> if customers realized just how hard it is to get these sporty vechicles to run terrific at all times right--while being essentially choked by a plethora of smog devices. Well they might not be so picky.

We already are not picky. We've been used to buying crap for the last few decades, when companies realized they don't have to care about quality. Between planned obsolescence and skimping on manufacturing & QA, there are almost no good-quality products available on market. Everything is designed to be as bad as possible while still being sellable.

Yes, making quality things is hard, but it's not that hard. And, curiously, it has been done before - products manufactured more than few decades ago were much better than their current equivalents - be it shoes, furniture, or appliances like washing machines, microwave ovens or electric kettles. Many still use those products of the past today. Companies started making crap products on purpose, and I believe that we absolutely should be much more picky and demanding than we're now. The only reason this shit flies is because we can't coordinate well enough to push back.
Exactly... We can draw exactly zero conclusions regarding gender inequality in the tech industry without a control sample...

I think the HTML standard prohibits you from using non-standard tags like <clock> or <star>, unless they have a dash in them.
A sane organization will do it if the benefits outweigh the risks. An organization with sufficient risks will chose it. Most won't, because the risks (specifically, hard cash) won't be outweighed by the benefits.

But that's incidental to what was my real point, which is that if you do want a separate network, it has to be separate. Tie your two "separate" networks together with integration and you're returning single-points-of-failure back into the mix. Granted, practicality may dictate a couple of those... integrated authentication comes to mind... but you don't want the two separate networks to be all slickly and smoothly integrated for the most part.
And as you've demonstrated, it is always very easy to dismiss thousands of people's experiences as irrelevant in order to be comfortable with the status quo.

Why is the word "unwanted" relevant? Presumably if unwanted advances are not OK in the workplace, wanted ones aren't either, unless the issue is inadequate telepathic abilities among tech workers.
200+ is hardly a representative sample for the entire tech industry, especially as most of these reports were taken from the Bay Area. There's also no control group (other gender, other industries). And what specifically is an unwanted advance with regards to these statements?

I'd like to see the peer review on this one, to tell you the truth.
I'm just criticizing the methodology that supports the statement that 60 percent of women in tech experience unwanted sexual advances.

'Be nice to others' is ideology (albeit very weak). I imagine that you don't keep that from them.

"A Non-Disparagement clause restricts individuals from taking any action that negatively impacts an organization, its reputation, products, services, management or employees.

Or you can just find companies that have good culture, if that's what you're looking for.

That's ultimately the most important thing in my eyes: workplace culture. Do they respect my time? Both my at-work time and my off-work time?

If so, that's 80%ish of the culture that I need.
It also doesn't define what an "unwanted" advance is.

There's a stark difference between an inappropriate advance and an unwanted advance, and it generally comes down to whether or not the recipient has free agency to reject the advance without fear of reprisal in a power-imbalanced situation, workplace or otherwise.
That is incredibly interesting. Thank you for posting.
Well it's not like Facebook, Google et al. are making new open standards...that'd definitely be better for users than a battle of walled gardens.
Sure we can - let's say we look at the fashion industry and see it's just as bad there - or even worse. So what?

That doesn't mean that as an industry we should put up with gender inequality. Gender inequality is an incredibly irrational historical artifact and in times where it's so hard to hire excellent employees - creating a gender equal workplace gives employers an edge.

This sort of data can give employers the confidence that investing in fixing the problem would indeed help giving them an edge over other workplaces since the problem is so widespread.

I've heard the "blame a vendor" argument again and again in my life, but I have yet to see this "blame" ever occur. Granted, I'm dealing with small and medium-sized companies, but I've never seen any kind of tangible financial outcome from "blaming" a vendor (other than that vendor not getting future sales).
Some issues:

Paint on any medium is a slightly sculptural 3D. You can look at a masterpiece from four hundred years ago and see the brushstrokes. The reflection from the relief map changes as you move your head.

Fine art inkjet prints are more subtly textured, because museum-grade paper is never perfectly flat.

A lot of art is huge - many feet by many feet. The giant displays needed to reproduce it don't exist yet.

But the biggest problem with electronic frames is working out how to power them without trailing an obvious power lead to the floor. You can solve this problem by plastering the display into the wall, or by building a false wall, or by ignoring it. None of those are ideal.

