> - The two missing dungeons were a non-factor (I didn't even know about this until just right now).

I enjoyed Wind Waker, but I always felt like something was missing. It felt odd that there were only two temples where the previous games had more. I also didn't know about the missing dungeons. And as another poster mentioned, apparently the dungeons were complete, but 'too hard' so they were cut. I almost wish they would have included them somehow even if it was a 'hard more' or some sort of special edition of the game.

> that success didn't do anything for the Wii U

To be fair, the Wii U didn't do much to cash in on the Wii's success other than keep the name, and confuse people as to whether or not it was a new console.
The smooth animations in Gabriele Cirulli's version are due to this API: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/window.request...

Further, the animation code is only a miniscule fraction of that code base.

Airbnb could get ahead of regulations brewing in some places by asking hosts to declare that they are offering rooms in their primary residence, even if they won't be present during the stay. Property managers and other businesses operating through the site should probably be asked to declare themselves as well.

There isn't much reason for servers to support IPv6 yet. Clients can use 6to4, and will use it as soon as they become IPv6 only, because... well, there isn't much reason for servers to support IPv6 yet. (Yep, that's circular.)

Servers will add support for IPv6 in due time, when admins get used to having it on their machines, and all network equipment supports it, and it stops breaking the sites for people on IPv4 only and people behind slower IPv6 tunnels.

"...if every bank vault in the world had a vulnerability that you (and only you) could exploit, possibly without detection (or at least with a degree of deniability)... what would you do?"

I think this completely ignores the fact that messing with the block chain would seriously screw over all the miners that are choosing this network for monetary reasons. Your analogy is flawed. Basically, it's more like "if every bank vault in the world had a vulnerability that you (and only you) could exploit, and you spent tons of money to get that vulnerability, and exploiting it would make all your money worthless, what would you do?" That's more like the actual situation here.
A. Price is a function of the buyer's willingness to pay it, not your sensibilities as an uninvolved observer or critic of the market. If it's too pricey for you, don't buy it. I, personally, think Bentleys are too expensive for a car, but I'm not buying one, so my opinion is immaterial.

B. This is a discussion of "taste" and similar preferences. Of course it's aesthetic.

My firm does industrial automation consulting. I've seen one of these in the wild at an in-house demo for a furniture manufacturer and we have an auto parts supplier who is looking at using them in production.

They seem to have a ludicrously low weight limit (I remember reading 5 lbs) and don't seem capable of tasks where you need a programmer for automation (welding, quality checking, etc, etc.)

I would not discount the likelihood of managers and owners getting unduly excited and buying ten of them before having to quietly admit to themselves it was a mistake.
There's no real campaign against smoking in Japan. The most "anti-tobacco" ads you see are about making sure you don't bother people around you when you smoke. And they don't really work, because smokers in Japan are completely inconsiderate of people around them. In Europe I have seen many smokers asking in restaurants before lighting one "does it bother you if I smoke?" but in Japan this would extraordinary to hear that.

So, yeah, Japan, people, politeness, respect, etc... well yeah, it kind of works, but in many situations it's sub-standard.

I wouldn't say this is necessarily a bad thing, but more like the effects of market correction as our entire workforce transitions to a higher level putting pressure on people to operate at a higher cognitive level. And, I think we would want as much of our population as possible in cognitively demanding positions, and having the ability to outsource labor to other countries helps that happen. Now the next question I see is- 'Is our education system ready for that?' and I don't know a lot about the inner workings of it, but my gut feeling says we're not there yet.

Yes, good point. I suppose replaceEach() would be a more descriptive name, so the interface might be HasReplaceEach. It's not as easy to talk about, though. Still better than "functor".

(The function being passed in to map() is an alternate way to represent a very large map, in a mathematical sense.)
> If you graduate from an elite university, and you are sharp enough to find the next wave to surf, America is still a fine place to be. But the cost of that education is crazy now. Your parents have to among the fortunate to afford it.

