Ask HN: Do you answer Equal Opportunity Employment forms?
Basically, do you input your gender, race, veteran status, and disability status in job applications? I'm not asking for your info, just whether you choose to give it out to companies when applying for jobs. No judgement either way, I'm just curious about other people's opinions.

I'm relatively new to this and always fill them out, but I feel like if I was born in a different body or place, it could affect my decision.
I think the idea is that since older mother age increases complications, the average cost is higher and so the hospital risks to lose more if you don’t pay. I don’t agree if this is the thinking, though, since $5,000 as insurance against non-payment is too large a step, and I would imagine older parents, on average, are more likely to be able to, and choose to, pay their bills.

I don’t know how being on one’s second or third child affects the likelihood of complications.
It's not about how significant the error, but that they don't care about their quality. When they interview someone without verifying that person actually works for a company, it shows they don't care about their quality.

They could fix it afterwards, but they don't even do that.
Even then there was a better way to do it. E.g. C# copied the C switch/case/break also, but with a caveat that all branches had to terminate without falling through. So you have to put a break there (or a return, or a goto, or a throw - basically any statement for which the compiler knows the control flow won't get past it).

And in rare cases where you do want fallthrough, they added the ability to "goto case" from the body of one case label to another. Which is kinda nice, because it follows the original C design in treating case labels as, well, labels.
I do know that in eyewitness accounts of the firebombings of Tokyo during WWII, the smell had been described as roasted pork. Plus human meat is called long pork, so draw your own conclusions.

Java anon classes couldn't capture non-final locals back when they were introduced. So they were closures, but not full-fledged. In contrast, C# anon delegates could capture any local, including writeable ones.
I agree, I was trying to be generous.
I will say that my comment was an attempt at making your concerns more concrete because they honestly don't make a lot of sense to me, but I feel like you just made them even more abstract. Based on the content of your comment and the seeming certainty of your opinions, I suspect we probably couldn't disagree more.
We are constantly working on allowing Luna to produce executables as alternative form to interpretation mode. It will definitely be possible to output executable from Luna graph without requiring end-users to have any runtime installed!

Regarding point 3 - I do agree that well designed library management will be very important. We are right now designing it and are looking for people who want to help us implement it! :)
Right, but many websites have a "Browse for file..." or Import/Export popup which then launches the native file dialog, or the Save function opens the image in a new tab or something. They're making it as close as technically possible to MSPaint's behavior.
Would anybody else vote on this one issue? Any candidate who said flat out "your government is spying on you through giant corporations and they're all lying about it, and I'm going to Washington to put a stop to it" would have my vote.
Demurrage[1] money acts in a similar manner to encourage usage of a currency. Freicoin[2] implemented a demurrage fee mechanism of 5% per year, which would have the effect of eventually clearing out burned "dead" tokens, although the transaction history would still need to be stored until the end of time if you ran a full node that long.

They can't use "return", because it already means something else in Java, including inside a switch statement.
Ah. I had thought I read previously that it was going to be a sizable campus. Perhaps it will be smaller than I had originally thought.

635/DNT would probably be a decent place for it, now that I think about it...
I believe in the UK, hospitals are by law required to give you the fully itemized bill. Knowing transaction price up-front seems to be an obvious part of market health.
Two weird bits of trivia about T2K, it supports spinner input via a secret key combo.[0]

Later on T3K for the Nuon (a system which nearly nobody knows about) also supported spinner input but the spinner controller was never actually released.

It wasn’t until 13 years later[1] a buddy and I reversed the settings to enable spinner control via a modified controller, which are extremely rare themselves because who buys a game controller for a DVD player?

Yeah, it's a good thing that the world isn't all that complicated and that all of our problems can be solved with simplistic, well-intended platitudes.
If you're just testing on localhost, there should be no need for a cert. As the article says, localhost is treated the same as https here. In the future, I expect all features that require a secure context will start treating localhost as secure, if they don't already.

Wow, I've been passively interested in getting a GoPro camera for a long time, but knowing their remote control requires a cloud service (I thought it was local wifi) is a total dealbreaker. Same with Hue lights. It is absolutely ridiculous for the customer to be locked out of their own hardware.
Of course there are biological limits that training can’t surmount.

My point, more broadly, is that the idea that, “I can’t do that....genetics!” is misplaced defeatism.
I’d say freedom to “control what you own” includes freedom to control what an app can do to the device you own - that is, to sandbox the app. The status quo on desktops is that you have to basically trust every single program you install not to be malicious, because they all have full access to everything that matters. That doesn’t feel like control to me at all.

