> 3) Gender-biased job preference due to genetically pre-disposed traits that are influenced by environment/culture: Possibly OK as long as culture has gender-equal expectations and opportunities.

Isn't expecting "gender-equal expectations and opportunities" strange if you agree with "Gender-biased job preference due to genetically pre-disposed traits"?

Why would culture expect a tall thin person and a short muscular person to be equally good at basketball and weightlifting?

I'd like to know what is the downside of using LLVM. Why did they choose to write their own optimizer?

Anyway, the most difficult part of writing the compiler was probably the garbage collector.
If you want to go even faster simply add as much RAM to your machine as your tables will consume when they're all in cache. That too is one of those tricks that makes problems just 'go away', it does still require a periodic flush but that can happen in a totally transparent fashion.

How to Activate HTTP/2 with TLS in NGINX
Not currently. I think it can be largely attributed to header files, for which we currently have no solution in modern C++. Think about what your code would look like if you expanded all #includes of a single file, each containing entire class definitions that need to be parsed.

One of the proposals for the next C++ standard is for modules, which would allow better symbol importing and would largely boost compilation speeds, among other benefits.
Indeed. Though, it's not just about women and men.

The malignant, controversial issues of domestic violence against women, black oppression, the discouragement of male emotional expression, and gender-based wage gaps -- to name only a few -- were never the disease, they were an awful symptom. Instead we must focus on the actual disease -- spousal abuse, racial discrimination, emotional abuse or manipulation, and incomplete or inaccurate wage information, respectively.

I understand that it's impossible to attend to all concerns of all people simultaneously. Governments and organisations need some way to focus what limited resources they have. Though perhaps, just perhaps, instead of taking the easy way out they might determine eligibility for assistance programmes or subjects of public awareness campaigns by the circumstances by which that target is disadvantaged or victimised and not just what's between the target's legs or how dark or not the target's skin is. This is really quite difficult and, in the case of assistance programmes, requires a knowledge and understanding of an individual's situation. As we know, this is remarkably difficult for any government or organisation to do. However, it is absolutely necessary if we are to justify providing these very powerful tools only to victims and not their attackers as well.

Any group which continues to advocate for targets based on criteria over which the target has no control and which does not advocate for others normalises the victimisation of those targets for which they do not advocate. That advocacy is vile and we must address it.

There are also some interesting systems build on top of jails. I'm starting to use iocage, which uses both ZFS and jails to manage and create systems with great ease. Better or worse than Docker? It's different. It does some things docker does not, and vice versa. I'm currently in the evaluation stage, and it's likely I'll be using it to replace hand built jails running PostgreSQL, builds and other single-purpose tasks.
What about Gender-biased job preference cause by people choosing jobs based on finding people with similar life experience?

I often see a preference in particular young adults that pick summer jobs or education based on where they can find co-students/workers that has the same gender, age, color, economical status, and life experience as they. Is this Bad, and if so, how do we eliminate that feeling of familiarity and safety that such choice brings?

There is a yearly study in Sweden that polls peoples priority when looking for job. Highest on the list is often the social environment and co-workers, and the pay (ie, the rational argument for picking a job) is often far low on the list.

The part you are forgetting is that the commercial compiler vendors do the same things.

These issues aren't specific to gcc, rather to the culture of C and C++ compiler writers, regardless how those compilers are developed.

Well, sure, and theoretically a success gets you 2xx and a failure gets you 4xx/5xx.

But there's a layer beneath HTTP as well. If all you get back is a TCP RST, did the request succeed or fail? How about if you get an ICMP unreachable or just a timeout ... should you retry?

So, the Internet being what it is, it is probably not a bad idea to aim for idempotence for the critical bits.

Wow refreshing good news(?), did not know about that. Awesome.
This is quite a harsh analysis but not too far from the truth. The limitations placed on H1Bs and the fact that you are really easier to exploit is one of the main reasons I have chosen in the past to go to a different country for work. If an H1B had the same rights as say a Tier 1 migrant in the UK you would see A LOT less abuse of this system.

A Tier 1 migrant in the UK has total freedom over who they can work for. They are not tied to a particular company and as such can leave for a better job without any administration overhead for them. They also have the ability to start their own company without any restrictions. This places them on equal footing with any local job applicants as they cannot be forced to work for lower than the industry going wage.
I agree that these things get ugly very quickly. Another thing is that you aren't always catching all exceptions; for example, sometimes you are sure that something is in bounds, but the function is still declared as throws(out_of_range) or similar.

Is there a better way to do it, maybe a static analyzer or IDE warning about possible exceptions?
It's being worked on, but it will be a bumpy road if the compiler simultaneously is going to be made more incremental.

