I pay for parking at my condo whether I use it or not because of minimum parking requirements. Could you imagine having to also pay for landline service on your mobile plan?

If it's worth it to have parking I'd gladly pay for it. For the moment I'm renting it out just below my costs because this next generation of renters aren't even bothering to drive much less park. So there is more capacity than need.

I started being charged $17 a month for Amazon Prime. I contacted Amazon and confirmed I didn't have, and had never had Prime. It was a fraudulent third party.

I think the scam must rake in huge sums of money, given that it could slip by for months unnoticed.

EDIT: Amazon confirmed my card was never used to purchase Prime for me or anybody else. The scammers were just charging my card $17, and hiding the charge under the name 'Prime Subscription'.
I most certainly know why it's sexist and degrading.

But the question still remains: The sexists and degrading cultures seem to produce a lot of kids. While the modern cultures do not produce enough kids. So which values will be passed on?

So what do we do? Is it intrinsic to these equality values, or can we keep these values and have another cultural change to make sure we produce enough kids to pass our values onto?
I agree with the “necessary evil” comment on the American car buying experience. Every time I go to the dealer, I feel like I’m going to be ripped off somehow. There is a perceived air of desperation that someone is going to get the chop if they don’t sell me a vehicle or service at some ridiculous markup. The post-purchase experience varies between a desperate cry to please help us help you and the occasional “do you exist, oh here’s a car deal that’s almost like the one you bought two months ago”.

Sounds like the Japanese have it figured out.
The last time I tried citi virtual card (1-2 years back), the interface was useless to be helpful. It ate up so much time to setup or verify card details that I did not want to use it. And then once when a merchant was declined, for no reason, citi customer support did not understand virtual cards themselves.
Well, then, I guess the author of the comment must disagree with the article.

That's exactly what global warming skeptics say, along with every conservative that doesn't support one of the non-conservative positions that is associated with science. This is not to say who is right in their accusations, just that it's the same accusation. If you want to disagree with "The Scientific Consensus (TM)" but can't do it on scientific grounds, that claim is automatically the option you have to go with. Of course, it may also be true in some cases.

In many EU airports it's a mix of both, you have to give a passport to a human then you have a silly spot on the ground where you stand and have your picture taken.
The human is there to verify non biometric passports but the picture is taken anyhow and is likely compared against a DB as well.

This is because the full effect of the legislation hasn't been implemented yet, IIRC all Schengen entry visas will require a biometric passport after 2020 or 2022.
Once that happens there is little reason to keep humans in place other than for assistance.

"This is basically a repeat of SEO.
At first, you have the early adopters. Things grow organically and it doesn't feel like a zero-sum game because there aren't many players.

Next comes the growth phase, where more people get involved, and start competing for attention/clicks/votes/whatever points system.

Next comes the exploiters, who discover weaknesses in the system and take advantage of them. They tend to make a lot of money because there's not much competition in this niche.

Next comes the crossover, where the exploit knowledge becomes public, and everyone now must do it because everyone else is.

Next comes the shutout, where the company running things starts actively punishing bad actors, but by this time, being a bad actor is essential to survival, so people do it anyway. It becomes a game of cat-and-mouse, new exploits, new mitigations.

Eventually, the company manages to fix their algorithms enough that the exploits don't offer decent marginal returns anymore, and it returns to what the company originally intended: 1% of people are successful, 99% of people make next to nothing, and the company makes shitloads.

And then the new big thing comes out. The old system goes into decline and the new system starts to take over. Rinse and repeat.

Dunno. But reading the test readme it seems like gLinux (GNU/Linux? RS' new angle?) has other problems that need dehacking.

I mean running test like this is fine who cares. But it's probably bad architecture for the unit test that makes it take time rather than the OSes. And that's fine because it's not production code. But not ground for a condescending snarky blog post.

What does this even mean? Do you think the subject of this article is just unavoidably biased and thus should stop researching? Should people in very obviously left- or right-leaning fields just pack up and quit doing anything? Bye-bye gender studies, I guess?

I hear that often in regard of programming languages. But I see a lot of value in remixing a lot of existing ideas in a new package. A wheel can only be so round and its interaction with the road is quite simple, but tech is different. Systems have widely different requirements. Old implementations have shortcomings and a hard time fixing those, especially due to backwards compatibility of complex systems. I cannot imagine how hard is to remove null from an existing programming language, as C# is currently trying. At some point it's just easier to start from a clean slate.

Is all the effort worth it? I don't know. But I wouldn't want to imply they are just doing it because their out of touch with reality.

You’re right that there are different ideas of efficiency. I wouldn’t say the zero-slack version is wrong, but it’s certainly not the only one.

Even with this broader idea of efficiency, the drive for efficiency can cause trouble. How does one define maximally efficient? Do you optimize to handle cases that occur once a month, or once a year, or a decade, or century? Short-term profit makes it hard to optimize for these rarer cases, because you’ll look less efficient for a long time, and the average executive will have moved on before disaster strikes.
Belgium. Mother gets 3 months, father 10 days by default.

Then we have parental leave, which is 4 months for each (can be taken fulltime, or part-time for 8 months, or 4/5th for 20 months). Then we have yet another 4 years each if you really want to take those.

I have 3 kids, and took more of my parental leave than their mom. I also enjoy taking care of my kids. So in practice I don't really live the traditional role ;).

Aren't most mental disorders just behaviors that differ from the norm and make it difficult for those people to function in everyday society? Some cultures wouldn't recognize some things as a disorder if it wasn't difficult for those people.

They're not just saying they should be heavily scrutinized. At least some are saying that it's flat out bad science to acknowledge the differences, or perform research into the subject at all.

Believing science is one thing, but that sounds like exactly the sort of "gendered narrative building" that feminists are trying to fight against. When they say stuff like "gender roles are fictional," a large part of it is due to people inventing stories in their heads about gender roles that aren't true. I think that it's fair to not try to add anything beyond what's demonstrably there.

But this describes an equality. I imagine an equation to be a proportionality written with standard units. Aren't they different? I mean an equality, an identity, a definition and an equation are different, even though most of the time they are indicated with the equality sign.

If that's the point of feminists then feminists are a danger to research, science and society. You are essentially arguing empirical biological research is impossible.

How about scientists do the research and feminists and conservatives can argue about the conclusions? Some conservatives twist science for their ends, but so do feminists. Not sure why you are just blaming one side.

I can't believe someone is actually justifying banning research.

It just seems like feminists ( a small vocal minority of feminists ) don't want research because the facts will probably go against their political ideology. If they thought the research would support their bias, I suspect feminists would be supporting it.

Your argument reminds me of christian conservatives demanding end to archeological research because facts that researchers dig up might conflict with their worldview.

I don't have huge problems stepping through code in browsers (source maps, async/await, blackboxing helps a lot), and when I do, I just resort to console.debug logging, but what I would like to know is why Firefox' source map support (at least when using Webpack) still is so terrible? And why is it OK in the Developer Edition of the browser? Why have two different implementations? Is Mozilla intentionally hobbling the regular edition of the browser to justify the existence of the Developer version (because other than the source map support, I don't see the point of the Developer version)?

And then people complain about developers only testing in Chrome, well...
