True, but drill presses are actually quite dangerous. If they spin moderately fast (a few hundred rpm) and you drill into a steel object that is a few kilos and the drill grabs the piece it can throw the workpiece with lots of force if it isn't tied down well enough, and it takes a lot of tying down before it is 'well enough'.

Then there's the chance that the drill bit will shatter and bits come flying off at high speed. This can happen with a hand held power drill as well.

As a long time user of MySQL, I've switched to PostgreSQL for my most recent startup precisely because the PostgreSQL team continue to innovate in a sensible way.

One of the core requirements is a stable, fast and reliable initial import of existing data from 3rd party services, and because of throttling concerns that led us to a batched, retryable solution - and a requirement for simple, fast job control.

We've built this around a parallelised solution using the FOR UPDATE/SKIP LOCKED feature from PostgreSQL 9.5 onwards.

It's not bleeding edge, but for us it was a great example of how the pg team pick up the useful features from e.g. Oracle, and incorporate them into the product in a solid way, without all the enterprisey marketing crap that Oracle make you swallow before you can understand the actual feature-set.

I would not take that chance. 400 V to 600 V is the real danger zone in electricity, high enough to do serious damage in a short time, low enough not to arc until it is much too late. Added to that that you're going to be sweaty and that soil conditions might give you good conductance that's an easy way to die.
I never went to school or university to learn obsolete or unnecessary things.

Math, starting from a certain point, is useless for most people, still it is required to be learnt. Math might be a good tool to measure how good a person can think abstractly, but if it's used for that, then be honest and say so.

I wonder what would change in society if we forced all children to learn an instrument as intensive as we force them to learn math.
It could very well be the case that the higher proportion of men in engineering positions is mostly because of discrimination, while the increase in the proportion of men among finalists in the Code Jam competition isn't. (Not claiming that is the case, just highlighting the possibility.)

How? Assume for the sake of argument that discrimination is the only factor influencing the gender distribution among CS professionals. From kindergarten onwards the numbers are slowly winnowed down to 80% men and 20% women.

But now this 80/20 population enters a highly selective but objective contest and comes out with 349/1 (assuming there have always been 25 finalists in the 14 years of the competition and there was only this one woman I can't see in the photo proof). Surely this means that men are just better at programming?

But in fact men are just better at being outliers. The effect is not very strong at small deviations (i.e. the difference between an average person and an average programmer), but can absolutely become significant when you only look at the extreme ends of the distribution. (I have written a comment about that here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14997524) When you only look at the 25 top performers, that is bound to influence the result.

Again, I don't think things are nearly so black-and-white, but pointing at one extreme case of men performing better wouldn't be enough to completely validate Damore's memo, if anyone were so stupid to make that argument.
Game programmers are generally quite well regarded in 'physical computing' disciplines, because there's so many moving parts and edge cases to take care of - just like hardware.

I don't think emotional and psychological healing can be dismissed as placebo in physiological healing.

People think there's a great divide between mind and body but if you look at common psychological problems, they very much have a physiological representation.

With anxiety, you're heart rate and blood pressure are effected. You get tension headaches. It can trigger IBS. Hormonal changes in cortisol and adrenaline are present.

Depression drains energy and lowers stress tolerance. Stress has a similar effect as anxiety. It also has very real hormonal changes too. These can have a big impact on physiological state.

Ever been angry and then got a horrible headache? That's psychological state having a very real physiological effect!

This is a bit of a mischaracterization of secure hashing.

You can not uniquely reconstruct a document from a hash value. Indeed, for a typical secure hash function, a given hash value maps to an infinite set of inputs. But because secure hashes are one-way functions, finding any of those inputs for a given output requires brute force. This is why the bidding example works - it's so hard to find any input that hashes to a value that even having one of them is reasonable proof that it was the source document.

*Consider a secure 1024-bit hash function. How many 1025-bit inputs map, on average, to each hash value?

Credit rating are ironically based on taking up debt to show that you can deal with debt.

There are other ways to think about credit worthiness. As an example your checking and savings account can be used to show how you actually do each month, you can look at social connections to see who my friends are and if you have something like Google Wallet or Square Cash or Venmo you can also look at how good people are at paying each other back.

So plenty of things to look at that aren't being recorded right now.

Of course it's crazy.

High-functioning, probably a model citizen who helps the elderly across the street, but still batshit insane on the level where push comes to shove.

