Nice, but change the concept of a file, and you'll run into all sorts of interoperability problems.
Do you know what comments made that woman uncomfortable? If not, have you asked management? Maybe it's not a false accusation at all (in fact they don't use the term sexual harassment, which is important), but a valuable lesson for your future, and for you in general.

From the Wikipedia article:

>As it happens, the choice of 999 was fortunate for accessibility reasons, compared with e.g. lower numbers, because in the dark or in dense smoke 999 could be dialled by placing a finger one hole away from the dial stop (see the articles on rotary dial and GPO telephones) and rotating the dial to the full extent three times. This enables all users including the visually impaired to easily dial the emergency number. It is also the case that it is relatively easy for 111, and other low-number sequences, to be called accidentally, including when transmission wires making momentary contact produce a pulse similar to dialling (e.g. when overhead cables touch in high winds)

So maybe by fortune only, but it doesn't sound so crappy.

On the other hand, anecdotally (we have had 112 or 113 here for as long as I can remember) I have seen reports on newspapers of people (with movenments limited, like being tied or wounded or however impaired) that managed to "dial" these "low" numbers by just quickly pushing and releasing the hook button with their foot (or nose, etc.).
Google is actually working on this. At this year's IO they announced that they are working with silicon manufacturers to include hardware acceleration for their TensorFlow Lite framework. This makes it possible to do on-device speech recognition and natural language processing while keeping the power consumption at acceptable levels.

Charges? I don't think you mean criminal charges, but you may mean a more formal HR investigation.
It's certainly a phenomenon that exists, we've all seen and heard of false accusations to damage people's reputation, business, and such. "Scandals" have been around since humans have, it's gossip, it's libel, it's whatever you call it.

Question: did they provide you with any substantial evidence?

Anyway, ultimately your case and many others is why the law is at it's very core based on an innocent until proven guilty paradigm. Once you take that principle away, you put all the power in the accuser and none in the accused, which is objectionably unjust.

I've recently seen a few very disturbing comments on HN and from similar people (above-average education, born into privileged conditions, politically left, etc.), who naively believe that this is a bad or somewhat ineffective paradigm, and that we should "just believe" rape accusations, because ???? shrug. It disheartens me that some people can be so blindly ignorant about the law and human nature. We only need to take a short walk down history lane to explicitly see that if you give one side of anything human-related an enormous amount of power (like in this case if accusers are believed before evidence), there will be many who abuse it. It is human nature, and the law prevents it from reining free and causing utter chaos.

In your case, by the sounds of it they did not present to you any form of evidence (right?) to show you your misconduct. No sexually harassing text transcripts, no internal email transcripts, no witnesses, nothing. What this is is chaos and injustice, under the guise of some very malformed concepts of "progressiveness", and it's unfortunately ever-more prevalent.
Honestly, i would quit and burn the bridge. If they can't show any evidence and can't even tell you what wrong you did, why bother dealing with this nonsense?

It looks like libxo does the output in structured format, but what about input? (For chaining commands together with pipes). Did the FreeBsd porting work[1] implement the input side with libxo, independently of libxo, or not at all?

(Not to diminish libxo --it looks pretty cool, and I didn't know about it before-- just curious.)

The problem is that the rules are not written. Polite guys don't get laid.
Having used many languages over the years, the biggest advantage I've seen to dynamically typed languages is that they're easier to learn.

Python and JavaScript are probably the most common "first languages" taught in school. The dynamic typing and lack of complex IDE, compilation, and build system make then easier to learn. Most founders only have a few years of programming experience. Most startups can't afford to hire anyone experienced. Given these constraints, using these languages makes sense.

Dynamic language aren't any faster in practice. You can write quick and dirty spaghetti code in anything. It's only the naive that consider building large, or potentially large, projects in languages without static typing and strong IDE support.

