> The person you're responding to could have simply meant the other participants refused to let the moderator walk over them like that, which has nothing to do with sex and everything to do with behavior.

I think that's precisely what they meant. There are a lot of dimensions here:

- The other participants might've behaved differently than Prof. Hubeny, in a way that got them treated differently.

- The moderator might've had different expectations about how different people on the panel would behave, or how they might want him to behave, prior to anyone's actual behavior.

- Any difference in expectations might or might not have anything to do with sex.

- Someone posted Prof. Hubeny's response elsewhere in this thread, and it sounds like her experience was pretty different from the audience's experience. Which is fine; one event can mean different things to different people.

So there's room for lots of different true, sincere points to be made out of a single story.

I'll buy that. If this disproportionately affects women then I'll buy that too. I don't buy that men interrupt women specifically out of some sort of bias. My experience has been that the more passionate conversationalists among us will interrupt anyone who will let them.

No, they are claiming that the @realDonaldTrump feed, specifically, is a limited public forum as that term has been established in First Amendment case law.

This has no bearing on Twitter's ability to control content, or non-government-officials using Twitter to block users, unlike what would be the case of this was about Twitter's status rather than a particular government official's feed's status.
There are so many new things for me to learn:

The US Senate did ratify the UNFCCC Treaty in 1992

> 10/07/1992	Resolution of advice and consent to ratification agreed to in Senate by Division Vote.[0]

So perhaps yes, the Paris Agreement is binding to the US in the sense that it's parent treaty, the UNFCCC was actually ratified by the Senate, and was not simply an Executive action. If this is the case, we cannot simply end participation in the treaty without being in abrogation of both the Paris agreement, AND the UNFCCC. Please excuse me if I am simply repeating what you're saying.

But Article 25 (pg21) of the UNFCCC states[1]:

>1. At any time after three years from the date on which the Convention has entered into
force for a Party, that Party may withdraw from the Convention by giving written notification to
the Depositary.
2. Any such withdrawal shall take effect upon expiry of one year from the date of receipt by
the Depositary of the notification of withdrawal, or on such later date as may be specified in the
notification of withdrawal.
3. Any Party that withdraws from the Convention shall be considered as also having
withdrawn from any protocol to which it is a Party.

So it's pretty easy to leave...

> perpetuates the idea that Python won't let you write elegant and stateless programs that behave in a functional manner

Well, in my opinion Python really does not let you write elegant and stateless programs that behave in an FP manner.

The sample you've chosen in particular is all fine, except that `lambda` expressions are almost never used, due to Python not being expression oriented, so there isn't much you can express with a `lambda`.

You might find your `for x in seq if even(x)` expression elegant, but it is preceded by a `return`. Python is a statement / side effects oriented language and even in your one liner, it shows.

Oh, and given that a Python "generator" is like Java's Iterable / Iterator, that's not FP either, although you can argue that the mutation can be localized (e.g. in your `sum` example), but you have to be careful about it.

And if you'll take a look at the whole Python ecosystem, there's not much FP in it to be honest. I mean, seriously, out of all the mainstream languages, I can't think of a worse language to do FP than Python, except for C maybe,
> but clearly, the imbalance of power between men and women is so large, that there is still no question about which side has more power.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, as of 2006 only 3.6% of alimony recipients were men. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alimony#History

Mothers are granted custody in ~80% of cases and are the recipients of 94% of child support dollars paid: https://dalrock.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/latest-u-s-custody-...

Men make up 93% of the current prison population: https://www.bop.gov/about/statistics/statistics_inmate_gende...

Men are assumed to be sexist by default: https://amberskyeforbes.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/1240542_...

Men have no reproductive rights. If a woman decides to cede responsibility for her child, she can abort it or give it up for adoption. If a man decides to cede responsibility for a child, he is labeled a "deadbeat" and on the hook for child support payments anyways.

Only men are required to register for the United States Selective Service.

According to a 2012 CDC study, more men than women suffer from domestic violence and psychological aggression: http://www.saveservices.org/2012/02/cdc-study-more-men-than-...

But when the very first domestic violence shelter for men opened in the US it was panned as a misuse of nonprofit money: http://www.xojane.com/issues/domestic-violence-shelters-for-...

More than double the available scholarships for women than for men:

The basic problem is that people are not educated, sophisticated -- whatever term we choose, they don't possess enough of it to have any sort of nuanced understanding of an issue. Politicians simply noted that fact and use it to their advantage.

You ask, "Do you think it's fair that people with preexisting conditions pay higher insurance premiums?", and I'll just ask, "Do you think it's fair that people should be forced to pay for the health care of others?" As long as I can ask the question to get the answer I want, polling is worthless for driving policy.

