I mean to say:

It's still a car. An electric car, to be sure, and there have been quite a few of those for quite a long time. Electric drive systems are extraordinarily common.

It's not like Tesla came out with a radically new design for what car means and dropped an Alcubierre drive in the thing.
According to the author's forward, the Apollo astronauts (yes, the book + movie are THAT old) considered reporting a large black monolith on the Moon.

"Sadly, greater wisdom prevailed" :P
> we should focus on the top 5 because that would have more impact on women's health

Eh, sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but isn't this true? Obviously it's best to pursue everything possible at once, but with limited resources it is optimal to hit them in order of magnitude.
And pretty much every grocery store on the East Coast... they are all scrambling to play "follow the leader" with Wegmans.
I don't think the complaint was stylistic in nature (though I may be mistaken...?). Other than GitHub's puzzlingly callous reaction to her medical emergency, the entire thing reads like a narcissist blaming everyone else for every imagined slight and excusing herself for far worse. It's the Fundamental Attribution Error in article form.
In which case, computers, as in microprocessors, are extraordinarily bad at math.

Without the appropriate programming they can't do anything.
I can't imagine getting the same level of care in a profit motivated healthcare system without bankrupting our family.

That happens all the time in the US without bankrupting people.
Discussing outliers isn't that interesting, to be honest. There are exceedingly few cities in the US where not owning a car is practical for the vast majority of people.

Sure, you can live pretty much anywhere without a car - but you are now in the extreme minority trying to make that work and likely are making significant lifestyle changes/sacrifices to do so. I grew up without a car in my household in a very midwest giant-suburb style metro area, and it was truly a different lifestyle. I would not go back to that.

However, living in Chicago without a car is an amazing liberating experience, not the hinderance it was elsewhere.
I assume you would agree with me, though, that it makes little sense in the present discussion to talk about "meritocracy" without taking into account how Github implemented the concept.
We've just spent half a year moving a legacy* Java app to nodeJS and now some of them want to redo everything in Rails.

What you're doing is technical analysis. It doesn't work.
Yes! Per recommendation from my sister in law. My wife and I cook for two and are generally quite satisfied:

- generally right-sized portions and ingredients pared down to 2 people

- excellent variety of ingredients and cuisines, including many things I had never seen before, and some things you'd have to go to an international market to try ro find

- nice rotation of seasonal recipes

- generally great flavors – they know how to coax fledgling chefs into enough seasoning! Frequently recipes come with a nice spicy kick.

- preparation is somewhat chef'ed up but not overly fussy

- recipes encourage mise en place and are generally easy to follow

- simple and functional mobile app, as well as fairly active and occasionally helpful forums

- cheaper than eating out, at least at this level of cuisine. More expensive thab a market probably but you don't have to plan and shop and worry so much about leftovers

Downsides:

- 6 day advance notice to cancel a delivery – you need to keep on top of your game!

- ingredient selection tends towards the inexpensive

- not feeling the return of packaging via mail – I miss the days of Webvan, and still have an old plastic crate of theirs poking around somewhere I think!

- prep can be deceptively involved for these recipes – for me total prep time is 2-3x what the recipe states for cooking time
think about all the 'promoted stories', 'paid content', ads that look like search results, astroturfing on reddit, etc etc.

The term 'fake news' is misleading. This stuff isn't 'news' at all. The stories often have poorly drawn conclusions that misinterpret primary sources and get people's tempers going, or make them aware of new products, or herbal supplements, or garner more subscribers, etc.
While there is something to be said for screening for genetic diseases, etc, I was referring more to how pro-life people more seem to care about people having babies, rather than those babies being treated well and having a good life and good future. Healthcare, education, nutrition, and safe & stable housing are key to a young family.

I hear a lot about how we shouldn't have abortions, but I worry more about all the kids and babies in foster care that aren't getting the love and attention they deserve. Another hugely underfunded system that is notorious for abuse.

I've got nothing against people being for life, and having kids. I'd suggest they go adopt a few kids rather than having them though. It's probably what Jesus would want you to do.

But I can't and won't prescribe for everyone or even me before I'd have to make such a choice. Life is strange, and complicated in so many ways. Ways so crazy people couldn't invent them if they tried. I personally don't think we need to make it harder on anyone.
Not saying it's true in this case, but I think that's typically code for "people think you're a jerk". It can really bring down team productivity to have a toxic coworker, especially if management isn't willing to fire them.
Signal is not an anonymous messenger. Its goal is to enable private messaging.
Problem is that Rails isn't new to me.

> Honestly, why take things like that personally? Why liken it to a ghetto?

Man, it's beyond irritating to see this kind "what's the big deal? just chill" type rhetoric used in this context. Particularly because it's a hard-fought (and ongoing) battle to stop this _same exact logic_ from being used to deflate complaints about what it's like for underrepresented minorities in the workplace.
The mouse genome is only 160 megabytes, and contains the instructions for building the brain as well as building everything else, so the "secret sauce" of how to make an intelligent brain should not be extremely large, once you figure out how to do it. :) A lot of the actual connections must be either random, or encoding things the mouse learnt while growing up.
There might be a study that supports working shorter hours but the truth is that if keep a mental image in your brain for longer, it will be easier to recall that mental image later. This is how Calculus was invented, keeping the image of the problem in the brain at all times; that is how good work gets done, and that is when inefficiencies are reduced.

