> Something that inexplicably has become taboo to many on the left

I think the more important split than left vs right is neuroscientist vs non-neuroscientist [0]. It's absurd to think that there would be no gender-related neurological differences, but also unlikely that there are large differences. The answer lies somewhere in between, and the more you learn about the brain, the more you realize how limited our scientific understanding of it is.

Also, seeing as how this article is pay-walled and not available on any mirror sights, I suspect that almost no one commenting here has read the article in full. Which brings us yet again to [0].

Which is fine. Do I really care about the security of Gmail? Yahoo? Hotmail?

For me the important thing is that all TLDs I care about support DNSSEC. So I can implement DNSSEC-based security locally. If other people want to play a different game, it is mostly fine with me.

The only annoying part is that browsers refuse to do DANE validation but firefox somehow is very quick to jump on the DoH bandwagon.

Neural Approaches to Conversational AI (SIGIR'18 Tutorial)
I think you're not quite right with the timeline here. IIRC, when "Thinking, Fast and Slow" first came out, the research was considered pretty settled and had had lots of replications. It's only a few years afterwards that the replication crisis really hit psychology in a big way, and especially priming.

So with the benefit of hindsight, yes, he presented faulty research - but he didn't (and couldn't) have known it at the time.

(Of course, if the lesson is that the entire field should be considered skeptically, I don't think I'd disagree)

This seems like a place where physical security keys could've be useful.

Any invoice would be expected to be signed using a physical security key. The University or a trusted third party would have a list of vendor keys, signed by the university's master key.

Any request to change account details or for payments would require a new signed invoice. Then any user receiving such an email could easily see if the invoice had been signed by a person who can cryptographically prove they have a key that is trusted to be in the vendor's possession.

I'll start by saying that I agree that determination can overcome a late start, but familial and society pressures can be really difficult to overcome. My wife comes from a small southern town and wanted to be a writer and college professor, but was constantly ridiculed and chastized by teachers and family because she is a woman, so they said she should just be a nurse, or get married and be a housewife. Her family refused to help with her college education, and her dad and mom would tell her that she should quit her masters program to cook and clean while I was at work. She didn't listen to them, but a lot of her female cousins do, and just get stuck in shitty marriages and deadend jobs, never doing what they want.

Progamming is also manufactured to be a "male" profession. It used to be that researchers were males, and programming was considered womans work, like doing data entry. When companies like IBM discovered that the best programmers tended to be anti-social males, and that females tended to leave careers earlier to start a family, big tech companies focused all their recruitment on males until progamming became a "male" job. It's similar to how light beer used to be considered a womans drink, but beer companies started running ads showing football players and other masculine figures drinking it, and now it's acceptable for anyone to drink.

They were using AWS. They have moved off of it within the last couple years because they now have the scale where it makes financial sense to build their own infrastructure and also to provide a better, faster service. They've had improved read/write + sync speeds since switching over to their own infrastructure. Having those checkboxes in a table showing that you have the fastest cloud storage works really well in B2B, which has been a big focus for them recently.

> Why is pharma an exception just because you added "absurdly high" to it?

Yes, precisely that. If you see the problem of patents as a cost/benefit analysis and not black-and-white issue, it's not surprising that the system may be socially useful in some sectors, but not for others.

As for alternative systems of funding drug research, this is a separate topic. I'd all for abolishing pharmaceutical patents if a different effective method of funding would be available.

EDIT and lest you think I'm a fan of big pharma business, I'm not. I abhor the trickery they pull with marketing to doctors, or flipping an inert fragment of a molecule and patenting it again. But I'm inclined to cut them some slack as the society needs new drugs.

Atlanta is finally hitting the tipping point, though. They've been building more and more condos and high rises along two lane streets inside of Interstate 285 for far too long.

The traffic is extreme now, even on a Sunday evening when I normally fly in. compared to back when I left, around 2013. It's so much so I generally take MARTA to the nearest neighborhood to my usual hotel and call an Uber.

Renting a car from the airport for 4 days costs more than than even taking Uber Black from the airport and back. Even then, it's faster to just take MARTA to the nearest neighborhood and grab a Lyft/Uber.

So much of Atlanta is now stacked to the point that if you can get away with it, Zipcars, Uber, Lyft, and MARTA can combine to be cheaper than the cost of owning a car.

There's a mood shift taking hold in the northern OTP neighborhoods. They see ITP folks not owning cars and spending that money on other things and they want a piece of that pie.

It's still decades out but the change is at least finally starting. Just hope it isn't too late. Most everyone I know is either in the process of or already has left with traffic being the primary reason they're leaving.
you can do it with cloudformation, although the SSL stuff might need automation but nothing impossible.

So the distinction is post hoc reasoning, not evolutionary explanations? I interpreted the OP’s comment as condemning the latter.
From the article:

One of the factors that prevents smaller companies from designing FinFET chips is development cost. Some estimates put the average cost to develop an SoC at around $150 million in labor and IP licenses. With N5 generation, these expenditures will rise to $200 – $250 million, according to EETAsia, which will limit the number of parties interested in using the tech.

Ouch. A $250M NRE cost for an SOC, really puts pressure on guaranteeing the volume of the part in order to recover any sort of margin on a part like that.

Pretty cool to see EUV seem to finally emerge out of the 'someday' status into the 'some now, more next year' status.

Possibility 1: Male-dominated fields discriminate against females.

Possibility 2: Those fields are male-dominated because they can't get into female-dominated fields.

