Good point. Does the world champion also have to play through the rounds up to the final match? That could help, having to go through the round of 8/16, so the championship match doesn't end up being the best vs someone who was the best a while ago. Then it'd always be a fun match between the two top. Not to mention drawing to keep your title doesn't seem fun

Yeah I started making a chrome app for my own use and it's starting to get to a point where if I don't work on it for a while, I spend a bit too much time making sure I'm not creating bugs interacting with old code

Also, Chrome apps seem to be a great use for this even if no other browsers embed a dart VM (if it gets to that). I'm just not seeing why this is so bad

It's 2 weeks from a year, hasn't that been about the same as the release cycle for most flagship smartphones?

Also, site's down I think, but apparently there's a new camera, haven't heard of much else

yeah, of course, sorry I just said calculus because it was the first math class that came to mind. You're right, the classes are better, saying they are the same was wrong, but the point me and the parent comment were making is just that the main benefit of paying is the environment more so than the course curriculum

This looks great! I'm really trying to use it more, though last time it did feel heavier than sublime. I'm glad that was addressed. Can anyone point me to a good tutorial/example regarding clojure and clojurescript projects in lighttable for windows and mac?

I think it's just alphabetical, so no particular path through the languages that he saw as easier/harder

any freedom? isnt that a bit drastic? or are you referring to the particular issue of privacy here?

I never said society == government, then I wouldn't have said "society's government".

Government is a PART of society. Along with other norms (like what we consider acceptable in social situations).

Also, government is set up to protect from rape and theft. You're right, government often has immoral shortcomings, but most people believe it is better than anarchy. No one was signing this contract? Most people agree with the need for cops.

I'm not saying government does its job ideally. I'm not saying the majority wanting something makes it right. All I was saying in the comment was that if society wants something, and you disagree and want to be isolated from, while living with, that society, then there will be problems. If, on the other hand, you just want the society to not have a government (either at all or just not the current incarnations) then that is different.

What? How would you keep living in society but isolated from its government? You would continue to be using services that exist because of taxes for one thing. If you can't accept society's contract it's not really possible to live in it with no conflict.

Not saying government is perfect, and I agree with you that if you don't accept the society's government you are still coerced to live in it, but you can't really just choose to not take any part in it. You accept it, leave, or try to change it.

Well, you're a product of that, so your brain being able to come up with methods of augmentation that are faster than waiting for the "evolutionary process is the 3.5 billions of life evolution" is a product of all that evolution

We make our body better all the time, sometimes there are adverse effects, but that's just more to work on
