That's too cynical. The truth is usually pleasant.
Chinese here. How do you guys reconcile your own torrenting, usage of sci-hub etc with the tendency to portray us as monsters for "theft of American intellectual property"? I'm granting that we did (and on a large…
Honestly, the censored stuff is crap anyways. Reading the censored stuff is what leads people to devote their lives to "politics", "activism", and "social justice", and away from the really good stuff such as math,…
I mean, it was a rhetorical question, which by definition is a question asked not to elicit an answer but to make a point.
That's just the art of writing headlines. How else do they generate online conversation except by stating it in a obviously flawed way provoking people like you to point out the flaw and people with a penchant for…
English needed spaces because the graphemes are of variable length, so without spacing there is no telling in any quick way where one meaning unit ends and another begins. The idea that Chinese "needs" spacing is a…
It's also very hard to cancel even by calling. When I cancelled my subscription last year, it wasted twenty minutes of my time even though I was firm throughout. The retaining person at one point even insulted me when I…
Not if the work is like that of a security guard or janitor. You can skip a night every once in a while and no one will notice
This is a very dangerous logic because it implies we should be fine with China stealing our intellectual property. The view should be qualified in some way so it doesn't have that consequence. They are our enemies.
Chinese in many respects is a more explicit language. Variables are generally required to "wear their types on their names". All the disease names contain the word disease (imagine if we must speak of "rabies disease"…
Would this advice apply to JavaScript (ES6)? Can anyone speak from experience?
I think this is a little unfair. Tiger parenting is never designed to make the child into some kind of Issac Newton figure. Tiger parents want their children to become financially successful - lawyers, doctors, etc.…
For me the biggest argument in favor of atom is that because it's based on chromium it displays emojis properly, in colors. As someone who makes use of emojis extensively as variable and function names, this is very…
You, sir, are exhibiting dangerous relativistic tendencies. It's imperative that this sorry excuse of a country be wiped off the face of the earth
They are literally Hitler. Anyone has the moral high ground relative to Hitler. Nuke China
No we're not the fucking problem. We are the good guys.
As someone who spent way too much time obsessing over this stuff, this is awesome and very promising. One reason I'm not happy with traditional spreadsheets is that there's no non-hackish way to implement "tagging" (as…
take restaurant choice for example. yes there's a range of options, but some of the fields instead of saying "go to restaurant A" say something like: "let google pick a random number X between 1 and 50. google…
it's not just trust. a minority person (by which i mean to include all and only the less powerful in society, which has a heavy overlap with racial and ethnic minorities) can seem completely non-threatening, but still…
i've been doing it for almost four years now, and it's amazing to see how wrong and how frequently wrong your preconceptions and expectations can be. you don't need an app to do that though. a spreadsheet is perfect for…
you should rewrite your life in Rust.
