Men of "questionable technical skills" have a whole raft of culturally acceptable crutches at their disposal, including dominance behavior, Machiavellian strategies towards conflict, etc. A lot of these antisocial behaviors have come to define "good leadership" even in the past few decades, so I find it completely laughable to draw equality to calling out sexism. Even IF sexism charges were completely unfounded & a crutch, so what, men have gotten away with highway robbery by comparison.
Not related at all. (Duplicacy != Duplicity)

Duplicity is a pretty straight good old-fashioned incremental backup program.

Duplicacy on the other hand is hash-based deduplication (BorgBackup / Attic, Restic etc. are some others).

The design of Duplicacy is slightly different from that of e.g. BorgBackup. Duplicacy, as the title says, uses a lock-free approach. BorgBackup and the handful of open source tools in the same spirit use a synchronized approach.
We at Tachyus use it as the main server-side language in our production environment. Also on Linux/Mono. Jet uses it, and they were bought by WalMart for > $1B. There is no problem running in production. In fact, there is a noticeable lack of problems running in production.

That's what I'm getting out of this. Maybe I was the only one, but my first thought was "physicists still seem pretty damn biased against string theory proponents". I know the theory has sparked a lot of controversy and skepticism in the past. Only later on did it dawn on me that the author was assuming sexism instead of string theory-ism.

Her words:

> I had early on decided that I like physics so much that I’d be quite willing to give up quite a bit of other comforts for it, but perhaps having made that decision and bracing oneself, then made the actual “discomforts” not only more bearable, but genuinely less discomforting. I think the subjective severity of a lot of these issues can be greatly influenced by one’s mindset, one’s psychology. If you allow yourself to enjoy the beautiful things that really matter, if you don’t let social or peer pressure dissuade you from pursuing a field which appeals to you, then no pettiness or childishness or boorishness that you encounter can harm you so much.

> Please understand that I’m not trying to say that sexism in science is a myth. It is real and we should all aspire to diminish it. But I am trying to say that it need not pose as much of an impediment as you might fear and that you might be in more control over its influence yourself than you might think. Just as you put up with long lines to see a great show, or with sore feet or mosquitos to have a great hike etc., the annoyance of otherwise abominable behavior diminishes in the larger perspective of doing something you really enjoy.

Just because she's strong enough to survive in her field and ignore the sexism doesn't mean it isn't there and should be tried and challenged.

- Twitter, is quite literally, a text based feed. There's no reason for this not to work without JS

- Netflix would depend on what you're doing. Much of it can work just fine as text, images and forms

- Youtube has a lot of text and the videos could be played without JS if they wanted to bother (HTML5 ftw!)

- Maps can also work OK without JS (just without the additional stuff, which is fine for progressive enhancement). Google "google maps without JS" for examples of what other people have done. I'm pretty sure you could also get around JS with pure HTML5 + CSS3, but I have no examples of it

I'm not sure what you even mean by "impact" and "intent". If by impact you mean treating a man differently than a woman, you're neglecting the myriad of factors besides sex which could have resulted in the distinction in treatment. The canonical example being the wage gap, which is ultimately caused by individual choice and not discrimination. If people insist on defining sexism, etc based on the result and not on the cause, then these so-called prejudices aren't worth fighting (because a huge portion of what we're fighting isn't prejudice but individual freedom).

As for "intent", how can one be accidentally racist if racism is defined in useful terms? One can conceivably accidentally participate in a racial disparity, for example, by being an English-speaking business owner providing a useful service, I might only advertise my services in English such that mainly English speakers benefit. Because the racial distributions vary across these language groups, Asians and Hispanics would benefit less, and a race gap might widen. This obviously isn't racism in the original sender of the wires, but people tend to use it in this sense, often it seems to use this ambiguity to make harsh accusations about individual motives while affording the accuser the ability to say "No, I didn't mean it _that_ way! Why are X people so sensitive/guilty/etc?"

