"Do you have any opinions that you would be reluctant to express in front of a group of your peers?
If the answer is no, you might want to stop and think about that. If everything you believe is something you're supposed to believe, could that possibly be a coincidence? Odds are it isn't. Odds are you just think whatever you're told."
Actually, it looks almost exactly the same; you just add a cdef int or long to the fibonacci for example. And using the Python scientific stack (which would likely give you all the speedups you will ever need) _is_ Python and looks like Python.
I did not know that white men controlled all firms. Are there even any statistics on tech companies owned by non-whites being more open to "non-gender conforming" people?
I really liked some of the old-school command line stuff like reverse history search and Snoopy swearing (!$). However, I still prefer Fish to Bash and Zsh, even though those two things are not included. It gets the really important stuff just right and makes the rest configurable.
Btw, is it just my imagination or is using Ctrl-c with Fish much faster?
"It is easier to develop a phobia about snakes than electricity or carbon monoxide, probably because we have built in neurological mechanism that confer that propensity.
Likely most animals have a similar propensity to develop a fear of fire: or it might come automatically. If there was such a fear-of-fire mechanism, we have lost it: and dogs have as well. If this is correct, one could learn about this hypothetical mechanism by comparing dogs and wolves."