Fiancees are great, I agree. And I don't think there is anything wrong with families.

You admit yourself that your company has some bad programs. Those programs are hemorrhaging money that comes from the public. That's really awful and everyone involved should be fired for wasting taxpayer money.

I dunno about the rest of this, I'm just super passionate and I'm willing to come along and tell some mid-level engineer at a big company that he sucks and his company sucks, because it's probably true. I could come to your company and observe long coffee breaks, people who put in three hours a day, and all that stuff, and you'd brush it off when I brought it up. It's cynicism because that's what is actually out there. People suck. You try and rationalize it but your company is going nowhere fast as soon as the government contracts and fat military cheques run out.

I'm in my 20s and and been incredibly hard working and suffered a lot in my life, I'm just very passionate and I'm willing to tell you that your company is really not good, because it's not.
You run it as if it's a country or a government.

> Our current government has a tremendous amount of debt.

That's a talking point the Republican always bring up even after the second election of Clinton and we had a surplus.

Even Bush Sr had to raise the taxes because of his war debt.

Bush Jr and Donald we're in debt with Trickle Down.

The republican party, to me, is the ones that are pushing for running like a company. Recent Democrat runs it as if it's a government. An example is Clinton forgiving a foreign country debts, raising 50 million in vaccine, I doubt any company would do that while managing a surplus and bombing the middle east for Bin Laden.

This is on top of knowing the key players that you've built relationship with while in politics.

You can't just go in as President and just boss those people around. All of them have some sort of agenda they want and you have to know them well enough to compromise and get them on board with a bill.

Clinton passed the bill of rights for healthcare. Bush close the donut loop hole and Obama got ACA. These aren't some running a company kind of move. Since ACA is in place Republican have failed to bring it down.

But what people keep on making it as if it's simple as running a company. Making it easier for CEO person with no politic experiences run and become president.

It's as easy as running a company.

Talking about share prices is pointless without referring to number of shares. Tesla wouldn't be worth 16 times more than Ford just because their share price was 16 times higher. Tesla's market cap being $11B higher than Ford is surprising but then Tesla has momentum that investors are factoring in to the potential future value of the company. Ford has cash-flow but is stagnant; Tesla announced in May that they doubled their Revenue from 1st quarter 2016. The challenge for traditional car companies is that their new competitor is acting and being treated by investors as a speculative stock.

Also, in your comparison of the financials you have called Tesla's after tax income for 2016 their revenue. And Fords capex for 2016 was just under 7B. From where did you source those figures?

Haha! On point. I can identify with that article. Man, there's this wonderful quote about this I wish I could find, about how women were somehow sold the idea that the working world, the land of heart attacks and ulcers, was where the real awesomeness in life was happening, and where they wanted to be.

There's this documentary that I just love on this topic. This lady decides she wants to see what the world of men is like, and goes undercover and lives as one for eighteen months. And at the end of it, she emerges with such a tangible sense of compassion for men and their problems. They have all these difficulties that they don't talk about!, she says. It's so sweet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip7kP_dd6LU

We're playing with powerful forces, here, what with women entering the workforce in unprecedented numbers, and encountering unprecedented success. Historical, cultural forces. Biological forces. Psychological forces. I think we're making the world a better place, but this tale that it's a simple struggle between good and evil, and women and men . . . the world is more complicated than that. We don't need to take out our frustrations on each other. We need all our combined strength and wisdom. We should proceed with empathy and understanding and compassion.

For what it's worth, I think you guys are awesome. Hugs from an internet stranger. :)

>so it's not like things can get worse

I admire your optimism, but this has yet to be an accurate statement across the entirety of human civilization.
Have people quit buying groceries at grocery stores at some point in the past few years and I haven't noticed? I don't see the analogy.
From my experience, Dubai Air has the best food I've ever had on an airplane, bar none. Korean Air and Asiana also have good food, as long as you choose the Korean meal. Their western meals are sometimes hit-or-miss.
Well, GS has done illegal things before. But yeah, I don't think they'd try to do something blatantly illegal like this.

This wouldn't even appear on HN's radar if it wasn't Tesla.
The "show quad tree" feature is really neat looking and educational for showing someone the Barnes-Hut algorithm. Is there a way to create lots of particles at once? Barnes-Hut isn't really needed until you hit thousands of particles, so can I create a galaxy of n particles quickly?
I've been in China off and on from 2003-2008, and I've also noticed the phenomenon this video describes whereby people do NOT help out strangers in need, but never really knew the legal why. I always just assumed it was a cultural aspect I was told (can't find the name of it) whereby if you are not part of a Chinese person's social network, then you are effectively irrelevant to them, which was the reason why you should never be offended when people don't wave or smile back at you.

