I think they are saying most attempts at diversity come from middle aged white guys and just end up being poorly done and so detract from the game/story.
Similar to how 00's electronic companies just painted it pink to appeal to women or why South Park added Token.
So arguing for more diversity within the companies themselves
I wouldn't get massively excited.
Python is a scripting language, its shines when you want to write a stand alone file which takes an input and performs a task. Scripting languages are great to learn as a first language and so python is wonderful for non developers.
The issue you hit is the build management solutions for Python are kind of broken and these help support and encourage good development practice so a lot of Python projects end up a collection of scripts rather than a mature project. You can have good projects but...
In raw benchmarks Java has 90% of the performance of C/C++, but in reality Java is more performant because developers get bogged down in memory management on C/C++ and they get more time to optomise in Java as a result. I'm not sure where Rust will come out to be honest.
Python benchmarks at 50% the performance of Java, in reality I've found code ends up slightly worse because Python is procedural, library support and streaming is poorly supported.
Take library support, Spring really rose to prominese because of 'hibernate' which was a way to abstract talking to different databases through objects, you could switch from PostgreSQL to Oracle through config. Spring data has dumbed this down so I define a plain old Java object and Spring will generate everything I need.
Python expects you to hand craft SQL statements and every database extends SQL slightly differently, so i need to write SQL for every operation and manage/own it. So the win in being able to quickly read/write to a database (since you don't have to learn anything about Spring) is quickly ruined because of the all the boilerplate and error handling you now have to write.
Every programming languages has communities built around them.
Its becoming clear Rust solves a lot of C/C++ type problems and the embedded communities are definitely shifting over.
Apache is the primary community for Java, a quick look at their project list shows it's entirely web servers, data engineering and clustered projects for distributed computing.
Personally if you asked me to solve this problem I would use Spring Boot with various Spring libraries for talking to the caddy, user control, etc... Looking at the project, its exactly what they have done
Every big UK company I have worked for doesn't own its building. They will typically agree to rent a building for 5-20 years at a fixed rate (longer times if its being purpose built for them) .
So I would expect this is paying out the rest of the rental agreements for a building to escape the building lease.
It is to do with financial reporting and the way asset and operational costs are reported.
I believe this post would be better if it was rewritten in Rust it would allow more efficent. memory usage compared to; the dynamically typed English language which doesn't have the borrower checker. while allows you to detect when resources are no longer used unlike English's poorly performing 'grammar checking' tools
But seriously there has to be content to engage with and people who respond to the content. I've noticed this community has someone posting really high quality updates but the community appears to be that person.
Posting blogs, or asking questions, etc.. would be a good way to engage.
If you click the link and follow it through 3 redirects you'll get to Stamets post.
Basically risa is listed as having "no rules" but the community admin is/was trying to moderate things to keep it "fun".
Stamets and others were upset at the contradiction and through there own posts generated alot of noise to get it resolved the startrek.website admin got sick of the drama.
To be honest the site admin should require mods to accurately explain their actions "Doesn't inspire Jahamora" isn't a great reason and reading stamets examples I think you could build rules fairly easily.
But I won't be going to Ten Forward, reading the post was exhausting.
Immutable distributions won't solve the problem.
You have 3 types of testing unit (descrete part of code), integration (how a software piece works with others) and system testing (e.g. the software running in its environment). Modern software development has build chains to simplify testing all 3 levels.
Debian's change freeze effectively puts a known state of software through system testing. The downside its effecitvely 'free play' testing of the software so it requires a big pool of users and a lot of time to be effective. This means software in debian can use releases up to 3 years old.
Something like Fedora relies on the test packs built into the open source software, the issue here is testing in open source world is really variable in quality. So somethinng like Fedora can pull down broken code that passes its tests and compiles.
The immutable concept is about testing a core set of utilities so you can run the containers of software on top. You haven't stopped the code in the containers being released with bugs or breaking changes you've just given yourself a means to back out of it. It's a band aid to the actual problem.
The solution is to look at core parts of the software stack and look to improve the test infrastructure, phoronix manages to run the latest Kernel's on various types of hardware for benchmarking, why hasn't the Linux foundation set up a computing hall to compile and run system level testing for staged changes?
Similarly website's are largely developed with all 3 levels of testing, using things like Jest/Mocha/etc.. for Unit/Integration testing and Robots/Cypress/Selenium/Storybook/etc.. for system testing. While GTK and KDE apps all have unit/integration tests where are the system level test frameworks?
All this is kinda boring while 'containers!' is exciting new technology
You seem to be intentionally missing the point, but to reiterate..
You shower before entering a pool to wash the dirt from your body off (your cleaning yourself).
The more of your body covered the less effective that shower is.
Ideally everyone would be naked in the shower, but there are probably outfits which increasingly render the shower less and less effective (e.g. speedos are better than shorts, etc .).
It would not surprise me if a Burkina covered so much that the cleaning shower is rendered pointless
The shower before a pool is to ensure people aren't entering the pool coated in dirt (e.g. sweat, hair, dead skin, etc..).
The chemicals in a pool are designed to bind to that dirt and kill any bacteria introduced.
There is a limit to the chemicals you can add to a pool (before it hurts humans) and once the amount has activated you need to drain the pool and refill it.
Swimming pools hold crazy amounts of water which is also really expensive to heat up, so pools want to do that as little as possible.
Clothing interfers with cleaning your body, so people entering near fully clothed (e.g. like a Burkina) will likely introduce more dirt into the pool.
That translates into increased costs for swimming pools or pools which maintain the old schedule and just operate unsafely.
This is all based on owning a hot tub and learning how to maintain it.
Hopefully this also explains why it doesn't matter people enter the sea fully clothed
Uhh how?
The rate of new features/changes is far higher, uptime went through a bumpy transition but is back to normal. From an engineering perspective it supports my point.
Twitters issues are Elon scaring away advertisers/annoying governments/content creators through his hard line on free speech allowing an explosion in hate speech.
MBin is a fork by a group who tried to push into KBin but couldn't. There seems to be at least 4 active committers and stuff gets merged.
You will see a number of the KBin instances moved over https://fedidb.org/software/mbin
You are far worse than the people you are claiming to act against.
Lots of people can feel something is a problem and struggle to articulate it. So you have to take people on a case by case basis.
OP talks about how they feel diverse characters are shoe horned in or badly written. Ask them to provide an example.
When they can't, then call them out. They are a bigot and deserve scorn.
If they can provide an example, help them understand the issue and use appropriate language.
Calling someone out who genuinely feels there is a problem doesn't stop them feeling there is a problem. These people will go looking for some who acknowledges their feelings.
Which is how you make a bigot