Sure, it’s important that there be a way to override the sandbox, for certain use cases where you need to hook into existing programs and change their behavior, or do other things that can’t be nearly circumscribed in the notion of an “app”. But that should be rare. If you just want to run something that can be described as an app, then it shouldn’t require gambling with all your data.

And on that front, as it stands, mobile platforms and browsers are both significantly ahead of desktop operating systems.
Arrows has been historically used for both functions and matches in languages that support both. E.g. Ocaml:

let rec fib = fun x ->
match x with
| 0 -> 1
| 1 -> 1
| _ -> fib (x - 1) + fib (x - 2)
And yet people think that we need to use the same types of list for firearm ownership & purchases. That's frightening to me still.

Or just judge them by their actions, not anything that is said.

Examine their voting record, lobby donations, and primary information and action. Decide from there.
Additionally: they're optional procedures, ones for which there are often long-accepted reasonable substitutions, and you can take your time researching and comparison shopping. Given those conditions, you could reasonably expect a market of competing private providers to do pretty well at yielding reasonable prices for effective services.

(Absent those conditions -- anywhere that care and treatment are oriented around alleviating illness and suffering with any kind of immediate debilitating effects or urgency, really -- you might well expect that a market of competing private providers doesn't yield the same effects.)
There's little more irritating then pointing out something is going to bite you in the ass if not fixed, have it declared out of scope, and them be blamed when, as you predicted, it comes around to bite you in the ass. Especially when it makes it look like you're some amateur-hour bozo to a third party.
As a web dev who writes compilers in his spare time for fun, this is fascinating to me. I'd love to have access to more low level work, but I don't know how to find it or "make the leap." It seems like a need that's under-served for both employers and job-seekers.
The point is that it requires space. We have to keep a record of the pointer.

This monthly hike hurts me because I don't use Prime most of the year either: I pick it up for Christmas shopping season, it pays for itself easily in terms of lightning deals I can take advantage of. And sometimes I'll pick up a month when I'm going to buy a game, since Prime users can get $15 off new games, which covers the cost of the month of Prime.

But in most cases, yeah: I spend less money without Prime, and am rarely in a hurry, and don't mind waiting to hit the $25 minimum for super saver. Not having Prime has also lead me to shop elsewhere more: I buy stuff from Walmart, Target, and Best Buy a lot more in addition to Amazon purchases.
That is the complete explanation… JavaScript. Executing arbitrary code from strangers on the Internet is what makes browsers less secure.
I don't see anything controversial here.

First, you can always use unsafe and access low level registers ignoring all the synchronization. You are still getting typed access to the bits (well, contingent on SVD file quality), which is an improvement over hand-writing bit manipulation code (or using wrong constant for shift/mask in STM32 HAL, for example).

Second, look at the port splitting example. If you split port into pins, when you can independently move these pins into different execution contexts and you won't need any synchronization as well. Write to a pin would be a single write to BSRR register -- no read-modify-write. So you are getting safety and about the same generated code as for hand-written code (well, except that if you want to do multiple pins at once).

What if you want to reconfigure port? This is, actually, what was particularly annoying for me with the old version of svd2rust I/O. Even though I know that my two subsystems operate on completely different pins, I still had to pass CRL/CRH around, to avoid potential race when reconfiguring pins.

This new version has the same property, though, -- according to the article.

However, the solution is pretty straightforward. By using ARM bit-banging feature, you can have the same "split" atomic-share-nothing-style API for the port reconfiguration, too. Similarly, you would split, for example, GPIOA into 8 pins and each pin would allow you to both input/output data and change port direction.

So, bottom line, I think you can get best of both worlds most of the time: safety and performance of the hand-written code. And in corner cases, you can still ignore all the safety and access registers without any overhead.

I don't really understand what is this approach lacking for career firmware engineer.

(disclaimer: I haven't ported my firmware yet, so I could be wrong in my assumptions how this new I/O works).

I have made things more concrete, just not torn it into little unrecognizable micro-fragments that miss the point.

Can you be more concrete as to what you disagree with? So far, you have said nothing of substance, just asked me to do the work for you and then made a broad and dismissive claim.
Yep. I'm surprised phone companies don't do this. Like a console based chat that only needs the kernel when the 'nominal' battery has run out.

It's foolish to speak so brashly since you don't even know which part of CT I'm referring to.

