 'yes'.
There is also the effect of first generation learners. Many don't have the benefit of parents and family with a background in education who can mentor. That's quite a big deal.

That's just another cynical "both sides are bad" argument. Judge the parties by their actions, not some vague handwaving about the Pareto principle and that all politics is corrupt.

From what I've seen, there's one party that has done more to disenfranchise voters and attack our democratic processes in the last year than I can remember in my entire lifetime. Attacking the postal service during a historic mail in election, inviting foreign influence into the election and directly soliciting it in exchange for military funding (and then getting impeached for it), the constant suggestions that the election is illegitimate so that he can scream and shout about it if he loses. The Trump reelection campaign (yes the political campaign itself, not even a neutral government entity) has also been litigating to make it harder to vote across the country.

At this point, coming to an article about a republican administration committing pretty clear voter suppression in the context of the past year of partisan voter suppression and saying "well actually, both sides are bad" is basically gaslighting. All sorts of voter suppression tactics like hardcore voter ID laws, purging the voting record (and "accidentally" getting rid of hundreds of thousands of legitimate voters), poll taxes by proxy, and crazy voting deadlines, restricting resources for polling places, and making it harder to leave your job to go vote leans to one side of the aisle.

Sounds like you need to find somewhere in the middle. You're allowed to disagree and debate. The polite smiling attitude and F-You attitude both are conflict avoidance.
I think this is a fallacy: either way you're making someone unhappy. It's fundamentally a flawed argument: giving rights to someone it's not taking them away from someone else.

You're not making the "50%" of the people that are conservative unhappy. You are impacting a minority of those, the ones who can't live with the fact that somewhere there is a married same sex couple.

On the other hand you're telling the other 50% that they do not deserve a right. All of them.

So - that "some portion" it's not the same in size.

<rant>And if you ask me, which I admit: you didn't, the portion that believes that they should be able to deny other people a right they benefit from, can pack up an go. The inability of emphasizing with others would make them horrible software designers and developers.</rant>
Serverless Trends 2020
Hi everyone,

We surveyed 278 professionals about serverless technology and adoption and I thought to highlight some of the results here.

Whats's covered in this report?

The first section of the report is focusing on adoption-related questions such as usage of serverless technologies, organizational experience, and more.

The second section covers the benefits and downsides of the technology as well as the most popular use cases and tools to get the most out of serverless technology.

The final part of this report highlights the key decision-makers when it comes to adopting serverless technology. We also wanted to hear the opinions of those who are not using serverless technology, to learn more about the reasons why they haven’t adopted it.

Here's a collection of several key findings based on the community's answers:

1. Currently AWS is the leading provider followed by Azure and Google Cloud.

2. The two biggest benefits of using serverless architecture are flexibility in scaling and speed of development.

3. Node.js is the most widespread programming language when it comes to serverless, with Python in second place.

4. The most common use case for serverless is rest APIs, and the second is data processing tasks.

5. The biggest challenge for developers working with serverless is debugging. By far. Architectural complexity is not even close in second place.

"ideas in question are racist" is presented without evidence or a convincing explanation.

I agree that racism has no place in government, so this quote, among many, from the president is very troubling:

"You have good genes, you know that, right? You have good genes. A lot of it is about the genes, isn't it, don't you believe? The racehorse theory. You think we're so different? You have good genes in Minnesota."

Because your assertion that it cost a few thousand dollars to make a yeast that makes proteins from other animals is inexact. You can make some proteins but not all. And that for different reasons. One is that some proteins require complex machinery to be folded and modified after their synthesis (and we still don't know everything about these) and they may not be present in the new producing organism. Some proteins are toxic for the new producing organism. And then modifying an organism especially for large proteins can be really hard.

When I was young, must've been under ten, I used to play a card game in my guide group in where the deck was continually recycled and if played "wrong" you had to add a facedown card from the top of the deck, which replaced the current one.

The details are fuzzy, but I remember that we all pretty quickly broke the game by memorizing the full deck after playing through once or twice. So we started playing two decks shuffled together, then three.

The point being that kids' brains are magical and memorizing the order of a deck is no big deal if you're having fun doing it.

Interestingly the thing which immediately foiled our trick was playing against a different guide group which played three decks, but cut and took away half the stack before playing. Having half as many cards (but a random half) broke all our unconscious mnemonics (which apparently included a radix filter).

Caste based discrimination varies by state. It is far less of a deal in Bengal, for example. This is one reason you will see that caste based identity politics is not used in Bengal, whereas that is the thing TM in other states.

I am not into legalese but Studio Ghibli is a Japanese company. What is "common sense" for the Japanese may not be common sense in the west.

For example, there is a thriving amateur "doujinshi" community that commonly take copyrighted characters without authorization and make porn manga out of it. There are usually sold at conventions like Comiket and can be found second hand in many of these big stores that all over Akihabara.

But at the same time, they take intellectual property very seriously. There is not much piracy there, or it is well hidden. Counterfeit products are rare too.

And Japan in general is well known to be a country with many unwritten rules. And foreigners are often considered differently too.

Clearly a different culture, and clarifying what "common sense" means could be useful.

You are building a strawman, the observation from OP in no way condones any violent attitude.
