industry hostels are doing the same, though often worse

50$/nt(o), at a forgiving 28 days in a month is 1400$/mn

but they'll usually be kind enough to offer a 250/week deal for responsible long term stays

but still, thats $1000/(4 week period..month rates will fluctuate with length)

you may be able to find a 33$/nt, so 924/(4wk), which will probably grant a 200/wk.. but most will require you to leave after 3 weeks anyway for fear of sf squatter rights

if you want a steady living space, with access to the tools of your trade: electricity,internet, and like interested people; for $850/month seems a fine alternative to other temporary living opportunities

though, i agree both are appalling and minimal living space should be a commodity

so are these 'bunk-bed craigslist ads' exploitative or, to turn a poignant phrase, disrupting the already unfortunate hostel market

Last I checked, Facebook wasn't exactly a bastion of free speech. It seems like the market has indeed spoken, though I'd personally be very wary of ascribing any moral judgments from macro-level market transactions -- especially given that in practice we live in highly complicated mixed market societies, and not anything resembling laissez-faire.

For code, I've never even needed to stop myself; it's just intuitive. The idea that one reads code as one reads prose just seems weird. Code has so much structure (and so few operators, usually) that I can just directly map the symbols to the semantics, bypassing the composing characters.

And even if you have legacy code, I'd learn 3 then learn the difference(s) required to use the legacy code.
> Women by far are the target.

That is actually not true, see for example:

By perpetuating this false stereotype, you're doing more harm to gender equality than harassment does. Online harassment can be bad - I've suffered it myself - but at least it's fairly equal in harming everyone.

The stereotype that men are harassers and women are victims arises because there are a few famous women that have been harassed very publicly. Why have there been more famous cases of women than men, when surveys do not find a large gender difference in actual harassment? I suspect it's that very stereotype of women as victims. It's an easy narrative to fall into, as you are doing right here.
But getting someone's Facebook is less socially awkward than their email address. You can also remember them easier and communicate with them faster.

Most of the people I met this summer didn't have an American phone number so Facebook (or Whatsapp) was the only way to communicate with them.

I did not state that property sales have been suppressed, I said that property tax revenue has been suppressed. My particular anecdote was around property improvement, not sales. And once again, a property sale does not mean that reassessment definitely occurred.

However it is hardly groundbreaking to state that prop 13 has created a "lock in" effect [1][2][3][4].

A certain type of haircut and an arbitrary weight are signs of being healthy and socially well adjusted?
But would you argue that this is a flaw in the model of mail or in the perception and attitude towards emails and newsletters? If it's the latter, well, that's up to each themselves, and would deem mails and newsletters a still-viable way of notifying reliably about updates. While, if there are actual, inherent flaws in the idea of aggregated mails that make you and others dismiss them, another approach might in fact be better.
N.B.: There at least seems to be a curious niche where even daily newsletters like thelistserve.com or nowiknow.com have their little space, for whatever that's worth.
Convincing the world that they don't exist?
I think one predictor of readability is the ratio of markup to data. XML gives you some flexibility there, but XML-based formats tend to have very verbose markup, which overwhelms the data.

To cut back on markup in XSV, I used self-closing tags for commas and newlines. It would have been more conventional to use something like <row><column>...</column></row>. That has some advantages, maybe, but it doubles the number of tags (and it introduces things that are not strictly 1:1 with CSV, which could lead to ambiguity).
Child pornography is not quite the same as saying something. You could say you support child pornography and create stories about it. Just not create it with actual children.

Yes free speech is "say whatever you want"

Because happily so far they serve the ads from different hosts than the content. I worry for the day when they will serve from the same, and don't provide the contents until you fetched and displayed the ads.
nobody has to learn to get comfortable with something they find objectionable

Can you elaborate on this a bit? For instance, what about Kim Davis? Or extending Kim Davis' claims only a very little, those Mennonites and Quakers who pay only 48% of their Federal Income Tax because their religion makes them very uncomforable with the 52% of federal spending that goes to Department of Defense. And yes, I may have the exact percentage wrong, don't pick nits.
that is interesting. it sounded like at least some of the winners in the article were solo vs team, but yeah... good point.

