Your comment suggest you are from the first world and that your parents did not put enough pressure on you. Otherwise your reflection upon your wealth wouldn't result in this tirade.

I could believe that 32% more men realize that their inability (or disinterest) in controlling themselves around women might actually have consequences.

Uber/Lyft prices are totally transparent: they show you the fixed price before the ride.

Meanwhile, municipal taxis may not have been able to charge more per minute and/or unit of distance, but they could control how many of those units the ride took.
The article states they are too dependent on Google/Android? If the author have used a Chinese version of android he would think its another OS and not android.

The localization engineered on it is just awesome when I saw one. The hand writing on screen without even showing a keyboard to type their weird characters and the speech recognition is really good. I think it is a big setback not having Google on your side but that company is rich they can throw a lot of resources to their current problem.

I do agree that Playstore/Appstore is a bad monopoly and the world needs another worldwide distributed appstore.

Amstrad Action also had Type-righter (sic) and would put checksums next to every line of BASIC in the magazine.

Type-righter itself was included on the covermounted tape once that became a thing.
I agree it's overused and abused, but this is pretty straightforward. The author is attributing the rise to "men can't control themselves" instead of the obvious "men are afraid of false accusations". Even if the latter is not a good reason to be uncomfortable, the article should address that point instead of the overt strawman.

Love my TM3 but as I have posted before, Tesla needs to focus, Musk needs to focus. Tesla cars have some great user facing features but also are woefully behind in other areas.

The most flagrant is the awful support for playing music from blue tooth or attached devices. It has been common for years to be able to use the touch screen or menu to select playlists, artists, or more, from the car's UI. Not so with Telsa, want to do that drag your phone out and change what is play. You can only navigate within a playing playlist. Seeing how its illegal to use your phone in your hand in many states Tesla needs to remedy it.

We have none of our promised voice commands, no improvement since when I bought mine in August. Our energy meter is near useless, does not track when car is not moving, and only tracks overall use and does not break out HVAC, regen,or drive train use.

But we got fart humor, animated rain drops, and MAME. Their priorities suck, its no wonder why they aren't profitable, they cannot get done what they started before going off doing something else or wasting resources on stuff that does not matter
The Errol Morris documentary "Fast, Cheap & Out of Control" has a segment on mole rats [0].

I think that movie would appeal to a lot of HN members -- it's broadly about people who obsessively pursue some interesting corner of skill or knowledge, and how that makes the world a richer place. Kind of like the "Fred Dibnah, Stepplejack" series that I learned about on HN ([1], and I know it made HN about 7 years ago as well).

It sounds like your proposal would be to properly allay fears that unfounded accusations can be damaging and reassure men that women aren’t as sensitive as they may fear. Which accepts the premise of what I’ve said and concurs that this article perpetuates the problem.

The next thing is how do we do that not just in tech, but wider society since wider society influences such fears?
Fantastic suggestions! Thank you so much for taking the time! We'll definitely going to take them into account and revise the home page. Good stuff!

If by impeccable you mean they have released a ton of forged documents without any attempt to verify their veracity, you would be correct.

It's possible, sure, but websockets still use TCP. TCP is not suitable for most online gaming due to TCP retrying lost packets and generally being slower, unlike UDP.
It also allows them to price discriminate against rich parents to get them to pay more, and then they can subsidize kids from less wealthy backgrounds with scholarships. This works pretty well as a progressive system most of the time but there are plenty of stories of kids who have a rich parent or two who won't help their kid out at all and then the kid gets screwed with high tuition costs even though they have to pay for it all.
Landing a rocket on earth is technically a lot easier that making a self-driving car. The former is in a complex but reasonably well understood area of physics plus some advance manufacturing. The latter is cutting edge AI sitting in the middle of a legislative/political/ethical quagmire.

Some people have family to support. Eating all the canned chili in the world is not going to bring down your parents' medical bills.

Your advice may work well for you, which is fine, but bakes in a lot of assumptions about social class, which is what we were just trying to avoid. To be young and debt-free and responsibility-free coming out of university is not everyone's lot.
so we just have to go in and fix it up. No big deal.
They’re not in any way committed.

Imagine waking up to a taxi and offering $10 to go somewhere, and they tell you no thanks but they’ll do it for $15.

These drivers are just negotiating the price. The platform tries to block negotiation but it does not quite succeed.
Google Releases Open Image V5, Launches Open Image Challenge
I don't believe the physical antenna itself is difficult or expensive. The expensive part is all the digital phase control circuits that are needed to actively steer the antenna beam. A electronically scanned array antenna is actually a whole lot of little antennas fed by an equal number of phase control electronics. The phase control electronics need to be small and inexpensive (since there are a lot of them) and also able to accurately adjust the phase of a very high frequency signal (24++GHz). That is difficult.

