Yes people employing black humor don't believe what they are saying. That's literally the whole point. I really doubt there are that many people that actually want to murder babies. Or do any of the insane things that come up in a good cards against humanity game.

Maybe you could make a utilitarian argument against black humor. Maybe you could argue that such jokes encourage actual baby killers and the world would be better without them. I really doubt that's true, but even if it was, it's a very different argument. People want these kids expelled because they think they are actual monsters, which is probably false. Not because of theoretical arguments of the utility of banning black humor.

Pols transition to conservatism has nothing to do with black humor, but how it's set up. It's a site that not only doesn't censor, but strongly encourages discussions on taboo topics. Of course it will attract people that believe taboo ideologies and are banned or ostracized elsewhere.
Fucking cool tho.

Can confirm that your experience at the top ten school applies to Purdue Engineering and Technology majors. First year starts out slow with mostly 100+ people classes (accounting had 1,100! 550 in the room at a time), but after that they get specialized and you normally find the more personable professors in the higher numbers since there are normal size classes of maybe 10-50.

At the moment, there is a surplus supply of PhDs. If, at some point, that gets corrected, things may change.

Though I should note that PhD students in history aren't major drivers of demand for professors of history - undergraduates are.

In the sciences, there's a bit more of an incentive to have lots of graduate students.

Typing-By-Brain Project Discusses How Facebook Will Get Inside Your Head
Nobody brought up 'convincing threats of violence' before now. But since you did, yes, I'd absolutely claim a difference. It's one thing to fear being excluded from a group, and quite another to fear for your safety, whether there's an actual threat or simply something that feels ominous. And even when exclusion or banning is on the table, there's a step between quietly removing someone from a community (leaving them to make a scene or not) and loudly warning people about the threat they pose; it takes a lot more direct concern for others' safety to warrant the latter. And if you read the article, there were multiple incremental steps taken, and not everyone involved was ejected, nor does it sound like anyone was named who didn't want to be.

For that matter, exclusion is typically entirely reversible, given appropriate reasons to do so.

More importantly, however, you're focusing on the effect on the excluded, and ignoring their effect on others.

If you're asked to be quiet in a library, you're not being oppressed; even if you're talkative by nature, you can manage to shut up so others can ready and study. If you don't, you'll be asked to leave, or ultimately made to. But that doesn't mean people in the library go around with that fear and threat as the ultimate reason, any more than people go around with 'I might go to jail' as the only thing stopping them from injuring someone.

The same goes if you're participating in a community with a code of conduct that makes it welcoming and comfortable. Even if you're naturally toxic and obnoxious, hopefully you can manage to suppress that tendency in order to participate in the community. If not, you'll be asked to leave, or ultimately made to. But people participating in the community don't have that at the forefront of their minds all the time. That's largely the point.
Perfect, not a problem. How about viewing graphs?
Funny, I remember coming to NYC from Scandinavia thinking it was so humid and warm and impossible to get anything done during the summer months.

Guess it really depends on what you are used to.

Then, in the winter, the old NYC apartments were so dry and warm because of the central heat that typically couldn't be regulated from the radiators in the apartments. They just blasted on all winter and the only way to adjust the temperature would be to open the windows :-)
that's on purpose
Hi,

Google SWE here.

I think part of what you are looking for is unfortunately luck. I have a female coworker who had changed teams and she mentioned some of the problems she faced in her previous team, and she then mentioned she was much happier and valued in the new team.

What you can probably do is to try to find a female engineer within the team you'd be joining if possible.

As for Google, I am a male, so what i say wouldn't mean much probably, but my female coworkers and their work is valued - my management chain is pretty great in ensuring that.
The latter have been the ostensible focus of primary education for a couple of centuries.

> A more valuable employee is going to tend to have better wages.

