Item_Boring already clarified what I meant better than I could ever express it.

But yeah basically "Kleidermacher" was historically a genderless term for quite a long time (potentially always) and was then gendered again, by people who seemingly misunderstood the generic masculinum. The people who made this worse misunderstood that sexus and genus are two different things.

As I explained before, this is quite ironic given that the -in suffix is now being said to be not inclusive.

Actually "Kleidermacher" is a genderless word in German. Source: I'm German. :D

But historically this has been a complicated topic. Basically about a hundred years ago the genus and sexus of words started to get separated. Thanks to that you can say "Katze" to both male and female cats. Historically you had to say "Kater" to a male cat.

But of course there were people in the 90s (it started earlier than that) who considered the generic masculinum uninclusive for women, since why is the male genus allowed to be the generic form of the language? Everything had to be gendered explicitly again! Awesome! /s Instead of rolling back the split of genus and sexus of the past decades, they instead opted for just sticking the already existing, but less popular -in suffix to everything and anything. A generic word like "Student" now had it's proper sexus again as "Student und Studentin".

But as you might already know that's uninclusive for nonbinary people and thus we're now at a point where we say "Studierende" or "Studentx" or "Student:in" instead, which linguistically really doesn’t make much sense at all anymore. Awesome! /s

One step forward, two steps backwards. But again, as explained above, the "Kleidermacher" can be of any genus, because...

Genus and sexus are two different things in German.

Hmm... Sometimes even I say "maybe women just prefer [...]", but actually mean exactly that, what you said: There are social trends and in this case there is a social trend specific to women wrongly being taught that they are not as good as men in STEM fields. So much in fact (here in Germany) that it's kind of unsettling, when they tell you "haha I'm just not good in math haha" and you can't even, because it's so effing wrong.

I believe many (young) people will tell you that women are "just" like that, but actually mean "they are just taught to think so", because in their male position there is no need to choose are careful wording. I'm also pretty sure that, while the society at large is fault for this herd thinking about this, the parents play the biggest role in where the daughter places herself in the world.

I'm not really sure how to interpret your comment, since it is possible to contribute to all of those and they are de facto loved by the community…

Somehow it seems that currently everything happening in the USA is "Dead on Arrival" - including Swift.

This time due to shipping an utterly broken compiler to an unfinished language, without being able to contribute to it. Because if we could contribute to it, Swift might still be soon something that people love to use. But I somehow really don't believe that this will ever truly happen.

Using a closure:

  function foo(s) {
    function generator(i) {
      return function () {
        return i;
      };
    }

    var r = new Array(s);
    
    for (var i = 0; i < s; i++) {
      r[i] = generator(i);
    }
    
    return r;
  }

  console.log(foo(1000)[42]());

Using Function.prototype.bind():

  function foo(s) {
    function generator(i) {
      return i;
    }

    var r = new Array(s);
    
    for (var i = 0; i < s; i++) {
      r[i] = generator.bind(window, i);
    }
    
    return r;
  }

  console.log(foo(1000)[42]());

IMHO currently the worst bugs are in discoveryd, which replaces mDNSResponder for Bonjour.

If you remove a service on OSX 10.10 it's removal will be broadcast. But it doesn't stop there. No... Most of the time the service will be published again after that and after a second or so it will be finally removed. How the hell did this pass even the most basic QA checks?!

I'm not a believer, like many others (especially in europe).

So... It would be nice to see her face harsh consequences on this side too. I'm pretty sure that we both can agree on that one.

Sssh! Don't disturb their precious dreams. The patriarchy will win if you do!

"crc-mark-adler-hw" uses SSE4.2 just like your "crc-sse42". The latter one is just very poorly written, since it only uses _mm_crc32_u8() once per iteration (instead of 3 times).

Well… The difference is the implied meaning of burning a book.

Making a movie about the assassination of the NK leader doesn't imply hate. I'm pretty sure making the movie wasn't about the hate against NK per se, but rather a comedy about the situation in an oppressed country.

If you burn a koran/bible I'm pretty sure we all know what that means: You hate the religion and wan't it to die.

As you can see the difference is that the first one falls under free- and the other under hate-speech.

Now if you ask me, it's still wrong to hate against those who burn "holy books" or whatever. In my opinion hate speech is integral to having free spech, even if it should be watched carefully (I really don't wan't a third reich here in germany) - something that has been lost in the past couple years. But it's important to differenciate between both.

It's not redundant. You wrote an awesome browser and many people, including me, a very eager to get their hands on the new version. Keep up with you awesome work! It's not just that competition like this is important, but this project is also something that you can show around and impress people with it (at e.g. job interviews).
