I do not share your view at all.
Perhaps having a diverse point from yours, will be labeled a 'hate speech' or some other form of left-propaganda-consistent labeling. I hope not, however.

US citizens just elected the best choice of the leader, that will stop blatant misuse of US's foreign intelligence services.

That will stop one-sided indoctrination of the kids in public schools.

The president, that will protect American IT workers from unfair global competition in their own local market space.

And a president, that will finally do what he was promising to do.. I bet it is refreshing for folks that voted for him.

I also hope, but this is far fetched, that he will get USA out of supporting UN [0].
While I am very much for a number of goals that UN is meant to achieve, the current organization is a disgrace.

So if you think that being monitored and unmasked without reason by CIA or FBI -- is your civil right, then, yes, you are out of luck with Trump.

Back to the original topic, I would stand with the defendant in this case. Any data initially collected by a centralized service provider, (when the person of interest was not, yet a suspect), for technical purposes of running a service, cannot be used for marketing, criminal investigation or anything else.

> suddenly the movement is about social issues and body cameras.

The movement has always, from day one, been about social issues (with equal accountability foremost among those issues.)

Assuring that killers of blacks, law enforcement or otherwise, are held to account until and unless there is clear evidence of justification is central, however, to that.

> A movement genuinely pushing for reasonable police reform and replacing lead pipes (for all people of all colors) would be much better received.

Movements along both those lines exist and have for longer than BLM, and have beeb generally ignored (conversely, attention driven by BLM has been successful at driving general police reforms.) Those others are not much better received, no matter how many times concern trolls trot out the line that if only BLM wasn't about Black Lives it would somehow magically be better at advancing it's interests and incidentally better at other things, to.
iOS doesn't do "traditional" swap though. Once memory runs low, apps will be warned and may be booted out to free some up. It's up to the apps to then persist their state to the solid-state storage.

Monopolies are natural; they are the end state of most markets in most market economies. Capital distribution follows a power law, and that implies that a few big players always end up controlling the majority of a market unless you explicitly break them up. This is really basic.
It's not a dichotomy though. People often do multiples of the above at the same time. And as you mention, drama or being racist isn't a property of sex.

Which is worse? That is a personal value judgement. But from the perspective of a functional workplace, neither is desirable.

People sometimes forget why we go to work. It isn't for a moral crusade. It's to do work and hopefully make some money. Anything that screws with that is bad for the workplace. That's the bottom line right here in the real world.
Apple Pay does offer enhanced privacy by not transmitting your name along with your card number, but it doesn't randomize the number with every transaction. In fact you may not want that as it would disrupt email receipt systems and loyalty programs (absent some parallel mechanism).

Apple Pay does something called tokenization, and the goal is more fraud protection than privacy. It generates one new number at card enrollment and uses that exclusively. By using a unique account number which can only be issued by Apple Pay devices, it means it doesn't matter if someone hacks the merchant and steals your number. They can't use it without the associated Apple Pay generated cryptogram, secured by your PIN / fingerprint.

Honestly the enhanced security of Apple Pay is underhyped. It's really great.
I was wondering the same. Do we really want to be assisted/influenced by a transnational corporation in our every step ?

I'd rather think by myself and decide for myself thank you.
You really can't, because black people are arrested, tried and convicted WAY disproportionately to the actual rate of crimes. eg white people smoke weed as much or more than black people, and are arrested at a far lower rate for it.

This comment is propaganda specifically because it ignores all the propaganda that was necessary to pull those operations off. The TLA's had to convince a good chunk of people that the replacement leader was who they wanted so they wouldn't just re-replace the leader with more bullets. Propaganda was also the dominant technique for the recent election. Stays the best tool with it honed to near perfection by the likes of Fox.
Sounds like a death spiral. My father got a PhD in history so he could be a professor. If he couldn't expect that, he would have gone to business school, reducing the demand for history professors and so on until there's none left. You get it.

This is because black cops work in cities and areas with higher proportions of black people.

> In other words: People you very strongly disagree with

Those are certainly "other words", but ones that present an entirely incorrect picture of the post you're responding to.

In summary: it's not in any way hypocrisy to treat people and actions that harm others differently than people and actions that don't. And it's a really common derailing tactic to equate the two, and try to treat both as similarly "oppressed groups". (It's also a tactic that tends to produce arguments that sound quite appealing in the abstract, especially if you're of a mind to seek broader patterns and categories, which is not an uncommon trait here.)

I'll also note, in brief, that I'm not advocating a zero-nuance policy of immediate exclusion for the slightest offense. That's not a supportable position, and certainly not the one I hold. I do, however, consider exclusion a perfectly reasonable approach for maintaining more pleasant, welcoming communities. And it's not the job of every such community to put up with people who would make it worse, or to attempt to correct such people.
Yes, that's definitely high on the list. Some of us have friends and family over there, and of course there's no need to learn another language, which helps.

> This isn't a new or unique situation.

It used to be feasible to buy a home on the peninsula for 3-4x the area median income, and that number's now 6-8x at least, so I'd argue that yes, things are worse now, even taking inflation into account.

SF rents have also been increasing 6% YoY or so.

