One area where lack of gendered nouns is valuable is for non-binary people (those who are neither men or women). In languages like Arabic or Hebrew, this gets very difficult as a binary gender generally must be assigned to first-person pron

I was about to suggest Python 3, but it seems Python 3.0 released December 3, 2008. Barely missed it!

I think you're confusing "keyword" with "reserved word". A keyword has a special meaning in certain circumstances, while a reserved word cannot be used as an identifier. In some languages, those are the same thing.

> If it's cosmetic, then I could see the argument. Then there's another problem: who defines what is considered "cosmetic"? Most insurance companies currently don't cover e.g. facial feminization surgeries for tr

One of the big reasons is that if you're using kernel headers and internal structures, like with kprobes, they're unstable APIs, and the struct offsets may change between kernel versions. You can compile for each kernel type you&#

That's assuming the box can generate certificates trusted by the target machines - there's a reason the CN field exists.

Being trans isn't limited to the bedroom. It's not related to sexuality, although there are correlations. The sort of "human playing a human" argument is exactly what is talked about in the Riddle scale. Watching cis peo

I'm not really seeing that part of the argument. From what I can tell, the crux of her argument differentiating it between blackface is that being trans is a theatrical act. She literally says "I think the performative nature of t

I have some fundamental problems with her approach to political correctness in the Medium article. Too many to go over, but the simplest and most frustrating is the complete disregard for the experience of transgender people, stating that i

It may have made the women you've talked to feel better, but personally, I'm not a fan of the idea that I'm simply less biologically capable than men in any way.

While generally true, I've also found free apps are usually decent and not-scummy if they're open source.

I disagree. I'd say having all of the work in 1 commit makes it more likely to have been created by a young programmer. What impresses me the most, and makes me skeptical, is the good code style. I know at least 3 12 year old programme

Nitpicky detail: a lot of the time, the pointer variable passed to be written to is not on the stack, e.g. using strcpy with a malloc'd buffer.

I'm confused why NirSoft software is not open source. I've always seen open source as easier than doing all the work on your own.

You say that as if it's an inherently bad thing. Different people have different passions, and assuming one's own interests are "more important" seems kind of ridiculous to me. Most people simply use their language to co

I personally feel a separation of what someone's fantasies are is completely separate from what they would enjoy in real life. An example might be violent videogames - sometimes going on a murder spree is fun, but that's completel
