You're saying that OPs perspective is wrong? Because that was the implicit perception in my friend and familial circle. Between friends, cousins and siblings, the boys were by and large fuck-ups and girls were responsible. Almost every girl I knew went to university, whereas (maybe) half the boys did. Most in my circle did well in life, but the ones that didn't were guys.

Things just aren't that simple, and there is tendency of only highlighting these 'microaggressions' suffered by young girls. I don't dismiss that it happens, but growing up sucks for everybody and these indignities are suffered by everyone. And it doesn't end with school, when I started working I went out to some trade-shows as a technical resources with a young (under-30) sales guy. We got no respect from the 50+ year old gray beards in our industry. As in, we, and especially him, got overtly disrespected because of our inexperience and youth. And when you're young, you always feel like you're behind (because you are), and you're desperately trying to push forward and gain recognition, respect and acceptance and you really feel the small daily indignities, from the meeting you weren't invited to, to project you aren't on, to your ideas being ignored (not even dismissed, just ignored), to simply not getting the credibility or respect or recognition you feel you deserve.
As your comment is the strongest iteration of this line of thought (which seems to be shared by a lot of people). I'll reply to it and explain why.

> I agree with you until you bring up gender. Girls also talk about how boys are idiots. Women's remarks can also bring down men or uplift them

One is not like the other. Teenage female peer dynamics are heavily dominated by corumination and is directed heavily inwards. When girls bully other girls, they do it indirectly. It is more psychologically directed and intensely focused on gossip and disguised status seeking behavior. It is rarely directly confrontational, and I have rarely - if ever - heard girls talk about men's compentence in some general regard that way.

It's more like, "that guys such an idiot. He said <> and <> to me. Can you believe that?"

Teenage boys on the other hand are manifestly different. I am not an expert on male teenage behavior, but judging from the fact that the vast majority of teens sending epithets to other people online or on social media are overwhelmingly likely to be teenaged boys, I would suggest that the male pattern is aggressive and an overt dominance game.

Women don't do well in that environment. Boys often do and say things that are bewildering for anyone socialized as female to interact with.

> It's just that (especially young) women seem more susceptible to social pressure and the need to fit in, especially with other women.

Yes, female social dynamics are heavily about inclusion and exclusion. A welcoming and safe environment matters a lot more to women than it does to men.

> I just think that pointing at a few loudmouthed boys and claiming that there's the reason for the gap is pretty disingenuous

I have not made that claim.

I am just talking about my experience. Your mileage may vary.

"Dynamic typing" is pretty trivial from type theory standpoint, it's just having one giant sum type whose variants can be everything.

Also, type theory is a mathematical/logical theory first, the connection to programming languages was discovered long after it was developed.
A desktop graphics card, a larger desktop CPU. Expandable storage.
If it's an expanded battery and you are out of warranty, they should only charge the cost of the battery to get that fixed up, so you wouldn't be out of pocket for the top case part (which is much more expensive) nor any other components that may have been damaged by the expansion.

I'd argue that in pretty much every transaction where trust is involved (all e-commerce, and not only that) I'd want to know the other party to be not anonymous so that it's possible to combat breach of trust:

1) to make it easy to verify if they're trustworthy based on past experience;

2) to make it easy to identify and prosecute them if trust is breached;

3) make it difficult for them to 'start from scratch' if they deservedly gain a bad reputation;

Currently the vast majority of e-commerce happens through credit card networks on principles that essentially can work only because it's very hard for CC merchants to be anonymous.

Also, if I'm entrusting my data to some service, I do want the operators of that service to be not anonymous - if it is easy for them to escape liability for misusing that data, then that significantly raises the risk that they might actually misuse that data.

A lot of useful things in our society require or assume trust. Anonymity weakens trust; accountability through clear, unescapable identity strengthens trust.

I jumped on the Apple bandwagon circa 2007ish, when I bought a Mini. Prior to OS X (and its nix underpinnings) + x86, I paid them no mind, but both of those things put together plus their reputation for solid hardware engineering finally won me over. Shortly after that, I got myself an Air. Before that I bought and used ThinkPads exclusively. I also have the original 15" Retina MBP from 2012, which still runs great.

