I think I just stopped my train of thought and hit reply.

I meant to point out that Charts.css relies on having <table> elements in the HTML. Vega relies purely on JSON. This may or may not be of concern. For instance, if you care about bots crawling the website for semantic information, then perhaps the Charts.css way of operating on top of <table>s is preferred. A minor point though.

1. How about you provide links to said tweets to help us round out that picture. Also, when have you ever given a pre-emptive apology about anything? Apologies generally only happen when offense is recognized.

2. This is just the N billion Muslims will be offended argument repackaged. Pick an action and you can find a sufficiently large group of people to be offended by said action. And no one opinion expressed removes the ability for anyone else judge what they themselves thing is racist. To express otherwise is disingenuous.

3. Barely half is not most as you originally claimed and what about the other staff not in the vocal group of 20 or so. Does the minority opinion and that of say Anna Wintour not matter? Lastly, if you think most workplaces operate under the rules of Teen Vogue in terms of employees relationship to management you are going to have a hard worklife ahead of you.
I think this is obvious if you watch the walmart movie[1]

There was an interesting scene in the movie where a small town was getting a new walmart, and they drove around downtown.

They pointed at each of the stores and assigned values like "6 months" or "3 months" as an estimate of survival after they lost all their business to walmart.

Another wave of change has been moving in slow motion for years with online purchases and local stores, but the pandemic has been a tsunami in comparison.

Nice! I will add a link in my presentation for the workshop.
Definitely a formational memory for me as well. There was a hologram gallery in a mall in Orem, Utah in the early 90's. I spent hours in there, but could never afford to buy one. I wish these were more available. I did manage to buy one about 10 years ago, but sadly it was lost in a move.

I really need to acquire a bunch for the science museum I'm going to open. Will probably need a bunch of kits as well. This is the sort of thing that can change someone's life as a child. There's no replacement for that sense of wonder.
Forget the "layman" elitist snobbery. There are people from adjacent fields and people in other fields who read such papers. Furthermore, that merely reinforces the "Latinization" of fields rather than making knowledge reasonably-accessible to all who wish to read it. In addition, prepress processing such a paper could easily add a glossary of term and/or hyperlinks mechanically.

> You can't break out of one function and into another, and a return can take you out of the current function, but no further. Whatever control flow shenanigans a function gets up to internally, other functions don't have to care.

Smalltalk, Ruby, and other languages in a similar vein beg to differ. And I don't think you could call e.g. Smalltalk "unstructured", either.

On the whole, I'm not really convinced by the arguments presented there. Most async code is effectively linear on any given code path, and thus you don't need any abstraction other than tasks/futures to synchronize. When multiple concurrent tasks are spawned, ideally, the facility that does so should bind them together in a single task that can then be awaited (or not, if necessary). This takes care of resource cleanup, error handling etc.
I doubt re-architecting into modules would make the bugs in each of those protocols go away. The bugs would still be in the modules.

Any other question?
To be fair to Wal-Mart, that seems to have less to do with Wal-Mart being a devious corporation and more that the lower class can scarcely afford to live anymore without the ultra-efficient economies of scale Wal-Mart provides.

In a world with a livable minimum wage, I imagine Wal-Mart would have less of a captive consumer base.
Careful when you read and modify it, since it’s not actually an open source license, you can poison yourself if later in your career you decide to write a new thing in the same space. Someone could come and argue that you are writing a derivative work, similar to if you spent years seeing closed source software inside a company and then went and made a similar product. That’s the actual safety from using something like MIT, BSD, or Apache: who cares whether or not the projects you read and maybe even contributed to inspired you, or if code you later write coincidentally looks similar to code from these projects, it’s no strings attached! These licenses however have many of the same legal subtleties as the GPL, except with a more explicit commercial intent, and owned by parties who have already demonstrated that they become unhappy when competitors make more money than them (as opposed to the “spirit” of the GPL which ultimately just wanted everyone to be able to see the code).

Your link doesn’t support your claim. Most of those seem closer to the OSI definition (BSD is the first one, GPL, Linux, etc) and the ones that might contradict it are rarer.

The way most people have been using “open source” is a lot closer to OSI than these companies are claiming. It’s misleading to use a different definition nowadays. And I think that’s the actual intent. If it wasn’t, then they’d be perfectly fine with using another unambiguous term like “source available.” If there was a strong desire to be clear and not misleading, they’d use such a term.
They made a product in which they spent resources and time and provided as open source, then another company which has many more resources took their open sourced code (which legally they could), did some work (or not) on it and provided exactly the same service, behind their now closed source branch. Not only did this company have much more resources to allocate to it they didn't need to bear the discovery and development costs and took an already proved idea.

It is legal, it was a good business move by amazon but it definitively sucked for those who had invested in building that software.

So yeah, in a way I can understand that now anyone risking their business in creating software or services based on those might be going, "yeah no thanks, you can't fork our work and sell it".

Specially when companies are gigantic and a 0.01% of their budget equates to the whole budget of the company who produced the original source. You can't really "not struggle" in the face of the competition.

I have to dig more into GPL licensing but anyway, there certainly needs to be some licenses that are not "f$#%% me any way you want" for people doing open source products.

If you use a Dijkstraesque title like this one, you should either be a recognized expert on the subject yourself or at least cite some articles that support your statement. Using it to promote your "better" concurrency library smells like clickbait...

EDIT: Ok, I stand corrected, this seems to be an influential article. But the title still smells like clickbait to me (especially because it singles out a well-known statement of a well-known language that has concurrency as one of its main selling points when it actually refers to using all types of threads - "green" or not)...

