This happens just as flagrantly in other branches of the healthcare system as well, from fraudulent diagnoses in personal injury and accident situations to routine overbilling, to recission.

The author just quotes an old phrase without knowing the origin or meaning of the verb. It is/was the opposite of wane.

The OED and Shorter Oxford definitions explain the relevant sense of the verb: To start talking moderately, then gradually increase in potency or intensity. Quoting the OED's typically long entry: "Originally a more frequent synonym of GROW v. , which has now superseded it in general colloquial use, exc. with reference to the moon [...] confined to literary use, and have, in varying degrees, a somewhat archaic flavour; [...] The verb is said still to be current in certain dialects"

While I have both of those dictionaries, the Shorter Oxford is the one I use and recommend.

I noticed I end up with a pretty high hit-rate; maybe 1/2 of calls come in already tagged. Maybe I'm just lucky the volume is low enough to answer the calls; if they happened more often it wouldn't be practical.
Economically, SpaceX is about 3% cheaper than Arianespace.

That's not a 50% or 100% improvement.

Maybe they'll get that improvement once they run recycled rockets all the time, but not before that.
Somehow I managed to land my first programming job in the most stereotypical means possible.

I had connected with this young startup through my budding network. I was young, they were young, and we were both involved in TeensInTech (formerly a community of teens interested in startups). I had done a couple rounds of UI/UX feedback for them, that they had requested via TinT. The company made a password & bookmark manager (not one of the ones that is available today. They want out of business).

One day they launched a major website overhaul. Excitedly, I went to their website to play around with it. Purely by chance, I fat fingered my password as I was entering it in. The login failed, obviously, but I was surprised to see that the password input on the failed login page was now filled with a mysterious looking hash. My assumption was that was my hashed password.

This spurred me to open my dev tools and look at the network requests to figure out what was going on. It turned out that their new website was powered by a new API which hadn't really been hardened at all. Within about an hour I was able to find an endpoint that allowed me to enumerate all of the users on their site, and another endpoint that returned a user's stored authentication details (hashed passwords, full usernames & URLs). I wrote a few lines of javascript that looped through all of the users, and fearfully received a dump of their entire credentials table. Obviously that is bad bad bad.

I sent them an email explaining the issue. Their website was promptly taken offline, hardened, and then I received a job offer.

tl;dr; I hacked my first employer's website, and they offered me a job for it.

>If there's a zero tolerance policy against drugs there should be a zero tolerance policy against people providing bogus care for drug addicts.

Unlike the bank robbery case, it gets difficult to tell the difference between incompetence and intentionally crappy care. Nobody accidentally robs a bank because they were poorly trained.

This makes it harder to have a government policy of charging everyone with a felony that provided poor care.
It could be a fork though?

With normal Bitcoin an attempt to do this would be massacred by the collective hashing power.

It's amusing that both this and "SVG can do that?"[1] are on the front page right now. Is it better to draw using HTML/CSS or SVG? I guess the answer is complicated.

So let's recap here. We should use cryptocurrencies - which have been rising ridiculously fast, and invest in a company that will use that money to change into dollars (who have inflation) and invest them in things that have a tendency to rise with roughly a little bit over the level of inflation. Some say with GDP growth.

So however fast/slow that value of that company rises, it's going to be offset against the rise of ETH which has to rise for these investments to succeed, and it has to rise by a lot for these investments to succeed.

So either this investment fails - and you lose money for obvious reasons. Or it succeeds and you lose money because the rise in ETH means you don't get your ETH back.

Also this is an REIT, and this is how they've been doing:

> Ok, no one owes anyone a debate, unless... I'd like...

This is still just about what you'd like to happen. The rest of that argument is circular.

> Please don't do this. What he claimed was that women have less inclination...

Damore specifically mentions "abilities" although others have debated his exact intention in that line. I don't see value in reopening that.

Regardless, what you're missing is that interest, ability and environment are far from mutually exclusive traits. See my other comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15026234

> Why? All he did was put forth evidence and suggest that 50/50 might not be ideal...

Because Damore went as far as policy changes. To make an HR policy you need objectives, or at least direction... to know whether you should be aiming for a 49:51 gender ratio or a 10:90 gender ratio. If there's no proposed effect size how does Google's HR team know if they're heading in the right direction?

Some people may not want employers like Google to get into 'social engineering' as Damore puts it, but the reality is that there's a mountain of evidence that hiring bias has a large effect, so the idea that a company like Google wouldn't try to measure and optimise in that area is clearly not going to fly.
They were entered into evidence for a court case. Court documents are generally public record. That's how these messages went from private to public.
> it's hard to believe such a seemingly harmless claim (women aren't as well represented in tech because they're not as interested in it) has created such outrage

His claim is much stronger: he claims that women _working at Google as engineers_ are less interested in tech than their male colleagues. This debate is about stopping internal diversity programs within Google, not about women in general in tech.
>I think its because an internet connection has to be initiated by you at which point you give your consent to be charged for it.

This isn't true. You still get charged for random stuff scanning you over the Internet (unless you are behind NAT); or even worse, being on the receiving end of a DoS.
> a widely shared memo.

He didn't widely share his memo. Someone else inside Google leaked it to Gizmodo, which widely misrepresented it and started this shitstorm.

