My personal experience, especially through family and to a lesser extent through other acquaintances, is of women dominating conversations and talking over men. I (a man) can't tell you how many times I've had a woman ask me a question and then talk over my answer, or repeatedly interrupt me when I try to participate in a conversation. And I see the same thing happening to other men I know. The men just kind of give up and fade into the background as they realize they are simply not going to be allowed to speak.

Now I'm perfectly willing to believe that other people find the opposite experience more common. But I have to admit my initial reaction to statements like "this is a painfully frustrating reminder that women get talked over by men" is not positive, and I really do wish the conversation could be about people dominating conversations rather than men dominating conversations.
err ... how is this news? Here are two article from 2005 [1] and 2009 [2] about exactly the same thing:

Apple added a new depth api that gives real time information from the dual cameras. I’d be surprised if ARKit doesn’t use it to enhance the experience on the 7 Plus.

That said, it isn’t required. I have run the demo on my own iPad...the tracking is seriously impressive even with just the one camera.
I like this one: http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=...

"[...] approaches for preventing an accidental termination of a phone call session.". The patent actually covers the event of when a user:

1) is in a call

2) taps dismiss

3) phone decide to dismiss or continue because [wildcard] reason.

So the functionality in my Samsung that "decide" whether to ignore or continue when I tap dismiss with my chin is patented, cool.

Not necessarily, as historical Communist societies show. It just could be more of the lower class, nearly zero middle class, and, unavoidably, some comrades that are much more equal than the rest of the population.

Reducing inequality down to the point of literal equality was shown to lower the quality of life.
> I believe, it's a strong signaling that it was sexism

No idea where you get that from, if not the wave of social media outrage. There's no evidence of sexism here at all.

The audience applauded because of the injustice taking place at that moment which the moderator was unaware of. He was being rude by not letting her speak at that point. Everyone saw and applauded when balance was restored.

Nothing to do with sexism, it was just a clumsy moderator moment that could have happened to anyone.

He could have handled it better by saying "let me talk for a moment about your theories, if I may, and then I'll hand over to you". That would have been acceptable, but he didn't do that, and she felt unable to speak. Audience was with her, and applauded.

At 27:05 he asks her a question and does not interrupt, so it's not like there are no examples of him being polite and treating her with the same respect as other members.
> Attempts to talk over panelist when panelist starts to speak, but notably the panelist consciously speaks louder and repetitively to cut off the moderator.

If that isn't talking over another panelist, I don't know what is...
Well it probably cost more in materials than the face value of it
This nonFB user thanks u for the link

Two first impressions

2. what is the deal with audiences thinking they can shout??? Where are the manners?

1. the moderator either was thrilled he was with a superstar and overtalked to show her his knowledge, to elevate to her level - or he was a total disrespectful jerk.

Sure, the government based space missions won't use SpaceX. That's a non-issue.

SpaceX's launch manifest is filled with ~70% commercial customers anyways from the likes of: France, Japan, China, Canada, Bulgaria, Luxembourg, and Malaysia.

They're eating commercial launches for breakfast and putting huge pressure on Arianespace, ILS, and ULA. And they haven't even begun to reap the full cost savings of reusable rockets.

No one will be able to compete with SpaceX once they achieve full reusablility with Block 5. Their costs to launch will go down by 90% (10x cost reduction): meaning that SpaceX can respond to any competitors' price reductions instantaneously ... while stacking huge amounts of cash, on fantastic margins, as everyone else tries to catch up.
> Paying with options is equivalent to the start up selling stock to investors, paying employee with cash, and then having employee invest the money back into the company. As the article points out

No that's not the same, options are basically the right to invest at current valuation. What you described is more like RSU.

Both of those are comparing a 3-core iPad with a 2-core Intel CPU.

And parity at the same TDP is unsurprising. The trouble is that the i5-7Y57 is quite slow by desktop standards and there is currently no ARM equivalent to 4+ core 45+ watt Intel processors at any TDP.
ARM chips are awesome!
I'm sorry I can not buy ARM shares. Next generation of Macs will probably have ARM chips.
"...compensation package has a higher expected value..."

Expected value is a good measure when you're summing over lots of instances, e.g. if you're a VC fund investing in lots of startups.

As an employee, where you're working for a single startup at a time, robust statistics[1] suggests that the median is a better measure of what you'll expect to make: you have a 50/50 chance of making more/less than the median.

More than half of startups either fail, or don't succeed wildly enough for options to be worth more than the equivalent salary.

(If you work for 5 startups in your career, the best measure might be "sample 5 startups and sum the options payout to produce a value; repeat that many times and take the median of the result." But that's a lot harder to intuit, and is no doubt closer to the median than the expected value.)