What we'll end up with is the notion that Americans want free healthcare, free college, the best military, every veteran to have a $60k a year pension, and to save the planet, while they also want to pay no taxes and suffer no inconvenience to their daily lives. Good luck making that into policy.

I've noticed a, seemingly disingenuous, pattern of naming things within the USA approximately opposite of the effect of the bill. Affordable healthcare makes it more expensive, Net neutrality is about allowing ISPs to censor and filter etc.

>"Elections have consequences" and all that.

Except they don't. The person who occupies the 3rd Congressional seat in Georgia has no impact on my life. I shouldn't care about it and the media should spend less time focusing on it. What matters are the actual actions of Congress. Asking about "Obamacare" is a question about politics. Asking about "preexisting conditions" is a question about what actions Congress should take.

>But if identity politics are important enough to take priority over policy opinions, then knowing what policies people prefer doesn't really tell you anything.

It isn't identity politics. It is marketing. If a particular policy is popular when it is described but unpopular by name, the only thing it means is that the message about that policy has not been properly communicated.

There's a major difference between wireless and wired communications: one of them requires a wire.

You have to pay a lot to get those wires to the places where you want them to go, but they don't interfere with each other. You can double capacity along a link by doubling the number of wires. (Or fibers, or continuous waveguide metamaterials, or whatever.)

When you need to double capacity along a wireless link, you need to either come up with a 2x better coding regime -- and those don't happen all that conveniently -- or you need to have access to twice the frequency range that you had before. Since the FCC hasn't given up on that part of their regulation, it's going to cost you quite a bit to have that license.

Now, the next time you need to double, you have the same choice...

Absent a major regulatory change not likely before 2020, I expect a fire-sale or give-away of licensed frequencies, all going to major incumbent players.

As a tiny, girly looking feminine man who crossdresses half the time, I have to say that everybody- male or female- is at risk for being "talked over" and not given a fair chance. That's just how the world works.

You can be upset about it and say that people were unfair, or you can make yourself a better person by learning from others mistakes.

The world would be a better place if people put less energy into being upset, and more energy into mutual empathy between sexes.
This is only a valid analogy if in our real world I could make a tuxedo appear on my body with no more effort than snapping my fingers. (Which would be awesome.)

There's also a weird peer-pressure involved. Overheard a conversation a while back that summarizes it nicely - someone was talking about a scheduling system written they've used for years, and mentioned it was written in Perl. Another participant guffawed, and after the requisite Perl-bashing, the original person allowed that, yes, even though it worked fine, they should rewrite it.

No idea what company that was, but I'd love to work in a place where that was the most pressing concern on my plate.
The distinction that's often used is "Sex" vs "Gender" to distinguish between the two different usages. Sex is biological Male/Female whereas Gender is the social roles a person is performing.
> Moderate drinking some days but not others, perhaps your liver/brain do better because they get "total rest days", whereas light/moderate drinking every day may put them in a constant state of irritation or stress. Just like with workouts.

Given how xenobiotic metabolism ("drug tolerance") works, I would expect the opposite: that your liver would be perfectly fine with a sustained stress exactly under the threshold at which it is capable of dealing with it, and this state would be indistinguishable from consuming no alcohol at all. But go one hair more, and now you'll have a chronic but mild stress-state on the liver, with the formation of dangerous side-products (like NAPQI in tylenol metabolism) but only in tiny amounts, such that the small amounts of damage done by the side-products will be noticed and repaired, and the chemicals themselves flushed out by the excretory system before more damage can happen.

On the other hand, single, monstrously large doses ("binge drinking") will tend to lead to the formation of large amounts of such side-products, which will be highly available to react with other organic chemicals nearby and thus cause large amounts of long-term damage—weakening the body in ways that make repair harder—before they can be removed.
> as I understand it smoking a pipe isn't particularly dangerous compared to cigarettes, snuff, chewing tobacco, cigars, etc

Smoking a cigarette is a very dangerous activity, so very many things are safer than that.

Smoking a pipe does increase your risk of several cancers.

https://www.surgeongeneral.gov/library/reports/50-years-of-p...

> Most estimates of SAM [smoking attributable mortality] do not include mortality caused by cigar smoking, pipe smoking, or smokeless tobacco use. For example, an estimated 1,000 deaths in the United States were attributable to pipe smoking in 1991 (Nelson et al. 1996).

I'm not sure how many people were smoking pipes in 1991.