They aren't near enough to any train stations to make the trip faster by switching stations. Your "brilliant" drive to a closer train station idea is still a 2 and a half hour total trip time for reaching the same place.

And if your commute daily you're not going to be guessing where you park, you'll probably have a monthly garage.

This all goes back to the parent comment which was just being obtuse. In theory no one "needs" to do anything, we can just sit around all day until we waste away.

People who "need" to commute in their cars really want to commute in their cars. No one is saying it's cheap, but it's a right that people have, and it's not hard to imagine that for some people commuting from NYC to CT daily, doing it by car is preferable to public transit.

I am skeptical that your phone provider will hold the extensive information they have on your location in confidence. I'm even more skeptical that the recipients of your IP packets will also hold whatever location information they can infer in confidence.
I used to live in a poorly insulates rented house with an air-source heat pump in Phoenix. The winter electric bills were fine; I got suffocated by the summer electric bill. It's too bad somebody didn't put a ground loop in that house when it was built, maybe 40 or 50 years earlier.

> The low price of natural gas is currently the biggest challenge for the success of geothermal heat pumps. If a home is equipped with a natural gas furnace for heating (and the need for cooling is limited) there is no financial reason switching to a heat pump, in fact, you’d be worse off.

Air conditioning is optional where I currently live. Cogeneration (with natural gas) and battery storage is a good intermediary step to the free-energy nirvana (fusion or whatever) that's hopefully in our future.
Group policies are still very expensive by international standards.

To add, ST has a 'datasheet' and a 'reference manual' for each chip and chip family. The datasheet is usually under 200 pages and is focused more on electrical information and is focused on a few chips. The ST reference manuals are generally over 1000 pages and cover all of the software/register information for a family of parts.
When I started off, I used to enjoy all programming regardless of whom I did it for.

Now, 20 years later, I enjoy only the programming that I do for my own ideas/projects/business, and don't enjoy the programming I sometimes have to do for others.

Another aspect that impacts the enjoyment for me is the part of the architecture I'm programming. I enjoy everything server-side or analytics related, especially if it's in Python / Java / C++. But I don't enjoy front-end activities like HTML/CSS web designs, javascript, or android front-end. I find front-end coding frustrating because doing it well sucks up too much time for little value and not much learning I can use in future, but cutting corners is also not an option because it's glaringly obvious and off-putting to users.

So it's a mixed bag. In my case, I'd say I enjoy 80 percent of all the programming I do.
> What things are you talking about? What is at stake?

"Poor people deserve to be poor" and "we shouldn't help drug addicts, its their fault" are the classic ones. The problem can be summarized as total responsibility assignment (i.e., the idea that a person is fully responsible for their state)

I'm assuming it because it's a very common problem. Discussions about nature vs nurture very often get redirected into moralism. Like this example here:

> the goal is not really to better understand anything about the nature of creativity but to give some justification for their perceived deficiencies

You're saying this as if these things are not related. If people repeatedly get the message that the only thing stopping them from being a great mathematician is hard work, that message better be correct, or there will be social consequences.

It's actually completely reasonable to question the message, and it's very problematic that in the current climate any attempt at questioning it results in a moralistic response akin to "you're just looking for excuses". This is the very kind of thinking I'm arguing against here.

> this kind of thinking is unproductive

The truth is never unproductive.

Other features:

- low barriers to entry (don't need a whole hospital)
- commoditized service
- non-essential
- non-emergency
- meaningful competition in most cities

Compare to hospitals, which are absurdly capital intensive, used by people who haven choice, used in emergency situations, and where many cities have very little competition (often a single PE firm buys all of the hospitals in a tier 2 city, to eliminate competition, and increase prices).

Why would someone who says that lie have your vote? Unless you're under investigation or living somewhere like Iraq, the government is not spying on you through giant corporations, as both the law and Snowden's leaks show.
I don't think so, though maybe I am misunderstanding. In the pathological case, imagine that a node has made no transactions at all for a year. The owner will have to go to look up how much money they have in the ledger before they can complete a transaction and discover they have no money. The space complexity of maintaining accounts is extremely small compared to maintaining transactions. All transactions that were associated with that account have been wiped from the public ledger. An archival ledger may keep a record of retired transactions, but the archival is not required to settle all accounts.
I always thought a recovery image that could send and receive calls and sms would be awesome. No internet, not even 2g. Just phone and sms. Maybe some contacts (name / number tuple) that'd exist separate from the main systems contacts.
