> Another analogy is boycotts and shunning during the South African apartheid era. Apparently uninvolved entities, like musicians and writers, were forced to either take a position against the apartheid state, or to tacitly admit the issue was not important to them. Eventually it became all but untenable to support the South African government policy.

Only a ignorant person can think SA is a success story. It is a horror show from beginning to ending. What a colossal fuck up.

You'll never admit you failed will you? That this 'Rainbow Nation didn't work.

You failed and you failed real hard, I am so sick of the lies the media have told about SA. This was the mother of all failures and it is dressed as some success story. I feel sick in my stomach.

It is VERY hard. Some may even call it bad temper. Some call it self control. But sometimes I think some system are in place as if they were there just to make you angry. In tech terms, these UX are bad. And it is exactly this reason we can innovate, and someday an idea was born from this frustration into a startup.
Other thing that easily set me off is Hypocrite. I would much rather they admit they are a asshole. And I am fine with that.

Thinking back now I think I have grow up with a little bit more patient, rather then spending time to get angry, I just spend time doing something else worthwhile. Hypocrite I can ignore, but someone put me in the wrong, is still something i cant over come yet. I tried to let time fix it. But the anger still creeps in once I sit down and not doing anything as if evil is trying to seduce me into darkness.

Many mention here the power to control your anger as Intelligent and smart. I am not sure if those are the correct word to use. I think they are wise, which I think is something different to Intellect.

I am using the word "I think" here a lot, because i am not sure if any of these of sure, so correct me if I am wrong.
No thanks! I talk all the day to marketing people. That's more than enough for me.

Not once did I suggest that people were not ill, merely that a society's consideration of a high proportion of its people as ill is a symptom of the society more than the individuals. The baseline assumption in your polemic that people should center their lives around "social, academic or occupational functioning" is actually highly offensive to some, including myself.
It's bad to put your opponent in jail if your opponent does not belong in jail and equally bad to not put your opponent in jail if they do belong there.

In a properly functioning country, status as "opponent" or "non-opponent" has nothing to do with going to jail. Right now we don't seem to have that; destruction of evidence is one of many things that would put any normal person in jail.

Given that Trump's opponent actually committed crimes, Trump is actually showing respect for our system of government. To let the powerful go unpunished is to disrespect it.

I don't think that's true actually. The media had a policy on not reporting on candidates infidelity. People didn't think it was relevant to politics and that it was a cheap way of attack. As far as I can tell reporting on and outrage over sex scandals has only become more popular over time. Our culture is much more sensitive to it now, instead of the reverse.

I've worked with Sensable Phantoms and various other haptic devices and I've never heard of this kind of thing.

Interesting that it does occur at all.

I've seen papers done using these kinds of haptic systems combined with co-located graphics where the graphics and haptic systems displayed different information. What they found was just how dominant the visual system is and how haptic and proprioceptive were definitely secondary.

With a deformable surface you can make the graphics deform more than the haptic surface and people will think it's softer.
Thiel has enough money that people will politely make excuses for him because they need his money.

Left, right or Trump, it's all about the money folks. The money people pick people with the right ideology to run things and it all trickles down though the company culture. Everyone would change what they believed in 5 minutes if it came down from on high and their job was on the line.

Heck, most people are living paycheck to paycheck and very close to living out of their car. They'll jump and down like a chicken to keep their job if need be.
Yes, this is worth noting. Presidential candidate is essentially a binary choice, not on/off, but A or B; one or both candidates can deeply offend people in certain ways and yet still get their vote or support because of a certain issue on which there is actually agreement.

Cognitive dissonance can be a hell of a thing, and it seems to be at play here. We should recognize this and limit our extreme reactions when it rears its head.

Interesting - to me, it seems like asian parents have recognized that genetics have less of a role than you might think. When I look at math contest results (in the US), asian kids are completely dominating. Either asian kids are just inherently better at math (probably not), or their parents have realized that they can instill the work ethic and studiousness to produce these results even if their kid isn't a natural genius.
Please address this question @cramforce.

Why are you introducing a new and totally unnecessary display element when the back button is built right in to the browser and everyone already knows how it works?

No matter how hard I try, I can't think of any good reason for this banner.

Reading the article and the comments in this thread makes you realize that Trump is the logical conclusion for a society so divided that people refuse to work even with their theoretical team mates if they refuse to renounce themselves strongly enough from the other team.
Obama also has commented on his choice to have only one kind of suit. I have a few friends who do the same. Not saying that it makes you Obama or Steve but it isn't uncommon to optimize that part of life away once you have a suitable outfit that looks good.
Because not everyone finds a useful page given their query from the first result they check. I often check between 2-4 results for some queries before I find what I want.

Possibly fair point about the gym supplying, however I've never worked out at a gym in a climate where I'd need it. I can imagine gyms in Thailand or Indonesia being so humid to need it though. Heavy deadlifting is subjective; very few people "need" chalk under normal conditions.

