It's not the words that matter, but the body language, the look in the person eyes, when the person says something. If he nervously ticks with his fingers, or get red in the face at something shameful. The smile at your joke accompanied with that one guy who laughs with a funny sound, but is accepted anyway. The disbelief in someone's eyes, or a subtle wink to compliment you.

I do not like a text only world. Me and my friend are both big geek late 80's kids who got both worlds. We love computers and spend a lot off time with them, but we spend once a week physically together to hang out, even though we have our own private chat server.

This body language/physical presence and in context lack there-off with phone convo's might be a big part in it all..

Another example I have;

When I had to work abroad for a few months, I texted my girlfriend almost daily, but it was not until I came back, the very first sight and hug at the airport, that I felt first contact again, even though we technically had contact all the same through chat. It mattered none with one hug. I think this is not just because we are romantically engaged, and I believe this factor is relevant in every type of relationship to certain degrees.

tldr;

body-language is where the magic lies
I think your argument was a bad one which you attempted to shore up with an irrelevant and misleading rhetorical sleight of hand, comparing money grad students don't get to money other people do get and implying that because it was a high number that made them well off.

Some context: the page documenting lists [0] is the same page that documents all* Python's built-in types; lists are documented in section 4.6.4, where section 4.6 is titled "Sequence Types — list, tuple, range".

Many operations on a list are much the same as the methods on a tuple, so they are documented in one place – section 4.6.1 "Common Sequence Operations" – rather than duplicated in both the list and tuple documentation. Similarly, many of the methods supported by list are also supported by bytearray, so they are documented in 4.6.3 "Mutable Sequence Types" rather than duplicated. To get from the section on lists to the two sections describing the available methods involves pressing page-up twice. Hardly "strewn across three different location", and there's always help(list) if you really want a list of every supported method.

*all the ones you'll use regularly, at least

It’s a more general problem in need of a solution. It is in no way specific to tech. I’m involved in a lot of industries. I see a lot of claims that tech is particularly mysoginistic. I don’t think that is true, compared to other industries.

And analyzing the biology history, from 4.6 billion years of Earth existence, or from 13.7 billion years of universe's, for only 60 years humanity can detect the signals from space. Every step toward that wasn't "inevitable" but improbable. There weren't multicelular life until around two billion years ago, but it took then two billion years and a lot of accident to have the communicating capable humans.

And then, how long are we to last with this capabilities? We are much less smart than most believe, especially in preserving conditions for a communicating civilisation.
What are you arguing here? That the tech industry has fewer people than those others?

I've considered a few times switching to a qwerty (from french azerty), but there are two things that made me pull back:

1. french people I know who use qwerty tend to not write any accentuated characters anymore. I'm ready to accept compose keys are usable, but it clearly seems to encourage incorrect spelling when you use a language with a lot of accentuated characters in a sentence

2. vim. I really don't see myself fighting to remap my habits and workflows, given what I perceive as very few benefits switching layout would provide

I'm Norwegian, and what I've found is that I prefer a US keyboard layout for coding, and only switch to a Norwegian layout when writing Norwegian.

Especially given that æøå are generally using the triangle right of p and l, and so messing with my brackets and braces.

I remember those well enough that I have no reason to have them on the keyboard, which doesn't make it particularly inconvenient not to have them on the keys, and I can always switch to US layout with a quick keyboard combo if I need a character I don't remember the position of on Norwegian layout.

Of course, it helps that I live in the UK where the layout differences between US/UK keyboards are minor, so I'm not particularly inconvenienced when I have to use someone else's keyboard - if I lived in Norway I'd probably have stuck to a Norwegian layout.
I'm sure there are orders of magnitude more people reading the blogpost who have no idea who it was and who will now have no choice but to suspect both.

It is certainly possible to meet women in a way that is unambiguously not creepy, and you could always aim for that if you have trouble with where the line is.
I am female. I have firsthand experience with the arousal process. But, you know, just have your LOLs because sex is giggle-worthy. Firsthand experience of a woman plus MRI based research conclusions be damned.

