I'm reading "The Undoing Project by Lewis at the moment, finding it slow going, but interesting.
Your thought experiment shows how hard it would be. If we could do that, we could translate machine code into readable high-level programs.

To put it the other way around, it reveals something about how choice of programming language affects not only how we write a program, but what we write, and even how we think about the problem.

How does the MITM behaviour handle certificate failure? Has this been tested?
The people I'm honest with about my politics are people I've sort of slowly sussed out as cool, we're all pretty afraid to state many of our actual opinions because we're not rich.

I don't care very much but there are a ton of people out there afraid of being damore'd.
This trend hold in even the most progressive countries. Do you seriously think that "STEM across the world in multiple different cultures are prejudiced against women in precisely the same ways so as to produce the same gender disparities in the same fields" is a more reasonable explanation than there being some other factor, like some kind of inherent disinterest in these subjects?

Don't take my word for it though, there are actually plenty of studies showing that the "people vs. things" theory far better explains these gender disparities.
Really, the psychological study had data about lips smacking and drool? I can't find a link.
This article isn't just about Peter Thiel, it's about tech workers in general. Not everyone has the luxury of being a billionaire, and knowing that they live comfortably for the rest of their lives even if they become unemployable. The sentiments expressed by quotes in this article:

> People in Silicon Valley “openly lie to one another out of fear of losing their jobs or being publicly crucified..."

> Sometimes Silicon Valley venture-capital investors and startup founders “have a certain way of thinking, and if you don’t fit into that way of thinking you’re not in the cool club”

are things that I can absolutely identify with. And I consider myself a moderate liberal, I can only imagine what mainstream conservatives are thinking.
The argument here is that intolerance wants to have a voice. They feel persecuted because people don't view their intolerant viewpoints as points to be debated but rather ideals to be shunned.

This all stems from the sexist Ex-Google guy who is butthurt that he can't write a sexist manifesto at work and have his co-workers debate him on the science, but rather be fired and ostracizedfor expousing discriminatory views.

Sorry, free speech is protected from government persecution, not a guarantee of a debate or to have your ideas taken seriously or to not be criticized for professing them.
It is a pink ghetto and traditionally pre compulsory education was performed by women and was on the very few profession open to women pre 20th century
Unfortunately this is actually a good default response to psychology research.
You admit in your own writing that this is a new way to use twitter. And this wasn't twitter anyways. Most social media platforms have support for blasting things across the nation and support for more private info. You'd have to be insane to actually argue (and it seems thats what you're doing) that Peter Thiel was trying to tell the nation he was gay.
And when did Brendan Eich make public comments? When he privately donated to a cause?

You can be dismissed from leading a company today by privately supporting conservative causes. And there’s very little threat of a liberal CEO being dismissed independent of his private/public statements.

I have no desire to speak to any particular political subject in this forum; but it’s incredibly disingenuous to pretend this only happens to people who take public conservative positions.

Though even the charitable reading of your statement suggests that you believe that conservatives should stay in the closest. Which is a fascinating turn to say the least...

And, as a religious conservative guy in tech I’ll add my point of view: it’s okay to talk politics at work as long as you agree with everyone else. Those of us with dissenting world paradigms spend most of the day quietly wishing these conversations would end. Because there isn’t debate to be had at work; dissenting views are not welcome.

From that, here's the actual paper. Little methodology description, no significance testing, no indication of the number of participants or how they were selected. This has significantly diminished my belief in the proposition that power makes people more selfish in the cookie scenario. I still believe it is somewhat more likely to be true because of my priors, but this study didn't contribute much.
To claim that voting for the candidate who actually won the election is controversial is not rational. In my estimation this kind of intolerance is exactly WHY so many people voted for him despite his flaws.
How much luck?

People seem to often use things like this to rationalize any amount of takings. The word "fair" comes up a lot. But who decides what is fair and how you balance out this luck?

Is 50% taxes "fair" and by what standard? How about if person constantly gives to charity? Why should taxes be the preferred way to balance fairness?

Or how about if the person lives miserly, saving every penny as if it's their last? All that money goes into new business and reducing the cost of capital. That helps the entire world.

Trying to balance out luck seems like a fool's game. While individuals should be aware and be decent human that help others, i don't think society or government should be in the position of trying to rebalance the scales fate has given you.

There are too many ways to be wrong, have unintended consequences, or make the world more fair by dragging everybody down.

(Edit: have i been shadow banned or some similar enforcement? It seems comments i post often run to -1 very quickly)
You don't have to be racist to support the modern Republicans, but you do have to decide that racism really isn't a deal-breaker for you.
Lmao at people acting like people are insane for feeling right wing people are alienated and there being not one but two comments in this thread saying being a republican makes you a racist.
Lol. Also, isn’t he leaving to find his own echo chamber?
Nowadays when someone claims to be "serverless", there can be two interpretations:

1. It's a server actually. It's just that the server serves up functions, without state. So a more correct terminology would be "stateless servers"

2. Truly P2P (Like blockchain), therefore there truly are no "servers".

Used to think Amazon did a great job coming up with the jargon that's great for marketing, but lately as we see more and more option 2s which are TRULY "serverless", the option 1s increasingly sound like imposters.

