The focus on individuals, of either gender, is short sighted. I've worked as an engineer in a male dominated environment, and a lawyer in gender balanced ones. When I think of what I'd want my daughter to do, I can't help but think she'd have an easier time maximizing her potential in the latter field, where she doesn't have to deal with the awkwardness of being the only woman on her team, or working only for men team leaders. Today, much of the pipeline in law is both gender balanced and gender blind. There are no programs to encourage girls to take the LSAT, no gnashing of teeth about not enough women graduating with JDs or applying to law firms. It's not perfect (only a third of new partners are women, versus half of new associates) but we're light years ahead of tech.

It wasn't always that way. Fifty years ago, only 5% of women were lawyers (long after they were legally permitted to join the bar). People rolled out the same tropes--the work was too detail oriented and analytical for women, who preferred to work with people and children. They wouldn't want to deal with the stress and long hours. Etc. That turned out to be bunk. Now, people who want to maintain the idea that women are predisposed to not going into tech have to resort to distinguishing what were archetypally "male" fields like law by redefining those fields to be women-friendly ones.

The legal profession fixed the problem of historic discrimination in the field by not being gender blind. Schools and law firms gnashed teeth about their gender ratios, like tech schools and companies are doing now. And while that may have been "unfair" to certain individuals at certain moments in time, it was the only way to fix society's earlier sins.

A skewed gender ratio that is the product of past discrimination is itself a form of discrimination. If you want to claim to have leveled the playing field, then you have to actually level it and see if it stays level on its own. In law and medicine, that turned out to be the case. I don't expect the situation will be different in tech.
Thank you for taking the time to explain. Let me try to word things a little better:

What is the percentage of US homes who are on an IPv6?

What is the percentage of websites on IPv6?

What are the number of web site hits that are IPv6 to IPv6? (in the US? in the world?)

The highest estimate I've ever seen for any of these is less than 20%, which - 20 years into IPv6, is in my opinion "not caught on". The mobile world when 3G arrived preferred carrier-grade-NAT to IPv6 (which was technically a better solution), which is in my opinion "not caught on".

Suffix randomization has been implemented, but is not universal in my experience; and it is essentially useless for privacy in one's home. It slightly blurs the distinction between my laptop and my son's iPad. And that's ALL it does.

Right now I enjoy getting an address from a pool of 16K addresses every time I reset my cable modem; And it is likely to transition soon to a carrier-grade NAT which would give me even more privacy.

It is likely that I should be taking crazy pills - I seem to remember the snowdens of yesteryear and facebook shadow profiles, which either I'm hallucinating or no one else seems to care about.

On the other hand, I have a startup idea to profit from the impending v6-complete-lack-of-privacy that I should probably start working on. If you can't beat them, profit off them.

They do the offering now because they have a bit of a name and the world is currently filled with suckers who think that getting in on an ICO is a worthwhile speculation. The greater fool theory at work.
Here's an article that has some links talking about this phenomenon a few years ago.

http://reason.com/blog/2015/09/11/victimhood-culture-in-amer...

TL;DR There are traditionally 2 kinds of culture - honor, and dignity. The west tends to be predominantly Dignity culture. Asia and Africa tend to be predominantly Honor cultures. This idea is that we are seeing a shift into a culture that combines both of these - the victim culture.
Filecoin at least isn't based in competition who can do "useless" computation the fastest, but computation only happens to verify data is actually being stored by those claiming they do so.
The commenter's point was that it comes bare-bones. There is very little installed on a stock Arch installation. Unlike a distro like Ubuntu, Mint, etc., which are some of the most common desktop distros and come with a large variety of packages, Arch's install file is shockingly small, and the base packages themselves are very limited.
It's pragmatic because adding proper tail calls in the JS engines is difficult and raises several issues (lost stack frames, memory guarantees, etc.) but we were able to survive 20+ years without having them in JS, so it's not like they are essential.

