In the current legislature, there is one former software programmer MEP and a Linus's uncle, who is not a programmer but knows a bit about software.

There's also Julia Reda, but she is really just a filesharer and a politician.

As far as I can read, the author makes points based on the data he analysed. The jabs at gender studies near the end were somewhat misplaced in my opinion but they do not contain the core message.

It should be easy enough for someone opposing this man's view to take the dataset presented about and disprove the conclusions made.

Claiming statistics like "amount of citations at time of hiring" are offensive is by no means helping anyone's case.

I hope the author will be reinstated quickly because I see no reason to act revenge upon him just because one disagrees with their conclusions from a statistical analysis. This is exactly what the peer reviewed system should prevent.
Ah the good old days, with "in DoubleSpace nobody can hear you scream" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DriveSpace)

Back then we did it because RAM was expensive, and there was rarely enough.
Today we use it because RAM is plentiful, and swapping to RAM is much faster than swapping to disk.

To be honest, I can't really understand how come there are still people who, when confronted to a world that has been irremediably changed by humans' use of technology (for worst, they say) still believe that an improved technology used by the same humans will make things better. I'm looking at these quotes from the article:

> The reason I say that is that if you look at the challenges that confront society: climate change, sustainability, mass inequality — which is getting worse — diseases, and healthcare, we're not making progress anywhere near fast enough in any of these areas.

followed by

> Either we need an exponential improvement in human behavior — less selfishness, less short-termism, more collaboration, more generosity — or we need an exponential improvement in technology.
Time for everyone to open up the tin can where we keep our opinions. At this point there's a passive background level of gender politics which seeps into every conversation at a constant rate like clicks in a geiger counter. Depending on the facts and narrative, the same people and publications hold up their news articles as vindication. "look look! sexism is still a big deal" say team sjw on this article. A few months back it was "look look! sjws really are being unreasonable" as the demore controversy unfolded. metoo became a bit of a wash, with points going to both sides. Kavanaugh sits on our tounges right now as we try to decide if his controversy falls into gender politics or just normal politics. No minds are changed, just different subsets of people get slightly quieter for the 2 week news cycle. Its the exact same mechanic as the gun debate. One group waits for school shootings to say "ban assault guns", and the other group waits for trucks to plow through crowds to mock the first group with "ban assault trucks".

Call me privileged or whatever, but this whole thing is a sideshow. It moves votes and sells papers and nothing more. I wonder if this is what it felt like in France during the Dreyfus affair.

I agree that is what it looks like from the outside to people who have no experience at it, but I doubt that is what it looks like at all from the inside. Just as from the outside a programmer might look like a sweary toddler who keeps you from messing up his toys out of pique.

I may have told this anecdote before, if so here I repeat it:

There was a Friday meeting at a place I was consulting at, the C-level executives were outlining the way projects would run to the end of the year. It seemed in some ways less than optimal, they then in a rare bit of insight into their processes said 'I know this looks less than optimal but the reason why we are doing this is ---blah blah blah 3 sentences of finance technobabble'.

It was quite clear the suboptimal process had been chosen to maximize available moneys for projects due to accounting decisions and specific legal regulations. Although exactly how eluded me.

I was pretty sure that most of the people there understood as little on the matter as I did but everyone did that expression on their face to signify they did understand that people generally use with me when I describe how stemming/decompounding works and why this means we will have to take another way in structuring our data for the search engine.

But yes most of the time I would look at those people and say that they don't do anything.
Even then, it doesn’t need to be a direct order from him. It’s an organization that continues working without him.

Contracts (both smart and traditional) are first of all logic constructions. And thus:
1) this logic can be implemented with vulnerabilities, no matter in paper or software form;
2) this logic can be bad by design, allowing undesired behavior of contractors.
These are not problem of smart contracts only, but problems of any kind of contracts. They are much older than any software. And they need to be solved (at least partially) since people need contracts for the economy to function.

You may want to look into Cupy. It is replicating the Numpy API on GPUs. It is not too complicated but fun to add missing functions. Picking easier parts first guides you closer and closer to becoming fluent in GPU programming.
How about the reverse problem?

