This isn't the data, it looks like data about the stories ICIJ have decided to publish, which, having led with a bunch of anti-Putin stories in our media despite Putin having no direct involvement, totally relegates to zero their reputation for doing a balanced job of handling the data.

Just give us the unredacted data otherwise we'll presume it is only being used as an instrument of propaganda, because you've already used it that way

Hi,

Author here. I'm glad there are people like you who share the same view. :)

I do admit that I haven't explained things well in my blog post, but some comments here that suggest being aggressive/rude is okay and/or justifiable as long as there's another side of the story is really an eye opener for me and I'm somewhat shocked... Is being kind and decent to another fellow coworker (and a human being for that matter) too much to ask? :\
Well done, been using Grunt since end of 2012

I'd be interested to see how successful way2ride has been (as in, how has the percentage of taxi trips originating from way2ride changed over time?)

way2ride has been advertised heavily in NYC and offers most of the same features that the Uber app does: seeing nearby cabs, hailing, seeing the cab's location, paying through the app. On the occasional trip where public transportation isn't sufficient, I've used it as an alternative to Uber and had good experiences. In particular, it's useful to dodge surge pricing and in finding a ride in places where Uber drivers don't hang around.

You should be a spin doctor, seriously.
This is happening because unlike almost every other developed nation the US has a worldwide tax system. Almost every other nation has a territorial tax system. The rest of the world with their territorial system taxes income earned within that country, the US rather taxes income worldwide, regardless of where it is earned.

For example, if a British company earns income in Germany, its pays German taxes on its German income. But if a US company earns income in Germany it pays both German taxes and US taxes.

This is not about avoiding tax on profit earned in the US, after the inversion companies continue to pay US taxes, they just don’t pay taxes on income earned outside of the US.
Modern dishwashers are in fact very frugal with water. The ones sold here typically take about 10 litres (2.5 gal) for a main program.

For some of us, it's irritating of course: the program takes a long time due to the attempts to save water, and we have no shortage of clean water here whatsoever, so time is wasted to save water which could be wasted.
There would be something to see, if we could come up with a "solution" to this problem that actually had a chance of working. So, no.

I have used Gerrit in my previous team and it did not worked so well. Hanging vetos on -2 are not that nice when you have to push feature forward, like instead of blocking it someone else could just fix it, by the time you talked person who put -2 to change it to -1. But maybe with more mature team it would not be a problem.

Actually seems in line to me as a learning moment for the junior dev. It's much like when I get a new puppy who wanders over to the the older dogs food bowl. The older dog gives a slight growl and the puppy has learned not to do that again, and one hopes in the general case (not all dogs are quite that nice).

Hopefully as a junior dev this person learned a couple things here. First, that they do not know everything and second think how their actions will impact the team.

"If you add a new member to your team, they would have to fork the repositories on GitHub, clone them locally, make the changes, push to their own fork and then create the pull request."

You don't have to do this with Github. Just clone directly to your local machine. Also, you don't have to use git flow when using Github. I think git flow seems to be the real culprit of the symptoms you have identified.
Hi Fred,

This is a challenging post, you seem to be getting knocked around with it quite a bit here. Hang in there. As you point out in your since published comment, treat this (and all your vignettes) as a learning experience. To help start you on your path for this post, I'll offer my 2 cents.

First, try to write posts with positive messages (this one has an overwhelmingly negative tone despite your intentions). Perhaps recast the examples as learning experience. Think long and hard about the situations you describe and try to learn something. Then write a post on what you learned. Life's hard. Help others learn from your interactions (and learn yourself).

Second, keep your issues to the real ones. It's okay to make a long list like this in a brainstorming session while a post is in the early draft stage, but try to trim down the stories to a handful of substantive ones (each with a lesson and reason for being there).

In general, it seems you've been in some stressful situations (for yourself and others). People (even the most vaulted professionals) get cranky when things aren't going well - by whatever definition of well is for the context).

You do seem to believe that transparency is a fundamental right. Its not. Noble, sure, but not ubiquitous or even always a good thing. Many times management will shield their reports from the disaster unfolding above them. Some times this is a good thing. It might be very distracting if everyone had perfect knowledge. I find its very important to have a good working relationship with your manager. Understand what motivates them and deliver on the tasks you are asked to (things can get messy when you "help" others (especially at the expense of your assigned tasks)).