After all in option 1, there ARE servers. To be able to claim you're "serverless", you really shouldn't have servers.

You're making a bold claim, which I am personally not seeing at all.

Replicated study or it didn't happen.
I can understand why someone would vote for Romney, McCain, Bush, Dole, but for the life of me I assume that if you voted for Trump you were ok with everything that was known about him; e.g. you believe it is OK to talk about grabbing pussies in the locker room. Trump is special, never before have we had a candidate on either side like this, at least Bill Clinton appeared to be ashamed about his BJ in the whitehouse.

That really has nothing to do with Silicon Valley specifically, Trump supporter has become a bad word in many big cities that Bush supporter never was.
"far-left" doesn't mean any singular thing, but a few characteristics I can think of are:

- Rejection of capitalism and private property

- Opposition to all forms of social hierarchy

- Rejection of electoral and reformist politics

- Revolutionary, often militant program

- Explicitly communist or anarchist in nature
But macros?
This last election was not normal. (Or it was more normal than we want to admit.) In my first-hand experience, I saw Republicans in the Bay Area spending money and time trying to stop Trump from being elected. These are not Republicans in name only, these are people who serve in the local GOP, people who worked in the George W Bush White House, people who believe in free markets with all their soul, people who want to drastically change the government. They hated Trump.
That's the exception in my experience. The vast majority use earbuds.
It always seems like a strange social situation, the polite thing is to ask if anyone else wants the last item, and yet the correct behaviour is for everyone else to say they don't want it so the asking party can have it. Have you ever seen a situation where someone says they want it?

So it's a race to ask if anyone else wants it, so you can have it, all the while waiting a polite amount of time before asking so you don't look like you're having seconds too quick. Just strange social dynamics all around.
Completely aside from this, how can you support Trump while knowing that he doesn't support you and his VP actively fights against LGBT rights?
"undeniably racist"? I'm curious. Do tell more.

Really, in Cuba, like in old USSR and other communist countries, you just don't see the inequality, which is far greater than anything that ever existed in the US. It just goes off a lower baseline.

Which is pretty much the same thing.
I think it's highly controversial considering how split the country is on the issue. It wouldn't be controversial if say, 80% of the population voted for him. But they didn't. Half the country did, which is precisely why it is controversial.
You can also ask if anyone would like to split the last one.

> If you could've gotten a free copy of a Harry Potter book the day after it went on sale, would you have paid for it?

Yeah, actually. In fact, that's basically what I did (for some of the sequels, not the first book). I don't get why everyone thinks that nobody is willing to pay creators. Kickstarter, Patreon, etc are living proof that people want to pay.

We really need to wake up to the fact that distribution for media is basically a solved problem. We don't need gateways who continue to creat artificial barriers just so that their dying industry can try and stay alive.
I don't think that that is really the Problem. We also know how to teach people something, without knowing how our Human Brain works. The Problem is Companies can select for certain unlawful behaviour, but nobody can proof that later.
I am speaking specifically about Peter Thiel. You and I probably agree about Brendan Eich.

I also agree that tech companies can be a difficult place for constructive political debate (or even agree-to-disagree conversations), and I do not think this is a good thing.
Ok. This is definitely going "into the weeds" as they say.

I'm not a US citizen and probably didn't follow all of this stuff as closely as you. Maybe Trump getting elected was literally worth crying over. I'll concede the issue.

Judging by the comments, no one has bothered to listen to the speech. The study is not the point of the speech.
Just to be clear, I wasn't advocating the loss of the ECHR/HRA benefits, merely that anything currently protected by the Charter and EUCJ should be established in primary legislation here as well, so that post-Brexit our own courts can take it into account directly.

My personal view is that parliamentary sovereignty is a dubious principle at best in this sort of situation, and that we are long overdue for constitutional reform such that the protection of fundamental rights is enshrined in a higher law and interpreted by a higher court over which even the government of the day does not have supremacy. Unfortunately, rather like reform of our blatantly broken electoral system, there seems little prospect of that any time soon, and so trying to protect those rights and freedoms as well as we practically can under our existing system may be the best we can do for now.
My arrival at most of what you’re talking about here as been through listening to the philosophize this podcast series on Sartre, Camus, Heidegger, Simone De Beauvoir, and the Frankfurt School.

Through my own twisted path of self-discovery, I think I’d pretty well stumbled into Nietsche’s concept of the child. Shedding most of society’s weight, but not turning from its value entirely and sinking into nihilism. Life is fun. Work literally feels like a game I’m playing each day. But my wife asked me what the meaning of my life was to be.

She said it felt haphazard and accidental in ways, and seemed to lack a cohesive directive. She was thinking more in terms of career aspirations, but it was a good question more generally.

I’ll spare you the explanation I gave her, but say that in a nutshell it was personal success with a desired socially positive impact. Probably fairly common.

The episodes outlined above made me rethink the level of impact I am responsible for. Prior to them, I thought doing some good and as little harm as possible was enough, if not exceptional.

