It's not age discrimination if you accept and do not otherwise discriminate against young/younger candidates. There's a lot that goes into recruiting. Optimizing your job descriptions, creating multiple job descriptions, and targeting your ad spend are all things that can affect the age, race, gender, education level, etc of the people you reach without being discriminatory.

In fact, you should do this to be inclusive. There are a lot of unconscious things hiring managers do that remove themselves from the running of highly qualified candidates.

Want to remove yourself from consideration from young talented female developers? Create a laundry list of "requirements" even though you consider them "nice to haves." Also add plenty of trigger words to make your business seem unattractive.

Avoiding hurting yourself in the eyes of candidates you'd like to include is far from being discriminatory to other groups.

The point was that the system knew his too-long password and the password was correct, just being suddenly rejected on the frontend, unlike what support said.
Like any other situation where tons of big players with big budgets are doing a thing that seems stupid, it's because it does work, even if stupid, and because none of them want to "risk" being the studio known as the one that makes the "girl games."

Doesn't help that historically games aimed at girls are just... atrocious. Not even talking about the themes or whatever, I mean simply from a software and interactive standpoint, they're just godawful point and clicks.

Edit: Let me be VERY clear here, I'm not blaming girls or women for this AT ALL. Just saying that the shovelware-to-quality ratio is a LOT worse on the more girly end of things, stuff like the Barbie games, animal-centered games, etc. There is nothing wrong with making a game centered around being a model or whatever the hell, and you could probably make some pretty interesting ones with what are traditionally strong female interests. Just saying that a lot of what has been made is pure and utter dreck.
As the former-kids say, "Simpsons did it". We already had the news cycle over racial discrimination in ads.

"Someone even asked in the company's town hall Q&A why they would do this, and the CEO's response (most of us watched by web stream) was something like, "We are a technology company at heart, and every one of you is an innovator, and innovators love open spaces.""

Dammit, I absolutely hate when idiot executives spout platitudes like this without even asking the people they're talking about.

My mom ended up using her maiden name, as the health system she worked for couldn't accommodate a person with no middle name.

In Ireland, it used to be common to not have a middle name (although people were referred to by undocumented names, at least in my family). A few relatives who immigrated and were in the military or merchant marine were designated with a middle name of "NMI" because they had no middle initial.

Advertising is being used to pay for Facebook. Tracking is used to track userd and target ads based on that tracking, but that is not essential to Facebook's primary service of being a social network facilitator.

You can even go and turn off targeted ads yourself, proving that it is not essential.

The gp is basically saying psychologists can’t get the math right because most don’t like math and are just playing house to get publications. I am saying many do appreciate good statistics and go to bed worrying about it at night, and the lack of general reproducibility has more to do with the complexity of the field.

In most cases you have to find and convince a statistically representative sample to participate, and that’s so expensive and hard enough to often not be done completely, without having to consider that a statistically representative sample of individuals for many psychological phenomena is an impossible task.
Sometimes all you need are inexperienced drones. If you just need a developer to help write the next software as a service CRUD web app and you have experienced developers already, a drone with three years of experience may be good enough.
I use Alexa for listening to music. I rarely go into the app, but occasionally attempt to use it to set up a new music service, control the volume or track (if I am unwilling to shout down the music to tell it by voice).

I'm sure these people can be serious but I'm not sure they should be taken seriously (I assume that's what the parent was asking). Unless they're contributors one way or an other they're just 3rd party trying to create drama where there shouldn't be any.
"Once the tech is proven" is the big caveat. This all is a fun thought experiment, but we are nowhere close to the future where this tech is reliable enough to fulfill all of these functions in an economically beneficial way. These companies exist because the VCs have money to burn, and self-driving [X] is the hot trend of the day, but for all the dreams to pay off the tech has to prove out, and I see no evidence in this article that these companies are any closer to solving the real problems of confronting real-world real-weather real-roads autonomous vehicles than anyone else. Not to mention the additional gaps in service. These robot cars can't bring my deliveries to my doorstep; they can't improvise when mapping data is outdated or invalid; they can't understand or react when the product they deliver is damaged or wrong.

The only tipping point we're nearing is when people finally realize that 80% of a self-driving car may as well be zero percent, that the last 20% is way more complicated than anyone wants to admit, and that even to they extent they ever "work", flooding our streets with robot cars is not the ticket to utopia.
Not "plenty". A small fraction. The statistical biases are the point in these discrimination debates.

What Makes People Distrust Science? Surprisingly, Not Politics
The sad truth is that for all that it seems to be popular here, Bloomberg is a rag and it almost always shows. They start with an agenda and work lazily backwards from that. Fortnite is f2p, and massively popular, and a lot of women play games. Therefore, a lot of women play Fortnite, but that doesn’t support their foregone conclusions or let them shit out an article.