GiveCampus (YC S15) needs engineers in DC/SF to improve school fundraising
We are GiveCampus, and we build fundraising software for educational institutions. Our goal is to build innovative software so schools can raise money, and make it cheaper and more accessible for everyone. 25 of the top 50 colleges in the US already use GiveCampus, and we are growing faster than we can currently build!

Our engineering team is currently still small, and we're looking to add to the team to keep up with our continued growth. We are headquartered in DC, but are also looking for a strong technical lead to start our engineering team in SF.

Our ideal candidate:

- working professionally for 2+ years. Not currently hiring fresh bootcamp grads, and not interested in recruiters at the moment.

Front-End

- great front end chops, but can still manage some of the backend functionality as well.

- eye for clean design (though not necessarily need to be a designer), and be able to implement and iterate quickly.

Full-Stack

- can do css down to database queries, and be comfortable with everything in between.

- enjoy owning a feature or product, from idea to deployment, and support/iterating in the hands of users.

Our stack is Ruby on Rails, with mostly vanilla JS on the front end, and we're moving toward React where appropriate.

Michael Seibel, CEO of YC, expects us to be a household name in the next few years: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13896296. We were also covered by the Washington Post last year (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/04/1...), and have more than quadrupled the number of schools using our software since it was published.

Shoot us a message at careers@givecampus.com with your github and a little about why you're interested in GiveCampus!
Can you give a hint of what it does differently than the current "report spam"/"suspected spam caller" feature of Android?
In my own time, I built a data-logger PoC that would help us fault-find some issues we were having with a generator (in an aircraft). After the PoC, I did it as an official project (designed the hardware, wrote the embedded software, and wrote some interface software that ran on a PC in c++).

That (and a few other factors) got me a role at Headquarters, on a networking team. But I kept writing tools in software and ended up getting snaffled for a web-development team. And have been doing web-applications ever since.

I generally disagree that the university network is unimportant.

"85% of All Jobs are Filled Via Networking"[1]; the network in most cases (certainly mine) will consist of people they met at or through university.

In this case, I would argue that the "through" university section is highly important. If you go to uni, land a couple of internships at large companies or go on exchanges you probably have a very large network of people you otherwise wouldn't have.

I do, however, agree that it takes effort (on both sides) to maintain the friendships and connections made at university.

Los Angeles Approves Plan to Pay Homeowners to House the Homeless
Ok, but to me it is as plain as day that there is a double standard here and taking the debate on to that kinda territory is the only way to convince the other side about what they are doing... i.e. shutting down people who don't share their belief (you should believe ...). Once upon a time it was you should believe in god. If it is ok to persecute (or at least censor) people who don't believe in various forms of equality then it is ok to do the same to those who don't believe in a god.

Certainly the fact that some people believe in supernatural things (ridiculous, right?) but are allowed to state these beliefs despite the fact that on the face of it they are far more extraordinary than the extremely plausible some people are better than others in someway due to the differences in their genetics...

The answer is of course that the prevailing pc mainstream does not feel threatened by these daft belief systems (beyond fighting creationism in schools).

Anyway, you may be right that it is currently irreconcileable.

Absolutely, whether the logging was legal or not, loss of habitat is a very sad thing. Soon, many iconic animals -- the large mammals of Africa, gorillas, tigers and so forth -- will live only in zoos or special parks, but it isn't just those animals we see everyday on television that will no longer survive in the wild. Entire ecosystems are being lost with everything from the individual species of nematodes that survive on only one species of beetle that survives in only one habitat.

Show HN: Cook – An Extensible, Dynamic, Fast and Cross-Platform Build System
I've done quite extensive XSLT development and like it for particular tasks, but I think XSLT's weak points are

1. It's Turing-complete, which means you can just use any other language for XML manipulation as well such as JavaScript (has DOM language bindings) or Prolog (rule/pattern based like XSLT) or maybe LISP (like DSSSL was). The benefit is that using a mainstream language gives you better mindshare and infrastructure such as APIs for DB access, IDE support for testing, etc. which I found inevitably necessary in every large XSLT project

2. XSLT 2 and 3 only has a single implementation (Saxon) by the same author as the XSLT spec itself - not my idea of a standard (and, in fact, not meeting W3C's criteria of at least two interoperable implementations).

XSLT works well if you need lots of literal XML content to be produced to the output, but will get verbose, degenerative, and awkward (priority rules) for highly dynamic content.

Google android phones appear to be crowdsourcing countermeasures against spam calls. For instance, I have a Google nexus phone.

Not an answer to your question, but just wanted to say I'm in a similar boat as you.
I was working for a big tech company doing what I call a "non-core programming" - analysis role. I was neither a systems programmer nor a math wizard. I knew enough CS background to understand the problem domain very well, and enough Python/stats/pandas/bash fu to arrive at useful answers. But, I didn't see a career in it. I'm now a sysadmin for a research centre and found my lost love for building and maintaining clusters. I don't know if I'd become as smart as some of the people I read about & admire on HN, but I stopped worrying too much and started focussing on the little things.
I'm now designing a better version of our research cluster, learning a load of things along the way.
Hopefully, once I'm confident enough in myself, I will work on my ideas rigorously and build useful products.

TLDR; I stopped worrying too much and trying to keep things simple, and learn. Don't quite know if my words will be useful to you.
