So then Ben might say something like: "I co-founded Docker. I was hired 2 years after it was founded." And that wound give you pause? It seems to me we're divorcing the word "founder" from the concept it derives from, which is the act of founding. I suspect that, should this become common practice, it will quickly devalue the title of co-founder. The only reason it has the allure that it does is because, in most people's minds, it's not a title like any other since. For most people, the only way to be a founder is to found.

All this being said, I do agree that this wasn't the article's mistake. I suspect if you asked the author if he's under the impression that Ben was present when Docker was founded though he'd say yes, so in some sense he's been misled. That's what most people take from the term founder I believe.

I wouldn't call outcomes similar in terms of disease survival rates, British medical journals have spent quite a few words on this very topic. For example, cancer survival rates are 50% higher in the US than NHS, as reported in Lancet. That is worse than much of Europe. You see similar deltas for cardiovascular disease treatment outcomes.

Metrics like average lifespan are not that correlated with survival rates from medical diseases. Switzerland or France are where you want to be in Europe if the goal is to survive serious medical conditions.

30 Tips to Ensure Your Data Science Team Succeeds
Anyone here writing Rust on Windows and using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) in your workflow?

I've found using WSL's "bash -c" from my Rust project's working directory in Windows to be a rather elegant way to compile and run code for a Linux target.

Theoretically it should be possible to remote debug Linux binaries in WSL from an editor in Windows, but I haven't had time to explore this yet. Both GDB and LLDB have remote debugging functionality.

How do you get access to the data used in such experiments?
Someone had put a map together of the OpenLTE / catchers they found but I can't find it. In my particular case, I had WiFi off the entire time and received certificate validation failure notices four times at different locations while at DEFCON. Given I was only connecting with LTE, there could only be one explanation for those certificate warnings. I was being redirected to an OpenLTE or other cellular base station and someone was running a MitM proxy or solution like SSLSplit on the connection.

Unfortunately when it comes to calling it "incredibly uncommon", we really don't have any widely deployed solutions to identify rogue cellular base stations so it's very difficult to say how often it happens IRL although the only times I've ever seen it happen have been the last two years at DEF CON.
Not really, just don't like backhanded character assassination.

Also, not all the people protesting were chanting "Jews will not replace us". Oddly, some of the white nationalists that helped organize the protest were Jewish. And I also personally know many conservative people in favor of the statues that aren't nazis either (and at least for some, it's because they personally are Jewish, so it would make no sense).

Calling all conservatives white nationalists is the equivalent of calling all BLM protesters black nationalists, or all counter protesters antifa. It's just easy namecalling and almost always ends up just being very heavily cherrypicked images and such used to construct a narrative.
I find I have to combine it with a fat/protein like a serving of peanuts to make it not spike me hard. It may not have a high glycemic index, but it is already in liquid form and is thus available for digestion.
I use gmail app on mobile (and Nine for talking to work Exchange server). I don't use Priority inbox feature. I use incoming filters to apply labels. I try to process each message once - and am happy to archive anything non-actionable.

For mail I don't wish to receive or keep, I'll take the time to stop it being sent to me, rather than set up a filter/blocker at my end. For mail I only want to be able to search for later I'll filter to auto-archive on receipt.

I try to avoid using my inbox as a todo list - having a separate task tracker makes this possible (different tools vary the ease of this, of course).

I suspect most people who struggle with email don't have a task tracker (or if they do, they aren't using that properly either) but that's based on a relatively small set of anecdata.

When you say it takes a million clicks and 10 seconds to filter email - do you mean to create a new filter on an arbitrary email? How often are you creating new filters?

The problem seems to me that in the United States, the most common metric for success is money. Within most fields, if someone has a nice house, takes great vacations with the family, drives a nice car, those around them will say: Wow, { person.name } has really done well for themselves!

The example I always use is imagine two foot doctors (podiatrists). One has all those things above, the other doesn't (or at least not to the same extent). The reason the first has all those nice things is because this doctor performs the job well and makes extra money working with big pharma and big consumer-screwing insurance companies. The second doctor, while he/she also does a great job, decides not to work with big pharma or cut deals with insurance companies that screw his/her patients because that's the right thing to do.