I'd love to see a practical solution, but I'm not sure one is possible with current technology - although it may get closer with the new film displays that are appearing.

I like the light sensing here though. That's a clever solution.

Agreed... Not really sure why Nissan was part of their target set. Apparently Anonymous is going after anything they can in Japan to bring awareness to the citizens. Definitely an odd choice though.

"One of the Anonymous hackers told BBC News that they “have targeted big corporations to spread awareness about the killing [of dolphins] in the cove in Taiji because the Japanese news is censoring it.” "
Is that serious?

We can draw the conclusion that MOST women in tech are sexually harassed! What comparison is required? Why does it need to be worse than other industries to require examination and action?

It's like saying, "Well, we know 500 people were killed in Chicago last year, but that doesn't tell us anything until we find out how many people were killed in London, Beijing, and Tegucigalpa."
No, that is not at all what's being discussed on this thread; look at it again from the top.
I agree with your overall point but why is defense a bad example? Defense systems benifit a great deal from advancements in science.
> I was pretty convinced back then that the internet would help to blur the lines between States, but it appears that the opposite has happened.

I'll disagree. The idea that we can use things like proxies shows how the internet has little regard for our ideologies. On top of that, people aren't going to stop just because Netflix makes it harder, they are just going to pirate instead.

So officially, yes, the internet hasn't blurred the lines. In reality, Internet-users are becoming quite disenfranchised with the entire "State" idea, and frankly just wander around it.

Building Rancher Catalog Templates with Docker Compose
I use TAOCP on a regular basis where I work, I started writing DSLs for industrial systems then learned from TAOCP how to optimize memory of these embedded systems. We leaf through the pages whenever we can and always find something relevant to what we're working on. We also used just a few LOC for hand rolled Knuth in a customer app field engineers use to quickly find documentation that is so fast and accurate we get offers to buy it. As a result these corps all keep their ancient embedded systems that would cost multi millions to replace as we keep making them faster and more reliable.

Knuth is also a fan of abstracted programming languages like Literate programming which he claims without it he wouldn't have been able to create a lot of the exercises in recent TAOCP volumes so anybody declaring that if you're "just" a Java programmer you won't get any use out of the books are likely incorrect.
Because nation states have various censorship requirements for these services to continue to exist in their jurisdiction. "watch content not available in their home country" is the key phrase here. If you want to watch something that has been deemed 'unfit' for the masses by the local law, Netflix has to follow those laws.

Licensing agreements are another problem, but this one looks to be specifically about catering to local law. There are probably also issues with production company contracts, entertainment union contracts, etc even if Netflix "owns" the show. Wikipedia lists four different production companies alone for "House of Cards." Then there are probably issues with at least SAG-AFTRA, WGAW, DGA, ASCAP for music/score licensing, etc. These are all stakeholders with, usually, strong contractual rights to the IP.
This kind of studies are indeed really difficult to make, it's a sensitive subject so not everyone is going to report it the same way, you need to find the right group of people, a sample large enough and compare with across industries which is even harder to do. So I'm convinced personally there's some problems with women in tech which is partially due to the low amount of women going into tech but I think that's really hard to quantify in real numbers.
I wish when people use survey statistics that they would show us the original question. For example I wanted to know if the sexual advances question was specifically AT WORK, or if it could be at any point in their lives in any context.

If they're just asking if women who happen to work in tech now have ever received unwanted sexual advances in their entire life, well, that is worthless without a non-tech statistic to compare/contrast it to.

Also what is an unwanted sexual advance? Someone touching someone? Someone asking someone out once? A boss pressuring their underlings for sex/dates? It has no precise meaning.

Unfortunately I spent some time studying Sociology in my youth and one of the biggest takeaways from that was "you can make people agree with any position you want by changing the wording on the questions." So precisely what you ask is super important for knowing what to do with the conclusion. We actually created surveys where we got completely opposite results from exactly the same democratic just through word-alterations (on purpose).

I always had this idea for a highway conversion that makes it into a sort of a railway for individual cars.

