After the third year of steadily increasing PSA scores, my doctor was concerned even though it was below the official "get worried" mark because of my relatively young age and the trajectory.

I went to a urologist, got a request for the MRI which the insurance company denied, and so had to follow up with the very unpleasant biopsy mentioned in the OP (including missed work, pain, peeing blood). All for the result to come back completely negative.

That was last year, and as luck would have it, this year's PSA score dropped significantly.

I don't know whether I'd say that I'm not glad to have a definitive negative answer, particularly since my father had prostate cancer. However, this false alarm did cost an appreciable amount of money, time, and suffering.
Germany is free to spend their own money how they see fit. For example, by sending money to Romania via the EU budget.

Perhaps Germany should instead focus on the pensioners in their country who have worked hard for 45 years and now live on the minimum pension.

> there must also be more education for the police officers in regards to baseline probabilities so that they realize that black and white people aren't different in behavior

Black and white people are different in behavior, on average. There are many reasons for this, among them that black and white people (both directly and through their social networks and family histories) have very different experiences of how the police (and public authorities more generally) act toward them going back in an unbroken chain for several centuries.

I think alienating two-thirds of the population and focusing on only a subset of the problem is generally counterproductive. I can support the gp with another anecdote of growing up in an overwhelmingly white small town watching cops harass, beat up, (and much worse that I'm not even going to mention) plenty of poor white folks. Race is just a proxy for a power imbalance that cops seek out and abuse, and focusing on race will guarantee the actual problem is never addressed.

I'm not sure where you are getting your numbers, but as far as murders by police, the numbers are generally 50% white, 25% black, 15% hispanic, and 10% other ([1] shows one year). The U.S. population is 60-75% white (depending how it is measured), 12% black, 12-25% hispanic (depending how it is measured).

So, these numbers seem to show that if you are black, you are 2x the average, white you are roughly 0.8x the average, hispanic right about 1x the average as far as likelihood of being killed by a cop. That puts black at about 2.5 as likely as white.

Point is, if you are black, you are absolutely more likely to have these problems than if you are white. This distracts from the actual problem though. The actual problem is the power imbalance that is being exploited by the cops in these situations, and race is just being used as a shortcut by the cop's brain to identify a power imbalance that can be exploited.

Again, focusing on race will guarantee the actual problem never gets addressed (even if it might make you feel like a really great person).

I found my results a bit awkward, as the situations are not independent.

My heuristic was:

- Kill the animals
- Kill people crossing a red signal
- Kill the least amount of people
- Save whoever is inside the car
- Keep going ahead

Yet my results said that 100% of the time I would value women lives over men.
If you have family history, get the test over 45. If you have urination hesitancy, which led me to get tested, get the test. Prostate symptoms can lead to all manner of things besides the dreaded cancer diagnosis. BPH, urination trouble, impotence, chronic pain. None of these are life threatening, but try living with them. They cut into a man's quality of life.

> Is this something OWS could be subpoena'd for?

Not by subpoena alone, but in theory a court order could order them to modify their software (server or client) to collect data. They could fight that court order, and in particular it seems like they'd have a good case on the grounds that such an order would destroy their entire business, but legally a court could at least attempt to issue such an order.
That's just it. If all your developers are familiar with at least the basics of React and Webpack, you aren't adding any complexity. Once you know how things work, a simple Webpack configuration with Babel and 2 presets isn't complex anymore.

What would be complex, however, is introducing DOM logic in yet another way. We're all used how you just define the desired state in React and letting it figure out the transitions. When you suddenly ask your developers to write code that manually manipulates the DOM and has to take care of all the transitions between states, you end up with complex, unclear code that takes everyone a long time to understand.
You're right, and I phrased that badly. I should have said that they're continuing development for their existing properties, but not developing new games.
Again, the deadheading will double the trips. Compare one trip per person to work and parking their car, versus that trip plus the auto-driving car that got them there driving to the next pickup point. That's the extra bit. It could be any length trip. Depending on timing (uncorrelated departure times) then it averages half the width of the city. In any case its strictly worse in the auto-driving situation.

"It may still be comforting for people to get their loved ones back in some way."

