About 3 weeks ago, I was having dinner with my 15 yo daughter at a restaurant in a very high traffic area. We were people-watching and we came to the conclusion that people very rarely chose a mate outside of their own appearance level. If the woman is unattractive, then her mate is unattractive, and the converse. We did our little experiment for about 30 minutes, and did not see any couple where one was significantly more/less attractive than the other.

I don't think the "means of production" is implied. I think it means that the rich deserve to be rich because they can get rich. That it's not just luck that they are rich, but that they know how to get rich. Take it away and they'll get it back. At least that's my take on the saying.

Are you sure the protests are done by any actual minorities, not in the `name of' said minorities?
So your response is that if a cute soundbite is not enough to have me nodding agreeably maybe I am not wordly enough?

You have made the exact same argument that you are defending, it boils down to "you do not understand my world view, if you understood more maybe you would."

I understand not everything fits in a comment box, but when you choose to participate in a discussion then a one line excerpt of "wisdom" is hardly useful. You cannot just imply someone is wrong and not discuss why. This isn't twitter, there is room to get started.

All I ask is some substance above "Have you considered that you might be wrong?"

Because yes, I have considered that, and I am eager to talk about it.

One significant benefit of CPU SIMD is that you also do not need to manage temperamental GPUs and GPU drivers. The CPU programming experience is much nicer, the infrastructure more robust, and you can generally expect some sort of SIMD support everywhere. It is not too hard to support SIMD-with-fallback code (and SIMD will generally just work, if supported). GPU support will often require configuration on the part of the user, especially if the system has several GPUs.

(I say this as a GPU language developer. They are fast, but also a bit of a pain in the ass.)

So what you are, in effect, saying, is that these poor people would be better off if the owner of the trailer park would kick them all out? Then they would not be "exploited".

I am inclined to believe you are a troll, because the distinction between an aggression of violence and a voluntary free exchange on the market is quite easy to make, which in your argument you fail to do.
In what sense is their landlord purveying their misery? They need a place to live. The landlord offers such a place. They enter into a voluntary exchange of domicile for cash, terminable at any time.

Where is the exploitation? Nobody is being tricked or duped. Two people are coming together to exchange something without coercion, intimidation, or trickery.
This seems like a useful service that could get traction, but I think you'll need to find other ways to monetize it than charging companies to track their employees' progress. There are a lot of companies that sadly don't care enough about security to consider paying for a service like this. I would explore other avenues, such as certification (targeted at developers entering the field), referrals to security firms (e.g., consultants or pen testers), and job boards/placement.

Well, GPUs don't have any branch prediction or out of order capabilities, so you need to have a way to keep execution units (mainly floating point units) busy.

A WARP is really nothing more than a way to have work for SMXs (and computational units it controls) at as many clock cycles as possible. You need some way for masking FPU pipeline and memory latency.

> All warps are running in parallel (otherwise you won't get the performance numbers) and each has its own control path (actually each has its own code)

It's not that different from x86 hyperthreading, just with more hardware threads. Pipelined execution units are fed each clock cycle by the core. Multiple FP operations are in flight in parallel, otherwise CPUs won't get the performance numbers either.
I'm not sure if you gain a lot of confidence from me if you build a package manager in go, and the avoid distributing it using go excellent package manager (ie: "go get qpm.io/qpm", done)... ;-)

If you will pardon me from being lazy and not looking at the source, is there a reason for that?

I see a lot of people here don't seem to get the purpose of this -- having played a bit with c++ and pkg-config[1] ... I assume that pkg-config is the kind of software this project tries to improve on? I can see how that might make sense for qt, which already has some properties of a runtime/standard-library (eg: qt string). And/or perhaps copy go's package management for c++/qt?

I suppose I can't really say I've seen the need that this project fills -- but I still wish it well :-)

You are aware that there are server editions of Windows right?

