I think you missed the commenter's point. He isn't saying that you shouldn't travel with your two-year-old. He's saying that if it really bothered him, he'd be willing to pay a more expensive fare for a more private method of travel. He isn't bothered enough, so he isn't willing to pay more.
In theory a system can be designed where the people in group 2 don't encounter animals when they fly. As a person with flight-relevant allergies, namely peanuts, I've been happy that many airlines are moving towards other snacks, and I don't need to insist that every single airlines does as long as I have reasonable options.

A system cannot be designed where people in group 1 don't encounter anxieties when they fly.

So, from a pure, amoral optimization standpoint, it's better to have a system where people in both groups can fly than one where people in only one group can fly.

(Which I think is the position you're advocating.)

Yea, those are all really interesting suggestions! I assume they'll be trying some small changes to see how they affect the experience.
Just for the record/FYI, they already re-invented it as the "tweel" a few years ago:

and it is actually available (and works just fine in some specific application).
support animals are generally a joke and not used for their intended purpose anymore as the article articulates while being allergic is a much more real issue and unfair as a passenger.
The question of purpose is alot more nuanced than that. biologically it is hard to argue that reproduction is a significant part.
While it's true that babies are annoying, I subscribe to the (now apparently radical) belief that human babies are in a category that grants them more rights than pets. Travelling with a baby is sometimes unavoidable (or, as in the case you mention, generates such an enormous personal benefit that it outweighs the inconvenience to your fellow passengers).

It is never necessary to fly with your dog uncaged in the main cabin. Ever. Full stop.
Oh here come the SJWs to tell you how wrong you are for even daring to suggest men and women are different or even worse - men and women are merely a social construct and there's really no such thing as gender or abilities there's just systems of power preserving historic gender roles because something something western white male something something evil. Just a hunch...

Edit: Apparently this comment triggered some snowflake and got flagged. The mean man on the internet said something I disagreed with! :'(
Societal expectations do play a big role, and it's an open questioned as to whether that's a Natural Rule or whether we just haven't tried other cultural configurations enough yet. And you're right, psychological gender probably does play a large role in the effects. It's helpful to note here that biological gender, psychological gender, and gender expression do not vary independently though.
3. If you need a support animal, and want to bring it in confined spaces with other people, you should make sure it's hypoalergenic
Your parents being in poor health is not an avoidable situation. Planning a cross country vacation with a new born is pretty awful behavior though.
Having two different versions is not an issue, tools like GVM helps in managing them. Docker helps in handling this easily without any extra tools. But, if something is built with a version, it cannot be easily changed without thorough testing.

For e.g. when Kubernetes was built with Go 1.8 instead of 1.7, emptyDir teardown path was broken due to the change in behavior of os.Rename in Go 1.8 [1]. This bug caused other issues like the one with minikube [2] and they had to rebuild with Go 1.7 and update new binaries for already released v0.20.0

I remember attending a talk at my physics student union about 15 years ago, by an alumni who worked at HP. IIRC, he was applying his former astronomy knowledge of dust-particles to make physics simulations for figuring out how toner particles actually behave. It was a lot more interesting than you might think.

It is actually amazing that printers (inkjet, laserjet or the various 3D ones) work as well as they do; there is a ton of really advanced technology under the hood there working at micro- if not nano-scales.

I always see people gasp when they hear things like this, but can you really disprove it? I'm genuinely curious.
This manifesto makes the same mistake as the partisan left/right political parties. It lumps a whole bunch of issues together and says, "if you don't believe all of these to be true, you're not one of us." Great, another exclusive ideology that basically asks its adherents to be stupid and unquestioning. No thanks. This is already a feature of current partisan politics. How about politics for people who prefer to think for themselves? That would truly be something to see--real progress. Because there are plenty of people who don't fall into the left/right parties or this modernity middle camp. Some of us realize that each issue should be evaluated independently. I know this is literally beyond comprehension for partisans like the author of this article and every political party I've ever read about, but it is reality.
I pushed back against CSS for a long time because people were telling me that HTML tables were evil and that I should use CSS (the original) instead. So I tried rebuilding my simple three column autoscaling (the left and right columns were fixed size, the middle filled all of the remaining space) website and after waving many dead chickens I still wasn't completely happy with the results. People were pointing to stuff like CSS Zen Garden layouts that had oceans of wasted space on large screens and completely broke on small screens.

Plus the documentation was written in this incredibly formal style that was very difficult to read and browser support was all over the map. In the end I went back to tables and just used CSS to set fonts and colors. Even more amazingly, CSS2 still sucked at this very obvious problem! But at least by this part people had figured out slightly less hacky workarounds (still with tons of clear: both though) that let one remove HTML tables while still retaining some sanity.
I have had quite different experience. I have traveled a fair amount with my son and his medium-sized, and thus atypical-looking service dog. TSA has never given us any kind of special treatment, except once late at night in Denver when an agent allowed us to go through the pre-check lane and thus not wait in a long line. Even then, we still had to go through all the same procedures as the full lane: Shoes off, gear out and screened as usual, service dog gear off, me carry or walk with service dog through screener, swab my hands, and only with all-clear, be allowed to recollect gear.
The parts of copyright law that Sci-Hub is violating in most countries' copyright laws are parts that have been in place at least as far back as the 19th century, long before the US was using trade pressure to try to influence anyone's copyright laws.