> What can you do against the tyranny of good ideas?

There are a number of practical things we can do:

- Contact the Brisbane City Council and ask them to approve housing in the Baylands. The developer wants to build 4000 units, the city Planning Commission wants to build 0.

- Contact the Mountain View City Council and ask them to build the high-density version of their housing plan, which would add 8000 units instead of 2000 (I have asked YC, a prominent Mountain View business, to help take the lead here).

- Show up to your city council and ask them to upzone their downtown area to support higher density. Ask them to make it easier to build accessory dwelling units (ADU's) and streamline the planning process.

- Call your State Assemblymember and ask them to support SB 35, which removes local control over projects that are near transit and include a high percentage of below market rent units.

- Call your State Senator and ask them to oppose AB 915, which would make it more difficult to build housing in San Francisco.

As well as a number of other pieces... I don't know that there's a magic bullet but at the margin there are a number of things that we can do to mitigate the situation.
+1 for no place short of toxicity. Gender doesn't matter, workplace doesn't really matter... At one of my past workplaces, the most toxic person was a female C-level. Whole departments that were moved under her would quit, but she and the CEO were buddies and he'd never get rid of her.
I question the argument that existing residents have incentive to oppose new housing for pricing purposes. Increasing density in the long run increases property prices. Look at prices in any downtown city....
I believe they are saying: if you find the tweet announcing the article, you can click through from the tweet and view the article.
So as someone in their mid 30's who loves programming and has refused any sort of "transition" to management, let me ask you this - how bad has "ageism" been for you in this industry? I've heard various things from various people and read conflicting articles. Just curious how you feel about it.

I'd hate to have to get another kind of job, to be honest, so kind of hoping I can keep at this for another 30 years or so.
Thanks!
Surface Studio is a very different beast than an iMac Pro. The Surface Studio isn't trying to be a powerhouse unit... it uses a mobile GPU. It's designed to be a creation workstation with the unique screen, knob, and stylus but not really a powerhouse render-er.
can you point to an example of "institutional racism?"
So, that, at least we have a clear starting point of something that needs addressing.

Speaking in general does not help anybody. I, for one, would not know where to look if you simply state "institutional racism", without giving me an example of what it actually means.
If you were to simply look at the overwhelming evidence (rather than resorting to use of vague words "absolutely" etc.) e.g. department affiliations of ML researchers (presenting at ICML/NIPS) and practitioners (at Google/FB/MSFT/etc) you would find that ML is firmly a branch of CS.
Hi Vasily, Great background... We are hiring in Oslo, should you want to consider.

Looks like this will stop (after 24 hours) some companies from doing an initial redirection to set cookies for tracking purposes... Example:

1. Search Google for hockey sticks

2. Click on search result hockeystick.com

3. hockeystick.com issues a 302 to adcompany.com which then issues a 302 back to hockeystick.com

Why the 302? Because in Safari, you could only access cookies in a 3rd party context if you've seen a domain in a 1st party context. Setting a cookie in adcompany.com in a 1st party context gives you the ability to read that cookie in a 3rd party context which could be used for tracking purposes.
Well when I had a gmail address, I received the emails sent to someone else with a different email address for some reasons.

I told the person and notified google, this continued for a few years until I left gmail.
There never was a browser monopoly on Windows just a bunch of tech illiterates who don't seem bothered by MS's "monopoly" with notepad.exe or anti-competitive moves like taking away the ability to use an alternate graphical shell.

Only one popular consumer OS has prevented the installation of alternate browsers and everyone looks the other way.
Nice. I saw one working like that in Clojure and rewrote it in my own Lisp: https://github.com/darius/squeam/blob/master/eg/bag-life.scm (the bag is like Python's Counter).
> Flat aluminum sheds heat better than plastic but it's not very good at it.

That's why it is a 27" heatsink instead of a 2" one.

Most of the heat is going to be moved out by the dual fans anyway. The Aluminum will dissipate what it picks up from the moving air before it leaves the chassis by the side vents.
I must admit I was turned off by Google Glass as a consumer product because I don't want to be "that guy" suspected of recording what really should be off-the-record.

> couldn't work on my learning new graphical js on my downtime

Assuming that you mean Javascript, there are a few environments like Coda [1] which let you code and play around.

I can't do Mac app dev, but I can certainly play around on my servers via SSH (keyboard really helps here).

> not beat making (ableton)

There may not be Ableton for iOS, but there are loads of music apps covering the spectrum. I'm a total amateur, but have been experimenting with Garageband, some synths, and an app that does tone-detection and spits out MIDI.

Under the Skin looks like a novel about aliens on Earth. It's really about meat, and about how people, especially women, get treated like meat. It's brilliant. But based on the Amazon customer reviews, there's a sci fi audience that doesn't want that kind of bait and switch.
It's interesting to compare American and Russian strategic military doctrine on the conduct of war in general. American strategic doctrine tends towards bright-line thresholds, past which a declaration of war is triggered. Russian strategic documents consider battlespace preparation the first and necessary phase of conflict and is less concerned with specific thresholds. Draw your own conclusions.
If your home becomes much more valuable in 2018 to 2028 but then falls sharply in 2029 to 2034 and you become ill in 2035, who will pay the high tax then due?