But why is Windows still used anywhere that security is important? Shouldn't "best practices" imply that anything Windows-related be shunned? In 2002 Chairman Bill said "Security is top priority".[1] It's 2016 and the problems seem as bad as ever.

Okay, maybe Linux, OpenBSD, et al. would have as bad or worse problems if they were in such widespread use. But, after so many years, isn't it time to give those other OSes a chance? They might actually be better, not worse.

This article outright says that women still don't agree on attractiveness while men largely do. So, it doesn't bear out its own conclusion. It just goes round and round with different side points.
From my observations women are attracted to power. The kind of power a specific woman is attracted to varies - the spectrum is very broad - it may be creative, physical, mental, financial or just incredibly skilled at something said woman is interested in. Or to exceptional beings in a good way.

I might argue that "inherent" isn't as inherent as it really seems to be, in terms of "monetary value". (But I agree that there is value in the utility of the vehicle, and that leads me to the second point.)

Indeed in this sort of anarchy I might go so far as to argue that property should also be redistributed. While this sounds like stealing, if we might be a little crazy and "open-minded", we might think in the sense that some people always unfairly make more money, redistributing their property isn't as much "stealing" as "making fair". Of course, this is all in a crazy theoretical situation. :)

I was mugged in Buenos Aires, IRL. It was ten years ago. I went to a club alone. I bought beers for everyone at $.33 a beer. Someone sucker punched me when I left and riffled my pockets. They took my wallet and watch getting a total of 10 pesos which was my cab fair to the apartment I rented. They left my keys which had the address and apartment number written on the key chain, which in hind sight wasn't too smart. Is there a game where people can learn not to talk to strangers?
Yes, it is the same in Prague. I've met my current girlfriend of one year in Prague and I don't believe that I am an exception. Many of the girls were looking for a long term partner. Maybe it's just about selection. If you are looking for a hookup you will surely find it there, but it is no problem to find long term partner instead.
Don't get me wrong, i'm not saying it's not plenty profitable. I only mentioned the higher rents thing to illustrate the point that the landlord does not have an interest in keeping these people poor.

This article is suggesting that these landlords are causing poverty, but then it goes on to not even try to make that case. They may be making money from poor people, and they may even not provide them the level of service they are legally required to, but this article makes no actual case for them causing or being any real part of the poverty cycle. Unless of course you think that the mere fact of asking that their rents be paid is the problem - and if you do, fine, but you're then tasked with proposing an alternative way of housing these people.
How does a Prometheus Counter work?
Of course people are morally right to avoid taxes! Only an idiot would act otherwise. You simply organize your affairs so that you comply with the fiscal rules and

"No man in the country is under the smallest obligation, moral or other, so to arrange his legal relations to his business or property as to enable the Inland Revenue to put the largest possible shovel in his stores. The Inland Revenue is not slow, and quite rightly, to take every advantage which is open to it under the Taxing Statutes for the purposes of depleting the taxpayer's pocket. And the taxpayer is in like manner entitled to be astute to prevent, so far as he honestly can, the depletion of his means by the Inland Revenue"

-- Lord Clyde in the case of Ayrshire Pullman Motor Services v Inland Revenue [1929]

As to the objection to low tax locations:

'It’s pure tax protectionism: governments don’t produce widgets, so they are all in favour of free trade in widgets; but they do produce taxes, so they want to keep out the competition. Low-tax jurisdictions act as a safety valve that makes it harder for politicians to oppress their citizens with crippling taxes'.

In the EU, merely trying not to buy goods subject to VAT is a tax avoidance measure!

This is full of great advice. After a brief skim I think I agree with everything except the advice on mutability.

Haoyi says "if you are actually modeling something which changes over time, using mutable [variables] is fine". I think this is absolutely wrong. You should even use immutable variables to model things which change over time (after all, almost everything does). Only use mutable variables when performance means you can't get away without them.

Other than that the guide is pretty much how I would program (as a Haskell developer, rather than a Scala one).

> This obsession for shielding the public from direct access to their source material.