They will never care about it.

The very reason C is full of UB is that no compiler vendor wanted to change their compiler dialect when ANSI C was being defined.

So every little detail that deviated from the original C compiler was marked as UB.
Samsung can try to sell me 100TB SSD, and Ill decline thanks.

Their EVO drives suffer from read degradation slowly over long periods of time. See EVO 840, after about a year it was down to 20MiB/s of continuous read speed. An SSD they call that thing. They refused warranty and released a "Speed up flash warez tool now.exe" as help, which all it did was move the data around on the SSD in the background so as to keep up the charade that their SSDs dont suffer from manufacturing/design error.

I find it sad that so much effort is being made to kill, maim and endanger a massive civilization which ultimately has the technology to feed, foster and enlighten everyone .. yet simply chooses not to do so. Makes a simple choice, to continue the bloodshed with investment into utterly useless devices, which only tangible product is destruction.

Imagine if those missiles were being used as a medicine-/food-/book- delivery system, and instead of sitting around in billion-dollar warehouses waiting to be deployed, was being used to find every poor soul on the planet too thirsty, too tired, and too beat to want to learn anyone elses' songs, let alone fight for the survival of their own ..

Except.. it is! By a fairly 'ancient' group of men: "I want to make clear to you is that such memory training techniques are not new. Whether used by actors, students, public speakers or Freemasons, some techniques go back to antiquity. Before the invention of printing, when manuscripts had to be copied by hand, writing materials were scarce and expensive, and many could not read and write, a trained memory was a valuable asset. Thus, ancient orators, aided by teachers of rhetoric, taught techniques enabling orators, politicians, priests, and others to memorize large amounts of material in great detail."

I believe the order of evaluation of function arguments is unspecified (though it might lead to undefined behaviour in some cases, I'm not sure).

---

Signed integer overflow is more interesting. In most platforms, it is very well defined: it either wraps around or it saturates. On one's complement machines I don't know, though I'd expect a deterministic (yet mostly nonsensical) result.

So it might sound reasonable to have signed integer overflow be implementation defined. Except that another reasonable behaviour is to trigger a trap, just like divide by zero. So they put in into the "anything can happen" bucket, that is, undefined. And now we have compilers taking advantage of this, by assuming signed overflow simply never happens. Which sometimes lets them deduce interesting things such as `k<k+1` evaluates to `true` no matter what.

I'm not sure the standard bodies anticipated that. I bet they were thinking something along the lines of "the runtime can assume it never happens, and fail to perform the relevant checks in the name of performance". I'm not sure they originally interpreted this as "the compiler can assume it never happens, and treat the alternative as dead code".

Overall, I see 3 kinds of undefined behaviour: the most innocuous one is when the runtime is allowed to trigger a trap, and crash the program right away. The second one is when the runtime is allowed to not perform the relevant check, and go bananas because of mangled memory or something. This one is more serious, and the source of many security vulnerabilities. The third one is when the compiler can assume the relevant undefined behaviour doesn't even happen, and make lots of interesting deductions from this assumption. This one is mostly insane, though I can understand why it would be nice in some limited cases.

We need 3 buckets for undefined behaviour. "Anything can happen" is too coarse grained.
Been there, done that.

See https://github.com/daniel-kun/omni (look at the little gif in the “Status Quo” section, it will say more than 100 words).

I have the “Code Model” (that is what I call the AST, because there is no Syntax) up for a very little, C-like language, and I have a frontend that can manipulate parts of it. However, these are not yet combined, and I stopped working on it because I am in the middle of transforming my efforts into a Web App. This will allow you to edit and run a code model in your browser, and download a compiled binary when you are finished.
Btw., you will be able to link code elements such as classes to online-ressources such as a task tracker, a diagram, a mindmap, etc. to have the whole ALM process embedded into your code base.

Sounds good? Sounds good to me.

Out of interest, would using your finger to trace along the line you are reading help you to maintain your reading position? This is a well known speed reading technique, so I imagine many people would have this skipping issue when reading above a certain pace.
I disagree with your assessment and have nothing to say about the gender comparison. However, I would posit that it's aggression, and not anger, that is associated with dominance.

Aggression is often subtle and cunning and is often considered a characteristic instead of a transient emotion. Anger, however, when it is felt is typically directly on display.

I can see how, in a societal setting, the ease with which someone who is quick to anger being easily manipulated by someone who is consistently aggressive, in their various emotional states, towards that person. In that sense, one need not be angry or easily angered to dominate a social hierarchy.

