I can see REST way better than Struts era style of backend services when writing complex web apps.

Does anyone find it surprising that OOP is not even well-defined? Alan Kay says that Messaging an important part of it but based on comments here, there is no consensus.

Here's one talk about 'message' in Ruby:

But to me, this simply looks like Functional Programming done in an OOP mess.

Likely those who use GPL and other copy-left licenses.

> The only real difference is Facebook doesn’t offer an internet service, and doesn’t charge a subscription fee

They've partnered with Telco's. At least in my country, you get Facebook for free in "Free Mode". Then there's various promos to get you a few megabytes for Facebook.

> Bitcoin is the last exciting open standard I can remember that has done well and maybe has a future.

And that future we call Ethereum.

Back when I was playing this awesome game. I tried to create a tool that webscrape this wiki (on the client side), so you have faster (I had a not-so-good internet) access. The game is so complicated that you need wiki almost all the time.

But then most of community saying, the site needs to make money from ads so it can maintain it, etc etc. I should've replied back - but not this much ads. And they use FOSS software anyway.

Personally, I see this "MediaWiki" logo on this wiki full of ads:

Then somehow, my brain connects this to Wikimedia and thinks it's for-profit?

Probably the same person who made decisions for Java branding back in Sun Micro days.

Salary is never reasonable. Employment is essentially slavery which is never reasonable, at least with the surplus we have at this age.

You have to look at it from a time when C++ was the mainstream for large scale projects. Java is certainly a god-sent gift to software salaryman all over the world.

That time when my boss started using "implicit" on everything. We were even using a new "Functional Relational Mapping" framework from Lightbend/Typesafe called Slick which was a mess.

The comparison on GPL vs BSD is henious. The only disadvantage is that you lose the opportunity to be selfish.

I think it's this one:

> the fact that in Iran they've ignored US laws

Why would they? It's Iran. Not anymore the song "We're all living in Amerika" is true.

pro tip: be careful in using force push. In the past there's a version of git where it defaults to force all your local branches into the remote copy. When I did use force push, it pushed everything including my outdated local copy of PROD. Fortunately we were able to fix this before somebody else ran a git pull.

the new versions I believe are configured safer now afaik.

Google should've definitely paid Sun for licensing.

> would need to be a major party initiative - which would be opposed by the opposite party, watered down during negotiations, and subjected to compromise by the political process.

The current parties? Never. They would simply talk about the wall or destroying another country. Or saction this and that.

In the last 6 weeks, the Yellow Vest Movement has achieved so much already. The power is in the hands of the people, if only they realize it. The good news is that this movement is spreading everywhere.

Yet it is the Billionaires that keep the inequality in place, they keep the minimum wage static, raise prices, destroy quality of life for the majority by removing social funding.

Publicly funded projects work, CERN, NASA, the Internet, Telco Technology, all funded by taxpayers. It's proven we don't need these Billionaires. Their talent is welcome but not worth the lives of everyone else. There is plenty of great individuals that are not as greedy as your clients.

> Those entrepreneurs, like Rockefeller, Carnegie, Morgan, Bezos, Page, Zuckerberg, build very powerful monopolies and amass billions.

And what do they (or their descendants) do now? It is also worth noting that the Federal Reserve (the biggest scam of all) which keeps printing money out of thin air at will was the idea of a group that included Morgan (or Rockefeller).

There's a talk from Rich Hickey about this.

Everyone is underpayed. The work you are doing are mostly going to the pockets who do nothing. Bitter truth.

Free Market! Free market anyone!?

> since Warcraft 3 was the origin of MOBAs to begin with.

Incorrect. It was with Starcraft 1, a custom map called Aeon of Strife (AoS).

If you want something like that, get Brave. It's Chromium-based that has privacy and ad-blocking built-in.

And they call it "Quantitative Easing" wtf. Time to look past Capitalism and our Modern Feudal Lords.

That's because capitalist will keep draining everything, whether it's deregulation, cutting budgets or "quantitative easing".

We are at an age where there's so much food and shelter surplus that we shoudn't waste timing writing code for a program that tries to sell crap to people.

Life can be so much better. We just have to follow what the French are doing right now. Upgrade the common sense of what should be basic human rights.

And how many are homeless and living in bad condition?

Having a job under Capitalism is a Trap.

Just make sure to break out of the jail.
