Here in Sweden we have a rather good statistics over employment as part of tax collection and it is public record.

Men and women are employed in the same rate, with 85% of men working in gender segregated professions and 86% of women. As such it is rather simple math that is indeed supported by the actually numbers for each profession that about half of the professions are dominated by women and about half is dominated by men, with a small minority of 14.5% that has a minimum 40% men and women in them (The official minimum line for gender segregation).

You want a top 10 list? Last time I check the highest segregated profession was midwife at around 99.7% women to 0.3% men. Second highest is dentist nurse with 99.6% women. Third highest is stone brick layers with 99.4% men. Forth to ninth was all 99% and are listed as mechanics, tinsmith, carpenter, concrete construction worker, electrician, and plumber. Then its pediatric nurse at 98%. (2012 data)

If one goes by the 30 most common profession in Sweden (ie most employees per profession group), female dominated professions are 17/30, male dominated professions are 11/30, and equal is 2/30. In that list the top groups are truck driver, construction worker, secretary, mechanic and nurse. (2004 data)

Not sure how well google translate work but you can look at http://www.duochjobbet.se/nyhet/nio-av-tio-har-jobb-med-ojam... and http://www.scb.se/hitta-statistik/statistik-efter-amne/arbet...

Now if any of those professions have programs to address gender segregation is an other question, but since most of those have around 90-99% gender segregation one can guess that the efforts are not that effective if they exist.
You seem very sure of yourself in this. Perhaps read up on the topic more than you already have. Read Nudge and other such books by behavioral economists. There are experts in neuroscience who disagree with your view. It’s worth considering how this is possible.

Think of all the small 1-2 employee businesses / mom & pop businesses etc that take credit cards. They have no dedicated IT person. They’d be lucky to have a dedicated LAN for payments (a PCI DSS requirement). Increasing the barriers to compliance for these people is not a good thing. In practice they will just close their eyes and pretend nothing is wrong, or they will just pay the fine charges by the banks for non compliance— which doesn’t improve your credit card security at all.

You can’t tell all these small businesses they can’t take card payments, and you can’t make an already tough job harder, more complex and more expensive without an associated drop in compliance.
I just made this choice (learn fsharp or oval). initially I was leaning ocaml for the same reason as gp but then I tried a simple scraper (make a get request and parse the HTML) and couldn't get it to compile because of cabal hell. well obviously not cabal hell but dependency hell where I had to keep changing installing and uninstalling versions of cohttp and the compiler. in the end I said screw it and installed all the .net/mono/f# stuff and it worked flawlessly the first time. I don't understand how language developers don't prioritize package management in 2018 - it's simply a deal breaker when other languages get it right. yes I realize ocaml and haksell have a different perspective on dependency resolution than other languages but then they should ensure that it works (and yes I also realize dependency resolution is np complete).

Multi-process Node.js task scheduler made easy
Some years ago I created a lib named node-cron, but it has a problem, when a blocking I/O is made for example a loop, the main process is blocked.

Is this useful?
Market value for engineers in that area is $160-200k. Should OP apologize for declining $100k?

He went through an long and arduous interview process, to be rewarded with an offer that is less than 50% than his objective market value. Should he be grateful?

IBM wasted his time and their own.

I don't get this strange reluctance to accept that us engineers are finally commanding decent compensation. You don't see CEOs shaming each other for declining low offers.

Everyone gets paid as much as they can. Why are we engineers supposed to be grateful for anything thrown our way? Are we morally obliged to race to the bottom?
Thank you! Yes, I love the tree too, I need to shoot it again after the color correction (and experience not over exposing the image).

And so what? It does not invalidate my point, especially compared to the other salaries in the area. Also you did not include the cost of living there, which is probably very high.
There's an ice cream shop of this style in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (because of course there is) if anyone wants to try it out first hand. It's called Republic of Booza.

It was worth it for the experience but I prefer normal ice cream better. The texture is ... unusual.
I'm sure the marketers made a big deal about it being "fully homegrown", but the engineers were like "that's a ton of duplicated effort, lets start with an open source browser and work from there."

