I forget where I heard it, but I recall a saying something along the lines of, "The two most meditative things a person can watch are fire, and other people working." I think this also kind of falls into that category.

PS if anyone knows the actual source of this saying please do comment
You're dramatically underestimating how many people will fail to report a crime (especially a sexual assault). Besides, even one crime is one too many. You can't assume the driver is going to act in a totally rational manner, they will commit crimes (and we've already seen Uber drivers committing crimes).
Agree that WeWork is overpriced junk. 2 bathrooms on each floor for like 200 people. Should be so easy to beat these bozos as all they are really selling is image.

Okay so its just theft because when I get my check I get a receipt which tells me the amount of theft which occurred from each pay check. The violence part of this is important because without violence or some force which compels me to pay it, the payment is then voluntary. If I could stop paying it then it would not be theft. Until I can personally decide not to pay it is THEFT. They never personally asked for my consent for anything.

As for citizenship and participation I don't see what so virtuous about submitting to the violence of the state and perceiving it as necessary to government when applied to taxes, I respect laws which do not infringe upon my own rights.

I don't volunteer my money, when someone tells me they are going to force me to pay money by some means that is theft. It doesn't matter if its you or an entity which I supposedly in some contract with, a contract which I never signed

Yeah, I get this. I don't disagree that it shouldn't be possible to run persistent sessions. I think it's just an issue of me finding the terminology counterintuitive.

> I log into multiple remote systems every day and connect to my ongoing tmux sessions in other countries.

In this case, it sounds to me that you aren't logging out. It sounds like you're effectively just suspending the connection to your session and then coming back to it later. i.e. you didn't SSH in and then run 'exit' from within your sesson, right? Or is that indeed the way it's done?
That's definitely been my experience. A few years ago, I went to a pharmacy in Thailand with what was clearly a common cold. Instead of handing me the Sudafed I wanted, the pharmacist recommended I take a weeks supply of low-dose amoxicillin. Not only would this do absolutely nothing for my viral cold, it would have increased the risk of creating amox-resistant bacteria in body. Truly concerning to imagine how often this scenario repeats itself every day all over the world ...

Despite similar rates of drug use, black people are nearly four times as likely to be arrested for marijuana use

This can be pretty obviously understood as the result of compound charges, of which the drug charge is a minor component.

Bear with me, facts incoming...

Black people, particularly young black males commit crimes at a much higher rate than other groups. In committing these other crimes and then being arrested, a certain percentage of them happen to have a bag of weed in their pocket, which then gets tacked on as an accessory charge.

Before anyone wants to argue about the objective and carefully tabulated crime rates. No, whites don't just get away with more of the petty, street, and violent crime we are discussing, race ratios of victim reports match those of arrests.

women tend to make significantly less money for doing the same work, in the same positions, at the same company, because of (largely) subconscious biases.

No, because of intentionally faulty statistics to calculate such things.

If women are doing the same work as men and accepting significantly lower pay to do so, why aren't companies tripping over themselves in trying to hire all women staffs and significantly reduce costs?

diversity is important.

"Diversity" in the sense it is used in social policy(for some reason only in the west, no one is harping on Japan, or Saudi Arabia, or Angola about diversity) is harmful and destructive to otherwise healthy societies.

We show that ethnic diversity or fractionalization and values diversity are distinct and while the former has a negative effect on innovation, the latter contributes positively.

"Diversity is our Strength" ^ watch that

as well as to ensure that you're exposing people to as many new and differing viewpoints as possible (and, in turn, taking those viewpoints seriously)

Actually, historically successful societies have pretty refined heuristics for what to take seriously and it has served them well.

It is absurd to say we should take all viewpoints seriously.

How are you defining 'viewpoint', and 'seriously'?

What does it mean to take seriously the viewpoints common in Islam that --

gay people should be persecuted, to the point of being thrown off buildings, stoned to death, or beheaded?

family members should kill other family members in the name of 'honor'?

murdering non-believers is acceptable?

