Saudi Arabia was (until massive backlash and attention) on the Human Rights board of the UN. You know, the country that stones women and sponsors terrorism. In a totally unrelated series of events, they have also donated millions upon millions of dollars to the election campaigns of US officials. Surly Saudi Arabia is just a powerhouse when it comes to Human Rights and they really deserved that spot.

Please note, this is just one obvious example. Read into this topic more. Ignorance and lack of research doesn't mean people are "paranoid". Easy to dismiss uncomfortable truths by calling people paranoid and conspiracy theorists.
How much traffic does your blog receive when it makes the front page of HN?

Not a tech blog, but when I hit the front page, even briefly, it tends to go to between 5k and 10k page views over the course of a couple of days or so. My best, most overwhelmingly successful page has a bit over 20k total page views currently. I think something like 15k of that came from hitting the front page when someone (not me) posted it, much to my astonishment.

I have reason to believe this is not even very good in the grand scheme of things for hitting the front page.

I suggest having a search feature across all repositories.
I am truly shocked by the amount of people who favor Clinton over the FBI. It's very disheartening that so many people are so deluded by their own hubris.

I just hope to God that these cases aren't closed forever by a Clinton presidency.
Depending on where the demographics you would expect as high as 1 successful suicide per 5,000 men per year. So, randomly having a successful subside in a 320 person study is not that unlikely. Unsuccessful suicides are more common. So, there is not really enough data to suggest a strong link.

Most likely the other side effects where the issue.
Welcome to Hillary's America, where men are evil.
>Trump is not a science supporter but altogether a vision of hatred

Trump loves America. He wants to save America from corruption.
Oh, I'm definitely not particularly Stallman. Stallman wouldn't be carrying a Windows phone.
When I read the title of the article, I thought he was talking about publicly supporting Apple and macOS against Microsoft and Windows, and how that had come back to haunt him.

Sigh....
Venice is just rich people trying to pretend they are poor.
I think it's not. First thing people tend to forget is that aside from then nano degrees, they offer a master of science in computer science degree from Georgia Tech (a top 10 CS graduate school) for about $7,000. Sebastian Thrun, Udacity's CEO and founder, ex google VP (developed their self driving car project) and a Stanford professor, initiated it, AT&T donated money and Zvi Galil (college of computing dean) and the GT faculty took the challenge and built it with Udacity's assistance. There are already several graduates, and evidence shows the rigor is ad high as on campus.

It just can't be compared to ITT without having in mind they enabled the world best "ranking to cost" ratio program in the world in my opinion. Source: I'm a GT OMSCS student.
If you're using modern C++ you might consider using SaferCPlusPlus[1] for improved memory safety. Safe, fast compatible direct substitutes for C++'s unsafe elements (pointers, arrays, vectors, even references are technically unsafe). Small, easy to use, no dependency risk, and can be optionally "disabled" with a compile-time directive. It's the best answer to the Rust crowd who (justifiably) point out the inevitability of memory bugs in large enough C++ code bases.

Perhaps you should also try using email. Or SMS. They can do that.
It's not just sponsorship of media companies, it's outright ownership.

Straight from Saudi Arabia's mouth, a billionaire prince owns a significant portion of AOL Time Warner:

This is just one example. People need to do their research and wake up to what's happening around them.
They can already do this, and they don't thanks to

1) Their no-first-use policy

2) Pakistan already having nuclear weapons
But these are healthy men — they're not going to suffer any risks if they get somebody else pregnant.

I don't believe what I'm reading. Give up your life as you know it or live with the guilt of "not being there", + the social and financial stigma that comes with it?

No risks? You must be joking.
You know what feature open source software in general lacks, but buggy, enterprise software has lots of?

Quid pro quo.

I'm not talking money pre se, although I'm sure most enterprise software sales involve the CEO's "second cousin" getting a few dollars. A few games of bikini golf in the Bahamas can get a Fortune 500 company to standardize on the worst version control software in the world, or make using "cron" a firing offence.
One theory for why it isn't acknowledged could be that the creators and trial participants are outside of the Western cultural establishment.

