Why would a woman need to be alone with you? If someone wanted to, they could just fabricate it without being alone with you (since you said they need no evidence).

On the flip side, as a woman I could say being alone with a man, he's stronger than me so he could kill or rape me whenever he wanted, so never be alone with a man?

No it isn't, Gold is valued at 1238 USD per ounce.

or this; "The present findings suggest OP pesticides are more harmful than previously thought, even at low levels of exposure."

Then there is the Gulf War Syndrome which has been associated to high levels of insecticide use;

and this more recently, 'Pesticides: an update of human exposure and toxicity'

" A huge body of evidence exists on the possible role of pesticide exposures in the elevated incidence of human diseases such as cancers, Alzheimer, Parkinson, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, asthma, bronchitis, infertility, birth defects, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism, diabetes, and obesity. Most of the disorders are induced by insecticides and herbicides most notably organophosphorus, organochlorines, phenoxyacetic acids, and triazine compounds."

I think the questioning might have also been strange. How would you even phrase it?

"Do you think it's appropriate for a man and a woman to have a private work meeting?"

Sounds like a way to lead to no.

But if you asked, is it fine for two people to have a private work meeting together, and (follow up) what if they were different genders?

That's very much not my experience.

Some people - not many, but enough to be a concern - are simply toxic. They're not reactively toxic. They're as toxic as they can get away with being with as many people as possible.

They don't respond to deterrents or analyse career or personal risks rationally because they just can't help themselves.

OP and author here :)

Python is not the fastest programming language in the world either. As I said, I wanted something simple (less than 20 lines and quite readable) that performs well against random data. It is NOT intended to be used in production. You would have to add some checks for border cases and things like that. Plus it uses a lot of memory (although linear) because of the set and the dict, which is a drawback that the original implementation (suffix_matrix_stanford) does not have.

I clearly took simplicity over efficiency, and the advantage of this particular algorithm is that you compute the whole suffix matrix that you can reuse for the LCP.

Thank you for divsufsort, it seems to be really fast!
During my search, I found this algorithm that does really well against the others, including divufsort: https://arxiv.org/abs/1307.1417

Without thinking too much, I think it is quite easy to make the prefix doubling algorithm parallel if you have a good parallel sorting algorithm, but it would of course not be the best solution…

Maybe the feminists will realize how much indirect damage this policy of fear creates. Making women so self conscious and class-struggle conscious is affecting good men and making them change their attitude in a way. Suspecting all men of being potential rapists is not a good way to build communication and work/learn together.
This. The whole culture of working overtime and weekends as a "norm" is horribly unhealthy. Weekends were invented for a reason, i.e. to not work. I spend most of my weekends biking, hiking, socializing, working on personal projects, and generally trying to be healthy, both physically and mentally.

You are discussing about the university degree (as the parent did), but there are other usages of the word "ingénieur" in France beside diplomas.

In France "Ingénieur" is also a civil servant title, or a title given to someone who did that job and is now retired (I am "Ingénieur honoraire" and have a master but no "Ingénieur" diploma).

I've noticed a huge difference between China (and the greater Chinese speaking community throughout Asia) and the US, too. I also see a lot of hostility between the sexes in the US. Part of that is due to differences in how people use social media for public shaming and to share "outrage porn", but even in offline interactions there are just fundamentally different expectations.

It's absolutely striking how few American couples pour their resources together and run a business together. There are still some family businesses, but it seems like most are run by immigrants. To me, it seems like such a natural thing to band together with and feel you are on a team with the person you've decided to spend your life with. Of course not everyone can be an entrepreneur, but it also looks uncommon in the US for people to significantly invest in their partner's careers either. The focus is more personal.

Us vs them has some problems with nepotism and cases of corruption, but it does a lot better than "us vs us", IMO.

That is a good point! Were I a perpetrator I too would be worried about that..

Seriously though, what are you trying to say here? Because half of women have been harassed at work you're worried about being alone in the room with one because, you're afraid you'll harass one? Or because you think those reports are false and you'll be accused as well?

Show HN: Proposal for a new 3-pass protocol
http://gallium.inria.fr/blog/intel-skylake-bug/ another great blogpost on the topic
The title! It's not only about science, but anything taught in classrooms. As a parent myself, I don't want to live in a world where public education is compulsory and I, as a parent, have nothing to say about what the public school teaches my kid.

People are angry that some parents will object teaching evolution or global warming, the subjects so dear to many, hence the 'science' in the title. Let's not kid ourselves, for most people these two subjects are merely topics to discuss on the internet or over a drink.

But if I'd had a girl and a teacher, man or a woman, would come to the classroom teaching her how many pills she had to take, or what things to put in her body so her boyfriend doesn't have to use a condom, than I'd object. Of course, I can teach her at home about all things relationships. And of course, it's important for teenagers to be exposed to ideas different from the one taught at home (something that US campuses seem to abhor more and more these days). But relationships are so much more than the simple mechanics of penetration.