It will be interesting to see if they keep merging in changes from the head of the open source browser or if they continue to diverge over time.
Indeed. I get roughly 38K gross and pay nearly 1K for an apartment at the moment. Silicon valley is a horrible place and I wouldn't want to be found dead over there, but the salaries are really fucking amazing, even the ones people scoff at.
The importance of working your core Muscles
Disclaimer: not an IBM employee here; I have only interacted with current/past employees and these examples are anecdotal:

One fresh-out-of-college software engineer spent the first year or so working on nothing but PowerPoints and watching "agile training" videos to improve his score on some kind of IBM social/point system. He moved to actual programming when he relocated to a different office. Then, one Friday, a manager came to him and said his project was shut down, and that he was starting on a new team that following Monday.

When I interviewed at Google, the woman I talked to at lunch (CS PhD) had nothing nice to say either, and she worked on Watson which seems to be their saving grace. She made a lot of the same critiques of the work environment there, also adding that Watson is mostly just a marketing stunt for non-technical customers.

Yep -- formatting for style is great iff it’s done rigorously and consistently on every commit (which is what a presubmit check is good for). Ad-hoc reformatting mingled in with real changes plays havoc with change tracking.

Ideally the format would never change at all. An occasional change-the-world update is a reasonable compromise, but it should be done as a single commit with no logic changes.

I can't speak further to the historical context, but everything I've read about federation/modern/consensus democracies suggest that bicameralism is a benefit (ex http://wikisum.com/w/Lijphart:_Patterns_of_democracy).

Again, that's not saying that's what they were considering then, but also read some of the Federalist Papers (Madison in particular) and how much they were weighing factions/balance of power into some of these solutions.

i agree regarding the widespread overstaffing and the ubiquitous e-loafing, but the issue is more complicated than that.

it's possible to not do very much work at work but still suffer from the bad lifestyle factors:

sitting all day, being constantly stressed regarding stability, being constantly reminded of your social status (or lack thereof), not having enough time after work to do errands or take care of children, not having enough unbroken chunks of vacation time without having to answer an email or do any work, not getting paid enough to comfortably cover all the bills, being reminded of how hard it will be to make ends meet if you get seriously ill, etc.

even if these excess employees were actually doing necessary work all of the time, these problems wouldn't go away. they might even get worse.

The similarity in both needing to have stack trace does not make them very alike yet. They serve similar purpose and for that purpose the stack trace serves value to the developer.

Returns go straight up the stack only if you choose them to. Caller doesn't have to propagate errors and return immediately, it can hold onto them and/or process them in the natural place they occur, they are just values. The returns from your function can be found with "grep return".

Exceptions, by default, break the natural control flow unless you wrap everything with try/catch. Even then, a lot of constructs won't be very natural and you really will have to get out of your way to identify the source of the exception, which very frequently is more important than it's type.

Almost definitely. I'm seeing this move toward pragmatism across medicine though. E.g. even my infant daughter is getting recommendations from her pediatrician that don't adhere strictly to the AAP or WHO guidelines.
I believe this article is talking about domain fronting, not the use of encrypted SNI. With domain fronting, you connect to one service, say, amazon.com and put amazon.com in the SNI field. However, once you have a secure connection, you then tell Amazon that you really want to talk to some other website and Amazon routes the connection appropriately. To an outside observer, however, it just looks like you are talking to amazon.com and the only thing that can be done to stop this would be to block all the servers that handle that site.

> IMHO the main reason not to install a conventional metro line is Musk wants to demo something going 150mph, and I've never seen a metro line going that fast.

It may seem counterintuitive, but higher speeds mean less throughput. Most metro systems are concentrated on trying to move high numbers of people, so bumping train max speeds to 150mph just makes no sense. The sweet spot for speed appears to be around 50-70mph, which most metro trains will do when they're cruising between stations.

But anyways, anyone who is complaining that local mass transit ought to be going 150mph is someone who hasn't looked at why local mass transit can't go 150mph or is someone who doesn't want the "mass" in "mass transit".

Yes, the world is complicated. :) But it would still not be a born with trait. Perhaps some propensity to accept religious beliefs might be a born with trait.

