> Have you made any decisions about Bryana's responsibilities that were motivated by her gender, rather than her personal strengths?

Nope. Fortunately for me, while I was in a position to make those decisions about Bryana (I've since changed gigs), her own excellent performance was the only thing I had to think about.

Look, I'll let Bryana's own career speak for itself, which I have no doubt it will, but for myself I'd have confidence putting her in front of any audience on any topic she feels comfortable talking about.

One other thing, if you know anything about how conferences work, CFPs/speaking roles are something managed by the conferences, not companies. Questions of 'token' or otherwise are best posed to the individual organizers of the conference in question.
Sergey Brin and Larry Page didn't make their money by programming, though.

The laws are typically guaranteeing that manufacturers cannot sell directly in places where they also have dealers.

Because a regional car dealer with $X0 million of revenue cannot compete with a multinational car manufacturer with $X0 billion of revenue. Any time a manufacturer didn't want a particular dealer around anymore, they could simply drop their prices and drive them out of business. That's not a healthy dynamic for a business relationship.

One could argue - and I agree - that the best way to handle this is via the free market, and let manufacturers who do this sort of thing gradually lose their distribution network due to lack of trust. But the short-term collateral damage is high-profile bankruptcies, unemployment, and high auto prices.
I think the "teachers aren't paid enough" thing is about the opposite of this. Its not that teachers would be better at their jobs if they get more money. Its that if you wan't to attract the type of people who currently go STEM instead of the people who currently major in education, you need to pay teachers more. Sort of a "you get what you pay for" type of thing.
We're pretty small (painting 10,000 paintings per month is a solved problem, but we're not close to that volume), so we can't really enforce anything. We didn't really detect any unhappiness with any of the smaller studios (we didn't talk to workers in the factories). According to the studio heads, they usually recruited friends and ex-artist coworkers. Right now we only work with the smaller studios since we only do custom non-mass-produced work.

I can however answer #2. Oil-based paints are in fact toxic, and known to the State of California to cause cancer. You will see the signs plastered in the oil paints aisle of Blick's and Utrecht stores. This is especially apparent when you consider the name of some colors like "Cadmium red." Most oil paints, if not all, contain lead as well.

Interesting focus only on China. Apols I erased my comment but the original point was the political empires seem to last many centuries as oppposed to corporate empires which seem to be at their peak for mere decades.

You make a massive error in your analysis, and that is to limit your perspective to Chinese dynastic political cycles. You ignore the idea of geographic empire building, where there is ample evidence of multi-century empires, and we are not talking only Roman. Also Byzantine, then Ottoman, British, French, and Spanish, not to mention Persian or Zulu. On China, while internal politics mean dynasties come and go, Chinese territorial integrity has been unchallenged for many centuries, testament to the fact that while the individuals, families, dynasties, may come and go, the underlying political structure is very resilient.

In ever single one of my cited cases, the nation-level structure is multi-century in longevity, and beats by an order of magnitude any commerce-driven corporate leadership structure we have ever seen.

So. My point is that corporations as a structure for human interaction/cooperation are deficient in that they are not able to deploy force. Only money. The latter is not long lived without the former.

> I have a friendly request for you: please don't comment about Ceylon on any more hackernews or reddit threads.

This is really unproductive. Reddit and HN are discussion forums; what we want on them is more discussion, not less. We want high-quality, accurate, discussion, but if we're not getting that, the solution is to raise the quality, not reduce the volume.

In particular, the last thing i, as a reader of discussions, want is for a discussion forum to turn into a confederation of theocracies where nobody but the local priesthood are allowed to speak.

So, pron, i also have a friendly request for you: please continue to comment about Ceylon wherever you like - but make sure you've done your homework before doing so!

Specifically, if you could produce a concrete example of how Ceylon's reified generics interact poorly with Java's generics, that would be really interesting. If you could produce an example of how non-Ceylon reified generics interact poorly with Java generics, then that would be interesting, and gavinking could explain how Ceylon avoids the problem, which would also be interesting. And if you find that actually, there isn't such a problem with reified generics, that would be interesting too, not least for you.

That list also mentions a "Longest railway tunnel excluding urban metro lines with intermediate stations", so I would guess it is in that category.

Makes some sense; a metro tunnel with stations every kilometer or so will not feel like a single tunnel, even if it was engineered as one.