Not really. That's a pernicious myth. The elite universities have amazing financial aid which actually makes it easiest to attend for those who can least afford it. The hurdle is getting in, which by definition is impossible for the vast majority of Americans.

Not that any of this matters. The continued success of the elite is irrelevant to the continued struggles of the 99.5%.
There's a lot more to an actual Lisp than lambda calculus. No Lisp ships with just lambda – that would be absurd and unusable. So there are design choices: choices of standard functions like "car", "cdr", "set" – and what kind of scoping "set" implements. The Common Lisp and Scheme specs are literally lists of design choices.

Idk if I agree that objective-c is simpler to learn. I have been working as a full-time ios developer for almost 2 years now and I still have to consult fuckingblocksyntax.com on a weekly basis. And fully understanding objective-c's "message passing" idea is hard because it's so radically different from other languages.

And sure you can whip together a simple app using all the documentation and tutorials out there for objective-c. But objective-c has a lot of gotchas that make it easy to do bad things as you start to build a larger app. Like retaining self implicitly because of an ivar in a block... Can't tell you how many times that is bitten us.

That being said, have you tried to use Swift with the core foundation framework? Yikes. I spent hours yesterday trying to understand how to simply pass a pointer to a function. The type was something like CMutablePointer<Unmanaged<SecKey>?>. Hopefully it'll get easier as the documentation improves though :)
People are a big asset for Starbucks. They are trying to make a visit to SB a personal, warm experience. And the staff is key to that, they don't want grumpy and hate-this-job-a-lot people.

Once when I was in SB, the doors to the personnel room were open and I saw bunch of hand drawn things, hand written colourful weekly goals (rather than just printed), etc. That shows their, management people, approach and goals.

So I think this decision fits in pretty well in their long term mission.

"we would want as much of our population as possible in cognitively demanding positions, and having the ability to outsource labor to other countries helps that happen"

1) What if you had a brother with an IQ of 98. Would you rather he had a respectable factory job, or become homeless?

2) Are you aware that many of the least-tradable services are the least "cognitively demanding"? So I guess you want to tailor the bell curve of the population so that everyone is either > 120 so that they can do very highly cognitive work, or < 80 (so that they are content doing extremely menial work). Isn't it a little inconvenient that around 68% of the population is 85-115 IQ?
I entirely disagree. As most all open source projects, Ruby has a set of core contributors, but is clearly open to community contribution, as can be seen from their Git repo's history (https://github.com/ruby/ruby/network). And no, core communication and decisions are NOT opaque to outsiders, as is the usual case with most open source software (Google groups, mailing lists, IRC channels, etc). And lastly, language features and design is a product of the RubySpec, which is itself a Git repo for people to contribute to possible language design/syntax/core libraries for Ruby VM implementors to introduce (https://github.com/rubyspec/rubyspec/).
Nothing fuzzy here. It is an extremely well-calculated ROI move from corporate. Win hearts and minds of the bean-proles on the front lines, and you get increasesed productivity via an enhanced sense of belongining.

The semi-unspoken part of this is that given the way the economy is, Starbucks will likely never lack job applicants, so even if they help existing employees get better jobs and leave Starbucks, all they are doing creating new entry-level job openings, while raising brand awareness, and also ensuring that their departing employees are going to jobs that will help them afford 5$ coffees. ;-)
Show HN : Funny developer picture site
Last time I was in Shinjuku (2009) there were actual cigarette police in special uniforms who followed smokers around and publicly chastised or fined them if they littered. I saw 3 salarymen get busted within about 15 minutes. The fact that this system even exists indicates that the Japanese do litter.

On the flipside, all the fast food joints had wastebins sorted by garbage type, and I did get death stares when I accidentally put some rubbish in the wrong one. Eating while walking also got dirty looks, but conversely you could buy beer and snacks on some of the trains and drinking alcohol in public is allowed.

