Which probably isn't a good strategy to handle taboo topics long-term.

It's the naive approach. The same approach that gets Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer banned even though they were very egalitarian for the time.

I'm substantially more worried about returning to a society with openly enforced taboos.

I thought we had left that in the past century, but I was clearly too optimistic.

When did it stop...

The trick is to not have taboo topics.

No, I'm sure if we ignore the problem long enough it will go away eventually.

I'm a recent graduate of Syracuse University. I studied applied math, with minors in physics and computer science. I am looking for full-time job in software engineer or some sort of devops. I have worked on a lot of personal projects, as well as contributed to open source Common Lisp projects.

Thanks!

I believe this is fixed [0].

Well, sure, for hello world! But these days anything you do with CLJS will involve the data structures, which is what brings in the dependencies :)

At my university, Syracuse University, we just learned that school will be online preliminary for one week after our spring break ends. (Finish this week of school, spring break, then online for a week after)[0].

Not sure that all my peers going home is the best idea. Also, we on campus have watch those from the Florence Abroad Program come back to campus and attend events. Not too likely to have been infected, but I'm worried about all our parents and grandparents.

I wonder, what will my Korean or Chinese friends do? If they are expected possibly to have to be back on campus in a month, they can't go home and come back, they can't stay here, so they have to pay for an apartment for a month?

Why an iPhone 8 over a 7? Is the performance much different?

Price wise an iPhone 7 Renewed on Amazon is only ~$250-260 (128gb) versus an iPhone 8 which is around ~$400 (64gb).

In addition to Dangus' comment with iPhone 8 you'll also get the same CPU that powers the iPhone X, which will be more than fine for quite a few more years. Furthermore I'm confident it will be supported with major software updates for a long time. It is the sweet spot for customers on a low budget or looking for a small phone. The iPhone SE, as much as I like to form factor, isn't a good new purchase at this point.

My understanding is that the iPhone 7 has a few more common hardware issues than the iPhone 8. Apparently a lot of iPhone 7 models are affected by messed up speakers and mics, the audio IC defect. Kind of an important feature.

I’ll admit that’s a pretty big price difference but I wonder if that has to do with the 7’s hardware issues making it a phone to stay away from. Or maybe it’s just old and that’s why it’s cheap.

Ah, maybe hardware issues. I will say, I have an 8 and the camera randomly broke on mine, and when I talked to someone who repairs them, she said that lately many of the 8 cameras have been breaking.

That said, the repair was fairly easy, it was a $30 camera and 20 minutes to repair it.