In time I've realized that dynamic typing doesn't give any real advantages. It allows you to reuse variables, something that should never be done. It allows you to put different objects in the same array without having anything in common, which also seems like a bad idea. What else do you get? The language still has types they're just not visible when your writing code. I would much rather have compile-time types so I can use auto complete

Even if the explanation were true it would still count as sexual harassment though.
There are several possible sources of correlation on the "impulse response" of the LIGO detectors (the whole detector, from building construction to the electronics and detectors in itself) so it is not surprising that might happen. Or maybe it's something in the source of the signal

But the signal is still stronger than the noise

Besides the "poking the data in weird ways until it stops meaning anything" issue
Now, the process as described in the MS analysis differs from the description provided by F-Secure.

MS: "[W]hen the malicious MBR starts, it loads additional code from sectors after the MBR, which in turn proceeds to encrypt the Master File Table (MFT). After the encryption process is complete, the user is presented with the following ransom message, which is different from the typical ASCII skull and crossbones shown by the original Petya"

(This suggest that first the MBR is overwritten conditionally and that the encryption happens on a reboot in this modified MBR.)

The F-Secure blog, on the other hand, suggests [edit: at least in my reading] that there's first a process running in user-mode doing the file encryption, followed by another step, in admin mode, attempting to modify the first disk sectors (including the MBR).

To me, the two sources (MS and F-Secure) are contradictory.

Edit: Can it be that the MS analysis is about the "double infection" of an already compromised machine, as described in the F-Secure blog? (Different teams may start at different points with their analysis. As the analysis proceeds, the patterns found by the various teams may merge into a single representation of the workings of the malware.)
First off, Japanese SFHs are on incredibly tiny lots compared to how zoning works in most American cities.

But the bigger issue with your argument here is that much more of Japanese residential land in major cities is used for multi-family housing than single-family. I'm not saying we should not allow single-family homes to exist. I'm saying zoning currently allocates far too much land exclusively for them. Tokyo is a pretty terrible counter-example for that.

It's the same thing with cars. Nothing wrong with driving, American cities just make them hyper-dominant rather than one option among several.
What a clickbait title. I'd welcome "free speech restriction" that forbids misleading titlea.
It popped into my head due to the linguistic disconnect - Sam is saying that he accidentally did something, but Toby is clarifying that, no, he did it on purpose; he just might not have been aware of the circumstances and potential consequences.

In other words, while it might be possible to "accidentally sexually harass" a person, there's much more involved than "did the harasser think they were harassing?"

Rather, it matters whether the person in question deliberately chose to perform the actions that compose harassment.

To use programming terminology, sexual harassment is an interface, not a class. One need not deliberately implement it if all the requirements are met.

Absolutely! He's just not in such a disproportionate position of power over the women he harasses as Dave McClure and Justin Caldbeck are.

He has his white male privilege, magisterial facade, and all that, but not millions of dollars and an old boys investors network behind him. But that definitely doesn't excuse his behavior. And his explanation is bizarre.
There isn't a 1:1 mapping of binaries to documentation or completion scripts. That idea won't work out.

"Defining a standard format" hasn't been a successful practice in the Unix world. Many standards consist essentially of the bare minimum that everybody can agree with.

Unix command-line interfaces are already structured (as a list of strings), and more structure would be hard to support at the binary level. There are too many possibilities of doing that, and most CLI programs wouldn't even need that.
This opinion is deeply offensive to me and I demand that HN censor it.
Absolutely. I'm not saying nothing happened. I'm not defending him at all. I'm just saying the word "sexual" is counter productive.

Harassment is harassment. It is not the fact that something is sexual in nature that bothers me. It is the fact that someone abused their position of authority.
People aren't archetypes or labels;
that's too black & white, un-nuanced thinking. Psychological and sociological reseach proved most people act however they're expected to within a given power dynamic circumstance, except for a few outliers which will go their own way, for anti- or pro-community.

This wrong "bad apples" analogy as it applies to police or genocide perpetrators also is dangerous because it's simply untrue. Well meaning people will commit atrocities if directed to by a superior authority figure; the Stanford Prison experiment and the Milgram experiments underscore this.

