It appears that this is not settled case law, with the most recent case in the 9th district court (basically all of the west coast) ruling that at least public officials have the right to have affairs with coworkers: https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/Police-can-t-be-fir...

Other appeals courts have ruled otherwise, but the 9th district court has had a couple of precedents in the past, according to the article.

Personally, I think it's an interesting issue. If the company fires the higher ranked employee, they are probably losing more value.

It's also interesting that I think everyone would agree that it would be absurd to fire any employee if they were a married couple - yet absent the (mostly religious and tax related) binds of marriage, there's some moral judgment cast upon the participants. It seems so puritanical and absurd. What if the two employees got married before anyone found out about the affair? I bet they'd be protected both legally and in terms of moral or business implications.

It appears many states actually prevent firing based on marital status: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB111041550490175318

From that one, "One reason is that about 20 states and many cities ban employment discrimination on the basis of marital status. If a married employee who has an affair is fired and an unmarried employee who has an affair isn't, the fired employee in those states conceivably could claim illegal discrimination, attorneys say. Thus, many employers turn a blind eye to marital cheating."

Is there a simple explanation for Keynesian economics.
That sound and the CRT screen brings back memories...
Not exactly what you're looking for, but this might help: https://www.cloudping.co
Sorry, but that is a very simplistic way of seeing it.

For example:

If you date someone who works for you, and you have multiple subordinates (as most managers do), and you rate / evaluate those subordinates (as most managers do), and you rate your partner higher than another subordinate, you are opening the company up to legal action that you discriminated against the other subordinate due to your relationship. That costs the company money to defend and more more if they lose, so they have every "business" to tell you not to.

There are many more examples.

Not a water expert, but here's where this reported price ranks from some googling:

Tap water in California: $.0005 / liter [1]
XPrize winner: $.02 / liter
Water truck delivery in CA: $.01 - $.05 / liter [2]
Desalination: $.05 - $.30 / liter [3]
Wholesale bottled water: $.30 / liter [4]
Walmart bottled water: $.68 / liter [5]

If $.02/liter is right, this is close to the water truck in pricing. Also it seems like you could ship this with solar
to disaster areas instead of flats and flats of bottled water and be up to 15 times cheaper. It could be an alternative to desalinization near the ocean where there is lots of humidity at 2 to 15 times expense. This seems useful.

Tap water is awesome, btw. It's 100 times cheaper than all these options.

I also know her, and camped with her at Burning Man many moons ago.

I don't think the account related in the article in any way obscures the truth, and it doesn't soften the sharp and inappropriate edge of what her interviewer did in the least.

I, myself, occasionally run across subordinates at Burning Man, and I make a very strong effort to interact with them in the same way I'd do at work, with the exception of offering them water bottles, extra ampoules of sunscreen, and electrolyte packets.

There is less than zero excuse for that guys' behavior.

Thanks for your question. We have both a Firewall and a traditional Antivirus. They work separately.

The firewall blocks bad bods, hack attempts like SQL injections, XSS, CSRF and more.

The antivirus scans for known malware (we have a big list of malware definitions), but we use AI and Machine Learning and the Antivirus learns from previous detections and is able to act alone. The script is able to automatically remove the malware once it is found.
It's not just a possible explanation, it's the most obvious one. It's a well understood phenomenon that results in exactly what he's discussing here.

Some individual poor persons will, yes. "The poor", as a class, will not.
> I'm inclined to think that the general public underestimate contemporary art and the art world overestimate its superiority over the more conventional works.

I really like your framing of this and agree wholeheartedly. I think it really comes from contemporary art’s focus on abstraction and meaning within context. The combination of focus on abstraction and meaning while requiring the viewer to understand the context in which a work was made makes it very inaccessible to all but those who have the time and knowledge to develop that understanding from. This makes it very inaccessible to general audiences. Alternatively, so often the depth of the meaning/context and the effectiveness of the abstraction are quite underwhelming in reality but overly celebrated by the art world.

It's apparent from reading the article that Google had a widespread and pervasive sexual harassment problem with senior executives freely doing whatever they wanted - that the current chief legal fellow is still there (and got several promotions to the top) after having an extramarital affair and child with another employee in the legal department says everything - he knew all the consequences and how things could turn out and he did it anyways.

But these are just temporary exclusions that needs to be renewed every three years, right?

Can someone explain why three years? It feels like it is not even worth the risk of "breaking" the laws in 4 years not knowing if they're renewed or has been revoked.

