I don't know what would convince you that at minimum, these chemicals should be taken out of food contact applications or heated up and volatilized in thermal printers, and then handed to a customer.

Just picking articles at random, I don't have time for a full literature review for Hacker News, but the evidence taken in totality is overwhelming:

1. BPA (and related chemicals) activate estrogen receptors, causal study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28407500 This has been repeatedly demonstrated.

2. Direct human effects, correlational study: Working in a factory with BPA makes you impotent: http://www.oxfordjournals.org/news/dep381.pdf

3. Direct human effects, correlational study:
BPA exposure by parents, especially mothers leads to reduced anogenital distance in children: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21987463

4. Direct human effects, correlational: BPA and other EDCs are associated with penile defects: http://www.acmt.net/_Library/PEHSU_Webinars/Is_Hypospadias_A...

5. Human ingestion routes, correlational: Blood BPA levels are highest occupationally among cashiers (thermal receipts), and people who eat a lot of canned vegetables (plastic can liners): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21205581

There are loads more where that came from. You've got a very direct mechanism of action, clear effects in animal models, and correlational studies showing people who are exposed to larger quantities show clear medical problems. You have clear, understandable routes of ingestion, and correlational data that shows that people who are exposed more to those routes of ingestion have more in their blood. I suppose you can complain that the human studies are correlational, but you can't legally perform a blinded study on this, because we know that BPA is harmful, and you won't get it past an IRB. Maybe you formed your opinion on this in the nineties or 2000s when only the hippies were trading out their nalgene bottles, but the science has come a long way, and the hippies were right. Phthalates are a very similar story.

Most people these days are completley blind to the possible consequences of sharing personal data with others.

It seems like most people used to be very careful with sharing personal information online, but in the last 15 years many people have clearly forgotten about common sense.

2000: It's the internet, it's dangerous to put your name there.
2017: I have to share a bunch of photos of myself(so people have something to edit), lists of all my connections(so people knows who to contact), my current location(so people knows where to find me) and I need to have 25 open communication channels. Oh, and it should be available to more or less everyone.

I'd agree with this! I'd go further and say in most languages avoid concurrency entirely if you can if it's not going to lead to measurable improvements. Concurrent code can be a minefield of problems and creates difficult to debug code so go with non-concurrent if it's all the same.

> NYC isn't on the list because finance dominates there

In 2014, New York City had 165,300 finance jobs (NAIC code 523) and 365,500 tech jobs (541), broadly defined [1].

To illustrate why this article's metric is silly, consider that in 2014 about 4.1 million people were employed in New York City [2][3]. Thus 4% of employees worked in finance and 9% in tech. Hoboken, New Jersey, meanwhile, had 34,054 people employed in 2014 [4] and, in 2015, about 7,300 employed in finance [5] (22% of total employment). I guess we should crown Hoboken, instead of New York City, as the nation's new financial capital.

I've coded in vhdl and verilog. Working at the gate level is definitely more functional in nature and has the same problem (it's not obvious intuitive how the code you write maps to gate logic). Hence, why novices introduces accidental latches and metastability. I've actually used clash for one non-trivial project, and there's something interesting there for sure.

This might differ based on the herd, though. My uncle's cattle are beef cattle, so not much in terms of friendly human interaction. Dairy cattle might have less fear of humans.

I'm also curious about this "cost of static typing" that is always brought up. What is the cost really? Typing and reading 5 extra characters per function argument?! It's not like every single line of your algorithm inner loop code will be littered with types, there you still keep it clean and skimmable with inferred types. You only make the interfaces type safe, this prevents function misuse, simplifies refactoring and makes the architecture graspable.

It's not a question of whether it "can" or not sometimes. Say there's a performance issue in your code. In my experience, I have a much easier time figuring out where the bottleneck is just by inspection with imperative code than with functional code (especially when concurrency is involved). Sometimes, transparency is more important than raw output.

What companies did you look at and what do you consider market rate? You might consider Silly Valley salaries to be market rate but they're not. In fact those rates are what the top 1% of coders make if they're lucky. I would expect Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, and other competitive technology companies to pay those rates but market rate is going to be 60-180k. There are tons and tons of jobs paying in that range from less cool tech companies like NCR, AT&T, Borland (Micro whatever), and IBM. There are also tons of other companies headquartered in Atlanta willing to pay those rates like Rubbermaid, CTX (trains), Coca Cola, and Bank of America. There are also a lot of companies that tend to pay below market rate for coders because of the cool factor of working for them like the TV and Film companies.

Interesting. I've mostly been programming clojure for the last couple years. But I've got one project I'd like to try to make that is very GUI centric.

I don't know what it is about GUI programming, but I pretty much hate it. It's a complete schlep for me... it seems to take so much energy and work for something that is tangential.

The place didn't fool scientists. Most scientists who were "fooled" had never even seen the place with their own eyes. According to the article, many of those who did see the place quickly changed their minds.

