Outklip is a Chrome extension with a few additions compared to QuickTime:

* It lets you record camera along with screen, so you can be seen in the video. Gives videos a personal touch.

* Videos on Outklip are automatically uploaded to cloud storage, which lets you share them via a link instantly after recording. Saves you the step of uploading the video to gdrive, dropbox, etc. before sharing. The video creator can see who viewed and when.

* An easy to use video editor, which lets you add text labels, remove parts of video, crop region of video, convert to gif, etc.

* A YouTube integration that lets you post videos quickly and easily.

One thing Outklip lacks is the ability to record a selected portion of the screen, which Quicktime supports.

Hope this helps.

>> (Why this gendered insulting is okay when it’s aimed against men, I don’t know.)

> Men collectively have enough power to handle a funny critical term without risk of being marginalized.

What does men collectively have enough power even mean? It's not like all the men in the world work together to decide the fate of all the poor, powerless women. Where is black men's power? Where is the homeless white men's power? And why should risk of being marginalized factor into it? Insulting a very large fraction of humanity for the actions of a small subset shouldn't be OK no matter who it is. Would insulting all Muslims for the actions of a few fringe sects be OK? I mean, they should collectively have enough power to handle it, they even run whole countries!

Decry the actions of bros all you want, but why expand that to saying all men do this as "mentrification" implies? Doing so is both inaccurate and hurtful to many people for no reason other than feeling smug that some man (who most likely isn't very privileged) finally got their comeuppance.

"Easy money" is always a honey pot for all kinds of drama, including SJWs who want a cut, can't really admit it as blunt avarice and need something prettier to dress it up in.
Good question! It means that the probably of finishing in the next increment of time is always the same. Just got up to the teller? There's, say, a 20% chance that you're done within the next minute. Been at the teller's desk for 30 minutes already? Still a 20% chance that you're going to be wrapped up in the next minute.
It seems there will be constant battles until enough of society is educated enough where they know what they will take a stand for, accept, and what they won't - in part so they are able to elect politicians who are the gatekeepers, on "both sides" - who will eliminate and watch, protect against these efforts or mechanisms of bad actors. The first step is "getting money out of politics" - which is likely an impossible task, why I like Presidential candidate Andrew Yang's Democracy Dollars proposal, giving $100/year for eligible voters to contribute to political candidate of their choice - which will wash out lobbyist money 8:1 - meaning $5 billion from lobbyists will be countered by $30 billion of resources from voters; at minimum it will facilitate not just the narrative that mainstream media and the two-party system has been able to control with establishment politicians.
Never in my life would I have imagined a population expecting the advertising companies to police the truth.
I had a similar reaction when in a business meeting and one of the company reps said he was "Opening the Kimono".

I actually don't want Facebook removing 'fake news.' There are, of course, some obvious examples of fake things spreading around. But what about the less obvious examples? Where do we draw the line?

Social media companies should not be the arbiters of truth. I don't want Facebook or Google deciding for us what truth is. If the speech is illegal, like defamation or direct calls to violence, it should be taken down. Other than that, falsehood should be countered with truth rather than removal.

If you look at Fox News vs CNN, you'll see completely different versions of 'truth'. Any 'fact' these days can be labeled as fake news or a conspiracy theory. Both sides are doing it. But it would be far worse if there were only one version rather than two.

Brewerys usually have dozens of beers. If it is predominantly IPA, then that's because it's selling like hotcakes. Personally, I don't really care for the taste. I can take it or leave it. But if I'm looking to buy >$10 beers, I'm going for the highest ABV which is going to be an IPA. Sometimes you get two for one, essentially.

You can't even trust bartenders to pour proper wells these days, charging $13 for an 8oz glass of Coca Cola and a drop of well brand just so you can see them reach for the bottle. The IPA fits in line with my boozehound on a budget lifestyle and always is the stated ABV.
Question. What evidence would it take to convince you that there are real biological differences?

In the hypothetical, yes. Absolutely. Social differences can explain a lot of what look like biological differences.

The opposite is also true. Biology may cause large differences.

These two explanations are also not necessarily in conflict. Biological factors may work through social dynamics. For example hormones can change our actions which affects our immediate social environment at impressionable ages.

That said, evidence suggests that testosterone levels during puberty affects our spatial reasoning abilities for the rest of our lives. Given the very large difference in testosterone levels between men and women, this suggests a biological explanation of the measured gender difference.