I see this kind of thing all the time, "even" in the NYT and similar first tier news sources.

I assume that everything these days is written in one pass, and no one pays for copy editors anymore. It also wouldn't surprise me if "words per month," based on how fast a professional is expect to be able to type, were part of annual reviews, in keeping with the general corporate trend of abandoning hard, personal, contextual reviews in favor of easy, no personal responsibility "metrics."

But that's all a guess, I'm not in the industry. All I can say for sure is I see it all the time.

I had never heard this 'law' before, but it makes total sense.
In college, alcohol was effectively prohibited in the dorms. Off-campus parties were often broken up by 10 or 11pm. So prepartying became extremely important in order to attain the requisite buzz, particularly when you factor in weak party beer and long lines at the keg.

Of course, you had to secretly store potent enough alcohol, (potent enough to easily hide in quantity) and consume it quickly, to limit the likelihood of being found drinking in the dorms.

So, everyone bought 20oz soda bottles from the vending machines, knew their personal taste/tolerance in terms of how much soda to consume from the bottle, before filling it back up with their choice of rum or vodka, to be consumed quickly before departing for the evening.
I'm hesitant to bring this up, for lots of different reasons, but people I know and mostly trust, who work in places where they should be in a position to know, all tell me the same thing: "Never buy Huawei anything, for any reason".

A person in a consensual relationship can still abuse or exert power over the other person in the relationship. Based on the what the women said, she didn't want to do that in the hotel room and Rubin "convinced" her to do it. Perhaps he said he would hurt her career if she didn't. Or, perhaps he said he would help her career if she did. Either way it would have been totally inappropriate.

> Tesla set up DRM to artificially limit the driving range of their cars until you pay them a ransom to simply let your car drive longer distances!

That's a lie. Yes they have DRM in place to artificially limit the range of certain models, everything else you said is mischaracterization, misrepresentation, and lies.

They saw opportunity in offering different ranged batteries of the same model, however the cost to produce two different battery capacities was too high. Instead of hiding this fact from the consumer, they instead offer it as an upgrade path if you one day have a need for the additional range.

This sort of thing is done all of the time in manufacturing to streamline costs. They even do it with their Autopilot system, all Model 3s come with the same sensor package but the feature itself is unavailable unless you pay to unlock it.

There's an advantage to doing this in that you do not have to guess at what consumer demand will be because you can lock/unlock features as needed in software based on consumer demand.
Well I guess our disagreement is that the world at that point had the dynamic where any electronic item was to be confused with a bomb. I was alive in 2007, some LED lights arranged in a star would certainly not have screamed "bomb" at me, and I would not have expected anyone else to have been scared of it either. If she was carrying around a clock like that one kid made, maybe, but even by 2007 movie standards a bomb would at least have a countdown timer of some kind

I'm imagining her wearing something like https://www.flashingblinkylights.com/jade-led-christmas-tree... with a little less production value, if that can be mistaken for a bomb then those people better stay away from office christmas parties

Could it be related to the increase in jobs in general and specifically blue collar jobs under Trump presidency? Just the general sense of optimism and that someone care for those people might have helped after years of Obama who couldn't care less about the opioids and meth problem. The general sentiment was that it is stupid whites who did it for themselves and since they are "privileged" it is their fault. I have seen Anna Kasparian from the Young Turks express this sentiment clearly in the election night and I believe this is a sentiment that is quiet prevalent among the political elite.
> I don't want a DIY arduino-hacked ...

This is a professional service being done by the same professionals who you're paying to actually replace the suspension, brakes, brake lines, or other life-critical components. If you can't trust them to make a good judgement on how or whether to reset tamper detection, then how can you trust them to replace your brakes or suspension in the first place? Surely the idea is that some company would develop and test a process for resetting the tamper detection now that it is apparently legal, and then this tool would be provided to mechanic shops.

> and you take full legal responsibility for any accidents this might cause in the future.

Do mechanics take full legal responsibility for any accidents caused by replacing your brakes or other things? I'm sure in cases of egregiously negligent behavior, they could probably be sued, but most of the time it would be very difficult to prove that they were the cause. I don't think this would be any different.

> Nobody should tamper with critical control systems.

If you believe this, it sounds like you buy brand-new-only cars the moment your existing car turns on any kind of fault light. But, assuming you're okay with them swapping in a $2500 replacement instead, do you believe in this idea so strongly that you would pay 10% to 20% of the vehicle's MSRP any time a fault triggers? Keeping in mind that a vehicle's MSRP has very little to do with its used market value. $2500 could easily be 30%+ of a vehicle's actual value at the time that this occurs.

