The short answer is: because glass.

Glass (especially the stuff they use in optical fibres) is pretty good at not interacting with photons, which is why it looks like glass.

Why doesn't glass interact with photons? Because it has a large band gap. There are no excitations to be had at optical wavelengths, so there's no way for the photon's energy to be transferred to anything else.

Some fraction of the photons used in this experiment will nonetheless have been absorbed along the way, but that's not a problem, we only count ones where we have a pair.

How does a credit score service know which of the dozens of John Does you are on Facebook?

The only ways in which this can work is a) you have a pretty unique name on FB or b) you have to give your FB name on your credit application (if I'd see this on a form, I'd just tell the bank guy to forget everything and walk out).

Of course, this opens a possibility for manipulation - either you use someone else's clean FB page, or a malevolent entity creates a profile in your name, or you yourself have one "clean" profile and one "real" profile which many people already do to hide their pot smoke pics from potential employers.
When it comes to culture, the consequent and the cause are not easily separable and often feed back into each other.

It's very hard (indeed, practically impossible) to say that X culture existed because of Y culture - in reality they were all tangled up in each other and likely self-reinforcing. In reality X causes Y causes X causes Y causes Z causes Y causes X.

Which IMO is the case if we're talking about the 50s cover phenomenon - the covers arose out of pre-existing racist culture, but said racism was allowed to more easily persist itself via the covers, which allowed radio stations an avenue to provide black R&B (that the audience clearly wanted) without forcing people to confront the fact that it's black R&B by relabeling it and dropping an all-white cover band on it.

The success of said white cover bands (who were able to get much more airtime than their black counterparts, because duh reasons) was also used to reinforce the superiority of the white covers over the originals.

Sadly, a lot of things have feedback loops built into them, it makes untangling cause and effect pretty hard.

Not sure how familiar you are with the phenomenon - it's all rather fascinating, if not a bit depressing to study. It wasn't so much that black bands weren't being listened to - they were, some managed to chart, and they were at the very forefront of a generation's changing preferences. The (to some people, alarming) popularity of these bands is what prompted the covers in the first place, in large part driven by concerned parents who feared their children listening to black musicians, but were under the gun to provide an alternative outlet for a new generation whose tastes were markedly different than their parents'.

I think there's a pretty strong case that the cover band phenomenon made it easier for existing racism to persist - though of course that's not particularly quantifiable - in any case I think it's not particularly farfetched to say that the whole phenomenon was harmful.

If you're interested in listening to some concrete examples (all of these are on Spotify), the aesthetics here are fascinating:

Sh-Boom by The Chords, covered by The Crew-Cuts (whose band name clearly wins the award for "least subtle reflection of society's fears in the 50s")

Tutti Frutti by Little Richard, covered by Pat Boone (who was a central figure in the cover phenomenon, and largely built his career on covering and out-charting a vast number of black musicians)

and because we just celebrated Back to the Future Day - Earth Angel by The Penguins, covered the Crew-Cuts (again with them!)

Arsenal news on this page. Wow.

"StatDNA’s database is now Arsenal’s database, so if Wenger wants to sign a defender, who is, say, 6ft 4in, an excellent reader of the game and an accurate passer, one push of a button will bring up the best options in world football."

Interesting and Arsenal need a few.
If you're curious as to real reasons, perhaps you should look for the more articulate people who took a stand against this cultural appropriation. Not what Shaun O'dwyer warns you about "sophomoric manifestos".

It says something that this article against anti-racism protestors, which has nothing serious to do with "hacking" is #2 now on HN. (Or hey, let's have more articles about pop singers wearing kimonos, to pore over and learn hacking techniques.)

At least these protestors actually used tech to "disrupt" something, unlike the startups which use the term as doublethink.
I suspect many hacker types do have problems with the small talk, I know I do.

When I broke down and got sick I started cognitive behavioral therapy and among the things we talked about was expectations. It turned out that I didn't really know what my boss' expectation of me was. What I thought his expectation was were one of the things that broke me. And it was all fantasy. Lesson learned. Be frank and honest, don't be afraid to talk to your boss. Make sure you get answers that are explicit and something you understand. Make sure it's not cloudy company and management pep talk that you can't even remember a few minutes after the meeting.

Me and my boss talked a lot, and I ended staying in the company, but switched boss. :)
What? Couching is not all scouting... no one's denying that Wenger is always on the look out for young prospects.