Men do not work as teachers because the media has painted men as "sex crazed". Most mothers would be uncomfortable with having a male 4th grade teacher for their daughter.

Many women would be uncomfortable having a male gynecologist or a male nurse helping them deliver their baby.

> Doctors (high prestige, high pay) are about 70% male.

Sorry but this breaks your narrative: 60% of new MDs each year are female. However: female MDs are more likely to quit the profession or go part time in order to raise kids. Again, this might show anti-male discrimination because it is not socially acceptable for male doctors to quit work to stay home with the kids.

The above suggests to me that there's indeed a huge level of bias and discrimination, but not in the way you think.

> If the eye twinkles with delight at perl's simplicity

There are a lot of great things to say about Perl, but does anyone call it simple?
It seems to me that using money to enforce accountability is only something that works for people for whom money is quite a bit more scarce. You know, poor people, the middle class. You can really threaten someone's livelihood that way without resorting to prison.

When you're looking at big business? Nah. They're not threatened by it: if the fine is too high the law doesn't get passed or it loses its teeth, because it's still cheaper to lobby for leniency. So you get a maximum threshold for a fine that is still pathetic and even further is likely never to be used. If that doesn't work, the business is big enough to threaten the government in power with an even greater loss by opting to dodge tax or shift operations elsewhere. Most of this legislation can be hacked through maths and clever accounting, or ultimately you just pay the workers less and increase the prices.

Most businesses exist to make as much money as they can and you'd think that it would make it their most vulnerable spot, so you can hit them where it hurts. But it doesn't play out that way.

It's essentially a monumental legal cop-out because there's no use holding the corporate entity itself accountable, because the corporate entity is pumping out money to the board no matter what. And we even recognise it as such by referring to such companies as having limited liability. Somehow the owner of a small business can lose their house and car if they fuck it all up, yet those in charge of a much larger company have an incredibly cushy layer of protection when they can deal infinitely greater damage when they put money above all else, sometimes malevolently so. Surely those liabilities should be reversed and the small shop should benefit from the protection from fucking up?
That's an interesting implication. If they distribute the same cert so widely geographically, any host country could technically request it for "lawful intercepts".
I certainly did it in college and after (when I didn't have any money? sorry, I guess). Streaming services are all I need now. I don't need to own it, just listen to it.

Snapchat to become the mobile HBO via original scripted shows
It is relevant though, because the political calculus between South Africa and its neighbors changed with the handover to the ANC. There were a lot of skirmishes between South Africa's apartheid government and its neighbors that supported/harbored the ANC military wing. Asking why South Africa developed nukes in the first place and why it voluntarily gave them up can provide a useful template for denuclearization.

Some airlines make announcements, they are allowed on all airlines I have travelled on in the last 2yrs (when I started travelling a lot..)

I mean I don’t think I can prove that literally every airline does allow Bluetooth headphones, but see previous comments where the FAA approved Bluetooth headphones for use in 2013, maybe you could provide a specific airline which does not allow Bluetooth headphones?

A. You are missing my point.

B. Generally speaking, I don't take painkillers. Studies suggest that, in most cases, they drag out the problem.

So, to try one more time to communicate, how you comment on it matters. Comments like Welp, somebody is tired of their career... de facto agree that it is reasonable for society to react by destroying someone's career for asking such a question.

I get the impetus there. I'm highly prone to that same impetus. But long experience suggests it is counterproductive.

It's much better to make more reserved observations, such as noting that this is a controversial topic, people have had their careers ruined for trying to talk about it, etc.

Anyway, I wasn't trying to shoot you down and [additional polite noises].

No they're not; people in the U.S. buy a heck of a lot of bottled water, despite the fact that potable water is available basically anywhere for free.

And try this: shoplift a bottle of water from a 7-11 and when the cops come, tell them that water is free anyway, and the 7-11 has a big multiple markup, so it's not really a crime. See how that goes.

I mean, by that standard, the entire legal system, not to mention having state police departments vs random mob justice, are also pretty new things. Do you think that we can do away with those too cause they're new?

Do you give any credence to the idea that part of the reason the last few hundred years have been incredibly productive for humanity (both in terms of general economic welfare, but also art), is partly because of things like the patent/IP system? I'd be happy to know why not, if not.

This demonstrates a break down of democratic order IMO.

If the president is incapable, as Nixon was in your description (and in https://www.alternet.org/drugs/huge-role-alcohol-has-played-... linked down-thread), then there's a procedure wherein the VP takes over, isn't there? Not performing this procedure is deciding to contradict the democratic will of the people.

Now, I can see how you might not want to publicly remove the president in a military crisis situation; but the way it was done seems completely wrong, just assuming power without due process, countermanding the president whilst they remain the president .. (as Nixon was CinC surely that's reason for a Court Marshall?)

Did the people ever react to that, have anyone punished? Or are the USAmerican people happy to have a VP secretly assuming power, a Secretary of Defence that chooses when to obey orders, etc?
Really? I think you are maybe being pedantic about the meaning of the word “crime” if it doesn’t apply here. Overstaying a visa certainly duck types as a crime.
This is my anecdotal experience. Obviously, other people have other experiences and the reality of the whole is probably different. The simple fact that there are more males than females in a job is not evidence of a bias perpetuated by sexist men.

It isn't about Ballmer vs. Nadella.

On a discussion note, I'm so confused by this. Who wants this? How is this going to help them? People want to watch TV shows shot in vertical video on their phones? It seems like a desperate move by a company that knows it isn't doing well with its existing platform. How is it not?