When there was a problem with a sysvinit procedure, one could simply fix it. As a result, mostly nobody ever had a problem with it.

When there is a bug with systemd, you have to fix systemd. And your version of systemd is completely different from the head, because head was rewritten last month (in a process that persists bugs) and yours is a year old. You can't just use head either, because every low level system on your computer is tied to systemd, and they work differently on head. You won't fork it either, because it's so large that a single person can't keep up.

Without a doubt, a declarative init is much better than an imperative one. But that relatively small number of commands is no gain if each command is more complex than the entire set it is replacing, and I'll completely disagree on the handling of modern hardware, hotplugging and the like. Besides, there is the entire logging saga against systemd.
I recently looked at this while reviving a trusty old Samsung S4, but ultimately just went with Enhanced LOS and no gapps. F-Droid has pretty much everything I really need. It’s kind of amazing how well supported this stuff is by the community, I am tempted to move away from the Apple ecosystem for my regular phone.
I pay for IRCCloud, but the problem is that it only fixes everything for you. It does you almost no good when nobody else can receive a message after they close their laptop or go through a tunnel.

The IRC communities speak for themselves. Pretty much all regulars, no new blood, tiny, and opinionated grouches that are kinda hard to stand. You'd think #javascript or #node.js on Freenode would be pretty big. Nah, I'm on there every day and it's about 10 regulars. I could list off the usernames off the top of my head.

To put that in perspective, my Slack community for people who like building MUDs has more regulars and it's hard for me to think of a smaller niche. If you're trying to set up a community and you think IRC is good enough and you refuse to offer alternatives, your stubbornness is only disserving your users and community.

I can think of many more options too, like how Elm's IRC channel makes you think nobody uses the language, yet Elm's Slack community is thriving and more fun to participate in than #javascript and #node.js, and is far more popular.
The more configuration flexibility you have, the more bugs you will have.

Small nitpick: The fields for sign up and create account are the same and should carry over if you switch between the two. For example I entered my email & pass to log in but mean to sign up and had to enter the info twice.
They aren't, and the furthermore is also true beyond a certain percentage. This is part of the reason why in a number of jurisdictions the courts have ruled that the drivers aren't independent contractors.
What Title IX and consent debates miss
Hi!

It is anxiety proviking because it's a weird situation that we just don't get much experience of.

I've had two rounds of CBT in England. The first was called "low intensity" -- this was group work, and the sessions were ruin by two therapists but they changed about halfway through. It ran for 6 weeks. I didn't find that much use.

Later I had "high intensity" CBT, which was one to one and face to face with an experienced therapist.

Things I found useful: she listened to me; she correctly identified the things that I felt were a problem that I wanted to work on; she changed some of her wa of working to fit me. (I hate the phone, so she used email to contact me if needed, which doesn't sound like much but it can be really tricky to get NHS people to email patients).

I don't have experience with phone based therapy, but I do know it's used in the English NHS so there must be some evidence it works somewhere.

I really hope that you give it a go, and that it makes a difference!

> This is nonsensical. It also proves out the hunch I expressed from my last post, so thank you for doing the legwork for me.

How is it nonsensical? Is the end-consumer just supposed to sit and watch drivers and the company fight to see how much money they can extract from their wallet?

Stop trying to make outside forces seem like some sort of sinister scare tactic. It betrays _your_ bias.

The agreement is that Uber/Lyft set the prices based on the number of drivers in the area. It's ok by the very nature of the agreement both the drivers and the passengers agree to for using the app.

It's ok for the drivers to say "I won't drive for less than $X". What's not ok is saying "I'll sit here and not drive and force a surge so I can then take advantage of a situation I caused." If they weren't at the airport, that's one thing. But they sit at the airport and pretend to not be waiting for fares so they can force a surge. Then they turn on the app so they can both be readily available and get the surge.

Uber/Lyft get their cut either way. The people getting the brunt of the higher fares are the passengers. So dismissing them as a concerned party is only a tactic to defend the drivers.

Are the passengers also not part of the "poor people"?
> Mobile or not, games are time wasters, for when you have time to spare.

Oh, they good 'ol waste of time argument in a sauce of nostalgia and regret. Been there, done that.

Games do not have to be time wasters! There are good games which you can play casually. An example is Wordfeud (a Scrabble clone) which only takes about 5 minutes every 3 days if you want it to be. Its great to play whilst traveling or on the toilet.