How seriously do you take these viewpoints?

Were NASA hindered in their mission to get to the moon in the 1960s because it was a bunch of white guys with viewpoints grounded in careful observation, excelling at math and science and a kind of boundary pushing audaciousness that seems quite particular to men of European descent?

Yeah that puts you in a really weird position. Speaking as someone who grew up with a foot in both worlds, the best way to handle it is to refuse the gift as inappropriate in American academic culture. (I'm assuming this was in an American institution.)

Also refusing a gift isn't extremely rude in Chinese culture if it's in the nebulous "I scratch your back you scratch mine" gray area that might be bribery. Accepting is basically signing on for the "deal".

If a family member is visiting me and brought a gift, it would be rude to refuse beyond the culturally customary back and forth in which I put on a show of refusing. But if I were a TA and a new student tried to give me a pair of Prada sunglasses, I would outright refuse it, and possibly act insulted/offended by the thought.
New Adults In-Mold Technology AU-B07 Europe Style MTB Bicycle Helmet
While I would hope automakers don't push the technology before it's ready, and relying on disclaimers does seem more CYA than an actual safety measure, it's easy to be defensive when an issue like this has a high probability of being treated irrationally. A meatbag in a conventional vehicle getting into an accident doesn't make the news. An autonomous vehicle completing a trip without incident doesn't make the news. The relative accident rates of autonomous vehicles and meatbag-piloted vehicles doesn't make the news. These are sensitive times for public acceptance of the technology.
This is why almost every panicky API has a non-panicky variant.

Non-panicky APIs can be used in a panicky way via unwrap() or expect(). There are very few panicky APIs, reserved for things where 99% of the time you want it to panic and it would be annoying to have to handle errors all the time. Array indexing is one of these cases, where it would be super annoying to handle errors on each indexing operation.

But if you're in a situation where you expect an index to fail, just use `get()` which returns an Option instead.

APIs do not make the decision for you. At most they decide if the panicky API is easier to use than the monadic error one. Which is where the fuzzy notion of "unexpected" and "expected" errors at the API level comes up, it's good enough to be able to determine what the default should be. Callers still have the power to do something else.
It's a little dismaying that the HN community seems to be so universally, 100% supportive of Thiel in this matter. As I wrote in another comment, we should perhaps be thinking less of the specifics of this case than of the precedent.

"The precedent that if you write scandalous gossip about someone, your company can be destroyed? What's wrong with that?"

Well, first off, scandalous gossip is a little subjective, and as Denton correctly points out, Gawker's sites aren't all trashy gossip in the first place. But, second and more importantly: no. That's not the precedent. The precedent is a billionaire who doesn't like what's being written about him funding other lawsuits to take down a media company.

"But look at the Hogan case. They were found guilty. Thiel had to find a case that could be won, because Gawker really is that bad!"

No. I mean, yes, maybe Gawker really is that bad, but Thiel--or anyone following in his footsteps--only has to find cases that are good enough to get to court. He could effectively cripple or destroy Gawker with cases that weren't winnable, as long as they were expensive enough to defend against and just kept coming. All our "philanthropist" needs is enough money.

The thing is, maybe the next target isn't going to be a site like Gawker. Maybe it's going to be the Intercept, or the Atavist, or Mother Jones (which has already been threatened with similar suits, IIRC), or Reason. Maybe the philanthropist won't be someone we're all quite so willing to give the benefit of the doubt to.

Look: these sort of cases are very often not ones that are over tasteful stories written by people you'd be comfortable sharing an elevator with. I'm not a fan of Gawker-the-site (although I'm a fan of some of Gawker's other properties, which these discussions seem to keep eliding). But I'm still, however reluctantly, on their side in this.

