I mean, it's a wonder women still choose to have children. I see it is a triumph of the human spirit, because through a purely capitalist and individualist lenses having children doesn't make much sense.

You can just invoke make build, make test within the specific CI stages.

I was listening to a security podcast in which the host was quite proud of having lots of Yubikeys around. No way this scales to the general population.

I feel like we're way better off just sending an email every time a user logs into a new device. We already have to assume the email is secure anyway... Having to have tons of Yubikeys adds so much friction.

That's very similar to YouTube recommendations, they seem to think your tastes are too peculiar and you should be dragged down to a more popular cluster.

Hasn't crypto exploded in popularity exactly because of these centralized exchanges?

Yeah, sounds to me like one of those cases where it's best to have a social reward rather than a financial one.

They still pierce you to remove blood and you get paid for it, don't you? I don't think "it's just the plasma" makes much of a difference.

On a semi-related note, bra-kets are just magical. Programmers who deride mathematical notations, and claim we should abolish equations in favor of pseudocode, should try to get a glimpse of their power.

Pretty sure that's the estimate of carbon content, but it's a proper scientific concept.

About #3, I don't think it's more enjoyable, it's just more comfortable. Much like physical exercise, social interactions are a biological necessity. People aren't just choosing to be lonely.

With my (admittedly limited) experience with the Hadoop ecosystem, I'd sincerely beg for people to stop writing databases in Java... Apart from the way bigger system requirements, dependency version hell, having to monitor GC pauses is

Wow, colonoscopy with no sedation must be extremely awful. Isn't sedation the default anywhere? I remember the papers I had to sign were really serious about advicing sedation.

We've been really lucky so far that most marketing departments don't seem to interact with the core codebase when it comes to injecting ads, they just get a Tag Manager and can inject as many ads as they like.

Aren't GANs all about creating both the generator and the discriminator? Seems to me you can also build the "reverser" quite easily.

As far as I know, the whole tau disruption wasn't proposed by programmers, so I think we're safe on that. And proposing to write equations in books and articles with long variable names... Well, Algebra was invented for a reason.

Yeah, seems to me that languages should allow way more semantic expression than most do today. I wish I had done CS, those kinds of compiler optimization sounds so fun. I'd love to work on that

Try to solve the Schrodinger Equation for even an infinite well using long variable names. I'm not talking about using it in code, I'm talking about someone arguing that books and articles should do it as well.

Honestly Go would be a bad choice as well, wouldn't it? It's not like it has much in the way of abstractions.

sin(x) ~~ x only in radians, so honestly that's reason enough. Once in a while we get programmers wanting to disrupt mathematical notation for whatever reason... Worst I've seen so far was one arguing that equations should be wr

What are people using C and C++ for that you can comfortably use Go instead?
