Python was favored by universities, professors and the like a long time ago. Maybe it just had this academic feel to it.

This is even why it started to pick up in AI / ML / etc space. Some students that used it during class may also carry on with it.

It was also common for sysadmins before Go took over. A lot of the earlier tools were Python based.

Usually languages are created by people and because people like it.
I wasn't speaking specifically about XML. If anything, XML is a poor metaphor for the 2010s hype cycle, as it was a much broader early vision to unify storage and web services than what existed at the time, and garnered a lot of industry backing as a potential standard. The fact that we ended up with JSON as a standard really seems like an historical anomaly. But who cares, I used to deal with SOAP, and AMF (which passed actual types, sometimes)... I'm just happy there's a standard, even if it sort of sucks. XML was bound to be a bad standard because it was too eXtensible, but those were the early days of the web.

On the other hand, JSX is a fucking abomination on its face. All it does is flip the ugly paradigm of writing inline javascript calls inside your HTML, so now you write your HTML inside JS. It will die in a few years, and so will React just like Angular, because tightly coupling logic to display is nifty but it always exponentially increases technical debt.
I've always said that maintenance workers are the weakest link in any system.

Not sure why people are letting them off the hook. They're not supposed to use their brains, as they will always do the wrong thing. When they run into something they dim't have explicit orders to deal with, they should stop.
when i've been in that position, it was hopelessness not pride that made it hard to act on good advice
It's exactly what my father did. He took parenting classes at the library, because he wanted to learn more and didn't think that just because he considered himself successful in business and life, he would necessarily understand pedagogy. To that, I am eternally grateful to him.

It's very hard for people to swallow their pride and admit humility, to say "I don't know" and listen to the experts. I have an immense amount of respect for anybody who does, and it is an example I try to live by (though not always successfully).
Man those screenshots are rough - recognizable in some cases because I played the shit out of Myst when I was a kid, but unintelligible I’m guessing for those with no basis for comparison.
Take it easy, bro... nobody said you were wrong, just that it isn't a certainty that the person was in the wrong based on your very limited initial description. This was your friend's story, right? Are you sure you know ALL the details and not just the company's side? Were there extenuating circumstances -- any liquids nearby, were all workers provided proper footwear?

You didn't say he was running (however, why was he running? did a manager tell him he needed to hurry, did he not have enough time for a bathroom break? etc) and stairs come in all shapes, sizes, steepness, lengths, materials, and hardness of the floors under them. Nothing can 100% prevent injuries, but you can try to avoid the worst scenario. It's a factory, I get it, maybe it's not possible, but I would want to know if there had been any prior similar incidents. In any case, no matters whose fault, it still doesn't seem necessary to tell the guy to "fuck off."

We're not looking to try the case, just pointing out that it's pretty ridiculous to immediately claim a workplace incident is entirely the worker's fault.
From a user's perspective, I can see a privacy drawback as well.

Suppose that instead of a typical User table, you have a User_Revision table like suggested. Every time a user updates their account settings, you INSERT a new row there. If a user changes their email address, you get a row each time they update it.

Not only the company gets an history of email addresses, but also they are tied to each other. If this information gets leaked, the user is exposed to more vectors of attack.

This is not quite true. The biggest American wind farm (Altamont Pass) is right next to Silicon Valley in the Bay Area. The 2-9 ones are between 20-50 miles from cities. You mention these "rural" areas as if nothing would be built there. These areas are typically developed over 10-50 years, just like the Bay Area when that wind farm was built.

I disagree that normalizing violence and hate against a large and non-homogenous group is okay.
The worst nuclear disaster in history (Chernobyl) a disaster which took a specific reactor class, driven into a specifically unstable configuration, and built without specific safeguards, didn't make an area the size of Denmark uninhabitable in Ukraine.
Keep brew far away from your prod system. Everything you can‘t do in macos just use a vm.
Don‘t touch the system and Timemachine will never corrupt, its that easy in my experience.
I wouldn't call JSX an XML dialect. It's JS with the ability to use HTML tags (or things similar to HTML tags, given the class → className rename) as rvalues. The JSX HTML tags aren't valid XML, e.g. because of braces (<a href={url}>). Even if you don't use any attributes, an XML parser won't do anything useful to a JSX document.
For me, the pythonic syntax was what made me not want to try it.
Of course it's personal preference, but I can't stand anything that uses the indentation level to structure code. I love my curly braces and formatting tools.
I imagine I'm not alone in this, so there goes a chunk of people.
> recruiter called and offered crazy low base salary

