Airbnb hasn't been around for all that long. Why didn't they write their library with python3 support in the first place? Yes, there are some python2 features that work differently in python3. But python3 has existed for a decade

App stores are kind of nonsense, and I don't see how they are relevant. People install all sorts of software. Windows users have to go find a proper web browser and install it in order to use "modern" sites. Rather than havin

A properly written python2 module will already be python3 compatible, in most cases. Occasionally, modules that violate existing best practices will do so in ways that limit python3 compatibility. They can be fixed with automated tools that

It's a slight overstatement for rhetorical purposes. Supporting python3 is not a difficult problem even for large libraries with single maintainers; as I noted, automatic translation tools exist.

This article lays out an argument that's clearly intended to be a strawman, but that I find completely reasonable. (Some elements are clearly exaggerated: there's a difference between a website "not working in Sudan" and

Lots of library maintainers can't be arsed to put parentheses around their print statements (and perform the occasional slight change to other behaviors), or to run any of the automated tools that perform these compatibility-preserving

Direct neural interfaces have been on the market since the late 80s. Can't journalists fucking google before submitting stories like these?

The best way to encourage innovation is to "stifle" it by producing unusual and complex situations that require creativity to circumvent. Regulation, because it is at least theoretically a codification of the desires of a large po

Having a ticket system like this and forcing reviews through the chokepoint of busiest person in the company is pretty stupid, and it's probably putting a lot of pressure on the CTO. If the CTO is under pressure, he will probably be mo

Not much would happen. Big chunks of what constitutes OS X is already open source. Nobody runs GNU/Darwin the same way nobody runs Plan 9. Apple's market is primarily geared towards people who aren't interested in the tech an

If you're going to code while walking on a treadmill desk, I'd recommend using a hand-held one-handed chording keyboard/mouse combo like the Twiddler or the Chordite, so that you don't accidentally jog the keyboard/

Hashtable lookups are O(1). What are you complaining about? If they did this in plain C they'd probably end up using binary search trees and then everything would be slower.

I definitely feel like the author was trying to write a very different article. An article about the way that Meier's western-centric view of history caused the system he implemented to have interesting systematic biases that limit the

Freeciv seems pretty easy to patch. So, if you wanted to "disrupt" Civ, you wouldn't necessarily need to write much code.
