Perhaps you might enlighten us as to why this is a false dichotomy, and what other options there are.

You cannot run a company that perpetuates white supremacy without implicitly supporting that white supremacy, whether you know it or not. I've already been clearly told that malice and intent are not required.

Or are you genuinely going to make the case that "someone who supports white supremacy" is not interchangeable with "white supremacist?" I'm not interested in debating your personal redefinitions of terms.
Do you think it's sad if a couple has shared values and enjoys living those values together?. My partner and I are both very frugal, hoping to be able to retire early. We constantly celebrate how frugally we're able to live because we're together. Everything is half-off: housing, cars, groceries, travel, electronics. We each research different ways to save on bills, support each other to cut down on costs, research different aspects of saving and investing. You may not value frugality, but the cost savings of being in a relationship is undeniable and great for people who do value it.

Serious question: Do you think that if the majority of people in the US, and particularly the majority of middle and upper classes and tech folk, were Black that they would have defaulted to a yellow color for emoji?

That's not even getting into how all the "man" "woman" "child" etc emoji had stereotypical white-people hair etc.

Probably going to be downvoted into oblivion, but I think China is pushing and pushing to make such things "normal".

The rest of the world need to start sanctioning China whenever the government acts in bad faith or with recklessness, before others follow suit. Leaving these things unanswered is an open invitation.

It's not the first time this happens. Without response it won't be the last.

That's been in non-generic Go for a while (passing a closure for sorting): https://golang.org/pkg/sort/#Slice
> For example, MMUs are unnecessary if the OS verifies that all programs only access memory that's been allocated to it.

That's what Microsoft was attempting with Singularity. Because binaries were IL, they could be reasonably verified for isolation guarantees during JIT compilation.
It's always the same thing.

People find a language/library too complicated, so they go on their own to write a simpler version, only to find out that they missed very important cases that prevents it from having the same qualities.

Grudgingly, they then gradually re-introduce what they initially strongly opposed against, but now they also have to work around their current design and bogus abstractions that wont let that happen easily.

That's going to create a lot of cruft, edge cases and API complications, to the point where a bystander might decide it's too complicated and, they too, go on their own write a simpler version.

Go hasn't learned a single thing.

Do you think it's irresponsible for AWS to encourage beginners to try their service when they apparently only intend it to be used by those with a computer science degree and 5-year apprenticeship under an experienced sysadmin?
Even if you had a verified SMT checker, you also need to prove that the encoding of the problem in SMT is correct, i.e., that a proof does translate to a valid register allocation solution, to achieve comparable guarantees to CompCert.
That is only relevant if the person buys coverage for the car. Legally, you only have to buy liability insurance, so you can compensate any other parties you injure or damage.

If you borrow money for the car, the lender might require coverage for the car itself. I pay for $500k bodily injury and $100k property damage liability only coverage for $40 per month per vehicle for 10k miles per year.

I had Geico on the east coast at a similar price ($50), but they were more expensive on the west coast so I switched to Amica.
I've witnessed similar and it's usually Hanlon's Razor. Can't say for sure with every case but I've seen a fair few senior execs who are just legitimate suckers for sales pitches. There's a lot of pressure on them to bring innovation and cut costs and when someone comes along promising to do both they have a hard time passing it up.

Just echoing the sentiment of loving Backblaze. The HDD stats really aligns with the open source roots of the company. I love that they also open source the designs of their storage pods.

This "show your work" strategy helps me trust them at the end of the day. With this kind of storage being a commodity, a high level of openness could be a competitive advantage.
I've seen plenty of people use a different emoji skin tone. So there was demand for it, you just never noticed it.
No. You will expect them to maximize the metrics, but they will do the minimum, and think you’re an idiot, and the quality of their work will be terrible, and they won’t say a word.

Every new hire is an opportunity to let that person do their best work for the company. Your opportunity to screw up because you think you know better.

If that doesn’t make sense to you, you’re probably in the 60-90% that HBR classifies as negative value managers. We have this idea that management is just a bunch of simple processes, and it is, in the same way that building a bridge is just welding together steel beams. Every struggling engineer wants to be a manager because they think it’s easier work with more power over other people and higher pay, which it is, and this incentive structure creates this reality no matter how hard you fight it.

