These advocates are paid in proportion to how bad the problem is. They're advocating in this way to ensure their income isn't interrupted by solving the problem they're being paid to fix.

This is pretty great - One feature I really liked from go was channels and the ability for goroutines to communicate with each other. Anyone know there a pep open for a similar idea in the python world?

Did they seriously spoil the ending of breaking bad in the first sentence?

No python support?

I think we're all in agreement that increasing the diversity of viewpoints going into a decision will lead to an overall stronger result.

My Great-aunt didn't make it out of the camps. WW2 isn't a gray area by any honest interpretation.

Hopefully this will soon be added to django core - it's one of the goals as part of Marc Tamlyn's kickstarter to improve postgres support in django.

This was a little harder to find than I expected:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16555779
"These findings demonstrate that female facial appearance holds detectable cues to reproductive health that are considered attractive by other people."
Found via http://asutriplehelix.org/node/99 which also cites some other related papers
EDIT: I really, really enjoy finding cases where something I assumed to be true is questioned on the grounds of scientific correctness. It is always a wonderful opportunity to bring my thinking closer to reality, no matter if my assumptions are true or false.

It's no wonder he has such trouble socializing. When you wear self loathing on your sleeve like that, people will respond accordingly. It's wonderful to want to make a better world, but when everything you say, think, or do needs to be excused and caveated you can't help but internalize that.

The ember docs have improved immensely over the past few months - they're currently significantly better than the angular docs.

I guess I'm in the minority - I really like the class based views for simple crud work. Obviously function based views are a better fit for things that are outside of the simple. but I've had a lot of luck using CBV to simplify crud work.
Interested to try out django vanilla views

A compelling argument for what? I think they have the right to be sexist. I just think it's crazy to try and brand it as something else. Just be honest.

They don't allow men in because they're sexist. There is not some special exemption for some classes of people, there are no pigs that are more equal than others.
They feel the sexism is acceptable given the circumstances. In a world where college enrollment for women is significantly higher than enrollment for men I don't agree, and I think many others don't agree either.

I can't wait for the similar apology from lulu