The scientists had fooled themselves, thinking they could know nature without even seeing it. Which was actually a common attitude back when it was rather expensive, not to mention dangerous, to travel long distances just to see some rocks. Of course this kind of excuse has rapidly lost its power over the course of the last century.

It depends how deep you want to go. I would say that 'functional' can mean different thing to different people, but usually I see it as methodical use of certain programming features over others.

1. Language supports functions as values, anonymous functions, has higher order functions, and ability for functions to access scope in closure. At this base level there are no disadvantages to prefer using these, because they allow some nice abstractions (as evidenced by many functional libs in js.)

2. using recursion over loops, can be a good fit for expressing some algorithms. Often requires some support for optimisation in language (i.e. tco, so that your stack doesn't explode. In my experience you'd use higher order functions like map, fold/reduce most of the time anyway, instead of dealing with loops/recursion directly.

3. pure functions. This is the first interesting trade-of in functional programming, how much should you use functions that only depend on its inputs to provide its output (and for the same input output would stay the same). There are clear advantages, you can test these well, understand them in isolation, refactor them easier, memoization is almost for free.

On the other hand, only using pure functions would limit the usefulness of the language (it is said that first version of haskell was only able to do a transformation from stdin to stdout, because they had just pure functions) Languages that are big on being 'pure' usually allow you to make impure functions, but then track their usage in the type-system. This was one of those things, that I often think is more trouble than is worth.

4. immutable data-structures, which come in handy when you want to create pure functions that would rather return a copy with modifications, than modify in-place (because that might have unintended consequences elsewhere) It takes some time to get used to these, but their performance is on par with regular datastructures nowdays.

5. lazyness, where you compute only when necessary. Can make certain programs more efficient and easier to comprehend, others harder, i.m.o

6. no global state.

7. comprehensive type system is sometimes viewed as necessary for real functional language (how else would you check you don't do side-effects in wrong places)

For me, 1., 3., 4. and 6. are those I consider important and with little drawbacks to try to use them 80-90% of time.
Maybe, but what is the definition of intelligence? And even if there is a usable definition is it something that warrants being optimized?

Space-X is, at long last, getting their launch rate up. 9 Falcon-9 launches so far this year. For a while, they had commercial customers canceling because they were way behind on their launch schedule. It's quantity of successful launches that makes money in that business.

Not much is happening at the Brownsville TX site, where Space-X still hasn't done much more than pile up dirt and wait for it to settle. They're building on beach sand. They really need that site so they can have more pad time.
Bitfinex will let you do that, among other more advanced trading tools.

That says nothing except the sad state of the other native apps you use in your workflow.

The truth is that yes, indeed, I can find a lot of native apps that are just about as "good" as slacks native Mac (and iOS - it's really bad too) app, and I can also find a lot that are a lot worse. But why compare to them at all? We should be measuring how good an app is by comparing it to, in this case, the best of the best native apps on the particular platform, or across all platforms, if so desired.

Do I need to repeat?

I flagged it because such stories are dime in a dozen and this one brings zero new information¹, solves nothing² and mainly just perpetuates hostility³.

1. See the "off-topic" paragraph quoted above why it's relevant. And, BTW, this rule makes sense - when it comes to politics, usually both sides have already heard all arguments and if they still remain in disagreement, repetition is unlikely to bring anything but flamewar.

2. See paragraph above.

3. Which in itself might be a good reason, although I'm admittedly stretching it here because I selfishly refuse to take responsibility for other people's emotions and if I found this story interesting, I would have probably upvoted it. I upvoted that one for example https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14692038 because I found TFA informative and there is nothing you can do about it.

> Because you dislike the narrative it establishes?

Absolutely, it's harmful because words like "hostile", "sexism", "harassment", etc suggest malicious intent which usually just isn't there. It antagonizes men who have no intention of harming women and scares women in situations when no harm was actually meant. It deprives women of ability to effectively complain by making them question whether it makes sense to bring it up with the offender at all. And even when they decide to talk about it, it pre-trains them to paint it as oppression which predictably gets reactions ranging from "WTF" to "we don't give a fuck, your paranoia is your problem".

Hmm, the article states the ten years old Q6600 won't cut it, but

"Soldiering on with its undying attitude, the 2500K consistently out-edged the i3-6100 and in titles such as Overwatch and Total War: Warhammer, the Sandy Bridge quad-core stayed several steps ahead. Considering how heavily the 2500K can be overclocked, those who invested in this processor six years [ago] are probably still grinning today."
I think optimizations get ported between 2.12 and 2.13 (remember 2.13 is pre-release).

Considering that this was apparently one person doing investigative research, and a very small fraction of each code base (freebsd apparently has about 9 million LOC, openbsd 2.9 million), I do not think it is reasonable to state that freeBSD "only had 20% more bugs", but rather only that the investigator found 20% more bugs in it in his research. He probably examined a similar number of LOC of each OS and spent a similar amount of time on each OS if I had to make a guess -- the slides do not say however.

If he had spent three times more time on freebsd than on openbsd I would agree with you.