This feeling is everywhere now. "But we send people on the roads here". "But we send people on the bottom of the ocean here". We are Agile and only see the quality manager when we jave an escalation meeting with the customer.
They saved my life, I'm still depressed, but I don't want to die (still don't care too much if I do, but little steps).

There's not a single conversation that I've had where my subjective experience has been relevant to the other person's opinion or position, both with family members and medical professionals.

Casually discounting my internal understanding and experience in conversations pertaining to the internal emotional state of my mind. It's fucking infuriating.

One of the weirdest parts has been the way that mental health practitioners react whenever I bring up mushrooms. They don't say anything - just look at me and wait for the topic to change.

This has happened several times, and with several different people.

The most ridiculous example was a woman who dismissed my need for mushrooms and then chastised me for refusing to slip back into SSRI induced asexuality.

Wouldn't it be better?

Well it wasn't for the first twenty years, so I'm gonna run with no.
Except almost everything brought about by capitalism where cheapness and profit were the end goals never ended well. Seed oils are not food and the fact that more than 30% of the calories of the average American come from these processed oils does not bode well for the health of our nation.
That's because nuclear is really expensive and you'd have to sell an arm and a leg to get enough of it to matter. Which is a hard sell to people. Renewables on the other hand are so profitable that investments in that are overtaking oil. They are so cheap that people are spending their own money to put it on their roofs in order to lower their energy bills. Even in places that don't get a whole lot of sun throughout the year.

So, there's a widening gap between nuclear and renewables that is investment and cost driven. To fix that, cost for nuclear has to come down by quite a large factor. Most current nuclear projects don't have the right level of ambition on this front. Which is why there just isn't a whole lot happening there.

People keep trying to phrase this in ideological terms when it's a simple economical issue. Nuclear cost needs to come down by an order of magnitude or so for it to start competing. More actually as that would be just about catching up with the current state of the art in renewables. Assuming that won't drop further would be a very bad assumption.
Electricity costs are calculated in currency per kWh generated. And on that front, wind solar beat everything else since at least 2018, by far. And those costs for solar continue to drop every year.
The effects onto men are more internal. Whereas effects onto women are normally more external.

For example, a man could allow himself to be triggered into rage. And afterwards there will be no visible signs it happened within him.

But his wife could've been around him, and now she has purple bruises.

External signs are more easily measurable, and therefore reported more, therefore readers assume the most affected.

If the man had internal bio-signals measured, such as HRV, blood pressure, etc, you'd see the effects even BEFORE that of a beaten wife. (Of course there are also long-term health issues for being a slave to rage/anger/frustration)
Can someone saying or doing something infuriatingly stupid make no difference to how sexually attractive they are?
Yeah, I've been in this game for 40+ years. Fads come and go. When I started 4GLs were going to take over everything. 10 years later it was SDDs and SDSs, then it was UML and it goes on to what's mentioned in the article.

Perhaps it is the triumph of hope over experience, perhaps those new in the field prefer to use the new tools rather than understand how the old ones work.

I think the quality of software has deteriorated, but then complexity has also gone up. One never writes anything from scratch these days, there's a tower of libraries underneath now.
Interesting that no one agrees with me but it really has been the best place i’ve found, as an iPad-first person. The mobile gaming landscape being a complete jungle makes crowdsourcing the best way to surface high quality stuff.

It is not a dichotomy, as the saying doesn't say "it must be either malice or stupidity" - it only proposes to also keep supidity in mind in case malice is assumed. Nobody is saying there can't be a third cause - you're fighting a strawman. Besides, what third reason would be relevant in this case, exactly?