Much more to say, but I need to go deliver on some of my tasks now. Hang in there. Good luck. Write a second post with a positive spin on the major things you learned from this one.
The site is using Segment to assign registrations a userId. Segment is used for analytics, yes, but it's really a canonical tracker for everything from identity to logging.

Assigning userId client-side even before you hit the actual user database enables data to be sync'd anonymously across services with userId rather than email address. If you block this from running, yes, you block it from working.

In short, your ad-blocker is being overzealous.

"Masculine professionals" are people, and should always be prefaced with a qualifier like "some" or "many." The original statement is certainly overly general in saying that all masculine professionals (I read it as all "real men" <ha!>) act the same way when women and children aren't in the room.

"Masculine professions" are things that people do, and we can definitely challenge almost all generalizations here. Unfortunately, the person you're replying to never mentioned professions.
Software developers are at the top end of pay in our current economy. They often have (or easily can have) the flexibility of working remotely. There is a high demand for them and an acute shortage of supply. For the foreseeable future the chance of being unemployed is effectively zero. On top of all this, two thirds of them do not need to invest the capital or the lost opportunity cost in a college education. The remaining third probably doesn't either.

In this situation, if employers aren't the ones being treated poorly then something is wrong. And any developer that is complaining needs to have a better understanding of the power that they have and how to use it.

You've over simplified and misunderstood. If a UK company bills a German company for goods, tax is paid wherever the profit is made, which would be in the UK. If a British company sends a consultant to a German company for a month, the tax is paid where the profit is made, which again is in the UK.

If a UK has a German subsidiary, that's different.

I earned perfect scores on my CS classes at a large state university. I was also a T.A. for a computer architecture lab where students had to write 68000 assembly. (Aside: when I took that class, the T.A. was a woman.)

Now this was the mid-90s and there were not many women in my classes. I search my memory for the experiences described in this article, of T.A.'s mocking students, of getting frustrated with students, of "dumb" girls. I just can't remember anything like that. There were a handful of students like myself for which certain subjects just clicked. And there were a handful that it seemed like they just were never going to get it. But for most, it was this middle ground of having to work hard to understand. Not everyone of my classes was a breeze either. I must've pulled my hair out in my compilers class three times over.

Mostly, this just sounds like the struggle of being a student. But I guess everyone focuses their experiences through a certain lens. I hope I'm not criticising here... mostly just thinking out loud.
I guess it depends on where in NYC.

Currently staying in Manhattan - why wait for an Uber if you can simply flag down a cab?

And all of them have the CC terminals in them now, when did you last get one without?

My last Uber experience here was shit btw, the location near the WTC memorial was slightly off, the driver would not drive over where I told him to - I had my whole family incl. a toddler in a stroller. Fuck him then, flagged down a cab and off we went.

YMMV
Popper.js: The definitive (tooltips) positioning library
I guess I'm still not following.

If I sync a git repo from random location, I have the files to make that package. However none of the documents that aren't explicitly in the git repo are provided. With Git[hub/lab/...], this is metadata outside of the repo. Ideally, I want and need that as well. If there's an issue, I can research it quickly and see if it applies to me... Or if I'm a maintainer, I can make a solution offline and then merge it when online.

I understand that it may not be the perfect tool to include everything... but it does seem to fit the bill. Fossil does seem to do this correctly. I'll have to look into it.
I have no intention nor interest to achieve propaganda, this is just a snapshot of the data released in the ICIJ website,and was made for a data analysis course I am working on. If you want the full data, my guess is you have to wait for ICIJ to do so.
Its the same result. Compilers only need to produce the correct behavior. Algos arent part of that when optimizations take hold.
We've been using it since May 2015. Vetos work well for us. We push new releases every week and often there are dependencies between the reviews (front-end waiting for a vetoed back-end review) which results in them being a non-issue (discussions happen frequently and updates are coming in quickly).
For comparison, a big-box purchased reverse osmosis home setup could have up to a 4:1 waste water ratio.
Indeed. Hopping onto a server unasked and installing packages is not being a "team player." It's being a busybody. In this situation being a team player would've been approaching the person actually tasked with the job, asking if there's anything you can do to help, and taking yes or no as an answer.

Fred, if you're reading this:

When I read this article, it's not very flattering towards you. The attitudes expressed by your colleges imply a high amount of frustration.
Are countries with a territorial tax system hurt by businesses leaving in order to seek out a lower tax rate? That seems to be the argument the US government is making - although I haven't seen any data - anyone have a link?
I've definitely had some of these moments. But I always try to remember that I am the common factor in all of my bad relationships.
This is what I don't get.