Think about the opposite. What would happen if each engineer had a budget and they decide how much they want to pay whom for management services? How would your role as a manager change in that situation? To earn a salary, you would have to have an extraordinary competence in helping people to be more effective, or just play politics downward. And the engineers, well, they could choose to be lazy and incompetent, or they could be aggressive and incompetent, or they could be ambitious and disciplined, or whatever they want to be. So you see how the situation is not that different with the roles reversed.
If I may ask you rather than the robots: what is rougelike?
^this. For business-critical operations you almost _never_ want to have your service shut down, especially as a surprising result of a big spike in usage.
Consumers don't want to be tracked because it's become a meme to dislike tracking.

If you think about it... what's the problem with a URL tracking which advertiser you came from? Why would you insist that it be a secret which ad you clicked to come to a site?

This tool is removing URL parameters some of which are absolutely harmless and not violating anyone's "privacy". We really need to draw the line somewhere and decide what the heck means "privacy" at this point, because everything can be interpreted as violation of privacy.

Likewise, are those site owners allowed to exist, or should they just offer content at a loss, and pay millions of ads, and have no even clue which ads worked and which didn't? And when there's a paywall of course everyone is SUPER ANNOYED by the paywall.

So to recap, the public wants absolutely everything, for free, and they want to disrupt as much as possible from the site's mechanism to understand what the other side of this communication is and what they want.

They reference this talk in the article. I also used to think it was an amazing talk...too bad it's almost entirely fiction.
I am able to define what those mean, yes. A family means “family” and a mermaid means “mermaid”. Same answer for the rest, none of your emoji examples are complicated to interpret unless you add text to accompany them, and even then, at most you are going to misinterpret their tone, not the specific emoji.

Wether we should devote time making sure they are the correct skin tone is orthogonal to my original comment.

I spent some time with Hy about a year back, and that is approximately the impression I brought away. In order to maintain good interop with Python, they had to make a lot of compromises about how things work in Hy, relative to what a Lisper might expect. The most striking example I can think of offhand is that `let` had to get banished from the standard library: https://github.com/hylang/hy/issues/844

That said, Hy is still a nice language, and very well thought out. It's just that billing it as a lisp dialect for Python (as the project's website does) might lead to some false expectations. That GH thread I linked above is a great example of this. There's a lot of good, careful thought going into the design of the language. But it also has this sentence in the opening comment: "Hy is not Clojure, nor Common Lisp, but homoiconic Python." If you're interested in a Python variant with good macro system, this is it.

(Also, I'm not sure it necessarily disqualifies Hy from being a lisp. There are too many different conflicting opinions about the definition of 'lisp' for me to want to say either way, and, while a lot of good and insightful things have been said on the subject, I've personally always found that particular argument to be rather boring.)
Fair enough. I just don't think one can find good mentors willing to help in normal jobs/companies. Perhaps in FAANGs yeah, but 99% of us, devs, do not work for FAANGs.
Similar thing told by my grandfather, who was imprisoned in Russia for some time: They had to eat the grass to avoid starving. Every morning someone would be frozen to death and prisoners had to stick close together to not freeze. Or someone would have drowned in a puddle of water over night. Horrible gruesome situations.

He said things became much better in terms of food, when later on he was imprisoned in some US prison (not sure that was in the US or in another place but managed by US).

He wrote it all down as well.
I am currently writing an AI book using Clojure examples. I am using this library, as well as DL4J, etc. I am a Common Lisp developer, but I hope that my Clojure book will be useful.

It really depends on the bribery you are talking about, there's definitely some exceptions enshrined when you pay to grease the wheels for normal actions.

http://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/515229/a-resource-guid...

The FCPA’s bribery prohibition contains a narrow exception for “facilitating or expediting payments” made in furtherance of routine governmental action.159 The facilitating payments exception applies only when a payment is made to further “routine governmental action” that involves non-discretionary acts.160 Examples of “routine governmental action” include processing visas, providing police protection or mail service, and supplying utilities like phone service, power, and water. Routine government action does not include a decision to award new business or to continue business with a particular party.161 Nor does it include acts that are within an official’s discretion or that would constitute misuse of an official’s office

A single American company that started less than 20 years ago has just landed a heavy rocket on a bullseye on a ship for the 9th time meanwhile the full weight of the Chinese communist machine keeps coming up with these ramshackle embarrassments and we're expected to believe China is about to eclipse the west any day now.
This has been my experience too. The amount of vendor emails and offers of wine, beer, food, etc. is ridiculous. And the IT conferences (back before covid) were crazy too. Young women dressed in tight clothing working vendor booths trying to draw in customers. It all felt so wrong.

