    There's nothing "adult" to anime just like there's nothing "adult" to videos.

    You're technically right, but, let's face it, a large amount of anime that's been produced lately is targeted at sexless male otaku(then again that new BEPAPAS series looks interesting, but let's face it Ikuhara's a creep).

    I do watch Japanese porn regularly (sorry) , and I've never heard of anybody half famous that goes with the name Momoko. A quick google indicates that a "Momoko Tani" is a "Japanese Idol" that wears suggestive clothings (usually scanty swimsuits/bikinis), but not anything that you could call "porn".

    Gravure IS PORN.

    Also, Momoko Miyu is a Japanese porn actress in proper AV films.

    Perhaps it's not the weird Japanese names that's causing Google to give you all those Chilling Effects, but maybe "upskirt"? I've turned off any "safe filters" in Google, and probably my jurisdiction is less anal about child porn (but I haven't seen any of child porn in those searches), so I can't check whether "Jessica upskirt" (or whatever) gives you the same warning, but I suspect it would

    Still, it's incredibly tasteless. It'd be just about as tasteless if I saw libseme or libuke or libyaoi in an apt/yum/etc. package requirements list.

    It's not FUD or bullshit. Violet Blue isn't anyone I'd call a prude, not by a goddamned long shot. She's a sex advice columnist who's very sex positive. But she's saying that this shit isn't what any reasonable professional should have to deal with, whether it be in IT, finance, legal or any other side of any sort of business anyone's working in.

    Don't shove sex where it doesn't belong. It belongs in a bar, flirting(in a respectful manner) or on Fetlife, or any other number of outlets for sexual expression. An apt, yum, etc dependency list? No way.

    Just because you're not being paid doesn't mean that you don't have to be professional on some level.

    I don't care, I simply don't care.

    They might have a case, I'm hedging my bets that they don't.

    I don't give a shit though. Until a single HTC shipment's barred from entering the country, or Apple's been smacked down, I really don't care.

    ECMA != JS.

    In reality, JavaScript is rarely ever parsed through anything that's a pure ECMAScript engine. A vast majority of all Javascript is rendered by browsers and that's where JS gets messy.

    Well put, but I think the privilege card is thrown all too often in place of a real argument(as well as potentially derail everything from a "what you said" to a "who you are" argument).

    I'm personally of the opinion that if It needs to come to privilege checking, just stop and walk away.

    But that's my point.

    Teaching kids JS first then real OO languages later will confuse the crap out of them.

    Having experience with a real OO language, or something close to it, will help students cope with general JavaScript wackiness.

  8. Re:Ideal IDE on Stanford CS101 Adopts JavaScript · · Score: 2, Insightful

    oh god no.

    JS is a HORRIBLE language to teach newbies.

    From my point of view, JS is a horrible kludge of compromises and should be left up to coders who have a more firm grasp of object orientation, types(Yes, it's loosely typed, but beginning CS should really enforce both the ideas that data, whether it's strings, ints, etc, is just a pile of number values, but also how important it is to abstract that out) and algorithms. That being said, JS isn't a bad *language* per-se in reality, once you understand the limitations it presents, and as well, how to best wring out functionality out of it's flexibility.
