The veracity of China's economics reporting is wwidely questioned:

China’s recent economic weakness has revived questions about the quality of its economic data. Critics charged that official statistics overstated the economy’s growth and understated inflation in China’s economy. The recent complaints followed a long period of questioning whether China, a developing country and authoritarian state, has the institutional capacity and political will to publish accurate statistics. Because China is now the world’s second-largest economy, and is suffering from economic imbalances, the debate carries more weight than in the past.

> Choosing to prioritize children over career reasonably impacts career trajectory.

I don't think the impact is reasonable. Try taking a year or two off work while your kids are little. The reaction you'll get to your resume gap is completely out of proportion with whatever atrophy your professional skills might suffer in that time.
As others have pointed out, this does not really emulate the Rust borrow checker. You can still have multiple references and pointers to the same object.

IIRC then this is somewhat the case, the bell curve for IQ points is "flatter" for men, there is more tendency to go into extremes, while women tend to have a tighter distribution.[1]

This does however not mean that there is a vast majority in either extreme, rather that if you look for the extreme ends of the spectrum, you will find that one sex is over-represented.

Python has a suite of facilities exactly for this very kind of problem.

There is no other country on the American continents with America in its name.
That's google essentially rendering the value-proposition of their bootloader-unlockable phones to be a negative one.

Wth would I pay extra for a Nexus/Pixel if unlocking it causes all Android software which uses DRM to start failing due to "not being compatible"?

Might as well buy a Samsung then. Or even better: an iPhone.

It's no longer your device anyway.

And to think Android was once open source. Now it's infected with DRM all the way down to the bootloader.

Such a shame. There are no free devices anymore.

Edit: to clear I've always been OK with DRM in apps (as opposed to HTML) because that clearly isolates it from the general purposey bits of the platform. Seems that's no longer the case with Android.
The meta argument I am trying to make is that recent arguments about this have shifted to including accounting for jobs (and usually experience levels), since jecjec was claiming that it's still the antiquated version that does not account for any of those things. If you want to have a discussion about the quality of any of those articles or the studies they're based on, well, that's a different discussion entirely, I present these as evidence that the discussion has moved, not that any of them are correct.

That's not very realistic. Besides, the technology that would enable something like hardware DRM also has some legitimate uses in security. The same tech can ensure that your banking app isn't compromised even if the OS itself is compromised.
I think that the global root of the problem is that we as a society do not recognize raising children as an extremely important work that should be respected and compensated. All the gaps will be fixed once there will be the way for women to get compensated for taking risk of child birth and linked reduction of career opportunities. Women do take a lot of risk, just not of the type companies pay for, and there is probably no way to make companies fully cover it. So the question is who and how should do it. Maybe some kind of basic income especially for this purpose would work. It is actually weird that while the idea of the basic income is so widespread, there are no equally popular ideas of using it to fix the gender wage gap problem.
You're free to do what you want on your own time of course. The important difference is that the company can't expect you to work more. This prevents a culture of overtime from developing.
What's the difference? The first Red Scare was 3 years of isolated domestic violent agitation, and public response was largely focused on those agitators. The second Red Scare was a 50-year ideological war that saturated the nation, a generation raised demonizing concepts as "un-American" before becoming the teachers and politicians of their children. It takes time heal from that dogma.

On the average of millions of privately arranged employment agreements, the employee's marginal value absolutely (slightly) exceeds their salary. You have to make a strong case that the labor market does not exhibit the properties of close to perfect competition: there are many buyers, and many sellers, of labor.

Sure, there are obviously exceptions to this calculation in both directions: how else can you explain Marissa Mayer's severance package? How else can you explain DHH's wage of $0 for maintaining Ruby on Rails?

If you can make a compelling case on this topic you can probably get published in major academic journals.
I take the point about the non-replication of experiments, but I cannot see how will-power could not be limited.

Our brains have evolved to minimize energy use and all the faculties they manifest: attention, will-power, imagination, creativity, critical-thinking, decision-making etc are parts of a finite budget of energy (glucose), and other resources like metal ions, enzymes & RNAs.

Thinking of will-power as an unlimited resource is a vestige of spiritual-thinking which denies the mechanistic nature of the brain.

There's another way in which will-power is constrained though: the inherited set of parameters that control the rates of production of neurotransmitters. Some people simply cannot ever achieve the levels of focus that others can, no matter how hard they try.
Feminism is about behavioral engineering because we live in a winner-take-all society, and even sexism that falls short of "obvious inequalities" can hold people back dramatically. We live in a world where it's just easier for couples to have the woman be the primary caregiver, because of social pressures. Every school, doctor, etc. has my wife and I write down our work numbers. Nobody ever calls me first. I did the entire application process for my daughter's pre-K, and they still called my wife first to remind us to submit the enrollment contract. Merely not leaving your family makes you an above median father in society's eyes. But god forbid you're a mother who doesn't think it's a priority to shuffle your kid from activity to activity all week.

>>The gender wage gap does exist. It's simply a fact that women earn less than men.

Not for the same work it does not.