I get where you're coming from, but I think the strength of your language is out of proportion with the suggested repairs.
Isn't it just the usual logistical curve scenario? Rapid growth to meet the desired need, until market saturation and users are dying off faster than they can be born?

From a creationist standpoint all people are equally likely to become addicted so you can use economic/cultural data as a proxy for susceptibility, however in the real evolutionary based world we have been brutally selecting for non addiction susceptible genetics and small scale culture for a long time, so at some point you'd expect a crash in addiction rates.

Something like cig smoking can't be bred out because the addicts die horribly in their 60s long after reproducing, but every teenage heroin overdose for the last couple decades is a permanent culling of the herd of people who can't handle their chemicals responsibly.

From a cultural standpoint I'm old enough that "Heroin just is not something our people do" works pretty well until it doesn't anymore, its interesting the study quotes seem to imply a grasp at any straw other than making heroin culturally unacceptable again, which ironically is probably the only thing that will work long term.
The pH shift from adding more alkalinity via silicate weathering shifts the equilibrium to favor more CO2 dissolved as carbonate in the oceans. That is why I do not worry about captured CO2 going back to the atmosphere in less than geological time: the shifted chemical equilibrium will favor more dissolved carbonate.

As a small scale example, consider a beaker of distilled water freely exposed to the atmosphere. It dissolves a small amount of CO2 and becomes slightly acidic from carbonic acid. Now add sodium hydroxide -- it becomes strongly alkaline. Wait again and the pH falls again (though not to its original level), due to dissolving more carbon dioxide, which is deprotonated to form carbonate anions. You can keep adding hydroxide and absorbing more atmospheric CO2 for quite some time, until solubility limits come into play. Even though it is just a solution at equilibrium with the atmosphere, and not a precipitated solid, the sodium carbonate solution will not spontaneously separate back to sodium hydroxide solution in the beaker and CO2 in the surrounding atmosphere. It takes thermodynamic work to reverse the carbonate-heavy equilibrium.

They actually (mostly) fixed this recently (in no small part due to being beaten down pretty hard by iFixIt a few years ago filing a crazy number of new exemption requests ;P). Now existing exemptions have a streamlined renewal process where the opposition needs to demonstrate that there was an important shift in the underlying evidence during that time.

I won't go to Burning Man, and my SO won't go back after going with our friends due to the culture around the event. There are lots of great people that make an effort to go to Burning Man, but I have no desire to hang out with a good portion that are essentially mindless techbros, if I want that I can go wander over to Fremont, South Lake Union or similar.

The pervasive "fuck you, got mine" among this crowd is toxic, similar to lawbertarians espousing their beliefs. In the context of Burning Man these attitudes don't make sense, but this demographic does not reconcile their attitudes and that of what they participate in, all that matters is others have said they should go.

Yes, they should, but they are not, and realistically cannot be.

Inflation statistics are almost useless in calculating quality of life for this reason.

They calculate an average over a population. An example of why this is silly, is that the average 40 year old both has lower personal inflation _and_ can weather inflation much more readily than the average 20 year old.
Wow, so the entire leadership of Google/Alphabet is in on this. Including Page having had multiple flings with subordinates... is this for real?

Out of curiosity, have you actually tried the latest version of Angular to see if your preference does hold up? It’s come quite a way since the bad old days.
This would create a new inline function on every render though, which potentially might cause rendering performance issues.

That's a failure to reduce, showing that the reduction by substitution is an incomplete evaluation strategy at best. The Y combinator works under call-by-value and other strategies; you can stick it in production code, if you're so inclined.
The fact that inequality exists is not the problem, it's the severity of the inequality that is the problem.

Take an extreme example - out of a population of 1000 people you have 1 person owning 99% of the wealth, with the other 1% distributed to the other 999. Does that seem like an efficient, properly operating economy to you?

Obviously there is some balancing needs to happen, the trick is figuring out where the fulcrum should sit for the most efficiency.

I don't think it's quite the same, is it?

In the Reagent example, you declare the atom outside of the component function, and that atom would end up shared if there were multiple instances of the counting component.

In the react example, each instance of the component would have its own separate state.

Reagent will let you put the atom inside the component, too, so you can do something very similar to the React example. Just wanted to point out that the two examples you've got now do different things.
