Wikipedia’s article on grammatical gender offers some strong reasons, the main one being disambiguation of antecedents (for example, which of multiple objects in the sentence the subject or verb is referring to) and homophones (different words with the same spelling or pronunciation).

I don’t think it’s an obsession with sex per se, as much as just a legacy many thousands of years old. Some suggest it didn’t even start as a male/female thing, but perhaps animate/inanimate. It’s worth noting how many very different languages globally have grammatical gender, and that in many of them, the gender of words frequently contradict what you’d guess, as well as reverse gender in many situations. Learning languages like German and Icelandic, you’ll be warned not to think of words as gendered so much as just categorized arbitrarily, because grammatical gender and natural gender so often have nothing to do with each other.

Anyway, the rest of the article is pretty interesting too!

We are free to believe what we want to believe. We are free to do as we wish. We have that mercy from our Lord.

What happens to us is not of our wish. It is of his. How we react is in OUR hands.

Don't kill yourself. Just because you believe the world should be treating you a certain way but it is not, is not a good reason to die. It is selfish.

You took up resources in this world. In a first world nonetheless. You took away someone else's opportunity to have what you have. You need to give back. And giving up does not do that.

We live for others. We live for community. We live to bring others happiness. We live to protect others from the problems we faced. We live to rescue others from what we were rescued from.

From the beginning of your comments, you get offended. You don't like things being phrased a certain way. You don't like what you hear. True judgement is not embedded in your emotions. It is when you are free of it. But you are not. So it remains that your judgement is compromised.

You called me an evil force. When I only help you find reasons to live. You commit to suicide. And then instill in others reason to die. What is evil here?

The blunder that could cost the U.S. the new space race
If the robots are cheaper than human labor, there will be more goods available and the goods should be cheaper.

The problem will be that we are used to matching supply and demand by rewarding productivity, not real shortages.

Ironically, the very best jobs in extremely productive economies like the US are detached from productivity and linked to perception and politics and the like (or do people believe that every $10 million CEO is that much better than the next guy on the list).
Been there too. What I got out of it besides the burnout is the experience not to work on such projects ever again even if my job is on the line. Or set low expectations and take my time with it. I think I burned out 3 times but the intensity of the latest burn were most signigicant. Took me a while to get back to work, about a year, and at the time I felt a bit desperate, felt like I lost my livelyhood. Felt scary. What helped me cope was painting; through painting I felt like i was doing a purge for my brain and and at the same time like I was meditating. It just happened to be painting for me, but something tells me that using my hands/my body had something to do with it. My burnouts were luckily not chronic. Im sure that whoever exposes themselves to these stressors for a longer periods of time can become permanently damaged. Things turned around quite well to me and am as good as new or at least I feel that way. Do take some time off, live thriftily and try out things like old hobbies, ramdom things that are not computer related. Sports/physical/nature/performance/arts/volunteering. Good luck to you!

These are two separate problems. One is the increase in productivity; the second is the application of that productivity to creating new wealth and industry. You are worried about the second not happening; this is a result of capital concentration and income inequality, which stymies investment going where it is needed. But we can't seriously pretend we are running out of useful work for people to do. A half a moment's thought should convince us otherwise. We just need to be able to allocate capital to that work.

That is why ive always been an advocate for tools as aid. Give someone a shirt, the local tailor loses out and the people become reliant on free shirts. Give them food, local farmers suffer and grow less food. But if you give them a loom? They produce and sell more shirts and fabric than ever before for cheap. Give a farmer a tractor, he farms more and produces more food and prospers from it. And there are so many other tools that could do so much. Send a lathe and a mill, now you can make your own machine parts, you can even make another lathe and mill, and perhaps a tool and die industry starts out giving jobs and produces all the other tools the locals need to survive. Need power? Well tools can build a windmill, or a generator. Need water? Tools can build you a well pump, or repair the old broken pump. Need transportation? Tools maintain your old modes of transport and builds new forms of transport. Low on materials for your tool projects? You can build mining drills, rails, mine carts, rock crushers, ore separators, ect.

