> There is no legally-specified default custody in divorce; women get custody in divorce more often because they are more likely to request it. Men get custody more often when it is contested between the parties.

> Again, to the extent that's true, that's not an example of the law treating them differently; as a matter of law, domestic violence is equally prohibited when a male is the victim.

You are onto something. The laws seem to treat men and women the same.

So why is there a need for an organizations like "Women who code"? The law, on paper, treats both men and women the same right?

If your answer is that the laws are unfair towards a particular gender, then you yourself contradict the above mentioned points.

else if your answer is that "in practice" women get treated unfairly despite equal on-paper laws, that is exactly what I meant by "US laws default to women as caregivers". Men get treated unfairly in domestic and family issues.

Written law and law as it is enforced and practiced is very very different when it comes to gender issues.

"Looker Secures $48 Million Series C Funding from Kleiner Perkins" (January 2016):

https://looker.com/news/press/looker-secures-48-million-seri...
by moving from hunter-gatherer economies (where every single person was engaged in food production) to agriculture, and then from agriculture to mechanized agribusiness, we created a vast pool of unemployed humans (like 90 to 99% of the human race) who were available to do all sorts of other things, basically everything in the economy that is not food production. The REAL issue there was the availability of the jobless to do new work. To that vast list of productive economic activities we soon will be able to add jobs for newly-former drivers.

That really is how it works and it really is not an issue, other than it is what has "paved the way" for our modern high income, high nutrition, high health (by historical standards) lifestyles.

So why not require the credit bureaus to spend $1 million when they fail to do what they say they do!

It's called identity theft, but that's just a successful marketing campaign by the lazy banks and credit bureaus. It's fraud, and they (try to) push the consequences off on a party that is not really able to prevent it from happening. We should just tell them they aren't allowed to do that. Then we don't need Lifelock anymore.

I've been in a similar position as you. Make sure to not run in perpetual crunch mode. If you have to consistently work on weekends or late you are doing it wrong. The stress is bad for your health. Sadly happened to me.

First step is to determine proper team size to do the job. Next bring in a few key teams members who you can trust to get things done. Start delegating stuff. However try not to delegate the understanding of the overall project. You should have a good pulse of how things are progressing without polling people. That mean being in code reviews, reviewing commits, etc.
You don't lose fan control with the ecobee3 Power Extender Kit. Also, the C wire is not rarely available, basically any house since the early 90s will have one already wired up, and any house that has upgraded hvac unit in say the last 15 years will have the capacity to install one by running a wire to the mainboard.
I've got my i7 Macbook Pro coincidentally plugged into a watt meter, and the power consumption went from 8W to 40W. (This is with the lid closed, fully charged, and an external monitor - idle consumption is more like 15W when the internal screen is active. Maybe subtract a bit if it isn't driving a second monitor. Add more if charging the battery.)

I wouldn't have thought 80°C is anything to worry about from the computer's point of view, but if using it on your actual lap I'd advise a degree of caution.
> # Continued job losses months on end - Unemployment rate of 7.1% !

I wouldn't get too hung up on that -- historically that's a fairly decent rate for Canada.

For a variety of reasons (difference in the way the rate is measured, and structural differences between the two countries) Canada's unemployment rate has generally been several points higher than the US since the late-70s.

At least one analysis I've seen of the structural differences pinned the higher rate on the fact that unemployed Canadians were more likely to be seeking to return to the workforce than US counterparts, inflating the number since they don't "drop out" of the workforce entirely.

I wish GDB was a bit more like Acid, in that the debugger was really just a scripting language* that let you do things like set breakpoints at an address, read the symbol table and parse DWARF debug info, set watchpoints, and not much else.

Basically everything else that you would use at the source level could be built on top of those.

Maybe this is the start of a new underwear project: A debugger in [part of] the spirit of Acid, but built on top of the lldb library.
I see having pointers to support dynamic memory allocation as something different from the ability to refer to memory addresses. For example, in C, one can [1] write a program that attempts to write data to any memory address. With Java, that is not possible. With pascal, Wirth's intention was similar, but IIRC variant records provided an undesired escape hatch.

[1] probably not without invoking implementation-dependent behavior.
I don't think it is just about 'feeling' safe on public roads... it is just factually more dangerous than being in a car, regardless of how I feel.
Affirmative action sets a lower barrier to entry for people of certain races, or it establishes quotas around certain races. This is to say that they cannot be held to the same standard of merit and expect a proportional outcome to something like admission to a particular college.

> without regard to their race, creed, color...

Affirmative action does the very thing it purports to ensure against, by discriminating on the bases of race.

