> Which part of "bias is for the underrepresented group" do you not understand?

The part where it's not power-conferring bias, and therefore irrelevant to the hypothesis. People may smile more to women; that doesn't mean there's no power imbalance. You need to understand the hypothesis in order to contradict it. The hypothesis is: society marginalizes women from positions of power.

> decidedly non-topical links you have provided.

Really? Why don't you do a Google Scholar search and see how typical or non-typical they are?

> Same with gender differences being socially caused.

Who said that? You said that you've read Pinker, but he's arguing against opinions that simply no longer exist (in any considerable strength, at least). That Pinker says that feminists don't believe that there are biological differences between the sexes doesn't mean that we really don't. It's just something that he wants you to believe to ridicule our true position. He argues with a strawman.

> Which again, completely guts your claims.

What claims? Pretty much everybody knows differences are a combination of biology and society. But if you think we know exactly the relative size and strength of each, then you are sorely mistaken about the current state of the science.

> But no worries, you have already made clear that evidence is of no interest you

Evidence of what? What are you even arguing? That there are biological differences between the sexes? You will have to try very hard to find feminists who disagree with you on that. Why do you think this has anything to do with sexism?

If there were alternative chipsets still around, we would see more motherboard makers adopting something like openBMC with an alternative chipset and using it.

No we wouldn't. All the chipsets would be subject to the same market forces and thus would converge on similar features, including the ME. Just like how 99% of x86 systems are running UEFI instead of coreboot.

Is this really correct? If I decide to use privacy protection then I no longer own my domain?!
I've no interest in, or support for, Stormfront, its members or its message but I absolutely do not support this and other recent actions from members of our industry.

The constant censorship and de-platforming is one thing, the support from otherwise intelligent and rational people (such as those on HN) for these actions is another, and vastly more worrying, thing entirely.

It's unfortunate to see society rapidly devolving to a far more basic, ignorance driven tribal culture driven by identity politics.

Mixed feelings about this.

Fields, the driver, is Jewish I thought?

Where are you going to stop... will you turn off all the Berkeley Antifa domains also (whatever they are), since they directly radicalized Eric Clanton and his 7 assaults with a deadly weapon in 1 day, four of which he is currently charged with?

Or is 4 counts of assault with a deadly weapon not enough, and the bar should be set at say, 10?

Or is only murder, justification? What if Fields pleads to criminal negligence causing death, a lesser charge - will you give stormfront back their domain?

27 files sounds absurd. Maybe you're doing more than adding a store with some action?

Sorry, but this is nonsense.

Eliminating racism doesn't turn society into a monoculture--it permits lots of different cultures to coexist without threat of violence.

The world would be better off in every way without racism (except for those who directly benefit from racism--but fuck those guys.)

If this stands as-is, it could set a precedent enabling registrars to hijack domains, which is frightening.

Netsol absolutely has the right to no longer provide them DNS and/or registration, but they cannot simply place the domain on hold indefinitely due to their own capriciousness.

How is it acceptable to let a corporation arbitrarily decide, after taking your money, that they no longer wish to provide you with that service AND block your ability to use what you paid for?

In practice, it seems to create a black hole where a school that serves a population that isn't good at tests (e.g disabled kids, non English speakers) gets low scores so everyone who could get a good score leaves and then the school does even worse and gets less funding and then the school is failing and the "fix" is to fire the administration, spend money bringing in new staff who don't know the area or the students, and expect that to solve the systemic issues revealed by poor test scores.
To avoid this, schools are indeed incentivized to improve - for instance, by directing low performing students to stay home on the day of the test, or by discouraging students with learning difficulties from attending at all.
I work as a software developer for an NGO and we sometimes get coders who want to volunteer their time to us. Quite frequently, this turns into a lot of overhead for us with little to show for.

Given the choice, I'd prefer this model.

Donation cash is the sweetest thing an NGO can have, and doing development work in exchange for a donation like this seems like a really cool way to raise it.
Any hypothesis that violates the zero-arbitrage principle should be taken with a grain of salt.
I disagree. Having a place to go where likeminded people encourage you to do bad shit isn't a good thing. Stormfront was an echo-chamber of hate that normalised their members evil thoughts and actions.
It's just a sign of political polarization. Like when people say the republican governor of Texas [did something not aligned with Democrat values] when discussing liberal ideas.
I'd love it. But it probably would increase the manufacturer's costs for the motherboard (including engineering, component costs, etc.), distract the organization (managers, engineers, purchasing personnel, etc. spending time on this novel tech instead of just buying Intel/AMD chipsets), reduce quality (can they really compete with Intel's engineering resources?), which increases support costs, etc. ... all for a market that unfortunately is too small to measure.
taking away their domain names doesn't eliminate racism. all those stormfront folks are just as racist as they were yesterday. and now it is harder to keep an eye on them.
I gave up and checked out their website. It's an "amateur" for-pay clip site (that claims to specialize in "genuine" sex) that does revenue sharing back to the users, according to the various claims I could see in 30 seconds of poking around.
I lost a domain I owned for 17 years because I was unemployed when renewal came up and missed the email.