But anyway, I'm not optimistic considering the legal/cultural reasons for the pedestrian issue and the "Broken Vase Scam" in the video will get applied to bigger social challenges.
It seems to be an intriguing and certainly controversial article ...
"In Millennial Guy, the highly-anticipated sequel to Bicentennial Man, a blogger living in a world where robots seek humanity seeks to become a robot, but spends his time arguing about it on the internet instead, ultimately never achieving his goal. Instead, he waits for his break as an internet "thought leader" while living with his disappointed parents, then he dies."
I think they have a Groupon effect where they get a lot more reduced-price samplings than actual subscriptions.
This is a protocol issue. The United Kingdom and a few States follow a specific programme which dramatically improves maternal outcomes. The US needs to do two things: capture the data and implement the protocols.
Well for example I know someone that was able to get an O-1 visa on the basis of being the expert on a piece of technology because he had for years been a major contributor to a business critical open source project. It's not enough to just point to github though, as your lawyer will tell you, you need prominent business people to vouch for your credentials. They are used to doing this though, if your company has the right connections.
Well, first off, you're wrong regarding my use of the M3's performance features. I did European delivery, and did 900+ miles of Autobahn driving in the car, most of which was spent cruising at 140 mph+, including three or four runs up to 165 mph+. Also, when I had the chance, I would take it to the mountains of North Georgia/Western North Carolina to push the car to my limits. Having both done multi-day performance driving schools with BMW's own driving instructors up in Spartanburg, SC, as well as having done hot laps with those same instructors on the Daytona road course, I know the car is capable of performing beyond my own limits, but I am capable of pushing it to about 9/10ths on a track and 8/10ths on a suitable mountain road.

So yeah, I used the performance features of the M3 on many occasions.

That being said, I live in Florida, and the car was, frankly, boring to drive on Florida roads. Driving fast in a straight line at speeds that won't result in my arrest aren't a stretch for the car, and driving the car at my limits makes me a threat to the safety of other people sharing the road with me when I find corners. There is a sweeping right hander on the Interstate off ramp near my house that I could take at 110 mph without the car, or me, breaking a sweat.

Moving on...

You might be right that renting a car once a month is a hassle for people. But I don't think most people go on 100+ mile drives every month (or at least average one trip like that each month).

And I always love how people talk about how much better it is for the environment it is to buy a used car rather than a new car, as if used cars just appear out of the ether. The people who buy my off-lease cars share in the carbon footprint of producing the car.

And even ignoring that, the lifetime carbon footprint of an EV, PHEV, or even just a non-plugin HEV is going to be lower than that of a ICE-only equivalent vehicle.
I think the defacto standard would be something like "Notifier for GitHub" adhering to the trademark rules. Less fun, though.
Really more farming than biotech (but basically the same thing). I want to build a franchise based on atomic gardening and finding profitable new mutants of plants, mushrooms, and micro organisms (flukes and flatworms) to the effect of synergy. There'll be papers and licencing and outreach, of course.
> While there is something to be said for screening out genetic diseases, etc

You mean "screening out" people who suffer from genetic diseases. Why not "screen out" people when they develop chronic conditions later in life, too? Or any other group the rest of society may deem unworthy, like Jews, gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, and communists?
Perhaps obvious in hindsight but in that situation I definitely would not leave the country and especially try to re-enter the country unless my paperwork was in perfect order (lawyer prepared it for you). One mistake like that can ruin your visa situation forever.
No. Before the ACA pregnant women were specifically excluded without a rider.
How can it both be absolute garbage and bring up interesting topics? Those seem kind of mutually exclusive.
Not if your first question is "why do so many pregnant mothers die during childbirth?" - GP's point is that it's a disheartening realization.

That being said, it's not necessarily true - after all, if X resources would be more effective mitigating cause of death A than cause of death B, then presumably you would want to (from a utilitarian calculus) direct them to A, irrespective of whether A or B causes more deaths.

Why traditional password managers are flawed
I'm not sure "corporate policy" is the right way to characterize it. This wasn't a policy adopted by HR or anything like that. An internal employee group took this upon themselves, and in the years before I did my internship it was completely voluntary. They changed that the summer I was there.

As for the word ghetto, that is what came to mind when I read the part in Maria's post about special awards for women in tech.

It would have been fine if I had gotten an email describing the program and inviting me to participate. Instead, I got an email from a stranger, completely unannounced, saying "Hi, I'm your intern buddy!"

It was the assumption that I needed help because I'm a woman that I found condescending. I'm not saying programs like this aren't good, or that nobody needs them, it was the blanket application to an entire group without consulting them first that I took issue with. The difference between a safe space and segregation is whether or not your participation is voluntary. Had it been offered as an invitation I might have even taken them up on it, but nobody bothered to ask first. It was just assumed that because I'm female, I needed help. I disagreed.

Nothing can be described as meritocratic because meritocracy is a myth.
Go to UCSF or Stanford. California follows the high risk protocol. Also just ask your doctor about this.