I think I am done here. You boys just have fun with this. Never mind that it is a serious topic, and, yes, I meant it and I have cited my source.

(Though my wording was imperfect. A better phrasing would be that women lose cognitive functions that men do not lose, which is what I intended. I still think it is bad form to openly mock the point, especially given the subject matter under discussion.)

To whomever downvoted me: This is a discussion of rape and sexual assault. Multiple men have been openly mocking of me here en masse. It is completely disrespectful. You downvoting my annoyed reply to that makes you very much part of the problem here.
Ask HN: Is There a “Smart” Message Queue?
I'm currently using RabbitMQ for a variety of message queuing needs, and I'm running into a specific issue repeatedly.

If I push 10 messages to a queue, and say 5 of them have the same 'key' parameter, then I want to automatically discard the previous messages still in the queue with the same key.

Is there any message queue which already has this baked into it out of the box?
Hey everyone, proposal author here :D Surprised to see this show up on HN _now_, since the WICG discussion[1] has been held a good while ago.

The things that have been pointed out here are similar to the feedback we’ve gotten from other browser vendors. Most crucially: We might be conflating two separate improvements here. On the one hand, there’s the ergonomics feature of async-ifying remote value and on the other introducing custom worklets that can share OS threads.

As a result, I have extracted the magic sauce from the tasklets polyfill into its own library “Comlink”[2] and I plan to write a couple of web apps using it to gather some perf data. With that data we can hopefully figure out if the ergonomics layer is worth standardizing.

Same goes for the worklets. I’ll be using good old web workers and see how big the perf impact is. With that data we can hopefully figure out if we “just” need to optimize Workers or if there’s some gains that can only be reaped by the worklet approach.

MDMA as a tool for treatment has always been obvious to me. Any drug which can give you such a massive high, taking you so completely out of that low is a method bringing a person more in-tune to a place they should be.

But of course and critically at the same time the user should have the right thought processes in place for it to be effective and not something they cling too in a recreational cycle, in my mind it should only need to be one-time event.
I'd be very surprised if you only ever saw giant violent men being creepy.
> If Chrome’s implementation of web workers is too heavyweight, that’s Chrome’s problem.

You absolutely have a point. Ben Kelly from Mozilla pointed out to use that their workers are _much_ cheaper than ours. We apparently never invested much time in optimizing Workers as they are rarely used.
By that logic we should steralize the planet of all mamalian life, since rats carry some pretty bad disease.

But, to be picky, it is not like you have a confirmation that if you hadn't used this "technique" you would have had unsuccessful results.
I don't understand your second question. I'm not arguing that other industries have different numbers of people. I'm saying I'm not convinced that tech is more misogynistic and less meritocratic than other industries, especially entrenched industries with much fewer blogs and conferences where people get drunk around campfires.
Nobody is forcing you.

I wish we had more of these, not least because of the first comment: "great post. Didn't know it was this easy ;)"

People assume a lot of low level stuff like this is near magic not for mere mortals, and it's a great shame, because there's a lot of this kind of low level stuff that more people would benefit from playing with.

And because demystifying it is a great path to get people into kernel hacking even if they don't end up writing their own complete kernel.
I use the "mac" variant option for the US QWERTY layout (`setxkbmap us -variant mac`). This functions as a regular US QWERTY layout, but I've access to various "special" characters and latin extended characters (e.g. æåøœ¡), as well as ^'"`~ as dead keys (to create îûéèñũäüö or whatever) via a modifier key (I use alt, but you can set it to whatever).

This allows me to use a single functional keyboard layout to write English, Norwegian _and_ code in.

* Node.js backend

Yeah, in hindsight I don't take issue with your statement. It's true, and worth pointing out. I guess I just reflexively started assuming that such comments are in the 'whataboutism' category, but I have no reason assume that you meant it as such. My apologies for that.

Again, there is no charitable reason to interpret "X is a problem in Y" as stating that it's only a problem there.

