Thanks for all the feedback! Yeah, this is definitely next on the list of bugs to fix. I definitely respect your opinion. I really looking a way to accomplish this problem from a different perspective using just client-side technologies. It would have been nearly impossible to accomplish this without the aid of Javascript unfortunately (besides just having static HTML of course but that wouldn't be any fun would it!)

> I will not, however, grant that it is right.

What proper mechanisms, then, does society grant the victims of weak-group-marginalization to fight their own marginalization? You're suggesting that even drawing people's attention to it is wrong.

> Bit of a tangent, but if you deliberately wanted to create furious opposition to your policies there's no better way than to put unequal protection front and center. "Everybody should be protected from X" is a winning policy. "These strangers over here should be protected from X, but not you" is, to put it charitably, not.

Unequal protection is already present everywhere. It is not binary (neither is it in this case), but it is very much at the core of modern democracy. The idea is that different people benefit from society to different extents or are harmed by society to a different extent, and therefore the taxes they need to pay or the investment they get from society should reflect that. Victims of a crime -- say theft -- are eligible for restitution, while people who are not victims, aren't. The idea of unequal protection in this case is that some groups are victims to unfair exclusion, and correcting that exclusion is fair.
I fear you're still overcomplicating it: Daniel is a battery manufacturer. The person complaining bought a camera from Spotify, which came with one of Daniel's batteries inside. Someone stole that camera.

(It's not perfect, but it's probably as close as you're going to get)
Reminds me of back in the late nineties I developed a freeware email client. The client header in the send emails said "???mail by www.example.com"

I tought it might give me more users... What it gave me was lots of angry emails once someone used my mail client to send out spam. That header was gone pretty quickly.
> Firstly, what happened to her is definitely misconduct, but not sexual harassment.

Perhaps you do not understand what "sexual harassment" constitutes in typical usage, then.
I think the reason 2% is viewed as low compared to expectations is not understanding how it compounds. 2% means a doubling of the economy in 35 years. 2% means that in the space of an average lifespan the economy will be almost 5 times larger in real terms. Now granted it won't be distributed evenly but if you told someone that the country will be 5 times more productive by the time their baby is 80 they'll be impressed.

That's before you consider the fact many countries have not yet experienced the productivity growth of electricity and computers to their full meaning they can achieve much higher than 2% growth.

That's currently impossible (to my knowledge) because API Blueprint encodes far less data than Swagger can. Moving losslessly between formats wouldn't work unless APIB changes...
And you think possible future generations are going to want to lord things over us?

Don't play dumb. They're going to break down crying when they're told what our planet went through right now. It will be like when today's children are made to really look at photos of Auschwitz, or the Syrian Civil War, or guinea-worm cases in Africa, or child labor in coal mines.

Oh wait, some of those things are still present-day problems.
Another rational explanation is that people get comfortable with and forget what their position of power has over people.

That lack of awareness doesn't excuse it.
Socialism did take root in America. As did communism. They were rooted out and killed (often brutally) while the ruling classes pretended that they withered due to lack of necessity and/or interest.

What did you think McCarthyism was all about? Or Ronald Reagan firing the air traffic controllers?
I remember this posted from a year ago. I remember reading it and being grossed out that it was a giant bug and not some sort of 6 legged bear. Why that guy would ever touch that thing is beyond me.

I'm using i3 window manager which allows as much and even more than wmutils.

For example, this simple script allows me for an instant assigning of workspaces to outputs on my dual monitor setup:

i3-msg "move workspace to output VGA1; workspace $1"

i3-msg "move workspace to output HDMI2"

What it does, is it moves current workspace from primary to secondary output and then brings up requested workspace on primary output.

The beauty is that by quickly requesting 2 workspaces I can immediately assign workspaces to both outputs. After some usage muscle memory kicks in and now I can instantly set up whatever I want on both of my monitors without even thinking or fumbling with mouse.
In other words, it's a YAML-like thing, except for much worse coverage for

Announcing Our Worst Passwords of 2015
I reckon the death of marginally medium-to-highbrow low-profitability journalism and the emergence of clickbait only appear to be connected.

Clickbait will appeal to population, spring up new clickbait ventures, and descend down a spiral you describe. Best clickbaiters will emerge victorious, worse clickbaiters will crawl back with their tails between their legs. The first will be profitable, but not excessively so. The latter will have been hopefully funded by rational venture capitalists, not taken on any unreasonable personal risk and carry on with their careers. Nobody will have lost anything, except all the people reading their content.

