Not just lanes! We have entire routes exclusive to bicycles and use bicycle lanes only as a fallback where there are none

Except with bicycles you very well can find a plane to jump out with no ground to be seen. Your analogy is car brained and bad. I live in germany and have an extremely safe bike commute. I would not commute by bike in the US tho

Thats why we recommend obese people to walk first, even if they think they would enjoy running.

I'd say the electronic frontier foundation is the best candidate. They have been exclusively doing advocacy since forever

hundrets is a bit bold unless you include phytonutrients and subtypes per mineral. twenty to thirty would be exhaustive. 5 minerals and 5 vitamins would be a good start

Not really. You could create several cohort with different co-controlled fixes for each: more calories, more protein, more fiber, more nutrients. Then evaluate the percentage of successfully treated patients in each cohort. It's of cou

Imo DS/Algs to an extent are a good prerequisite. Once you know them in one language that knowledge is portable enough to get you up-to-speed in $lang. Then, and no earlier will I start worrying about doing real things in my programs a

Most of these wouldn't qualify as "puzzles", would they? I find it nice to learn new languages via data structure puzzles, because to me the data structures of a language feel like the grammar and once I have that down everyt

Additionally I am bothered by the insistence of these outlets to forego connecting the brain and the mind, as well as hormones and feelings. Like cortisol and dopamine or whatever are just chemical representations of feelings, are they not?

This is the root cause. "AI and Bots" are just two of the many symptoms

I should add this works best if you hire with some diversity, such as one Junior with a preference for security topics. If you go up to the counter and yell "10 React devs please", don't be surprised
16.
by _xiaz 2y ago
Also no review or planning anywhere in that process. I'm semi-confident that if a Junior were to talk to another Junior before starting about things to look out for, and then the code was reviewed by say a third Junior, they would not

It's about the same level of solved as moon landings and supersonic flight... If we could now find out how to do security in an economical, non-annoying way, that would be great

This is a bit of a stretch, but I'm willing to entertain the idea if you could toss me a link or two to more in-depth write ups on the topic

While the conclusion that engineers leave because they aren't paid enough does hold some truth, I'm much more compelled to cite the old "People quit managers, not jobs" saying.

> But I hope it doesn't end up like a hairball a few releases down from increase of pace or something. Rich Hickey and the rest of the Clojure Team are very careful designers. I wouldn't worry too much

I'll second this. Many people are happily complacent with mainstream languages. A minority ventures out in $lang of the day for the fun of it, with functional languages being an even smaller minority. At a minimum, build some strong cl

No, as in zero, (side) effects means no program for most domains. For me, the essence of FP is the minimization of global state

Then stay away from it if you can. GTD is great if you're a manager with a wive and kids and maybe a foundation to run on the side. If you don't usually forget tasks/events or freeze up because of analysis paralysis, you can

Because he founded ycombinator, he should be allowed at least a little more leniency. Of course if he goes around directly and explicitly bashing all sorts of minorities or doxxes some other users or commits any other actual big nono, sure