The cost of mindshare. Everyone grouping up on a major programming language or framework. It's a bit irritating when people often choose their language or framework because of the size of the community rather than actually evaluating alternative languages or frameworks first.

Take React for example. There are some great alternatives to it, especially inspired by react but simpler & cleaner DSLs. But people just keep with React anyways because everyone is already there.

OpenGiver.com helps non-profits in Africa become more effective by raising money for them via crowdfunding; where they provide feedback to all donors as to how and when donations are spent.
Secondly, we helping them measure the effectiveness of their programs so they don't just give out money and aid without knowing if they are making any measurable impact.
Funny that I get downvoted for asking precisions... That's HN now!

Due process and presumption of innocence.

As far as US judicial system is concerned Osama and Pablo are innocent.

It is always better to try people in court then kill them, because it limits the chances that someone innocent can be killed.
"Oh man people are really mad at this person, therefore _the person must be right_"

You think that better arguments are going to convince people with this kind of reasoning?

Loads of people all over the place are just wrong. It happens all the time. And there isn't a moral obligation to respond to some wrong opinion over and over again.

People who think we need to have rational debates with flat earthers are not people who will be convinced by much. They are the 20% of people who think Bigfoot are real.
> And if we're speaking about monetary inflation,well, where did all the money come from in the first place to make housing so expensive? Yes I know, when one house sells in a neighborhood or city everything is revalued, but when you've been at it for 10++ years and have had significant turnover of the entire inventory, this excuse begins to run thin after a while. If GDP growth is more or less flat, and there isn't negative growth in other areas like consumer spending, where is all the money coming from to execute the transactions?

I've struggled with a similar question. Where does the money come from? The US GDP has increased ~500x (unadjusted for inflation) in the last 100 years, this means each dollar has to be transacted 500x more frequently on average than it did 100 years ago (assuming a fixed supply). How does this work?
While I use notmuch-emacs instead of Neomutt and mbsync instead of OfflineIMAP I prize this idea simply because we need "easy access" for newcomers to spread knowledge especially since actual universities do not teach anymore "real" computing solution preferring the "commercial" way.
Because the sanctifying aura of procedure is a cornerstone of the State’s monopoly on *legitimate violence.

And because, in many cases, that procedure actually reflects real values to which the leaders of government have actual commitment even beyond the pragmatic motivation to be seen as committed.
Essentially every descriptive claim he presented is sensible and well-evidenced.
Same for Saussure, whose most-read work was a compilation of his notes by his students and colleagues after his death.

Holy shit. We're fucking doomed.

The SWAT team just can't promise that it won't treat every phone call like a life and death situation.

Gee. Maybe the SWAT team should only barge in after regular cops are confirmed to have made contact with a genuine emergency, that has been validated and confirmed as unresolvable by other means?

What if the SWAT team just didn't react to phone calls?

What if other criteria were required to be met, before dumping a pile of battering rams and automatic weapons and snipers and helicopters onto a problem?

Maybe just expose regular police to emergency calls first? Maybe it's not Die Hard? Maybe Hans Gruber isn't taking hostages? Imagine that.
We agree on last part of the sentence that's for sure.
If they can't come up with counter arguments, then certainly that person is right.
while I agree there are some real arguments, this is not what I would call a scientific presentation. It starts acceptable, but page 19, 22 are just unnecessary and have a connotation.
Page 24 seems a bit conspiracy-theory-like.
The comic on page 25...that's not scientific. It frames your opponents as angry grown-ups denying young girls the chance to shine in science!

I think on the other pages are are also phrases and formulations that don't have a phrase in scientific presentations. CERN is full of smart people and they will find a way to deal with this issue.
I confirm this.
Should be, but sadly, they aren't.

I suspect the suspension is a desperate attempt at trying to contain PR damage to the organization.
The point is that author is doing the same thing as lot of Apple fans do: tries to rewrite history to show that Apple invented something.
English is clearly not his first language. I'd forgive the awkward poeticism.
It's just overwhelming how this sexist narrative is globally accepted. Being a man was never easy to begin with, but things like that are really discouraging.
> Science needs an environment free of politics.

That's unrealistically idealistic. Science depends on things like funding, ability to voice unpopular opinions and to research them etc. These are all influenced (if not entirely determined) by the zeitgeist and science doesn't exist independently of that.