Do authors of these build tools actually sit down for a couple of months looking at things like Makefiles that have been around forever, perhaps even Maven, etc. Take all these things together and go "This is what sucks in all of them, and here's how we can do it better" and still cater for all the use cases that these tools are brilliant at.

It's like there's no thought put into these tools and nothing is built on computer science foundations. Like why are you using Json as the syntax? Ant build files were an abomination and Json really isn't offering anything better (actually way less), except a slightly more readable syntax for trivial use cases.
You can, it just requires you to import the cert and use some pretty gnarly UI. I didn't mean to imply you couldn't use it from the browser, just that it was much less likely than curl + we rely on the cert for figuring out your account and not an API key.
It's p2p ebay with selling and transaction fees close to zero instead of the 13% you would have to kick back to ebay on a typical transaction.
I know they've talked about implement something similar. Since the Open letter to GitHub a lot have changed and I wouldn't be surprised to see GitHub support most of what Gerrit has (and more) in a near future.
I've been in NYC for a week, and I've used all three services to get around when needed. Taxi is actually by far the easiest to get a ride on. The reason is being on the correct side of the street and for the car to be traveling in the direction you're headed is crucial.

Grabbing a Lyft or Uber may commit a driver to having to turn around the block, which can take several minutes, and in that time, you could have hailed half a dozen taxis.

Right, so you can now buy a burger off of the dollar menu, which costs approximately 1/7.25 hrs of your labor. When you earn $15/hr, you now have to work 19.5/15 hrs to earn a burger. Yes, it's a higher quality burger, but you can get a higher quality burger for the same amount of labor at minimum wage in the US, and still have the $1 option for those who want it.
I suggest you have a read of this:

> …raise the awareness that kinder communication styles might be better received.

Hear hear! I've always wondered why commonly the same attitudes and communication styles that developers employ to each other would be considered shocking if they were employed to a significant other to say the least.

Communication comes up a lot in relationships but rarely in the work place. It is only recently that psychological safety became a known term thanks to Google.
Minimum wages proposed by unions are designed to destroy the job prospects of non-union workers. It is pure self-interest on the part of the union.

Somehow I don't think the author ever expected this to be number one on HN. Having read the article I'm not going to critique this. I do think it shows many people up vote articles based on the title alone. I love HN and find a lot of news here I can't get anywhere else. However, I do feel it's time to revise the voting system and question why great articles at certain times of the day fall through the cracks while other not so great articles can rise to the top.

> I rarely gave a moment's thought to my peers' gender because I was thinking about the important part, what I was actually doing: and for the most part, save for a couple of sexist teachers (who were - an even bigger crime - totally useless at the subject they were trying to teach) nor did they. <

Something I have been coming around to understand. There are two kinds of people.

a) People who live their lives for themselves

b) People who live their lives for approval and satisfaction of others

It's really important for people who live their lives for others that they get approval and validation from others. Without it, they won't ever take risks, they wouldn't hold strong opinions on anything (because that carries the risk of being wrong).

You don't care about women engineer/programmer/scientist or anything because you didn't care about living a life whose end goal is approval from other people.

However, those individuals who do live like this, something is worth doing only if others are doing it too because it means a general validation from the others.

The problem of seeking other people's validation exists everywhere, across all genders. The solution is to teach people to not live second hand lives.

I use gerrit daily. It's a good tool once you learn it but as an end user I find it has some usability issues. I would very much recommend it though for teams. You'd need someone to instill good code review culture in your team. It dictates the +1/+2 review flow so you have to adhere to that for it to be a natural fit.

I've worked a variety of jobs over my life, and I have to say that I find it funny the degree to which software developers whine over how difficult they have it. Software development is one of the cushiest jobs around. Indoor work; no heavy lifting; little to no customer contact; little to no shift work (unless you're in ops); generally intellectually stimulating; easygoing dress code; generally get to be constructive and creative; very well paid; self-trained is an entirely viable way to get that paycheck (not a lot of self-trained lawyers out there...); generally easy office life; generally get the better computing equipment; conferences are frequent perks of the job; you're not on your feet for your whole shift unless you choose to be; occasional option to work from home; skills are in demand... the list goes on and on.

Every time I see one of these articles, I wonder if the author ever spent much time working a menial job.