My sympathies for storefront are not strong. Domains are no more concrete than a street address you don't own it. The sooner you realize this the better. If you have a better system, present it.

Registrars could give a fuck about you. You are a monetary item. If you don't produce they will find a way to make your domain produce.
I wish Indian politicians were like this. The writer is the mayor's political opponent and yet he wrote an article supporting the mayor.

had this been India, the opponent of the Mayor would have politicized the situation and asked for resignation of the mayor and claimed that it was a mistake to not evacuate.
> 6 million people

How many in low lying, flood prone areas?
Yes, absolutely we should try to eliminate racism and society would be better off in every way. But there are many methods to eliminate racism. Do we want to persecute them and turn them into martyrs? Or do we want to educate them and change their minds?
Thanks. Looks pretty perfect.

Yes, it would, but the way to get rid of racism isn't to take down the websites of racists.

> True, Cruise and Waymo will almost certainly beat them to market.

It's easy to see that Waymo has a big lead, but on what basis are you making the claim that Cruise is ahead. Disengagements? That's still far from being reliable measurement to compare how companies are doing against one another if they aren't all testing under the same conditions. You can easily encounter more disengagement scenarios by testing in more challenging environments.

Uber and Waymo have been testing in challenging environments for a while now. Cruise only recently started testing under more challenging conditions. Their published disengagement figures are all based on 2016 miles, which were "planned tests to avoid unexpected behavior".

Pretty much all the other car companies are non-existent in terms of testing in challenging environments. BMW for example had one disengagement for 638 miles driven in California in 2016, but they only drove 638 miles, so the question is where they tested. The one disengagement they had was on 101 northbound.

You can look at the reports yourself to see how incomparable they are:

Yeah I dunno if I like the false choice between "evacuate incompetently" and "don't evacuate at all." Could there maybe be a third option of evacuating only the relevant areas (low-lying ones near the bayous), safely and efficiently, via a well-thought-out plan?

I really don't like this kind of rationalization for censorship on technicalities.

Technically correct may matter legally, but we should make it clear that it is not acceptable for companies like Network Solutions or Facebook to engage in this behavior. If the law does not protect speech in these instances, we should push back using other means.

It's simply not reasonable to expect non-technical, non-lawyers to understand these nuances well enough to get their message out without risking censorship. Today, that's OK because we're talking about a very bad message, but tomorrow it may not be quite so OK.

Too late to edit, but a correction:

While they are sometimes combined under the “Greatest Generation” label, this actually was intended to refer to the Silent Generation (the one mostly too young to fight in WWII, but born before its end.)
Testing in production: Yes, you can (and should)
From what I understand, because the contact information pointed at Network Solutions' privacy protection service, there's no official "record" of ownership pointing to anyone else. So the domain ownership is in limbo since Network Solutions can't (or won't) verify the actual owner.

I think this also brings up the question of how much control registrars have over a "purchased" domain. Am I buying that domain? Or am I buying the ability to tell the registrar what to do with it?
> Even NPR is questioning the present stance

The headline has a question mark at the end; that's the extent of the "questioning". The rest of it lists every point made to support the decision to stay. It even notes at the end that both FEMA[1] and the state government not only refused to question the mayor's decision but backed it.

It's not a critical story, and it's disingenuous to suggest that simply because "even NPR" ran an explainer story, that there's some widespread official or credible base of observers "questioning the present stance".

[1] Literally:

> where people of less hight has been marginalized from positions of power[1] at least for as the written history.

That may well be, and perhaps that problem needs addressing, but there is a question of extent. Women have been marginalized to a far greater extent than short people. You find many more short men in positions of power than you find women.

> If you show me research showing how socitey confers more power to people of smaller hight, then that would be something to consider. Only that data is worthy of consideration, and as you can't do that, we can just conclude that I am right and you are wrong.