Truth is grounded in verifiable facts. You can be mistaken about facts, so that's easy enough to fix. Liars can't change their story because once they do the whole thing starts coming down, they can only keep so much of the fabricated universe in their head.

That's mostly my interpretation of it, I've met only very few people that were lying outright during the course of many DDs but when they do that's how they all - so far, and of course there could be undetected ones that made it through somehow though I highly doubt that - fell down.

From what I've seen it is very hard to keep the story straight over the course of a couple of weeks if it isn't true.

And what if said young software engineering student reads Bryana's blog post and realizes that Bryana may only have been chosen to speak because she is a woman? What sort of inspiration would that be for other women to join STEM? How should anyone view speakers that have been invited to speak based primarily on their race or gender?

It would set the whole industry back by decades. Not because women got involved, but because they became token minorities instead of competent colleagues. For an entire generation, minority STEM students would face impostor syndrome in themselves, and have to work twice as hard to prove themselves because everyone would assume they got to where they are based on "positive discrimination" instead of merit and ability.

It seems highly unlikely that this decision was made based on personal artistic preferences of the CIA employees in charge of this program.

Like when the question came up "Hey which art movement are we going to prop up with millions of dollars?" some head honcho said "I like abstract expressionism.. make it so".

To put it another way, do you believe any decision at the CIA involving millions of dollars is not made without hordes of analysts poring over every available action and every possible outcome.

The difference is that you can have an interest in your childs education and have a chance to get in on a charter.

With zoned schools you can have an interest in your childs education and have no way of getting in simply because you can't afford it.

The point is that those who claim that charter schools get to pick the good students and leave the bad ones with the public schools are simply wrong. It's the public schools in the rich areas that get to pick their students simply by whether they can afford to live where they do or not.

That works when more streams = more money. When users pay for premium, the revenue is capped. Artist payout depends on their 'market share' and it's a zero-sum game.

http://www.spotifyartists.com/spotify-explained/#royalties-i...

Let's say that there are 40 million paying users, all streaming 500 songs a month...and then there's me, who only streams 5 songs a month (I'm busy, and I like throwing money away).

So, there's 20,000,000,005 total streams that month, and $400 million in revenue. Spotify takes their cut, which leaves $280 million. My artist's share, according to bc:

echo '(5 / 20000000005) * 280000000' | bc -l
.06999999998040000000

Seven cents.

ADDED: To clarify, seven cents for five plays isn't a bad rate at all. From the user's perspective, though, it can be offputting that I'm attracted to the platform because of a certain set of artists, and then my money goes elsewhere. I understand why they do it. Popular acts attract users, and users mean money. They gotta feed the monkey.
> This is interesting, because you're ignoring the fact that the author worked in this exact business for some time and claims that it did once work and doesn't anymore.

Reading between the lines, it "worked" because it was an incredibly high margin business and so when a project wasn't on track they could simply throw many more developers into the mix to get it over the line.

> Either he was deluded at the time and overcame his delusion without ever realizing he was deluded

The point is its still http.

Think of TOR as acting like a VPN or point-to-point tunnel. You can conceptually think of it as another network interface plugged into your network. The policy you choose what to route over it is your own. It doesn't affect how any other protocols function.

I can still access regular sites over TOR. I can also access regular websites over a VPN. openvpn+http:// isn't exactly useful either for the same reason.

And there are other special tld. Your multicast domain group (e.g. .local) is also special. Your dns resolver sees the TLD and resolves it specially. But once again, doing multicast DNS doesn't impact http, git, ssh, etc. So it be silly to have to write mdns+http://... as well.

And if you where to join them, then you have to describe what kind of behaviour should happen if, for example, on openvpn+http://foobar.tld you hit a hyperlink to http://baz.tld. Do I rewrite this to prepend openvpn+? Fail? etc.
"A person can, throughout their life, learn how to trade less of their time for more money. That makes taxation far less of a burden than slavery."

Because of that, the industry raising up the females in the industry to attempt parity is necessary, whether or not it qualifies for the definition of discrimination.

I imagine this suit over at NSA, who probably started from a technical background. Couple of guys from a project team tell him they can break significant portions VPN connections, for $400M (because govt). All they need is to break a couple of primes. He thinks for a couple of days. He asks what happens if someone changes the primes. Silence. Someone says processing power will have made cracking further primes much easier in the future. "But the size of primes will have grown too," he says. "Not this time guys, maybe someday."