Words can absolutely physically harm you. Have you ever felt your heart beating fast when someone says something that upsets you? At some point that might become a heart attack.
>Wasn't Windows Registry a (failed) attempt at unifying this stuff?

The way I see it, Windows Registry "failed" for no reason other than a handful of CLI neckbeards refusing to let go of individual .ini and other such plain text config files written however and scattered wherever they damn well please.

The Registry is really well designed, it's a central repository of settings for everything that exists in that Windows installation including Windows itself. It can hold data besides plain text. It can be manipulated both by the CLI and GUI and is easily accessed, either individual keys or in batches. It can accomodate multi-user environments independently of the file system.

The Registry still exists and is still used by most Windows programs, though unfortunately even Windows is starting to disregard the Registry with its newer developments. The Registry for me is a reminder that the programming industry is, in many ways, one of the most regressive industries ever.
> Boys will be boys, no matter what the world does.

I dunno man. In school it seems that gossiping is more or less accepted where roughhousing is clearly banned. That sure seems to me like the world is trying to repress at least part of "boys will be boys".
Well done. Very creative.
Hah. Zuck was a known destroyer since 2012 it seems.
> geeks think they are rational beings, while they are completely influenced by buzz, marketing, and their emotions.

Also geeks are influenced by whatever tool is most convenient. I’ve used XML knowing pretty damn well it was annoyingly verbose. But hey it came with all the tooling: a library to parse it efficiently, auto formatting in my editor (with folding and auto-correcting), all the docs for graduates who didn’t know it. And there was nothing else!

The same is true of : Electron, Pandas, etc.

Sometimes the “best” tool is just the “only” tool…

Yes, that's because you run fixed pitch props.
They updated the churn policy to require infrastructure teams to migrate their users, not just dump the work on them. That greatly eased the unfunded mandate load on product teams. That hasn't stopped infrastructure teams from making sweeping changes, though. There's one in particular happening now that's enormous -- to riff on the "changing the engines midflight" analogy, it's replacing the fuselage without anyone noticing.
Maybe some of those chips have some hardware support for crypto?
I've worked for a small company that does an old boring ERP. In C. The oldest files in the library date to the late '80s. The whole thing runs on a dime, is super fast, and a few developers could manage the needs of tens of clients.

Implementing orders in REST was probably done in a couple of weeks of work. PDFs have been there since ever.
> The XML ecosystem with things like XSLT, Xquery,etc, were elegant, but also overengineered and clunk

Hell those were the better XML standards. Just consider SOAP, SAML (XMLSignature is insane), etc

XML just another example that unnecessary complexity is the worst sin in software development
Factoradic is another interesting number system I've occasionally had reason to use. It's handy for counting permutations.
Another way to long at what’s happening in Ukraine: Russians have been destroying whatever power plants they could, except nuclear. With that one large dam they sabotaged 6000kmsq of farmland and rendered 600kmsq of land unusable/uninhabitable without major effort. Nuclear power plants are such bunkers you can’t do anything to them with a deniable “incident” and there’s been too much threats of retaliation if they destroy it purposely to risk it.

I had went with spaceship, virus, letting my body die.

Teleportation would kill me anyway, it is not the same person. Either getting a silicon brain or letting virus go on would kill my current self, so I chose to preserve my body; and if in third question we are sure soul exists, risking its' obliteration is never worth the gamble.

Real question: How much do you think young start-ups pay majors to add their name to the 'trusted by' sections? For me, it feels like paid adverts in search results. I always ignore/discount them. That said, 'trusted by' sections are targeting The Suits (CTOs, etc.), not hands-on folks like me.

That post was a good (or bad?) walk down the memory lane. :)
I think as a culture we need to normalise respect for both men and woman. Currently, in society violence against men is acceptable. You see it through articles like this[1] or in tv shows where it's acceptable for a woman to slap a man. Men in ads and tv shows are shown as helpless and clueless without their wives/girlfriends.

In modern media, woman are nearly always portrayed positively. Woman are always the 'girlboss', who need to show they are equal or superior to men. Practically, every male space has been feminised.

Current culture doesn't really respect Men.