Two fronts. Firstly, people will be prevented from exploring avenues that don't really fit into the zeitgeist. Secondly, people won't be interested, inclined or knowledgeable about ideas outside the zeitgeist to sufficiently explore them.
I know that nobody is asking for alternatives, nor my opinion, but Brave browser is great. Cool project
I originally downvoted you, but now I think I see where you were going with this.

It is possible in at least one instance.
In China you’re talking about those in power actively hiding important public information from those without power. If you are one of the ‘without’, then there’s very little you can do to challenge official viewpoints.

A Facebook bubble can be similarly truth-distorting, but your bubble is ultimately a reflection of your individual choices, and it barely takes a couple of clicks before you can find conflicting information or alternate opinions.
I especially like the last paragraph:

> “I don’t think he represents the majority view,” Covi said. “There were a few men who were there but they didn’t support his view.”

After all, none of her friends stepped forward to object that she wasn't a witch. Before or after we burned her!
Current tests show that XS is just catching up and not surpassing the year old Pixel 2 camera quality though.
I reported some bugs as early as the 2nd and 3rd Developer Previews of macOS Mojave, but they’re still not fixed in the final release.
I wouldn’t disagree with your first statement but HN tends to skew to a bunch of I’m a know it all attitudes. I’m just saying, things are not always as simple as they appear and while you can have an opinion on the matter does not make you authority on the subject. I forget the term for this concept but the news is always wrong depending on who is reading it.
I don't think the world has only been made worse because of technology. But good and bad are always a question of perspective.
> arguments should be fought with better arguments

I find it surprising that you can follow up a comment that has no substance beyond invoking a vague emotional response with this.

If you think arguments are the way for constructive discourse, perhaps you ought to present some arguments yourself.
I think he had personal reasons for giving this talk. He links to a presentation given by Anna Ceresole (http://www.weizmann.ac.il/stringuniverse/sites/stringunivers...) at the latest STRINGS conference in 2018 on gender equality. In that presentation they explain how they created a European Network of female string theory researchers (virtually unknown to me, never seen a paper by them, whereas in the US there are a lot of very good female string theorists Cvetic, Silverman etc.) with the explicit goal of increasing the number of females in permanent positions. The chair of that EU funded network Silvia Penati apparently hired Anna Ceresole for a professorship that Allessandro Strumia also applied for.

There is a stark difference in the number of citations Ceresole (~3000) and Strumia (~30000) have, and Strumia has roughly double the number of first author papers. So on the face of it this seems like a very bad case of unfair / biased hiring practice.
> Science needs an environment free of politics.

I believe if he'd given the presentation, minus his "cultural marxism", it would have been ok. IMHO he brought this on himself by bringing in politics.
A stable company with good people will run itself. There may be execution issues, but the good people should be able to handle those.

The value-adds from a good CEO are outstanding strategy, positive corporate brand creation, and investor/shareholder relationship management.

The first two aren't hard in the bureaucratic sense, but in the creative sense. A lot of CEOs are terrible at them - see the long list of companies run into the ground by very poor decisions.

The last one is helped a lot by having the correct class background. It's nightmarishly hard for outsiders, and can be anywhere from not hard at all to equally nightmarish for insiders.
Have a look at https://zenkit.com . We use it for almost everything in the office. It's cloud-based with different data views and you are able to build your own database.

As you mentioned, there are comment sections for each task/item with mentioning. Reminder and due dates can be established. Change the sorting with a few clicks or use the search function.
Of course, but a fact does not make the opposit case.

It's not mine either, but I know where this kind of rhetoric comes from.

I don't mean to belittle his work. But his point would come across much clearly without the last few slides. Let's not make this an idealogical issue!
This is best workflow I've used so far (but usually I had separate branch for really unrelated changes).
Physicists have been the canary in the coal mine for societies.

From being expelled from Nazi Germany for Jewish physics.

To being dissidents in the USSR for their anti-nuclear stance.

To being killed in the cultural revolution for being bourgeoisie collaborators.

To being painted as communists in the US for their anti-nuclear views during the second red scare and their their pro-climate change views more recently.

