Can you post link to best irc channels

Are you saying literally or figuratively. You mean it is possible to implement a working python3 client in one hour ? I would love to see someone do a live stream .

Comparing RMS to Jobs and Ballmer is a joke. RMS is way more capable and he devoted his personal life for the sake of good. Jobs and Ballmer are just business people.

This does not answer op question on why Rust was dropped ?

If they are tracking where is the news about Jullian Assange.

RMS was always right especially with regards to privacy.

Just curious. Are you financially well off ?

Are you very confident in your skill that you have no worry of being unemployed at all ?

My personal opinion is that people who are not gifted but work very hard and have an average IQ can not take risks like leaving a tenure job unless they are free of financial responsibilities.

What are you thoughts ?

By that argument, w all are going to be dide someday does it matter we nuke the planet. The point is "Resistence is not futile".

Is this the response you are referring to Sam Altman being on record https://openai.com/blog/openai-supporters/ ?

When the govt punishes people if they speak against it how do you know what the realpublic opinion is ?

Can't stress enough. Never over drink at party. Keep it to single glass.

Hello down voter care to reason. My question is genuine. I think the author has some point, but just that i could not get it. May be i should have asked to describe more which would have clarified my intent properly.

> You would not believe how much smoother everything at work is when you learn to recognize early the signs that you're holding on to a bad opinion, or that you're headed towards a fuckup, and just saying it out loud.

Doesn't this make you feel good but piss of the other person even though they may be wrong? On the other hand it never wears off if you don't let it out, but the problem is there are lot more peoples opinions to consider other than the person you are dealing with. Its lose-lose situation.

It already exists https://www.torproject.org .

In the meanwhile consider using Tor https://www.torproject.org . It has different transports transport plugins available if that will make the traffic look like regular traffic and not Tor traffic.

I am currently using https://github.com/burtonator/polar-bookshelf and its one of the amazing software i use daily.

Not exaggerating. IE is a one time downloade'r for firefox

very cool

Its refreshing to see the sentiment among HN crowd has shifted and embracing RMS. Few years ago the comment section was dismissing RMS outright as not being practical.

> If anyone is capable, they are.

True. Even the audience for this will be devs which is right fit to make a decentralized community.

I think the point is even if you don't work for google you can afford the piano.

RMS has been warning this for a long time https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/right-to-read.en.html

How did you even come up with this idea ?

This happens when the podcast is paused and then next day when rewinded 10 secs and played back, exactly the location flashes in memory,really weird.

For people wondering SRS means spaced repetition software

>I think 'who holds the power?' is a good lens to try to judge this through.

Eventually some one with bad intentions will end in power even if started with a pretty good guy(Example: US president start and end). Its better to think of the worst and place the checks at the earliest (like the constitution)

Good Analysis. What is the optional thing a 2x programmer can do now to stop if possible or atleaset delay such a totalitarian regime to happen ?

Exactly. I really think Philosophy is like religious gurus confusing the listeners with confidence and as though only they can understand but not put in clear words.

I am quite competent software engineer and good at math too. But never really understand what Philosophy meant and what does it tries to study. To me sometimes it sounds like too much of a fake stuff like religion. Any resources or books that you can point to get a clear understanding of what philosophy really tries to study about ?

> I think a lot of people dislike that idea because religion, unlike science, doesn't offer us any certainty.

Nope. The real problem is it is being misused by evil people always in every culture and moreover no one can question to correct it because based on belief with no evidence.