Although... it basically means they can work with others who also have the ... whatever it takes to play at that level. That programming team member paired with anyone else in your office may be a horrible fit.
"nobody has to learn to get comfortable with something they find objectionable."

Do you really believe that? Think about where that goes.

Apply that to yourself. Turn off your computer now, and leave it turned off for the next week. Include your phone. Include any online connectivity you have at work.
The newspaper article is really exaggerating this report. Note how few actual quotes there are and how many "in other words". Read the report for yourself at:

http://www.broadbandcommission.org/Documents/reports/bb-wg-g...

It's mainly describing the current state of things, not advocating any specific solutions. The one mention of licensing is one bullet point in a chapter, not any kind of main focus. Half the actual suggestions are things that people are mentioning in these comments as alternatives.
> women have to learn to be comfortable with some degree of harassment

What women are harassed regularly anyway? Only the most prominent ones. So what? You should see the responses to all of Trump's tweets. What if he started crying "oh remove all of this, I feel unsafe!!"
I think the middle ground is letting each platform self-moderate, and let users decide where they want to post. If you want to be anonymous and filter absolutely nothing then you can, if you want to aggressively moderate hate speech then go for it.

If government gets involved then its likely going to be all or nothing.
Where I come from, in the American West, it is your job to fence your neighbor's cattle _out_ if you don't want them on your land. It is not his job to fence them _in_ so they stay on his land. This principle is enshrined in centuries of statues and legal precedent. It works really well.

Similarly, I claim that in a free and open society, with lively and vibrant debate constantly transpiring in the metaphorical agora, it is your job to _not be offended_ by things that other people say, not their job _to avoid offending you_.
In your position as devil's advocate, how does your parallel to Halley's comment provide any justification to your counter-argument? We don't have a special term for a comet when it's within 10% of perihelion.

Again, remember that you were being a devil's advocate. My "so what?" comment was mean to highlight the weakness of your counter-argument. It's not actually significantly naked-eye brighter but requires instruments to measure. Now you've jumped to something outside of the role that you've assigned yourself, because you switched to talking about 'your kind of fun' and using instruments to help with your fun. That's a very different topic than what you started with.

Saying "X is an uncommon event" does not, on its own, justify or explain anything. There are millions of rare events every day. Should we celebrate when Jupiter is at perihelion? That's only once every 11.86 years. What about when Mars is in aphelion? 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko was at perihelion on 13 August 2015 - did you celebrate?
What's hyper-exponential growth supposed to mean? "User base doubles every month" (so 2^x) but then "the value is the square of the number nodes" which yields 2^2x, which still has the same properties as 2^x.

How does this link prove your point?

Doesn't measure the intensity nor does it go in to general atmosphere of hate. Having post after post about "fat chicks" that is not specifically aimed at you can still be incredible painful.
Everywhere else in the world you are responsible for the harm that you cause.
I'm not sure parent was referring to pornography, but to countless examples of sites like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit censoring information that they find inconvenient (e.g. the fappening, r/fatpeoplehate, etc.).

> Free speech is not "say whatever you want."

Parent clearly defines "free speech" as "they will not censor anything legal", which the websites above unfortunately don't follow.

> Child pornography is not free speech.

Ironically, in many jurisdictions "child pornography" includes virtual child pornography and cartoons, which any sensible person would say should be free (we can see movies depicting children getting murdered, people getting decapitated and women getting raped, but not of 17 year olds having sex?!?)
Yes. It is unusual for a healthy male to weigh 120 pounds unless they are much shorter than average. Similarly it is unusual for a person with well developed social skills to dress poorly and have nervous tics.
We'll have to agree to disagree. To me, bad neighbor behavior is the problem, and I've seen nothing here to make me change my mind.
Accuracy is the ratio between packets correctly received / packets received with an error expressed in percentage.

