Yes, I did go back and clarify my comment a bit already

Sexually harassment can definitely be morally wrong. But I'm not particularly outraged, mad, or upset by the sexual harassment scenario that happened at Uber, specifically. I don't think all sexual harassment should be lumped together, and doing so can lead to witch hunts.
The natural follow-up question I have, is why don't you care?
It is awesome how the tactics keep changing to respond to strategic changes. There will also be a shift towards training to hit towards both sides of the infield. Not everyone can be a power hitter, and classic baseball includes a lot of "small-ball" hitting.

The increase in power hitting is also cyclical in baseball. Remember last time it dropped it was due to changes in drug testing policies and procedures which may also be a cat and mouse game.

Slavery doesn't mean "unjust forced submission", it means "forced submission". There was slavery before 16th C Atlantic triangular slave trading, there's legal and illegal slavery, and maybe there's ethical slavery too (or maybe not).

Redefining the word so that prison slavery doesn't qualify seems obtuse, counterproductive, and doesn't even have the defense of being historical.
Oh god, like I needed another reason to loathe Aramark. So much worse than I even realized.
Obviously, a startup. And just because you're not in their target market, and so probably wouldn't have heard of them, doesn't mean there isn't something to learn here.
I have both Axler and Strang. I learned from Axler but occasionally use Strang as a reference. I find that Axler emphasizes the algebra part of linear algebra while Strang emphasizes the linear part. One isn't better than the other but one might make more sense to different people.
Neat, I guess. Not sure what conclusion I'm meant to draw or how it relates to the thread.

I wonder why ?

But serious question : of the four top people alive, any data on when they stopped climbing ? I would guess that would correlate with longevity.

I also recall reading somewhere that a disproportionate number of elite scientists and researchers in the 1930's - 60's were mountain climbers.

That sounds like a recipe for disaster, if that's the only thing you're relying on for input validation of #{id}.
Indeed. Especially important when you remember that most of the (many!) devices in a car sitting on CAN buses come from outside suppliers, and black-box testing of these modules can only go so far to verify the CAN implementation and stability.

AFAIK, Ford actually mandates that their suppliers use a standard CAN stack provided/licensed by Ford (FNOS, the Ford Network Operating System) to try and ensure a level of quality in implementations. It's a good idea, one I haven't heard of other automakers doing (although I'm not in the industry any more)
If you are processing card present transactions, you shouldn't use Stripe, which is priced for online transaction fees.

I highly suggest reading up on interchange fees for various cards before taking a swipe at Stripe.

2.9% + $0.30 is absolutely rediculous to pay to transfer money, but blame the card companies. You simply can't get cheaper flat pricing on card transactions. Even online debit interchange fees are rediculous.

So if you do want cheaper, you need to try and find a provider that charges based on the underlying interchange fee. And then once you do so, you need to account for the variable rates in your accounting (can be a pain depending on your situation, especially if you don't know the interchange until the customer enters their card number), and even then, you're probably saving at max 1%, but likely a good bit lower on average.

You could always opt with ACH, but the more reliable way of authorizing ACH these days is using a service like Plaid that has the user log into their Bank on your site. Which is super sketch if it's the first time I'm purchasing on your site. I really wish Dwolla was able to upturn the industry ($0.25 flat fee for transfers was brilliant), but who wanted to sign up for yet another account to purchase stuff...

Payments suck.
Just because it's an unpleasant time in the founder's life doesn't mean that it's above criticism and tough discussion.

Look, the dude raised tens of millions of dollars and failed. Those are facts. Simply lauding someone for being brave about the failure or even raising money in the first place is dumb.

They had a large opportunity, pitched big promises in order to get their funding, and failed because they could no longer exploit a labor market. And we're supposed to ignore that because it might hurt his feelings to discuss it openly, after he himself opened himself up for that discussion by publishing a post-mortem?

The positive culture of failure in startups is childish and enables the continuation of poor decision making. Business isn't a summer camp where everyone gets to hold hands and win participation trophies; people win and people lose. By not being honest about why they lost and learning the lessons from it - even at the cost of potentially hurting someone's feelings - the community does not advance.
That is really for convenience, you can still be explicit:

if(foo === 1 || foo === "1" || foo === true) { ...
I didn't say it was hearsay. I didn't say I didn't believe the people reporting the problems. I'm just noting that there's a lot of room between "some employees were harassing others, largely unknown to most management" and "there's a pervasive culture of harassment that goes all the way to the top, and includes much of management".