The article writer mentions rings though. I can def see a need for the chalk if they are doing rings.
State of Ohio to Investigate Satirical Tweet That Fooled Drudge and Limbaugh
"This is a shunning, or a boycott" ... "It's a way to gauge how seriously one takes the issue"

shunning: persistently avoid, ignore, or reject (someone or something) through antipathy or caution [1].

Not inclusive. Hypocrisy is a way to gauge how seriously we take an issue as well. I think we all need some practice empathizing with other viewpoints. They exist, regardless of whether we can understand/agree with them. Finding out what we have in common with one another is an important skill.

[1] as a side note, google shows usage over time for the word. interesting to see that shunning is having a comeback, though we are still a ways away from early 1800's levels of usage :)

> If you think the only way to have a coding exercise is to pose a whiteboard problem, then my advice is get out of this industry, now.

Asking coders with 10 years of experience to write 10 lines of pseudoish code is wrong!! Try avoiding a coding exercise in interviews for coding positions at all costs. In the worst case make it a take home exercise. This is the only way to save this industry!!! Got it!
I wish I could try various ones, but as you say, cost is an issue.

I do have some OCRs, and while they do a credible job with printed text (95%), they fail miserably with typewritten letters (75%) (the blotchiness of a mechanical typewriter throws it off) and fail 100% with handwritten letters, even carefully done block letters.

I know there is success with domain specific handwriting recognition, like envelope addresses, but nothing that can handle a cursive letter.

You'd think with all the facial recognition progress this should be a much simpler problem.

(To do a good OCR, it'd have to examine the context of a muddled character to determine what it should be, just like a human does when reading cursive. This should be an ideal candidate for "deep learning".)
Maybe you've already tried it, but I've got a roughly 12x3x2" dopp kit and it's AWESOME. The utility/cognitive load for my dopp kit has to be higher than for any other thing I own.

That's not how licenses work. You can't just apply what you assume is true. You'll get called out when you don't expect it.
That's a popular misconception, like "everyone thought the world was flat before Columbus reached America."

The immorality of slavery was recognized hundreds of years before the founding of the US. It was abolished in France in the 1300s, in Sweden in 1335, etc. It was never really legal in England and that fact was recognized in 1706, about 40 years before Thomas Jefferson was born. The founders' condoning slavery was a deeply immoral political expedient that was recognized by many as immoral even contemporaneously.

But that's besides the point. The fact that the founders were individually contemptible people doesn't mean their ideas were wrong. You can agree with many of the things Thomas Jefferson said without personally condoning slavery and rape.

If Thiel was a direct supporter of David Duke for instance, then I think (hope?) most commentators here would be calling for him to be dissociated from ycombinator and "ruined" or marginalised to whatever degree was legal I'm sure.

Many people think Trump crossed a line at some point a while ago that points him in the same camp as extremist groups like white-nationalists, and outside of legitimate political discourse.
> When Max picked up the phone, you should have exclaimed, “Hey, Max! It’s a pleasure to chat. I would love to hear what you’re up to.” And you should have said it genuinely.

Should have, yes, if you really felt that way. And if you can feel that way geniunely, that's the best.

However, I don't think it's right to lie like that if you don't really feel that way. You can go a long way being nice without lying.

But, on don't just give up and say, "I'm just not nice." That's a problem, and if you feel that way all the time, you should go see or talk to someone: a family member, a friend, a GP doctor, a psychiatrist, or anyone that will listen and help you figure out the real problem. You might need more sleep. You might need medicine. You might need a chiropractic adjustment. You might need to vent. You might need to just spend time with another person. You might need to be alone in nature.
I don't see scrutinizing apparently fictional "statistics" as an exercised in pedantry in the slightest. People who can't be bothered to as you say, find or generate good data and are content with bad data are not people you should trust with money, or important tasks. From a random celebrity like Kutcher, it's understandable and expected at least; if someone expects him to be rigorous they might be new to the planet.

News outlets and other users of that stat by contrast, have much more to answer for.
Why can't I use AMP but opt out of the AMP Cache? Seems strange that I have to choose between AMP and actually receiving my own traffic.

I guess I could use AMP but intentionally break my page's validation so it wouldn't be cached, but then I wouldn't get the special flag on SERPs, which effectively penalizes non-AMP sites.
Many of us talk a bit quicker when nervous. I've only presented twice, both to a very small audience (6-10 people) for a local user group nearly a decade ago. The first time I was very nervous and self conscious. The second time, I was still somewhat nervous, but the first time is always the worst. I felt like I did rather well, with a more conversational style, the second time. Unfortunately, there's no video.

Then again, it's probably doubly cringeworthy if I did see it. Once for the mistakes I would see, and once again for the difference in how well I felt I did to what I imagine would be apparent once I could review it.

This article mentions SEO.

As far as I know, as long as the content is embedded in JSON/JS when the page loads, it's fine to then "render" it with JavaScript. It's 2016 and Google started crawling JS websites a while ago.