When you actually look at the data the vast majority of the so called gap is directly attributable to field of work. Right or wrong Teaching, Social Work,Child Care and Nursing pay less than Executives, Programming, STEM Fields, etc.

There is now more than ever more opportunities for women to enter these higher paying fields, many many many still choose not to. Do you advocate for forcing Women into STEM vocation against their will?

The combination of pushing breastfeeding and giving women much longer maternity leave starts things off in the wrong foot. I did all the night feedings for my daughter.

So is it gender discrimination when 2 people with the same experience of the same gender have different wages because that happens all the time.

I have personally seen wide pay discrepancies between 2 people of the same gender for a variety of reasons. Timing in the market, Nepotism/Favortism due to personal connections, better negotiating skills etc
The point is that 2.4% is within the error of such a survey. So effectively the result of the survey is that there is no pay gap.

This is an entirely self inflicted problem. Breastfeeding has few proven long term benefits.[1] I did all the night feedings for my daughter and I barely had to wake up. Throw some formula powder in room temperature water and you're ready to go. An entire generation was raised that way (almost nobody in the 70s and 80s breastfed) and they turned out fine.

[1] The benefits ascribed to breastfeeding tend to evaporate when you account for socioeconomic factors: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277953614...

PS: I have always thought that mothership should be rewarded much higher by society, e.g. through tax breaks, or even real money payout. In the end, people with no kids have an unfair advantage as they can earn more money while mums are at least contributing at the same level to society and should thus be rewarded.

Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS)
Your comment is confused. The first sentence states flatly that the wage gap doesn't exist, and then in the second paragraph you launch into a reason that explains part of its existence.

Construction is male dominated and pays more than an elementary school teacher. Why is that? Are men pressured to risk their health in order to earn more? Are women expected to earn less than their full potential for some reason? Does society simply devalue "womens work" regardless of it's importance (it's hard to argue educating children is unimportant for society).

None of these explanations are great, we can do better as a culture.
AFAICS everybody has been doing that long before Intel, so in their defense they're just following precedent.

But yes, outside of carefully tuned kernels (e.g. GEMM and FFT), you're not going to see a 2x speedup. But that's no different from many other ISA extensions.
I totally reject your frame of "women earn less than men." Mainly because 'earnings' are not the only thing people should be measured by. They should probably be the LAST.

Women do productive things that are harder to account for in standard GDP metrics. Does GDP count the implied value of rearing a child? The years of care that go into motherhood? Does GDP go up $40 when a mom teaches a young child some words for an hour? It would if it was a tutor but it doesn't when it's just a parent.

The frame of "women earn less than men" is used to implicitly degrade the life choices of women. I personally just learned that a friend's mom is a foster mother. That is an incredible level of generosity that is outside of my comprehension. Is her being a foster mother worthless because it isn't in wage statistics? She earns a modest income by accounting standards, but the actual value she creates is much higher. Should we tell her to learn to code instead?

> On the average of millions of privately arranged employment agreements, the employee's marginal value absolutely (slightly) exceeds their salary.

Are you saying this based on data? The actual labor market is very different from the abstract, perfectly competitive microeconomics model. It's hard to even figure out what the marginal value of a person's work is, not to mention the lack of perfect information, the difficulty of firing, the expectations around raises and pay cuts, people's varying self-conceptions of their own worth, …
On average they are. However, if the game was skill based, like playing chess for money instead of coin flipping, then it would be easy for gamblers to get an edge by being skilled enough. If we consider investing more like playing chess than coin flipping, then in the r = g scenario, the economy would reward smart investors with huge profits. Dumb investors would lose all their money. As it should be.

Right, but an important point here is "some highly dynamic language features make analysis really imprecise or really hard". Not all "late bindings" are born equal. JavaScript's dispatch is very different from Java's from a static analysis perspective, the latter being almost indistinguishable from pattern matching.
> I think they will, in time.

But they don't, regardless of your beliefs. This isn't about expectations or wishes. That data is in, and the most developed and most egalitarian countries (scandinavian) have the greatest self-segregation. And the less developed and the less egalitarian the country, the less the self-segregation, pretty much linearly.

Incidentally, this also explains the drop in female CS enrollment over time. I think we can all agree that the past was less equal than the present. So if your theory were correct, CS enrollment of women would have increased, compared to the past. However, CS enrollment of women has decreased, and people have been twisting themselves into pretzels trying to explain this via the "oppression" narrative. However, no such pretzel-logic is required if you accept the data: men have, on average, different preferences than women, and as societies get more free, those differences express themselves more. Easy peasy.

> mostly male main characters

But why is that? Is it because people don't want to look at women? Or is it because males tend, strongly, towards riskier behavior that makes for more plausibly interesting story lines? I think you are confusing cause and effect.

> Most people to idolize in tech are male.

Most people in tech are male, because of self-segregation, and therefore the ones that people will idolize will also be predominantly male. Factor in the fact that males tend to be much more prone to risk-taking, and the effect should probably be even larger than it is.

Men are on average a couple of years older in a relationship (https://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/whats-the-average-age-di...).

That extra few years of career growth can provide a strong financial incentive for the woman to become the primary caregiver, after which the salary differences snowball.
