Oh of course; but I feel this kind of exploitation is closer to sexual assault than a consensual relationship.

Any relationship with a strong power imbalance can lead to this. Which is a big reason companies discourage this through fraternization policies; a sexual predator using your company as a hunting ground is a huge legal risk.

I was more referring to the situation where someone is working under say, a senior VP of another department. The lower status person would have an advantage over their peers in that they would have many more opportunities for personal social interactions with senior leadership as a result of their romantic relationship.

Overall, it’s best to be avoided. :)
That's the nature of a proverb. It's a concise unit of packaged wisdom. It's useful to have in your mental arsenal, like a function. Often it's useful because it contradicts the default wisdom.

Applied to the wrong thing in the wrong way, or on the wrong day (there are no rules)... it's wrong. This (ironically) makes proverbs and religion a bad mix.

Don't argue with the devil. Measure twice, cut once. Grab the bull by the balls. Great company at a fair price, not fair company at a great price. Show must go on. Show, don't tell. It's how you use it that matters. Who cares what colour the cat is. Quality over quantity. There but for the grace of...

If you like your statements airtight, you don't like proverbs. Airtight statements require too many words. We can find exceptions to all these rules.

EDIT/PS: reading over what I wrote, proverbs are interesting. proverb meta analysis required.

How to Make Failure Count
We exchange words that we learned the meaning of both literally (by dictionary) and by concept (by meaning).

We both are brough up in a context where we understand the meaning of "the desktop" as a metaphor for computer UI unless (unless you haven't learned that then you think it's the other physical desktop)

See https://medium.com/swlh/anatomy-of-a-noob-why-your-mom-suck-... where I explore that.

In other words, we are using language as a way to communicate experiences of phenomena (an apple or a painting or a movie) but our experiences will never be exactly the same and we will never be referring to exactly the same but it's good enough statistically to be "a pattern"

So yeah I guess I agree if I understand you correctly.
Pretty useful app.
I wouldn't say that it's either/or with respect to the person, so much as two types of activities/skills that interfere with each other.

Coming up with innovative solutions to complex technical problems requires you to be in the weeds, and think non-linearly (e.g. using intuition); while communication requires abstraction to (preferably) only the most important elements, and linear composition of the ideas into speech or text.
Interesting though experiment: Let S be the set of all humans. Remove any human from S who had at least one pair of ancestors (no matter how far in the past) that had an abusive relationship that is now deemed 'inappropriate' in large western countries. How many humans would be left in S?

Conjecture: Zero.

Does that say anything interesting about humans?

100% - except what’s extremely frustrating is the [willful] ignorance of the press in reporting on the issue.

Politics. People use whatever they can to take each other down at that level. Which is why they get paid so much. For their mindless ambition and to put up with each others mindless ambition.
"First, it is your responsibility as a learner to decide if something makes sense or not."

That applies only to the most trivial of subjects. Most complex things worth learning are so opaque to complete outsiders that it's impossible to discern good advice from bad. In the most complex domains it all appears gibberish, and the only thing that you can trust is that the teacher knows what they are doing, and that in the end it will all make sense.

Teaching things without any understanding of the subject is folly, and is actually dishonest. Just like portraying as a "healer" without any concept of the cure or the decease is dishonest and unproductive. Yes, you can help people without medical degree, for example in giving physiotherapy, but you really need to know your muscles, joints and therapies then.

The role of the teacher is holy and venerated, and for a reason.

Please don't make it cheap by saying "anyone can and should do it, and let students pay the prices".

Anyone can and should do it, but only after they have paid the price to master the subject in sufficient complexity to actually offer any advice worth sharing.

Informally helping colleagues is cool, but in that case you are sharing much more common context than in a semi-anonymous blog post.

Not just insider trading but getting caught so publicly is a bit problematic, especially if you're the SEC. I'm making a guess here but I wouldn't be surprised to here about a pending investigation into the incident that the board would rather distance Intel from before charges get filed.
For me it would matter what they are primarily used for, not just what they could be used for.

If my company is making a lot of its money selling weapons to people or groups that I have issue with, and Saudi Arabia is likely on that list (though I’d do some reading), then that’d be a problem for me.

And there’s only so much I’d excuse in others. If someone knowingly works for a company that makes “flesh-eating nano-machines” for third world dictators... I’m probably not going to want that person in my home.
> Moreover, it seems that the ability to provide fast (in seconds to minutes) analysis implies powerful computational ability and data network. Finally, the data acquisition right now takes more or less 20 to 45 minutes depending on the patient and the targeted area, which means the promised analysis quickness is not such a real pro.

In surgical pathology, the patient is still under surgery while a pathologist makes a rapid, preliminary diagnosis on fresh tissue. This can be done in under 10 minutes, but typically takes 20-30 in practice -- the bulk of which time is spent flash-freezing and sectioning. Pathologists have only a few minutes to review after prep, so any digital augmentation technology must run on the order of a few minutes to be of use in guiding the surgery. This guidance may be crucial because many tumors cannot be characterized ahead of time due to the lack of non-invasive diagnostic tools (the most promising is gene profiling of bloodborne cells, but that is very challenging due to low circulating concentrations). Tumor type and grade are a large factor in a surgeon’s aggressiveness-vs-risk calculation, and this is especially true in brain tumors where cognitive damage poses a quality-of-life risk which must be weighed against potential survival gains.

(not a pathologist, but I've done research, classifier, and software dev in the field -- very small, hands-on lab, so spent a huge amount of time in frozen section, OR, and with paths reviewing sections)
Leaving aside the supposition of utilitarianism, we don't know. We can only make educated guesses.
Ask HN: What does lower 409A stock price mean for employees?
My company ($500Mn+ at last raised round in 2015) offered me stock options at $4 when I joined in 2015 (so I have ~3/4 of it vested). The last round means my stock is valued at ~12 dollars a share.