> Faster file sharing: Windows 10 Pro for Workstations includes a feature called SMB Direct, which supports the use of network adapters that have Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) capability. Network adapters that have RDMA can function at full speed with very low latency, while using very little CPU.

Interesting to see file copy speeds mentioned. "Drag-and-drop" file copy has a known bottleneck that other methods (robocopy, copy-item, etc) do not have, and I wonder if this improvement will improve all copy methods, or just "Drag-and-drop".

Also interested in the security considerations for having DMA (Direct memory access) to a remote PC for SMB. Presumably this would be for authenticated users/sessions. Yet SMB has been a recently-leveraged protocol for ransomware attacks.
Looks like it's already available through homebrew, if you use that.

> When he tried to explain the need for Filecoin to Dalton, I just didn't hear it. Dalton kept asking him over and over what the point was and he kept giving non-answers

His favorite response was "...and a whole bunch of other things".

On a more serious note, it's very early days for the filecoin and related group of projects that they intend to fund, so the answer to Dalton's question is : "we don't have the answers yet. There are a whole bunch of theoretical use cases and the most promising seems to be decentralized storage. The reason we are raising money through this ICO is simple : people are ready to invest dumb money and we are more than happy to take it. We have legitimacy because we are backed by the most well known VCs who are eager to 10X their money within 3 years and we have a whole bunch of protocol design/specs."

It's kind of self fulfilling : promise a grand vision, take hundreds of millions and hopefully deliver any working product sometime in the future.
Yeah i know, but IT is a subject that i love and i'm feeling frustrate when i can't understand articles
This. I've been trying to put together a small home lab xeon e3 system that can theoretically support nvme+gpu+infiniband. It's tough.

Typically you get something like 3 full length PCIe slotson a xeon e3 board (c236 chipset). BUT they can't all run full speed at 16x (16/16/16). You have to then choose between 16/8/8 and 16/16/0 due to the lack of PCI lanes.

I think that's a very small section of the tech world, though. I've never seen or heard about that kind of behaviour outside of SV startup scene. Admittedly I'm a dull corporate developer, working in decidedly untrendy technologies in London.
Timing. Do it before the bad PR and bubble talk leave no more "greater fools" and makes it harder to pull off an ICO.
Users are asking for features, not for yet more editions of Windows. Editions are merely a way to charge for those features and I don't think they are a good way to do that.

Editions create barriers. They make you work around missing features that would force you into buying a much more expensive edition, so you learn to live without those features or replace them with other operating systems and free software.

It is a tricky issue. I have a bunch of friends who were involved in these programs in college. I didn't quite get it until one of them pointed at the computer engineering and software engineering programs on campus. Of all the engineering fields, theirs had the most unbalanced ratio of men and women.

That's not to say I think it must be exactly 50/50, and I definitely agree merit should be the consideration in hiring. But if young girls go to a general "learn about engineering" event and see 90% men presenting, go over a number of years, and never see a woman in computer or software engineering present, they probably wouldn't be very interested in those programs.

And if they got to college and started in the program, they are one of (literally) about 2 women in the ~100 freshman, they do have additional challenges to face in the program. Numerous times I've seen women in engineering groups bring up a point, get it poo-poo'd, only for a man to think of it a few minutes later and advance the team on the project. Watch for it, it happens more than you'd think. They will likely also face some degree of awkward guys asking them for dates, really awkward social interactions with some members of their major members, etc.

There's a study (I can't find it right now) which looked at the composition of groups in engineering classes. IIRC, groups with 1/4 woman member had very low participation levels by the woman, but comparable levels with 2/4.

Will this address the absurd automatic updates/reboot "feature"? I've had the experience multiple times where a step away for a few minutes and come back to a blank desktop, even during the "active hours" period. This is especially infuriating when I do most of my work in a vbox slackware VM and win10 is just a host that I want to stay out of the way; instead I lose my entire current state. This seems like a major defect for either a "Pro" or "Pro for Workstations" version

Has anyone found a reliable way to disable automatic reboots for Windows 10 Pro? My registry mods have all eventually stopped working.