The world will survive just fine without Gawker, sure. But what if the press--not just Gawker, but any site that's got Gawker-level resources or less--has to start thinking, "If someone rich enough and vindictive enough to start funding libel lawsuits against me hates what I write, can I defend myself against them even if they're frivolous?" Do you really think there's no chance that won't make journalism a little more timid? A little more risk-averse?

Do you really think that's a good thing?
>Has anyone attempted to explain why all this "institutional racism" seems to be working to such great benefit for north-east Asians in the US, who consistently rank above the supposed "evil white oppressors" in various socio-economic metrics?

Since others are picking apart your argument in the large, I'll just add this. Institutional racism, though it continues to manifest in the present, can only be fully understood through history: the extremely racist practices and policies of past generations of Americans have had compounding effects through time on the populations subjected to them. Regarding Asian American immigrants, the vast majority of them have only arrived since the 1960s[0], so they've had much less time to be dragged down by systemic racism. And additionally, the fact that they are lighter of skin tone tends to make them a less targeted group by racist actors.

>Or why we see common patterns of achievement and behavior between races across societies with wildly different institutional histories?

Who is 'we' and what exactly do 'we see'??? I'm dying to know.

Type erasure also makes some forms of function overloading impossible.

void func(List<ClassA> list);
void func(List<ClassB> list);

Using type erasure, I cannot specify functions that are overloaded based on the generic type of an argument. To the runtime, both of these accept an argument of type List<Object>, and so it is ambiguous which one to call.

In C++, which does not use type erasure, this sort of function overloading works as expected.
My entire life I have heard the advice to simply stay put if lost. Moving anymore just puts you farther off track. Even reading the linked article, I think I'd still just stay put.
The problem with that idea is that if Huawei really could copy the Samsung, then why haven't they? I'd love to see more phones up to Samsung's specs, but I'm not seeing any. Heck, I'd love to see Samsung make a phone to those specs again (the S6 was crap and the S7 still doesn't have a user-replaceable battery though at least they finally put waterproofing back in).

The other difference is quality. I have no faith Huawei can make a phone at Samsung's quality level. Where are they going to get the screen from anyway? Or the camera? Those components aren't easy to copy; those things are state-of-the-art.

Finally, even Apple can't copy Samsung. They still have crappy screens, though the next iPhone is finally supposed to be getting a superAMOLED screen. WTF took them so long? Simple: Apple isn't a hardware manufacturer, they have to contract stuff out, whereas Samsung is a hardware maker, and makes state-of-the-art screens themselves.

You're taking observations(one of them isn't even a factual observation[0]) and then a priori assigning a cause, "systemic racism," to those observations. That is not how facts, or rational, coherent reasoning works.

[0] Races aren't arrested at different rates for the same crimes, race percentage in victim reports match race percentage in arrests.

Drug arrest rate appear to vary as the result of compound charges, i.e. while being arrested for another crime, blacks happen to have drugs on them. Because blacks commit some crimes at a much higher rate than whites the drug numbers look biased without this context.

North Korea Linked to Digital Attacks on Global Banks
تعلم اللغة الفرنسية (La conjugaison)
The US's history is enormously racist. We fought an entire civil war over whether black people were actually people. The racism denialists are in effect claiming that on some unspecified date in history, all of that racism evaporated and left no trace in heart, mind, or law. That's the proposition I think we should be demanding evidence for.

What explains the similarity in crime rates, test scores, achievement, SES, between Africans in the US, England, and Sweden? 2 of the 3 having no history of enslaving Africans.
It looks like Gigster will invest (money, time?) in some companies from a predetermined fund, not Gigster itself. In turn, they will share 1% of their fund equity with all Gigster developers who were active at the time, paying out when a fund company or Gigster liquidity event occurs. They will allocate rights to returns to active Gigster developers over a 1 to 5 year period.

It looks like, as a Gigster developer, you would get 1%/total active Gigster developers. If there were 500 Gigster developers over that 1 to 5 year period, you'd get 1%/500 = 0.002% of a liquidity event depending on Gigster's weighting mechanism. If Gigster's equity stake was 20% in a company that exited for $100 million, you'd receive maybe $40,000 depending on how Gigster determines your weighted percentage.

