This isn't universal - a good friend of mine works for a team that is getting shipped off to IBM as part of a merger, and told to apply for the new IBM jobs if they want to keep working there. Ignoring the ugliness of that situation for the moment, he specifically asked about this news of remote work ending as it relates to how coding jobs would be impacted, and was told that the jobs he was applying for were intended to remain remote.

All the news I have seen has been about the marketing team, and my story is just one team, so I have no real idea what the big picture is, but it seems to be more nuanced than what we are reading about in the news.

> So, they have taken a group of homosexuals, without any history of leadership

I believe the study made up backgrounds of the "candidates" to suggest they were qualified for the job, it wasn't like they just brought in someone off the street and asked a bunch of people "would you hire them as CEO"
Ask HN: How did you figure out what to work on?
I wonder how many people check this site waiting for something to inspire them. I have several years experience as a developer in multiple languages, but I don't know what I want to spend my time working on. I visit this site looking for new projects, groups, or languages that light up an imaginary light bulb above my head or have a missing puzzle piece that I fit. How common is this? It doesn't work. How did you figure out what to work on?

$100 million on marketing and billboards etc. $18 million actually raised. That was 2007.
Why They Feel Left Out
They took men and women who were both gay and straight and demonstrated a bias in expected leadership ability based on perceived sexual orientation. They are not comparing charisma, the voice selected where selected specifically to have a high likelyhood of being attributed as gay or straight.

Arguing that a difference in outcome from this is because CEOs all sound charismatic and that they are able to pick up attention of a crowd better when there is a demonstrated bias between the two when the difference involved is specifically whether a voice is perceived as gay or straight implies that gay speakers are less likely to have those characteristics. Which is exactly what the paper's conclusion is, a bias against people who are perceived as gay for leadership positions based on their voice.

We investigated this issue in four studies (overall N = 276), conducted in Italian language,
in which heterosexual listeners were exposed to single-sentence voice samples of gay/lesbian
and heterosexual speakers. In all four studies, listeners were found to make gender-typical
inferences about traits and preferences of heterosexual speakers, but gender-atypical inferences
about those of gay or lesbian speakers. Behavioral intention measures showed that listeners
considered lesbian and gay speakers as less suitable for a leadership position, and male
(but not female) listeners took distance from gay speakers. Together, this research demonstrates
that having a gay/lesbian rather than heterosexual-sounding voice has tangible consequences for
stereotyping and discrimination.
The scenario you describe is not at all like the situation at hand. Data corruption and encryption are not the same thing as encryption is a fully reversible process.

Further, the owner of the drive is not in a legal or moral grey area. They are in a "black" area where it's quite clear that they are being intentionally deceptive in defiance of a court order.
Raise 1 million without advertising or executives => 1M for charity

Raise 2 million with 25% going to advertising+execs => 1.5M for charity

Raise 10 million with 80% going to advertising and executives => 2M for charity

Which one is better? From the point of view of the people who need it the latter, so where do we draw the line? Can we draw any line?

IMHO doing something that helps others does not mean you have to do it for free unless it's done under false pretenses. There is probably an equilibrium for maximizing the money raised for the cause where advertising and execs expenses are NOT 0.

It's quite obvious the Pixel is the "flagship" Android Google phone. And Pixel C is the "flagship" Android tablet.

The pixel is advertised everywhere as a Google phone. Who makes it doesn't really come up in their product communication much.

And the 'flagship' label is literally in the title of the Pixel products on Amazon. And on the website it's called "Pixel, phone by Google".

> People buy a low end Android phone and hate the entire ecosystem because the phone performs like crap.

This seems like an antiquated view of Android. I don't think people see Apple as having a monopoly on luxury/quality devices anymore. And considering the heavy OS modifications made by different companies and the entire UX experience of dealing with a company (customer service, website, accessories, etc), I don't really see why it matters if your mom thinks she has a "Samsung" or an "LG". There's more to Android phones than the base OS.
Character creation is the whole game
In this case, the 3rd circuit applied the same standard as the 11th (the government can compel decryption if they know what is on the drive), so it doesn't yet create a circuit split.

