> Your commitment to the masculine is probably merely a habit, but you've inadvertently highlighted one of the problems exacerbated by the teachings of the average business school -- self-interest at any cost is acceptable, because it's an inherent property of capitalism.

I'm not committed to anything, would you have preferred I chose a woman to be put into the role of (from your perspective) "the villain"? What about a transgender person of color, would that not completely change the power dynamics of the situation? How about literally a red herring that somehow made it through business school?

The point is, if you want to just push an ideology into the heads of students in order to "fix capitalism", without any regard to the actual socio-economic environment, you're doing them a disservice and you will fail at your goal. These people will not survive in the market based on what you teach them.

"Self-interest at any cost" is a naive caricature of capitalism. You're probably indoctrinated too much for me to make an impact here, but just keep in mind that if you only ever fight a straw man, you're never winning an actual battle.

> Self-interest is fine and dandy, but the example you're citing -- dispense with a hundred people in order to obtain a half a million dollars -- is not an overly productive practice for most societies.

Unfortunately, you weren't even able to perceive the scenario as the dilemma that it is: In this scenario, either 90 or 100 workers will be fired for economic reasons. The question is, does the manager give up on his bonus to save 10 people for one year, voluntarily. If he does, it may have an impact on morale, boosting productivity, possibly leading to even higher long-term gain. If he doesn't, he immediately gets to be more wealthy. There's no obviously right or wrong answer even from the point of self-interest.

Contrary to what one might like to believe, productivity is not the same as production output. If there's a surplus, production must be decreased to the point where it meets demand, not well above. Laying off workers then can improve productivity, because revenue relative to cost increases. These are basic economic principles that exist even outside of capitalist systems, especially socialist systems (used to) struggle with this issue. As far as society as a whole is concerned, widespread misallocation of labor makes everyone poorer, because it creates a discrepancy between what is produced and what is necessary.
I think one of the biggest culture divides in baking is the "I love baking, it is so scientific and exact" crowd versus the "Everything makes bread!" crowd.

I personally use the big measurements (flour, water, etc) as a rough guide so that I'm in the right ballpark on consistency and don't need to add too much one way or the other to get it right, and usually ignore the smaller measurements entirely (salt, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla ...) and pour what looks like an appropriate amount in my hand before dumping it in the mix. Fewer dishes to wash that way :-)
I have a potentially controversial opinion on code reviews - that they have a low enough signal-to-noise ratio that they provide minimal value, unless they are conducted using a formal but living checklist/process. I strongly believe that code reviews have to be goal-oriented or they become vectors for excessive opinion airing (read: bikeshedding and holy wars).

I've spent way too much time getting feedback that I either disagree with and end up arguing over, or feels completely pedantic or time-inconsiderate (e.g. loosely-specified comments about code style during a tight deadline), that could be eliminated by a few things:

1. identifying and documenting the value that the code review is intended to provide.

2. constraining criticism to those that actively provide the intended value.

3. where a decision point arises based on reviewer/author disagreement, create a consensus decision within the team and document it in a standards doc so that the debate never needs to be had again.

In my experience, when this process is followed well it leads to a feedback loop that accomplishes the following:

1. Generating a consensus-driven standards document based on the primary values of the team.

2. Creating a code review process that is exclusively aimed at "linting" new code against the standard, and raising exceptions where the standard does not provide a "correct" approach.

3. Ensuring minimal discrepancy between code reviews coming from different devs.

The process doesn't even need to be that formal - just 2 github wiki pages, one for the standards and one for the code review process.

Judging from the palette, it looks to me that they're getting the language prepared for Android or more possibly Fuchsia.

The idea of looking at things as a call tree (or graph) rather than a plain old stack is how Schemers think about things. We specifically avoid terminology like "stack frame" and refer to them as "continuation frames" because we don't tie the abstract feature to how it is implemented. A branch in the tree is an invocation of call/cc.

These recent complaints about structured concurrency in popular languages to appear to shadow the complaints about call/cc vs delimited continuations. More info here: http://okmij.org/ftp/continuations/against-callcc.html.

Bricking the phone works against law enforcement by only allowing raw access to the data. Even if Clear worked correctly, law enforcement couldn't open apps and see the data in the correct context. They'd have raw data files full of indexes, hashes, and cached data. Worse, apps would start to encrypt data on the client specifically to avoid Clear.