A simple question for you, what exact measurable and quantifiable differences would you expect to see in, for instance, the children of psychologists of the sort this article appeals to, and those of e.g. Joe [demographically equivalent] Normal's children? And this naturally somewhat leads into, and what factors, as a society, should we prioritize?

To me it seems quite trivial to create unfalsifiable arguments, for near anything, using extremely nebulous terms like "reducing public health risks." It's not like anybody's ever going to say, "No way man - I really think we should work to increase public health risks!" But what separates science from pseudoscience is falsifiability. So it's only once you break things down into actual, specific, and measurable goals that the conversation can even begin.

---

As but one example, the most fundamental component for a society to perpetuate itself is fertility. And so, in my mind, a child's upbringing should absolutely be focused on ensuring this person will be able to both raise and support their own healthy family in the future. Yet of course even this simple goal is going to prove controversial because there's some conflict between it and certain cultural norms. And you'd need to reconcile this in some way that people, independent of worldview, can be generally happy with. I'm not sure this is possible.
"Toxic behavior" isn't a good term because it doesn't mean the same thing as "toxic masculinity". It's like calling poisonous cat food just "poisonous food" - technically you're using a correct superset, but practically you're referring to something different because you're dropping specificity.

Do you have any alternative to "toxic behavior" that doesn't have this problem? If you do I'll gladly switch my choice of terms.
The cheapest forms of electricity, measured in costs per kWh from project auctions (as in: country A wants plant of whatever form, various companies provide their bids and the cheapest offer, per kWh, wins) are solar and wind. Since 2018 at least, that coal comes usually next is simply the fault of dirt cheap, and wastly under priced, CO2 certificates.

And regardless of what politians say, when something is a good investment, somebody does it. Hence the continious growth of solar, wind seems to run into way more hurdles, from regulation over NIMBY to technical issues.
Storage does that. And potentially a lot cheaper than nuclear can. We'll have a few decades to figure that out as current legacy production seems to be more than enough to deal with grid instability.

There's probably more battery being added to grids than nuclear pretty soon.
If you used VIM, there is no possibility VSCode would feel faster in any sense, I don't understand how it is possible. You can plug in the whole VSCode tooling inside VIM making it the same in terms of functionality, and it would not affect its startup time or input lag whatsoever - it will remain unnoticeable. It is possible to open infinite copies of vim recursively inside vim's own terminal, so even if I recursively stack up 32 vims with all my plug-ins loaded inside each other, they still don't show a hint of a lag

Rust has the elevator pitch down: C but memory safe.

"very exciting features such as macro support, pythonic syntax, transpiles to C/C++/JavaScript, no VM, systems programming language, suitable for hard real-time systems etc" is not a good elevator pitch. Its a little bit of everything with no clear focus point.

So I'd say rust had better marketing.
While I agree that corporate support plays a huge role with market share and acceptance, I disagree that Go would have been laughed out of the room. Very likely that a language made by Griesemer, Pike, and Thompson would have got lots of attention. Arguably enough to catch on anyway. These men are already famous, in programming circles. Case in point, look at Jai, with just the star power of Jonathan Blow and how well known that it is. In fact, would not bet against just Ken Thompson (by himself), creating a new language and whether or not it would catch on.
That sounds like a nightmare. A cloud outage means no one can badge in anywhere, including at DCs?
I’ve been using Rancher Desktop for the last few months (with the moby runtime) and it has been working well. They just had another big release that fixed a few more incompatibility issues too. I wouldn’t call it half-baked.
Do you have any examples?

I honestly don't think the term matters. Many people don't want to think about parts of their own behavior potentially being bad, especially when they've been socially taught that those parts should be good. No matter what term I use, somebody will find a way to misinterpret it, because it's much easier than actually thinking about the topic itself.
>The issue that CRDTs are solving isn’t simply getting the bytes from one device to another, it’s ensuring that conflicts are merged in a sane way

CRDTs merge data in a predictable way but not necessarily in a consistent or correct way according to the requirements of any particular application.

I find CRDTs interesting and they are certainly useful for some types of applications with relatively lax consistency rules. But I don't see how they help with the sort of consistency requirements that finance apps are bound to have.