I disagree. Wages are a proxy for your value, but not a very accurate one. Among my circle of friends, I've seen 2 of them get significantly different offers for doing very similar jobs. One can negotiate very well; the other is a total nerd. Both are comparable in ability. The negotiator makes nearly 2x as much as the other guy.

There is a lot more to compensation than just your "value to the company".

Back then, when I was in highschool, I was told that the density of core memory was limited by the dexterity of the Filipina workers who threaded the wires through the tiny magnetic donuts.

"real" programming like all the "C"-type languages e.g. JavaScript etc., are just filled with gobbly-gook special characters that lead to mistakes. However, it wraps spooky robes around those eho choose or have to master this junk. COBOL was/is bulky, but at least it attempted to be somewhat understandable unlike the "real" programming.

Yes well if I were to put my response in a more politically correct manner, it would be something like: a statement "It's generally understood by technology experts that SSLv1 is insecure for most purposes and should be avoided" - that's one thing, with it's own level of certainty. When someone is saying "it's understood by economy experts that inflation of 2% is best for the economy" - there is an order of magnitude less certainty in that statement, because the whole field is just one giant experiment, where they make up things as they go, while having little to no real means of critically measuring their results.
I don't think that economy experts are necessarily doing a poor job, it's just that the field itself is much more uncertain. And since we are discussing their performance here, it's only fair that this would come up.
Yeah, this is another problem that LA is starting to face in many neighborhoods. There are no smaller houses. What happens is as soon as a small house goes on the market, a developer buys it for several percent over asking price with cash, tears it down and builds a McMansion on it that stretches from one end of the lot to the other. So there is no lower-priced housing stock available to buyers.

In fact, it's getting to the point where there's no medium-priced stock in areas like the West side. People with growing families want (and often need) bigger houses, but can't afford them, so they increase the size of their existing house, thereby remaining one more small or medium sized from the market. It's a vicious cycle.

Prompt2 + tmux + vim is pretty much mysetup as well. It's mostly used for side projects and experimenting, but is very robust.

For long flights I've been experimenting with Pythonista app, but so far haven't hit anywhere close to the same productivity as with the SSH setup.

Another big plus for SSH is ability to literally pickup where you left off without any warm up/resetup - everything is still running when you reattach the tmux session.

I use the SSH machine as the control center, with the actual code running on AWS or Heroku (for APIs/web apps).

Relational Reasoning with Neural Networks
As we've gotten more device computers have gotten more powerful. Server software has gotten better. HTTP has Keepalive and multiplexing now. Encryption and networking are offloaded to hardware and we have a lot more cores.

I would guess a single server can handle thousands of times as many users as it could handle years ago. HAProxy, Netty, Nginx, and others can handle over a million (simple) HTTP requests per second. That's more requests than Google.com gets.

Most as in I've been watching over 100 AWS VM's and maybe 30 on Azure for years and they die or crash far more often than than the VM's hosted here, at colo, or our old bare metal machines. It's anecdotal but it seems like AWS doesn't really care about warning you before shutting off your machine. Azure is slightly better but still goes down regularly.

I know everyone says "it's okay! Just make your servers fault tolerant!". Well that works great for load balancers and frontend, but doesn't work at all for SQL databases. ACID compliant transactions require a single source of truth and a true multi master SQL database is impossible. Failover yes, but you always risk losing data in the switchover unless you use two phase commit which actually makes your multimaster database slower than a single system. In practice the failover almost always causes some data loss and log conflicts you have to diddle with later. And God help you if the replica falls behind more than a couple seconds.

Anyways, for SQL databases system reliability is as essential as ever and it's a lot easier to get high SLA numbers when you control the hardware and the power switch. The closest you can get to the Holy Grail is running KVM VMs locally and doing live machine migrations when hardware starts to fail, but even that won't keep your database running if something really bad happens.

While it's definitely distracting, there is a type of conversation that occurs which I have never experienced in all my years as a cube farmer. If I want isolation, I can go sit somewhere else or work from home or a cafe. It feels like the default being not isolation makes all the difference.