> The whole concept of alienation found its first expression in Western thought in the Old Testament concept of idolatry. The essence of what the prophets call "idolatry" is not that man worships many gods instead of only one. It is that the idols are the work of man's own hands -- they are things, and man bows down and worships things; worships that which he has created himself. In doing so he transforms himself into a thing. He transfers to the things of his creation the attributes of his own life, and instead of experiencing himself as the creating person, he is in touch with himself only by the worship of the idol. He has become estranged from his own life forces, from the wealth of his own potentialities, and is in touch with himself only in the indirect way of submission to life frozen in the idols. The deadness and emptiness of the idol is expressed in the Old Testament: "Eyes they have and they do not see, ears they have and they do not hear," etc. The more man transfers his own powers to the idols, the poorer he himself becomes, and the more dependent on the idols, so that they permit him to redeem a small part of what was originally his. The idols can be a godlike figure, the state, the church, a person, possessions. Idolatry changes its objects; it is by no means to be found only in those forms in which the idol has a so-called religious meaning. Idolatry is always the worship of something into which man has put his own creative powers, and to which he now submits, instead of experiencing himself in his creative act.

Bitcoins are not valuable because it requires extreme amounts of electricity to sustain each transaction. Most people are unaware of that detail.

at the time of Malmo's piece, he calculated that a single
bitcoin transaction requires as much electricity as the
daily consumption of 1.6 American households, and that
number has increased since then. "Adopting Bitcoin as a
major currency anytime in the next few decades," he wrote,
"would just exacerbate anthropogenic climate change by
needlessly increasing electricity consumption until it's
too late."

Other distributed ledger networks have designs which offer the same service to users, and in many cases are vastly more efficient in terms of electrical usage and actual speed of transactions.

I don't think there's really approval for protests, but "The majority of protests in China concern local grievances, such as the corruption of county- or township-level government or Communist Party officials, exploitation by employers, excessive taxation, and so on. Protests targeting specific, local grievances, and where citizens propose actionable remedies, are more likely to succeed than alternative forms of protests."

> Free speech isn't just a paragraph in the American Constitution that appeared there out of nowhere. It's a larger cultural norm that allows you to share your ideas and, much more importantly, allows you to hear other people's ideas without censorship.

Right.

> Whether censorship comes from the government, university, or some megacorp is completely irrelevant to whether it is an infringement on free speech.

Wrong, unless you mean a university or corporation literally physically censoring you from communicating something. See sib response by dragonwriter. If a university disinvites a speaker or a corporation stops hosting someone customer's website, nobody's right to free speech was infringed upon. Sure, you may accuse them of acting against the spirit of the value of free speech, but that's their prerogative and they are in fact simultaneously exercising their own right to free speech by choosing not to host/amplify another's speech they find repugnant.

Also have a small garden with lots of fruit. Plenty to go around so I don't mind other people picking as well. Though we have safety concerns - people climbing trees and so on. We like to be in hearing distance in case something happens, also we have some ladders and other tools harvesters can use and point out good spots.

Anyway my point is - just let the owner know. Most will welcome you and even assist. And make sure you are safe - no-one wants to come home and find a badly hurt stranger in his backyard. Also take care to not damage the plants.

The article generally leaves me with mixed feelings. Less about the stealing. More about common sense - there are many places where I just wouldn't pick fruits - like along polluted roads, heck in public parks there is even risk there are feces on the fruit. In the countryside there are snakes living in bushes making unpleasant encounters when unprepared. I see how the author paints it as romantic, but I feel she is more painting herself as "rebel" or "original" than actually giving advise.
Upvoting this, but except the last paragraph.
Incidentally, I saw yesterday a document - part of a thesis (the printer named and spit these pages afterwards).

> If only I could make the same counterargument when my clients complain about downtime. :)

If you can't make that argument, then you indeed have a problem. Downtimes happen, reducing them gets expensive fast. 95% is fairly simple, 99.999 is extremely hard - it requires redundancy on each and every level. Every time a client demands this, I reframe their request in terms of required engineering effort. Few, if any, actually care about the 9 behind the decimal point after that.

The best clients had downtimes already integrated into their operating plans: What happens if we go down, partially or fully, what do we do, how do we communicate and - most importantly, how do we get back up as fast as possible again.
TBH I do not think there is any "permanent relationship" in any organization in China. They can shut down your business without reason, or giving you some unreasonable reason.