Instead, there must be social and business pressures brought to bear to prevent emboldened behavior with accountability.
If there is boundaryless
affluenza anarchy, spoiled brats will overtly behave however they wish. If there are consequences, the behavior will be reduced and become covert. There must be constant vigilance on the part of those
stakeholders to enforce consistent accountability for professional/personal behavior.

> Note that money in the end will always be spent on meaning regardless of rich or poor. . The poor don't save because they can't see what to do with it.

The type of "easy come, easy go" behavior is way more prevalent among poor than rich. I remember reading an article (impossible to dig out with generic keywords I can come up with) describing a study in savings pattern where they distributed small amounts of extra cash to poor households. Some of the money went to cover bills, so deleveraging previous debts, but even at those households that ended up with a surplus of cash the savings never materialized into anything meaningful and long-term. Several reasons for that:

1) Accumulated previous debts for things like cars, medical debts, furniture rentals. Some with ballooning interests, some with predatory late fees that have their own ballooning interests.

2) Accumulated ongoing liabilities for things such as parental support.

3) Because of the way collection agencies or government can always freeze the current assets and garnish the paycheck, general distrust of US banking system and preference for hard, cold cash.

4) General feeling of lack of control over one's finances, and surprisingly rational decision to blow the extra cash immediately because #yolo, and one never knows when a relative, an ex, a random bill collector or The Man will take that money anyway with nothing to show for it.
Sensitive title, where do we draw the line between free speech and slanderous hateful content? We need to change this title to reflect what is being written on the site.
"Delete Hate Speech or Pay Up, Germany Tells Social Media Companies" is the original title and a much better indicator of what's actually happening.

It sound like a paradox, though. Does the survival of free speech require the policing of speech that threatens free speech?

Escaping and passing strings as arguments (without losing e.g. " characters) is often a problem. It would be so nice if this would be solved in a shell the way it works for function calls in propper programming languages like Python or Rust (i.e. various ways to specify strings with special characters and a good format method for string composition) with Haskell-like function call syntax.
Maybe?

Only first day:

A (suspect) calls B.

B (becomes a suspect)calls C and D.

C (becomes a suspect)calls E and F.

D (becomes a suspect)calls G and H.

...

It is easy to quickly grow in number of wiretapped devices with a similar scheme, even after some deduplication, even "wrong numbers" will have become (temporarily) suspects and thus intercepted.

What is impressive is the direct ratio of 26/3,292,385, which is more or less 1/126,630, I guess we could call it the "needle in the haystack" approach.
I don't have too much useful advice. I don't think there are any positive outcomes for you here, so find another employer ASAP. If you had been at this job for a long time, or you were worried about vesting options or something then it would make sense to consult with a lawyer and defend yourself a bit, but as it is it seems like management at this company is scared and trying to hide you until your internship is up.

I think it's totally bizarre that they would restrict you from talking to any female co-workers. If I were to guess at this situation with no more information than you have given, there is probably some consensus from many employees that you are 'creepy', and since they aren't willing to fire you for 'creepiness' they are just going to put you in the basement until your contract is up.

Good luck, consider whether you are generally creeping people out (maybe privately ask some male co-workers that you know if this might be the case), make sure your personal hygiene is good (shower every day, wear clean clothes everyday), etc. Maybe you do all this already and you are just a regular guy getting a bad deal, I don't know obviously, but you wouldn't be the first stinky guy in tech if that happens to be the issue.

"Seem skeezier"? We're talking about serial stalking, harassment, and sexual assault with multiple victims. Unless there are major facts we don't yet know, what Sacca did, even if part of a "pattern", pales in comparison.

And yet it's his face splashed over the "SEXUAL HARASSMENT SCANDAL" headlines, siphoning energy and criticism from the actual monsters, because he is a TV star so his being mentioned is more sensational.

Dave McClure is basically being given a slap on the wrist for obviously firing-worthy offenses. Would that happen if a celebrity wasn't taking the brunt of the press?