Memories. All you get is memories. To imagine something else is delusional. Losing a loved one hurts like hell but life goes on. Denial is one part of the processs but most of all the difficult part of the process is remolding oneself into a world where the loved one is no more.

Our industry has been overrun by resume-bullet-point silicon-valley-framework-coddling noobs/whores. I have always prided myself on staying up on the latest in core web technology. It's the reason I know what a !@#$ing tragic waste most of these idiotic frameworks are.

jQuery had the DOM covered and is in fact now redundant itself and could be managed with a much, much lighter lib that spends a lot less time normalizing assuming you're dropping support for browsers even Microsoft no longer covers.

LESS and SASS were good for vars and should have stopped there. Standard browser support is finally in the works for that. But you certainly don't need both and for FFS you're just making an unmaintainable styling mess using all of the other features, especially (noob, please), nesting which needlessly adds to selector count like nobody's business.

We do NOT need to ASP/JSPify the DOM. Keeping content/structure code separated from the behavior code was the reason proper front end devs were running circles around Java/ASP.net devs. What the fucking fuck is the point of adding your own custom tags to HTML, which already had a perfectly serviceable approach to binding behavior to it? Or creating an XML-like syntax you mix/match directly with your JS?

Silicon valley noobs, please. I had lazy loading scrollable tables that could handle 50,000+ lines of data back when Google Docs was choking on 2,800. This shit is not hard. Stop wining and spend the time you apply to learning frameworks with next to no core technology understanding to actually learning the technology you have before you start adding pointless layers that solve nothing on top of what's already there and you'll be shocked at how not-hard it can really be.

Or let's not. Let's load a massive freaking ridiculous CSS and JS library by the Twitter devs, because, yes, surely they know through their work with a site that essentially boils down to a single text area, a great deal about handling complex layout and UI concerns.

AMD for a web app? Okay, I can see it, certainly for non-trivial SPAs , which NOT EVERY SITE NEEDS TO BE. But first, how complicated is this web app? If not-very, why were people struggling with linking scripts in the right order? Why did they need to link so many damn things to get the job done in the first place?

And FFS, it's just "data-binding." Calling it "Two-way" is redundant and makes you sound like a jackass who doesn't know what the fuck is actually happening. And it's just a pattern. And not a very hard one to implement.

MVC and MV? are great. Really, whatever the fuck keeps data separated from an app layer from your DOM-handling is fantastic. Frameworks that make it easy to follow such patterns in a way that all developers can become familiar with are great too. But sweet JavaScript Jesus why won't they just stop there?

We used to laugh at Java developers. What the fuck are we doing to ourselves? Why haven't I gotten an honest to god core web technology or native JavaScript question at an interview in like 3 years? We have indeed, ruined JavaScript.

Thanks a lot assholes.
Can someone explain how people are imagining protocols that do not to create / store metadata? This seems like something fundamentally impossible on a packet-switched network. After all, the data has a source and a destination, and goes through the infrastructure that's tappable (and in big part already tapped) by a state-level actor.

About the only thing that comes to my mind would be a digital equivalent to broadcasting a radio signal - a protocol, under which everyone receives all communication that's done over that protocol, but each person can only decrypt the part that's addressed to them directly. This would reduce the metadata to "who's broadcasting", without revealing the listener.

EDIT: Some back-of-the-napkin calculations on such broadcast protocol:

I took a look on my today's communication with my SO; rounding somewhat up, it would be ~100 messages of on average 50 characters, going in both directions. That gives, using 2 bytes for character and multiplying by 1.5 to account for protocol-related padding:

- 15000 bytes / user / day of a single conversation

Say this protocol has 1M user, that gives us:

(50 * 100 * 2 * 1.5 * 1000000) / (100010001000)

15 GB of data, spread over the whole day.

Seems manageable; especially if one would be to bucket it by e.g. hour by default, or less, if client is active and streaming data continously. Definitely a mobile bandwidth killer, though.

> You said, "Counteroffers are poison for both the employee and the company." That's a very strong position you're taking.

My opinion is that counteroffers are poison, generally because some employers or employees have unrealistic views on what loyalty means, and it always turns out badly for the employee.