If you believe that one race is inferior in some way and cannot compete on a level playing field then you may feel that affirmative action is necessary to give them a greater advantage. You mentioned circumstances which basically form an inferiority from past accrued disadvantage (I know you called it disadvantage of circumstance, but try to follow me for a moment). This doesn't seem to be the case with affirmative action admissions programs because they lower the bar for Blacks and raise the bar for Asians. Sure Blacks, were treated worst than Asians throughout most of American history, but Whites were not treated better than Asians.

Often the greatest beneficiaries of these programs are not native born African Americans, but recent African immigrants whose ancestors were not enslaved in the US, and not subject to past discrimination and segregation.

http://nypost.com/2015/04/05/meet-the-student-accepted-into-...

Incidentally, the two cases above would make good counterpoints to the idea of racial intellectual inferiority regardless of affirmative action and would likely have been able to gain admissions to a top university without it. But the unfortunate consequence of affirmative action is that many people will assume it is all because of their special treatment. Clarence Thomas had much more difficult obstacles to overcome, and he was subjected to this unfortunate assumption after graduating from law school.

I think the real intention of affirmative action is to achieve more equal outcomes across racial divides. I think that's a good objective. But I also think this is a policy that sounds much better than it actually works. If we're to have more equal outcomes, then we need more equal opportunities and we need an end to all forms of discrimination.

It doesn't look like they actually need a blockchain for this. They just need an archive of signed documents. They could use a website, or IPFS.

Blockchains are hot right now, but they solve a very specific problem: finding consensus on a history of transactions. If you need to prove that a document was signed at a certain point in history, then a blockchain can help. But you don't need one for any of the examples given in this proposal, such as hosting student transcripts.

So it sounds like you think you have the "glimpse of the future". Well, nothing is stopping you from doing it RIGHT NOW, instead of posting on HN about how you need money to do anything.

When you think you have a good idea but not working on it, it probably means either: 1. you don't think the idea is good enough to risk your stable life; 2. you are too lazy to do it; 3. you don't want to risk regardless of how great of an idea you think it is.

In every one of these cases, you're not cut out to be a founder--you just can't do the most important part--"then go build it". That's what makes "founders" special, they just do it instead of complaining how it can't be done.

> So why is there a need for an organizations like "Women who code"? The law, on paper, treats both men and women the same right?

There are many social reasons that the situations women face in the programming might be different than those faced by men that have nothing to do with differences in law, either on their face or in practical application.

> If your answer is that the laws are unfair towards a particular gender

But its not, so that's okay.

> else if your answer is that "in practice" women get treated unfairly despite equal on-paper laws

But my answer is not that they in practice get treated unfairly in the execution of the law, either.
Most of our hires are not developers. We're not building cutting edge tech. We have some internal tools but I don't believe they require "top developers" by whatever metrics Facebook might use. That said, I think the few developers we have are exceptionally good - versatile, multi-skilled, quick learners, broad experience, the ability to conceive, manage and run a whole software project without very little help... and whatever they decide to develop, they do develop. As a developer myself, tech cofounder of my two previous startups, I rate them as excellent developers and would be happy to work with them on any project. One of them, with no academic credentials, is the smartest person I know.

Re: your second point, I don't believe in the concept of "B players". See http://danieltenner.com/2014/09/11/there-are-no-b-players/

I am sad that you see this as insulting. I'm not justifying anything. These developers (like others in the company) have largely chosen their own salaries. One of them is in the top pay bracket in the company. They also chose my salary, btw.

I can't believe this is still the top comment. If Jacob Applebaum is a rapist, then that is horrible and of course he should step down. But this comment links to 3 tweets that are all duplicates of each other.

I had a very similar experience at the beginning of my career. Due to inexperience, I tolerated it for several months. It took more than that after I changed environment in order to come back to normal. The damage that person did to me was huge. I managed to recover only thanks to very strong social support from some friends I had since university. Even though we were not talking about the issue, doing other (kind of extreme though) activities helped me.

Looking back, tolerating this behaviour was a disservice to both me and the company I was working at. I lost many things professionally because of that. Do not make the same mistake. The guy might be super clever, super efficient and very knowledgeable. That does not give him the right, though, to destroy people's lives. And if you tolerate this, keep in mind that there will be also others in your position later.

Btw, the description you provide matches pretty closely the guy I knew. Super smart, Asperger's and I was his victim. Before me, there was another person who was holding him in very high esteem but was also forced to resign, partly because of the unsupportive environment.

I cannot imagine how that feels to come back to your house intact. I've wondered ever since an acquaintance of mine, who had a house in the Oakland hills during its fire [1], talked about it. She had come back to her house and it was still standing, and then went on to relate how, for her, it was a mixed blessing.

