Thanks for the David Foster Wallace, I doesn't know that guy, I will look deeper into it. Yep, I'm aware that those 'basic truths' are valuable and I don't say otherwise. The Chomsky quote wasn't just about tha

Sure! ;) As a human being, share is not a priority but it's vital to mankind. I didn't say to be a hermit, we need to cross genes sometimes!

I read those maxims and there is one that surprised me: "Hire a psychotherapist". What? Ok... I bring one from another context who IMO fits well here: "The point of public relations slogans like “Support our troops” is that t

I'm trying a reverse strategy. The basic idea is to learn to do nothing at all. Really nothing, except breathing, eating, drinking water and sleeping. The purpose is to filter out any activity that challenge breath, eat, drink and sl

I don't think 'internet.org' is the best way to teach the lowly users how to best spend their money. The responsability of teaching should be public (so like a government), not just 3 random guys. Zuck also says "you

I don't disagree, but it's not because his wealth is actually valued at 45B that he deserves more democratic power than me or anyone else in the US or the world. This trend for "corporations can make the world better" is

I would like to see the citation too. Joke: in the late 80s, Stasi employed nearly 1 person for 50 people in East Germany. They just say they can do that 5 times better with internet, not impressive in 30 years of technical progress. Give u

Yep, it seems to me that it's only an ad (hidden in the last paragraph) for the book about that salary thing. Basically, this guy want to use the Paris Hilton Syndrom to growth. I'll be famous coz I'm rich coz I'm famo

Are you sure about 1? Where are the maths please? In my little circle, the only people who have raspberry already have awesome computers and co. Curious about that.

I don't think they need to be informed. Crystallizing on the fact that every terrorists are muslims is like saying that most serial killers are on average 1m75 and each pedophile have one left foot and one right foot.

Please, wars of religions are from the 16th century [1]. In 2015, it's probably more linked with the foreign affairs and military operations. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Wars_of_Religion

I want to think basic income is a good idea. But how the "bonus salary" will be calculated in the case of political jobs (to legislate) and above all army? Is there any texts on this subject?

Yes, it's easier to explain haskell with lists but having nice type signatures just hide reality and that's bad. If someone want to compute lists, it could use a spreadsheet program. It's just better!

I think it's sad to resigning like that but the newcomer argument is misused in this controversy. I started learning haskell 3 years ago with no background in CS nor in mathematical expertise. So I feel like I'm still a noob toyin

Tax as money needs to move otherwise it has no value. If you want to pay the least possible taxes, don't be surprised if your government will do its best to not support you, to not help you, to not listen to you... "The less

I think you can love it. Brutalism is the clear representation of how a few people (mayors, architects, ...) brutally decide how people can blossom and prosper . It's tragic and beautiful (in my opinion). Those visual representations

I don't think so, and if any, it's worse if you're non-US. The main purposes of those bills is to allow things already used on non-US citizens (when the traffic goes through US).

And it is a dramatic error. If 4% of people only speak a functional programming language, does it mean that you never need to learn one? Just because the vast majority historically speak imperative doesn't mean it's the best f

I don't think technology has some dark magical power where we can put our scruples into. Those scurple coming from that absurd job struggle. Are we so bored with the struggle for life ? Is that game really fun?