> So you would favour blocking all sites and services that do any logging?

I make an effort to block as many as I can without breaking the page I'm trying to visit, yes. Usually this means having umatrix block about half the requests from a site.

> If you think logging is the same as tracking.

Logging by an analytics company, yes. And I do block those; Google is the most common, but this one counts.

> Parties like pi-hole etc don't contribute anything

This is a separate topic, but: Usability counts.
Not completely thought out, but I believe parasitic storage might be a better approach to scaling out a censorship resistant distributed object store. Some kind of cryptocurrency could help fuel it as well.

A parasitic storage approach would leverage existing "free" tiers of services like google drive, onedrive, dropbox, yandex.disk, etc. One of the hard parts of scaling that would be creating the fake accounts to hold the data, so a cryptocurrency+contract could fuel the reward needed for people to create these by hand. You use the reward to buy storage space, so there's some incentive for the people creating them.

I'm less clear on how you would combat the various providers finding the fake accounts and deleting them along with the data. Would clearly need duplicate storage of objects to work around that, and some central reference table to map keys to the various copies, and provide the high level "api" for creating buckets, etc.

I am a little concerned with the 'may have been "unfair" to certain individuals' bit of your post. It takes a lot of effort to not react to such incidents- either non-violently or in the worst case violently.

This pent up frustration at being part of a pseudo meritocracy is reflected in unfortunate places - - "Oh why do you care about this appraisal <girl's name>, you can marry and settle rich" (unfortunately this actually happened to someone I know).

My point being - the people that might be victims of your 'may have been "unfair"' approach, end up as not-nice people who are proponents of the sexism that we are trying to end here.

> You might say they don't really care what girls feel.

What do you mean by this?

> these people think that girls have been conditioned, and the can be reeducated to like tech.

Boys and girls are conditioned by their toys and hobbies at a young age. Statistically, boys are encouraged to play with toys that develop their large motor and spatial skills while girls are encouraged to play with toys that develop their social and emotional skills. These "getting girls into coding" workshops are used to expose girls to toys and skills that they might have not had the chance to experience before. There is no "reeducating to like tech" going on. These events are purely voluntary and from my experience, the girls have a ton of fun.
How does one knows that the premise is bad when you're not even allowed to disciss it? Furthermore, how come the discussion itself is viewed as harmful? If you claim that the premise is wrong shouldn't it be very easy to prove so? What if the other person is open minded and actually willing to consider your arguments, as long as you're willing to do the same?
I don't recall ever reading Derrida as a fervent Marxist. Sartre's somewhat predates postmodernist canon. Marx would be a bit of a grandfather in deconstruction. Hard not to move forward without acknowledging his presence[1].

> They themselves described their philosophies as evolutions of Marxism.

Citation needed certainly in the case of Derrida.

With that said, to have a peek at J's posts. Every single message is prefaced with the rubbish connection, and by suggesting that there is some lineage to Marx is giving the individual more credit than he is due. Doubly so that it is clear he has never read a Postmodern text.

Also, as I have been citing Foucualt, it might be worth noting that his view of power contrasted against Marx's.

To suggest that the toolbox of Postmodern thought is all Marxism and Feminist is absolutely ridiculous.

[1] In terms of critiquing capitalist thought alone it would be almost mandatory to explore Marxist thought. It would also seem that Derrida wasn't quite the Marxist cited. http://www.salon.com/2013/04/28/grappling_with_specters_of_m...

I set the group policy to ask the user before installation and never had a problem. It still wants to reboot after you install the update, but since it only installs the update when you tell it to it's effectively manual control.
I seem to recall there's a way to do this with group policy editor. I'd expect this to be more supported/proper than via the registry. But I can't remember where in group policy the setting is found, and am purely speculating at its reliability.

I'm actually worried that one of the main things in favour of cryptocurrencies is that they can act as an effective currency for illegal activities, i.e. they'll stay profitable for as long as regulations struggle to keep up with them.
