This is an interesting issue for young people today. I'm too old, but young people will have "fun" dealing with land west of the Mississippi being in a massive overpopulation bubble, and folks east of the Mississippi having more water than we know what to do with now, and with climate change we're supposed to have even more water leading to some interesting infrastructure problems.

For a bit less than 50 years I've heard continuous and constant boosterism that the burbs will migrate back into the city center. No really, this time we're serious about it, etc. Its a cliche now. However a much more interesting migration, is over the next generation or two, most of the west half of the USA will have to migrate back to the east half, assuming they want to drink water or grow plants. Its going to be interesting to watch, at least for today's younger kids to watch.

Note that the land will support some people. In 2030 the west is not going to be empty, any more than it was empty in 1830. It just won't have as many people as now.
Masculine professions: fireman, wall street stock trader, police officer, navy seal... and software developer?

No, this still doesn't make sense. Professionals can and should be courteous to one another. Software developers can, too.
Wow, those are terrible. Maybe it would be fair to say that affronts against programmer workers are varied in severity, but they exist, nonetheless.

I might've gotten down votes, but at least I started a conversation XD
The process might seem more complex initially but think
of it like this: 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

Annndddd we're done - its easy to make a pull request from a branch; this person has no idea what they're doing.

In addition, the new GitHub code review tools address most (if not all) of the stated reasons for this switch. And in my opinion, GitHub's ease-of-use, alongside it being an incredible single point of reference, far outweigh any clunky other tools I've used (like Gerrit).
I'm really not convinced that having your eyes on the road and your attention on your fingers is safer than glancing away. I think it's probably right, but I'd like something better than just "it's obvious!"
I think we are going to continue disagreeing. You seem to enjoy Finance so I would encourage you to learn more about it for your own benefit.
I agree with mangeletti's first sentence completely, but I have no comment on his appeal to nature.

Democracy is one of the most insidious forms of government, since it gives the people the illusion of choice and the "we made this decision together" mindset. The problem is that a bare majority of voters (not population), can force its will upon all others in society, bringing down the hammer of government arbitrarily on any group it chooses.

Look how politicians who win a decisive presidential race in the electoral college go into office with a self-proclaimed "mandate from the people" to change things. Now his every action cannot be scrutinized because "we" chose this course. Ridiculous.

And don't get me started on wars waged by democracies...
> It should not be difficult to be a nice person all the time.

There's a huge difference between most of the time and all of the time.

I'm a strong advocate of empathy in the workplace, but part of that is recognising that sometimes people are just in a bad mood.

What Pipeline Automation Can Do for You (Part 2)
The gaps between primes are easily produced using two operations on a list of numbers, mirroring and partitioning.

Each prime generates a spacing sequence to find future primes, each prime is effectively casting a new periodic wave function. 2 produces a wave that hits all even numbers. 3 produces a wave that hits every 6 numbers (2 already gets everything else.) 5 does every {20,10}, etc...

You can see the process of generating the sieve waveform, or more technically, the prime gaps, here:

http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/311610/modified-eule...

Look at the 2nd answer, it explains the process. Remember, all prime numbers do, is cast a waveform onto the existing sieve waveform. Just chaotic interference. Division as an immediate reaction to primes is moreso because primes are taught pretty poorly. As mystic nuggets. Rather than chaotic interference.
(edit: typo gone, thanks for the interesting write-up)
It would be great to know how many companies have already incorporated before applying to YC, and what their structure looks like (C-Corp vs LLC, split of ownership, etc.). Myself and different friends have started our own companies recently and we're going through this sort of thing for the first time, and we wish we had better information. When YC visited NYU in the Fall I asked a similar question and was told that registering as a C-Corp through clerky was the way to go, but it was already too late for us (we're an LLC). Now I'm curious what it takes to go from LLC to C-Corp, or if it's even a big deal this stage in the process.
> The root causes are probably unrelated. But how easy is to obtain a gun definitely correlates with relative increase in muggings with a gun.

That's true. I also think that it's likely that a gun is a better defence against mugging than is, say, a knife or one's fists. A small woman can shoot a large attacker, when her fists aren't going to be much use and a knife wound may not stop him until after he's already killed her. Having a gun doesn't mean that one will be able to draw and use it, of course; indeed, one may just end up giving one's attackers another weapon.

But I think the odds are better armed than unarmed.
Thanks for your hard work. I used your project for a little while and it was very helpful.

Yes, physical currencies are anonymous. However, it doesn't seem very practical to hold onto the physical currency in the amount that these guys are hiding.

Heh, as if. In my plane, the flaps, spoilers, and landing gear levers are all inches apart, have similar colors, and similar shapes.

But yes, clearly they should be. But there's a pretty big difference between critical flight controls and controls for the music or HVAC.
The dishwasher etc is not part of producing the drinking water. It's just a way of consuming it.