The material was discovered and synthesized in India at IIT by a Indian person. The largest clinical trial on Vasalgel - also in India.

Media coverage doesn't happen organically. In almost all cases it is a two way street, with networks and personal contacts creating the bridge. The researchers in India and the cultural epicenters of the Western media establishment are about as distant as two nodes can be. Discovery and contact between the two parties is probably very hard.

On the other hand if they tied it to a pre-dominant narrative in Western media about India - increasing sexual freedoms or a pathway to population management - and worked with the non-profit institutions that connect back to the nodes of cultural influence in the Western world, they would probably get a decent of amount of earned media coverage.
Trump has courted the white supremacist vote.

In fact, he was just officially endorsed by the KKK's official newspaper... his whopping 2nd newspaper endorsement!
Doesn't 20% seem a bit pedantic? I feel like if you throw a requirement like that into a large bureaucracy only bull shit will come out. Like an "Open source web interface" where only the CSS is posted...

Yes, that does resonate with me. Having control of what and how I build. Never thought of it that way.
Yes sorry i should better explain. What i am interested about is small manufactures that have employees. Right now we employ 3 to 4 people full time.
Doing production is challenging, not because it is hard work but because there is a lot of moving parts. You have to keep track of a many components. That complexity only grows as you add more product. 1 product = 5 components 10 product = 50 components . Then if you included, marketing, customer service , it is a lot to handle.
I think making something locally and selling it directly to customers online is the wave of the future for the developed world. Running such an organization is really challenging. But i think it can all be automated, not by using robots but with software. A software should tell you what to make, when to make it, how much to make of it, and also manage your raw material. This is what we are working on and would love to talk to others that are faced with the same issue.
Stackoverflow-driven development (SDD):

The problem is, the headline may itself be part of the story. "Male Birth Control Study Killed After Men Complain About Side Effects".

I expected better from NPR. At least Cosmo (which also editorialized the headline), made an effort to report the actual numbers.

Here's the report from cosmo "http://www.cosmopolitan.com/health-fitness/a8038748/male-bir...

(along with the helpful sub-tag, "Welcome to the club, dudes. Also: WOMAN UP.", along with a weepy picture from Dawson's Creek).

Welcome to the club, dudes. Also: WOMAN UP.

"From the study: "Of these 20, 6 men discontinued only for changes in mood and 6 men discontinued for the following single reasons: acne, pain or panic at first injections, palpitations, hypertension, and erectile dysfunction." The other eight men dropped out because of mood changes. "

I can't quite tell from this if it's 6, 8, or 14 men who dropped out due to mood changes. Overall, 20/320 dropped out of the study, 6.25%. I did a bit of research and found that median attrition rate for drug studies is 7%, but median isn't especially helpful since effects can vary.

The percentage who dropped out due to mood changes are (it's hard to tell from this well written article) 6/320, 8/320, or 14/320, so somewhere between 1.8%-4.3%.

This becomes the headline "Men Quit Birth Control Study". That's one of the charitable headlines, honestly. The fact that it morphed into this headline, to me, kind of is the story here.

I do think there's clearly a problem with suicide, especially among men, and I do think this is because, to some extent, men are particularly concerned about appearing weak and failing to get help. So a round of mockery about this is also painful to see.
Transparent or not, I'd just prefer to have one main program doing the checks vs. a whole bunch of different vendor's ones doing different checks in different ways at different times.
off topic, but isn't 3DR done?
Respectfully, that sounds like an engineering failure on your part. There are enough similarities in the APIs among different chat systems that the business logic can be easily decoupled from the event loop; had you abstracted the interface, your system would be more easily portable to other providers.
F-16's are old tech, which the US has been selling to its allies for decades. This helps finance continuing improvement, which keeps the US equipped with the best new military tech.
I second LAMP (although you can consider changing Apache for Nginx).

For PHP it depends on what you want to do, but Laravel (or Lumen) may help you A LOT!