Listening to them made me feel the weight of what needs to change, and the responsibility that I have to help bring about that change. It’s not a small undertaking, and I’m probably not even crawling yet, but it’s a game I’m excited about playing.

I haven't tried it recently but if kde has gotten better on Wayland it might offer this feature. You can set a compositing effect for this in x11 with it last I looked. But last time I tried kde Wayland it was far from stable.
Half the US? Citation needed.

Last I checked it was only slightly more than half the eligible voting population that actually voted in the presidential election.

Popularity is quite orthogonal to controversy regardless. Our current president is controversial, and it can be argued that controversy is the very thing responsible for the votes he received.
I've worked in one of these trendy tech companies with a bar. They attract exactly the same kind of employee. Generally a complete bellend twat probably privately schooled and educated on his parent's money with grand delusions about his place in society.

Both critbit and qp tries are wonderful.

I have pure-functional implementations of the central critbit algorithms in OCaml (https://github.com/tonyg/ml-critbit/blob/master/critbit.ml) and Typed Racket (https://github.com/tonyg/racket-critbit/blob/master/critbit....). I was surprised to find the OCaml implementation is competitive speedwise with the built-in Set implementation over strings.
I agree with the belief that "to whom much is given, much is expected," but the framing of "luck" bothers me.

Sure, there are some undeserving rich people and their stories are trotted out whenever we talk about someone earning a salary in the top 5%. But what about the doctor at a premier children's hospital who has done nothing but study and sacrifice for their first 30 years on the planet to earn a job that involves telling parents with depressing regularity that their child is going to die despite the best efforts of medical science? Those folks can have all the cookies they want.

Are many high-earners the beneficiaries of unearned privilege? Absolutely. Do the majority of these "lucky" people also work hard and add tremendous value to society? Absolutely. We should always try to help the needy but dismissing the very real efforts of the most successful (of which I'd not count my self a member) is bad practice.
My understanding is git’s origin was in reproducing and extending the functionality contained in Bitkeeper due to a crisis with the licensing. The apparent story of git being a exercise of Linus the 10X programmer digesting and re-imagining ‘SVN’ in 10 days seems non-historical. I think a good deal of the git vs SVN ‘10X special sauce’ was done by the company behind Bitkeeper, a tool already used for kernel source control. Linus built the core in 10 days because the problem was clear and the DVCS solution was already in use via Bitkeeper.
> Clinton Foundation scandal and the use of an unsecured private email server for classified emails? Probably not.

This is false equivalence. People like Clinton might appear corrupt for republicans and Dick Cheney might be horrible for democrats, but Trump is in completely different plane.

>workplace social scene (if not their job altogether) based on one data point that by itself means next to nothing is wrong.

What you think is the threshold where political opinion can become personal? When your family is deported?
That "saying" was never good. It's just an extremely simplistic way for right wingers to pat themselves on the back.
I don’t think this follows. Trump has very little in common with traditional “team red” politicians, and much more in common with European ethno-nationalist populism. I had no problem with Mitt Romney or John McCain, but consider the fact that so many Americans would vote for Trump to be profoundly disappointing.
The headlines are practically always either about centralized bank-like exchanges that hold crypto on behalf of others losing it, or about people losing money they put into a badly-written Ethereum contract. The number of situations that people lost properly-handled cryptocurrency (they didn't send it to the wrong address, they had a backup, and they used a hardware wallet or malware-free computer) with a mainstream client have been practically non-existent.

I was recently invited to an afternoon of board games at the residence of a wealth San Franciscan. I was invited to step over a homeless man at the entrance. I refused.

The Green Party is a far left US party.

Then have a way to contact the site owner without publishing information about them, e.g. a registry-operated e-mail forwarder? And for sites operated by commercial entities, requiring some level of contact information should still be legal.

To Save Our Infrastructure, Make Every Road a Toll Road
This is an amusing meme/complaint, but it is not really correct. In physics "quantum" does frequently imply very small, but its fundamental meaning is a "discrete" change with no intermediate state. Hence, it is perfectly correct to use "quantum leap" to describe a significant development.

P.S. There are now plenty of real-world quantum systems that are centimeter sized. Check "cavity QED".
The argument here is that people like you label anything you don't agree with as "intolerant" and justify social lynching of the ideas based on your likely angry or frustrated emotional assessment. This didn't start with James, although that's one of the more popular incidents. Disagreeing with operational policies that are based on politically charged ideas that we need to correct for the inequalities in outcomes rather than provide an unbiased and meritocratic foundation of opportunity is not intolerance. It's politics.
That's interesting - thanks for sharing!
And you sound like a populist. How one can have a meaningful debate when nothing you say is strictly true?
Also! As Kim-Mai Cutler pointed out on Twitter, Silicon Valley's positions are not new!: "Andy Grove gave to reproductive rights, Gordon Moore to conservation, HP was one of the very first employers to offer healthcare coverage, to hire Asian & African Americans like Art Fong & Roy Clay."

Silicon Valley has always been different from the rest of the U.S. The "H.P. way" was in its time a radical and progressive thing.