But Wenger is a sort of 'old fashioned' coach. He prefers focusing on how his players can do better, rather than trying to focus on the weaknesses of the opponent, which is definitely not 'modern'. This has been slowly changing the past few seasons however.

That being said, I'm definitely no #WOB just in case you think that.
Yeah, that's fair. And not much computation available for design work.

Still, cars now are amazing. I mean, you could pick up a $60k 700hp mass produced monster this year. I can't think of the last time i've heard of a tire failing. Stuff is made by machines, they're unbelievably reliable. You should easily get 100k out of any new car.

1. Update your code (a few seconds)
2. Update your requirements (this can take several minutes in some cases)
3. Run migrations
4. Run collectstatic
5. Restart any daemons
6. Restart your app

Even if you can guarantee no processes will restart in this period (maybe you pause your daemons and you've configured your webserver to not spawn any new workers for a while) you've got the issue of migrations.

Personally I stop the webserver before this sequence and restart it afterwards as I can't reliably reason about all the things that can go wrong in between.
> I've never seen it defined in a way that doesn't seem ripe for this kind of abuse.

That's because any definition of it is ripe for abuse, because out of a very specific context it's a dumb idea with no basis in fact or culture. Said's thesis mentioned in the article is more about appropriation as a symptom of wider oppression and prejudice, and more importantly it is more about incorrect, or exaggerated, perceptions of foreign cultures. The Japanese do wear kimonos, mainly in August.

At worst, cultural appropriation reinforces existing prejudices - deal with the prejudice, and cultural appropriation is a non-issue - but you can't eliminate prejudice just by forbidding any cultural exchange at all.
Hm, weird that he didn't mention the thing that I thought most of us were chasing: increased productivity. I meditate and began meditating to increase my ability to concentrate on one thing at a time. I found it has helped tremendously. I do feel the stress alleviating effects as well. Honestly, any advantage that you can get in life is going to payoff in the long run. It seems to me that the author just wanted to bark about something to be the edgy contrarian of his social network.

That's absolutely true. But note how gitlab has made a product around git, even though git itself is free.

There are quite a few products that twitter could have made around twitter itself that they never even looked at. At the same time, their costs are exorbitantly high (see 'whatsapp' for a company that gets this right).

I don't think the situation for Twitter is as hopeless as it seems, but then again, I don't run Twitter so maybe that's just my naive optimism.
> At least these protestors actually used tech to "disrupt" something, unlike the startups which use the term as doublethink.

Yeah, they disrupted a totally harmless event put on by the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK).
>your boss doesn't know that you are overloaded ?

He might not, people have different stress levels. I get stressed pretty easily, my boss, not so much.

As for not wanting/be able to change your attitude: I don't think you should be expected to. There will be jobs you can't hold, but telling someone that their attitude needs adjusting is somewhat narrow-minded. I behave, act and react in certain ways. That's just who I am, that excludes me for working for a large range of companies, but mostly is companies I wouldn't want to work for.
It's sorta weird to chat about Arsenal here...

I do agree with your above points, but he has his football (sorry American) philosophy which not most fans understand.

The past decade, he cut his spending to just build a new stadium for Arsenal, budget is tight, so what to do? Bring in the new blood, and the hard data + analytics help!

I'm hoping to see he can also bring in some data-driven approach on his on-field tactics and off-field strategy.
I came here to post that, but will instead have to mention Pope VIII, who drank the blood of 3 ten-year-old boys to try and stay alive...

Kibo means keyboard. The Kibo story began on the day when a guy found out that his girlfriend has been secretly reading his text messages. He got pretty upset about it, but at the same time he have decided not to dispute with her. Instead, the guy called his friend to ask him if he could recommend him an app for private messaging. He wanted an app to hide his messages in any messenger he uses. However, he was afraid that such an app compromises him, so at the same time he wanted the app to hide the fact of sending messages. After having a discussion, both guys realised that many smartphone users have the same privacy issue. Their confidential correspondence may become disclosed because of their own carelessness or an intentional attack. So, the guys performed R&D and released Kibo.

There's nothing anywhere about Groovy moving to Apache or looking for another governance structure during the years Codehaus was winding down. It was only first mentioned online about a week after the layoffs from Pivotal were announced. Everything that was on Codehaus was already moving to Github and Guillaume Laforge's groovy-lang.org website. Moving to Apache looks like a direct response to Pivotal's layoffs.

