Yeah in retrospect I should have done this, but to be fair I was just frightened by the realization of what might have just happened here, and wanted to simply leave the area. Another thing is that I have no proof to distinguish between an overpriced fix and deliberate cable cutting.

Now I'm way too far from Serbia to report it.
You mean by default? because here by default if the purchase is <= 20 no pin is required, but this is something my bank at least allows you to remove so you get asked the PIN always.
This sort of fear-based hypercorrection, a misguided but not necessarily ineffective form of risk avoidance, happens in many walks of life. The same calculus is at the root of non-lower-class whites (as well as nearly everyone of high status) in the US avoiding neighborhoods with blacks and latinos. To them, the visible race serves as a proxy to all sorts of unpleasantness they wish to avoid, purely on correlation, and even as racism has moved more and more towards being publicly unacceptable, the habits of racist behavior remain because, unfortunately, of their perceived utility by those who apply them.

The utility function here is similar. The men in these situations have a lot to lose because they're in positions of power, yet live in relative obscurity without the social support system afforded to well-known public figures. They may or may not engage in behavior that's actually sexist, and they may or may not engage in behavior that's sexual harassment. False accusations of sexual assault, by all indications, are rare, and any accusation is reputationally costly to accusers in many ways. Data about false accusations of sexual harassment is harder to come by, as it's rarely treated as a criminal matter. But the statistics don't matter when the drastic outcome is so dire: if any of these men were to be accused, the current political climate ensures their careers and reputations will meet a swift end. To many, this is an unacceptable risk that requires mitigation.
For the record I'm pretty sure my implementation uses a very large amount of memory in both cases as I'm not doing anything to avoid it (like escape analysis).
With respect, your comment and the GP comment seem to be two different things.

(1) Stop work when the immediate path forward is clear, so there is less friction to restarting.

(2) Stop work when encountering a puzzling obstacle, with the expectation that ambient thinking will suggest a path forward.

I try to do both of these things. I'm more successful with the second.

I first read about (1) in a book on writing technical papers, where the advice was to NOT write until you've become confused about the way forward. Rather, leave off so you know how to begin on the next writing session.

The right strategy could depend on the application!
But...

Trump is the representative of America right?

Hitler was a representative for some political party right?

And the UK is representative of its people right?
Credit specialist
My name is Roofner Shapiro and I am a real estate broker in WA. I frequently need credit repair services for my clients. I went online to search for a good credit specialist to always refer my clients to and after careful scrutiny and consideration, I learned about a specialist whom everyone keep testifying about his good job. For the past couple of weeks, he has helped 12 of my clients raise their credit scores to very high 700s which enabled them qualify for buying and renting houses of their choices. He is fast and quick to deliver and doesn’t charge much for his services. Here is his contact; CREDITSPECIALIST4@GMAIL.COM, +1 912 388 3132, you can reach him if you need your credit cleaned.
..because there isn't a "these men." There are individuals mostly concerned with themselves and their friends (also daughters etc.) and there are institutions.. The institutions just want to avoid trouble, and "changing the human X" is not a viable tactic.
> Enterprise customers don’t give a hoot about quality, just compliance.

This is pretty much spot on.

We use a ton of AWS's services because AWS is already on-boarded for our enterprise. It's way easier to use a AWS feature than to on-board a specialized vendor.
The judicial “beyond reasonable doubt” process is far from perfect, it has many shortcomings and is only suitable for the justice system because we’ve decided that it’s much better for someone guilty to walk free than for someone innocent to be incorrectly punished. This doesn’t work in smaller environments, like an office, because if the guilty walks free then the innocent person — the victim — suffers directly by their continued and unavoidable presence in their life.

I have served on a jury in a sexual assault trial and after what I’ve seen of the process first hand I would rather work for a company that doesn’t roleplay as the judicial system and instead believes the victim and uses the preponderance of evidence approach for determining guilt.

Most people guilty of sexual assault (in the literal sense not the legal sense) will never face any legal consequences because of how the judicial system works: I would never want to work in an office where the same was true.
> Adding friction is an awesome hack.

That would give it too much credit.
Cowardice, defined here as the lack of personal integrity in the face of occupational hazards, can sometimes be rational and sometimes be emotional.