However, they don't decide that that is the right standard. In a footnote they suggest that the correct standard would be more lax (the government can compel decryption if they know the person knows the password). So if a case comes up where they rule that way, it would create a circuit split and lead the supreme court to take the case.

Orin Kerr writes a column about it here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/201...
That quote sounds like common smack-talk rather than a genuine statement of intent. I think you could hang "intent to do the victim harm" on the combination of that and the actions here. But, actual intent to cause death? I'd want to see much more than mention of dying - "do that and I'll kill you" or "I hope you die", or similar, must have been said a trillion times in situations where actual death was _not_ intended.

Not sure if you're aware of this, but punishments are meted differently to 10-year-olds compared to adults. The suspect in this case was a 29-year-old man. And "most young kids are probably afraid of guns" sounds like something said by someone who didn't grow up in a rural state.

For people on Hacker News, sure. But try asking your grandma what the flagship Android phone is and what the flagship Apple phone is. It is much more confusing for the average person than you'd think.

> I don't really see why it matters if your mom thinks she has a "Samsung" or an "LG".

Because when people ask if she has an Android she says "No."

> There's more to Android phones than the base OS.

I know, that's my complaint. It really adds nothing for the customer to have it be so fragmented.
I think the sexuality bit is getting shoehorned in here, though. I'd want to see evidence that the study used charismatic, "big" voices that were judged as both straight and gay and still show that there is a bias against those perceived as gay.

Not only that but especially for CEO, hiring decisions are not made in a vacuum like this. Were the participants given mock resumes and career history? In an actual hiring process, again especially for CEO, the folks on Board responsible almost certainly would be familiar with the candidates' previous work, and probably know them already.
Scroll jacking is a terrible practice.

1) It's intrusive and destroys the user experience which ironically is what it pretends to enhance.

2) Even if it feels right on the designer's machine, we never know what scrolling implementations there may be in the future that will certainly break such gimmicks.
I'm the same - it's so much 'cleaner' in the white.. Although I'm stuck with my 6S since they removed the headphone jack on the new models.
This is only part of their motivation. The other is that the prosecutor likely wants to avoid setting a precedent that future defendants can cite in their defense.
Ask HN: What happens to commuter transit benefits after separation?
After a large round of layoffs at my company, there were a number of people who had commuter transit benefits (and HSAs) that were lost. Who is profiting from our people being laid off, and how is it actually legal?

For anyone unfamiliar with transit benefits or health savings accounts, they are a fringe benefit where an employee pays their own money into them (pre-tax) to have access to these funds for public transit/parking and medical expenses. These are not company funds or government funds, these are funds deposited by the employee.

Upon separation with a company, you no longer have access to any funds you deposited into this account. Does anyone know where this money goes?
That's too bad. I really like my Mini 2.

Marissa Mayer did the same thing shortly after getting to Yahoo. I think the results there speak for themselves. There's never a case where a move like this will boost morale or attract/keep top talent. IMO moves like this are all about showing dominance and being a "person of action."

ARM recently added a similar wide vector instruction called SVE which works similarly. But yes, that way of doing vectors is really cool.

Well, you could choose to make your path being homeless, but there usually is less satisfaction in that choice.

I'm not sure if you read the article, but it talked about schooling, preparing the skills needed to meet goals that would match his dreams, thinking about those goals, seeking them out. It wasn't just, "Oh, I gotta go get paycheck." It might be unfortunate that we need money to live in our society, but nevertheless it is reality, so talking about how to make the best of it seems like a worthwhile discussion to me.

What You Need to Conquer to Be a Drone Journalist in Texas
Seriously; everyone is talking about jumping ship from Apple's products, all doom and gloom, but I'm coming from the opposite direction. I do not like or use Apple products unless my work strenuously requires me to.

But the dearth of offerings in high-quality laptops under 13.3" is astonishing. While I personally prefer the 10.1" form factor, I think that Apple is onto something with pushing a 12" 'daily driver' model for people who want a power/portability compromise between a Chromebook and a 13-15" workhorse.

