Well also yes, you can see that clearly in Chinese cities like Zhuhai where they banned the registration and transfer of motorcycles a while ago. A great many of them are now electric.
Sounds like this is a problem with a solution, then. That's good.
FWIW Alan Kay has had a lot of success teaching programming to second graders (using LOGO).
And I've seen 5-year-olds do some surprising things with Scratch.
it's a good idea to improve the ties with them rather than deteriorate them. That is my opinion about policy. That it's in the west's interest. I also think they're open for chances for improvement , at least as long as Putin is there.
Yes.
But look at this thread. It's almost unanimous against Russia.
It's not anti-Russia, it's anti-Trump. Russia is just the latest proxy for the true target of their wrath, which is the orange guy. They don't actually care about Russia at all.
Americans often use metric when it's more convenient (I almost always use milli-liters instead of ounces, because it's printed on all our bottles). We mostly use imperial measurements for the same reason people still use Windows......because the momentum of the past makes it a pain to change.
And don't pretend that the rest of the world is on metric. In UK they still use stones to weigh themselves, in Central America some countries still use gallons, and in Japan they measure area with tatami mats (and I've seen with my own eyes construction workers use other traditional units). Australia uses hands for some purposes, and Chinese speaking countries use traditional measurements.
Why? Why does everyone still use traditional measurements even when the 'official' measurements are metric? Inertia. There's no real compelling reason to change.
It does bring up an interesting point, though. The attacks on Ukraine do have strong evidence linking them to Russia, if not the Russian government.
At the same time, the US government's report on Russian 'hacking the election' relied heavily on the fact that 'the attacks were similar to how Russia normally operates cyberattacks." And yet, the Ukrainian attacks are quite different than the ones on the DNC.
For various reasons a relatively small but vocal group of people feel threatened and upset by the idea of a woman being instrumental in the early development of computers.
That's similar to why you want to talk about her instead of, say, Konrad Zuse. It's not based on the relative size of the contribution to computing.
The work challenges widespread claims that Lovelace's mathematical abilities were more "poetical" than practical, or indeed that her knowledge was so limited that Babbage himself was likely to have been the author of the paper that bears her name. The authors pinpoint Lovelace's keen eye for detail, fascination with big questions, and flair for deep insights,
If you keep looking at the big picture, and have a flair for deep insights, soon you'll discover eye gone values and be as impressive as Malcolm Gladwell.
Wolfram did an analysis of her situation, and suggests that her capability was like that of a competent graduate student, ready to do some good work (and be a reliable manager for Babbage, who lacked self-management skills) if life (and death) hadn't intervened.
The paper talks about "exploding myths" but it doesn't really, Lovlace is already extremely well revered by many, and the people who claim she is overrated are in the minority.
Problem is that many many Javascript libraries now use callbacks as a normal method of operation, often when it's not necessary. The result is now you get the "callback of death" with many nested layers of callbacks. It is ugly but worse, hard to read. Here is an example and some solutions.
Ruby on Rails doesn't fit in as well with the new Javascript ecosystem. Compared to Node, it seems difficult to use.
That doesn't mean it will go away: it will probably adapt to the new Javascript frontend styles, and it was always complex next to PHP. As a language, Ruby is sweet with its DSL and it's harder to make type errors like you can in Python. I'll be honest, I'm not sure why Python is more popular.
This post is more in-depth. Basically, any time a report doesn't have error margins (or similar), you are missing the whole story. It's not about belief or disbelief.

What steak?
Is there a (practical) way to make motorcycles less polluting?
Take away Trump and the Russia scare won't go away, and vice versa.
The Russia scare won't go away as long as it's perceived to be effective in winning votes.
Copyright and online music. That's often on Slashdot.
The majority of minimum wage earners are trying to support dependents, often on their own.
Woah, huge citation needed on that one.

Also most computer users don't give a shit about philosophy[1]
May those people remain far away from us.
Are you sure? Devuan seems to have Gnome, so it must be working without systemd.
The problem is that these are not "entry positions". They are the only jobs available for people trying to support a family.
I'll bet you even odds that no one working at Seattle in a Starbucks is trying to support a family.

Environmentalists also oppose the construction of reservoirs.

And callback after callback is while you try to reinvent threading
That's not a problem anymore since javascript promises.
using one of the shittiest languages known to man outside Visual Basic
You don't think VB is better than Javascript? Really? Why not?

Instead of being a VC, they should have run for president. Then they wouldn't have these problems.
Do you have a favorite quote from that book that might be relevant here? It sounds interesting.
> illegal and unethical business techniques made it the most popular OS around I call that smart
If you approve unethical business techniques I disapprove you.
Let's be honest, it's not like gchat was that great anyway.
You don't need to say "price point," you can just say "price." It means the same.
