- Optimizing EQ is probably far more valuable for society.
- I am not sure that EQ can be optimized for in genetics as easily as IQ can.
- On an individual level, putting a child on the right side of their potential IQ curve will probably make their lives easier or better assuming that relatively few of their peers have this same advantage.
- If every child is on the right side of their potential IQ curve, then optimizing IQ will largely just be a different state for society rather than a noticeable improvement. Most (all?) improvements would likely be seen on the high end in terms of theoretical developments.
- Note that if this switch is somehow flipped in a society, I personally believe that there will be a huge EQ intergenerational crisis such that EQ will be valued even more.
It's the same language. ES2015 is just syntax "sugar" for doing the same thing, it's mostly opinionated and for convenience. So I suggest both looking at the old style and the new style and write your code in a way that make most sense to you! Then when you join a company, there will be style guides and "linters" to enforce it. But if you have to choose, start with the old style because that's how JavaScript have been looking like for 15 years and a lot of code looks like that. Also I'm not a big fan of "trans-pilers".
If they are writing in Node, I'd say there's no need to learn ES5 as they should be using a node version with LTS. If they are writing JS in the browser? Then yes, they should learn ES5 as it's quite likely they will be debugging transpiled code at some point.
If supporting IE or out of date mobile devices is worth your time (it might be, it might not be - consider CSS grid won't work, flexbox won't work, webcrypto won't work, HTML5 clipboard won't work, and you'll need double the time to deal with them and their awful devtools) transpiling is a good option.
I agree to an extent, but any modern transpired should also emit source maps which should shield most people from needing to look st or understand the "low level" generated code.
It converts your ES6 code into Javascript that can run on all browsers. It's how you can get advanced Javascript features before the browsers fully implement them. Look up Babel.
The evidence I know of that hint at monitoring being effective is from the Italians, where they say they thwart terrorism by closely monitoring and infiltrating potential groups. I remember reading that the Italian police says it takes 20 people to monitor one person effectively (will need to find a link). That kind of man-power is hard to scale.
His writings critical of the West go largely ignored in the West, which again isn't that surprising. For example his forward for Animal Farm was famously censored from publication.
If you read a little further, they were important details because the author used them as evidence in court to show he had his bag with him on the trip.
Wow, I thought he was just going to step away and take a break. Do we know who might replace him?
It's also interesting that the five shareholders mentioned in the NYTimes article want 2 "truly independent directors". What does that mean? Depending on how many board seats there are, maybe two votes aren't enough?
Haha I thought the same thing, then kicked myself for manifesting that thought into the universe, only because that seems the most probable Silicon Valley knee jerk reaction in this case...
