This depends on each person's viewpoint and their perspective in life.

A family with children may have a husband being the main source of income while his housewife stays at home to look after their children and property.

Just because the husband is the only one working does not mean his wife is not contributing equally in raising their kids and maintaining their family. The husband himself is personally responsible for those same tasks his wife is doing at home, and should have been doing them himself too. We can't single out the money source as the only element in a relationship, while completely ignoring other efforts that might have provided even higher values than just monetary wealth. This again traces back to each individual's value and belief system.

The purpose of the law is to uphold justice. You really think they didn't consider it before drafting and implementing such laws?

People keep fighting for equal rights at work places or in society, but then conveniently turn around and say 50/50 is not fair when the moment comes to decide on their own portion of shares.

That's why the laws are flexible enough to allow people the ability to sign pre-marriage contracts for those who are too concerned with that. They can't bend the laws for their own mistake after failing to be responsible for themselves.

Though I do agree that a rigid 50/50 should not be applied to every situation as there will always be special cases that are outliers.
No I don't think an organization that was ostensibly trying "to publish fact-based stories without fear or favour" should have published the highly edited and misleading video which was packaged to go viral. That told me everything I needed to know about his intellectual honesty and what to expect from Wikileaks. I guess no one else had the same takeaway.
Let me be honest: every single candidate for the role has a past like this.

It's not really regional. I have noticed this most from folks who are transitioning genders. Some are OK with "they", but some prefer folks to go above and beyond to affirm their new gender, thus objecting to "dude" and "guys".

As a result, I've gotten into the habit of saying "y'all" and "folks" even though I'd otherwise never have used these words.

When I read `native-base` I was all: ewww. Everybody I talk to who used it in previous project regretted it and build back.

Second, the mixture of yarn and npm in the code snippet shows that the author either didn't understand what they are doing, or does not care to lead with a clean example. It's okay to stick with only npm in a beginners tutorial.

I remember Delphi had one called DIJ/Delphi Internet Jet, I want to say it actually did everything in QWK format but it's been so long I don't remember. I do remember using QWK to get a lot of stuff off of WWIV<->UUCP gateways and FidoNet.

One of the things that kept me at the time on Delphi was 1) X-Files had a huge fanbase there and Chris Carter would regularly join the forums and 2) You could break out of the menus and get down to the VMS shell which is how I first learned something other than DOS/Windows.

I still racked up massive phone bills even with the offline readers.
And what about marginal minorities?

I fantasize about a two-level system, societal and local, which works summarily like this: A societal association only decides about its members and the group it represents. A local association organizes the location it is in charge of. This association has a two-cameral structure: residents and associations that have residents in the location are mandatory members.

Nation states and citizenship are abolished and replaced by membership in this two-level system. All residents are citizens both of the location where they live and of the social group they feel they belong to.

And now, I could imagine that these associations are organized as futarchies.
No, the "ruiners" are the ones who impose large costs on the system. Some people are just trying to live peacefully on the streets. In large enough numbers, yeah you'll get people treating public spaces poorly and it'll cause public health problems.

The key difference is that people like this who are living on the streets intentionally, if they get kicked out of the area they're living in or if the friend group gets broken up, they'll just go back to living in regular housing. Things like housing centers aren't useful to this group, but if you have cops go through arresting people they will go away.

(For what it's worth, my source knowledge here is totally personal and anecdotal. When I was a new grad student at Berkeley I was surprised when a roommate of a friend told me he had recently spent a few days on the streets. He explained to me that he did this often, panhandling to make some extra money, thought it was generally fun, and met a number of people doing it for similar reasons.)
Sure we all know this, but for business people with money this looks fishy.

I don't think it's a matter of becoming partisan, I think it's more a matter of getting new opportunities for the orientation he's always had and pursued.

If you had an organization designed from it's inception to selectively leak information with a clearly biased perspective, it would defeat the purpose if you labeled it that way.

These 3 individuals have shown the world the corruption and criminal activity our governments engage in and no matter how hard they try to silence them, eventually the truth will show through.
There’s uncertainty on the details of good economic policy. Hong Kong grew rich with a policy of unilateral free trade and no government growth or industrialisation policy to speak of. What isn’t in dispute is that secure private property and a functioning legal system work better than the alternatives. There’s no point in investing in anything if the government will be along shortly to take everything. Even where the government are less rapacious they can mess things up, see India’s Licence Raj, and the increase in growth rates after the repeal of most of the government controls of industry.

There is a lot of disagreement on the best economic policy, there’s very little on good economic policy, and that’s 80 or 90% of the way to the best.

I think the answer becomes clear if you just ask yourself a simple question: was Google aware that having an ideologically diverse panel would spark some sort of protest among at least a healthy handful of their employees? I find it extremely difficult to imagine the answer to that question is no. So why would they cave to something they knew they would provoke? Ah.

Google is increasingly clearly driven primarily, if not exclusively, by money + influence. An increasingly large number of voices have been calling for something like an ethics panel. And this was an appeasement to them and to those that feel Google puts its self interest ahead of ethics. And this panel would have been nothing but a self inflicted thorn for Google. They're not going to tell them how to make more money or gain more influence. Instead they would be more like to proposed Google temper their actions or even outright avoid certain potentially very profitable endeavors. And this would have been coming from a relatively authoritative group operating from within Google itself, making it quite difficult to ignore. And by the time they started making these recommendations it would have been difficult to torpedo the panel since it would appear that they were being torpedoed for what they said (which would be true), and that'd be some horrifically bad press for an already beleaguered company.