Some of the men are demonstrating a rational argument (albeit based on flawed statistics), but they're using it to justify running away from the problem rather than addressing it.
Or people don't understand why you build things "right" anyway and are always broke. ;-)

But yeah, I agree. So much advice out and Best Practices out there that only work if you've got a 10-person org and plenty of time to spare, as well as a clear ROI for gold-plating.
The Duke Lacrosse players were crucified - 88 professors signed a letter vilifying them before any meaningful evidence. PROFESSORS - the arbiters of the scientific standard. Imagine if there wasn't exonerating evidence.

People refer to Kavanaugh as a rapist when he wasn't even accused of rape. 50% (or more) of the country still thinks of him as such. His family and children received death threats.

The case of Brian Banks is an example that should meet your standard. Black man with a potential professional football career goes to jail, DNA evidence exonerates years later.

Your past is still vital to who you are, both in your own eyes and in the eyes of others. Your comment is ignorant of the trauma that these circumstances bring to the accused - if you can have empathy for the victim, you should be able to carry the same empathy for the accused.
Thanks for the link. I like that it works without registering.
Isn't the topic at hand how businesses should handle the balance between keeping harassment out of the workplace, but not, in the name of that cause, overzealously punishing people who are implicated as having harassed somebody? Surely you're not suggesting that 100% of such cases fall into either:
A. Crimes the victims of which should go to the police with.
or B. So harmless that no business should ever take any action on it.

I would probably agree with an argument, if you were to make it, that the punishments in some of these cases that are driven by the reaction of larger social groups are too quick and too harsh. However, it sounds to me like you're making a much more extreme case that I have to disagree with.
Describe the problem in writing.

What usually happens is that I start writing a question on Stackoverflow, but as I write it I think of things I hadn't considered before - I probably only end up submitting 1 in 20 questions!
Serverless was never a thing. There are servers, whatever you want to call the them.

Observing coworkers spend weeks setting up serverless stacks, for not needing a server they sure spent a lot of time configuring their tools...

But obviously the next thing is codeless, which is WYSIWYG all over again. Kind of like how serverless was the cloud all over again.
Unless you can demonstrate they are as competent at risk assessment in this arena as they are in finance, you're fine to take it as lightly as anyone else's personal decisions. There's no a priori reason someone good at financial risk assessment would be as good at rationally modeling and reacting to risk in a domain which is significantly more personal and less quantifiable.
Can't you achieve the same result by leaving only view logic in the component, and having the data-related logic, including the fact that data has changed in a way that may require redraw, handled in a separate object? Here's how I'd do it in Mithril/TSX:

class WidthStore {
width: stream.Stream<number>;
constructor() {
this.width = stream(window.innerWidth);
window.addEventListener('resize', () => {
this.width(window.innerWidth);
m.redraw();
});
}
}

const widthStore: WidthStore = new WidthStore();

class MyResponsiveComponent {
view(vnode) {
return <p>Window width is {widthStore.width()}</p>;
}
}
> Colleges, businesses, and online communities almost always simply believe the victim, and even if a trial should occur and the accused is vindicated, the accused has already been fired, expelled, or crucified by public opinion

If you flip this statement, you find yourself in a similarly bad situation: if you always assume the perpetrator is innocent, the victim is now in a world of hurt until / if they can get a conviction. Unfortunately a lot of times for various reasons (many to do with the psychology of being a _person_, e.g. shame / no report, shock / slow to report) it devolves into "he said she said" because there's no physical evidence anymore << even if multiple people have stories about the same offender.

The result is that women live in a state of _perpetual fear of men_. And that's current state.

^ That's not even to mention that women are disproportionately likely to be assaulted / hurt by men than the other way around.

I'm not saying _presuming guilt_ is good. But that's not what happens, and your statement is a bit misleading. When you mention "firing/expelling/crucifying" you must remember these are usually done with pretty thorough investigation / good reason to believe the victim; there are far and away more cases of offenders getting away with their misdeeds.
I know this sounds a bit odd, but I yell at myself in my head, and not being degrading. If, for example, I am on a run and I want to stop, I'll tell myself "Fuck you atheartengineer, you are doing this". Most of the times it works, sometimes I just end up annoying myself, but I've had decent luck with it.
Every such paper I have received has explicitly noted the following, paraphrased:

- This is not a contract; any contract with us must be signed by the CEO. (Paper is not signed by the CEO.)

- You are an "at will" employee. The employment relationship may be ended at any time, by any party, for any reason, or no reason at all. There are no notice requirements, and any and all obligations of one party to the other are severed at the moment of separation.