Medium-to-highbrow journalism is struggling to get by - but that is mostly because it's readership doesn't care enough - or enough of it's readership doesn't care - which is to say their quality wasn't great. It may have cared before, but now there are better options. Some of them are better in the sense that people are lazy and passive entertainment has gained their favour. Others are better options, because they are of even better quality. It's unfortunate, but the thriving high-brow media sector shows that there is a market for quality publications.

Maybe I'm in a delusional bubble, since I live in a country where the average person gets 3-4 long form periodical publications (weeklies/ monthlies) and 20-30% of the population gets their daily newspaper delivered every morning before sunrise.

Do it. At minimum, you'll have some very useful new perspectives.
> I'm sorry, but I still see examples that only explain what majority rules is.

No. What I'm explaining is not how the majority opinion is treated, but how the minority opinion is, namely, it is not blocked. Majority rule could also mean that the minority is barred from voicing their opinions, but that is not the system I'm describing.

> Again, it's an excellent system as long as you agree with the majority.

I don't know about excellent, but it works well well even if you're not. I can't see how society can operate if every opinion -- no matter how fringe -- is given the same prominence.
Well, if you look at the Old Confederacy, you were only really wrong in one account: the assumption that it needs to be a monarchy. These fellas were rather fond of going into battle, it's just that all out war has somehow been avoided since the mid 17th century.
The woes of date input
Personally this brings up a very ridiculous and rather humorous observation on the nature of ToS agreements:

Intelligent people don't bother reading them closely, and the people who have read them often use the information contained in rather stupid ways.

Granted I have spent many hours over the years reading contest / entry rules and ToS type documents, so I'm pretty comfortable picking on myself a bit here and there. Often I've read a very clear ToS and then observed the responsible company basically disregard their own rules and stated processes. Two notable examples were for a Deadmau5 remix project (he 'lost his laptop' and they stretched the contest for a couple months, barely supplied any promised materials, etc) and a Local Motors contest (routinely lied about what they were looking for as judging criteria, then claimed to contact winners on day X to start authorization process, instead vetted winners in advance and then used day X to announce). I've used these experiences to temper my trust of any online engagement or contest, because it's nearly impossible to hold any provider accountable when they're dishonest or just inept.

Antagonizing bothersome people is a form of entertainment [1] from time to time. If there's nothing to be gained from actually being constructive, then being obtuse might be the most worthwhile course of action. YMMV.

All of our hard work convincing people to think of longer passwords has finally convinced the populace to type 'qwertyuiop' instead of 'qwerty' when they're asked to make an account for a service they don't care about.

The best way to improve password quality at least looking at it from the perspective of a user with my habits is to wait to have me make an account until I actually want the service. If I have to think of a password in order to try something out for the first time it's going to be the most inane garbage because I simply don't care/can't be bothered to think of some secure phrase to protect nothing.

Regarding the overriding of a message's design with the theme-based reset: Are bulk precedence messages excluded? As they are more likely to be "designed" (and spam-laden mails using CSS obfuscation are effectively filtered already by Gmail, and thus shouldn't be a primary concern), I would humbly suggest excluding bulk or transactional precedence (changing styles of an invoice could complicate a vendor's life when the "reset" version doesn't look like a standard invoice, for example) emails from this trickery.

Are emails with certain CSS or markup designed for accessibility excluded? If I carefully selected a high contrast design, with heavy stroke-weight fonts because my recipient is vision impaired, or I included specific ARIA landmark roles or other markup, and that markup's semantics are changed when the presentation is changed ... Is Gmelius going to blindly overrule these considered choices?

Can a user choose to exclude senders from having their styles overridden, or themselves change the overriding style sheet? Maybe their contacts list senders don't get overruled?

It's bad enough that ISPs inject themselves into web sites, please don't believe that you are harmlessly changing things for the better. Unless you've got serious design and accessibility knowledge that will ensure emails' design intent or accessibility for disabled users aren't affected, it seems like a needlessly complex and burdensome thing to manage.

Of course, maybe your target audience doesn't care, or knows that accessibility is affected and proceeds anyway. I certainly don't assign malicious intent to the extension, either way. I think it's a nice collection of user styles/user scripts, and if I wasn't already using a different client, I'd at least experiment with your additions (after turning off that vexatious CSS reset, ugh, that kind of thing really bothers me).