SO imagine you drive on your local streets until you get to this "highway". Then via some mechanism (something like the drive-through car wash but more heavy duty obviously), you merge onto the highway and get pulled by electric motors (perhaps even motors within your own car) along with all the other cars. You can then relax in your car, read, nap or watch videos until you are taken out at your exit ramp.

No pollution, no grid-lock, no accidents. Just a smooth ride all the way to within 2-5km from your destination.

I haven't gotten piles of these offers that are "double" what I'm making at a startup. I don't think working for a startup automatically qualifies me for a 2x salary at Google. Over my career I've gone to progressively smaller companies and made progressively more money.

Let's be honest, there aren't that many big companies that are known to be great places to work generally (like Google). And if you don't do well at your interviews with the small number of "cool" big companies... It's not such a straightforward tradeoff.

And by the way - my last startup before my current one was one of those "really bad" situations. It was a startup trying to run itself like a big company - more executives than devs.

Netflix doesn't own all of its Netflix published content. Sony owns House of Cards. Lionsgate owns Orange is the New Black.

Netflix's early tv productions deals were similar to how regular TV purchased content. You custom order the show, but you only get "first run" rights. The production company keeps the rights to international markets and even re-run rights.

In the USA, you can buy House of Cards episodes from Comcast and Netflix doesn't get a penny for it.

This is unlike, say HBO, which owns control control of the content they create.
I agree with most of your points. Gender equality is an important issue in society at large. But the makers of this site are drawing a tech-industry-specific conclusion, so they should at least attempt to present unbiased data.
As you can see from inspecting the examples, any non-standard tag will use standard tags in the dom, with a class denoting their imba type.
I'm pretty sure nearly all women (and most men) get "unwanted sexual advances" at least a few times in their lives. After all we can't read each other's minds. The crucial question to me is not whether advances happen, but whether they stop when it is made clear that they're unwanted.
I am sharing this article because it enumerates many needs in the microbiome research field that I think the HN crowd would find interesting.

"Most organizations cited a pressing need for the hardware, software and data science for managing microbiome data. This was well expressed by an FDA scientist, who recognized the need for ‘high performance computation resources that are flexible to accommodate a rapidly evolving analytical pipeline’ and ‘cloud computing solutions that overcome confidentiality and privacy concerns’."

Honestly, I doubt they even really care. This is probably just to keep from getting screwed over in some licensing deal. "Look, we really tried hard to stop this, I guess those internet-guys are just too good at getting around the system. Oh well."
Just fine them for transgressions. But like, seriously fine them. VW is worth ~350 billion Euro, had 200 billion Euro of revenue and 10 billion Euro of profits (2014 data). Fine them those 10 billion EUR. And if they squeal, fine them 20 more. That's more than enough to erase all the damage they did, account for unfair market advantage and do some serious progress on environmental issues.

If it doesn't hurt, they won't learn.

The link seems to insist there is a problem with women in tech, even if the study is correct, it could just mean that women are not treated the same way in other industries either. It does not stop to take action indeed, I agree with that, I was just reacting to the study itself.

Another vote for that role as my favorite. The bedroom scene at the beginning would make a great actor's audition piece.
You don't necessarily get fired (if you're an engineer) when this happens, but you probably do get socially brutalized. The founders/investors inevitably begin bringing in "experienced managers" -- people whose primary qualifications are a few years in low-level management at a big-name company. They might even be the same age as you, if not younger. Important decisions begin to bypass you in favor of the new management structure. You get less and less authority in roles that you helped define. It's a really crappy experience.

The problem is that you're a known quantity, and the founders/investors see you as a great worker -- in a certain role. They perceive some problem, and since you're part of the system with the problem, you are seen as incapable of fixing the problem. Better to hire Magic Mike from Facebook or Brilliant Bob from Google to come in and make everything better.

I've seen this happen so many times. If you're an engineer, your choices are generally a) swallow your pride, ride out your vest and don't advance in your career, or b) quit, lose the money, and hopefully move into that more senior role somewhere else, so that you can be Magic Mike next time.
> If they're just asking if women who happen to work in tech now have ever received unwanted sexual advances

Given that only 60% of women reported unwanted advances, it's safe to say that it's not "at any point in their lives in any context." That being said, you make a good point about disclosing details of study.