You're lucky, I can't. I agree that an open office has its benefits but when you can't treat its downsides with the methods you stipulate then I don't feel it's worth it on balance. I'm forever distracted and even just the cubicle farm (not fully sealed offices) was a much better environment for me.
It's not just that the product itself is easy to copy, it's that the facts themselves are not copywritable, only the writing is. Meaning a source without that restriction provides the value without the cost.

I disagree. "Real" programming languages attempt to be understandable by choosing and building around an appropriate set of abstractions for their purpose.; it's true that some were designed around various types of resource constraints based on the environments for which they were designed that involve terse expression of the abstractions, bit that's done to make them usable in that environment, not to “wrap spooky robes” around the programmers.

And excessive verbosity can be as much of an impediment to clarity as excessive terseness.
I know someone who grows and processes walnuts. They own everything, the land, picked and cultivated the trees, bought equipment, hired workers, some on temporary (seasonal basis) some permanent. Apparently shelled and sorted high quality walnuts are pretty expensive and a good profit maker. Especially in the EU market. Or at least they were more expensive than I'd expect.

When they said how much a truck full of packaged shelled walnuts is worth, I also surprised they are not sending guards with those trucks.

Until they made it a requirement that my web-browser subverts control from me, the owner of the PC, to Hollywood, in the name of DRM, now a "standard" web-feature.

So basically people who wants to be in control of their own computers can't run web-browsers anymore eh? Just because of Netflix?

That frankly sounds like a shit deal.
A bit off-topic perhaps, but you misunderstand the purpose of mining (hash calculations).
They are not meaningless by any measure.
Calculating hashes is required for the network to prevent double-spends. There is no other known technology that can do the same thing in a distributed network. This property of the network (it being distributed), along with the basic functionality of a currency has obviously been valued by the market. This means that there are people out there who gain from using it. This means that calculating hashes is valuable and has utility for people. The way that utility is implemented is just a technical design question.

If your statement was correct, one could easily extend it and say that Internet is consuming a whole lot of power for the meaningless purpose of powering the switches and routers that make up the backbone of the network. That all that energy goes to waste to have some machines standing somewhere in a datacenter that noone sees.

Obviously, those machines transform the energy into practical utility, and so do ASICs calculating Bitcoin hashes.
It's still web based. You can just use one wrapper for one platform and one for another. A little extra effort, but if the engine makes it worth it then why not?

"Paying for the party" is amusing. "Pledged: The Secret Life of Sororities" covers much the same material. The importance of drinking didn't happen by accident. The alcohol industry promoted it heavily.[1] Two out of five students in the colleges studied are now binge drinkers.

I got critical thinking early because I was brought up by a lawyer. There were always briefs around the house, and I could read the briefs for both sides. Seeing both sides discussing the same facts and coming to different conclusions gives a sense of how to decide something. Today I read The Washington Post and Fox News every day, to compare what they're saying. This is apparently unusual, although it didn't used to be. Left-wing radicals used to read the Wall Street Journal, to see what the other side was up to. This seems to have stopped; the problem with the Occupy movement is that while they were against Wall Street, they never developed an agenda that could be implemented to do something about it.

They (the Intercept) are playing in a dangerous game, and they should be extra careful about such things. After all the drama about smashed hard drives, Greenwald's BF being detained in London, etc. etc. you'd think they'd know better.

I'm not in the security business, and even I knew about the dots (and circles in the $20 bills). It's been on HN several times: http://goo.gl/h1kqbu

So, shame on you, Intercept. Your callous disregard for your sources is now going to send one to prison for a looong time.
You're still saying that the work involved in collecting those facts -- journalism -- is without value, and if no one bothers to do this professionally because their work will just be instacopied, so be it.
Huh, I never thought about that before. Importing inside a function is very frowned-upon AFAIK, but now I wonder what kind of performance improvements you might get from importing things only when you need them.
