It is perfectly fine argument for calling out hypocrisy though, and I think that is the main point of it.

Yeah, I totally agree with the sentiment of the article. While Lisp my have been cool in the 80s, it's not the 80s anymore and nobody wants to write AST directly. No matter how powerful the technique , it's way too low level for t

Huxley and Orwell views are not contradictory. They are complementary and we have both now. Both authors ideas are already a reality.

Thanks for the suggestion. I kind of already know that. But does c# has something like scrapy? Scrapy is really good for scraping, makes it really easy to write all kind of scrapers and the performance is excellent for something you hack u

Well. I tried cxfreeze first, an sit failed on including tkinter properly. And while pyinstaller handled tkinter w/o issues, it failed miserably with scrapy requiring workarounds and many trial and errors. Anyway, having packaged apps

So aticle is from 2015. End of 2017 I wanted to make really simple GUI for a python script. It turned out making a GUI with 5 buttons and shipping it as exe in Python 3.6 is extremely complicated and convoluted. I wrote the main logic in 3

So much Mozilla bashing in the comments here. And in general. Mozilla doesn't improve Firefox: FF is so slow I am using only Chrome now. Mozilla improves Firefox: why did you break my extensions. Mozilla add data collection: you are no

Chrome is a different browser than Chromium. For example you install chrome you get Adobe Flash automatically. Yes they use the same render engine but nowadays the browser is more than simply rendering html and executing Javascript .

In answering questions like that, like "X solves this big societal problem why don't we use X?" I think the reasons have little to do with the problem in question. It usually boils down to who profits from the current status

Wow. This is fun. I remember my Windows98 had the same feature. You just use Administrator with empty password and you're in. Apple is finally catching up.

Well I too get down votes very often. And basically if I comment something on HN I count it as success if my karma doesn't go down after I comment. Because of this I tend to see HN as this club of extremely narrow minded people where a

Oh :) now it's 65 million. I thought it's 55 :) I really thought the more like 25 million on Soviet Union side were during the WW2. While you can attribute some of the to communism most of them you should be the Germans fault.

As a person living in a former communist country I find it quite amusing that after the communism was replaced by capitalism population increase went from a steady increase to steady decrease. But you know while we talk about how many peop

Or maybe 18 million to get me started according to the the same article. Which one? Let's take something in between. 37 million. Now I have to find 63 million instead of 45. But that's only part of the problem. The other part is h

I don't see how you'd equate communism and nazism. But whether they are the same or not how did you come with 100 million deaths for which the communism is responsible? It sounds plain ridiculous.

by zaro 9y ago
Well it's very valid reason. Companies like Google and Facebook do influence their users, and do define how they interact. So banning the big tech companies is kind of protection against this, as US influence can be really toxic for lo

So basically nothing new. Nothing about channels, ASGI or any async support which IMHO are way overdue to be included.