The other plausible explanation is that "intent" is meant to refer to a decision by the conscious brain, and prejudice is a deeply subconscious activity. This is generally what I subscribe to, but I could never imagine making wanton and very damaging accusations about the happenings and motives in others when they can't even reliably tap into them. Even when we have existence of a disparity, our society seems quick to attribute it to discrimination, but this is rarely the case to any significant degree (for example, all of the data on the wage gap suggests that discrimination is responsible for a small fraction of the gap at very most).

Not really, mainly because there's very clearly two kinds of students. The ones who don't talk to their mentors at all outside of the weekly check-in (a single message) and the ones who utilize the mentor to the fullest. So if someone is asking you a question you generally don't have to worry about getting to 10 messages with them because it'll just happen.

Eh, this is exactly what happened to a friend of mine. The rationale later, was he had been promised X percent, but when the final deal went through, they diluted different pools of company stock to different percentages, and his values went down to 1/10 what he was expecting.

The dichotomy of objective/subjective is a weak rubric for complex situations involving multiple observers and actors all of whom have asymmetric experiences. Sexism is an intersubjective phenomenon which means that it can only be analyzed effectively by taking into account many viewpoints and reconciling them.

As an example in physics of a situation where multiple observers have to be reconciled, imagine a spaceship zipping along at some fraction of c, observed by two observers, both of whom are moving some fraction of c relative to each other. Their observations of the length of the spaceship don't match up naively, but special relativity tells us how to reconcile their measurements: This allows us to consider their measurements as describing the same underlying phenomenon.

In this situation, one of the observers, A, can infer what B sees because B's measurements should only depend on properties of B that A can observe. So A can construct B's measurements by observing B, without B having to do anything. This is a very easy epistemological situation to deal with.

In a complex social situation, A can't take independent measurements and get the big picture. B needs to tell A about how they perceive the situation. Furthermore, B can't reasonably tell A everything all at once: Imagine if we had to spill all of our guts every time we wanted to reach a common understanding. Nothing would get done! So, reaching common social understanding needs to be a process, a dialogue between people.

Understanding phenomena like sexism involves communicating and interacting with each other in order to understand how we communicate and interact with each other. It's a much more complicated epistemological situation than observing an external object, like a spaceship. That's why I think you won't be able to get a satisfactory definition that you would consider objective, especially one that fits in a hacker news comment.
Google example is a bad one as most startups fail in practice within few years. Most likely one works in one of those, not at the next business success.

In a typical startup a dilution means that the company run out of initial investments and has no way to get some form of a loan. So selling the ownership is the only way to continue. And if they succeeded with that it would not make the company more valuable. It just meant that owners were good at convincing investors. This is orthogonal to future value of the company.

I agree that people don't need a justification to charge money, but the rationale isn't bogus—it is hard to contribute without a stable income, underrepresented groups in tech tend to make less money in general, and getting paid could help that.

I'm not sure this license is the way to go, though. Unusual licenses tend to turn people off, and it's not clear how profits from this license would go to contributors.
A modern 17" Macbook Pro might be the one thing that would convince me to go over to the dark side.

Note that the Times qualified this with: "And there may have been an even more glaring telltale that the F.B.I. did not mention in court filings."

It's not possible to use an objective definition unless you can read minds. Use your best judgement, and keep in mind history and context. Actions don't exist in a vacuum.

Duplicacy doesn't use the filesystem events APIs. Instead, it checks the timestamps and sizes to identify modified files and only back up these files by defaults.

The main use case supported by Duplicacy but not any others including Duplicati and Arq is backing up multiple clients to the same storage while still taking advantage of cross-client deduplication. This is because Duplicacy saves each chunk as an individual file using its hash as the file name (as opposed to using a chunk database to maintain the mapping between chunks and actual files), so no locking is required with multiple clients. Another implication is that the lock-free implementation is actually simpler without the chunk database and thus less error-prone.

one of our users wrote a long post (https://duplicacy.com/issue?id=5651874166341632) comparing Duplicacy with other tools including Arq, based on his experience. I also added a comment to that thread comparing Duplicacy with Arq based on my read of their documentation.

Named lambdas are discouraged as un-Pythonic for what it's worth.

The other point in the article was that your process has now hard-coded even and sum, and composing them in python is a bit unwieldy.

I've run into a number of cases where it's just easier in python to write out the loops than string comprehensions or map/filter/reduces together because there's no threading macro or haskell's functional apply operator.

