You may have found it to be a waste of time, but I thought it was a pretty good introduction. Probably the furthest I've gotten into Common Lisp over the past ten years or so.

That's a good point with regard to some Democrats, but I'd imagine such things are why Bernie is as popular as he is.

I wonder if you show this kind of disdain toward all types of fashion--like the clothes you yourself wear--or just toward certain things you likely associate with "hipsters" or some other easily-disparaged group? I'm not sure

> The nation as a whole determined spying for averting war, competing, and so on is morally acceptable. They've kept it legal for decades. I'm sure you have a source for this assertion, but I don't recall ever having voted

In response to your last paragraph, what if an organization is more good than bad and the bad they do is really bad? Does it really matter if there are also good people working there? Even if you can argue that we need the good stuff the go

You're denigrating her because of her hairstyle and perceived political leanings? How is that relevant to the content of the article? You don't think she could possibly have relevant experience in spite of these things? Your comme

Using a JS framework like jQuery or Angular or React isn't even remotely similar to Enterprise Java Beans and all that nonsense. You must be joking.

And then there are the "retro hipsters" who stick with "vanilla JS" and jQuery (not a framework?), smugly denigrating the new wave of modern "hipsters". Repeat ad nauseum.

I can't think of anything that's particularly constructive to say, but I find your comment... irritating. It's likely that you are simply wrong. It sounds like you are personally upset that your creation was modified by other

So, it's a pretty common problem. I think everyone knows that. Does that mean we shouldn't address the problems in front of us?

> No one should be given a free ride because they are [X, Y, or Z] ... Is that stated in the article somewhere? I'm pretty sure it's not. It also doesn't say anything about "handouts". It only says that certain p

Although if Homebrew wasn't using Google Analytics, maybe people would. It could just be a "Do you mind sending us anonymous usage data? [y/N]" prompt. Many other apps do something equivalent, and I don't mind givin

I think most people aren't concerned so much about sharing usage data. The problem is specifically the way it's being shared via a third party. Other apps ask if I mind sharing some data (e.g., Firefox), and I don't have a pr

The most common definitions of political anarchy (if you will, as opposed to simplistic "anarchy = chaos" definitions) indicate that it's a form of society. Typical tenets include free association and mutual aid, which are in

Doesn't that disregard the fact that most Indians who might want to come to the US and succeed can't? You're looking at a relative handful of successes and disregarding all the people who didn't make it.

I think your response is missing the point. Of course you have to avoid hitting someone even if they're technically in the wrong. The point was that people feel entitled to do things without even a basic understanding of the law (or ev

I'm not sure this the best opportunity to proselytize. Also, anecdotes about famous people don't really mean much.

Right. Issues that were caused by people distorting the truth instead of giving it to you straight.

The language in the article is ambiguous. There are a places where it uses "vehicle" and other places where it uses "car". The latter seems to indicate this is aimed at non-commercial passenger vehicles. The article also

It seems like this is an issue with most operating systems. Regarding Python in particular, RedHat/CentOS seems particularly "bad". My take is that the OS-installed tools, such as git or Python, are generally for use by the s

Yeah, I was wondering if maybe that research didn't apply to power users. Regardless, for me personally, I mostly use the keyboard in an IDE (vim style) but find the mouse is much better for certain things. Even when I use straight vim

People usually claim that one thing is more productive than the other without any real evidence. I think it's mostly just so we can stick with something out of familiarity. Or sometimes it's so we can switch to something else beca

It's not like you can't use keyboard shortcuts in a modern IDE. And for some tasks using the mouse actually is faster. I think there's some research by Apple (?) that shows this.

The article pretty clearly states 2FA was enabled for the Namecheap account in question. In fact, that is sort of the whole point of the article.