It's at home and I'm at work so I can't look at it right now, but it's one of their newer 4K UHD TVs with webOS. I tried it on the guest wifi for a couple of days to see what it would be like, and while it wasn't bad (like I couldn't look you in the eye and say "this sucks, don't use it!"), it just wasn't as good as an external video source. There's no reason it couldn't have a perfectly fine hardware video decoder that's as nice as one you'd find in an external player. Still, its SoC and other support hardware just isn't going to be as nice as what you'd find in a dedicated box. Maybe the network stack isn't as optimized because the CPU has to handle a lot of stuff in software. Or maybe its OS's memory allocator isn't as quick. Or insert a thousand other things that might make a TV's dirt-cheap-as-possible SoC handle all the housekeeping around keeping the decoder fed with data as efficient and smooth as possible.

And as others have pointed out, you're pretty much stuck with what it ships with. If my Apple TV breaks or gets old and unsupported, I can trivially switch to a Roku. If the SoC in my TV gets old and unsupported, there isn't jack I can reasonably do about it other than throw out the whole TV and get a new one.
This is an interesting idea. Sort of the inverse of a web app. Part of the problem with the cloud for large datasets (ie genomics) is getting the computation close enough to the data (the UI being the third leg of the stool). If you could upload small processing scripts (or ebpf/wasm) to the exact node where the data lives in real time, it might open up some novel techniques.

Kind of like current serverless tech but instead of running at the edge, you run on the storage node.

EDIT: removed statement about network speed vs ssd speed. Pretty sure I was way off.

> if these were truly easy jobs someone would have figured that out and won by hiring cheap developers with non-traditional backgrounds

Note that the same argument works as evidence against recruiting bias and pay disparity. Discriminating against people or paying them less due to factors unrelated to job performance is leaving money on the table. Such discrimination persisting would imply that the market is very inefficient in this aspect.
My uncharitable pet theory is this: a certain class of people who are deeply unhappy with themselves don't like to see other people enjoying things they don't like or understand because they themselves have not filled this void in their own lives. Because these people need to seek out confirmation from a larger group on everything they do to compensate for their own lack of of self perceived self worth, and because gender or race are the largest groups available, they need to frame everything in term of a group struggle regarding race or gender to guarantee there is a built in audience to cheer them on at every step and reaffirm their worth and place in the social hierarchy.

It's gross.

Honestly for young children I wouldn't want any of the girls to become software engineers. Most Software Engineers including myself are friendly but also grumpy, nerdy and annoying, with poor communication skills and an unhealthy lifestyle. For some reason for men its OK because all they do is work, but for women I'd rather my daughters have more human contact and nicer environment - esp one without developers in it. Yeah its sexist when I write it down but that's how I'm sure a lot of parents feel, which is one reason why there aren't so many women at the entry to the pipeline.

I'm not arguing against proper research being done.

You realize that there are, and you can see, before and after imagery - whether ultrasound, x-ray, or MRI - that is used to see the physical trauma of the area being treated, treating it, and then seeing the healing that's occurred with imagery afterward, right? I'm guessing your limited sources don't actually share that information with you based on your lack of investigating any of this while being so dismissive, and counter arguing points I've not been making.

What I was warning of is regulatory capture that I've learned about directly from the legitimate doctors (not all are I'm sure) that are at the forefront of regenerative medicine, some who have been doing research on using stem cell for 18+ years now already.

I understand your skepticism - maybe dive in deeper into different sources and have just a little bit of curiosity as to the legitimacy of what I'm saying.
Let's say you added friends on Facebook by entering their email addresses (or phone numbers, social security numbers, any unique identifiers). That list of emails is certainly your property and you should be able to export it. It would also be usable with another service, spurring competition and so on.

However, a lot of friend adding is searching by name and disambiguating by photos, or adding someone who is a friend of a friend. In these cases, what fields are in the contact list export?
Obviously you've never driven on the roads in the nation's capital.
they're basically saying there's a vast oversupply of tech talent in Europa and because they can't get hired by legitimate tech companies, they start working for criminal enterprises in hacking, etc. too many smart people in the world, not enough opportunities :(

Suing your former (or current) employer is usually a lose-lose proposition, since there really isn't a resulting situation where you remain employable (even if you somehow, miraculously, manage to win against your extremely well-funded and well-represented opposition.)

Thank you, the difference between talc and baby powder wasn’t obvious for me (especially as a non-native). Quoting Google:

“Talc is a clay mineral composed of hydrated magnesium silicate with the chemical formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2.”
Some quick googling shows that they did come out with a cornstarch based variety but you have to explicitly look and find that. The J&J website lists the ingredients for Baby Powder as "Talc, Fragrance".

Aside: We have Scylla Cloud. It runs on AWS. Our next major release includes LWT and CDC, so any major gaps will be closed soon. And yes, we're looking at Cassandra 4.0 closely.

