Cars are dangerous so they should have used a helicopter, helicopters aren't dangerous, also the speeds are a lie, lamborginis can't drive that fast on roads, especially cos you can't pass on the left in Europe. Glad to tap i

IDEs are one of the biggest barriers to programmer development, flexibility and knowledge. They try to insulate you from your actual environment and encourage lazy practices and thinking. I learnt java in eclipse and it was dreadful. Code c

I suggest this person writes a game in rust and then writes this article, otherwise what's the point? Is the main issue in game development memory safety? Cos if it isn't then why would rust be better? Whenever I see people progra

The solution can't be to fake scp over sftp. How does adding this confusing complexity help to make anything secure?

Our software is slow enough and the people who make it already removed enough from what's actually happening without espousing yet another level of abstraction which will make all of this worse. The idea we need so much software it

I think if you make a load of simplified sweeping generalisations about clothing and it's symbolic role in our culture you can come to some pretty banal yet fashionable conclusions. Oh look mens clothes are about power, womens clothes

So, as outcomes for kids are hugely affected by the school they go to, you'd like to take kids OUT of schools where they're expected to do really well and put them into schools where they probably are not going to, in the hope the

I'm not refuting anything! What I'm saying is if you claim to know how to change and improve education you better have some evidence to support your claim. As to why I feel like I can comment..my father has been an education consu

You think getting good students to go to crappy schools is a way to improve those schools? I'd say you don't know anything about schools then. And you think randomly selecting students instead of selecting them on the basis of mer

If you're suggesting that people who make software could benifit from being more rounded human beings then I agree. What would be the cost of from moving CS away from its current home?

My, admittedly limited, understanding of current social science theory seems to claim more and more that boundaries of race, class, gender etc are real boundaries that preclude identification and understanding. I identify with men, because

Entities and disciplines can communicate without being the same. An idea we seem to be losing, not in small part thanks to social science.

I like the idea that we should make the fact that it isn't real science concrete so people know what they're getting into. Allying it with the bit of universities that have abandoned any idea of the value of ideas being linked to

My bank account went up £3000 in one day, the day before I got £0. That's a growth rate of infinity percen, I'm a bit worried how the universe is going to accommodate this growth rate.