And I can fully believe everyone reporting problems believes they are right while withholding judgment as to whether their interpretation of their situations, which were generally highly emotional and formed during extreme stress, is entirely consistent with reality once the other side has a chance to state their case. We should always get both sides. Humans aren't very good at representing stressful situations with other humans objectively.
Successfully free climbing the freerider is a lifetime achievement even for professional climbers, often requiring up to a week on the wall. To do it in under 24 hours is the realm of the most elite climbers only.

To be able to approach it as "four hours of light exercise" as Honnold did is an incredible feat in its own right, even before the whole certain-death-for-one-mistake bit gets factored in.
That's a great question! I can't speak for everyone, but personally I don't think asking another adult if they want to have sex with you is morally wrong, even in the workplace.

I think Americans are way too sensitive when it comes to sexuality. They repress it way too much.

For reference, here is the accusation from the blog post:

On my first official day rotating on the team, my new manager sent me a string of messages over company chat. He was in an open relationship, he said, and his girlfriend was having an easy time finding new partners but he wasn't. He was trying to stay out of trouble at work, he said, but he couldn't help getting in trouble, because he was looking for women to have sex with. It was clear that he was trying to get me to have sex with him, and it was so clearly out of line that I immediately took screenshots of these chat messages and reported him to HR.

I am a big Alex Honnold fan, but no matter how much your skill, free solo climbing will kill you one day. Alex Honnold is not the first free soloist, and won't be the last. He is great climber, and has no fear of heights it appears. Your average person or climber is not going to try to replicate what he is doing due to their desire to preserve their life. We do not see many people jumping gorges in rocket sleds like Evel Kneviel although he was massively famous. Of course some will try to replicate but they are also special people that are daredevils as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_solo_climbing has a list of free solo climbers. A large number of them have died.
I think that there are well more than 1% of users, maybe 20% or higher, that never share files except to attach a picture to an email, upload it to Facebook, or something similar like that. It's a bit of a nitpick, though, but we do often forget the "non-power" computer users.
I feel like him doing that with a spreadsheet is more impressive than having some kind of photographic social memory.

He cared about people enough to make familiarity and kindness a discipline and habit that he lived. Despite many of our apps, life hacks, and "social medias" we miss the simple insight; social kindness is rooted in just giving enough of a damn to have a discipline for it. Any tool is secondary.
Indeed it does feel like there is an iCloud hack every other year.
Honnold climbed the boulder problem variation, which is 13a. The Teflon Corner at 12d is slightly easier but less secure, so worse for soloing.
There are more offensive slurs than "gay", but my point wasn't to make an equivalence, only to say that punishing someone in accordance with a relatively new social norm isn't a universally good idea.

Would just like to put in a mention for Andy Barto (Sutton's pHD advisor) who has contributed as much as Sutton to reinforcement learning.

Although Barto is retired now, Barto's lab at UMass Amherst is still alive and kicking (led by another of his pHD and incoming UMass asst. professor in Phil Thomas).
Your perspective is uninformed, to say the very least. If you have never been in any religious tradition then you are wholly unqualified to pronounce on its psychological dynamics or its doctrinal interpretation. Multiple religious denominations are based on the notion of predestination, in which one's position on earth is precisely a proxy for the state of one's soul and eternal prospects.

this is a strange question. most users of a tool like this would expect it to be available from different computers and devices, like virtually any other website they need to create an account for. and you'd certainly want this data backed up.

My mother is living with my sister in California and we pay I think about $25 an hour for help with eldercare. The person we chose only gets half, the agency gets the other half. Knowing what I know now, we probably should just hire people off of craigslist and give them a lot more money than the agencies give them but that would require a lot more vetting from us. These now unemployed caregivers could go on craigslist but of course without the name/insurance/reputation of some company behind them.

Climbing has many different disciplines, lets not confuse marathon runners with sprinters. Honnold is the best big wall speed climber out there, hands down. Of course, to set speed records these days you not only need to be in top physical condition, you've got to compromise or abandon altogether your reliance on safety gear.

We're talking about the FBI, not the NSA, and court documents.

> Meanwhile the alleged leaker allegedly used her work computer to contact The Intercept.

This really should be ignored. The FBI included it as probable cause for their search and arrest warrants, but she had e-mailed them asking for a podcast transcript months earlier. As far as leaking, she mailed the document to them and had no electronic communication at all. The Intercept blabbed that it was postmarked Augusta, GA and was printed, which is what gave her away. They screwed up and if they want anyone to feel safe leaking to them again, they need to own up to it and describe how they are going to fix their procedures to protect their sources in the future.
So is this perceived as a lateral move? Or is this a strong negative indicator.

> What are the odds they just drive a truck full of nuts to Mexico?