> The average annual SAM for the United States for 2010–2014 (Table 12.15) is at least 480,000 premature deaths caused by cigarette smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke; however, this estimate does not include deaths caused by use of cigars, pipes, other forms of combusted tobacco (e.g., roll-your-own cigarettes, hookah pipes, bidis; see Chapter 13 for description of these various products), nor smokeless tobacco products. As discussed in Chapter 13, the use of these products has increased in recent years; while the methodology for estimating the current population burden from the use of these tobacco products remains under discussion, the number of deaths caused by these products is expected to be in the thousands per year (Shapiro et al. 2000)

Huge, huge difference, IMO. Web companies need to start stepping their game up when it comes to component libraries as a foundational part of any style guide.
Anti-sexism might still be sexism, but with a non-negative connotation.

The question is ill-defined, those terms, sexism and natural ..., don't have to be mutually exclusive. Thew comparison doesn't even make much sense, see also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_nature

Your implication is paradox, because it paints with a pretty broad brush and out of line. You suggest that discriminating against naturally gender specific behavior is sexism. I don't think that's the case, although it's a loosely defined, broad term. At least sexism is a stereotype, too, yes.

Paradoxically, women who are discriminating against men would be assertive. Therefore you would be in turn discriminating against this presumably unnatural tendency (unless women aren't vocal about this). That's ironic because as far as I know sexism fundamentally is against ascribing any character attributes based on gender, analog to racism. (I might be confused here, because it's not usually my debate. Popular sexism is rather against discrimination in face of obvious gender based properties, like pregnancy.)

On the other hand, casual sexism is just the exercise of sexism, whether it be natural or not, in settings where it doesn't belong. In general, professionalism requires an extend of discretion and privacy and is certainly not black and white at that, but rather subjective. And that's what emancipation is about, incidentally, to be treated as a subject, individually, and not objective as a stereotype.

It reads like an interesting article, but I couldn't understand the emphasis about what's "popular" and what's "unpopular". Maybe because I'm already in my mid 30s, but I for myself couldn't care less if what interests me is either seen as popular or unpopular, the same as I don't care about what people think about the music I listen or the movies I watch. Is there something I'm missing?
There is no one-size-fits-all approach for measuring competence. Different companies and different teams have different dynamics.

What makes sense for your team and the things you work on can be very different from mine.

The tools and process my team settles on can achieve better results despite looking more primitive on your measuring stick. Complexity is not the end goal.
I can tell you about my experience.

1. Focus on transition asap. Give the leaving employee plenty of time to document knowledge.

2. Make sure to treat all parties involved with respect.

3. Have an exit interview with the founder where you can give final feedback (with the understanding that it may be ignored).

4. Treat everyone like you might work with them again.
Accuracy. Every solution I've seen that relies on automatic crawling will eventually have a parsing error when someone changes their sentence structure of a press release.

Sorry that happened to you. What you've said is true - your brother should not have hit you in the first place.

Apples and oranges, though.

Physical violence, threats, and calls to action must not be equated to expression. The urgency & rigor needed to address violence would be inappropriate applied to expression.

As an aside: it's not always possible to take action to defend yourself, but this does not necessarily mean that passive or defensive actions are all that you have.

I do find it interesting, but it doesn't change what's easier for me to reason about.

I suspect that it will be easier for core Python developers rather that general Python programmers because they will be more intimately familiar with the conversion rules. I would be more comfortable with such a construct in C or C++, because I am more confident in those conversion rules. But, even though Python's are quite similar, I had to check myself before making my comment, because I knew they were similar, but I was not sure what they were. The situation in the stackoverflow comment is also not quite the same: asking a question about the relationship of numbers (is x modded by 2 equal to zero) is a special case of using integers in a boolean context. Saying it's Pythonic to use an integer in a boolean context does not necessarily mean it's best to always do so.
Couldn't they have picked a better platform than Facebook to try this out on, given all of the research into the effect of social media on one's mental state?
I'm not sure I agree here; a lot of consumer cases that I've worked with are just barely deep enough to house a card of this size. Putting the power connector on the end of the card would add some extra room to make the case slimmer perhaps, but most consumer cases tend to be generously wide, while not having a lot of extra depth. Wires plugging into the end of the card would compete with the hard drive / CD ROM / Media Card Bay, etc etc.

I agree with nVidia's choice here, but you also raise a valid point; certain cases and configurations would benefit from the added flexibility of that adapter, so there may well be a market.

Given Uber's infamous "hustle" and some of their other software hijinks, I very much doubt that their intentions in this decision were for the benefit of their users.

I don't personally have evidence of this occurring, but given e.g. https://m.slashdot.org/story/324911 and that it's technically possible, I would assume that they're doing it.
