Comment Re:So much infrastructure needed (Score 1) 181

Absolutely agree with you. It's a behavior just like charging your Smart Phone by night. Users just need it full charged every morning, forget that it is battery driven and put it on charge before going to bed. Or when getting to the driveway if it's a EV. Charging is a problem only for oil cars because you need to go to a gas station. Think if we start with full EV society. Car drivers would not agree it's better to stop your riding and fill you tank or gaz because it was not already full every morning. We are so customize/conditioned to stop at gaz station that we don't notify the time that we expense in the middle of a ride.

I can't blame organizations from moving away from Linux today. Modern Linux distros are nothing like typical Linux distros were a decade ago. Stability and sensible change have been thrown out in favor of hipster-oriented fads involving radical and disruptive change without much, if any, benefit.

Shall we talk about Windows 8 ? How is it better ? The "Linux City of Munich Distribution" can be as stable as they want to be.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but Python is inherently strongly typed. What it is not is "statically typed". I think there is a general confusion in this thread between strong vs weak typing, and dynamic vs static typing.

Are trying to define something like "strong typing" finding your bug before run and "dynamic typing" annoyed you or your client doing something not is your uses cases at runtime are good solution because the word "typed" (before-codingtime-after)?

You can be as typed as you can but if value typed error occurs only at runtime how comes its more typed according to the discussion?

If you find the type at runtime, the language is not typed.

This has some pretty negative implications in particularly homophobic regions.

Can't agree if you ask to remove these advancements in AI. Its old civilisation stupidity (they didn't know then) here.

Well, in Toronto we suddenly discover an abnormally high rate of abortions of girls to discover that some recent canadians-Indian parents not very accurate with our occidental contemporary moral used the detection of gender by ultrasound to select the sex of the child.

So? We stop AI and hide ultrasound scans results because of morons people and countries?

It is the same thing. But at the level of sex (ADN) instead of behaviors (Recreational).

Iceland, a place where in 871 CE the first Norsemen landed to find no trees, and the Arctic fox as the only animal.

Hard to disagree more on that sentence than I am. (I agree with the point you are trying to make.)

1. In 871 it was Medieval Warm Period (950 to 1250), same for Greenland with green and Vinland with natural grapes. North Atlantic shore and Europe was pretty hot.

2. There was trees in Iceland but Viking (Norse) communities cut them all in the first 100 years. About same known effect as Easter Island because of insularity. (Icelanders are not happy of this part of there story and let us admit that we still do same, but Earth is longer to deplete.) Juste add that there is not enough light to grow back forest faster than terribly slow : its 60 north.

3. Ocean around was super full of resources : fat and calories that feed part of Europe starting that period. Even later, after 1534, Jacques Cartier said that you can walk on the back of the cod fish from Europe to Terre-Neuve.
