Readit NewsThe days of Airflow and similar seem like a stone age in comparison.
Do you believe the point of government is to protect people from harm? And, do you believe that, for example, making someone addicted to junk food and obese or addicted to their phone for 20+ hours out of their waking time per week are examples of harm?
Not everyone would answer yes to both questions. Some, like the original commenter I was replying to, believe that people should be free to destroy themselves, helped along by the external forces acting upon them.
This kind of shortsighted thinking has created a world of corporations that relentlessly exploit consumers, often with ruinous effects on wellbeing.
It takes about an afternoon to set up NFS + SSH primitives that automatically distribute the computation across clusters of machines. Since it is restartable, it automatically tolerates hardware faults (up to dozens of machines, in practice).
Basically, you get Map Reduce, but for arbitrary data processing DAGs, and it supports any language that works well on Unix-style operating systems.
Mbappe and Giroud act too cocky, always have a face on like they're the stars of a show and the camera's on them, and a lot of the time don't feel like they're playing for the team or as a team.
Argentina on the other hand acts as the sum of a machine's parts. And though Messi is a star, he doesn't act like it on the field, appears grateful for his team, and plays as a member of a team.
Super happy Argentina won, happy to have seen the SK vs Portugal match, and happy to have seen Morocco's games. But also happy to see Mbappe sit and pout even after pulling off a hat-trick in the final game of the world cup lol
The plot twists we watched this time is just not common. It has been a long time since I watched such a good game and it will probably restore my feelings on watching football again. I think other Brazilians can say the same.
Thank you all who made this possible.
Disclaimer: I spent a few days in Argentina in 2011. That country and people have a special place in my heart. I learned to appreciate the sound of romance languages beyond Portuguese and took a respectful photo in Maradona's star. It is an emotional thing to see Messi make it in his last chance and Argentina get another title since 1986. Dieguito is no longer alone and I'm happy to see that in a way that is hard to explain.
And Mbappe still showed up and put in one of the most heroic performances I’ve ever seen in sports, basically carrying the entire team. Really looking forward to watching his career.
>...I simply can’t discern features of the field itself that have been put in place to perpetuate inequities.
If you don't understand how systemic inequity can persist without overt bigotry, then any kind of affirmative action is going to seem counterproductive to you. But bias is self-reinforcing; once it happens for any significant amount of time, it persists even among people with no conscious bias. If you don't actually see a minority doing a job, it becomes slightly more difficult to imagine them doing that job, and that small difference, aggregated across millions of people, adds up to a significant ongoing effect. Add in the economic consequences, and you have a further reinforcement. It's like a traffic jam that persists long after the accident that caused it is cleared. And of course, that assumes that there is no longer any conscious bigotry and clearly there is: there are still organized groups in the US publicly advocating white supremacy, for instance.