This error obviously is detected with CRC, data trashed and NAK sent to inform transmitter of uncorrect packet reception (all in background)
are people still learning python? eons ago when I last looked at it, people were still making this very question LOL

it's the curse of open source software: as long as the source is out there, people with legacy software will continue updating it. Perl 6 was long in the making, never made any real inroads because all of its audience was already readily invested in perl 5.

it only really works with commercial tools, because people will whine much but eventually bend over and buy Microsoft's or Oracle's latest bloated money grabber. Because there's no option, right?
If an extension like Prebake (which I realize just a filter list) added a 'DNT: 0' HTTP header (Do Track instead of Do Not Track), then automatically dismissing cookie notices would be a "legitimate" new solution and not be "cheating" (as some might call it). If the user also runs a ad or tracker blocker, well, that's their business and a different problem. ;)

Right, so 40 years later we have 100% autonomous cars and use the entire road capacity of 20% more than we currently use. Also more people are driving so we are back where we started with traffic jams or waiting in line to get on the road.
Anyone who considers online insults as "threats" is being insincere and only propagating their own agenda.
Those are obviously not the only two choices.

There's a lot individual communities can do to recognize and mitigate the problem, even on Hacker News. Not starting off the discussion with "women have to learn to be comfortable with some degree of harassment" would have been a great start.
Except the governments (and the UN), of course.
I agree with the article that the changes propose are radical and dangerous. Instead, improvement could be achieved bottom up. For example, many women complain about online dating being an unpleasant experience for women. Some women decided to do something about it and started Bumble,

http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/apr/12/bumble-dat...

A dating app that only lets women message men. It's an interesting idea and totally changes the dynamic.

If online harassment is a problem on dating sites, women can and have created a better solution for themselves in Bumble. Women can do the same with a safer Twitter and Facebook - if they want. It's never been easier to do so, with Kickstarter and other funding options.

Women are not a minority - they are over 50% of the population, and more than capable of solving problems like this, again, if they want. Apparently things were bad enough in dating for Bumble, but since there isn't a female-oriented Twitter or Facebook, I suspect the problems are overstated on those sites.
Doing it wrong
We elect our representative (partly) for this reason. One of the advantages of a parliamentary democracy is that members of the parliament could in theory be cleared for full access to information and then could in theory provide the needed oversight. One of the issues for me about the way that GCHQ in the UK and the NSA in the US operate is that this democratic oversight has either been absent or has been ignored. Furthermore the massive data collection programs that these agencies run will allow them to manipulate politicians (which I assume is already done). Also the oversight measures that have been proposed so far are in the UK are totally laughable.

For what it worth, I used that a number of times when I was in Portland, and it worked just fine for me.

I highly recommend watching his talk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_Rn3EOEjGE), IMHO it was one of the best talks at the SF Data Science Summit earlier this year (if you care about the "why" more than the "how" :) )
I think email works better because people perceive it as a more direct message just to them. If say, you send an email and bcc people on it, they feel like they were sent a direct one-on-one personal message (even if they objectively know it is a newsletter). Status updates on Twitter, Facebook, etc, when it was obvious that they are for multiple people not just a one-to-one message don't produce the same effect. People don't feel like they have to respond because someone else can respond instead.

The very first chart shows women are not the "by far" targets of online harassment. Look at the numbers.

Anecdotes like "posts about fat chicks" are not convincing. There are plenty of anecdotes going both ways.
Right. This thing is a control freak's dream. Notice that "about 2,500 Deloitte workers share 1,000 desks." Are there disfavored employees wandering around in a futile search for a free desk? If you leave your desk, is that sensed and it immediately becomes available for someone else?

I think that in a few years we get a browser add-on which automatically all online harassments (at some cost of silencing false positives, as always). But then each person will be able to set their threshold, depending on one's sensitivity.

Global censorship actions (and especially be people not understanding Internet... or even worse - wanting to make the information flow top-down) are putting much greater burden... and risk.

While I don't want to downplay the online harassment, I (for a number of years) used Internet as the only tool to escape from it. (Online it is much easier to choose a place one is comfortable in.)

I agree that simpler is often better, but running multiple cache processes may be a requirement for either memcached or redis if you want to get consistent latency from them. I have observed a significant improvement in performance (at large scale) when binding memcached to a single NUMA zone.

NUMA lets you address non-local memory, but memcached and redis don't utilize libnuma so they don't know whether the memory is local or not. The entire system's memory is available as one contiguous blob, but some of it is a lot slower than the other (depending on which CPU core you're running on). To get around this, on most servers you'll need to run two processes (and two different ports) and bind them to appropriate CPU core sets and memory.
