The way I see it, the rise of the chieftan and shaman go hand and hand. Listen to my orders, bring me resources, make war with who I please, for I am your leader and your living god, and they are the unknown other who aren't like us and don't believe what we believe about the universe. For all of our available history, this was the case. Tribalism.

In my view, early bands of humans who weren't following a charismatic leader, who weren't following a strong religious practice, were killed off by those bands of humans who did follow the word of a charismatic leader who assured their followers that the divine itself were guiding their decision making. Fast forward though millions of years of evolution, and of course we are predisposed to religion, to xenophobia, to answering some call of duty and dying in someone else war. Our cultist ancestors killed off anyone they came across who didn't follow with this program. This behavior of humans hasn't even gone away today, its so entrenched.
Telling you you're posing a question in an unintelligent way is the first point. The direct reason why is you're making up your own facts and then further adding inference to the groups you've identified.

The "next steps" here are to consider if this is the approach that helps answer your question. I suggest it does not. Further, you could consider if you're in a position to have an authoritative take as you've done here without doing the due diligence on the arguments as i've called out.

The question mark does nothing to further the debate. It is premised on your expectation for someone else to do your reading assignment for you. Please, do better.

Try. Try reading up. Try seeing the arguments on both sides, BEFORE doing drive by comments with such a simplistic and irresponsible of condensing the positions of a serious debate into a "So what?" comment.

Hope that helps.

Scientists absolutely need to investigate themselves as well, to avoid biases and blind spots. Just because someone is smart, doesn't make them arbiter of truth. So we need to examine ourselves AND facts.
I don't disagree, because there is a lot of wisdom in what you say. But...

1. If kids see the example of a marital power dynamic of taking and giving, it's not that they will necessarily learn to be selfless givers!

2. I like the F Scott Peck definition of love, which is to extend ones self to support the spiritual growth of another. And, often the growth that a taker needs is to learn to be giving. Often, takers take because they view themselves as a victim.

For a giver, it can be really difficult to go outside of one's normal giving mode without being sucked into a mode of anger or resentment.

3."Being married" is not an ultimate value—it can hurt all the people involved. Complicated! Sometimes I feel I could be a much better, more giving person in a healthier relationship because I could be helping many more people. If i take your example of the candle—it may be great to sacrifice yourself to create light, but is it worth the sacrifice if you aren't producing light?

I can't speak for the person you're replying to, but I'm against any No Fly lists, both for the pre-crime aspect and for the the opaqueness with which its implemented.

Sex offenders, by definition, have committed a crime. So that's not really a pre-crime list. Although, sure, some people may not belong on those lists, and it's pretty life-ruining for them.

Your point reads a bit like this: "These injustices exist that you should be against, so why are you supportive of them?"
The good thing is you can use a mouse and a keyboard on Android.
The incentives aren't specific to women though.

Suppose you were a stay at home dad married to a high earning wife. You then meet a new woman you find more attractive. Under most Western countries' laws you can divorce your wife for no reason other than you no longer find her attractive, and she has to pay you alimony and child support to maintain your lifestyle while you're dating your new, hotter partner.

What's the downside to you? Seems there isn't any.

It seems obvious that a system setup like that will increase divorces initiated by stay at home parents, and hence increase single parent households.
Yes! Hotline was wild.

Is it? I just tried Telegram again today and something as basic as joining a public channel from the app itself (as opposed to clicking on a link) was seemingly unavailable, or at least hidden well enough that I was unable to find it.
far more doesnt mean far more wide range. With P2P you could browse a server for the popular, as well as a bunch of things you d never heard. And it wasnt just music, just about anything , specifically very obscure stuff. anarchist material was something often uploaded. It was like you could see the whole jungle. Google is instead a zoo.

(Incidentally, what is the current evolution of gnutella, or any P2P that allows to browse the remote server?)
Do you have any sources for that? It's fascinating, I've never heard that perspective before. But it does jibe will with the US vs Soviet space programs, in which the Astronaut Office (NASA) demanded that the pilot be able to actually pilot the craft in contrast to the Soviet spacecraft which were autonomous.

Interestingly enough, just last week saw the first flight of a completely autonomous manned US spacecraft: The Inspiration-4 flight in a SpaceX Dragon. There was no professional astronaut pilot onboard, and the four tourist crewmembers had less than a year of training, I think closer to six months.

