However ideal it would be to have more female representation in the tech field, I don't see this specific story as a 'success.' All-female recruitment cycles just seem more drastic and worse than quotas, although the increased female applicants is a positive and shows many don't even apply out of feeling intimidated or inadequate in the tech world due to their gender.

Only interviewing females definitely lacks meritocracy, but we could test this gender-exclusivity at an earlier age to encourage more female applicants to apply into a fair, meritocratic job application process.

The increased engagement of female applicants in this has definitely affected my opinion (positively) on the usefulness of female-only code camps and things of that sort.
Are the permissions necessary to add a key to the local trusted store significantly less powerful than the permissions necessary to modify kernel memory?

For instance, can adding a key to the local trusted store allow someone to forge a windows update?
That is an interesting thought, for such a remote area. I have no idea if it would work. I also don't know how much energy would be needed to change the magnetic feild enough. The earth is, afterall, one hellovabig magnet. Most magnets won't move a compas more than an arms length away.
Exactly. It had less "chatbot" functionality than zork did.
I'm in the same boat as you, I'm literally 3 minutes walk from work.

I walk to the supermarket every day (which is about 10 minutes each way), and probably spend 10 minutes wandering around inside even if I don't need to buy anything (I'll find something to buy), just to stretch my legs.

For sure if I spent over 30 minutes each way to work, I'd be less inclined to spend a lot of time at the supermarket.

technically it's defined as 0.01°C being the triple point of water. And since the solid-liquid boundary in the phase diagram[0] is relatively stable across wide pressure ranges that means that 0°C being the melting point is not just true at a single pressure value.

Even that wouldn't solve it completely. If you look at horse racing, the 'going' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Going_(horse_racing) ) hugely affects results. Similarly, in running, some people run better at height, others in the rain, etc.
> Every time I think I understand Javascript, I read something about its prototypes and constructors and how 'new' and 'this' works and I am lost again.

Prototypes, constructors, and context are not that complicated; I encourage you to keep reading and trying things. You may be surprised how quickly you end up "getting" it.

> The thing I like about classes is I vaguely understand what is going on and why, coming from Java and similar.

No. The class keyword in JS is syntactic sugar around the same prototype stuff that already existed. It does not work like it does in Java, and you will not understand what it's doing unless you understand how the class keyword translates directly into manipulating the prototype chain.

Which, as above, is easy! But if there's one actual problem with the class keyword it's that it makes people who know Java think they understand JS inheritance.

The class keyword DOES NOT CHANGE YOUR CODE. If you didn't understand what was going on before you used the class keyword, you don't understand it after adding it in. (Conversely, if you actually do understand how the class keyword works, then rejoice, you now understand how prototypes work...)
I wouldn't be a programmer today if my high school chemistry teacher hadn't offered an elective in QBasic programming and basic CS as well. Or if she hadn't let me take that class six times over, feeding me more programming books and going to bat to get the school to let me take the AP test.

Wikileaks to team with tech giants to defeat CIA hacking?
TL;DR Adding a specific species of seaweed to bovine and sheep diets reduces their methane production by 99 percent and 70 percent, respectively. Easy win. Far easier than convincing the developed world to cut meat consumption. (EDIT: I have not explored the difficulty level of cultivating this species of seaweed in an aquaponics setup, but its on my TODO list.)

"An obvious solution to the problem, of course, is to simply give up raising cattle and eating beef. Gidon Eshel, professor of environmental physics at New York’s Bard College, in a recent research paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, calculated that each American who drops beef-eating saves us the annual emissions equivalent of burning 61 gallons of gas or 580 pounds of coal. Better yet, go vegan, since dairy cows not only produce more methane than beef cattle, but outnumber them by a ratio of 10 to 1 in the United States.

Or we could start adding a sprinkle of seaweed to livestock feed.

The crucial research, by Robert Kinley of CSIRO and Rocky De Nys, professor of aquaculture at Australia’s James Cook University, and colleagues, involved testing some 20 different species of seaweed in artificial cow stomachs—that is, a mix of rumen and microbes that mimics the behavior of a cow stomach in a bottle. When grass or feed is added to this in vitro tummy, fermentation takes place and the scientists are able to measure the resulting methane output. In the presence of Asparagopsis taxiformis—described by De Nys as “a real stand-out” among the tested seaweeds— methane production was cut by 99 percent. Experiments in sheep showed that if dried Asparagopsis taxiformis seaweed made up just 2 percent of total feed, methane emissions drop by 70 percent. It can be added as a sprinkle, De Nys says, just as you might add a smattering of herbs to roast chicken."