It's not really even the same league as a 401k or pension, contrary to what the page says.

Calling it equity is a bit confusing. On the page it states at the top:

"Gigster Fund provides our freelancers with access to equity from Gigster and select companies in our client portfolio."

At the bottom it states with regards to owning equity:

"No. Direct equity ownership or indirect ownership through a limited partnership has complex tax & legal implications, and the SEC limits the number of shareholders a corporation may have which would make direct ownership impossible after a certain number of freelancers".

And

"No. Direct equity ownership or indirect ownership through a limited partnership has complex tax and legal implications. In the United States, for example, Gigsters would be required by law to be accredited investors."

Online OneNote Files Reading Support and Adding Alternative Text for Image in Java
Aspose development team is very excited to announce the new release of Aspose.Note for Java 2.2.0. This month’s release introduces new features and enhancements along with bug fixes that were reported in our last month’s release. Specifically, the API now supports Microsoft OneNote online file format. In addition, it provides support for adding alternate text for images as well as set different page splitting algorithms. This month’s release of Aspose.Note for Java supports OneNote online file format, known as OneNote SharePoint file format. However, this feature comes with some limitations due to the lack of available specifications for reading such contents. These limitations are Hand written drawings are not supported and embedded Files/Images are also not supported. However, we are investigating all possible methods for supporting these and hope to include these in one of nearest releases.

> This reminds me of a character of windows-based development that I find exhausting: opaque layers of unnecessary complexity.

This is pretty much exactly how I feel about this whole thing. While designing NT, MS made a number of assumptions and decisions that were sensible from an engineering point of view back then. Especially if you're very much into OO (wich was the new rage back then). But from an administrator or system programmer point of view, these byzantine structures get more in the way than they help. On top of that, it makes integrating new ideas harder and you end up with layers and layers of API sediment. The people behind systemd are making very similar decisions and assumptions, deviating from the very principles of Unix that prevent this short sightedness.

But React does actually try to do everything. React components can only compose other React components, and so you have React components all the way down. And if passing data all the way down that tree gets tedious you need to start looking into some sort of Flux/Redux type of data handling solution. Pretty soon you're in-lining your CSS because half the tutorials and 3rd party React components are doing that and nothing you've written plays well with any of your existing code, not to mention the vast sea of code written using other libraries. React is a trap. It works best when you use it everywhere, as Facebook does, but it's not a friendly and open framework when it comes to compatibility with others, especially with coming standards like Web Components.

Same awful experience here. Sounds great, was terrible.
What? You think it's fake? That'd be like making a fake negative claim against Trump.
Agreed, at work we use nohup / screen for many important tasks. These tasks are items like doing an upgrade, or migration, or a long running script that you want to protect from a dropped ssh connection. Networks are unreliable, your local system may be unreliable, and the last thing we want to happen is for a script or program to die while making changes to the system that leave it in an inconsistent state.

In my limited understanding, nohup was a very simple mechanism to achieve this. So to me, when you logoff or drop a connection, the system will send a HUP to all the processes in the tree belonging to that session. If the process doesn't accept the HUP, well then it doesn't want to die right now, which is what nohup allowed you to do by intercepting / wrapping the HUP. I assume screen worked on a similar principle and just ignores the HUP since it knows you may want to re-attach later.

Now it sounds like they are working on or have another way to achieve the same result in SystemD, I'm just very curious what the thoughts or reasoning is that this should be a thing.

Anyways, all I can say is that to me, changing this behaviour if I didn't see the release notes or this bug, would cause some very unexpected behaviour for me interacting with a SystemD system, where some of the basic mechanisms I use and encourage for change safety would no longer work. I suspect many others also use screen/nohup, and will be in for a big surprise.
