ok, that one is beyond my ability lol

What SHOULD people be interested in?

Indeed, it's not like you can't read assembly (or machine code).

Ruby on Rails is the best dynamically typed language available for Webdev. Python has more developers, so if you build on RoR, you might need to train some people. If you want a statically typed language for webdev (usually better on very large projects), C# as a language is great, but the ecosystem around Java is better.

Rust is useful when you have to work with incompetent programmers, which is most of them these days, especially those who write kernel drivers. If you encapsulate the driver accesses in functions or classes, then it's not that big of a deal. Encapsulation of some type is important though, you don't want to spread GPIO accesses throughout your code, that's sloppy redundant and repetitive.

I really wonder what they think they are hiding.

Let's be honest, there's not much you could do architecturally to make Los Angeles uglier. Even a small nuke attack (tragedy though it is) would arguably add interest.

No, I'm saying the second line in my hosts file is:

It means the LA critic establishment hates the museum, that's why they write like that. Critics in LA form a weird kind of hierarchical establishment, and they have some power because they can get quoted in news articles.

"Good at getting quoted" is an orthogonal skill to "being a good judge of art," and it's apparent that Lucas did not appropriately kowtow to the establishment in the way necessary to get promoted. The critics can't outright say it's bad, because if it's popular, then people won't trust them.

The building actually looks really cool.

It was originally intended to look like this, but I think the final design is an improvement.

It's positioning itself as a display of art that tells a story, frequently in a single frame. I would give Maximilliano a break if he'd written his article on September 1, but he wrote it on September 3. That's on him.

China was never communism (it was socialist, moving towards communism but fully aware they hadn't arrived yet, just like Russia).

China does have a dictator. He's been killing his rivals.

In China, anyone can consult with a modern barefoot doctor if they need to, but they can't get more than basic healthcare without money, including money to bribe the hospital for an appointment. There is constantly crowdfunding to help people see a doctor.

The mod points go to the average user. If you aren't getting mod points, adjust your posting/page load frequency until you are an average user, right in the middle of the deck.

American schools also teach map projections before age 10 (at least, they used to). I'm not sure where the uproar is coming from.

Interesting way of phrasing it.

Google maps uses Mercator, though.