In some ways, we will implement features similarly to Cassandra but subtly and importantly different. Example: We do both local and global secondary indexes (Cassandra only has local). Also, our CQL LIKE function is closer in implementation to SQL LIKE than to Cassandra's. And so on.

btw: ScyllaDB just got $25M in new funding in September 2019. We're doing fine financially.
Well, there you go. I probably should hire interns and your comment gives me more clarity. Thank you for that.

It would seem this is correct. From the docs: https://github.com/golang/dep/blob/master/docs/FAQ.md#why-is...

There are two things that really slow dep down. One is unavoidable; for the other, we have a plan.

The unavoidable part is the initial clone. ... Fortunately, this is just an initial clone - pay it once, and you're done.

The other part is the work of retrieving information about dependencies. There are three parts to this:

* Getting an up-to-date list of versions from the upstream source

* Reading the Gopkg.toml for a particular version out of the local cache

* Parsing the tree of packages for import statements at a particular version
The first requires one or more network calls; the second two usually mean something like a git checkout, and the third is a filesystem walk, plus loading and parsing .go files. All of these are expensive operations.

----------------

For context, in comparison, Cargo has the same #1 problem. But for #2, the information on all dependencies is stored in the index itself; this means that Cargo can figure out what dependencies you need without any network calls at all, let alone downloading, git checkout, and filesystem walk.

I do not know how go mod compares, off the top of my head.

The desire for diversity is not for its own sake.

Recruiting people that 'fit the job' leads to a mono-culture. Besides being unfair, this is bad for companies. It means you get collective blind-spots, collective hype-trains. Moreover, you reduce the effective hiring pool. Because, if you have a mono-culture then there is significant disruption to adding things outside the mono-culture. This reduction in the hiring pool means there is a lot of talent left on the table.

This means you hit a local maximum that is not a global one. Trying to move to the global maximum means moving away from the local maximum for a while.

> Moreover, you can’t complain about so-called systemic sexism or racism when your policy is to not recruit white, asian or men that could fulfill the job precisely because of their race/sex.

You can however complain about systemic disadvantages conferred to women and people who aren't Caucasian and have a policy to prefer people who are women or not Caucasian.
Especially if you think that these people would have a positive effect on your company.

excellent article about the flaws of mckinsey as an establishment. it's true that their grift is inexcusable, amoral, and a burden to humanity -- but the OP covered that. the biggest myth surrounding mckinsey is that they're competent.

my favorite part about people from mckinsey has been that they're stunningly incapable. need some quick research done? after a lot of hand-holding, you'll be given an uninsightful and dubiously comprehensive summary of the mainstream view on the topic of your choice and a pivot table you didn't want or need, roughly 10 days after you needed it. you won't need to proofread the report, of course. but that isn't what you cared about anyway.

need something obscure and complex deeply analyzed and fully understood in an insightful way? again, you'll get some flashy combination of excel and powerpoint shit you don't need or ask for, maybe even ahead of schedule, but you'll also get an irrelevant speech about whatever tangentially topical prestigious person/institution the mckinsey person recently bumped elbows with. you'll also realize that the person working on the thing you wanted doesn't really have any understanding of the thing you wanted them to understand at all -- they're just regurgitating whatever they could find without analysis.

however, they've all been imminently presentable people who can articulate themselves clearly and appear to be very serious. this has been my experience with no fewer than 4 former employees -- all of whom were hired to perform tasks exactly like one would expect a business management consultant to be capable of -- but take it with a grain of salt anyway.
Mousing over doesn't work on mobile, of course. But "Terms" is a link, so tapping it on mobile works.

I've never heard this term before, but it's perfect. The implicit assumption that certain capitalist economic theories are literally the real world (rather than limited and imperfect models) is something I've been noticing more and more, but never had a term for.

> wherever you try to improve the pipeline, you cannot expect to make things better than they are at the input of your pipe segment.

But that's basically just complaining that there's no quick and easy fix to your hiring problem. Well, too bad, maybe it actually is a really hard problem that you're going to have to work really hard at for a long time. If there was some relatively trivial solution like "have all hiring managers do this diversity webinar" then I'm sure the problem would've been solved already.

In other words, to the extent that there may be a pipeline problem, that is your problem.

My hot take is that if you can automatically detect meaningful bugs or author fixes, you need to level up your abstraction.

I think these things make the most sense for Java and Go where there tends to be lots of repetition and lower-order programming patterns.

One of the most effective ways to make devs less “grumpy nerdy and annoying” is to inject the dev community with voices that are different. There must be bottom-up pressure for there to be positive change.