They recently had a 409a valuation, and came up with a stock repriced at $2.5. Now they have offered current employees an option to reprice their stock, both vested and unvested, but with the catch that if you choose to reprice, you have to stay with the company for 1 year (if not, all stock gets relinquished).

We've been given a couple days to make a decision, but there is still a lot of uncertainty:

1) Does a lower 409A stock price mean that if we raise money again it's ll be at a valuation lower than the last round?

2) If we get acquired in next year (which seems likely given the flat revenue and feelers being sent out by CEO), then will the company sell for less than the last round valuation?

3) If we get acquired in the next year, then will the vesting perion still end once the year end or will there be a new (shudder) vesting schedule with the acquiring company?

There are not too many reasons for me to stay with the company over the next year (lack of product vision, slow growth, lots of leadership leaving etc.) but a big financial upside (if any) would definitely count as a pro.

I'd appreciate anyone with the knowhow guiding us in this since the CEO and board are all making it sound like an opportunity of a lifetime, and I'm concerned about how true this is.

Eh, I would say it invites just as much blackmail as it deters. Those policies add more negative consequences to the relationship being exposed — if there’s a chance you could lose your job because of a non-fraternization policy, you’ll be more motivated to pay the blackmail and keep everything under wraps.
AWS Storage Gateway Adds SMB Support to Store and Access Objects in S3 Buckets
There are plenty of clear-thinking, level-headed folks out there who, while they might have genuine concerns about climate change in general, aren't really buying into the doomsday aspects of it or that it's all caused by man. But those folks usually don't get much of an airing in the press or elsewhere, and if they do they're usually treated with derision. Instead the simpletons steal the show.

You know, at this point I don't know what's worse - that so many so-called experts seem to be spewing end-of-the-world nonsense, or that there appear to be so many folks out there who are all too willing to believe this stuff. I seriously question the qualifications and motivations of the former, and the mental health status of the latter.
I'd say it should be possible to circumvent the 'snippet tax' (which is what the 'link tax' really seems to come down to) by using a generated summary of the linked article instead of a snippet. It would be a good project for some student looking for a real-world application of natural language processing. A quick-and-dirty solution is already at hand: feed the snippet to a translation engine, translate it through a chain of one or two well-supported languages to end up with the original language again. Here's how it would look, using the first sentence of this text on Google Translate:

English -> German: "Ich würde sagen, dass es möglich sein sollte, die "Snippet-Steuer" (auf die die "Link-Steuer" tatsächlich zu kommen scheint) zu umgehen, indem Sie eine generierte Zusammenfassung des verknüpften Artikels anstelle eines Snippets verwenden."

German -> French: "Je dirais qu'il devrait être possible de contourner la "taxe de snippet" (que la "taxe sur les liens" semble en fait arriver) en utilisant un résumé généré de l'article lié au lieu d'un extrait."

French -> English: "I would say that it should be possible to bypass the "snippet tax" (which the "tax on links" actually seems to arrive at) by using a generated summary of the linked article instead of an excerpt."

Close, but not identical. Using different translation engines gives results which differ more from the original text at the cost of accuracy, e.g. feeding the French text to Bing Translate renders the following in 'English':

(Bing) French -> English: "I would say that it should be possible to bypass the "snippet Fee " (which the "tax on the links" actually seems to happen) using a generated summary of the linked article instead of an excerpt."

Not perfect but certainly usable.

You're implying that a prototype is a form of communication, which I strongly agree with.

I think the key thing here is to ask "What is the impact on other people if I just do the thing?"

In the case of building the prototype, its either "Well, now they need to spend time looking at the prototype", which would be the case no matter what communication medium you used or its "Well now JS spent 4 days doing that instead of what was on the roadmap. On the other hand, we have a prototype of X" which is a bit of a gamble and depends on what people were depending on you for.
I’ve always felt that the least convincing arguments (for me) in favor of libertarianism have come from the already rich and powerful. I’m sympathetic to many libertarian ideas; however, when an already powerful person argues for them I can’t shake the feeling that they simply want me to voluntarily give up governmental structures that are - probably - the most significant form of power I have access to (even if they are collectively possessed).

This would seem to sync with the <it’s not wealth but power> alignment of the superclass.

Hmmm,ok. So does this mean it's a critique on how language models the world instead of the world itself?

My axioms doesn't affect yours. Or a rat's, or a cats. Yet we'll all interact. Where does the interaction happen if not in an objective overlap, that which the subjectivity attempts to describe?

The words we use can described by other words, but other words do describe them.

One of the reasons for this proposal is that LTO is going to make C completely unusable otherwise. Suppose that a driver produces a structure that points to data buffers. Core code interacting with the drivers knows that drivers are of variable quality and checks that the structure is properly setup: if(x->buffer == 0)panic("bad driver" ) or something more sophisticated. Everything works beautifully until some driver is added with a dereference of x->buffer - which then defeats the guard in the core core because now the compiler " knows" that the x->buffer is not null. Separate compilation and inlining can't work reliably in this situation.

It's happened probably 10s of thousands of times in the past few decades... and some of those couples are now happily married. I personally know of a boss who married his secretary and a professor who married a student.

In some work environments, you are encouraged to get 40 hours a week, regardless of whether those 40 hours are necessarily put towards what are perceived as the "highest value" endeavors. So if you are blocked on everything else, why not take the remaining time and put it towards things you personally believe to be beneficial to the project? It is certainly better than sitting on your thumbs or asking people who are already busy what they think you should be doing.

- Boss / subordinate relationship was typically not considered problematic by both participants at the time.