I don't think reporters and news orgs go out of their way to "shield" people from source material when it is publicly available and relatively easy to link to.

For example, there's DocumentCloud [1] (from which Backbone and Underscore came out of) is a news project that started out as a project collaboration between New York Times and ProPublica...think of it as Scribd, except free for news orgs, and geared towards open access and making source documents more visible.

That said, there are plenty of times when news orgs should be linking but don't...but a lot of that is out of carelessness, CMS limitations, and/or incompetence -- from various angles. For example, some government websites do not have direct URLs (that don't require some kind of cookie to be set)...such as the individual documents in this U.S. Senate Financial Disclosures database [2]. Ideally, a journalist could figure a way around it, or hand assemble the scanned pages (which are stored as GIFs)...but that's a lot of production work to ask from people who typically have almost zero web production skills beyond knowing how to use a browser.

Then there's the classic case of Reuters, one of the biggest news organizations in the world, having a CMS that wasn't designed to incorporate hyperlinks (among other HTML features I imagine) [3]

A lot of tech savvy news orgs these days will upload raw data dumps to their S3 servers. And some even create news applications around that data to make it more accessible. One controversial example that comes to mind is when the LA Times fought to get teacher ratings data and then built an online database, which included their value-added interpretation. Teacher ratings are extremely controversial, nevermind any proposition to do value-adding, and the LA Times critics went so far as to blame a teacher's suicide on their database [4]

Those teacher scores were public records. While not everyone agrees with how the LAT chose to augment them [5], they did show the raw data for each teacher.

If the LAT faced such pushback from the government in just getting the records, and then such outcry from the teachers unions when they published those records, for public records...then I imagine the pushback against a news org that publishes a data dump of illegally obtained private data is going to be quite harsh.

In the Panama Papers scenario, it seems that most of the records deal with private persons, many of whom aren't interesting to the public and who are too numerous for the journalists to do individual checkups on. And what they're doing is not illegal. So the ICIJ has made the right moral call, IMO, in not just throwing everything out there.

Well, okay. If you live in a place with a "failure of government", do you wait for the government to get fixed? Until then let them eat cake?
No, genuinely funny. Thinks on their feet, actually holds frame. People who are bad at dating hear the same line delivered by someone attractive and unattractive and think the difference is their face: in reality, the attractive person is comfortable, playful and not concerned with one interaction not working out. The unattractive person is uncomfortable, is concerned about whether a single stranger finds them attractive or not.

It appears that most of the things listed on the first 10 pages of google hits are related to physical look (height, tooth, hands, etc.) and some is related to financial background and taste (clothing for example). I am not sure what does holistic mean in this context though. In my experience women attracted to physical look and self confidence the most, yet I know that sample is not representative. It would be nice if you could back up your comment with data.

Ask HN: How to deal with low quality merge requests?
We have a recurring problem with badly formatted code with stupid variable names, disgusting doc blocks, etc. One developer in particular tries to clean up his code line by line, wasting reviewers' time.

We're supposed to be in constant crunch mode, so coding guidelines are rarely written (they do exist however), and most office conventions are shared in verbal communication.

If the reviewers don't report problems on each and every line ("unneeded empty line", "clear up type hint", etc.), it remains inconsistent, ugly, or buggy.

I wonder how experienced engineers help their peers understand this problem better.
2008 Bloomfield i7 can do 8 FP ops per clock cycle. Recent Intel CPUs can do 32 FP ops per clock.

Bloomfield era you could have 4 (?) cores per CPU socket. Now Broadwell EP has 22.

Here you have an apparently charming man who knowingly caused a great deal of violence and human misery with his trade.

His masterstroke[1] was having the audacity to blame the laws of the time for the violence in his trade - and getting people to agree that, yes, he has no responsibility for his actions, it's the laws that should be blamed!

And that's without even touching on his business associates; how you can call yourself Mr Nice while teaming up with the IRA and still look at yourself in the mirror every morning is beyond me.