The only significant change between plain key escrow and Clear (bricking the phone) would defeat the usefulness of Clear.

Well, this makes sense somewhat. Files will be edited incrementally to the point that nothing remains from the original. If you follow your strategy, the original style remains there until a large rewrite.
If you make a point to always follow the official style, then at some point you'll automagically have a consistent codebase.
Interesting, thanks. I'll see if I can grok this from the link you gave.

I do have one follow-up question though: I was under the impression that clock trees contain repeaters in the form of CMOS inverters. Wouldn't those have dynamic leakage which the transmission line stuff doesn't account for?
The real answer here is that it's proably never going to be cheaper to buy a bank with a working it platform as merging terabyte worth of actively changing data from an underdocumented 1960 noSQL database into a new greenfield product is the hard problem almost nobody have succeeded at doing without massive problems and unexpected delays and costs.

In reality what happens when a bank buys another bank is that yet another middleware layer is introduced so that frontend system can access data from both of the old system not that one system is discarded while the other survive.
Why would anyone assume that our species existed for 300k years without making art? This makes no sense and seems to be the claim that must be proven, not vice versa.
Why should we care about our privacy?
Every body always advocates for privacy but I have yet to found a real answer to why should we actually care so much about our privacy especially if the problem faced is real advancement or creating a society where we are all safer.
As an example we have many laws which limit the police and government in the why they can get evidence, many of these laws are in place in order to protect our privacy, why shouldn't we allow the police to get what ever information needed in any way they need ( as long as they don't hurt any one in the process), this could create a safer environment for us all.

Just as a side note I am not talking about giving up our privacy for private corporations to make profits in (I.E Facebook, Google etc) but only to causes which can improve the human race and society such as DNA reasrch, police and othets
From memory this part of the M1 is a 'smart motorway', which means that the hard shoulder is sometimes for breakdowns, but sometimes a running lane.

The speed limit on that stretch can vary depending on how heavy traffic is, as high as 70, but sometimes 60, 50, 40 or probably even lower.

Nice but I wish the author had called out the impact of globalization a bit more strongly. The structure of a Mall or Walmart takes economic output of an area and sends it somewhere else. That mechanism is that people buy stuff for cheap at the department store, a fraction of that money stays in the form of salaries and taxes, and the bulk goes far way to distribution houses and factories somewhere else. If you don't have something pumping money in, it eventually all drains out.

When you collapse the entire flow locally so a local factory/tailor making clothes being sold by a local merchant. Then there is a more immediate return of the economic product. Customer buys a suit, that was sold by a store that bought it from a manufacturer, that bought the fabric from a local textile mill, all of which use machines and staff and other factories and tool shops.

I am not sure how you balance this sort of thing out.

>The closest approximation I can find seems to be a city with a population in excess of 1 million.

You must not have put much effort into the search. I have been in many small towns that have had thriving downtowns and vibrant communities. But I've also been in many dead ones, where the local economy was decimated with the demise of a major employer. Maybe that's more the rule than the exception where you're from.

Ask HN: Ways to Monetize Browser Extension to Pay for Hosting?
I recently wrote a Chrome and FireFox extension called KiwiBox [1]. It's a simple extension to quickly and temporarily bookmark pages you may need to come back to in a few days, but perhaps it's pages you don't want to permanently bookmark. I want to add sync functionality to KiwiBox, but sync storage has a 100 kb limit, not large enough to store screenshots. So, to add sync I would need to store data on a 3rd party host. In general this is easy to do, but hosting costs money, so to make this a sustainable proposition I would need to monetize this extension somehow in an ethical way. Any ideas?

Yes, this made me think of the story about how a biologist would identify the function of parts in a radio, posted here some time ago, [1].

> A more successful approach will be to remove components
one at a time or to use a variation of the method,
in which a radio is shot at a close range with metal particles. In the latter case, radios that malfunction (have a “phenotype”) are selected to identify the component
whose damage causes the phenotype. Although removing
some components will have only an attenuating effect, a
lucky postdoc will accidentally find a wire whose deficiency will stop the music completely. The jubilant fellow will name the wire Serendipitously Recovered Component (SRC) and then find that SRC is required because it is the only link between a long extendable object and the rest of the radio. The object will be appropriately named the Most Important Component (MIC) of the radio. A
series of studies will definitively establish that MIC should be made of metal and the longer the object is the better, which would provide an evolutionary explanation for the finding that the object is extendable.