- We may change the terms and conditions of your employment at any time. If you don't like it, you are free to leave.

As employment "contracts" go, these were slightly less useful to me than a roll of toilet paper.
The men are in a position of power.

Side note: How many women have been accused of sexual harassment?
Legalize psychedelics to treat addiction.
Community college courses. Learn a new subject, refresher or just looking for a new hobby. It might be difficult to spin glass blowing as a benefit to the company, but there is probably a justification somewhere.
That's a negligible risk. https://web.archive.org/web/20180101025446/https://icdv.idah...
Those are great hacks. Thanks for sharing. I have a few hacks of my own that are more about food and health:

1. Don’t abuse caffeine. I stopped drinking coffee and soda but instead I’ll have some dark chocolate when I need a pick me up. 80%+ and only break off a couple pieces. I also mix in cacao nibs into breakfast often.

2. I try to incoroporate blueberries into a lot of my breakfast. Not sure how affective it is but the flavonoids are supposed to be beneficial for brain function.

3. Avoid added sugar and keep simple carbs down on days I’m working.

4. Get at least 30min-1hr of intense exercise in every day

When I stick to the plan I feel like I’m operating at my best. I’m not insanely strict about this and on the weekend I throw out most of the rules. Except for abusing caffeine and the exercise requirement because cheating on those seem to affect the weekdays even if broken on the weekend.
> Why can't these men just learn to treat women like the humans they are?

This sort of willful misunderstanding of concerns feels like a subtle gaslighting campaign.

The vast majority of men being discussed here have zero problems in their treatment of women. They quite rationally have calculated that being around women at work is now a significant risk to them, with little or no upside in return, so they're bowing out.

You can preach all you like, but in my experience it's almost impossible to get people to act against their own self-interest, especially when the welfare of their loved ones is on the line.

Welcome to the new normal.
A case in Germany: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%B6rg_Kachelmann
Alice Schwarzer (german feminist) accused him even after he was found not guilty. Had to pay a fine because of that.

Again Germany:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gina-Lisa_Lohfink

The matress stuff:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_University_rape_contr...

But we know of those only because they were public figures or have been carried out in public. You don't hear about the private ones.
As we saw with the Kavanaugh hearings, a mere accusation is enough to unleash hell-fires. There is a large part of society that follows the “believe” culture which is what I suspect causes the fear. Nobody should be “belived” — evidence, corroboration and due process should be required. These days, a woman can literally accuse any man of anything and the man’s reputation can be destroyed. With Kavanaugh, some of the allegations brought by Avenatti were being treated as credible and having actually happened until they were proven to have been ridiculous.

However, I think public figure/political circumstances are the outlier and don’t agree with the concept of avoiding women. That’s just dumb on a number of levels. But I can understand the risk-adverse thinking. Ironically, the crowd screaming to “believe her” despite a lack of evidence actually caused more harm to women in the long run since the implication is that a women accusing anyone of anything is going to be “believed” regardless of evidence and without a consideration of due process. That’s a scary place to be as a man, knowing that a mere accusation and public flogging awaits even if there is no evidence of any wrongdoing having occurred.
I wonder how gay men handle this situation. Are situations that are symmetrical to the heterosexual version causing similar issues?
go right ahead
Not vegetarian, but have some related experience.

The problem isn't vegetarian vs. non-vegetarian, the problem is moving away from whatever diet you grew up in. There is a ton of "a meal looks like this" knowledge you don't really know you've absorbed, but changing it means you have to learn new things. This is especially true about achieving overall reasonable balance.

Two suggestions. 1) Look at major international vegetarian cuisines (e.g. Buddist, various Indian regions, some middle eastern) and learn some basics, practice until they are easy. 2) Find a broad range cookbook like "How to cook everything vegetarian" pitched and your comfort/skill level with cooking.

If you are really worried or confused about dietary balance, read something like "becoming vegetarian" or the like, a nutrition book rather than cook book. Actually, read a few, it will help you avoid the diet fad issues that plague food & nutrition. Question anything you feel sounds extreme.
You definitely need to get a foot in the door - personal relationships are key. Find out what open to the public network events your target market is going to, and start showing up. You may also consider doing a joint-venture with a more established firm to help get your first few clients. Enterprise products are indeed a different world, as this Dropbox Product Manager talks about in this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl5HVPe9P7w