Give you profess to be "bemused" that people call it "a problem in the tech industry", it seems you either believe it's not a problem at all, or it's specifically not a problem in the tech industry.
I am not arguing there is no wage gap, I am stating a proven fact there is no wage gap.

Outside extreme left authoritarian circles, which this site seems to be extremely slanted towards, that is an accepted fact, so I do not buy the overton window has shifted at all. You likely believe that because you live in a echo chamber probably on either the East or West coast.

As to providing an "alternate hypothesis", to what? The claim is that employers pay their female workers for the same work less than their male workers. This claim has been proven to be incorrect and instead only exist if you take all female wages added together across all roles, and compare that to all male wages across all job roles which only shows that women generally enter into less paying professions. Liberal Authoritarians then make the illogical leap that is because of sexism and the "patriarchy" with out any evidence to support that claim. That there is some grand conspiracy to suppress wages in any occupation that is dominated by female labor, and to keep women out of male occupations. I have yet to find any creditable evidence for these claims

To narrow the focus more to what we seem to normally come to "Why are there not very many female programmers", that is not a symptom of employment sexism, that demographic is not going after those jobs. Now we can debate the reason for this, often tracing it to High School or other teenage development factors, not to employment sexism.

I am not denying sexism in general or even sexism in the workforce, I am denying it is a factor of pay for the same job.

I work at a startup, which is around 15 months old now. We have no UI/UX designer, and have not focused on creating a good UX. We would love to have one, but have not found the right candidate yet.

But we are doing very well, we are now over 40 employees and have several of biggest names in the nordic countries as clients and our software is being interacted with hundreds of thousands of individuals every day.

Good UX is important, but it doesn't have to be "perfect". The most important thing by far for a startup is getting out of your office and talk with potential clients.

> There's no "only" implied in "it's a problem in the tech industry".

In my opinion lots of folks tend to infer the "only" because it helps them avoid uncomfortable thoughts.

A similar example is responding to "Black Lives Matter" with "All Lives Matter". Nobody was claiming that all lives shouldn't matter. The claim in the case of BLM is that black lives seem to presently matter less. That claim makes people feel uncomfortable so they subconsciously reframe it into being something unreasonable.

In this case, it may be that men in tech can feel better about themselves if this is a universal problem. If men in tech are just "typical guys" that eases the insecurities plenty of us have about being outsiders or social misfits (speaking for myself, obvs). On the other hand if it's a bigger problem in tech than other industries then suddenly those anxieties around other-ness are amplified.
> College college college college. Your 20s are when you figure out what you want to do.

This is ridiculous advice for someone who is in U.S. So you want him to get into a huge debt w/o even knowing what he wants to do?

I've read plenty of tweets and posts that claim that the tech industry is particularly misogynistic. I'm not convinced the tech industry is more misogynistic than other industries with which I have experience. I think there is some cognitive bias caused by the fact that the tech industry has more bloggers and more free time for drinking around campfires and calling it a conference.

This actually kind of upends my assumptions, and I just realized that this is not the first time.

My assumption was that 'men follow their dicks' more than women follow their equivalent sexual organs. But truthfully I've experienced plenty of situations that disagree with that conclusion.

Tentatively I'd say that while men do seem 'follow their dicks' in a more obvious way, my experience is that once women cross a certain threshold they do just the same, and perhaps even in a more extreme way (which psychologically is a rather obvious dynamic).

Again, that's a tentative conclusion. At the very least I've definitely had to let go of the idea that men are more likely than women to let 'horniness' get in the way of sound judgment. It's just such a strong narrative that I forget sometimes.
Patronizing! Don't we produce adults who can make their own rational choices anymore? On second thoughts, perhaps not and I'm wrong. [ In 2010, a UK government study concluded that 1 in 5 people between the ages of 16 and 19 (some of the voters of today), were functionally illiterate and innumerate. This in one of the richest countries in the world. I doubt the figures look any better now ]

Are you sure it was job titles and not the job descriptions, which tend to portray real heroic figures?

If it was job titles, really interested in some of those. Maybe can add some of those to spice up my resume ;)