It is super boring by these standard:

- You can find setup tutorials everywhere

- Almost every question you might think of has been already answered

- It will do what it says it will do

(Also don't forget to install phpMyAdmin, because who wants to write SQL in a terminal)

At this point people have been talking about 'the future of mobile' for many years and most of the predictions haven't come true.

Just for fun I am going to say by 'the future' I mean fully 10-20 years from now.

The Google Assistant or intelligent/connected chatbot/agent will be in your brain (or maybe somehow just spying on subvocalization nerves/muscle twitches). You will have a brain computer interface (or something) that you use as naturally as breathing or thinking. This will also effectively give everyone telepathic and telekinetic powers.

Installing an app will be like with Amazon Alexa, giving you additional commands/AI capabilities.

Glasses and maybe contact lenses will use eye tracking and transparent OLED microdisplays to augment reality. The phone/BCI is tiny or mainly just a fast wireless transceiver to nearby distributed localized computing clouds.

Smart phones and apps will be for poor people.

Custom fonts and web fonts are fine... if they are stored on the same web server, so they load with the document.

Images are fine... if you specify the width and height so the page doesn't jump around while the page loads.

Menus and top bars that change when you scroll down are never acceptable. It's distracting and unnecessary.

Goofy background and image effects in general are very annoying if they are synced with page scrolling. It reminds me of a child's pop-up book.
A 1957 Ford pickup is going to be an absolute deathtrap in an accident. I'm not sure that's a great example.

Android's cyanogenmod has a "privacy guard" feature , which blocks access for apps for privacy data.

No-one is saying it's not rude. What we're asking is whether it should be illegal. And your own comparisons suggest that it shouldn't be.
"In turn for voicing our concern and opinions about a partner who supports Donald Trump, they got cold, stopped responding altogether afterwards, and needless to say, we were discriminated against, we felt blacklisted "

You are begging for money. Investors have all of the power in this situation. They don't really owe you anything.

"And as investors, you guys have a commitment to do right by founders like us."

Sorry, no they don't.

"We have a strong team but also, a strong set of beliefs. And we for one, do not support the bigotry and hatred that is spread by people like Trump, and the fact that Y Combinator which is supposed to be on the side of the entrepreneur and promote technology and science has taken this stance is shocking and proves that change needs to happen. We ask investors to reconsider where they place their trust."

Guilty by association is a logical fallacy. Should I then conclude that you support rapists because you support Hillary (who fought against the women Bill Clinton abused)?

"Trump is not a science supporter but altogether a vision of hatred against humanity"

Complete hyperbole. You are an example of bigotry and bias that is destroying our society. You can't stand the fact that someone supports something you don't like and want to destroy them publicly.

"This was the first time we ever attempted to be part of a program like this, and if you see our CSO and his resume, it speaks for itself"

Please. Ycombinator doesn't need you more than you need them.

"That we were subjected to discrimination"

So not responding to your ridiculous requests is now considered 'discrimination'.

"and we shouldn’t be punished for it"

You are hardly being punished for anything. Take a look at all of the college professors and professionals that are fired from their jobs for merely speaking their mind.

"The truth is we never have and never will support Trump."

I have money and I would never invest in your company.

This article has shown the world that you are unwilling to compromise. If things don't go your way, you immediately go into hyperbole, name calling, and there is absolutely no empathy for anyone on the other side. From personal experience, you seem like a complete nightmare to work with.

Discrimination didn't cause your lack of response to Ycombinator, your poor behavior did. I hope you learn something from this.

I also find it disheartening that a group that claims to understand what it's like to suffer from discrimination, paints an entire part of the population with the same brush and exhibits the same exact behavior that they claim to be against.

More discrimination will not stop discrimination.

Can you reasonably separate them out when it's a drug that's specific to the gender?

I understand the point you're making, but your parent poster's reasoning sounds eminently reasonable to me.

The thing for men only to address a male problem exacerbates men's tendency to kill themselves?

"Yeah, but men kill themselves more often anyway" seems like the less reasonable argument.