Most people these doctors come into contact with, will not know (or even care to listen to [ever brought up server config during a family reunion?]) what goes into podiatry and what makes a good podiatrist actually good. They will perceive wealth and judge based on that for the most part. Can you really blame the doctor? They aren't being rewarded for doing the right thing, they are being penalized.

The travesty to me is that the doctors really are just being given peanuts compared to what big pharma and insurance are making with the rigged system.
That statistic does not sound accurate.
You don't need to identify them, you need to rule out the unsafe possibility's and can reject anything that's at all risky without significant downside. However, these kind of vary narrow tests are actually fairly easy for ML.

>The core difference between humans and animals is that humans can reason; we possess cogitative powers.

I agree that human language makes it possible for human beings to do all sorts of cognitive things that animals can't.

That said, you are making the term "reason" have a single meaning, whereas there are actually many types of cognitive activity, some of which animals can do, and some of which they can't. You really need to be more specific about the different types of reasoning, and each different type of reasoning should get a distinctive label.
no but it can help. generally yellow cap psilocybes have one lookalike you will run into and the way you dofferentiate the two is the color of spores so a picture wouldn't quite cut it. But the app could still offer that information even if it couldnt accurately decipher the two. The lookalike isn't poisonous anyway.

It's just eugenics propaganda, although you can make the case for that interpretation to be unintended.

Good comedians never let facts or good taste get in the way of good jokes, and Idiocracy has some interesting observations, but the framing device is repugnant.
There was a sign that said "NO MUSHROOM PICKING: VIOLATORS SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL CITATION", and the rules for the park say "Wildlife, plants and all park buildings, signs and tables and other structures are protected; removal or damage of any kind is prohibited." - http://parks.state.wa.us/179/Rules-Regulations

Nor does the argument "There’s no injured party involved in any of this" hold water. There are many illegal things where there is no direct injury to a person.

> Why does it matter so much for everybody, whether the preference is nature or nurture?

Because you cannot change nature, while nurture can be changed. If there are huge differences caused by nature, then it would be stupid to invest efforts to remove this differences by changing society. If there are huge differences caused by nurture, then changes to society can change nutrure and reduce differences.

> I like garlic, and hate cauliflower, and my mother's preferences are exactly opposite. It is quite obviously a nurture thing. Does it mean, ipso facto, that I should change?

No, it does not. Any improvement is a change, but not every change is an improvement. Changes is not the terminal goal but instrumental one. If there are reasons to make everyone to like garlic and to hate cauliflower, then we should consider to change nurture to change individual preferences. If there are no reasons than there are nothing to consider.

If your preferences lead to economic inequality, if this preferences make hard to you to find job you like, than you should change your preferences, or at least shouldn't allow them to propagate to your descendants.

> There is nothing wrong with having preferences determined by nurture!

I cannot agree more.
Honestly if you have three months of work not in version control and not backed up and you're willing to click a button labeled "discard" anywhere near your files without taking any precautions then you have only yourself to blame.

I must admit I am a regular reader of this site and I listen to his podcasts also. I have always enjoyed it so I don't get why people here on HN are trying to bash him for having affiliate links even though he is being completely transparent about it.

Last time I checked good equipment to do podcasts and also hosting a site does have costs. Whats wrong with affiliate links if it helps support your effort.
It's complicated. I wrote a paragraph or so about it and deleted it, thinking the reasons were either obvious or too specific to their situations. Over five years, I guess they've lost what network they have from when they lived here - I definitely hear and see them less and less, and for the last few years it's really just been about seeing if I have any leads for them :|

I don't think they are being dinged explicitly for their location, but they aren't getting the attention that I do. There are reasons enough for that, that don't involve prejudiced recruiters, though I do think they are being judged as second tier due to their current employment, and their employers location. Their employers are definitely down market. Moreover, their skillset has certainly atrophied over they left. So much so that I can no longer send jobs their way - there isn't a fit. Things are starting to look a little Willie Loman-esque.

