Comment Re:Who hates OOP? (Score 4, Interesting) 386

A lot of smart people talk about the flaws of OOP: https://www.yegor256.com/2016/...

This article does a really good job of breaking down all the broken promises of OOP: https://medium.com/@cscalfani/...

It's a shame a lot of the open source community isn't familiar with what's going on in the Swift world. Protocol oriented programming is a huge game changer. But as with every tool, I think you still have to pick the best tool for the job. You'll never find the "one tool to rule them all".

VPN. Should be easier to setup though.

If they know where it is. Smart burglars hide their faces anyway.

Yes there is racism in this world. But banning words is not going to solve that. At all. It literally has no effect on actual racism. People feel bad about those words because they are discriminated, not the other way around.

Racism is about opinions of other people. About people being afraid. About how people deal with power or lack of it. About why people show inappropriate behavior and deal with it. It is about culture. And in the country where people give the least f*** about others, especially the poor, that is where the problem is the biggest.

Until the dual-party system is changed in the US, racism will stay as strong as it is. Because it is a result of fear, uncertainty, doubt and a lack of appreciation of different minded / cultured / looking people. Unfortunately, the country that markets itself as the strongest country, is very weak in this aspect.

Now the disclaimer: There are worse places on the world and Europe is rather lacking in providing actual shelter for people running from war. Being discriminated is not fun (I witnessed it once), having to fight for your live is worse.