The house was there, and the stuff was there, but everything smelled of smoke (and would for years afterward). Some of her neighbors lost their homes, and a combination of the rebuilding challenges (dealing with insurance, contractors, budgets etc) resulted them in selling their houses and moving away. Some of her neighbors were living in 20 year old houses instead of over 50 year old houses (this was back in 2011). Her neighbors had much better wiring, stronger foundations, and built in home fire sprinkler systems. Things which improved their homes in a number of small but important ways.

She said it was the most surreal thing in her life in terms of how she "should" feel, how she "did" feel, and how she thought about and remembered the fire. In 2006 she had upgraded the insulation in the attic to make the house more energy efficient and removing all of the old insulation released a lot of smokey smells again which brought a lot of the scene, the craziness, back.

I've thought about that a lot since I talked with her. All through my life my parents and the government has spent time and money telling me to "prepare" for disaster and no money at all telling me how to live "after" disaster.

Something that helped her was that she began writing a journal in the days and weeks and months that followed the fire.

Many sections of HMRC's website are now integrated into gov.uk. For example the PAYE (Paye-As-You-Earn) for employees/employers/agents. Have a look at the screenshots [1], the UX is superb. In a single page, you clearly see your gross income, your estimated income tax, and the history of pension contributions.

I see there are guidelines about coding in-the-open in Scala [2].

I agree. Even with an act of congress, it would never be guaranteed with certainty. Even with an amendment to the constitution, another amendment could come along to nullify it (like how the 21st amendment repealed the 18th amendment).

The author does have a valid point, however, in that knowing the income won't last forever will change how the beneficiaries behave.
Another huge reason is that China outright banned the use of gasoline powered motorcycles in many big cities; since the majority of people just can't afford a car, the only replacement they could have is electric bikes.

Maybe one day we'll also see gasoline powered personal vehicles be banned in the West ? I kind of doubt it, seeing how important the car is in our society, even though there is some progress towards it (see for instance the car-free days in Paris (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36243119), and I'm sure in other places as well)

There's definitely a problem there, I agree. In practice, the people that we take to that stage of the interview process typically have quite a lot of self-awareness and also know a fair bit about our company by then, so so far it's worked out alright. But I definitely see that that could be a problem with some people. As I said elsewhere it's not something any company can just implement without thinking about it and have it just work. It takes a lot of work in many areas of the business.

No offense but based on what happened here point #4 isn't profit. However if you read up on him they may have gotten closer to a Sanders if anything. Based on his actions he has try to what Obama promised to do (Transparency, cabinet mandate and such is publicly available) but never intended to do.

The question that exist is, will his continued openness/transparency in governance keep alive the honeymoon period long enough to deliver on the large number of promises made in an unfriendly economy. You can promise the moon but economics will not let him deliver it.
As many have said already G+ did the job on its own. But what's also important was the crucial time at launch.

These were the days when the people coming to Facebook in 2008, 2009 were a bit fed up by it and wanted to try something else with hosting pictures, events etc. So they actually were the most interested in trying in out, hey it was a Google product and everyone loved Gmail. But Google screwed up and placed an invite system.

I don't know if they weren't prepared for the scale or wanted to copy Gmail (it worked once, amirite!) or the Facebook being exclusive at their beginning.

The times were different though and if you slam the door before someone eager to try out your stuff, guess what, he won't come back. So after couple months when the invites were a bit more reachable, the initial interest was wasted and left an aftertaste in people.

And you don't want that.
It's a chicken+egg problem. I've considered riding a bicycle to work (it's only about 6 miles), but there are busy streets without bicycle lanes (or even sidewalks), and drivers in the area are known to be actively aggressive against cyclists.

These things drive down the numbers of cyclists, which increases the general feeling that they aren't accepted, and that it's not worth it to cater to them.

> if we could just use those forbidden things called school buses and public transportation.

If they were available and timely? Sure. We have buses in my area. They come hourly. They aren't practical unless you have a lot of spare time, and each connecting bus compounds the problem. I can get to some nearby cities by train, but it's almost always more convenient, faster, and cheaper to drive there myself.

Cars will become a luxury instead of a necessity when those problems are fixed...and those problems will be fixed when cars become unnecessary for a reasonable quality of life.
>>Due to its robustness for both consumers and suppliers, ACH is a slow, multi-staged, layered process that focuses on protecting all parties involved...

I like what plaid brings to the table, that statement however is a bit of a stretch.

ACH is slow because of the old tech involved essentially being a series of batched cron jobs used to move the data around not due to some 'robustness'.

Countries with newer banking systems have ACH-like setup that us way faster then US', Mexico's SPEI being a prime example of that.

There's also Fedwire but it's not for mere mortals :)
ok that helps. Does this only happen if the account has been 'pre verified' with plaid? or do they still have to do the micro deposits if this is a first time they have used ach?