So if Apple came out with something like that which had more than a single port, I'd probably jump on board with it. If they don't, I think that Chromebooks may take the market within a few years. Right now you need to do a bit of tinkering to turn them into fully-fledged computers, but Google's been adding some really cool features, both official and unofficial.
The offline feature is on our task list, but we haven't got time to mark it as done yet.

BTW, libsodium is pretty cool! We are using it to sign our html bundle before delivering it to app. Though we are still testing it, our sodiumed version should come within weeks.
Nitpick: That color scheme was available first with the iPhone 3G. Mine is still kicking around somewhere.
The title makes a bold claim but the article does not back it up, the main argument about it being harder is that you are losing a companion that provided uncritical unconditional love. I suppose humans can be quite critical. That aspect may be true but I have lost my dad and my dog and the loss of my dad is infinitely more harder, no question - I still think about him every single day, I don't do the same for my dog, who I also loved very much.

One aspect of the death of my dog that was very hard was that I had to make the decision to go ahead with euthanasia at the vet, because he could not longer get up and was in pain (he just lay on his side due to his extreme stage of cancer). That was hard, knowing that I made the decision to end his life at that moment, that haunted me and I wish he had just died by himself. That is hard, but it's the complexity of a human relationship and the critical feedback and love that we get from a human loved one that allows us to grow and learn and a big reason I think why I miss my human relatives more than my dog.

The point made was that it's idiotic because bombs can be shoved into anything. Copy pasting the same bit about the likely existence of laptop bombs only matters if you believe that 1. it's harder to use something other than a laptop, or 2. moving a bomb to the luggage compartment will help.

We couldn't disagree more if we tried ;) I've had way worse experiences with over-engineered, off-the-shelf, general-purpose solutions; there is plenty of room for simplification. And there's nothing wrong with owning your code, especially for something as fundamental as testing. The framework presented in the post clocks in at 300 lines of C, there's not much to document really. I would prefer spending my energy elsewhere, but uUnit and others lack what I consider fundamental features and try too hard to steal the show.
How would the border agents know it's a wiped device? Because it's missing everything and seems like a new phone?

What if I actually bought a new cheap phone because I'm afraid of getting robbed abroad, and even tell the agent?

I ask because I would think that being afraid of losing your expensive phone on a leisure trip is common enough and harmless enough (and totally real reason) that it wouldn't provoke or trigger an agent.

Or am I being delusional?
Well that all sounds nice and dandy, but imagine you don't find new clients or they don't pay your invoices or you get seriously sick or something in your private life needs all your attention.

I'm a lecturer/prof in Sweden and we have had this law for years. We own all our own IP. In other top tier Universities around the world the norm is that the university takes 20-50% of the IPR/equity. Needless to say that we are very happy with it (lärareundantag). However, a word of caution: it doesn't seem to make any difference when attracting top talent. My experience is that even in Systems Research, candidates don't factor it into their decisions. They just think - UK or Switzerland or Sweden. Because of that, i don't think it will catch on.

55 TV series to speak fluently.

This was very interesting. For ease of numbers lets say that this means 20 episodes at 30 minutes per episode, so about 10 hour per series.

And, in addition, did he watch it with subtitles or not?

I can't help being somewhat cynical and jaded on this one. I tend to think that people become wealthy through

(3) working hard and the equivalent of winning the lottery, being rewarded for that hard work

I believe that I could maybe relate to the people in category 3.

Not really. Take your 30 minutes of exercise per week that will reduce the chance of dying by 1% (2% is for the forrest gumps). Let's say you can do that by spending 60 minutes a day (changing clothes, getting dressed / undressed, showered and so on). In a 52-week year that will amount to loss of 156 hours of your life. For 8-hour work days that's 19.5 workdays. A good vacation's worth! No drug is allowed to do that.

And if you break your ankle or break your wrist or elbow when exercising, it'll never be as good as new.

I've seen good people get fired for what seem like purely political reason (in California). They got a month of severance but come on. My father worked for a handful of companies his entire career and had true loyalty for them. The company, in turn, took care of him his whole life. This does not exist anymore in the private sector. If your org seems to have it, I'm sorry to tell you that it might change one day (and very abruptly). I've seen this happen to places that were considered unassailable.