Now Google gets to not only pull the plug, but to also claim that claim they've tried to form an independent ethics panel of experts before but 'unfortunately' their employees were opposed to it. And at Google since we deeply care about the voices and opinions of our employees, we've decided that instituting such a panel is clearly not a productive idea. And they can now reference this incident anytime outside forces propose instituting third party panels. On top of this all they also get to gain some goodwill back from their employees. Those 2,000 (who undoubtedly have been part of every single one of the recent walkouts/etc) are going to think they had a real and genuine impact.

But I'd expect they miscalculated two issues. The first is only having 2,000 people show up on the outrage wagon. "Caving" to that many people does look quite peculiar. And I think the bigger mistake they're making is in miscalculating what they just did to those 2,000. This isn't going to appease them - it's going to give them a sense of entitlement and empowerment leading them to even more actively and aggressively protest against future actions.

Speaking of "over", of course that word should be used instead of the cryptic one-letter / name:

There; no cryptic one-character anything. No curly braces, no commas, no operators.
Well, that “downside” is the entire point. Czech publishers call this “social DRM”, which conveys the point well: if the book says it was printed for me, visibly, I won’t be inclined to distribute it illegally. It isn’t about enforcement (see sibling comment). And yes, you can strip visible watermarks, but this still discourages casual pirates well.

Then the project sponsors would have to estimate value at a granular level.

Which is essentially just as inconvenient for the business to estimate as schedule is for developers.

They are more important in the organisation, so they don't, and instead insist on perfect estimates from the dev team.
I like the README.md for StarSpace[1] because it has lots of examples which get you thinking.

I used graph embeddings as input to a classifier to classify people when follower/followee information was easy to gather but text wasn't.

Basically anything that can be represented as a graph can be used. There is some interesting work being done using code syntax trees as input which uses a very similar approach. See code2vec[2]

I'm not aware of any way to transfer text embeddings into graph emneddings, but you can could concatenate them and use them together (I've done this before) or maybe do some dimension reduction or do a multi-task learning thing and try to learn some combined representation.

I'm not ware of the scalability limits for this particular library, but Facebook Research's pytorch-biggraph[3] (released 2 days ago) scales to trillions of edges and billions of nodes.

The first thing I thought of in that salad example was to understand why I am hungry. Am I hungry because I’m really just thirsty and need water? And am I not drinking enough water because I chose coffee twice in a row earlier this morning? It’s more like I evaluate in historical choices and need to give more thought to upcoming choices.

The user experience declined slightly after lastpass got acquired.

For a year or two, lastpass for Firefox didn't have the copy option for usernames and passwords. I had to edit, show password, then copy.

The autofill problem became pronounced after the acquisition as well probably through no fault of the new owner. Many sites like Google and Microsoft have switched to a multi-step login process where username is entered first and password is entered on a different page

Also a proof of sites abusing autofill & hidden forms to steal passwords probably influenced the current situation.

This seems to me like a great argument to avoid all cloud based providers and their mobie apps. Especially when opensource, time tested, self-hosted solutions exist.

You seem to be more concerned about UX than security. Compromising security for better comfort is not a very good strategy.

Ask HN: C++ in Intro Class to Programming and Writing Code at Exams on a Paper?
Hello HN.

My local university is undergoing through CS curriculum/program updates, but they still hold very tight onto the idea of teaching Programming Intro with C++ and writing code at exams on paper which the staff manually type into editor, compile and check for "correctness".

I find this practice utterly unjustified.

What do you think?

I'm quite concerned about the fact that many(and I mean it) students do actually ditch the idea of becoming programmer after failing in that very class.
30s seems a lot, I never see that. Maybe it depends on the amount of pwds saved...
Why do you have a specific need to read the database periodically polling it instead of just pushing the data to elastic search at the same time that it reaches the database?
I don’t know anything about your architecture, but unless you’re handling data on a very big scale probably rationalising the architecture would give you much more performance and maintainability than putting everything in the cloud.

It is, especially when they are running a lot of base load, so it's not about firing up 20 nodes for an hour and then idling along on one node for the rest of the week.

"We'd rather not manage the database ourselves" was the answer from the lead dev, and I do understand that: it's not the developers' job to manage servers. In this company, management has removed themselves from anything technical and the devs don't like managing servers, so they say "let's use AWS, we'll write some code once to create our environment and Amazon takes care of the rest" - and by this point they are committed, with months having been spent on getting things running on AWS, changing the code where necessary etc, so reversing it would be a hard thing to sell to investors and the team.

Google's search engine is more than 10 years old, yet Google is still hiring engineers. Why is that? Should they not have managed lights-out automation for it?

More importantly, the world changes and software has to change with it. An accounting system will need to be fitted to changing regulatory frameworks in the future. That knowledge is the basis of good application design. Schemaamnesia databases with highly-scalable vendor-locked PaaS peripherals that are constantly changing also require constant developer attention, but do not rise to that challenge.
They've been discussing the copyright directive for months. All the parties, all the members, knew exactly how they are going to vote long before they came to the parliament that day.

I think Baseball is excellent to watch while in the background, e.g. in a restaurant. There is a lot of build-up when you can continue eating and during the few seconds of action you can watch the TV. And if you missed, there is enough time to show replays.

> Growing up all we did was drive, often times 15 hours, for vacation. Can't imagine stopping every 3 hours for a half hour to charge.

This is laughable as someone who grew up comfortably middle class and made 20+ drives between PA <-> FL. We looked forward to the stops along the way for many reasons: to relax, stretch our legs, and eat the sandwiches we packed; to check out all the cool stuff at South of the Border; catch a beautiful view; or — my personal favorite — stop for Kristy Kreme doughnuts before they made their way up north.

I love to drive. And I’ve never taken a road trip — car or motorcycle — where a 30min rest stop wasn’t welcome.