What you propose is basically an additional mortgage via the state. This means more leverage for home owners and increased risk for the state. When a broad downturn comes, the state will be shoved briskly toward bankruptcy.
Firefox OS led Mozilla to push a lot on the performance front in Gecko, mostly in gfx land. The JS perf is mostly SpiderMonkey and there was very little FxOS specific work done (as far as I remember, we mostly got help to tune the GC heuristics) because the JS team was already streched pretty thin.

These days Moco doesn't even try on mobile anymore (hint, there is no performance testing at all on arm in https://arewefastyet.com/#).

The desktop Firefox front-end didn't evolve so much during the FxOS days but these was not the same team either... and you would notice that key people leading Fx front end have changed since.
No. It allows Google bots to see full articles, but shows only the first paragraph or so to non-subscribers. Even if they're coming from Google search results.

Studies have also shown that disproportionate police shooting fatality rates among men when adjusted for population (50% of the population are men but 96% of those shot by police are men).

Violent crime rates are the more useful base rate than the general population. This is the best study I've seen to date that attempts to take into account rates of violent crime: https://www.nber.org/papers/w22399
Sorry, but Chicago and LA aren't of the same "caliber" as Barcelona is, when it comes to "tourist city". Unless you've been to Paris in August or Barcelona...any time of year....you don't know what I mean.

Of course it's not weird to see tourists in NYC or San Fran but tourists are literally everywhere in popular European cities. In Paris, in the summer, it feels like most of Japan and China decided to move there.

I've been in brew pubs in Barcelona where American English is coming out of 50% of the patrons.

So, no, it just doesn't compare.
Vilnius and Tallinn are definitely highly tempting, just from the simplicity of getting set up over there from a business registration standpoint (at least in Tallinn, not quite so sure about Vilnius). There are a few concerns about Russia's attitude to the Baltics, though - probably overblown in the press over here, but we'd need to research.

Berlin - yes, definitely a tempting option.
Thank you. This was useful to have articulated for me (and I hope for others).
This is huge. Jeff Atwood was right all along...
In my opinion, Texas gets this right (as a left-winger who's lived in Texas for a number of years, I don't get to say this that frequently). If you're over 65, you can defer property taxes on the home you occupy as long as you continue to own and occupy the home. They aren't even just frozen, you can simply not pay the taxes at all. This means you can't lose your home due to inability to pay property taxes. But you don't get to play both sides and get a property-tax reduction while also passing on a big capital-gains windfall to your heirs. The taxes are deferred, and when the home is either sold, or transferred to heirs upon your death, the deferred taxes are assessed against the capital gains and/or the estate. (If the estate ends up being worth less than the deferred taxes, the state eats the difference, but deferred taxes are recovered from whatever value it does have.)
I didn't realize it was only activated in private windows. Now that you've made me notice I consider this misleading, on the settings page it says nothing about being private windows only.
Use your mobile phone as a hotspot. In the US, T-Mobile includes 10GB of hotspot in the unlimited mobile plans, so it was a no-brainer for me to go that route.
Chicago needs to fix this.
If you get really really good at something, original is automatic. And if you practice really really hard at something, getting good is automatic.

1. Consumer AR market - mobile phone AR-enabled applications - education/gaming/entertainment/enhanced retail. Niantic, Blippar, Catchoom, Snapchat would all beg to differ that this market does not exist.

2. Enterprise/industrial AR market - wearable AR-enabled applications - I've already listed them. This market is very small currently...but it exists. I've talked to engineers and AR tool vendors in this market, creating applications for Vuzix, Epson devices. My argument is that this portion of the market will see a lot of growth over the next 5 years. Hard to explain Microsoft's play with Hololens, or PTC's ThingWorx Studio tracking tech away.

3. They are in a jam with AR application developers specifically, not all developers as a whole. You're right they have a large, strong mobile developer base, but AR developers will move away from mobile/tablet-focused platforms (iOS) to Android/Windows in order to develop for AR wearables.

They're playing in AR because they're looking for the new iPhone...a new form factor to deliver new applications and jump start sales. AR glasses could be that form factor if they can execute like Jobs did with the smartphone.
Statistically, increasing the number of people in an area will increase the amount of crime, the same way increasing the number of people will increase the traffic or the water usage or the electricity usage. Most people also overestimate the costs of crime by a factor of about 15; see http://press.princeton.edu/titles/9018.html for more information. It's too simplistic to just consider that.

It may be a valid concern but it's also valid to consider the rights of the person or entity that owns the land to build what they want on it, and the consequence of underbuilding and the subsequent effect on real wages.

If you want to do it properly you'd want to consider the increase in crime from a marginal resident added to area X, vs. the increase in crime from wherever they would live if you didn't build more housing in area X. Not to mention the effect on crime from perpetual underbuilding and the subsequent decline in most folks' real wages...
Only take into account violent crime rates, which by definition involves a victim.

https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-...

These statistics don't involve a trial or conviction. It's based entirely on the police report when the crime was reported and only includes the race of the offender when that information is known.