But I get your point about the entire construction of the well. And the drilling rig, say it drills 500 wells in its life span. Then you have to consider the water that went in to building the rig, divided by 500. And the water that goes in to disassembly and recycling. And the water that went in to building the drill rig factory. And that went into building the tools that were used to build the factory. Etc.
Attention is a funny thing. Talking on a phone with your eyes on the road can take quite a bit of our attention. Its not about the eyes - glancing here or there is what we do all day. Its the mental model in our head - more than one is hard. Imagining the person on the other end of the phone call is a mental model - and it can push the 'road model' right out.

So it depends on how much cpu it takes. Not just where we're looking.
That's nonsense. It's native to the Middle East, from the Levant to Pakistan. I see no good reason why growing it should be problematic in California. They either use it as an excuse to get more water for other crops, or they're doing something very wrong, though I have no idea what it could be.
9 Disruptive Lifestyles in 2016
Sure. But would it make sense to get women interested in medicine by downplaying how difficult it is?
I can appreciate that you had a great environment with an older brother and father that encouraged you to participate in technical activities with them, but not everyone has the same environment.

I think the sentiment the author is sharing is that a lot of women feel social pressures to appear outwardly successful, popular, etc, and this creates a very difficult situation where its perceived that asking a question that might make you sound stupid causes you to lose social status.

This seems like a very tangible fear that a lot of women face, and I admire how she has conditioned herself to overcome this fear and it has helped her increase her knowledge and abilities.

It's awesome that you've had a better experience, but I'm positive that many women have dropped out of CS curriculum because of some of these social factors. Recognizing this and trying to improve the state of things is a great goal to have.
How to Integrate PayPal as Payment System in Website
You have to define "used". To have drinking water, you need HUGE volumes of other water to dilute and clean it.

Only a small fraction of it is actually drawn for drinking, but rest still has to be there. So does that rest count or not?
At some point, the infrastructure is a given. Then its all about marginal costs?

Unclear how much you know about the topic, but there are a number of ways to desalinate salt water, including just mixing non-toxic saltwater with drinkable freshwater; that said, it requires 31 liters of freshwater to make one liter of saltwater drinkable.

Normal saltwater has a salt concentration of 3.5% and to be drinkable that must be reduced to 1000 ppm (parts per million); which is to say, say for 100 liters of saltwater, you'll lose at least 3.5 liters just to reclaim the freshwater itself.

Beyond that it'll depend on the system how much additional volume is lost in the desalination process; quick Google finds some systems that lose 20% of the volume per unit processed.

Lastly, your reference to energy consumption brings up an example of additional sources of water lose. Water used to cool systems, water used to clean systems, leaks/waste, etc.
The PDF article said that about 20% of the water footprint is from packaging. Bottled water has to be close to that.

Go already has a few microframeworks. What I think it needs is a fat one. It seems the idea of fat frameworks doesn't resonate well with go developers but I don't understand why.

Django is the only reason I stick with python today for anything that will have more than five pages. I want form handling, security features such as XSS, CSRF baked in, debug tools such as debug-toolbar and I want to have a basic login feature done for me.

10 Tools and Services Essential for Your SaaS
Most of the people I've talked to in my age group (mid twenties to early thirties) adamantly avoid taking a taxi whenever possible. The reasons why have been beaten to death by now, but they include:

- Uber's show up on time, and I can track them using an app. Before Uber, I had to call a cab company, hope someone would answer, be told I'd have to wait 45 minutes to an hour, then hope the taxi would actually show up.

- For almost all of the Uber's I've taken, if the car wasn't on the newer end, it was at least clean. I've never been in a taxi and thought "Wow! They really take care of these things." I usually get out feeling like I need a shower.

- The rating system (which goes both ways, your driver rates you as well) helps ensure that they want to provide a good experience for you. Taxi drivers have no motivation - most people won't call a hotline to report and issue vs just choosing a star rating on their phone.

- The price is reasonable, and I get an estimate before leaving. I hate how taxies just go without any idea of what you'll be paying. It's even worse when you're in a city you don't know, and you're unsure if they're taking the best route.

- Most taxi drivers I've met have been incredibly rude and impatient, and then expect a 20% tip. On top of that, I've had a bunch of them lie and say they don't accept credit cards after the trip is complete, even though there is a sign that says they are legally required to. "The machine is broken" isn't a valid excuse.

- With Uber, I don't have to worry about them awkwardly watching me decide how much to tip, it's included in the price. I don't even have to worry about figuring out how to pay! I just get out and go and it's automatically charged to my card.

I'm surprised when I hear that people are in favor of saving taxies. Yes, Uber and Lyft should probably be a bit more regulated. But taxies were doing so many things almost comically wrong for so long, it's not surprising a competitor has come along and been successful.
These left me with an uneasy feeling of someone who is oblivious to their blind spots and has unwittingly placed themselves in difficult situations with little self-awareness. I suspect the fault for many of these incidents - if we are looking to place blame - lies largely with the author. Not getting a pay raise when everyone else on the team gets one? This may raise a red flag about management but it certainly raises a red flag about the employee in question. Going back to a meeting after being fired? Cringeworthy - it's something you may do early in your career before you know better, but this is clearly a senior dev who still lacks some fundamental understanding of workplace conventions and interpersonal communication.