In the context of being a moderator for a panel of people who have gathered specifically to talk about their things, yes, it's a bad thing to geek out and ramble over someone. The audience haven't gathered to listen to the moderator crap on; they're there for the panelists.

Chairing a panel of professionals isn't about you getting to talk to them, it's about showcasing their positions for the audience. "Aw, he just got excited" is not an excuse in this context.
> If you look at companies that have made a lot of people rich, like Microsoft, Google, and Facebook, almost none of the employees who became rich had an instrumental role in the company’s success.

Is this true? Dan seems to kind of skim over this point without much proof or thought (which is unlike him!)

I don't have any data on this either, but it seems like a pretty big assumption to take for granted. The implication is that the early employees added little value compared to investors/founders, but in my experience this is the opposite. The team is literally who built the vast majority of the product.
"Cell phones."

I'm amazed at how many websites there are on my phone that take 15+ seconds to load... and they've clearly been "optimized" for phones in the sense that the site reacts to being on a mobile browser and lays itself out for a phone... if I wait for the whole thing to load.

(I see this less often, but it's also amusing how many sites pop up their "hey, you've been here for three seconds so clearly we are an integral part of your life from now on even though the main page layout isn't actually done rendering, would you please like us on facebook, subscribe to our newsletter, and tell us your mother's maiden name and SSN?

Which cultures?

There are social constructs but I would not deny biology. Effect of testosterone and estrogen on behavior has been studied extensively and it is quite clear from that why men and women behave the way they do.

Is women avoiding STEM a social construct? It most definitely is. Is women having lower salaries a social construct? In some cases yes, in some cases it is quite clear that they are not as risk taking as men, and are much more agreeable (they will not risk by asking a higher salary during a job interview).

With nearly 3/4s of State legislatures in the hands of one party (Republican), a Constitutional Convention is not farfetched, and a constitutional crisis won't be needed to force it, and California almost certainly doesn't want it (since CA is Democrat).
I'm willing to accept the duality of this situation and that issues in life are full of nuances that are not so easily dismissed as entirely one thing or another.

I'm curious, for those that seem so absolutely certain that things are only exactly one thing, where does this confidence come from? I have yet to see any evidence that life is that simple.

I don't understand the proliferation of these silly definitions of sexism and racism. It's like we spent decades attributing malice to every possible demographic gap, and now that the data don't bear out our conclusions, we redefine those sins so they're actually not even inherently bad (for example, sexism is now the perception of sex-based prejudice and not actually prejudice).

This is the pinnacle of stupidity and hubris. We should be happy with our social progress and move onto other real problems.
This sounds more like a structural problem.

1) All new employees go on 90 day contract-to-hire. So reduce the firing overhead to 0.

2) Similarly, just build some sort of extra ring of QA around new hire code, so all their codebase changes get reviewed by a peer -specifically to assess their long-term employment at the company.-

That 10:1 ratio's not set in stone.
I said it for years... acceptance by mainstream will be AR then VR.

Noone ever talks about the very significant downsides of CAN:

- CAN is very slow despite high baudrates. As used in automotive max 40% of all bits are actual databits. That value is for frames with 8 bytes. For 4 bytes that drops to 25% so people avoid these frames. That means in practice one gets only 1500 frames/s at a typical 250kbps.

- a roundtrip takes 2 frames because the CAN request frame is broken to the point that standards like J1939 do not use it.

- CAN-B error detection mechanism has holes in it due to bit-stuffing. Effectively the CRC is circumvented, so error detection rates are nowhere near the projections made in the design documents.

- CAN-FD increases the payload, stuffing 5x (typical) more databits in the same frame. That means bits are transmitted at only 22% of the datarate, worse for higher datarates, much worse for frames with only 8 bytes. CAN-FD hardly improves latency or the frame-rate, but it does much improve error-detection rates.

So the take-away here is, yes, CAN sucks, quite badly. CAN-FD improvements really only suit niche applications.

It is possible to do much better and achieve roughly 4x the CAN-B performance (on metrics such as throughput, latency and robustness (all of them)), on the same bus.