Buddhism can in practice be very religious. The life of your typical buddhist monk really doesn't look that different from the life of your typical christian monk, they just utter different prayers while lighting their candles. The Pali Cannon reads a lot like the new testament too
Well it is true. The fact that you don’t believe it tells me you have a lot to learn. Writing good end-to-end tests is a skill you need to learn. Don’t assume that software developers can do it without proper training/learning. It is hard to do well.

I'm so happy to see so many people mention Hotline in here! Aahhh the good ol' days :) Indeed, when Napster came along, it wasn't too surprising to me .. that is, other than the true p2p nature of it, rather than server/client/tracker. That was indeed awesome. But there was also a bit less accountability so you got a lot of sketchy/crappy stuff, whereas hl servers (and users) had somewhat of a reputation to uphold (IMO).
Of course you can. Part of the end-to-end test is to setup the test scenarios you want to test (including limited HD space etc.)

I used to be balls deep into OOP. I was in the rabbit hole. For me it was _the_ way programs had to be written. Whenever I started a new project, it would start out as a bunch of interfaces and abstract classes (with the god abstract class which everything extended from present and accounted for). At the time there was also the transition from PHP 4 to PHP 5 which unlocked a treasure trove of new OOP features and obviously every one of those features had to be used. However when things went wrong they would often turn into a nightmare, spending hours chasing down obscure bugs with endless print_r's to follow state changes. Over time I became better at managing this, keeping the amount of abstractions lower and just general better OOP design, but I was still afraid whenever things would go south, it meant hours of debugging, as was often the case. At one point or another I started asking questions about OOP design, the nature and origin of it and searched the internet for answers. Along the way I started realizing that many of the problems I was having are intrinsic to OOP. Whenever I would search for solutions to the complexity of OOP the answer would always be: you're doing it wrong.

Along the way I transitioned to OOP-less programming (I'm calling it OOP-less because I don't want to start a fight over "functional" vs "procedural" vs "..." etc...), not with the intention to do away with OOP but just to play with it. I rewrote some earlier, simple programs and what became rapidly obvious was how easy the code was to debug. The datastructures I had written prior were way too complex with too many levels and useless wrappers to make everything fit into the OOP paradigm. I rapidly became annoyed with the complexity of OOP and realized, I was in a rabbit hole and I had dug in _deep_. Even now when I'm writing bigger programs OOP-less I still find them much easier to debug. I'm still afraid debugging sessions can get rough but as time passes by this seems like more of a PTSD effect from my 15 year long OOP stint.

By now I've mostly done away with OOP programs but it's still annoying to have to interface with OOP designed libraries. I also changed my coding style camelCase to snake_case and the latter is much more legible to me but as a lot of libraries use camelCase or PascalCase it doesn't make the code look pretty.

So yes long story short, I share your assignment of blame. Complexity just seems to be the nature of the beast.

I am currently pulling BASIC and Z80 assembly programs from cassette tape that me and my dad wrote in the late 70s early 80s - games and robot armdroid drivers for the NASCOM 2, a kit computer from 1977.

Most run in the emulutor but luckily I have the original NASCOM2 and 2 armdroids so (hopefully) I can get my dad's physical SOMAS cube solver from his master thesis running again.

Older than that is a punch tape teletype 'program' that I wrote thank you letters for me, pausing for input of the names of grandparents.

What a joke! As if PRISM and the NSA weren't shown to spy on all traffic flowing through the US whether it was by US citizens or not. It's all okay when the US uses their resources to spy on foreigners but they take the moral high ground when Huawei might do it to them? All after the recent end of a pointless 20 year invasion of Afghanistan where literally 100,000s of citizens died, the whole country is fucked, in comparison to a few thousand US soldiers. Of course no one in western media even bothered reporting how many Afghan citizens died, let alone showing an ounce of remorse.

That's Javascript for you.

Summing arrays calls `.toString()` on them, and two empty string gives you a new empty string.

[].toString() === ''
[] + []

Without a doubt some of the oldest programs that can be found in the Unix ecosystem, e.g. grep, rsync, wc, tr and so many more. If you have ever done some shell scripting, you know how valuable and well conceived this programs are. So I think that they being used so often by such an enormous and heterogeneous user base so many years after they were originally conceived, says a lot about how influential they are.

The nice thing about them is that they are open source so you can have a look at how they have been implemented and probably step up your C and systems programming game a lot.
Sure, but in the wild, you would actually run the thing in the repl to see what it does. So either you know the answer or you don't and it doesn't affect whether or not you can do the job well. In my opinion binary knowledge-based questions are seldom useful unless you specifically are checking for that exact knowledge. You can have someone who is totally terrible in general but just knows that one thing or the answer to that specific trick question and you can have people who would be fantastic for the role but either don't know the answer or can't think of it because of a mental block in the moment. ie the false negative and false positive rate are too high and your question is just a random classifier.