Why math is strangling videogame morality
Very nice. It really took me just 10s seconds to sign up and clone a repo. I believe this kind of easy of setup should be much more common - across many domains and languages.

That said, details will matter in the longer run. The markdown and code rendering on github has gotten such a large amount of attention over the years, that it's hard to compete.
And 'survive' is something far different than 'grow'.
Thanks! And that should be do-able. All the examples show an avatar but you don't have to use one, you could just use the library to sync the active 360 image or environment.
In college, I had a crush on a girl.. I believed she was my soul mate. Unfortunately, long story short, after years of trying to get her, even dated for a short stint, it just didn't work out. She was so much into her own life and on this path that would -- almost prevent her from having any boyfriends for as long as I've known her -- she is so goal-oriented and focused, that just seems to be her priorities -- but for some reason, I will always have that feeling that she was my soul mate. Anyways, she continues to be and remain an inspiration for me to want to be a better person. I still think of her. We talk seldom, maybe once or twice a year just to update each other, but unfortunately, probably just best for both of us.. there's like this intense interest there but it won't go anywhere because she is so independent and wants to live that "freestyle life" without being in any committed relationship. Whereas she is an extrovert, I'm more introverted. Guess it was just meant to be that way.

Then... years later, I had gotten this programming job and met the woman of my dreams, who also worked in the office, and it did take her a few months to get me to notice her. She didn't give up and we went out and things just worked out well. She keeps pushing me and inspires me and encourages me to be the best I can be. Still together and in our 7th year... I've created a few websites, started up a freelance business, and currently working on starting up a business, and she is also learning virtual reality programming, augmented reality programming, so she is just as encouraged and inspired by me as I am by her. I support her in anything she does -- I've seen her come up with ideas, invest some money, and even invested some money with her, only for her to lose interest, but she keeps going at it. I think she definitely found her calling with virtual reality.. she is so obsessed with it.

I'm sure I'd still be doing my thing without her, but having a woman there to support my dreams and be someone to talk to helps a lot.

> I can no longer proudly claim the West is free. We are living in a surveillance state.

Anarchy is the only true freedom. Any social contract (i.e. government) limits freedom.

Still, saying the west is not free is disingenuous. One can still have many freedoms in a surveillance state. For example, I can criticize Trump without fear of being sent to a labor camp in a surveillance state. I can attempt to spread my religious beliefs without being randomly kidnapped.
The message stated that after 7.3.3 it will check, you might have an earlier version. Im equally unimportant.

Because migration is super expensive and a big part of what's preventing the movement to ARM servers. Also, the aforementioned case hasn't necessarily happened, Keller has spent forever making Zen better. They are still working on K12 IIRC, but Ryzen, for good reason, is the focus. Besides, CPUs are more and more becoming simply host systems.

Ask HN: Are you interested in a ARM CI service?
Some time ago I bought a Raspberry Pi and started using it for my hobby projects. The problem was that my normal workflow is: code something in my PC, push it to GitHub, and test it with Travis (and build a docker image with DockerHub). The problem is this solution doesn't work well when targeting ARM. DockerHub does not compile ARM projects and Travis runs in x86.

After searching a lot I found that my best option was using a self-hosted CI, but Jenkins, the one I know best, is not an option because of the lack of memory in the Raspberry. So what I did was to create my own CI server in Golang that could run with really low memory usage and I thought it might be very useful for other people.
I would relly love to offer it as a service or make it open source.

Would you be interested in a project like this?
The specific heat is also important, not just temperature.

You also have to look at refining (it takes a huge amount of energy to produce raw aluminum) and recycling (steel is really, really recyclable).

My wife sends me on a 30 minute drive to the grocery store and asks for things I've never heard of, and for other stuff I can't find. I waste an hour away from my kids and don't find everything she needs.

Compared to shopping online, it's quite inefficient.
An all-female recruitment cycle could also be called a no-male recruitment cycle, but I suppose that wouldn't sound good.

Direction from the top of the company followed by accountability from everyone will probably move toward any desired outcome, but I contend that the main issue is that most companies secretly don't believe that "percentage of female engineers" is a goal worth pursuing to the exclusion of hiring as much top talent as possible.