TL;DR: Well done. Please consider using bulk/transactional precedence (used by most legitimate commercial senders) and/or user overrides via whitelist or de-facto lists like contacts to exclude emails from having their styles overruled.
Moreover, these were designed by humans with very explicit successes, losses and easily distinguishable outcomes.

This is only true if you assume a TON of contextual knowledge of biology, human culture, civilization, warfare, etc. Why should an AI have any of that?

Look even at an extremely simple game such as tick-tack-toe (or noughts and crosses). How should an AI learn to play this game? Assume it has been given no knowledge of the game beforehand, like a human child shown the game for the first time. How should the AI know who wins and who loses the game? How should it know that the objective is to win at all? The idea that winning is desirable seems to be hard-wired into human beings; why should that be the case for an AI?
But of course! Let me cater to those of your kind:

Ask HN: Tips for a back end/infra developer between jobs?
Hi there. I used to work as a backend/infra developer at a top company in bay area (in tech aspect IMO). I moved to a new place and am now waiting for work authorization.

I want to stay sharp and either learn or work on something. However, for backend stuffs I do not have access to a system to solve problems with, which is inconvenient. I am open to non-backend stuffs too. But I am not familiar enough with other areas to see what is worth working on.

Of course I could try to learn something new and work on a dummy project just for learning, but I hope there is a more exciting option.

Any tips will be appreciated.

If a stream of data stops appearing, then you can alert. You don't need to pre-configure the existence of that stream (although if you might never get data from an object, this obviously is a failure you won't catch.)

Your article is a good one but in my experience, many companies are still many years from being able to implement that kind of database:machine knowledge consistency.
I think you'd still end up with wasted escalator capacity. If the observations in the article hold true in this scenario, you'd have a mostly empty "walking" escalator right next to a packed "standing" escalator.

I think the point is enough people prefer to stand over walking than any dedicated walking space is likely wasted.

-Not responding.

Senior people who have a hard time understanding technology is one thing. A photographer who uses computers for her job but doesn’t get to understand why a software developer’s name appears in some third party services is a totally different issue. The second case isn’t even about using a service or a product. It’s about understanding intellectual property. His name is there because both services wanted to credit him for his work. How fucking difficult is to understand that? In the same context if I see her name on the photographs of the hotel I happened to stay the other night I should contact her in case I want something from the hotel?

I know it sounds elitist but there are people out there who are completely morons. We have to get used to it.

I was one of the first 100k ICQ users. I was working on a similar idea at the time and so tried every chat client that I came across. I was really impressed with ICQ and somehow tracked down the phone number of one of the developers. I called him. He was an Israeli living with his sister in NYC. I think there were three other people involved, all developers. We chatted for a bit about the software and I remember telling him I was impressed.

Any, several couple months later they sold to AOL for something like $250 million. I was living in Chicago at the time and coincidentally the Hancock building had just sold for ~$280 million. I remember thinking that four guys had created as much value in a year as thousands of construction workers and real estate managers had created in three decades.
Part of being a not-idiot is knowing the limits of your own knowledge. If you don't understand how this stuff is put together, fine, that doesn't make you an idiot. But if you just start raging at the nearest available person, rather than doing your research to fill in the gaps in your knowledge, that's an idiot.

Sorry, late reply to this one but I am referring to the firetv - not the firetv stick. I know - stupid product names. The firetv is $99 and has a quad core 2 ghz processor with 2gb of ram.

Every now and again someone falls on hard times and posts in the forum asking for assistance. Last time I remember this happening, the guy asked for short-term contracts rather than handouts. I'm not the richest guy in the world, but I offered one to him, I would have put the fee on a credit card. He never responded to my inquiry. I imagine he was flooded with better offers, I'll admit mine wasn't the greatest. The thread was filled with well-wishes and good advice.

The community here are among the most understanding and generous people I've ever met, even amongst other devs.

I'm sorry, but the people I'm referring to, would not know what to do with that kind of generosity if it was offered to them on a plate. I know these people well, I sympathize with them at the bar, I send them money when they're in jail, and again when they get out. They want self-respect but are too hard-headed to actually work well with others. You have to check your tendency to give because it's like pouring money down the drain.

If your case is as clear-cut as the one in this article you might indeed not need a lawyer but if there's any wiggle room; if it's discrimination and not harassment and the accused is sufficiently important to the company and HR judges that you might not have the energy to file a lawsuit etc. etc. etc. then it's still very easy to end up getting kicked out of the company.