That's a whole lot of disruption! Really shaking up those old-school mentalities!
And again after 9/11. In lot of places you can still see the bins, but there are shut by concrete or steel plates.
What's really nice is that during the World Cup, after a game the Japanese fans were seen[1] cleaning up litter from the stadium. A great set of people!

[1]: i.imgur.com/pTrgXWI.jpg
And, of course, getting rid of wastebins in the UK hasn't stopped bombings altogether, but it has made it frustratingly difficult to dispose of your litter (I do happen to always take mine with me anyway, but evidence suggests plenty of people don't). Much better - and in use in sensible locations - is a simple transparent bin/bag. Why they're not in use in more places, I'm not sure.

Yeah I really had no idea what it was. I think the TripExpert number score is enough. That's the number that matters. At least that's what you're telling me, so why muddle that with another number.

The main reason to include the 5 star rating would be if your score was relative to that. For example, an 80 at a 5 star hotel was much better than an 80 at a 3 star hotel. But I don't think that's the case, is it?

I'd agree with some of the other commentors' sentiments voicing that you should start out with Objective-C, but less so because of immature tooling.

For me personally, I'd be more concerned about someone in your position trying to learn Swift now because it's an incredibly immature language. Core language-level changes IMO are the hardest to cope with, as they can have a severe impact on code written in a previous version of the language, not to forget how much of a mental cluster-f!#@ it can cause.
Just because money seems to be the most tangible thing in life it does not apply to the world. Some people value more love, health or ideals than money. Those people are quite rare to find, but they exist either unknown or known (such as Jesus, Hitler or El Che).

ISPs aren't stopping people from signing up for Netflix because they won't allow the maximum performance subscribers' service plans specify. Accepting pay for service isn't dishonest. Accepting pay for service you don't provide is.

Netflix has Internet Connection Speed Recommendations (https://help.netflix.com/en/node/306). ISPs offer service plans that cost more for higher maximum speeds. Is it Netflix's responsibility to ensure particular subscribers receive particular qualities of content, without regard for the contents' source qualities, the subscriber's bandwidth, the policies of their ISP, or any other range of factors in the last mile? Netflix is offering content, not quality. It doesn't sell differently priced subscriptions based on "maximum video quality", it offers a range of bitrates at a flat rate and sends the one that allows the best experience for your bandwidth.

Although, that's sort of the issue, isn't it? It's not "your" bandwidth that determines that now. It's not the plan you're paying your ISP for that's the limiting factor, it's the ISPs particular traffic shaping policies. Netflix isn't slowing its traffic down or decreasing video quality prejudicially based on your ISP or internet plan. It's the opposite, but they're being asked to pay, rightfully or not, so that some of their subscribers won't have their bandwidth throttled by their own ISPs.

To many in higher education, it is a fairly acute concern, and one they're working on figuring out the root causes of.

Seriously, the underperformance of boys in school and the declining number of men, and especially minority men, in higher ed. is a pretty active area of discussion in both education and most gender studies departments.
One could say the answer is to grow the pie. Not sure how you do that with less education.

There are definitely some pretty serious barriers - the male nurses I've talked to reported some of them and that their opinions seem to carry more weight. They're not mutually exclusive.

The most common negative complaint I've heard is that, despite being nurses, they often get cast as "muscle", holding down patients and the like, which is both dangerous (struggling patients, needlestick, etc.) and also pretty antithetical to the reasons most nurses chose their profession.
No, but going to college is not necessarily for a BS/BA degree. Take a pharmacy technician for example. You need to at least complete community college and get a certificate.
If you increase the percentage and not the number of degrees, nothing should change.

If the number of degrees are increasing past the replacement rate of the profession, that's something the profession has to deal with regardless of the gender of those new degrees.
It annoys me you're being downvoted. I don't necessarily agree with you either, but I see nothing worthy of a downvote here.