My guess on this experiment is that the company didn't hire as much talent as they could have otherwise because of such strict quota measures, and that this isn't something most companies are going to jump to do. Most companies just want to succeed.

3. Repeat for each digit

Walmart fundamentally doesn't give a crap about the customer, and it shows. They know that at 2am, they are the only place your gonna be able to buy bedding, a cable modem, etc. and thus will staff the front end with 1 cashier to deal with a line of 20+ customers.

Returns are even worse, they will not comply with the store policy they have clearly printed on the signage behind them (eg: Store credit for an airbed that was defective and brought back the same day).

That being said, Amazon is sitting much worse with me than Walmart right now, over the past year I've had issues with 1/3rd of the products I've ordered off Amazon (bad mouse, Evo+ card performing at 6MB/s when rated for 25MB/s), and I'd never shop at any of the Amazon brick & mortar stores going up in Ballard or other parts of the city due to this. Amazon would likely sell me e.coli covered veggies at their current success rate.
I was made aware of that by the body shop who is doing the repairs. I plan on filing just as soon as I get the car back, which looks to be soon.

I've still own a North Face down jacket I received as a birthday gift 45 years ago. It doesn't fit me any more and could use a good cleaning but it is still wearable and useful for keeping warm. I also had a tent I used regularly for more than 20 years under all kinds of weather until the floor finally gave out. They made really quality stuff back in the day, expensive, yeah, but it lasted.
Surely it does: you have much more combinations in animated GIF than static GIF so it is easier to make "unvisible" changes to the file to get the MD5 hash displayed on final GIF slide.
It looks like the archway is filled with holes for candles. Lighting for meetings could not have been as trivial a task as it was for the researchers, who seem to have been able to toss down some cheap super bright LEDs(?).

Consider it me paying forward the joy I got from Fork Yeah!, which is still somewhere in my top 10 tech-talks of all time. :)
My understanding about the how:

- 'this' is based on how you call something, not what it is attached to. It's possible to have a.fn and b.fn be the same function with 'this' referring to each object in turn when you call a.fn() and b.fn().

- Function.bind muddies the waters a little bit, but basically that creates a wrapper that forces 'this' to a particular object.

- a 'class' in js is a function with a prototype property pointing to a parent object / parent class instance (not a class)

- new fn() creates an object, assigns the prototype, and runs fn.call(obj)

- obj.prop walks the chain of prototypes attached to obj until it finds 'prop' on one of the instances

As to the why, the idea is that the core object is the function, not the class, and prototypes are a way of conveniently determining the context a function is executed in. There is no such thing as a class in js, only a class-like syntax to wrangle functions and objects.

There's an interesting example from the most unlikely of sports - curling.

In 2015, Hardline Curling launched a radical new design of curling broom called the icePad. Their broom can alter ice with tremendous efficiency, allowing players to make previously impossible shots. Many players described the icePad broom as "like having a remote control for the stone".

Leading teams voluntarily agreed to a temporary moratorium on the new style of broom. Following an international summit on the issue, the decision was made to standardise on a single type of traditional broom fabric. The consensus was that the new broom technology had fundamentally changed the nature of the sport for the worse, diminishing the importance of skill and athleticism.

Pretty much, Debian moved forward to recompiling for ARMv7 as it netted significant performance improvements, and if you wanted ARMv6 binaries you could compile them yourself. Raspbian did this, but not very well.

Different versions of the ARM architecture with different ABIs. From the Debian POV that's a separate architecture to support. It could have been done by Debian, but was done by a third party, just as other minor platforms are supported.

I don't agree that it has a "different experience" because the tools and infrastructure are there to build the entire distribution from scratch. And this was done. I've done it myself several times. Once done, this architecture variant had the complete package set available for all the official supported architectures, bar any architecture-specific packages being added/omitted. Third parties can and do bootstrap and maintain entire architectures. I can't speak for the raspbian people and their port, but it's not hard to manually bootstrap the kernel and toolchain and then set an autobuilder loose on the entire source archive.

And that's the point I was trying to make about Windows; that's exactly what you can't obtain. Be it the old NT ports or the present day ones, outside the base "Windows" release and some key products, the rest of Microsoft's product portfolio is largely missing.