I might be looking from a more... Emotionally involved perspective?
> purely ideological by nature; not against ethnicities, cultures etc (those were in fact actively preserved) - Stalin himself was from a tiny minority nation of Georgians.

It doesn't matter what the official stance was, what matters what happened. My own relatives were sent to Siberia for being ethnic minorities, despite that they fought for the reds with the russian troupes in the finnish civil war. You can make excuses as much as you like that it wasn't because of ethnicity but reality was that ideology didn't matter back then. People are hateful by nature, especially to foreign cultures, taking away the lands that feeds your children and sending all men in your family to Siberian death camp doesn't sound like preserving any minority culture to me.

San Jose at 4 million would have no water pressure. In the bay area, only San Francisco has significant water rights. The rest of the area has to stay low-density.
From what I heard so far, Hillary was helped/favored ovet Sanders in a very obvious but secret way by leaderahip of Democrat. Isn't that a sign of broken Dem?
That's a bad analogy I discovered that I can write in Bernie and have a solid conscience knowing I didn't choose the corrupt politician, the rapist, the hippie Bernie wannabe who has no clue about actually running anything in government, or the always seemingly-high libertarian. - I really wanted to like Jill Stein and vote for but couldn't...I voted democrat for all other tickets in hopes that they were more progressive in general.

As for the new mac stuff I've never been a mac fan, not a win fan either.. I'd much rather have my arch linux builds any day, but I'm not a hardcore gamer or graphic designer either. I'm just a laravel / elixir developer. But I do feel like Apple's lost their way there's just too much negative 'mojo' in the air, they need to pivot and embrace the hard core techies who used to love them, or they'll become irrelevant and it'll be like the 90's again.

Google and microsoft have both had pretty exciting launches this year, there's lots of amazing tech going on in the world today, but when the majority of the stories are negative that can have an effect maybe not today or this quarter, but down the line in 2018 for example.
It's time for Tim Cook to go along with the people responsible for the Mac computers and iPhones.

Apple thinks they are helping by cutting out ports and pushing technology forward, but all they are doing is pissing people off. My iPhone 7 is a joke. I can't charge and talk at the same time or swipe credit cards anymore.

Their whole pro line is a joke. My friend bought a $4000 Mac Pro with 256GB of storage, that's a joke. It also has old hardware and its priced about $1000 more than it should be. Apple could still make a healthy profit at $3000 for the same machine since its even overpriced at $3000. How is this a pro machine?

Now with the macbook pro. Pros want ports. They are the ones that use them. Some pros even want more than 16GB of RAM which I feel is standard for non pros. I really hope things change because this is ridiculous.
I wonder how they will determine which open source projects are included at code.gov. For instance, I contribute to a few projects that are used within government for determining the economic impacts of fiscal policy, and the code is in the public domain. I'd love for them to be included at code.gov, but I'm not sure whether they meet the criteria.
It's not, but it's far from proven technology. Additionally, it's the exact opposite of most medical research - fairly inexpensive to develop (a few millions USD total), but also with very little profit upside on the other end.

I recommend giving Antergos a try it's based on Arch Linux, and I'd also recommend i3wm - it's a tiled window manager that makes your workspace seem like you're in vim i.e. tons of shortcuts and hardly need to touch the mouse, and it's extremely low on memory/ram resource usage.

But if the treatment appears to cause severe mood swings in some cases, would that not suggest there's a good chance that it was a factor in the two suicide attempts (one successful)? Or is it counterintuitive?
Not me, I'm sticking with Apple even though I mostly run Win10 on my Macbooks. I looked at the alternatives and they are either crappy build quality, huge heavy bricks, or just as expensive as the Macbooks. Might as well stick with Apple since I trust their hardware.
How is it not a selling point? GPUs aren't cheap, someone has to develop the IP, drivers and support tools.

I totally get a 2D accelerator being standard but 3D is complex enough and has such a steep curve for building content/using it correctly that I don't see why you'd include it by default.

[edit]

There's also a only a few ways to do 3D reasonably on embedded at low power and you're probably going to run afoul of all the patents in the space if you try to build your own IP.
