Anyone who is disenfranchised by words that have practical technical meanings, they will not be successful in cs. Foo and Bar should be changed because the acronym is derived from fubar which has bad language in its meaning.
I support his change because the current terminology reminds me of the fact that the middle east and Africa took more white European slaves than the white Europeans ever took from Africa (not to include the record setting amount of African slaves taken by the sultans of Arabia throughout history).
PS: This is virtue signalling by python devs. Its the equivalent of posting a selfie of themselves giving money to the homeless, which would be more productive in California.
OA benefits the consumer in the short term. If everything has to be OA then there will be no profit and there will be no reason for those things to exist. Before anyone questions it, yes, currently the world still runs on monetary gains.
Why? I have no kids and I dont care about those that come after me. Unfortunately for earth, most people have my mind set. Maybe we should have encouraged people to have kids so more people would care about the future of society.
I meet people (developers) who move from cali to reno NV all the time in order to escape high taxes. After this, they will be escaping either higher taxes (to further subsidize solar) or high taxes AND high energy prices. This law will have to come with a tax on people moving out of state, or some sort of tax on people who *used to* live in California.
The states should make their own NN laws. That way, those who dont like NN can move to a state without them, just like those that dont like huge taxes can move to a state without it (like californians moving to Nevada).
I only meant to point out that people who work because they have to and not because they want too, will stop going to work. Also, of course there are plumbers that make more the the average software developer, and there are software developers that make more than the average plumper. I worked manufacturing to may for college and I can be certain, nobody was there because they wanted to be.
I love my job (software dev) so I would continue to come into work. But what about plumbers, welders, construction workers and burger flippers? Will they still come into work if they were guaranteed a paycheck anyway?
So employees of a government run organization are not seeing similar pay increases (cost of living, experience, etc) as the free market employees see? WHAT A SURPRISE!!
This guy should have known better then to speak his mind, even *if* he is correct about everything, and still has all those sources. Sure we all have freedom of speech (in the USA) but speaking the truth is still a bad idea if the mob disagrees. When Baghdad was a center for science and learning, it was the stupid mob that started executing people for speaking truth.
I wonder if a VC wanted to give out 20 million dollars, someone would deny the investment because that particular VC acts on data that says he shouldn't invest in women.

The name change is not a big deal honestly. They could have changed the name kept quit about it and almost nobody would have noticed or cared.

Damn trump and his *shuffles deck* low unemployment rates!
If you have uBlock, and still see these, then google a solution to get rid of them with a uBlock filter
This just in: Some people are more valuable than money, which also implies that some aren't.
unruly refugees.. Thats hate speech in Germany. Someone call the police!
Nothing says come to business with us like "do it our way or leave".

I recall a judge saying it is unconstitutional to prevent a person from seeing trumps tweets (which prevents him from blocking the blue checks).
Blame brexit all you want, the fact is that our lords and masters in silicone valley are draining every nation in Europe and Asia, not just the UK.
Stop shitting up the planet.

This is normal under a society that has private property. The only way to stop it is to restrict private property. Good luck.
Why not move to a state like Texas
If too many do that, then texas will become a shithole too.
Glass over the counter in a deli is racist in some counties. But this is going to be OK
Evolution is simply which animal is better at killing the other animals. Looks like humans win.
If you read, its not about discriminating against white men, its about discriminating against conservatives.