However, if you fetch it with AJAX after the page loads, Google won't see it because it doesn't necessarily follow AJAX calls nor wait around for them to return in 810ms. They'll most likely only render the bundled content.

You can use the "fetch as Google" tool in Google Webmaster Tools to try this out for yourself.
No, you may interpret him to mean what you want. You don't have to like him, I don't have to like him. I'm not going to part ways with someone because of who they vote.

My partner and I seldom vote for the same candidate. They are free to vote their conscience. We don't have meet minds over this. Same here. Mr Thiel or Mr. Sanders can vote however they wish. Or you or me. What if I were a capitalist and a friend of mine were a communist and wanted to take everything I own away if her party took power, should I part ways over this? Should I shame her? Make sure no capitalist would hire her?

I started doing this with socks. I bought a package of black crew socks and packed away all of my other socks. It simplified a little bit of my life, and I never unpacked the other socks. I eventually bought in for the rest of my wardrobe. It's nice not needing to stop and think "does this go together?" (or the equivalent of my wife saying "you can't go out looking like that!")
I'd say yes and yes. But it's less obvious with Eich. You need to balance two ideas: everyone's (legal) speech should not just be protected from government intrusion but also from certain threads by private institutions/people.

The "certain" above is the problem, because it's hard to define: you cannot and must not isolate people from all consequences of their speech. Sometimes those consequences even come in the form of speech themselves (or something the Supremes would consider "speech"). I must have the right not to invite my mother-in-law to christmas when I just don't want to listen to her racist rants again all night.

On the other hand, there are some disproportional reaction that could create a problem for democracy. Lets say the top three mobile provides colluded to deny doing business with anyone donating to the green party. That's dangerous because those donations are probably not important enough for the individuals to stop using a phone, yet collectively they're enormously important for that democracy-thing we have going.

Similarly with employment: it cannot be right to fire a regular employee for their private opinions, as long as the employee does everything reasonable to keep them from interfering with life at the office.

Eich and Thiel are different in that their employment isn't quite as "regular". Firstly, "firing" is a lesser threat to them, because they have above-average chances of getting a different job (Eich), or the financial impact would be insignificant (Thiel). Secondly, their position in leadership makes their private actions more relevant to their businesses.

I used to see ads on TV for pardoning services, that implied that they could restore your ability to travel. Does anyone know if those actually work? If they do, then you might really be clear and free with a bit less than $100MM after, say, 5 years.
This is "not even wrong."

Residential life is part of the package of top-tier universities - you live in the dorms first year by default, and are usually required to. When students migrate to nearby apartments depends, and is sometimes never.

Financial aid offices "meet demonstrated need" and don't typically differentiate between tuition, fees, and room and board.

If a student with a full ride moves off, financial aid cuts them a check for living expenses. Sometimes this amount is calculated based on the expectation that the student will work a campus job (with govt-subsidized wages - Work Study) and sometimes not.
Your philosophy does not consist of a few case-specific conclusions; for example, deciding that you want to spend your evening watching a movie alone tells me very little about how much you value interpersonal relationships.

I did not say that examining patterns of behavior was useless, but that you shouldn't dismiss people just because you disagree with them. For example, you shouldn't get a divorce just because your significant other gave you a piece of unwanted advice or criticism.
"fundamental" seems to imply a magnitude shift. 100x seems the minimum bar IMHO. Otherwise its just decimate..
There's more to it than that. Thiel gave Trump over a million dollars. That's not just agreeing, it's enabling. It's facilitating. Thiel is actively helping Trump push his neofascism.
'disappear' was more of an 'artistic brush'.

Prominent journalists or opposition members are killed in broad daylight and/or in public. They may be 'blessed' with a jail sentence, or if they are very lucky and will "smell the assassins breath" - they will escape the country.

Oligarchs who were opposing Putin in 2000s are either dead, in jail or left the country (and left their businesses to the government).

Boris Nemtsov - was killed in the middle of Moscow, was well known opponent of current Russian political system, after his death practically all opposition is oppressed, because not any opponent wants to die anymore (knowing that there are not many prominent opposition leaders left in Russia).

If you criticize Putin or government too hard you will "magically" earn few criminal cases and it's highly likely you will be convicted (e.g. Alexei Nemtsov, M. Khodorkovsky). You could be in jail as long as they wish, because they "may find extra details" about your case just before you need to be released (Khodorkovsky's case).

If you "speak too much" they will make you "dissapear" from public eye, either by death, jail, making you leave the country or just making sure that you never appear publicly again.

>>Anger exists for a reason and it exists for good reasons

Anger originates from a time where responding with anger to a certain situation could save your life and rise the probability to reproduce. That was long ago before human reason arised. Today anger is an overkill for most of the situations we face in daily life. Fortunately we can use human reasoning to deal with this. Read the book A Guide To The Good Life: The Ancient Art Of Stoic Joy! It is a life changer.

Tl,dr: you don't have to suppress it because you can eliminate it by changing yor point of view.