People can also say something and think a differnt thing. Also while someone may identify with Islam, it could mean very differnt things in real terms, as you can see from various sects and interpretations, and real world behavior of believers. So what is really being protected?

Also, clearly if you are a ISIS member, your religion is not a protected trait despite many of the memebers being quite Islamist, idealistic and devoted to the ideas much more than many of the regular muslims. Your attitudes toward religion are suddenly also not viewed as unchangeable, if you look at various deradicalisation programs. Not by anyone, mind you, there are people who think that all ISIS memebers should just be killed, and that that's the only way.
agreed.

it turns out that when people are treated like capital, they depreciate, much like other forms of capital.
Most of the comments are not pro China but highlight the brazen hypocrisy of getting worked out about China in the face of all encompassing surveillance currently run by the NSA, GCHQ and Google, Facebook and others which is a far bigger and ongoing threat to democracy and citizens here. China's actions are limited to China.

There is hardly any activism against the invasive surveillance of SV companies or protests against the NSA. This forum itself has its fair share of apologists for surveillance capitalism. So where are the protests in front of Google and Facebooks campuses and in Washington?

So if people don't care about these issues at home how can they care about them in China? This is simply not credible or serious.

China's actions don't impact people here, your governments and companies here do. In the absence of any mainstream activism, just singling out China for outrage and anger is duplicitous and comes across as motivated more by politics than any genuine concern for the issues or people impacted.

And using human rights for cheap points ultimately trivializes it and risks bad actors who have no interest in human rights pushing their own agenda. So better for the Chinese to fix their country, there are 1.3 billion of them, and for us to fix ours.
The challenge in question is just a jpg of the logo of ruxcon 2004. The password for the next level is presumably steganographically encoded in it. The challenge is much easier (and perhaps only possible) given the original image, but the logo is no longer on the internet. After scouring web archive and using all Google fu at my command I found some instances of the image but all in different sizes/dimensions.

The name of the level is "the properties of a mirror" which hints that you need to find a mirror of the original site in order to solve the level, and I think that the mirrors are no longer online.

Note for anyone unfamiliar that this level is not at all representative of vortex - all the other levels are all hard core exploit implementation and not stego challenges. In general I don't like stego because I feel that it is more of "try to guess what I'm thinking" than solving interesting challenges.
Right, so, checks and balances.

Server-side you have the check.

Client-side you have a hook that runs gofmt when you commit, and in principle you’ll never hit the server-side check.

Just in case something goes wrong -- and something somewhere always goes wrong -- you don’t want the server to silently rewrite stuff on your behalf.
Well, the analogy to Masterpiece is that Apple is not compelled to list any given podcast.

And, applying the Masterpiece ruling narrowly, Apple just needs to be careful that a pattern of discrimination against a protected group isn't established in its decisions.

But that's all legal reasoning. The original point is that people should be allowed to speak and the best response is better speech, not censorship, even if the censorship is private.

And Apple is the least interesting of the bunch since they're not really a microblog platform or social network. The coordination with the other platforms is probably the only concern there.

What about Maxthon? I remember trying it back in the day and it was pretty decent, better than IE of the time, anyway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxthon
TLS 1.3 still has SNI. SNI still transmits server names in the clear, just like always. This enables e.g. blocking a specific hostname without blocking an entire CDN, particularly now that CDNs are trying to stop domain fronting.

Some people were working on encrypted SNI during TLS 1.3's development, so that TLS could encrypt server names sort of like how it encrypts all later traffic. Encrypted SNI didn't make it into TLS 1.3.

> Should we give "X" their own legislative house so the "Y" majority doesn't run roughshod over them?

Yes. Though that method is more inefficient than the ones we already have.

The Constitution's purpose is the suppression of the majority. At every end it is designed to impede 'progress'.

Three houses of government, a bi-cameral legislature, voting rules which require large majorities of representatives, voting rules which require large majorities of states, differing term lengths, and "hard" limits on federal power (admittedly this section of the constitution has failed).

If we wanted the majority to get what they wanted we would just vote in referendums.