(a) No, not one where you have any control whether it goes bad or not

(b) Your day job is not a dating service

(c) If you can't figure out a and b on your own, you're not mature enough for a position of power
The approach I took to my shell was to pass JSON objects about as the primary data type but fall back to text streams when the data doesn't look like JSON.

The problem with passing objects around though is it can cause issues with the parallel nature of pipes. ie the programs in a chain of pipes can run concurrently since the data is being passed is just a stream. But with objects you need to read the object in its entirety to ensure it is a valid object. This means each process is waiting for the previous process to finish outputting it's object before the next can start processing it. While this is less of an issue with smaller chunks of data in a chain, it would become really noticeable really quickly as your data scales up.

I'm sure will be workarounds for the above problem but my project is still young so there are other bugs I'm more focused on (for me I'm more interested in getting an IDE-level auto-complete implemented so writing one liners in the Shell is as natural as writing your favourite language in your preferred development tool.
That's a very immature way of dealing with the problem (by the management). The issue likely has 2 very different perspectives and both people involved should be mature enough to be confronted with the other's perspective so it can be dealt with fairly.

For example, you might be sitting opposite of some female co-workers and frequently meeting glances might be interpreted by them as "staring" etc. while you might not even be consciously aware that you do it ... Solution: put up some optical barrier after talking with all people involved together.
> so you don't ever make anyone uncomfortable again

This is not within OP's (or anyone's) power.
I faced the same situation, although it wasn't 'sexual' harassment, just harassment in general apparently.

Basically the company I worked at was taken over and me and some others were forced out. The others rage quitted. I had false complaints made against me, and I was suspended while they 'investigated', I just quit.

My advice would be to walk away. If you know you've done nothing wrong and there's no evidence, you don't want to be in that kind of toxic environment.
I agree they are orthogonal, but that does nothing to support the point that analog computers could be even more powerful than quantum computers.

You haven't really explained your second point, but assuming it's true, you'll only be able to "recognize the direction" within your margin of error. Your noise floor will be way above the required precision to explore a high-dimensional space.

Analog computers never achieved common use because of noise and lack of practical error correction. Even the human brain evolved to be mostly digital and we almost never focus on being exact.
And lists, and maths, and error handling, and ...

To fix all those things you wouldn't end up with a traditional Unix shell, which I think would be a great project, but there are clearly two mutually exclusive projects to do:

1. A Unix-like shell (this)

2. A robust shell suitable for writing scripts
Not having the same code on paper and on machine so to speak does make debugging typescript a little hard. It's a little bit of a black-box.

I code typescript for Angular 2/4, and although yeah, the aforementioned debugging pains are annoying, the time saved on having types to enable linting and strong predictable variable comparisons, is much greater.

Also, needing console.logs everywhere should be discouraged. Your code should be clear enough that you don't need a console.log debug line to print the boolean result of a comparison, for example. This is the whole point of typescript like I said, to make variable comparision and management easier so that you don't need that console.log line...
I'd bet we all had that phase were we wanted a thing to be in control, fulfilling all our dreams, thus digging for access.
Or the author justifiably thinks that a shell shouldn't support functions?
There should be no one on one meetings for any plausible business venture. Both sides needs to have multiple players to protect all interest and keep discussions to the subject at hand.

I would suggest than anyone who does get into such meetings simply demand the presence of multiple persons. This isn't a buddy lending money to another.
How a group of civic technologists helped swing UK’s General Election
Leave but before you do so find a chance to talk to a nontrivial percentage of the staff and explain that this thing happened, affected you deeply and it was never your intent to upset anyone and it has really negatively impacted your experience at a formative stage in your career so whoever made the accusation could they please be aware in future that they may have it wrong about people and accusations can hurt. No issues otherwise enjoyed the company, see you all later sorta thing. Makes the point but it's not "in your face" to the accuser, and also makes the management aware they should be less manipulable.
Isn't that a classic example of survivorship bias.
