I think your definition of a machine is limited to simple mechanical devices. Machines are just physical systems that perform some work. This includes cells, biological systems etc If we built a human from scratch at atom level detail then

I think sensory input is required for self awareness. Given this machine had sensors for interacting with the world, and was capable of replicating the complicated structures in our brain then yes, it could become self aware given sufficien

If you state what you disagree with, people might understand where people differ better. Do you disagree with the idea that with knowledge and time humans have the potential create any material thing? If that's a reasonable thing to as

Less code and simple are not often related.

Why would reflection break invariants? Most deserializers can pass through data into the constructor via reflection as well, where you can protect against invalid objects.

Most typed languages it's like this var account = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Account>(string/stream) That's it. No inspection or looping through trees. You can often get it to create objects via constructor for valid

I rarely have to think about deserialisation in c# or java either...

Most deserializers in typed languages allow you to deserialize straight into structs or typed objects... Serde just doesn't use reflection to do it.

I think in most ecosystems it's easier to use a prebuilt serializer/deserializer than your own format.

F# and .net core are completely open source. You don't need mono.

A broken build is meant to be everybody helps fix it situation.

You answered the question. You run as many tests as you can locally. Sometimes you can't, and the build goes red and you fix it with another commit.

Sounds like your tests are to detail orientated. Tests should test a specific business goal. You know what the goal is before you write any tests right? Otherwise why are you writing any code?

Because it's incredibly hard to do, and have some ideas to help.

That's branching. Trunk is when everyone direct push access to trunk.

That's a long time from pr to release.

I think most people I see doing scrum these days, do a story, demo a story to owner, release story. Move onto next story. Rarely do they release at the end. The review at the end is for all stakeholders to be able to catch up on what's

Juniors get less complicated and more well known tasks, but the effort involved is still high. Like digging a hole, everyone can do it, but its still hard.

When a employee moves jobs, hopefully there moving to a higher productivity job though. And the low productivity jobs go unfulfilled.

If its important why is it boring? Important implies that its going to have changes in design, changes in process which tends to mean its interesting for an engineer. I'd suggest its either interesting, your not well versed enough to

I mean two of those are agile goals. Hitting a date by striping features, or a feature with fixed scope but no fixed date.

Hypocrisy of the highest order. Complain about wealth inequality, while at the same time seek higher paid managerial jobs. Either your ok with wealth inequality, or start asking for salary to be spread around your team and sub teams. I&#x27

The philosophy of the Economist magazine could be defined as liberalism. So they're probably hyper sensitive anti liberal ideas.

by UK-Al05 5y ago
I wouldn't say they're opposite. But I would say they're ok in abandoning liberal ideals in order achieve their goals. I.E Mob justice, "positive" discrimination, silence is violence, ostracization of people who dar

I'm gay, and I have no idea what you seeing in this thread to see you react like this. I saw the odd comment, but theyve got lots of counter arguments.

I mean critical theories critique liberalism. So it's not just a few people. The movements intellectual basis has a critique of liberalism at its core.

'Woke' is illiberal. A lot of the ideas behind it attack liberalism as they see at enabling the status quo as opposed to action for change. Edit: Why are people down voting me? Critical theories are very open about their critique

It's either intersectionality or Russia? What about old liberal ideals?

Being good at making clear, useful and simple abstractions. Although not the only way being good at this, mathematical thinking helps. What information can I discard, what's important, what isn't important? The problem is you can
