Exactly. This may be simple propaganda for the mass media.

You appear to tilting at windmills of your own making. What I find ridiculous. Is your claim of having had a window into the operational decisions of NSA back when they opted for Java.

NSA uses Java. Great to know. Apparently the professionals at the NSA are not swayed by fashion.

Google is by far the scarier big brother company. There is no escpaing Google and as far as I know Facebook has not to date sent teams of roving wireless sniffers in guise of map making.

We can put an end to discusion if we just port Haskell to the JVM. (Edit: i hate my silly cell phone. Spelling!)

Azizam, unless you actually know the players involved in every hop of the loop, do not put your precious life in danger. If you are looking to organize, like a smart bache Terani you should go asymmetric on the the goons. Think sneaker nets, etc. I further suggest that you do not put your trust in superficially maintained hostilities between the west and the flea ridden mullahs. Remember those two brothers handed to Iran from US embassy. In one of those Persian Gulf states. They were hanged if you recall. Stenography, never signaling overt use of crypt, etc. are recommended. Qorbanat.

So Dr. Click is a mortal after all. He still rocks and his work and thoughts are hugely informative and influential. Kudos for the upfront self crit.

Because we are actually in a position to change the world to a significant degree in various areas, most importantly including Civil Rights, money, privacy, knowledge propagation, news, voting systems, new representational models for political input, education, etc. (edited to add to the long list)
Re:Why Clojure doesn't need invokedynamic

Just curious why a single class with a single method taking object array would not solve the issue? Granted the dynamic marshall would be a perf hit. Other than that?

So sad that we are like sheep waiting to see what" Vic" and big G decide in regards to our (practically) our social identity and the nature of the social space as well.
One certainly can have the equivalent. Of real-life anonymity. The issue is institutional will.
Re:Ask HN: Do you believe in the "ancient alien hypothesis"?
on Saturday August 20, 2011 @12:01AM (#2905684)
The essential error is the conflation of degree of advancement and metaphysical nature.
If ancient ones were visited by aliens, then these aliens were liars for they claimed the mantle of angels and spoke of the Throne of The Almighty One God.

Incredibly generalized notion based on questionable assumptions. The OP seems to have identified that distributed state is hard. Not news and not in anyway unique to MOMs.

The only hope for this planet is for its supposedly advanced nations to actually adhere to their foundational practices and shine a path to modern living for the rest of the world.
When these same are governed by a thinly disguised global oligarchy that increasingly looks like a forom of internationalist neo-feudalism and where these same dukes and what not invade and kill abroad in the name of the painfully obviously disregarded principles and stated ideals, we as a are going to continue to face insecurity and injustice as a systemic outcome of our duplicitous selves.
