The more important message hinted at in the article I guess is that Web3 is being driven not organically by consumer desire or need but VC backed entities hoping to make it their garden you can play in.

Having been primarily a Scala dev for the last 12 years I feel like people have slowly lost their minds over what pragmatic FP in Scala should be. People are willingly recreating the Java situation of 'I don't know the project yet

Without being at all patronising, you're lucky to be able to have such a binary view of mental and physical health. There are so many non-temporary conditions that people live with that can lead to wanting people, very rationally, to s

And it's butt jointed. There's no engineering excellence unlike the lego pieces themselves. It's really not hard to do better even just with cncing dovetails. Outrageous indeed.

I 'run' my own micro arts fund providing support for people in MH communities that would like supplies or tools to help as part of their ongoing rehab or change of career as a way of getting back into a life that means something.

I think we all know how editorialising can create inference. The targeted pedantry is actually counter productive to the genral discussion of an article and its merits.

It is as good as any if you have no financial constraints and no technical overhead and time constraints, but everyone does. Kafka is one of those systems that needs to be justified by out-scaling other solutions that don't come wedded

People talk about things like Bitcoin as a threat to sovereign currencies, and they are, as competitors, of sorts No, they're competitors for the stores of sovereign wealth that are the backing of sovereign currencies.

Because they actually are in debt to the tune of $300bn but they've managed to keep playing so they stay afloat. This would be the moment the music stops.

So people watch it without the prejudgement and bias of knowing what the wider group thinks and dislike on their own judgement. That seems like a simple solution to coaching people into good curation patterns and behaviour. It will likely s

These patterns are so vague and high-level that you could just throw a dart in one of them and it'd work OK for whatever some company is doing. Almost no one is solving issues that can only be described in one pattern. If anything peop

This is the person you need. Be assured that they were the person willing to log into the live prod server to fix that script that was killing your startups app at 2am on a Friday night in 2007 when everyone else was too gun-shy.

Isn't that basically what HOAs do but mask it under a chain of trivial sounding issues?

And then you've just created a chain of legislation with the associated loopholes and confusion which will allow corporations to hide and deny any of it happening and then using legal fog to stonewall any Govt investigations and force

Willingness to have sex with another male is not being "gay". Attitudes towards gender and sex are not just a new thing, many cultures, historically, have had far more fluid concepts of these things.

When I finally lose my mind and think that DSLs solve more problems than they create over the medium term and beyond.

It's a piece of tangible performance art, which is unusual and not the medium they expected.

No it doesn't, it makes you are more learned person. That's not the same as better for any humanistic definition of better.

I've been a Scala and FP developer since 2009ish and it suffered initially from over-enthusiasm to make it seem 'futuristic' as a rejection of the overly verbose reality of enterprise java codebases. There's been a lot o

It's a 3d printed shell and some fairly stock bits. How anyone thinks that justifies nearly $200 assembled is beyond me. Also almost all claims that a specific keyboard / mouse design from someone 3d printing their own stuff is er

You're not. At least for a good few decades more. Anyone committed to self driving cars needs to be a road building company and own the road network that will manage these mostly-automated efficiency lanes, with car provision (more lik

Assuming that in any give situation, the only correct decision in the absence of any knowledge is the most conservative one. Which this would disprove and thus the argument is provably false.

I think this is over-sold, but psychology as a field is absolutely closer to philosophy with a veneer of science put on top than the field would have you believe from the outside, and psychology as a job is absolutely not science based day-

This is just a misunderstanding of how creative people work vs algorithms. An algorithm will aim to make you look similar to what other people like you look like. It will not push boundaries or riff on creative 'happy accidents' b