There are literally mountains of evidence for the marginalization of women. A 1-minute Google-scholar search will confirm that. Just a few highlights: until recently, women weren't allowed to vote; they weren't allowed to join many professions; they weren't allowed to study or encouraged not to; they couldn't even control property unless in special circumstances. That has been going on for centuries. Like with blacks after slavery, the removal of legal barriers did not change the power imbalance over night. It took decades of political action to get a higher representation of women in politics, management and academia, and the struggle has been largely successful. For example, you can find research from 20-30 years ago showing that boys do better at math than girls (hinting at a biological difference), yet that difference has now largely disappeared. Let me just link a few introductory Wikipedia articles:

A Primer on Automating Chaos
They will oftentimes have a plan for evacuation that has been modeled ahead of time. Of course, they may not follow this plan.

They should shut down inbound highways and use both sides for routing traffic out of the affected area. They should keep the breakdown lanes free of all obstructions to allow shuttles to have bi-directional traffic. Don't tow, or repair, personal vehicles that break down, shove them off the paved surface and put the people on the shuttles. Etc...

Outbound traffic, properly routed, can be done quite rapidly. It takes cooperation and isn't very polite. It's also going to be a political disaster if the emergency turns out to have not been as bad as expected.

You might not damage yourself, but you're not going to be able to see anything either.

Regardless of the merits or flaws of either identity, it is a fallacy of false equivalence to claim they are of equal threat to the public safety. Antifa are a rowdy thuggish reactionary youth subculture that only shows up to rallies, neo-Nazis are a real danger that have been tracked by law enforcement officials for decades.

Oh, Jaga, C#, Kotlin. Now I'm disappointed.
That’s not relevant to my point - these are awful people, but they should be free to state their beliefs. They shouldn’t be free to act on them.

More importantly: it’s much better for everyone if we know who they are. I’d certainly feel better if I knew who was a direct risk for my wife.

Honestly I wish there was a site that just enumerates Nazis in America. But at the same time I’d be worried about the converse: a site the tracks “antifa”. There are some awful people who would fall under the strict “member of antifa gang” style semantic, but the Nazis are labeling all non-Nazis as antifa. Given there’s at the very least a white supremicist as president I’d be concerned about giving carte Blanche privilege to label people like this.

Everything is awful. I fucking hate those asshole “trump is better than Hilary because I don’t research anything other than some nd bite” people that put us in this position
AFAIK:

You never own the domain. You register it for a period of time, subject to terms of an agreement. I'm almost certain of that, unless something has changed recently. I'm surprised so many on HN seem unaware of it.

If you use privacy protection, you are not the registrant; the privacy protection vendor is. That's what I've read in agreements with the privacy vendors, and that's what the whois record says.
This is easily 10% of the reason I own a motorcycle.
In my mind, “PC market” means personal computing devices of all form factors. Any other definition is splitting hairs to serve your desired outcome.

Anyway, when is the last time software alone got someone from point A to point B? It’s a hell of a lot easier to license software from a provider than it is to outsource the building and shipping of reliable vehicles.
> [Toyota] don't make battery electric cars. (They're fixing that, but won't be shipping until 2022.)

2022 is a good year if they come up with good tech. At the moment the market for EV's is small, tech is new and only Tesla really shows of something (they have to, because EV's are their only business). All big car makers are researching, from new diesels (double injector SCR's) to EV's & autonomus driving. And if they don't (or go too slow for some), then 1st tier suppliers like Bosch & Continental are doing it.
What planet do you live on? That's exactly how you start serious problems. You're also implying that verbal bullying is harmless.

We've let the internet become the a terrifying hate indoctrination tool and this is just the tip of the iceberg. It took a person driving through a crowd of protesters to wake people up. Racist thoughts are common as a function of biology, in regular society we have checks against it growing to insidious levels. Online it's been open season for the hate groups to take advantage of modern marketing tactics to recruit and spread hate with alarming efficiency leading to violence.

If I read the article correctly, most of the flooding is due to heavy rains, not storm surge. Even in Singapore, predicting which areas will be flooded due to heavy rains isn't easy, judging from the number of local reports of floods after heavy rains. This will make it difficult to judge which areas to evacuate.

This is the relevant part of the article: "Attempting to evacuate areas that might be affected by localized flooding because of rainfall is an entirely different problem from evacuating areas in danger of flooding by storm surge, the rise in seawater level caused by a storm’s winds pushing water onshore. We can predict with reasonable accuracy what areas will be flooded by storm surge based on the forecast and elevations. But flooding from rainfall is highly unpredictable and variable based on the dynamics of each particular rain event. Rarely will we know days in advance which areas will be flooded."
Why is that an okay situation to be in? Given things floods, dirty bombs, etc. have a non-zero chance of happening, shouldn't cities, states and countries have the infrastructure to perform mass-evacuations if necessary?
100 years isn't rare? Yes, using taxes. Taxes aren't just for waging wars.
