Here's the reality though, every woman who steps up and admits publicly is probably going to get harassed. Some fuckheads on the internet are going to bother her and harass them. I imagine the # of public complaints is going to be pretty low.

There are more (visible) LGBT people though, so statistics should adjust for that. Comparing also the type of crime reported today vs fifty years ago shows a very positive trend, I'd assume.

Oh god, I have never seen a datasheet like this https://www.atlas-scientific.com/_files/_datasheets/_probe/E...
As someone who has published a lot of peer reviewed physics papers none of how this is presented feels rigorous. It’s fine to muse about the “what if” here but they don’t present this work that way, in my opinion, as they appear to be reinforcing their work with witnesses and not science.

Nothing really wrong with that in general but personally I’d rather see an attempt to dismiss as many other possibilities as possible.

I would love to see a thorough analysis and understanding of how the sensor pod works, as well as the software it runs to see if it could be contributing to anomalous measurements in the HUD. An exploration of any local environmental data, astrological, optical, and chemical reasons something may appear the way it does in the sensor data.

I’d much prefer a release of the entire data set of raw sensor information along with it.
I want you to set out the “unwritten hierarchy” as you see it, and if possible why you think it’s in that form.

“How do you see” is admittedly not that clear. I just want to know what it is.

They can compete in offering a better product/service, instead of with a secret client list. Advertising itself is about connecting buyers and sellers - so making that information public would make the market all the more efficient! What's good for the goose and all that.

Besides, the world is drowning in ads. Any downside for advertisers is an undiluted upside for society at large.

Obama did basically what Cambridge Analytica did. To this date I don't understand why the media reacted so differently to both situations.

Edit: See link in response for an explanation. IMO I'm still uncomfortable with how they got data of friends, but that's about it. However, this does not refute the above point that Obama didn't heavily benefit from Facebook.

Obviously 3 is effective at what it does but it's basically the definition of putting someone on blast in front of millions of people. It's bullying on a supermassive scale.

- For every bad person that's had their terrible opinions aired in public there's a right wing talk-show host that users RTs to ruin the lives some small time LGBT podcaster or youtuber with their fanbase.

- If the person is big enough to take the heat you've just given them an even bigger platform for their ideas.

- In general I don't think anyone deserves this even if their views are shitty.

There is a nuance to his/her comments that may be being lost.

When an airliner goes down, the airline, the pilots union and the airline manufacturer all point fingers.

That is what happens. When Boeing says we should use "average pilots" there is subtly in the statement that assigns blame.

Boeing should have said, "we should use pilots who are trained through normal training procedures, rather than over trained test pilots."

That statement would not have assigned blame and OP is probably correct that the statement choice was intentionally designed to shift blame back to the pilots.
I can't easily tell by looking at the code what the actual exploit is or why it can't be patched in a new version of the bootloader.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but I think this is a good illustration of the news dynamic.

Everyone has their own opinion.

Everyone lives in a world where "everyone I know agrees with me on this!"

Everyone is stressed because maybe some others disagree.

And then we all fall into a pattern of engaging in almost meaningless arguments about these issues with each other. Causing even more stress.

I think what the above exchange demonstrates is that unfortunately, "politics", or whatever you want to call it, really is stressful and contentious to the point of being dangerous to society even at the local level. It's amazing how big this problem is.

Yes of course context and circumstance matters but my point is that this "respect" thing that we are talking about requires a bit of empathy. And now that we have established that you have been clearly disrespected maybe you can go to your feelings that came when that happened, anger, fear, sadness I don't know and then imagine that the person you refer to by a pronoun that they don't relate to feel those feelings, even though you think that they shouldn't feel that way. Wouldn't it be respectful of you honor their wishes despite your opinion that this is a "very dangerous and toxic ideology" and an "overarching extension of individualism" (did you mean overreaching though?). Or do you just say "Fuck their feelings, I've been through worse, they should be glad it's 'only this'"?

Would be semi-impossible given that half the comments shown on a Twitter “thread” aren’t really comment-objects, but rather just their own tweets sitting on someone else’s timeline that have @ed you in them and twitter figured out which thread to attach them to by heuristic. Sure, in theory, you could turn off the heuristic—but you’d still see them just fine if you did a global search for your @handle.

Or are you suggesting disallowing what is essentially “allowing people to refer to you on their own blogs”?

> - The verbosity can be annoying at first, but it forces you to think hard about everything, and when I come back to Objective-C code years later, I've no issue remembering what the hell I was doing there

This this this. I love how it forces the verbosity. It makes it so easy to understand.

> - People complain about brackets, but they just... don't matter. It's a syntax. You either deal with it or don't - you don't see me writing Lisp because I find the syntax annoying, which is fine.

I really don't mind the brackets. If you structure your code right, is not even that big of a deal.

> - Message passing in ObjC is so optimized that it probably can't get much faster, and anyone acting like it's slow has a potentially skewed understanding of this

Not just this, but I love how you can send messages to nil and it doesn't crash, or you can define a method in code and it runs.

The reason Twitter became big was coincidental more than anything else. It became the defacto tool used in the Iranian protests against Ahmedinejad in summer 2009 (and again in 2011 during the ME-wide uprisings) as the regime had blocked Facebook to keep a lid on international awareness. The use of Twitter gathered a ton of foreign media attention as there was no other source of primary information.

And almost overnight, Twitter went from an obscure "microblog" (nobody's used that term in years) to "the pulse of what's happening now".

The cable news media (and digital media startups a few years later) were a willing partner in its rise. Embedding people's tweets in their stories gave them the ability to generate "news" to fill their 24-hour programming at a fraction of the cost of doing investigative journalism. The latter is by its nature lengthy, wrapped in secrecy and doesn't always result in a scoop. Basically all the things that a ratings and ad-driven industry couldn't care less about.