It's one thing for parents to have to fight what's taught in school, and entirely different thing when schools present alternative views and also provide best arguments for those views. The simple fact that there's creationism, global warming denials and anti-vaccine people, should not determine us to the give up the fundamental principle which moves knowledge (science included) forward. Dialogue!
As far as I remember the story from many years ago:

Synthetic wine has been under development for years. Now there's an SF startup making some.[1]

Custom liquor production, including wine, can be outsourced. Frank-Lin Distillers's Products in Fairfield, CA, makes most of the low-end liquor on the west coast. They have their own brands, and also do contract manufacturing. They used to make Skyy Vodka; the company behind Skyy was purely a marketing operation with no manufacturing capability. (Skyy was sold to Campari, which has their own plants, and they moved manufacturing in-house.) Ethanol comes in by rail in tank cars, it's re-distilled, de-ionized water and flavoring are added, and the product is bottled. Most of the effort goes into bottling and labeling; they fill a huge variety of bottles with about a thousand different labels, but only have about a hundred different recipes.

So once you get your wine formula working and passing blind taste tests, give them a call and have them start cranking it out.

This could have some holes, so I'm putting it out there to see if anyone can poke some in it, or seeing if it can stand up. It's flexible enough that it can encompass a family of ways of doing this -- but I'll consider it defeated if there's a fundamental flaw with the central idea of using AONTs to confound adversaries attacks. My plan with this is, if it does work out, not to patent it, but just to implement it securely under MIT license.

Yes! Considering that the same thing happens when I take a shower (sometimes) and when I meditate (usually), and that both of these are vertical in nature (usually), I think it's primarily to do with letting your brain 'rest'. Mindfulness and all that jazz.

I don't know what your life is like, but for me that's definitely the most likely explanation. When I'm not showering, meditating, or horizontal in bed, it usually means I'm reading something, watching something, working on something, or engaging actively in an internal monologue (that usually is more about reducing variables and maintaining control or the illusion of it, and less about creativity).

The moment my brain gets some free time, and there's nothing acute to worry about, ideas start to appear and I get excited.
"Give me a break", "you lose all credibility", and "get off your high horse" are not civil by any definition we're willing to work with or (I believe) that the community is willing to accept. I'm sure you would find that easy enough to agree with in the average case.

Precisely. I don't know how it's defined.

I know there is a bill called C-16 in Canada. That is if you get the gender of someone wrong 2x, you may be in a world of trouble. Since gender is such a big part of the English language, for me it's easy to get it wrong by accident especially with someone you just met. This is just one in a million things that one might get wrong.

Isn't it that UP elections, which happened after demonetization, were a clean sweep in favour of BJP? From what I understand UP voters are a good proxy for sentiments of traders, daily wage laborers and middle class. They seem to have accepted it with a bang.

In the article you shared, there are mentions of celebrated economists siding with both camps. I will leave up to the chosen government to weigh in those opinions and make a move.

Coming to GST - the earlier tax system was much more complex and leaky. If your turnover is below 75 Lakhs (small traders) you can opt for composition scheme which is even simpler. If your turnover is higher, it should be fair to assume your business is big enough to have a computer operator who can file 3 returns (excel sheet I guess) every month with benefits of input credit.

This seems to be conflating a number of different things.

1. What you call industrial yeast are simply isolated yeast strains used because of their favorable characteristics like quick fermentation or the creation of secondary flavors and aroma's. The alternative is spontaneous fermentation by whatever is already on the grapes or in the barrels, in which case you're going to have a bunch of different kinds of yeast and the end product is less predictable. But isolated strains of yeast and wild yeast are all just yeast. In beer brewing, almost all yeast comes from isolated strains, except for some unique sour styles like Belgian Lambic. Picking the right yeast for a particular kind of grape or a particular kind of wort is an art form and there is nothing industrial about it. We could call wheat "industrialized grass", but is that really more informative?

2. Oak flakes are sometimes added to fake oak cask maturing, but really only in cheap wine, and ultimately you have to ask yourself: do I enjoy the flavor or not? Barrels certainly have that warm fuzzy "authentic" and "artisanal" thing going for them, but using flakes, extracts and what-not can often be used to make a product that's almost as good at a fraction of the price, and that's great because it means more people get to enjoy good wine (maybe not great, but good and predictable, e.g. Jacob's Creek). Adding actual fruit flavorings is very rare and generally not allowed in the EU.

3. The list of 60 approved ingredients contains mostly preservatives like sulfites, without which it is very hard to keep the wine stable (I enjoy natural wines very much but every bottle is different), or finings like isinglass, gelatine or egg white to get the yeast and other particles to drop out of the wine and of which trace amounts might make it to the bottle.

Buy what you like, don't let your purchasing decisions be influenced by FUD.
I think they still have the most polished product, particularly when it comes to the web interface. I don't even have the Dropbox client installed and instead use the service via Arq to backup my music library which is about 500 GB and growing. However I hear the client is flawless and can sync files partially which is significant when it comes to large files.

Occasionally I host and transfer large files and the web interface simply works for that. All in all I need about a TB of storage and saving 3 bucks on Amazon Drive won't convince me to give up the advantage of a carefully designed and very clean, solid product.

Web storage feels like an afterthought on most other platforms - has anyone seen Amazon Drive online? It looks horrible, like a prototype or proof of concept. It's similar with OneDrive, though not as bad.
Frankly, I prefer to stay with the company that has been making storage their core product for a decade.

Furthermore Dropbox has a healthy eco system and serves as syncing platform or default storage option for many apps.