Nah, that's just another effect of the same underlying cause:

Sexuality is something that religions have very restrictive rules about, and anything that doesn't fit within the bounds of those rules is considered immoral. Which is why homosexuals were and still are oppressed, and which is also why pedophiles are oppressed essentially just like homosexuals once were. Being a pedophile is widely considered to be a moral failing, just like homosexuality once was (and by some still is). This taboo leads to people not rationally looking at the actual facts of the situation, not considering the actual consequences of what is happening, instead anything that is in any way associated with pedophilia is seen as equally objectionable, which in turn leads to a general lack of distinction.

"Child porn" is just a generic label for "terrible immoral stuff done by immoral people involving the idea of sexual practices involving children" in the public discourse, and a terrible label at that, given that it either tries to use a negative view of pornography to evoke an emotional reaction to an essentially unrelated topic, or trivializes the experience of abuse victims whose agony is documented by suggesting that it's in some way similar to consenting adults producing erotic works for the pleasure of other consenting adults to look at. It's a bit like using the label "child horror movies" for snuff videos depicting children.

Console to figure out a new service (it’s a quick way to see all the different configuration options). CLI for some actions not supported by the console.

Then once we’ve figured out how we want to use the service, we script the deployment with CloudFormation and put it in an Ansible playbook. This allows us to rebuild everything from scratch, and that’s actually what we do for each deployment. Also makes it super easy to set up a new environment (e.g. to onboard a new team member).

We briefly considered Terraform but the learning curve seemed steep - should we give it another shot?

I can see how it could seem that way, because I skipped some details.

There's a spectrum of these behaviors; some are outright doxxing but most aren't, and there's widespread disagreement about what to call them. When I said "pursuing personal details" I was referring to this spectrum. "Extraneous details" or "history" (edit: added above) might have been more accurate, but this is not the important distinction.

On HN, we've learned that when one user follows another's trail and comes back with ammunition to discredit them with, it lowers the discussion quality in a way that bodes ill for the community. You can see that clearly in this case; when someone finds four different places to post like that, they've crossed into something we don't want to become a norm here.

Whether the details were public or not doesn't change much. The real issue is that this genre of online shaming/war does more harm than good to a community like HN, which is trying for a different value system, so it's better to just keep it out of here.

Yes, and this is how the normal state should behave. US messed it up big time by giving control to the corporations, but if you do some thinking: managers get their rewards based on some time based results. If they achieve better "money bases" results by screwing up customers or anyone else, they still profit. The corporations don't care if they poison half of world population as long as they profit. Make another war, few hunderd thousand killed? No problem, we made money. The only institution that can stop this insane logic is state and EU Commission is really suprisingly good in acting in good of EU cityzen, quite oposite in regard to what US is doing - acting for the corporations. I am sorry for US. People there got gang raped without the lubricant, but they are still too much brain washed to figure it out and are still living in fantasy world of "american dream", we have a saying "nation will write its own desteny by themself" and it fits for the US nicely, but I think years od dumbification are paying the toll.

He was given the way out of stating it as a Hypothesis. He simply did not want to AND insulted the other party.

Polish barszcz is not traditionally made with cabbage - it's at heart a beet soup. Some variants of the soup made in Ukraine or Russia may contain chopped vegetables and sour cream, but in Poland warm barszcz is a consommé-style soup. There is also a cold variant served in the summer called chłodnik (a literal translation of which would be something like "cooler") which has sour cream in it.

Cabbage soup is called kapuśniak (from "kapusta" which is cabbage). Żurek is a fermented rye soup often called "white borscht" on North American restaurant menus. Another Polish soup worth trying if you find it on the menu and like sour flavors is zupa ogórkowa, which is a dill pickle soup.

Well, I think we have next to no information about language development for 195,000 of those 200,000 years, so we don't a much reason to believe anything.

When I lived in Berlin I never drove a car. Never needed one. Public transportation + walking was always a viable solution. Now I live in the U.S. and wish I could get by without having a car. My job is too far away and Uber/Lyft too expensive to be a viable option. High frequency bus service means "every 15 minutes" where I now live. It's a joke compared to Berlin.

When I look at American cities/towns now I think they are mostly ugly. Way too much space devoted to mostly empty parking lots. Very few people out walking or otherwise enjoying the outdoors. Drive, drive, drive. It's depressing sometimes.