> This is true, but inapplicable to the decision of whether to take a counteroffer.

If the employer, management, and employee have a good, realistic and mature view on employee/employer relationships and trust, that is correct. However, it's fairly common (especially for new managers) for them to think of employees looking for other jobs as a personal affront, and will make your life miserable. Life sometimes isn't as tidy as it should be.

Please refrain from ad hominem attacks - it is against HN rules.

I simply want to learn what has caused the increase of rapes. The fact the the police (and the press) in Sweden were, in many cases, instructed not to report the race/nationality of attackers - to me - constitutes censorship.
The fact that some of the 'features' are two lines, but there's no way to differentiate rows makes that page kind of hard to read, fwiw. Not that it really matters, because who actually gives a shit about those aside from the # of check marks!

I miss the JOS blog a lot as well. It influenced me a lot over a decade ago. It presented a very optimistic view of the field and career path of a programmer, with good writing, interesting tech viewpoints, and humor. There was also less tech blogging back then.

I really liked Joel's vision of what a software developer should be, especially what the working conditions should be. I feel he embraced the concept of being both a professional and, frankly, an adult.

http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/FieldGuidetoDeveloper...

My lament is that I really do think tech instead doubled down on what I feel is kind of a childish, "young people are just smarter" attitude, with giant open offices, back visibility, low autonomy,

The vision JOS presented is one that I can embrace. I'd encourage young people to go into software development if I thought they had a future similar to the one presented in this blog. That version of a tech career is still there, to an extent, but unfortunately, tech seems to have moved more strongly away from it over the last 15 years. I can't encourage young people to go into a field with giant open offices, back visibility, limited autonomy, office retreats to dave n busters. I suppose there's a subset who like this, but my impression is that a huge number of developers, a group that most certainly includes developers recently out of college in their 20s, find this cultural world to be a disappointment.
I'm not sure I understand your complaint/concern. We're talking about text chat and video chat clients, and you're concerned with giving them access to your contacts? How are you going to contact your contacts with the apps if they don't know who your contacts are?

All communication apps are going to require access to your contacts so that your contact information can be used to communicate with your contacts. Duo and Allo are tied to phone numbers. They use phone numbers to identify users, so without access to phone numbers (contacts), they can't function. This is the same as all text message (SMS) clients, and the same way that many other chat clients work (Signal, WhatsApp, etc.).
Ha, interesting, I wouldn't have guessed that. Could you elaborate a bit on how you tested and measured it? Would be useful to know for the next time I try to name a thing.

I think those things already exist, the Stingray is just the most-publicized of its ilk. Big price tags provide plenty of incentive for closed-source implementations, or possibly just licensing something already made.

The open-source versions often serve to democratize or to remind, of the possibilities that've existed for some time. I think it'll enable some small-fish to do bad things that the big-fish have been doing for years.

As for signal what every prosecutor wants is metadata to show the court that user A was in communication with user B. The actual contents of the messages aren't important especially in a conspiracy case and user B is an informant, their word against yours plus metadata showing you communicating is good enough.

Besides forcing Signal to keep this metadata in the future, I wonder if they can just obtain it themselves by watching all traffic on their federated servers and timing it to discover communication networks.
Effectively React replaces (in many cases, simplifying) the base DOM manipulation aspects of jQuery -- but of course it does not replace the other useful utilities jQuery provides, nor the many DOM manipulation plugins in the jQuery community. When I first started with React I was able to use those libraries without issue -- you do have to learn how (when) React allows you to access the DOM and when it expects you to clean it up but for an experienced dev, its a short learning curve. Over time, I've seen many libraries similar to those jQuery plugins arise (or transition) into React components and its been fine to slowly phase in / out as I please. Lastly, its been mostly straight forward to encapsulate jQuery (or other) DOM manipulation libs within a React component, such that consumers need not even know its being used internally.
Perhaps, but it is also tainted with, to me, inexplicable craving for attention using methods that aren't aligned with the espoused higher calling of Wikileaks - as in the Sony hack content. That, to me, significantly damaged the remaining credibility of the organization. It may not resonate the same way for everyone, that's fine, I just sincerely disliked that situation.