Is all of this because they moved out of the valley? They would probably have similar struggles here, but they would also have recruiters banging down their door.
You are moving symbols based on the action of other symbols.

These symbols are artifacts/files. Elementary recursive Build-Scripts can be Turing complete even if the overall language isn't.

I completely agree with the statement 'not all conservatives are Nazis.' Just the people who show up at white nationalist rallies and decide to go with the mob. Why can't conservationism be about cutting taxes again? The repubs have a serious image problem turning a blind eye to this insane fringe and if they want to fix it they need to stomp it out and focus on economics or something less divisive.
So what?

Preventing graffiti at a state or national park doesn't make us safe either. We still prosecute those who graffiti.

Poaching rabbits doesn't make us safer. It's also illegal.
Unfortunately it is. Trivially google-able to find Lancet Oncology papers comparing cancer survival rates across Europe. UK looked quite poor comparatively.

The US has the best cancer survival rates in the world by a fair margin, though It is closer in women than men. (Edit: misremembered which European countries had relatively high survival rates)
Yeah, I imagine e-bikers have fewer incentives to "cheat" traffic rules, it costs them less to obey.

I wouldn't be surprised if that overshadows any danger from introducing different travel patterns compared to regular bikes.
You mean k-tv wasn't culture enough for you?

Excellent point. The labeling is sure to be flawed and studies using it as a data source will treat it as absolute truth/substitution for thought.
Framing it as linear/just a spectrum leads to the "oppression Olympics" of people thinking that having white privilege means their, say, poor or abusive upbringing "doesn't count", like the originator of this subthread. However, this is wrong, because having privileges is multidimensional, there's so many axes upon which one can have (varying levels of!) privilege or disadvantage.

There's a lot of nuance that often gets lost or forgotten in people's knee-jerk reactions to being told/reminded of their privileges: often one understandably thinks about all the ways in which one still had to struggle, rather than recognising that there were ways in which one didn't.

I had a Jetson e-bike and it was great. What I found was that it was much more of a replacement for short haul car trips than it was for long haul bike trips. Also, as a rider and a driver, I find e-bikes are fast enough to not be too irritating in regular traffic.

The more popular they become the safer they will become to ride in traffic. They just need to get cheaper and rangier.
I know it is trendy to "accept" fatness which I'd argue does more harm to fat people than fat people hate but I digress.

No, I never said ADA is about pity. However, my opinion is that the ADA was not for accepting people as they are. Just pay the extra money and fly first class if you're big and tall.

It is funny how everyone hates all this bureaucratic red tape until the red tape is good for them.

There is no right answer. We as a society have to decide if we are willing to foot the bill. Things will change as more people are getting taller and fatter though.

I agree that airlines should serve atypical sizes but I hesitate to require airlines to not charge a premium. As much as I hate airlines, common sense must prevail.

This is a defensive answer. Facebook doesn't even enumerate the React related patents, so you're left guessing about that. At the very least, they should maintain and up to date list of patents granted. What do they have to hide?
Doesn't that only help if we have a react clone to drop in place? That's not necessarily hard to do without patents, but does it exist?

Edit: I think I see what you are saying. It says you lose the patent license, not necessarily the license for the software that doesn't have a patent, so doesn't do anything. Not sure how a judge would decide to interpret it though.
Do news outlets even make that distinction? Because I don't think they do. At least not in the broad sense of entertainment as "Content you consume despite complete lack of actionable information"

some news you find out and you're like "Holy shit, I gotta do X and Y and instantly change my behavior". Examples of such news are, "Tsunami barreling towards your city" or "Nukes detected en route to your town" or "Air raid incoming" or even "Draft starting for your target demographic". Or something more benign like "So and so VC is starting a fund for thing you're doing"

Most news, however, gets a reaction closer to "Oh, neat." or "That is outrageous! I must write a Facebook post about how this affects me so people don't forget that I exist in light o this tragedy". Examples of news like this: "Bowie dies" or "Terrorist attack in city 8000km away" or "US gets involved in yet another war that doesn't affect you" or benign things like "VC starts a fund for thing you have zero interest in"