In fact, up until near the end of that century if anyone was using trade pressure to try to get copyright changes, it would have been other countries trying to get the US to change. The US copyright law at the time provided very little protection for foreign authors. Their works were essentially public domain in the US.
Equal, mandatory parental leave would go a long way toward leveling the playing field.

Western cultures are still much more understanding of men being absent from their children's early lives than mothers. These sorts of cultural expectations and allowances are often taken for granted by the people who argue that "inequality of outcome != inequality of opportunity."

If women are to take a career hit for raising their kids, why shouldn't the men who fathered them take that hit as well?
In the long history of humanity, there was no real possibility of somebody living, say, in Oakland, California, to obtain a loan from a bank located in New York, without even meeting anybody from that bank or having any prior relationship or specific recommendations. Moreover, if you are a representative of lower classes, the best loan you could hope for is probably your local grocer deferring a payment for a week or so. But don't try to pull that on a grocer in the next village, unless you're a noble or something - he doesn't know you, so cash is king. Of course, if you're noble living in a big castle, things are different for you. Unfortunately, most of the people weren't. That's why prototype credit reporting agencies - with people literally having books where they recorded all kinds of info about people, like where they work, how they pay, do they have affairs (there's a risk they'd drop everything and run away with their affair partner if they do), are they gambling, are they drinking, etc. That's what gave the raise to the modern credit reporting agencies. But before that you surely had access to loans, but not nearly at the scale you have now. You didn't have online comparison of 50+ lenders competing to give you, sight unseen, the best rate. You had to convince your local banker, and if he didn't like you (for any reason, including speaking funny, having wrong complexion or not being in a good relationship with one of his friends), tough luck, no loan for you.
Terrain height just changes the Y position when where you draw. Draw order is still the same. The formula for tile map space to screen space is:

scrx = mapy16 - mapx16;

scry = mapx8 + mapy8 - GetSurfaceHeight(mapx,mapy)*12;

IIRC, this assumes origin is in top most tile, with increasing Y going down. So each step the terrain increases, you move the tile you draw up 12 pixels higher from the lowest point.
Taxi drivers have cameras pointed at the customers often.

But I'm surprised you can't find other examples. The bank I go to has a camera. Maybe the supermarket at the exits. That's pretty much it for the town - almost everyone I interact with has no cameras. Some never will - for example doctors.
Leave what? Leave a confined space that previously did not have animals in it? Leaving because you are allergic to support animal is irrational because it would have to happen first. Tube empty of animals already happened.

This argument requires holding support animal in tube is already foregone conclusion.

As Yev mentioned above, we MASSIVELY sped up restores fairly recently (August 2017). We understood waiting for restores for a few days was an inconvenience for customers and I'm personally very proud of the results. Would LOVE for you to try it again, but I fully understand if you don't want to.

Because CloudFlare is a proxy, it doesn't take much work to turn it off or switch to another CDN. This dramatically reduces the risk of using them.

Also, CloudFlare is far less capricious than any other company, even free speech crusaders like Twitter and Reddit. AFAIK, CloudFlare has capriciously banned just one site in its history.
> If you don't have the equipment to safely drive your car when there's snow on the ground, drive zero days a year when there's snow on the ground

A portion of this story reminded me of the "Story of Manna" by Marshall Brain regarding the automated fast food restaurant.

These days, it would be very cheap and easy to wire up simple "HELP" buttons at all the trouble points in a restaurant, along with cameras and machine vision (other than cameras in the bathroom). And those sensors could create a synthesized view of a restaurant or department store, or whatever. The synth view can then inform where help is needed.

But these sensors, low energy cpu's and radios are already attainable at the cheap. And at industrial productions, could be as low as $.50 per button. I'm really surprised why nobody has done this yet - and I read the article and found that yes they have. It's called HappyOrNot, and it's for surveys and quality control of every metric in 1 variable.
We aren’t quite sorted enough to use hashi vault everywhere, so a few of our teams are using https://dotat.at/prog/regpg/ which is a wrapper around gpg that enormously simplifies key management, in a way that works well with a version control system. It has hooks to work with git and ansible, because that’s what we use, but the core functionality can work with other tools equally well.