Without tools, you can't build but the most basic shit out of scavenged trash. With tools, you can make scavenged trash into a goldmine of necessary materials. Industrialization is a story of building out a catalog of tools from your previous generation of tools, over and over and over again until you have every tool that everybody else has.

Make what happen exactly? C-level execs do not run ad campaigns. At most they'll defer to the CMO, who then just tells you to talk to their agency.

There are private marketplaces and other deals you can work out with agencies but this is usually for inventory against existing campaign RFPs, and comes with all of the typical creative requirements. They're not going to run an entirely custom campaign under your own terms and restrictions, not at any sustainable scale.

Again, no. Torque converters do not have gears or neutral. They are hydraulic couplings. The output shaft of the torque converter turns slower than the input shaft when the car is accelerating, and there is no fixed relation of the input shaft speed to the output shaft speed. The gears are all in the transmission after the output shaft of the torque converter.

> It's not possible to actually become a licensed/professional software engineer as of April this year, at least in Florida. Florida requires that you pass the NCEES PE exam - not sure if there are other exam vendors used elsewhere in the US - and NCEES elected to stop offering the software engineer exam citing low demand...

There's no demand because they made the process more or less impossible for developers to ever get to to the point where they take the PE exam.

First, the candidate has to pass one of the Fundamentals of Engineering exam to become an engineer-in-training. Except, whoops, there isn't a software specific FE; the most relevant one is the EE/Comp. E. exam. Take a look at the list of topics: https://ncees.org/wp-content/uploads/FE-Ele-CBT-specs.pdf Most developers aren't going to pass that even with a CS degree.

Secondly, you need 4-8 years of supervision by a licensed engineer. Again, whoops, there are barely any software developers with a PE license, so who would they get to supervise them?

Frankly, the situation was so absurd that one has to suspect that NCEES didn't want to certify software developers as PEs.
It does work.

Exactly: Google detected they were hacked by the Chinese government a decade ago ("Operation Aurora" affecting a lot of other companies including Adobe, Juniper, Rackspace, Yahoo, Symantec, Northrop Grumman, Morgan Stanley, Dow Chemical).

Google stopped allowing Windows to be used within the organisation in 2010 as a response.

I think any other organisation that continued to use Windows values features more than they value security (and I believe that is still the case: you can't secure Windows, Office or Microsoft browsers against state level actors).

I hear from multiple sides people reporting, to receive ads about topics thy only talked to friends about but never entered in a search engine.

Google has is currently as far away from their previous world famous "don't be evil" corporate culture.

Other examples are AMP where Google wants to make it harder to de-individualise URL's. This is being driven to an extend where Chrome on Android makes it harder to edit the URL.

Or games like Egress or PokemonGo, which in my opinion helps Google constantly update their WiFi SSIDs-To-GPS-location database.This database is rhen furthermore being used to track users location through a little permission called "WiFi Control", which also can not be found in the regular App Permissions settings entry.

To me WiFi-Control sound nothing like location tracking. But I have to admit, I am not a native speaker. Therefore I might be misunderstanding something.
Uber and similar ride-hailing services have not led to more efficient space or energy use. On the contrary, these services have led to serious and alarming increases in congestion and pollution and diverted funds away from public transit.

The real economics of taxi services, for example round trip costs for servicing lower density out-lying regions, implies much higher prices and lower ride inventory.

Uber and others providing an inflated amount of inventory at unsustainably low prices is not some sort of shift in transit patterns. It’s nothing but temporarily selling a dollar for fifty cents in order to compel all competitors out of the market, at which point it instantly goes right back to being just as hard to get an Uber in the suburbs as it was to get a taxi there in the 90s, because that’s precisely how the price equilibrium of that supply and demand always worked.

Non-profit organizations are lousy with this stuff, no conspiracies needed. (See the recent expose on the Southern Poverty Law Center.) More generally, fund raising for these advocacy organizations is a dirty business. I’m a card-carrying ACLU member, but I had to stop getting their email newsletter because it’s full of half truths and lies by omission calculated to build outrage and keep donor dollars flowing.

The NRA’s forays into non-2A political areas is unfortunate. But they work with the donor base they have. It’s like how the ACLU has abdicated any work on the 2A, because it’s donor base is primarily liberal.
The word "phishing" has many definitions.

