I agree that some conduct guidelines are justified, but should be minimal. The feeling against them is due to overreach, where they stray away from codifying generally acceptable behaviour and move into territory that the general population would find incomprehensible, such as not being able to say that someone with the opposite opinion is wrong.
> NumFOCUS found I violated their Code of Conduct (CoC) at JupyterCon because my talk was not “kind”, because I said Joel Grus was “wrong” regarding his opinion that Jupyter Notebook is not a good software development environment
Thanks for the list, she doesn’t recognise any of the sites listed there. Also she has burner/spam email addresses she uses for smaller/less reputable sites, this is the main email address so it must have come from a big, reputable site.
I don’t, they can say anything posing as anyone and the general public will believe it, this is a genuine hazard. Seriously, if I were them I’d pull the plug until this is fixed.
Professionally I haven’t been very involved in deployment, but my experience deploying personal projects to, and configuring, Linux servers has taught me that the process is confusing, poorly documented and difficult. Don’t get me wrong, it’s doable and I’ve done it (likely poorly), but after a day of stitching together steps from blogs and frequent back-tracking and starting from scratch, you have to wonder if there isn’t a more user-friendly way.
I’d hope that windows server offers this, though I don’t know that it does, as I haven’t much experience with it. As windows is considerably more GUI centric than Linux that could be a big plus for me personally. I’d certainly check it out, at least to compare the experience to Linux.
But currently, given that windows servers are not free, Linux wins hands down.
> And in terms of replicating, these are derived from stem cells.
All of everyone’s cells are derived from stem cells. The issue is still how prone to uncontrolled proliferation they are, not so much having a population of a particular cell type in the wrong place.
The main benefit is handling binding and state, and allowing you to easily break your application into a component hierarchy of reusable components. It also has an ecosystem that will let you find packages for most anything you want to do, probably in five different ways.
Exactly, punish the engineer for using mildly unflattering language, never mind that he was right and that hundreds of people have subsequently died. Mind boggling response, and as you have said indicative of the cultural issues that caused the crashes in the first place.
Would these be expected to change by country? I’m getting different results from grc for Facebook, Wikipedia and others in the UK, but the results are consistent between different connections. Results match for grc and paypal.
It’s just training an image labelling AI on a different, sensationalist dataset. It looks designed for media attention and nothing else. What value is there in this?
I’ve seen this before and I really have to wonder what the point is other than sensationalism. An image labelling AI will label images according to its training data. Yes, of course it will. This isn’t a psychopath AI and it doesn’t shed any light on anything, what’s the point?
The fastest way isn’t to eliminate the other possibilities, it’s to find a unique test for a that can’t be met by any of the others. Bear in mind that your list of alternative causes may be very long and each require large amounts of work to eliminate.
I too find it strange that multiple landers have been sent to mars since Viking, ostensibly looking for evidence of present or past life, and have yet have carried no tests for it. I find the best way to find something is to look for it.
> Claims like Paul's are just the intellectual equivalent of chest puffing. Don't get roped into the stupidity. This kind of attitude causes divisions and turns you into a prideful douche. It's indicative most of all that the author takes an extreme pride in whatever he takes to be his "intellect." Goliaths' waiting for their Davids.
Do you not see yourself in this paragraph?
Anyway, I’m sure French literature is a noble pursuit.
Yes, I equate intelligence with reasoning. For me, and realistically most everyone else, intelligence is the ability to reason, formulate solutions to problems and to quickly grasp concepts.
There are a host of other skills that are worthwhile and desirable and whatever else, but why pretend that they are the same thing as intelligence?
I’m not sure I understand the relevance of your skeptics comment.
Edit: you added this since I wrote my reply:
> In fact one of the best qualities you can have as a scientist is to follow mundane proceedures without questioning a thing and regardless of the changing circumstances.
I’m afraid you now just sound like you have a chip on your shoulder.
We can pretend to be outraged by it but he’s very likely right. We’ve arrived at a point where it’s unacceptable to say that people have different levels of ability or that some professions require more than others.
(And this comment didn’t go straight to the bottom this time, that’s a nice change.)
It’s the most currently socially acceptable way of agreeing with the argument. Which is in itself a wonderful way of highlighting what you can and cannot say, not to mention the punishments doled out for doing so.
Your characterisation of the Chinese public does not make it seem more sympathetic, quite the reverse: it makes them seem petty and spiteful, lashing out at a population which is better educated and more prosperous than them, one unwilling to suffer under the yoke of the CCP as the majority have been indoctrinated to do.
Why not let Hong Kong be independent? What moral claim does mainland China have to the territory over the people who live there? If China is so superior and resents Hong Kong then they are better off without it.