You might also consider https://github.com/StackExchange/blackbox which does the same job in a similar way.
For what it's worth even for those "only" two days per year with snow on the ground driving with snow tires vs driving with normal tires or even with all-seasons could make a hell of a difference (like getting back safe to your home vs kissing a ditch). Source, me, a guy who was at first against the relatively recently introduced legislation that mandated the use of snow tires during the winter months, but who changed his opinion pretty damn fast when I got caught by some early snow (late October - early November, I usually put my winter tires in late November) and I had to drive through the resulting slush like I was on a damn skate-rink. Snow tires do save lives and should be really mandatory even in places where it snows only two days per winter.

JS devs happily call it a "solved problem" after they completely reinvent it after every release of their framework du-jour. It's solved until it's not, then you solve it again.

Is react-router stable yet? I looked at react a year ago and every tutorial out there used outdated syntax because they revamped the whole thing. The last angular project I worked on tried 3 different approaches through the life of the project.

The point is, with web pages as just documents that come to the browser fully-formed, there's no need to ask the question any more: the URL is the path to the document, and you get a new URL when you get a new document. There's no need to make special cases for popups/etc since the answer is always "no". You just don't do routing logic on the client at all.

Edit: just to be clear about what I'm advocating, if you embrace the document-style non-single-page model, you simply don't worry about view state or how it's routed/represented: any javascript code you do write (jquery etc) doesn't need to touch it, and any "real" hyperlinks that load a new page from the server naturally affect the view state normally.

'Sending children to day care for large amounts of their youth has shown to be highly detrimental to their development'

What are your sources for this claim?

In Sweden 85% of 2 year olds are in day care enabling mothers to work. This has been the case for decades.

Source: http://www.keepeek.com/Digital-Asset-Management/oecd/social-...

If what you claim is true the entire country of Sweden should show adverse affects. It simply does not.

> So, if the author really thinks that animals are a bigger problem than TSA, they are probably one of those people who "cheats" security by paying for pre-check to avoid going through proper security.

As opposed to someone who brings an "emotional support" animal with them to cheat their way through security?

The main problems I have with "emotional support" animals is their owners. These people are usually inconsiderate of others and completely self centered.

I've witnessed on multiple occasions dogs shitting or pissing all over commuter trains and their owners just hop off the train and leave it for everyone else to deal with. You'll often see these people at the gate trying to get priority seating by shoving their dog in the attendent's face while the attendant is trying to help other passengers with legitimate needs. I've been nipped by one of these dogs on a flight and the owner's response was "she feels threatened by you." I suggest she might put the dog in her cage since I can't move seats at which point she tried to have my seat moved by an attendant.
I'm not surprised - maybe it's just too early. I assume you're talking about undergrads. I didn't get interested in type theory until I'd been a programmer for many years. I think a few students will be immediately drawn to stuff like this but others will need to learn and use a few programming languages to appreciate the finer points.
And that still confounds the issue of biological gender and what society constructs to be gender. I doubt that reliable research into this can currently be made since obviously any person that has been brought up in today’s society has been brought up with this societies notion of gender roles. And boy, have we been wrong about what we considered what women could or could not do in the past.
Cats are allowed in the cabin but have to be kept inside of a carry on container. I doubt much of their dander is getting out.

If you've flown more than a couple times, you've probably had a cat on your flight. The one time I flew with my cat, the people sitting next to me didn't even notice her.

Self driving cars safety track record during testing suggests these are already very well designed systems.

I also don't think you can get to self driving cars without testing them on public roads. So far it's been very safe and potentially it's going to save millions of lives so I don't have a problem with this.

Further, these cars are not simply turning off in traffic they are making errors known while continuing to drive as safely as possible. That's vastly safer than suppressing errors which generally results in people ignoring them.
I asked because examples didn't immediately occur to me, though this isn't a topic with which I'm particularly conversant.

Acapulco, Mexico, is a former tourist mecca that's been transformed, though, as with a few other examples I can think of, largely through violence (here: drugs wars).

Niagra Falls remains a tourist destination, but not of a scope that it once was. There are several other destinations I could think of, also largely East Coast U.S., which once commanded a high volume of traffic but which are no longer premier destinations.
Drivers that you may also need to pay for when upgrading your OS even though they only work with an HP device that you also paid a lot of money for.
Thank you. I'm tired of having these discussions and would love to live in a world where men and women are just assumed equal and we don't have to discuss these things. We no longer discuss if people of different color are equal right? It's amazing what shit women have to deal with.

Most people in the USA don't realize this but women only became full citizens only as recently as the 1970s when they were finally allowed to be on juries. That's less then 50 years ago.

> we're going to spend years untangling the muddy notion in many people's minds that equality of outcome is expected when there is perfect equality of opportunity.

The issue is how you can really measure 'equality of opportunity'. There are so many ways hidden structures can make it seem like there is equality of opportunity without it being there in practice. With 'equality of outcome' it is at least easy to track how we are doing, though it could be leading us away from the goal.

In the James Damore memo, he actually proposed reaching equality of outcome by e.g. changing the jobs until they appealed equally to men and women on average. Perhaps that's one way to cut this knot.