But I have slowly found myself leaving the Apple ranks over the years, and the 2012 Retina was the last Mac I spent money on. I also ditched iOS (and iPhone along with it) for Android (long story) well before macOS began to take a back seat for me.

In January, I requisitioned a Surface Book 2 from my employer, and it has been fantastic so far. Easily the best laptop keyboard I have ever* used.

If you told 20-years-ago me that I would be buying PCs manufactured by Microsoft and praising them, I would have had you committed. But it has been fascinating watching a hungry Microsoft compete in this space...
There is a categorical difference between the OP, in which failure to account for statins creates the observation, and a clinical trial that successfully reduces mortality even though the event rate in the control arm wasn’t 100%. That difference is so great that there is almost no relationship between those scenarios.
> [...] Linux blatantly violates the language specification [...]

We can't expect a kernel to be aware of all language specifications.

Yes, I know that in this case C is both the program's and the Kernel's language in this example but even then. Languages go through iterations (versions) and a Kernel can't be required to obey all languages which might run under it.

Same for Northern Europe. Most of the smart kids in high school were girls. Some went on to study science, but I don't think any of them were interested in computers or went for CS degrees. In fact I know way more women with math and other science degrees; I am not sure why those women did not show interest in specifically engineering or CS, which do have low numbers of female students.

Perhaps those fields are perceived as not social, introverted, not warm or inviting; but I feel it would probably be a bad idea to market them as such and force a lot of young women into engineering and CS out of some misguided principle rather than their own future happiness.

Of course there are certain men that make claims about women's ability to do math, but in my experience those are often men that clearly don't possess that ability themselves... Their opinion might be mostly detrimental to their own offspring rather than to society as a whole. Those tend not to be people whose boys attend university either.

Is Firefox Premium going to keep removing features people use, such as tab groups, and stopped nerfing add-ons by removing API for extensible functionality (such as proxy by url wildcard)? While a free product might be excused for doing this (because you get what you pay for), the expectations for paid product a bit higher.

Now that I think about it, Firefox 56 updated with security patches in perpetuity and with active add-on ecosystem would be a great product. It was the most extensible browser ever, so new features can be delegated to add-on developers. Make the add-ons paid as well, I wouldn't mind.
The takeaway from the article to which I tend to agree:

This is true, but:

a) most applications don't need 7nm. S3 will do a custom ASIC for under $2M[1], and I've heard figures as low as $100K for a FPGA for ASIC conversion.

b) General purpose embedded CPUs with extended instruction sets are often fast enough for most purposes.

Well, that's probably what most people tell their children, male or female. I know I've heard that line a few times. It's sad how the love of parents trying to prevent disappointment seems to be a major factor in stopping kids from actually trying something hard.
It's very common for people who win small prizes to 'reinvest' their winnings though. Someone who spends $5 and wins $25 might then just buy $25 of tickets with that win. If they're playing online that money never really exists - it's just an account balance in a database going up and down.
I'd enjoy it very much and not feel bad at all.

Speaking of obscure, getting Washington to cut down the cherry tree by painting the fruit red got me stuck as a kid in Sweden. I hadn't heard the cherry tree myth (and now only through the game) and even if they gave hints in the dialogue, I didn't get those either. I don't even remember if I got past it or if I gave up.

I replayed the remastered game a couple of years ago on PS4 with my daughter who was seven years old, and this time the only thing I was stuck on was the cat puzzle with the squeaky mattresses. I read a blog post just now about that puzzle, and it's special because you use the Use verb on two different things outside of your inventory. You usually go inventory->world or inventory->inventory, but here it's world->world. So I had to look up that one solution in the whole game.

Playing as an adult, it's much easier to keep in mind what clues you have and what the open puzzles are. As a kid, I would just start using everything with everything else, and the hints from failed interactions wouldn't clue me in. Now I see they make a really god job at telling you why things don't work and what you should try instead.