Welcome to Bloomberg.
Is it possible that there could exist a tool such that would make this task possible? What would it need to be capable of? Very precise manipulation of matter?
I think that measurement implies a quantity being measured, so it sounds like we agree on the main point. Managers can form opinions about who is effective, but the silly quantities they come up with don't end up being useful, because "mistakes avoided" isn't an observable[0]. You can't count events that didn't happen, yet such hypothetical suppositions are crucial to appreciating the benefits of experience.

The key thing that seems to be missing is $1 from how many people?

$1 from one individual involves a lot of overhead to complete a transaction (for your average person), but $1 from N people who each require a minimum of interaction can make much more economical sense. This can be multiplied by getting $1 from N people every X days.

Per the original question there's fairly little I'd be willing to provide to a single individual at $1, but in aggregate (high N, reasonable X) there's a number of viable options (mostly in the software realm).
Why don't you just delete all their data and not record it? Then you can legitimately respond that you don't have any of their personally identifiable information.

Also, you're going to either need to suck up the admin time, script it, or block the EU. Take your pick, there's not much point slinging names around. Chances are it's going to happen again and you may as well be ready.
Of course it's a fad. That doesn't mean it won't make billions of dollars.
Send someone an anecdote from my life every month. Not that my life is interesting, but it would be worth the effort from my end.
This is a major problem. There's no guarantee the data is real, and most of the people who have to sell their old data clearly don't have much buying power regardless.

But, imagine if they were selling a real-time feed of what they're actually browsing. Imagine if authenticity verification was possible by closed software and hardware (totally not pointing android here). Then the data would definitely be worth something. And the more "clients" you have, the more they're worth.
That's why I really like Yarn's "offline mirror" feature. It lets you cache the tarballs themselves locally. There's also a tool called `shrinkpack` that lets you do the same when working with NPM itself, but I'm not sure if it works right with NPM5/6.

I wrote a post a while back about using Yarn's offline mirror: http://blog.isquaredsoftware.com/2017/07/practical-redux-par...

So which group should we prefer, if we don't put our heads in the sand and pretend we are unbiased?
There is a cost to everything-private, which is that downstream consumers of your software hate you because now they have to get PRs merged for every little thing that you didn't anticipate. Actually it probably makes the problem worse because we're just going to patch your shit and access the private fields anyway.

The functional programming and especially the data driven schools of thought tackle the same problem more elegantly.

"That's not the same as not being allowed to know about the job, and the difference matters"

Unless they're also advertising in other places where those people might see the posting, no, the difference does not matter. Saying, "Well, you should have looked for it," when putting the posting in the cellar of the department with the lights gone and the stairs gone in the bottom of a locked file cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying, 'Beware of the Leopard' is not really saying it's on display, now is it?

Sorry too many obnoxious ads to stay longer than 5 seconds. Maybe put ads after you have a userbase?
I 'm not sure how well it will reflect in the court of public opinion if the EU's first ruling is that basically every website is not allowed to use ads to pay itself. There seem to be certain groups here in Europe who relish on this kind of "activism" . I m not sure how representative they are of public opinion, they are certainly very vocal.

Do we know how strict the Austrian DPA is ?
I remember finding this few weeks ago, and one thing I found lacking was a way for multiple users to add songs to the same queue... Is it possible now? Or at least are there any plans for it?

(in case it's not clear what I mean: IIRC, last time I checked, if you had multiple DJs only the songs from the first DJ would play, followed by all the songs from the second one and so on)
SCOTUS is weird.

I was an early employee of Aereo (the case mentioned in the article where Breyer went on about phonograph record stores), and I worked there when we were sued and ultimately won the appeal in the 2nd circuit, when we won in 1st circuit, when SCOTUS granted cert, and ultimately when we lost.

One of the strangest parts is that you have no idea when they'll issue your decision. They give a certain amount of advance notice that they'll be issuing decisions on certain days, but you don't actually know which decisions.

For a couple months after oral arguments, we had probably half a dozen mornings on pins and needles while we'd wait to find out if they're going to decide our case. It was really, really hard to concentrate on getting anything done.

Another fun fact: Clarence Thomas has only asked 1 question during oral arguments in something like 10 years.
This is why I say the first people on mars will need local copies of wikipedia. It's hard enough to bootstrap civilization without having to relearn everything and have enough people to have experts in all areas.
Only if the lawfulness for processing is based in consent rather than “the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party” - exactly what is considered a legitimate interest is only going to wind up being settled between Facebook/Google and a regulator in court.
Nope. FB has their own models. They used to allow DLX to sync and provide their audiences too but discontinued now.
That depends: will your users actually advance beyond the beginner level. If your complex design turns them off they won't learn and never advance unless forced to.

However it is important to remember that if your product is successful the vast majority of your users will not be beginners and so you need to make sure their experience is good.
As someone explained in a different comment above, modern exploit scripts will just rotate around through the entire database, trying different userid’s in series to avoid hitting rate limits per userid. Most criminals don’t actually care WHOSE account they hack, as long as they can get some monetary or data value out of any hacked account.