Somehow I don't see this ending well for gender studies.

It's annoying how new languages sometimes become popular in spite of not adding any value to the development process.
I think part of the problem is that new languages open up a new market which incentivises developers to create open source libraries
that will become the foundation of the new ecosystem; it's a sure way to become a 'rockstar developer'; if the language succeeds, you succeed with it; the odds of success are much higher
than having to compete with other libraries and frameworks within a well established ecosystem.
Just wanted to say thanks for making code intelligence part of the core product, Sourcegraph has been wonderful!
An image blur is a good place to start! Read horizontally from many pixels in parallel, sum them up as parallel as you can, normalize, write back. Repeat for vertical blur - and here it might be best to rotate the image by a quarter of a turn so vertical is horizontal!, because memory access is usually faster that way.
Actually, smart contract DOES override existing law - if the subject of the contract is fully on-chain. In that case you can engage all the courts and police in the state, still, they won't be able to undo your transaction. Obviously, this does not apply to the example with PS3.
Getting up early is only a sign of discipline if you need to get up that early. Getting up early with little sleep is self-sabotage: Getting up early when you are more productive later in the day is ignoring self-knowledge.

If you simply want to get up early because you are more productive that way doesn't require more self-discipline than staying up late for the same reasons. There is nothing "urgent" about it - you can very well do the same thing waking up at 8am or even noon (admittedly, noon has its drawbacks, but 8 or 9 am gets folks by with the greater world most times).
He does bring up valid arguments and deserves a scientific response.

The people who complain about this and instead of refuting his points instantly cry out make themselves look bad.
Somehow, I feel like the old, unregulated internet was better. I wonder if that is just nostalgia or there is something to it.

With an unregulated internet, any internet user has to take care of their own privacy and anonymity. Barriers for entry for new websites and services are very low. Data breaches and abuses of data can lead to users being concerned about giving their data to tech monopolies, which can enable competition.

Regulations like GDPR arguably make users complacent and lowers their guard, as well as strengthens the tech monopolies by adding to their moats. Would Facebook have been able to displace Myspace in the current environment? Or Google displace Yahoo?

The internet was doing fine for decades with minimal involvement from governments - why change things?
> but Brave browser is great

For what platforms?
Are you comparing inflation adjusted house prices against unadjusted income?

The % of take home pay people are putting, on average, in to housing here in the UK (ok, different economy) has gone from something like 20-25% in the 1950s to something like 40-50% now.

I myself live in London and put 47% of my take home pay in to rent. That's without property related tax. I'm in the top 5% of earners in the land and can only afford a modest ~45sqm apartment. If my rent goes up next year and my income stays the same, I will have to consider a longer commute.
The emulator sucks btw, it can't handle alt+tab or ctrl+pageup/down for navigating away.
I started my engineering career as a front-end developer when being front-end developer meant slicing PSDs to HTML trying to figure out the best way to implement crazy glassy and shadowy designs without transparent PNG support in IE6.

Starting using CSS Modules "properly" with custom built UI components library was definitely the biggest single improvement in easiness of delivering stuff I've experienced across the "whole stack", from the hosting situation, DBs, through popularization of MVC on the server and client side, micro-services to react itself.

Please do give a try. :)

One rule of thumb I passed on my friend learning working with CSS Modules: Never share styles between components.

Sometimes it's very tempting but instead try to compose your components in different ways.

You might want to share style or create mixin for white box with a border and shadow for 2 very similar components. Creating WhiteShadowedBox component even if it's a div with 3 lines of CSS is fine and will save a some headache later. Of course needs a better name. ;)

It's fine to use variables and mixins for "style config" like colors, font definitions, margin scales (0.8rem, 1.2rem, 1.6rem) etc but in my experience not much more.
I have a good provider that gives me what I pay for, yes. I understand that many countries have a borderline third-world internet situation, but that has very little to do with the problem you were presenting. What you're talking about here is essentially that Netflix has the lobbying power to make sure that it's services are put above other services in countries vulnerable to that kind of manipulation. I believe that instantly.

I can understand what you're talking about, but I think it's important to appreciate that as an end user I don't really care about what tech words I can tell myself about why things look bad. I care that one thing looks bad and the other does not.