I was pleasantly surprised that my daughter thought the game was hilarious. I expected her to get bored quickly, but we played through it all together.

I feel like mathematically, you must be right. One of the sides must be calculating their expected value wrong.

For example I can offer to pay a $3 jackpot (split across winners) for a $1 game for guessing heads or tails. If more than 3 people play the game, I make money. For each player, the naive way to calculate expected return is $3 * 0.5 + $0 * 0.5 - $1 = $0.5. So the players also think they are making money. But once you account for jackpot splitting, that "expected value" isn't positive anymore. To calculate this correctly, the player (who has less information) need some way to model the distribution of the number of other players.
Actually I think they fully understand it. "Market failure" does not mean that a company fails to sell something. Here's the definition:

> Market failure is the economic situation defined by an inefficient distribution of goods and services in the free market...In traditional microeconomics, this is shown as a steady state disequilibrium in which the quantity supplied does not equal the quantity demanded.

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/marketfailure.asp

GP claimed there are demands not being met, because suppliers make more money selling to a "virtual customer that's an average of all customers across all characteristics." If that's correct, arguably it is a market failure, and that's consistent with those suppliers making lots of money selling to that average customer.
> Yes, female social dynamics are heavily about inclusion and exclusion. A welcoming and safe environment matters a lot more to women than it does to men.

You're basically saying that males are more resilient and assertive - this doesn't mean that females can't "shoot down" boys, however indirectly. When you're constantly hearing about "toxic masculinity" being the problem and all males are being equated to toxic, entitled narcissists who might turn "creepy" on you at any moment, are you sure that this isn't a drag to the average guy? Guys care about being included socially, too. They can deal with overt hostility if they have to, but let's not pretend that they'll be happy about it.

"A Bit of Fry and Laurie", "It's a Soaraway Life: The Rupert Murdoch Sketch" from season 4, episode 1 (the only version I found uses PIP and pitch changing to avoid automatic copyright infringement algorithms - https://youtu.be/gziBQG9ea4g?t=1172 .

It's a spoof of "It's A Wonderful Life" with Murdoch in place of George Bailey. In the world-without-Murdoch, there is much niceness in the UK, people are happy and like each other, the UK has some of the best TV in the world, no one has sat TV, the hospital system is doing well, people like the monarchy, etc.

At the end, the Murdoch character realizes how much money he could make in this world. His guardian angel then throws him into the river, ending the sketch.
When I read this kind of stories about US lotteries (and there seem to be several of this kind of stories going around), I always wonder how on earth it is possible for so many cases of failed lottery rule design to exist in the first place, and for those clear failures to persist for so long.

Did no one notice that the lottery always lost huge sums of money during the Rolldown draws, while it gained money on normal draws (as it should always be the case)? No one noticed that certain convenience stores suddenly sold hundreds of thousands worth of tickets in these draws, while most other stores sold a normal amount?
Personally, I wouldn't trust it for actual production yet, Kent does claim it is. I'd want it mainlined before deploying it on my servers.

How about kill face to face conversation and replace it with IM chat? IRL conversations suck. You can't edit what you say, you can't copy paste technical details into them, speaking is slower than typing and listening is slower than reading. It's inferior in every way. Just like these 1 hour conference Youtube videos that can be easily replaced by a convenient PDF presentation.

2. Is your blog really that important, meaningful or valuable that it needs to be preserved after your death?

That requires a lot of faith in the fairness of the particular lottery.

I love how there's topics on HN which are basically pointless to try and dispute the nonsense because ever more commentators are going to continue doing it.

The fact that comment sections fill up with this stuff instantly and there's so many saying it's all a scam says something in itself. Along with the routine DDOS'ing they get every few months it gives me a suspicion of which way to lean in the debate.

I want to point out that I don't want everyone working for Boeing out of a job, I want people that invested in Boeing to lose that investment (so that other boards in the future are incentivized to hold other management teams accountable) and to erase the obviously dangerous safety culture that currently exists in the company. I'm sure that their employees and assets could be useful for their competitors.