> if you happen to find someone's house with an unlocked front door, that does not give you permission to go looking around inside.

But in this case you are asking the server for permission to come in. Unlike a lock, a server has situational awareness to decide if it says yes or no. We even call it a server, à la servant. If the maid acting as an agent for the homeowner at this hypothetical house invited you in, against the wishes of the homeowner, are you still breaking the law?

That was the original purpose of the tracking dots. I don't think it's at all surprising that an intelligence agency would co-opt a law enforcement identification mechanism.

There is nothing "hostile" about preventing individuals from breaking the law.

We would occasionally get a new model delivered by truck. The one door between the lab and the elevator was a normal (narrow) door. So we'd have to lift the bed onto it's side and maneuver it through. So that's how I know how much they weigh and that they need wide doors. :)

> You say you get to make risky investments with time; yes...but that's even worse than money. Money is fungible. Time isn't. You have a set amount in life.

that isn't an argument against startups offering options. that only says that you value your time in such a way that precludes you from investing it in startups.
Meh. This was just a bad moderator.
Why take the median? For me personally all I need is one year where I make a couple million bucks. What I really care about for my personal financial position is either the sum or mean, because that's what hits my bank account.
Me, too. However, if your opinion on W3Schools is from ten years ago when they were sketchy and misleading, it may interest you to know that it's much better now. I don't reflexively hit the back button when I land there from a search, now -- sometimes the info I'm looking for is actually there. ;)
Correct call on keeping it civil. I know for all the scraping I do I put my name and contact info in the header so if people try to look and find an issue they know how to get in contact. But I also make sure I'm not making requests that would ever affect their servers. Gotta stay nice.

My name is Przemysław Spodymek, I am a Python Developer with 6 years of work experience. My experience covers a variety of Python-based projects. Since 2014 all projects I have been involved in were remote.
I don't mind if something is omitted ie for time reasons (although this is usually issue with book -> movie, not anime -> movie). I have though problem with changing perfectly working parts of story for something else, which is always a lost battle.

Some personal examples from the movie - the fight with garbagemen, the moment when one of them used special AP ammo to destroy Section 9 truck. It could have been such a cool moment. I still recall it from anime after 16 years. Or the fight with spider tank, its defeat by Batou. Why Aramaki kept talking in japanese and everybody else in english - if they used some automatic brain translators, they could have spent 15 seconds of story explaining this, ie show some immigrants speaking their own language.
From 2016: Bozoma Saint John interview (she just left Apple for Uber)
I know 100+ people from a dozen companies who've made $1mm+ on equity. None of my friends would write a post like this.

That said, valuing equity is complicated:

- most offers include a healthy mix of cash and equity and benefits. Evaluate the whole package.

- unless you can pre-exercise via 83(b), I generally avoid options. RSUs are fine and many companies are offering them. Clever hack: counter the offer with a demand that the company pay 2% of the cost of exercising for each month you're employed, grossed up for taxes.

- watch out for illiquidity: whales often delay IPO which locks up employees. This compounds the exercise issue. Clever hack: counter the offer with a requirement that the company offer to buy back the equity at the most recent preferred share price, if the company accepts investment at a valuation exceeding $100mm.

Stay positive!
Major corporations, pop culture and human nature all vying to get an individual to spend recklessly and in gratuitous ways, but let's not allow any force of good to use similar tactics.

We can't suggest to someone how to spend their money despite every facet of society doing exactly that.
Why doesn't the market care? Where is the JS-less Facebook/Twitter/Airbnb competitor that blows the customers away with "properly built" websites?
There's no evidence of sexism though. You've been swept up by the tide of Facebook outrage and that's good enough for you to settle on your verdict.

I watched the video and found evidence of him treating her equally....try 27:05 for starters.

The actual incident was just a moderator being clumsy. You've taken that and thrown sexism in there because, why... you need a victim to cheer for and an industry to scorn? I don't get your motivation when there is clearly no evidence of sexism.
This is the first thing I thought of when I read about this. It made me quite angry and then a little satisfied finally knowing why this happens.
For the people wondering what it looks like: http://static.snopes.com/app/uploads/2017/06/printer_EFF_dot...
Options first really got started as a tax avoidance measure, but that loophole was closed decades ago.
It still is?
There is so much conflation in that first paragraph I couldn't get past it. The way I think about it is that options are how you earn money for doing a (/if you do a) good job. Much like doing a good job of picking a house in a neighborhood that you believe will appreciate, doing the right amount of renovation and renting it out while waiting, if you did this well you could make money on the appreciating assets. In a startup, your two main assets are time and people. Salary is how a company compensates you for the FACT that you're doing a good job. Bonuses are how the company compensates you for going above and beyond. In our company we have standard compensation packages based on tenure, within the structure, there is no way for anyone to make any more than anyone else outside of just being at the company for a long time. When you're betting on a startup you're betting on the founders and the team, not the VC, if you want a proper salary go work for a business that is already built, don't work on building one. Hedge funds and banks pay really well.
If this is even real... I admire the generosity, but giving money away on Reddit is a terrible idea. It's really hard to give money away effectively, which is why folks like Bill Gates have now made it their full-time job.