> Ethical note: No specific license was required for this work. The duration of any single experiment was so short that each crab never reached dangerous level, that the crabs were kept in comfortable condition, and that after all experiments the crabs were released to their natural habitats. Furthermore, on visual inspection,no crabs appeared to have been injured or adversely affected by the experiments.

The way this ethical note is phrased seems to suggest the experimenters basically went to the beach and picked up a bunch of crabs and then released them again, as opposed to any sort of standardized procurement process, which I find amusing.

Downplaying Rust isn’t going to go over well in this thread. I happen to completely agree with you, but I would add or say that Rust is the first new programming language in a very long time that qualifies as technical innovation and not technical churn. Maybe the only one since Java. And I'm a C# guy, I wouldn't want to use anything else, it's Java done right. But standing back and looking at the big list[0], only C, Java and probably Rust qualify as true technical innovation. I'm not saying that's the only thing that matters either. Everything has its contributions, but I'm not sure many rise to my standard of technical innovation (solving a problem), and most are pure churn.

Rust solves a real problem that has plagued software for decades (or so I'm told, I'm not a Rust user), but that can be true while everything else you said is also true. I don't plan on picking up Rust either, and yes a combo like C#/C(++) is incredibly potent, and Rust is ages away from replacing C.

A language ends up being the sum of its parts though. C# is "write once, jobs everywhere". Great serverside platform with .NET 5. Native on the most popular desktop platform, produces iOS apps and games. It's industrial-strength in language design. Good IDE support, good backwards compatibility (or side by side support). And also importantly, like my experience writing Python, I enjoy writing C#.

They state better API, is just a way to scrape data easier think like a structured JSON, regular public don't scrape data they visit for info once in a while, some people use other tens of apps to export data offline. Wikipedia wants to charge some money from freeloading corporates so, instead of facing the backlash about scraping being paid, they chose to charge these mega corps in a different way to avoid the hassle of commercial and non commercial BS. If they don't provide a fancy API, no different from free ways, corporates would rather use the free stuff than pay for the API.

It's not snobbery, but an acknowledgement that jargon exists for a reason, and that reason isn't to make the writing opaque to outsiders.

You're probably a software engineer. Are you going to write out REST (REpresentational State Transfer) in every design document you put up on your company wiki for your team that describes one, just in case a non software engineer wants to read it? Are you going to explain the concept? No, you're going to write for your audience, and stuff like will get their way.

If you want to read infra-disciplinary writing, you need to be willing to do the work to familiarize yourself with the concepts and terms of the discipline that you don't understand, instead of expecting everyone, always, to offer close-at-hand definitions just in case. That latter expectation is only reasonable for writing targeted at a general audience.
Yes, but where?

I mean I run a SaaS in the Netherlands. I know some such subsidies exist but they're also appallingly unattractive (except a general R&D salary tax cut). Shit like "get 25k if you do a project with 2 other companies in 2 other EU countries". I'd rather focus that energy on our product and our customers, thanks.

Your suggestion that "everything is about" getting these grants does not match my experience. Rather, I'd put it as, "there are some companies who'd rather hunt down grants than actually focus on their market, and they're seldomly successful". While I agree that these grants, by virtue of existing, actively discourage good entrepreneurship and thus hurt the market, I strongly disagree that you need them to succeed.
Where I live that sort of problem - an ever increasing housing standard - is mostly brought by the house builders to increase profits, not necessarily by the average family's new found demands. Affordable housing in decent quality and like 80m2+ would never be unoccupied in a larger (western-)European city I reckon.
That's not true. We don't know which condition triggers this effect. Remember, the UK data doesn't show this effect.

It's not known ahead of time who is susceptile to this effect.

It still can't even be ruled out if this is just a statistical anomaly. That's somewhat unlikely though but we just don't know which precondition is increasing the risk.

In an ideal situation we would suspend vaccinating with AZ but it's also a fact that not vaccinating would be putting more people at risk. Currently, there are not enough alternatives around to do otherwise.

> If we imagine the ideal future 100 years from now, with a more balanced world order and economic justice for all, then we have to experiment with radically different systems at some point in between.

Sure, but I think for any effect a bitcoin-like system has any chance to have on the US's ability to wage war, it will have the same effect on the US government's ability to fund massive social programs. That is, bitcoin is going in the opposite direction from what is needed for achieving the world we hope for.

> My takeaway from the issue of its energy usage is that trying to save the climate by discouraging energy usage is kind of fruitless because society will always want more; focusing on replacing polluting energy sources with clean ones is the sustainable systemic solution.

While I agree with you that this is how things are looking, and it is also the most important long-term goal, I personally don't believe that we have any hope of avoiding catastrophic climate failure if we don't focus on drastically reducing consumption in the short term. To me bitcoin has proved exactly how chasing free economic growth will always drink up any electricity we can produce.
This was a real hit of nostalgia for me. I also started my web development career by building flash games and movies, and still haven't found any technology that comes close to being as 'easy' to work with.

I mean, part of why that is the case is that walmart itself depresses wages. It comes to town, undercuts other businesses, those businesses close, people need jobs, they go to work at walmart (possibly at a loss of income but probably a loss of hours even if not), and then they can't afford to shop anywhere but walmart anymore. And the cycle continues.

It's not like they're doing this in a snidely whiplash scheme-y sort of way but they are still doing it, and they're not unaware of or innocent in the effect they have.
An interesting corollary I heard to "smart hardware that follows you" is "giving loans to generate more data that helps give more loans". That level of profiling sounds scary to me.