I wonder if the author was raised in a very different culture, either because he or his family was of foreign origin, or he was simply brought up with an atypical set of cultural cues and values. These can be very difficult to uproot, and may explain the sense of bumbling through professional situations that the article conveys.

You've run into the "it's okay when we do it!" mentality here from the poster you're responding to. In their mind, stereotyping, prejudging, and wildly generalizing is completely and totally wrong, a crime on the level of hate speech and misogyny, but they will engage in stereotyping, prejudging, generalizing, and demonizing groups that they disagree with because in their mind they're fighting the good fight, and only bad people would disagree with them.

>Right then and there, I said loud, confidently, and clearly so everyone in the room could hear me, “I DON’T UNDERSTAND.”

The room became instantly quite and the T.A. had a look on his face as if a spell that had been cast over him was broken. After that his whole demeanor changed. He became eager to help us. Not only that, but other people in the room jumped in to help explain and even the girl grew visibly more comfortable and started asking questions. Everyone became so eager to help – it was rowdy, exciting – people left and right were neglecting their own work to try to help us, it became a major group effort and everyone was so passionate to jump in and help.

The field may be "male-dominated". That does not mean it is unfriendly to women, generally speaking.

There are a great many total dickheads in the real world, but in the real world, it is much more difficult to mask your gender than on the internet.

For a good account of total dickheads (in a nerdy subculture, no less) in meatspace, see http://latining.tumblr.com/post/141567276944/tabletop-gaming... If this were online, I bet the author would have assumed a gender-neutral / default-to-male pseudonym in a heartbeat.
We tried Gerrit. We ran as fast as possible away. It seemed to hate merge commits, and would hang up often. I'm not sure if it's changed at all, but I think the only option was to review every commit individually inside of a branch. It seemed to really be pushing us towards squashing a branch and pushing that up.
So lets pretend you're the older developer in this case. You've been tasked with setting up this server and you have a way you like servers to be set up. You and your team will be working on it, you want it set up just so.

One morning before you arrive at work, junior dev Fred -- a nice kid, but definitely junior -- gets ahold of the server and starts monkeying around. It's not his job. It's not his server. And now you're either going to have to wipe the server and start fresh or get a debrief about what he has and has not done. And Fred's junior, as noted, so he doesn't always know the best way to do things (although, like many junior developers, he sure thinks he does!). So now you, senior dev, have this wild card that you just don't want to deal with because you're busy and doesn't Fred have other tasks on his plate? Why is he jumping all over your damned server?

So you snap at Fred. "Get away from that -- it's mine, not yours. Please do your job and leave me to mine."

Doesn't seem out of line to me.
I've not found anything that can't be accomplished with npm run.

It isn't obsolete. Webpack just reduces task runners even more, since webpack takes care of taking your source, copying your source to your build/dist/whatever directory, minifying everything, creating hashes in filenames, being able to update html with those hash names, etc.. Basically, if you can use `import` on a file in Webpack 2 or `require` in either Webpack 1/2 you don't need Gulp/Grunt to do that work.

I personally work on things that still need other aspects of the task runners.

I knew Lyft was the underdog in NYC (compared to Uber), but they seem to be in real trouble according to this data. In my personal experience, my Uber drivers have seemed better trained than my Lyft drivers in NY, so for the most part I only take Lyft if they are offering me a special promotion. For example, I've had Lyft drivers who seemed confused with how to use their own app.

The author mentions this as being a feature of Gerrit in the post.
I've used gerrit and it's much better than github/bitbucket. My knock on gerrit is it requires one "very good" git person to be on the team however it makes it very easy to support a larger team and do cleaner code reviews.
"the majority of the US population has at least one close friend or family member they'd like to visit, who isn't connected by one of the supercharger-served routes."

What's the basis for this statement? I mean, sure, if you live in a poorly covered area like Texas, or in an area that has good coverage but is near the edge like Chicago, you're likely to have places to go that aren't covered. But that's not where most people live.

Freight and car traffic are so different that I really see no point in even bringing up that map.

Note that I'm not in any way disbelieving your personal situation. If you live in Dallas and you ever go anywhere that isn't north or south then clearly the network is not suitable for you. I'm not trying to argue otherwise. I'm just arguing that most of the country isn't like Texas.

Your comment doesn't contain an answer to my question.

Having entities in different countries for easier interface with local customers and authorities is very different from transferring ownership or large chunks of money to a company registered in the British Virgin Islands, population 28,054.

Maybe "it's just mechanics" in some countries where corruption is low, but the world is very corrupt and offshore companies are tools which allow for this corruption to happen.
How much water is used for a bottle of sparking water shipped to the local shop? Anyone has an idea?
I get your bitter cynicism, but as someone who has worked with industrial processes, this is exactly how we quantify things.

The world is insanely inefficient, and those inefficiencies are REAL even if we have been that inefficient since prehistoric time. All of the points you mention are actual opportunities for improvement, and a 1% reduction in any of them would amount to an enormous savings in water use, fuel use, increase in long term profit, etc.