Not very likely, but certainly possible. I don't see the advantage though (could exist, but I just can't think of it). I've never seen US theft enforcement and Mexico doesn't have border controls like the US, but they do have traffic stop inspections and lead-based enforcement. Any box trailer can get stopped at any time and asked for customs documents and manifests. If you stay just within the Central Valley, you'll likely never get stopped, unless you're visibly overweight. And I'm not sure the market is there in Mexico...you'd probably end up re-exporting to the US where the documentation from the origin would have the same problem (how do we make it look like we grew this instead of stole it?).

This is false. Remote-controlled VBIEDs are absolutely a thing
Very overblown. Almost histerical paranoia. Even people in Vilnius are not so afraid of Russia as people here in the UK.
> I'd ballpark that it's been free climbed by 100-300 people?

If you restrict that to people who've done it in a day you're probably down to a couple dozen at most.

I don't make any particular claim about how the government identified the source. They also have access logs and apparently only 6 people accessed the document.

I do think that The Intercept bungled this in not stripping the watermarks; I don't shield them from criticism even though I value their reporting. But I do not necessarily accept the government's version of events. Parallel construction is not unheard-of.
Dominionism, which is derived from Calvinism and which enjoys significant popularity in the US. There are some extremely militant and aggressive strains of Christianity out there. Just because you're not familiar with them doesn't mean they only have a few adherents.
I've started to use pintrest a lot lately (finding ideas for some DIY furniture). I actually kind of like the product for discovery. I haven't pinned items from other sites, just saved items from other people's boards.

My biggest qualm is the number of low quality ads. Ton of stuff for diet drinks, teeth whitening, skin cream and the like. And fidget spinners, lots of fidget spinning ads. Perhaps I haven't used the app enough to get more personalized ads, but I do hope the side of the service improves.
The gender field will have to be changeable as well, since people might come out or change after they join, or after a record is created.

The biggest problem I have with any productivity, life improvement tools, todo lists, etc is not the tools themselves but getting past the apathy and lethargy of not using said tools.

That is I just can't create good habits or care enough to use them even though I know I could really improve my life if I did.

I would imagine its sort of like exercising (albeit I actually do do that).

Some never do it, some do it no matter what but the mass majority get on and off the wagon. We do it for a short post New Years'-eve-like period and then just eventually stop.

I need some way to force good habits like a drug (and yes I know about James Clear who blogs about this).

I'd argue that a lot of terrorists don't care. They want to do it themselves, die in the process and be glorified by their own. Otherwise they would probably just hide bombs somewhere to detonate them instead of strapping them onto themselves.

Even using SSH I find it to be much snappier than the competition. Killer feature for me: key repeat and remapping caps-lock to escape on the Apple Keyboard. I'm actually amazed how Blink manages to go beyond what I thought were fundamental limitations of iOS. It even has full support for an external monitor as independent second screen at full resolution! (not that I use that much, but it kinda blew my mind)
One of the reasons I pulled my OnStar module from my GM Vehicle... Lack of authentication in the GMLAN CAN network. Not a big deal for an isolated system (well, almost isolated, there's still the FM radio) but "isolated enough" to mitigate casual attacks.
We ended up in Bend, Oregon rather than Boulder and are happy. Prices are lower (for now) and traffic is nonexistant IMO. But there's something wrong with the development patterns in much of the US that means those things will get worse over time unless we do things differently.
You bring up a fair point but tapes not really infinitely rewritable. You can take something like a 60's PDP-8 and write a byte of data to the same core address 333 thousand times per second for at least half a century and it'll be fine. In my head that's a 14 or 15 digit number of writes which no tape or even flash memory can withstand.

In theory much like a hard drive head floats on an air bearing over the platter it should be possible given enough development time and money to make a tape head that floats and never quite touches tape. I worked at a place in the 90s that had IBM floating tape transport where compressed air maintained some loops bouncing in channels to make sure the tape was never snapped taut and therefore stretched but I'm taking about actually floating a non-contract head which AFAIK has never commercially shipped for tape (although it would be cool to be proven wrong).

I was going to bring up how tape can throw oxide after a couple decades in storage but I suppose core could have dissimilar metal corrosion over the course of a century or maybe temperature cycles would stress and crack individual cores after a couple centuries unless kept at a constant temp. Also in theory non-archival core could exist just like non-archival tape definitely exists. So fair enough on that account.
>I'm surprised that we are still at a point in society where people legitimately don't understand the difference between workplace-appropriate behaviour, and harassment.

I'm not, especially when it comes to tech which is full of young 20-somethings, some of whom may be brilliant when it comes to programming and mathematics, but dumb when it comes to social cues and social interactions. A lot of this stuff gets figured out with experience.

>Once is asking. Twice is harassment. Propositioning a report is a fireable offense.

Sure. Sounds like a good general rule that may be too permissive in some cases, and too punishing in other.