Throwaway for obvious reasons. This is not an appropriate role of government and I'm glad Gingrich closed it down.

The government is not "us" as former president Obama and many HN readers believe. It is a entity separate and apart from the people it claims to represent and therefore its size and role should be extremely limited. Any representation it claims to provide can be easily proven wrong under scrutiny, if only the educated elite would bother to do so.
To elaborate, I have never felt targetted or fear because of the color of my skin, sexual orientation, gender, or so on. It is a somewhat foreign concept for me.

In addition, Mr. Vlaming refused to comply with administrators' directives to follow division policies. During the public hearing before the school board, Mr. Vlaming again stated that he would not comply with these directives.

As a DC Area resident for 25+ years, I have met many federal government employees, some in professional settings, and many in casual settings.

They remind me of Journalists. Most journalists I've met are not centrists in their personal lives. But in their professional lives, they try (they're not perfect, they are human) to stay impartial, but some of your bias will definitely leak into things.

But most federal agencies are simply too large and bureaucratic for individuals to push their own political agendas. (Not talking about the leadership that's appointed by each administration, but career employees). And it's been my informal experience that their hands are too often (rightly) tied by the laws and regulations of the day, in exactly what they can do. So this idea of non-partisan people truly being partisan is often true at an individual level, but generally false at an agency level.

And they do take the non-partisan side of their jobs very seriously.

Ok. Now I understand. Read my comment again. We're talking about hypotetical person A who claims that another hypothetical B person who wants to be called by a ridiculous pronoun is disrespectful.

I said that it is A who doesn't know what respect is.

John deGoes said "Clojure developers ... consciously stay inside the Clojure community because they love the language and ecosystem" and I think that's pretty interesting – Clojure has like this event horizon where if you cross it, you become so attached to it that you never leave. It's like a little black hole that is already self-sustaining – it can only grow, it will never die, and it can happily wait for opportunity.

We think of hockey stick tech adoption curves as smooth exponentials, but that's not actually true. Hockey sticks demonstrate COMPLIMENT EFFECTS, which is where the latent potential for growth is suddenly activated by an external trigger. An example is broadband/youtube, described by VC Chris Dixon here: http://cdixon.org/2009/09/10/non-linearity-of-technology-ado... Another is smartphones and smartphone apps. Ruby/Rails. Scala/bigdata.

Our goal at http://www.hyperfiddle.net is to use the low-code movement to trigger complement effects in Clojure.
Yeah, but it has taken like... forever, in a sense.
It was in many ways quite the head start they had.

DTrace for example, that stuff is proper. Great to see whats happening with BPF on Linux these days.

I guess it speaks to the engineering efforts behind it all. Not an easy feat to integrate or bolt on.

Interesting times ahead and great work, my favorite community! :)
Or, in other words, nothing like a sparkline. This visualization is useful for gauge-like displays. Sparklines suck at communicating scale or proportion or context if the context is anything other than recent historical values. I could see a sparkline — or better yet, a simple yet properly labeled line graph -- complementing a bullet chart to show historical data. If something can effectively complement another thing, then they probably are not basically the same thing.

> It seems to be another golden age for iOS jailbreaking has came!

There is much, much less reason to jailbreak these days than in the iPhone 1 - 5 days. Unlocked iPhones are easy to get. Apple has copied a tremendous amount of features, and with iOS 13 having both dark mode and a fixed volume HUD even more reasons (Noctis / Eclipse and SmartVolumeControl2) are gone. And those, along with CallBarXS (call bar instead of fullscreen calls) and Jellyfish (weather on your lockscreen) are by far the most popular tweaks. I suspect at least the fullscreen calling will be redone in iOS 14.

Theming and game emulators will probably never come to the App Store, but those are even more niche. Terminal emulators and Python environments are already in the store. That leaves.. SSHing into your phone I guess, which is mostly a gimmick.

That's not to say the wild wild west wasn't fun back then. I remember both the Yellowsn0w and Redsn0w periods of jailbreaking vividly. Icy (a Cydia alternative) dying, being revived, and dying again. Down the nostalgia rabbit hole we go..

So am I and I often come off as awkward with a list of misinterpretations to the point of having a "do not interact with this person as they won't understand" list to avoid it.

His behaviour is typical of someone with an foot on the spectrum and I don't see too much oddity in his behaviour. He's obsessed with meaning of words, comes off the wrong way, seemingly no social manners by most standards yet it's incredibly consistent which hints to different interpretations of social interaction.

His behaviour isn't "problematic" in this case, rather, it's correct in a desire for exactness.

do you need to work or not?

3 people can live like kings in most of the western hemisphere, thailand, etc. on $20K a year, or live decently on $10K a year. you won't be moving locations often since that tends to be more expensive than just "living" but you can definitely do a stint abroad on a few thousand.

if you need to work, get a remote setup either via contract or remote company, understanding you'll probably need to work a lot less given your necessary expenses.
How would the ability to go fishing in a commercial DNA database do anything to fix that situation? I can't imagine any situation in which the ability for police to rummage around in the trash and test spit on coffee cups against 23andME would stop your problem.

You're just scaremongering. You have a policing problem for sure, but simple video or eyewitness reports would solve your problem. There's no additional need for the power to perform dragnet searches that can and do drag innocent people into the justice system.

> You're arguing that defending a statutory rapist isn't supporting pedophilia

Wrong.

I'm saying that Stallman never defended a statutory rapist.

He tried to defend the protest from the backlash of using the wrong terms and a dead person from an accusation that is hard to prove anyway now that he's dead.

Statutory rape is just a safer option given the circumstances.

BTW defending a statutory rapist is not supporting pedophilia or any attorney who defended an alleged (there is no official accusation yet) statutory rapist was also supporting pedophilia?
