Git is p2p and distributed from day 1. Github is just a convenient website. If Microsoft takes down your repo, just upload to another system. Nothing but convenience will be lost.

I disagree that parsing is validating. For example, you could give me a valid ISO date time string, but I want a shipping date and you gave me something in the past. It parses, but is not valid.

I disagree that validating early is bad because some other part of the code might also validate later and possibly do it differently. Yes, that’s bad, but not a reason to not validate early.

I understand the concept. I just disagree that it’s a good idea.

I don’t see it. I would much prefer to validate early rather than late. The example of ‘other code might validate it differently or not at all’ seems specious. I don’t want invalid information “deep within the bowels of the system”.

What exactly do they think goes on in these bathrooms anyway?

Heated seats ftw.

Good. I could use a house.

Is your name Beethoven by any chance?

This little hack is gonna cost us 51 CPU cycles.

Grab a brush and put a little cmakeup.

The blind part is just around name, gender, race, … but prior experience and education would clearly be important to know.

I know my idea has many flaws, and I didn’t propose it seriously. But I really like the idea of removing popularity and money and cronyism from the path for choosing people to represent us and run our government. It should be a temp job and a responsibility and not a career.

Everyone must serve. No elections. Every position has a term limit. The current administration is responsible to select their replacements via a double blind selection process that only provides information relevant to experience and knowledge, capabilities.