Questions that allow a person to show their skill and their thought process are much more revealing. They're much harder to fake and bluff your way through for poor candidates and they allow good candidates to show their skill. They require a bit more effort from the interviewer though because there isn't just one right answer and you have to sacrifice the idea that you get an ego boost by dunking on some poor candidate with your trick question.

An example of a question I used to ask when interviewing candidates who said they were good at unix: "Say I have a directory full of files called a, b, c, etc and I want to rename them all to a.bar, b.bar, c.bar etc how do I do that"? Then I would follow up with "Ok now I have a directory full of files called a.bar, b.bar, c.bar etc and I want to rename them back to a, b, c, how do I do that?".

Now if you know unix you know there are a bunch of ways to do this, there are a bunch of traps you can fall into, what if there are too many files for shell expansion, what if the file names contain spaces etc. It's not hard for someone skillful to come up with a few ways that deal with these issues and if they can talk through how they did it and why then any of them are fine.

Edit to add: There is a kernel of value here though, which is say you were debugging a thing where the result was an empty string and you thought "wow, that makes no sense", maybe you get to understanding what went wrong when you see that two arrays are getting type coerced or something.

The sheer amount of bugs planted in buildings, especially at time of construction, has been an astonishing revelation to me. It’s funny to think that this is a full time job but many people have no idea it happens.
respectfully disagree. i remember also things before the internet of 2000, like TV, but not fondly at all. and in my mind somewhere around 2004 things strayed from the linear progress i had in mind for the future of the internet.

what has changed culturally is pseudonymity became real names, with all the baggage that comes with it, and that makes people more conservative. If you want an objective measure of that, look at the attitudes towards nudity. Nowadays, crypto is a space that brings back anonymity, and you can see all the chaos it brings with it. but chaos is mystery and people also love those
I can't edit anymore but I thought I should mention that some of the sensors and data we explored for various projects. I have experience trying to find data from an eeg cap. For a different project I had to use neuron firing data recorded during a surgery. I have used an accelerometer glove, eye tracking harness, pedometers, myoband.

And my favorite is heart rate data. With an ant+ sensor and a polar h10 strap you get the RR and hrv testing if you want and can even keep a live ekg graph going. As a side hackathon project, for medhacks, I wanted to see if with enough data you could find a correlation between tempo of music with your heart rate. The idea is that first the model would learn what songs paired with what music. Then if your heart rate spikes which I naively and intentionally assumed was related to anxiety, there would be a song recommend to help lower your heart. It was just a fun idea for a weekend hackathon. I couldn't get to work as well as I wanted it to.

Sensors and data analysis are the future of all medicine. But in order for the data analysis to be useful, it has to be methodology has be to rigorous with very little room for a subjective outcome.

If someone ends up taking that idea, or would like to talk more, I would love to hear about it, my email is knaik1994 at gmail dot com.
afaik Skype also was using peer-to-peer until Microsoft bought them.

The xenophobic blame game is always absurd. In this case, it doesn't even make basic chronological sense. Nortel collapsed before Huawei even established a major international presence. Huawei was barely even selling in the same markets as Nortel.

There were many reasons for Nortel's collapse: huge numbers of unprofitable acquisitions during the dot com bubble, the collapse of the bubble, the fall in demand for networking gear after the bubble, financial fraud. To pin the blame on a company that was barely even competing with Nortel at the time, and which just so happens to be the bogeyman in 2021, is just too convenient.
The + operator doesn’t work on arrays, but tries to cast the sides of it to a string. Arrays implement the toString function, which shows the toString of the individual values comma separated. An empty array returns an empty string. Which means that this is equivalent to empty string + empty string.

[ ‘foo’, ‘bar ] + [ ‘baz’ ] would return ‘foo,barbaz’
> That specific formalism is only specific to McCarthy's implementation though,

Not even that. It's the programmatic definition of the core of Lisp. McCarthy's real Lisp implementation was much more featureful.

I would also think the Lisp program in the second paper is 'Lisp Program Zero'. ;-) If your language can run it, it is Lisp. The amount of modifications necessary (syntactic, operators, semantics, ...) gives an indication how far another language is away from it.

Here is a version in Common Lisp:
