So they don't want to maximize their income, rather, they want to minimize the hours needed to work to cover their bills. In both scenarios, the laborer is still chasing a higher wage (assuming hourly work). So not sure you're making sense.

I agree. There's two forms of diversity to try to increase: under-represented categories and intellectual. The latter is actually the most important as these people think differently. It's that which gives them both their extra potential for innovation and conflict within groups. A racial/gender mix that mostly think alike on key issues isn't diverse in this regard. That will change representation or wealth spread in the minority categories but not provide the benefits of diversity to an organization. The good news is people from different backgrounds and places are often already diverse a bit in their thinking. There's still some benefit.

Strongest is looking for both, though. I've done that in my social circle offline and online. We mostly get along despite strong disagreement on some topics. We learn from each other. They can do stuff I can't. We've come up with some great ideas together. They're mostly white but really different. At work, the split varies considerably with most of them I talk to being black over past months. A few were among most unique or hardworking people I've seen in a while, too.

So, worth considering both kinds of diversity when talking about the subject.

Of course I'm guessing, I don't work at Zillow and I've never seen the contract. A similar guess was also made by The Verge - "I’m all but certain some brokerage or MLS provider saw Wagner’s blog, got mad that their photos were being used to make fun of the houses they were selling, and complained to Zillow. And Zillow’s lawyers probably thought sending a scary letter would solve the problem, because that’s what lawyers are paid to do."

Even if there's no affirmative duty to police, if you become aware of something that potentially makes you in breach in a contract, you're supposed to try to stop it. Otherwise if you get sued for breach it looks even worse for you - "they knew about it and were too lazy to do anything to stop it"
Countries cannot profit by war perhaps but that won;t prevent wars. I don't think most wars are entered as the result of a cold economic calculation. They are caused by ancient programs written into our DNA before humans even evolved. So for the time being war is disincentivized by economics but I am confident we will eventually find reasons for a big war anyway
> these are mutually exclusive.

I wouldn't say they are, better wording would have been that they were developed for scientific purposes first, caring of the technical, before concern for the economic ramifications set in.

> a finite amount of currency

It is a matter of incentives. Right now, anyone holding most fiats in the world is incentivized by their controlled inflation to spend the money - and if they don't, it has negative economic ramifications because money that stops circulating (also known as a drop in monetary velocity) is effectively lost productivity until it reenters circulation. Traditionally, no millionaire just stuffed their mattress with Benjamins, but we are now seeing corporations effectively do this by sitting on hundreds of billions in cash offshore. The economic impact, however, is the same - money stops moving, and slows the economy because its not being spent. As money slows down, it increases scarcity, and you can quickly have a runaway deflationary spiral where the money keeps getting scarcer and scarcer thus incentivizing people to hoard it more and more while the economy stalls out.

I should disclaim this is independent of how bitcoin (and ether, doge, ltc, etc) naturally deflates through market adoption. All those currencies either have decreasing or static minting of coinage, which means that every new entrant to the market by definition increases scarcity of the coin and drives prices up. This, again, has a runaway effect evidenced by how almost everyone uses bitcoin - as a store of value, not as a means of exchange. Because simultaneously fees are high and transactions are slow, and the money is appreciating over time as more and more people start using it.

Your point relates back to my premise - technically, a finite money is fine as long as its highly divisible, like bitcoin is. The theory is that as the price goes up people just deal in smaller coin denominations. The problem is that doesn't address the economic incentives structure around appreciating currencies, which disincentivizes spending them.

> It's just a cryptographically enforced trust network to not print money when you decide you want to print money.

It isn't about one person having minting powers. The whole point is trustlessness. But you can still have all the promising aspects of cryptocurrencies (public ledger, trustless transactions, theoretically low response time with low fees, pseudonymity) while also having the coinage algorithm adapt to money velocity in the economy to attempt to push incentives towards spending rather than investing when they need to be so pushed.
Its all part of learning to listen to your body. My body tells me when it needs a nap, my thinking process gets cloudier, I have a harder time focusing. Time for a nap!

I can usually go to sleep with 5 minutes, if I can't, then I don't need a nap!

I set a timer for 20 minutes and get up when it goes off regardless. Sleeping for 30 minutes or more makes me feel tired when I wake up, and takes much longer to recover.
Just out of curiosity: How do you know Chrome is more secure compared to Chromium?
I don't think this statistic actually means much without a lot more analysis. Here's some things that could (not necessarily do) contribute to it:

We may simply be seeing that female Rust users use stack overflow less than male ones (normalized to other languages). Rust provides lots of other places to ask questions, /r/rust (including the "Got an easy question thread"), https://users.rust-lang.org/, the rust irc (and various other irc's for various major libraries). These may simply be more attractive to women than stack overflow (normalized relative to how attractive they are to men). They all prominently display the code of conduct, are more welcoming to new users (at least in my mind), less likely to criticize you for asking a bad question, care less about having you maintain a identity that is linked to your real name, etc.

It could also be a result of gender differences in answering survey's. Maybe male rust users are more willing to say they "want work" in a language they are unlikely to find work in. Maybe they are more inclined to click "want work" in every language they are vaguely familiar with (v.s. actually being proficient in) than women. Etc.

We also might be seeing that the niche rust fits in simply has less female presence than most other languages. Perhaps on average women are less inclined to experiment with new languages. Are more likely to be working in the sciences maybe (which would explain R and Python being high). Etc.
I'm sorry. I thought the "Show HN" was for projects people could try out. Will not use it for something I have not made again.
>We were born into this world, as a species, with nothing.

Some people are born with nothing, others are born with just about everything. Many laws, regulations, etc exist so that JUST existing with nothing is not feasible.

It is nigh impossible to live in this world like the birds do, flying from one food source to the next, roosting wherever you find comfort. Those with means have entire departments to police the underclass off of their property and setup obstacles to make sure riff-raff does not even get on the public property next to their private property (just look at how public transport is set up in big cities).

We protect those with means, ensuring those without cannot even live without selling their labor. Die or work. It's a little like slavery (I KNOW there are large differences between traditional slavery), you must be able to see that?

>but through the slow accumulation of societal benefits, over time, across an open market economy.

Pretty sure most of the improvements we have made for the common man, at least in the US, have come at the behest of those born with nothing standing up and saying "we won't work unless the rewards are distributed better/we get a 40 hour work week/we get cleaner and less dangerous work conditions/etc."

>It is not and will never be "fair", there will never be equality of outcomes,

No one wants equality of outcomes, equality of outcomes would not seem fair to most people. Instead we want equality of opportunity.

We can improve, most of us know it, and even though most improvement will only effect our kids or grandkids, I will still keep bitching that we need to improve until we're AS GREAT AS WE CAN BE.
> Did you read the rest?

I did, but I disagree. You're making a large assumption, which is that the group will follow the demographic average. This is not true; individual programming languages' demographics differ from the overall population.

And there's certainly no desire to "remove" anyone, selectively or not. It's about growing the pie, not placing artificial limits.

Also, this initiative is not about people new to programming overall, it's about experienced people who may not know Rust or haven't found a way to get involved with Rust as a project.

You mean you've reached the end of the Internet? What's it like? :-)

Entertainment websites tend to keep providing more things to do, so you never run out. You can read them all day, like watching TV.

To help break the habit, It might be helpful to interrupt the temptation to read just one more thing, by making it cost a bit more. You don't want it to be effortless.
You take that back.
Well, I'm in Canada and every restaurant near the university is less than $10/person. While a number of them are the normal fast food, both the Indian, Chinese, and Thai/Vietnamese places have excellent food. Last I checked, the Korean and Arabic places were good too, but since my dietary restrictions changed, I haven't been there.

I'd likely never buy a Blue Apron box for the simple fact that I have pretty tight dietary restrictions that I loosen a bit when I eat out (but not a lot). If I cook at home, I'm going to follow those restrictions pretty closely so most regular recipes won't work.
So could you change the sorting rule after X number of pieces are collected? This could them be run through again to double check/increase accuracy (i.e. Build sets this way).

>Children who experience parental divorce are less likely to marry heterosexually than those growing up in intact families

This would suggest, save for "correlation does not equal causation", that parental divorce has some effect on one's sexuality, or less likely in my opinion, that those who experience parental divorce are more likely to marry homosexually (not because they're gay), though I'm sure we'd both agree that's more far fetched.
My understanding of the current porn industry is that mindgeek have cornered the market in video via pornhub and all their other online destinations, and that all that 'free' content that is a click away is ripped off from publishing houses.

I have no idea how the porn business still makes money since everything seems to be free these days, but this interactive aspect seems a good way for some kind of commercial, fee paying service that interacts with hardware devices?

There are people on this thread who are in the industry, is my perception accurate or did I misunderstand the market?
I have no control but I am pretty positive that doing this sort of stuff resulted in great profits and value for the company. We had a trivial amount of turnover. I opened in 1991, but really started hiring in 1995. I sold for a decent nine digit sum in 2007.

In that amount of time, I can recall fewer people leaving than I have fingers and toes. In the end, we had a bit over 225 people and offices in three States.

I am lacking a control group, and I haven't the ethics to make one, but I'm convinced this was what enabled us to do what we did, as well as we did it.

I'm not very articulate, so I hope that helps. It bothers me to hear that people don't have their company invest in them. It wasn't me who made it all work, it was them who enabled me to go much further.

In professional analyses? Certainly. During election campaigns quoting the numbers spent on budget items? Almost never.

I guess I did a poor job explaining what I meant. If you ask the common citizen what our welfare spending is, they will quote you back the number mentioned by CNN or Fox on the news. Those numbers rarely include anything but the headline budget numbers, and do not delve into items such as tax credits before any transfer payments are made.
They called it a "backdoor", and reported it as a game-over vulnerability. Everything since then has been trying to walk the claim back.
All you'd have to do is get a large list of people in minorities who did work similar to each of the jobs you'd need to do. At least a handful for each one but preferably more if you had time. Then, send them detailed offers with follow-up interviews to see if they could perform. You'd have more of them on your team afterward.

Did you all do that? And do you have any data on it so interested outsiders can see what caused the failures and how to prevent that in the future?
To nitpick: FYI robots.txt is not enough. In fact, to make sure stuff doesn't show up at all in Google, you must not use robots.txt blocking, but allow everything, and use noindex meta tag.

> I don't think most wars are entered as the result of a cold economic calculation. They are caused by ancient programs written into our DNA before humans even evolved.

There are credible arguments that the Second Red Scare (which started after WWII) was the result of ruling classes in capitalist countries becoming afraid that they would be the victims of a proletariat revolution. A revolution like Cuba's would have been their worst nightmare.

That's perhaps not a cold economic calculation, but almost certainly an economic one.

There are also many Middle Eastern conflicts that the US is only involved in because we're afraid of losing access to oil.
Sure, but the term for this is "problem solving" and calling it "hacking" is disingenuous. I am not a big fan of the crowds that co-opt terminology for sort of superficial (e.g. marketing) reasons. I'm a bit hypocritical about it, because I think rms has historically done extremely well with this tactic, pushing ideals that I agree with. But there are other groups which do this that grinds on my soul.
I just do my grocery shopping online. The company I use charges $9.99 for delivery and you have to order more than $45, but otherwise it's basically just a regular grocery store (they're owned by one).

There's nothing unethical with this situation as the poster describes it. Is it unethical for you not to tell prospective buyers of your house what other offers you've received? Is it unethical for you not to tell the other side of a legal trial what character, logical, and emotional arguments you intend to use to sway the jurors?

No, some relationships have an inherently adversarial zero-sum component, and maintaining informational asymmetry could only be unethical if the other party will bind him or herself equally to not taking advantage of your sharing it. And speaking realistically, there isn't a snowball's chance in hell a middle manager of a large company with legacy systems would not fire this guy if this information got out and he were told to directly or was generally pressured to keep down department costs.

I was listening intently to the 1MB argument, and I'm not blaming bitcoin-core devs for trying to drive up the fee market. I would absolutely blame the ecosystem for staying on core, but the blocksize debate reflects a broader human principal than just something local to cryptocurrency. It represents change inertia. People in general resist change unless they can see immediate personal benefit from that change. The node network that dictates the bitcoin implementation on the primary block chain is interested in making money from mining, and higher fees individually only seem like greater profits.

As long as they could believe capping transaction volume and driving up fees wouldn't kill the currency or slow the appreciation in exchanges they are absolutely content with the status quo. And like I said, crypto-gold is useful. It just isn't a currency, and the way both bitcoin-core and the miner network responded to attempts to improve transaction volume reflect on the broader ideology in bitcoin itself - an ideology, like I said, I don't agree with. Not just the developers alone, but the devs and miners that both want inflation and small blocks over longer term adoption that may not translate into guaranteed profit.
You can't separate the technical facts from the interpretation though, because they only brought it up to interpret it incorrectly.

This isn't about keeping themselves off Google it's about removing someone else's results (someone who was stealing and re-labeling their products).
In addition to this, it's important to validate on your own system. Your company's specific mix of traffic characteristics, offer, etc., means that not everyone will see the same results. Even for best practices.

I completely agree, I wasn't trying to single out the bitcoin-core devs in my allegations. The core devs don't want to rock the boat because the miners would resist changes that threaten their immediate bottom lines (high fees per block minted). Its a tragedy of the commons.