I must admit, I am unsure how to properly encrypt phones anyway. Currently I am using a 4 digit PIN on my phone. Surely if an attacker had access to my phone, that would be trivial to crack. It seems unrealistic to use a lengthy PIN (10 digits or more?) to unlock my phone, because I have to do it so often.

What is a good solution? Perhaps sensitive applications have to encrypt their own data, so that I can access most of the phone functionality with the short PIN, but need a longer password to access certain data. No dice with the address book, though :-(

(I don't trust finger prints, because they seem tricky to keep secret - my latest phone also says that fingerprints may be less secure than a good PIN).

jacksondeane has a great answer if you're at a traditional startup who's goal is acquisition or IPO.

Not all small businesses are startups though. If you are working for a lifestyle business, or even a larger company that has relatively slow but steady growth, then the board may decide to issue dividends.

It's important to remember: your equity is worthless, but so is everyone else's. If you trust the company leadership and they aren't just using this as a way to get cheap labor (i.e. they will pay dividends, buy back your stock later, get acquired, or IPO) then it could be a good deal.

My recommendation: if the company isn't a traditional startup and offers fair pay (or will increase compensation down the road if they are early stage now), then add some terms that require the company to buy back your vested shares when you leave. You can set a predetermined price (like 2x the current value), or base it on milestones (time you spent there, revenue milestones, etc). Just make sure that you don't have to sell at that value if they are worth more- you can always hang on to them, negotiate a higher price with the company, or sell them to someone else.
But in five years the cost of fulfilling it is low given falling prices.

I think that bridge has got historical roots and the way we play it is deeply affected by this!
http://thefrejeleriexperiment.tumblr.com/ I think thats actually very true here. They discuss this thoroughly
(First post so apologies if i've not got the rules right). As a dyslexic myself I'd like to know if any other dylexics speed read and if they do, do they do it by default. I hear myself reading and thus the speed is the speed of someone talking. I found https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11162927 interesting and wondered about the crossover with dyslexia. Personally I suspect there are a few different flavours of dyslexia - I don't have words move about for me. What I would love to see is a spellchecker done correctly - remembering arbitrary spellings is hard because they are arbitrary. I want a spell checker that tells me the word is wrong and shows me which letters I should be adding / subtracting to get the right spelling. Autocorrect just holds me back from being a better speller. I'm also convinced I'm a much better developer for having dyslexia - far more leftfield than most.
Which raises a question very similar to the one losteric asked earlier: is the idea that women are more nuturing and more attached to children an archaic, false belief, or a biological fact?

I don't know the answer, but merely asking the question as
losteric did is not sexist.
First, I don't fucking understand, and then, too, don't fucking get it.
Bridge is two games combined into one.

The bidding is a game that you can describe something like:

"Using an open channel, and an open communication protocol, communicate hidden resources in a precise enough way to mutually agree on what can be accomplished with you and your partner's resources combined".

The playing is a game of "Given a set of resources, maximize your results" (if you won the bid) or "Communicate with your partner and together maximize your results given your resources" if you did not win the bid.

Vague as hell, but sure.

The difficulty in the bidding process is based on incomplete information understanding what resources you have combined. There are a number of edge cases that can't be expressed well, so you need to have a collective thought processes to understand where you're going (and your opponents can also disrupt your bidding, so its not a clear channel either).

The challenge in the play is understanding what combination of playing orders will give you the highest odds. There is some amount of memorization (there are some squeeze plays that aren't obvious unless you learn them) but mostly it is pattern recognition, improvisation and odds calculation on the fly.

I'm underselling it - bridge played against relatively equally good opponents and with a good partner that you have played with for some time is imo one of the best games there are.

TL;DR - Universities don't provide employable skills, Companies don't train, therefore people (affluent parents?) pay for training which may lead to employment

Isn't this about the difference between no job and some job? AFAIK a lot of UK students aren't finding jobs and so there are various 'schemes' where (their parents) pay for skills and then maybe they get work. I think there is still a lot of decent paid dev work in London if you can get your foot in the door. I think it's hard to get your foot in the door for your first job if you have no differentiation - this provides differentiation. Of course github projects would be better - but this is probably not targeted at HN readers.

So, I was thinking about reading some books on evolutionary psychology the other day. About how men prefer good looking young women, and how women prefer powerful/rich men with high social status and to a lesser degree tall and muscular men. How men think about sex more often than women. Etc. Personally, I find this stuff extremely depressing. It shows you that most animals and humans are not particularly nice, and it blows up many of the commonly held illusions in our culture, such as the idea that men and women are equal. I wonder, do many people prefer to simply deny these truths, rather than facing them and getting depressed?
