Libertarians and conservatives, are we pretending otherwise?

"At least" is right; he is doing the very least he can. If they are working for the wealthiest man on the planet he could afford to pay them a decent wage.

Nerd might be chic in some circles now but is still widely derided by politicians seeking to show themselves as men of the people.
While Asian countries proudly and unabashedly pursue technological advancement and innovation western policitians are still pretending that our economy is dependent entirely on guys mining coal with a pickaxe.
You can see the Western fall of technology not only in AI but in renewables as well.

No, Epic is at fault for having a basic bug that is incredibly easy to exploit.
At what point did people who browse a site called "Hacker News" start believing in Security through Obscurity?
noicebrewery | 7 years ago | on: Why is a Java guy so excited about Node.js and JavaScript?
I don't really care what this guys credentials are; he claims npm and yarn are better than maven and gradle but doesn't bother explaining why (and it's evident he hasn't used gradle)
Nor has he moved beyond a Java 6 mindset considering the things he complains about in terms of modularity, verbosity and even strict type checking.
The fact that he thinks that the IDE race is between Eclipse and Netbeans is telling.
As far as boilerplate and unneeded code goes, he is correct. Spring, Hibernate and Spring Boot removes code, and results in some arcane problems that you shouldn't need to learn about. Now, let's discuss the React ecosystem: explain to me the purity of intent behind an application that requires: - action classes/files - reducer classes/files - possibly route classes/files - a "store" - a component to set a variable, complete with the half dozen packages required to enable this behaviour. Not everyone has to do this, but when creating a React application with the kind of scope that a Java application often requires, this is an inevitably, and a LOT of work for a supposedly simple task. If there is an error, you are similarly going through a stack trace of weird abstract classes, except they are in a bundle file which is equally impossible to parse.

Wondering why this guy put corners in a civ game to begin with.
/r/civbattleroyale is generally a lot more interesting given a lot of civs are selected specifically to try to play to their terrain strengths.

JSON has its strengths and weaknesses, and while Java doesn't have first class support for it the Jackson libraries are excellent!

I remember when people were whining about this with Windows 7 when it was doing the same thing.
noicebrewery | 7 years ago | on: Java is too old, What should you learn in 2018?
This article pretends that libraries such as Spring, Lombok, Guava and maven/gradle don't exist. It would be like saying Javascript is useless because the features that Angular/React/Vue provide aren't provided in the core syntax.
There are good reasons to move into something like Kotlin but the author has barely touched on any of them. "Java is old" also makes the author sound like they ditch programming languages that aren't currently trending on Twitter or something.

So they were doing that anyway.