Puzzle elements and competitive elements can be a useful aid. Even hand eye coordination has uses. Doing so in a playful manner can be constructive. I've seen games which even learn a toddler programming basics. Even the social element of a game such as a pen & pencil RPG or an MMORPG (why travel IRL for RPG) is worth something.

> You ask yourself: What the fuck am I doing with my life?

This is a good question to ask for people who get sucked into time sinks of gaming. What I've observed is that people who do those grindy games need to get their mind of their RL issues. You can call it avoiding reality, or trying to cope with reality.

At least in Uber's case this seems to have been an emergent thing originally, as in: drivers independently of each other found under which conditions the prices were surging and acted appropriately.
Pants are shirts! Assange participated in the Seth Rich conspiracy, intimating that Rich had possibly been one of the DNC sources. There’s an obvious difference between never issuing a retraction and never needing to.
There's more to a product than a protocol and foundational similarities. Whenever someone uses this to distract away from the success of Slack, for example, I question if they realize that UX, design, ease are all part of a product and can be independently innovated on.
If there's one thing that fills me with dread is buying a car knowing that there's going to be a dozen obviously awful and easily fixable aspects of the software that will bug me every single day—every single time I drive it, until it is replaced by the next car with a dozen different obviously awful things.

Tesla, for all its faults, offers its owners hope that of the dozen obvious and easily fixable aspects of the software, some of them might actually get fixed in that car's lifetime.

(And sometimes you get fart jokes. Fix all the damn bugs; only then do I give you permission to fart.)
I suspect progress in electricity and batteries has lagged far behind the excitement and hype that Tesla needs to keep afloat.

I'm using this on a HTC 10 for 9 to 12 months now (on an inofficial LineageOS build). Only major quality of life issue is the lack of system-wide weather data (e.g. Garmin Connect is unable to display weather on my fitness tracker). Minor annoyances are the absence of the pretty good Google Maps (though I've heard good things about Here Maps on HN) and that Volvo on Call seems to have some trouble with rendering the replacement OSM map data; but I only installed VoC recently, so I could not check this on a Google-infected Android, plus that feature is not that important (and if I'll ever be too drunk to find my car that's probably a good thing after all).

Two friends of mine migrated from Windows Phone directly to Samsung Galaxy S... uhm, not sure, 8 or 7 I think... with LineageOS+MicroG, and are quite happy as well.
Convince me otherwise. There is a reason why developers make how much they do despite most developers not having the social skills to negotiate aggressively for good comp.
I started at $63k a year. My student loan payments were $1,200 a month. Apartments in my area started at $1,500 a month. Insurance is important to me for my health, and 401k for retirement. Would be nice if that cheap car I got would stop breaking down and failing emissions inspections... Gee, would be nice to not wake up on the floor because your crappy air mattress lost all the air in it during the night. There's no TV to watch because I didn't have one, so the list of basic things to buy is growing.

The reality is, not everyone lives in California. Entry level salaries have certainly increased since I graduated, but they're still not $100k+. Advanced payments are hard to make when you're just getting started and have nothing to stand on.

I'm not arguing that it's not possible, I'm only arguing that your imagination of how much money the average jr developer has to splash is not realistic.

It’s on a slightly different level.

There are strong incentives to find ‘sexy’ results, but this is mostly aimed at getting a paper into Nature, Science, or Cell. Publishing in these journals can have an outsized effect on one’s career, even if the results don’t actually hold up.

In contrast, there’s not a huge pay off for getting something into Popular Science or the New York Times science section. Publicity is good and can help show the relevance of your research. It’s also fun to show your mom (who still wants you to go to med school), but people tend not to chase it nearly as hard as a “glam” paper.

I’ve heard about this tactic from people working at Uber years ago. I think they’re aware that it happens. The way it was described to me is the Ubers are in a line at the airport and each car signs off except the very first. That way rides keep coming and the first person in line gets surge pricing
Good list.

Having done a lot of professional tech mentorship, and fitness/nutrition coaching, I can also say that a lot of people who've asked me for help make it into 1-3 items of a similar list I have, and back off, and then.. typically, come back 6-9 months later and report that they have the same issues, feel the same way, and now feel kind of bad about themselves having failed to achieve/change more.

It's an axiom in coaching that you can't get people to do things, that you can only offer up suggestions/solutions and those who are ready will jump on it. I think this is pretty true. I also think that if you're on the bubble, and you want change but aren't quite sure if you'll really stick with it, making enough change can be a turning point. Something will click when you do enough, and that click can be the moment when you really want it, because you have seen a bit of change.

But, in short you have to be pretty ruthless for yourself to transform, and that usually also means disconnecting from some of your legacy commitments (friends, amount of social time, drinking, etc).