I can see how some managers can really be drawn into this sort of lifestyle. They are made to feel very important and are given perks, but they are being played/used, they just don't realize it.

I would imagine politicians have the same sort of bribes (except from lobbyists).

Emojis communicate. Race of the speaker can add important context to the thing being communicated. Adding skin tone to emojis allows them to communicate this.

With emoji you can, in one glyph, raise your hand in a conversation to say, eg, "me too". With skin tone support, you can still raise your hand but can also say, "and I'm a person of colour" which may be a crucial piece of context for the conversation.

TLDR People need to talk about race. People talk using emojis. Skin tone allows them to talk about race while using emojis.
I hope you're joking :-))

For some reason my edit immediately after making the post didn’t make it but I meant to include this with a statement “I have no idea about the veracity of this claim or website”.

I’m not looking to defending this with one hard but it could be right.
It appears to be a lie. Or, at least, it hasn't been confirmed by the FBI as per my reading:

> “No one from the FBI has ever made a public statement about what Abagnale has or hasn’t done for them,” Logan said. “He has given some guest lectures at the academy, but he makes these outlandish statements in the media. He’s claimed to teach ethics at the FBI.”

> Abagnale sticks by his stories, continuing to tell and retell them even today.

> “Go to YouTube, you will see the Talks at Google that Abagnale did not that long ago. That video has been viewed over 11 million times. And he makes the claim there, still, that he was an attorney general and passed the bar exam.”

> In the video, Abagnale claims that the FBI included in its 100th anniversary coffee table book a section that identifies him as the only person ever sprung out of the federal penitentiary to work for the agency.

> “And I just recently … picked up a copy. There is, indeed, a beautiful coffee table book printed and published by the FBI. And Mr. Abagnale’s name, as you might suspect, is nowhere to be found within it.”
Make the color blue then if yellow isn’t neutral enough (like iMessage tapbacks, or Facebook thumbs up). Make the people more abstract.

I’d argue the direction should be towards generality not identity specificity.

I’m not dogmatic and obviously my point of view on this is a lost cause, but I generally think the universalist ideal is better and should be the goal.

I do think yellow was intentionally chosen to be universal and not to be read as “white”.
Do you mean this OSTP report on cloud computing? Personally I think it’s pretty straight to the point for a government report like this. There’s like half a page introduction and it’s straight to specific recommendations and goals. They even put the core idea for each point in bold...

This is a transparent CYA to give the impression of careful deliberation before ultimately letting him back on the site to spend millions and drive billions of dollars in advertising. This is obvious to me because it only addresses a handful of posts and not the years of deliberate misinformation (or even just the months of outright lies about the election) leading up to it, and it likely came to be just recently due to the recent news of his upcoming “social media platform.”

The reason is avoiding tracking, whether you agree with it or not, though.
that's not the problem, you can easily expand the url with curl (it will probably be a redirect) and manually remove the parameters. the problem is that it is not obvious to you that the link contains personally identifiable information.
But at least it keeps grad students busy in the programming language departments ;). Imagine that all we had was Haskell and maybe a strict variant of it. These guys would quickly run out of topics that could be explained in less then 5min to a casual developer.

Cos progressive loading is literally the worst thing ever.

Have you ever tried clicking a "Contact Us" (or similar) link in a footer of a site that loads MORE CONTENT every time you scroll down to the bottom of the page ? Bloody annoying.
Or maybe it is due to not being socially acceptable for many generations before, so that men grew up hearing that you should be strong, get over it, etc? And especially the other guys make “weakness” into a weakness, not women, though of course they also uphold the attributed social status to the genders.

If you do not use the contributed “let” macro, then auto generated Python code from Hy source code looks fine. If you look at the GitHub repo for the Hy book I wrote, you will see a Makefile target for generating Python code from the Hy examples: https://github.com/mark-watson/hy-lisp-python

EDIT: not a Makefile target, I used a shell script create_python_source_from_hy.sh
Abnagale has stated (linked elsewhere in the thread) that this is all based on his story but not a biography. It's not a memoir.
This is a descendent of a 1990 Usenet post. "Problem #2: is that white noise, or is it a one-time pad ? I dunno. Awfully hard to prove, isn't it ?