I only compare it to python because of the use case. Actually, if you read the post, I also consider Lua and other languages.

Still, I think, the similarity in syntax can help. If there is one thing that python got right, in my opinion, is its straightforward syntax, and that helps saving brain power for something other than parsing

Some time ago I did complete depart from Apple apps and services, while still using Mac. It was pain to extract all the images from Photos but music transition to cmus was smooth. I am mostly playing di.fm stations and cmus works well with subscription links.
Sadly both cmus and mplayer on Mac rely on Carbon components so there is big console warning for using deprecated components and more importantly they can't be send to background. If somebody got them playing as background process please let me know.

Related question from a non-sports person, about those 'bargain' prices. How long does it take for a player to become legendary, and when does their price catch up? Is the contract a bargain because it locks-in the unknown player at a below-market price even after they become legendary? Or is it a bargain because the contract lasts a season or two and establishes the player's skill, after which they have inertia on the team and can be signed at a new market-rate contract with less bidding-wars that would be the case if they were from another team?

I considered buying a Delorean once to drive around. I was at a point in my life where I didn't really need a car for transportation, yet, being a single guy, it was socially easier to have a car. So, I figured, why not make a statement?

Besides the obvious visual "wow" factor associated with the car and the Back to the Future franchise, they're surprisingly inexpensive for such an iconic car. The main problem with them is that Delorean Motor Company didn't really follow the concept of "model years," instead changing things as they went along, so restoring one to original condition is practically impossible. I was also not a fan of the aluminum engine block, since, if it ever got just slightly too hot, there's a good chance it would be ruined forever.

My implicit statement was that few, if any, sports competitions can do without rules.

See, for example, the "fastest car" competitions. Fairly free, but at some time they had to introduce a "powered through the axles" variant because real cars got beaten by earth-touching jet planes.

Even extremes such as "who gets to Mars first" has implicit rules. If I had to drop a few hundred nukes on earth to win that, I doubt people would remember me as the first to get to Mars.

If you looked at my comment history you'd see I'm extremely against ad-driven business models so I welcome the idea of this subscription service. What I don't welcome is how they go about it. Forcing your channels to adopt your policy and silently removing videos you could have accessed yesterday is awful.

And you seem to forget that users are often content creators as well on youtube. This is akin to saying "This doesn't affect users on our website, just a subset of them".
Same here. But when it comes to playing music stored locally, I’ve been using cmus for many years without trouble.
Also, the Web is much easier to relate to.

Many people have ideas for websites, they are facing them everyday, and it should feel pretty cool because you make something that you can share and the Web is not the huge mystery anymore. You know how it works now!

HTML5 games are also a great alternative (technically, it's still Web but it's really different from a typical web site). There are easy to use great frameworks like Phaser where you can develop the first platformer game in an evening/day/weekend (depending on experience) and no knowledge about graphics etc doesn't get in the way. As a nice bonus, it's ridiculously easy to deploy and share with friends. Just drag and drop the the files on FTP and it Just Works. Can't say the same about python or ruby.

In contrast, when you develop a unixy command line application to calculate the area or volume of something... Nowhere near.

Yeah it's definitely weird chatting about Arsenal on HN. That said, I can't believe nobody has mentioned the Bayern 2-0 win in this thread yet!
But if there were no easy money then those startups would have less money to spend on salaries as well. If we believe that easy money benefits established companies more than it does startups (not sure) or funded startups more than bootstrapped ones (almost certainly) then the net effect might be bad.

But an 'arms race for scarce talent' probably benefits a large proportion of the readers here, and harms a much smaller proportion.

> 23andMe can do whatever they want with your data

This isn't correct. 23andMe are quite expliict about how genomic data may be used in their [privacy policy](https://www.23andme.com/about/privacy/#jump-link-content-con...).

Research using your genetic data only occurs with your permission, and it's stripped of personally identifying information (i.e presented in aggregate) when delivered to third parties. 23andMe can't, for example, sell your genome to an insurance company.

23andMe don't have a fiduciary responsibility to protect your data, they have legal one. If you still find this overly concerning, you could just use 23andMe's genetic sequencing, which when I last checked was priced at below cost, download the data and tell 23andMe to delete all personal information.

Once you have the genetic data, there are many options for performing analytics. For example https://www.promethease.com/ which uses SNPedia and isn't under the same FDA scrutiny as 23andMe and doesn't have to self-censor.