One definition is tricking users into giving valuable information (such as passwords, 2FA codes, bank account details, credit card numbers, social security numbers, etc). Malware doesn't meet this definition of phishing.
> It isn't really fraud unless we start regulating and prosecuting it. And we don't, right?

I can't let this stand. Actions were right or wrong before the first regulation was written and before the first judge banged his gavel under an acacia tree. Wrong actions continue to be wrong no matter what laws and judges say.

Lying to make a sale is fraud, whether it's regulated and prosecuted or not.

According to the company that makes them, that is indeed usable for drying hair:

"For hand dryers, timers are set at 30 seconds and at 3 minutes for hair drying."
Boeing did actually design extendable landing gear for the 737 MAX-10 model, which hadn't shipped yet. That aircraft is longer. To avoid tail strikes, the rear gear becomes longer as the aircraft is taking off.

I'm sure that costs more money. If it were on all 737 MAX aircraft, perhaps the engines could be lower. It'd be like a kneeling bus that gets lower when stopped to take on passengers.

Another option would be to make the engines move. They could be folded up or slid up-forward when driving around the airport. The FAA might have issues with this though. I don't know of any aircraft that does transformer stuff while zooming down the runway.
>Technically yes, although as a specific example $100k/yr is the 80th percentile in Austin, TX

You're comparing household income to individual income. If you look at individual income, $100k/yr in Austin is much going to be much higher than 80th percentile.
Actually the assumption of population increase might not be true. A lot of countries now showing slowing population growth from having fewer children. It might be possible that we will happen to be in need of robotics to address the shrinking workforce

Oh man, I missed this app when I switched from Android to iOS. So glad it's finally on iOS!
The constraint is the FAA would see it as a new aircraft and therefore have to certify a new airframe. The very in-depth review the FAA is currently doing on the MAX was the expensive (time and money) Boeing sought to avoid.
Absolutely. Automation will increase net wealth.

But I do not believe everyone will quickly find an even better job when a factory closes because 1) popular perception aside, that is not what happened in the industrial revolution and 2) it is not what happened with globalization 3) it is suspiciously pleasant and easy belief for those who are least likely to be hurt. It's also a bit magical thinking.

And if wage depression from globalization has caused damaging ethnic and nationalist backlashes, it's not hard to imagine the multiplying effect that will come with reckless displacement due to automation.

Because people who have a continuing or sudden drop in quality of life due to events beyond their control are not going to blame themselves forever and are not going to be convinced by a rising GDP graph that leaves them further behind.

Great would be a society that everyone feels vested in and an economy that everyone can participate in. But it's hard to imagine any such plan being invented let alone honestly implemented in the foreseeable future. Are thousands of 50 year old factory workers going to get hired as a web designers? Are they going to work as Walmart greeters thinking "sure I lost my house but national wealth is up so I don't mind". So at the very least there needs to be more adequate social safety nets.
Even as somebody who doesn't so much mind their association with the GOP lately (except their unprincipled take on things the President thinks are unpopular enough to ban), they are incredibly inefficient and disappointing. The Second Amendment Foundation seems to be a lot more productive.

> But... one has to wonder if that isn't exactly the point. Is somebody intentionally spreading this stuff and trying to fuel this fire exactly because they want to sow discord among the NRA faithful?

I think it's basically certain that there are people trying to corrupt and discredit the NRA from without. The opposition would be downright foolish not to try this. It's like that cute time when Americans thought it was silly to think they were being spied on by the NSA.

Also, there's a reason why suddenly the New Yorker is concerned about NRA members getting their money's worth. ;- )

In their Recommended Stories section is an article where the subtitle leads with “In the mass-shooting era...”, despite a downward trend in the rate of death by mass public violence, including shootings; we are by no means in an era of mass shooting.
I don't understand how this is related to my comment and the comment I'm replying to, both of which you presumably just read online.
I'm not convinced. The pressure on Boeing to fix this ASAP is immense. That is not a good environment for writing safety critical software. Especially if they are doing a "broader software redesign". I don't believe that software quality can be enforced from the outside.