If you see this kind of behavior in the workplace, I highly recommend the technique of "echoing" as a means of overcoming it. In meetings I've seen it happen many times where an introvert makes a brilliant point, which gets completely lost when some manager who likes to hear themselves talk follows them. When this happens, I find it incredibly powerful to raise my hand and say, "I'd like to bring us back to [introvert's] point that..." The women in the Obama White House made this techique popular [1], and it's extremely effective in getting quieter more thoughtful ideas the attention they deserve.

As an introvert myself, I support a workplace that is encouraging and respectful of women because that is a workplace respectful of introverts as well.

OP is impressed by the shift in public perception, not in the causes itself. If America was ever the leader of the green movement, it also had its own sinister roots.
Because of those 1% the large majority don’t choose to turn it off but don’t have it available for a multitude of reasons outside of their control.
Unsurprising? So it is an easy thing to do to at least equal Intel with their vast experience after only a few years, when no one else is able to do it?

By the way if you have a problem with the number of cores just compare the single core score. I don't see a problem though, it they can cram one more core in same tdp then it's fair.

The jury is still out wether Apple could compete with Intel at those higher TDPs (15w-28w-45w)
Let's not forget the "asset only" acquisition where the company sells it's IP and employees but doesn't sell any shares. Been through one of these and this is what happened, screwing over former employees who had bought options and investors. I think the only people who profited were the bankers.
Right, with options you can choose not to exercise if valuation goes down, avoiding a loss.

>enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State

Not well-read on the case law here, but are you sure signing a non-binding pledge qualifies under this section? I would assume it underwent basic vetting by constitutional law experts.
Did you mean "solution looking for a problem"? I didn't understand what you said.
> Also, adding to the fact that I am entirely self taught I sometimes wonder maybe I am missing out on a lot of theoretical stuff they teach in a CS degree.

A CS degree is useful for a software engineer, but most of what you learn is only tangential to software engineering. Many of the best engineers are self taught.

That said, some of the basic stuff from CS is pretty useful. I'd definitely encourage you to learn data structures and algorithms. Just pick up a good textbook and go through it! (I like to recommend this one: https://www.amazon.com/Algorithm-Design-Manual-Steven-Skiena...).

Another suggestion I have is to seriously think about why you want to do work in lower level stuff. The large majority of jobs are in web development right now, so trying to avoid that really limits your options. There's really nothing more sophisticated or interesting going on at the low levels. I've seen a lot of people come into a software engineering career with preconceptions about exactly what sort of work they want to do, and at the end of the day, I don't think those preconceptions have made any of them happy.
There's a further characteristic to consider when thinking about intent.

I'm often the only man in a room of 10-40 women, eg "Mums & Toddlers" groups and at work. There's usually a degree of overt sexism and exclusion; however acting differently toward me is human nature, we have two different sexes.

Sexism that's not negative discrimination seems like something we should just live with. Some intentional (or at least easily avoided) sexism falls in that class IMO.
Today I met a journalist who gave up on his job because it was all about his interpretations of other people. He instead started projects to empower others to speak.
If you're having to debate in your head "options vs cash", then the answer is definitely cash. Because if the options were worth something, that thought wouldn't even come up. Also, companies where options are of actual value generally do not give you such a choice, they give you plenty of both (provided you are worth it), the objective is to retain you because you are valuable, not to pay you the minimum possible value by presenting tricky choices of "options or cash".

Sure it's interesting in a certain sense, but is it problematic? The whole point of these sorts of incidents being publicised is to make an argument that men in STEM as a group treat women in STEM as a group unfairly and therefore intervention to improve the lot of the latter at the expense of the former is an ethical necessity. To insinuate, as you seem to be doing, that members of the former group stepping up to contest the case against them is further evidence of its validity is downright kafkaesque.
That last idea about how to deal with illiquidity is very interesting. Never seen that suggestion before. Will definitely keep that in mind moving forward (both as an offer taker and an offer maker). Thanks!