And, if you do a hard lock-out, that’s an easy way for an attacker to DoS your entire user base in short order.
Only recently -- probably in response to the GDPR.

I was showing a non-technical colleague only two weeks ago how doing a whois query on our company's .co.uk domain showed our company address and the individual responsible for registration. I just checked again now and pretty much all the useful info has gone.

I don't know what to tell you...

For break to be called explicitly it has to enter the loop body - there is no other way. The break only works in the loop body.

And the first answer is correct in the sense that it is not wrong (try it). The poll is simply flawed.

Tangentially related: I've never signed up on Facebook, and never agreed to any of their privacy policies.

Does that mean that, if any PII of me is found on Facebook, they are in GDPR violation?
From my testing with Python's base64, hashlib, and passlib.hash modules, SHA-256 prehashing and base64 encoding is only approximately one one-hundredths the total execution time of bcrypt_sha256 for a 4 KB "password". This is why slurping in the password during the initial state isn't noticeably adding to the overall execution time of password prehashing with bcrypt, and it is analogous to why PBKDF2, scrypt, and Argon2 all show constant time in execution regardless of password length- slurping in the password during initialization is a fraction of the execution time.
I am suprised zocdoc even allowed negative reviews. They rejected my slightly negative review. I think reviews have to to be approved by the doctors themselves to be posted on zocdoc since doctor knew what I wrote( without it being published) and hounded me to resubmit a positive review.
Anecdote, but I think it's mobile. My partner LOVES fortnite, and plays almost exclusively on the phone, sometimes on my PC.
That's fair. But discrimination in where you advertise (with the goal of saving 2/3 of your total cash outlay, rather than ruling out a group as a goal) is a whole different kettle of fish compared to discrimination in the HR process. People shouldn't think Facebook ads have anything to do with the latter.
There may be a great deal of uncertainty now, but things will eventually be settled.

If you are worried about being subject to a twenty million dollar fine, then you can probably afford to hire a lawyer to respond to the multiple warnings you will get before any fine is levied.
I once heard about a bug, diagnosed it, fixed it, and checked in the fix within a span of 15 minutes. The [younger] person who told me about it then looked at me like I was some kind of celestial being that inadvertently let their glamour slip for a moment--they were awestruck. Apparently, they had been struggling with it for a week. I didn't even realize it was a big deal.

That's what hiring older people gets you. But you also have to connect them with younger people.

And yeah, the corporate hype-ade gets dumped right into the potted plants now. But we don't exactly call people out on their dumb decisions, though, as much as factor them into future estimates. Telling truth to power gets you fired at most places, so you share your concerns only in private with your direct supervisor. Then you either polish up your resume again, or you work around all the dumb decisions that have already been made, plus the new one. If they didn't bother to consult with the expert before making that stupid plan, they're probably not going to listen to expert critiques after the fact. Always secure your own paycheck before helping out the company. They won't ever reward you for self-sacrifice.
Isn't the point of running your own instance that you can make your own rules?
Or is it because the larger fediverse exerts itself on instances?
However a software is not an isolated system.
The joke is really on the employer using Facebook ads to target a younger candidate pool.

Youngsters don’t use Facebook. And if a young dev is using Facebook - they’re certainly using an ad-blocker. If they’re not using an ad blocker on Facebook, do you even want to hire them?

Seems like if you wanted to attract a pool of young candidates now days, you’d target the parents of the said youngsters. The ones with no applicable experience, and who are still living at home “looking for a job.”

The ad should be to the effect of “tired of your good for nothing millennial taking up your third bedroom? Want them to move out? We’re hiring good for nothing straight out of college devs so as to lock them into a low tier pay bracket.”
Yea but that's the difference between knows-how-to-swim and being a strong swimmer. If she was a strong swimmer she would be in control of her body after something as trivial as flipping out of a tube.
Lehman's 2nd (increasing complexity) law addresses this. He defines an E-type system as one which is embedded in the "real world" and thus both influences and is influenced by it, and then claims that:

"as an E-type system evolves, its complexity increases unless work is done to maintain or reduce it" [1]

> Don't care about that sphere of activity, never going to do any of theses.

> Can you be more precise? What are the laws about that and should'nt it be Paypal job to support that? Never wanted to compete with Paypal either..

So what you're saying is you couldn't care less unless it affects you. Got it.

This is part of my point though. You're a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Who the hell doesn't know about KYC? You just woke up to the world and realized "oh shit, regulations exist! Unacceptable!". Yes, regulations exist, and this is just another one.

> Data is literally everywhere... that means GDPR apply to almost everything.

This isn't about data, it's about PII. And PII isn't everywhere, unless you're collecting it.

> Which is why you may see some people complains about being able to sell guns online but you will see much more people complains about GDPR.

No, that's not why. The reason why is that one has been around for a long time and people got used to it.
Agreed. It's very easy to setup a private npm registry using Nexus OSS.
