It is the same headline as the "Did Disney+ get hacked?" stuff the other day. 10m+ credentials were available almost immediately because people re-use username/password combos across every site.

That's why I am pro-password managers. Even if they're imperfect, password re-use remains a major active threat (contrast that with a lot of theoreticals against password managers).

Around ten of my accounts' information has been leaked (inc. big ones like Adobe). But I don't re-use credentials so aside from an uptake in spam, it has had no impact. Typically these were services I haven't used in years.

I’m curious, as well, what Linux flavor you’re planning to use. I’ve been considering loading Maru¹ on to an old Nexus 5X, and I wonder if that’s what you have planned, too.

There’s just something about running LineageOS on an old Galaxy Tab 2 (still Android, although apparently the hardware support is phenomenal) that has me trawling eBay for cheap tablets.

I understand, but it's referencing the environment in a workplace that applies to both sexes not just women. Her complaint may have also applied to the men there, so really we should get both sides opinion shouldn't we?
No, it's not. Walking simulator is a meme handed out to games as a joke. Saying Death Stranding is "just a walking simulator" implies more than a genre. You couldn't even call SMB "just a jumping simulator" without attaching additional meaning to it.

Witcher 3 is just a walking simulator.

The proliferation of potable water will hitch-hike on other economic expansion projects in the future and (hopefully) we'll see new cost sharing models developed for public infrastructure that are more suited for the future.

The tap project is a noble effort, so nothing is taken away from it, but we're going from phonograph records to HD streaming with logistics in what amounts to a very short period of time and skipping radio, TV, casettes and DVD's in the process.

When all of the pieces come together, the ingredients for rural metropoles/metropoleis to sprout up where the will exists should provide a more reasonable approach than some of the current inferior innovations/policies/codes[1] that they currently have in place for growth and sustainability.

Energy (renewables), water (desalinated), connectivity (low orbit satellite), sustainability (new construction/models/raw materials/resources) and logistics (ML, drones, autonomous roads/vehicles) should make it a whole new ballgame (without having to destroy or burden the existing system).

I do like the fact that tap wants to test and report on water quality, but profitability trumps health. They [utility companies] probably don't want to be reminded of whats in the water. They already know.

[1]I'm more concerned with the accumulation of prescription meds, but heres a pfas nugget instead. Perhaps the expiration date has passed on public water stewardship.

>this implies that male doctors and lawyers in the 60's and 70's were less sexist than male engineers of today.

I don't see how it implies this. The more relevant question is whether STEM has higher levels of sexism than other similarly attractive fields.
I agree. Even "bad" 2FA (e.g. SMS) is better than nothing in this case. However, I suspect some would complain about needing to give a telephone number to use their new camera.
The Airflow landing page that you linked to lists many integrations but when you click on those only a small subset of them are listed in the integrations section of the docs that is linked to. I guess the docs are in need of some more work.
> (To paraphrase Justice Ginsberg, law will be “fixed” when there are nine women on the Supreme Court.)

Wait, what? Is this an argument that men are inherently unsuited to be Supreme Court Justices?

My guess is this means having 9 women on the Supreme Court is to make up for all the years there were 9 men on the Supreme Court.

I find this dangerous logic. Seeking to alternate oppression of one group versus another doesn't seem like a good long term solution, in my opinion.

By the way, thanks for your analysis about the progression of gender equality in the legal profession. That's something I didn't know about.
If you're being targeted by the government, this is something you should be aware of. Using today's convenient tech can get you locked up or killed.

However, if state persecution isn't part of your threat model, a burner is one layer of indirection that might make tracking and identification difficult for surveillance companies.
> Math is generally considered to be part of the humanities

Hm, not always. In my experience it was a B.Sc., M. Sc. and Dr. rer. nat. and in the math-nat department, but it can also be associated with philosophy and of course there is no scientific method in math.

For medicine you also have the (again country specific?) question whether a medical doctorate is comparable to a hard science one, e.g. for the purpose of grants in medical research.
I tried a few deeper cuts, and wow, this is really thorough! Has anyone noticed anything they missed?
>Yes, a dataset like that would be very interesting and I would happily play around with it for a few weeks and see what I can come up with.

Spare-time tinkerers aren't really the intended audience here:

>>The neuro data set will allow researchers to test their models with data from additional machine types, new sequence types, and different coil configurations that were not present in the previously released fastMRI knee data set. Radiologists also look for different diagnostic properties (such as contrast in texture between different neural tissue) in brain MRIs. These differences present an interesting and challenging machine learning problem to solve and will help researchers develop models that generalize to more clinical settings.

It's unlikely in the extreme that anyone in that audience will be stopped by a simple data sharing agreement. And it's also unlikely in the extreme that anyone outside that audience will know what to do with a bunch of raw k-space MR datasets. Domain knowledge is an absolute necessity with this data.
I actually like the distinction between std::size_t/std::ptrdiff_t (and even better std::vector's ::size_type and difference_type ). It makes the intent very clear.

It helps that I get to compile all my code -Wconversion.
It's not some conspiracy to pay women less. It works like this:

1. More people (women in this case) enter the profession.

2. Due to increased labor supply, pay starts to drop.

3. Men, placing a relatively higher priority on high pay, begin to avoid the profession.

That last point is sort of interesting. Men are strongly associated with their careers and level of pay. This is most of their status. It has a tremendous impact in the dating market. It is a key factor in the likelihood of divorce. Men follow the money; they don't get randomly assigned careers and they don't just follow their dreams. Men strongly seek the status of a high-paid job. To marry and start a family, that job is almost required. Women have no such trouble, so they don't need to prioritize earnings. Women can pick careers they actually enjoy.
This is a very hyperbolic take. Police do not have access to the cameras, only the server stored footage, which is both optional to share and optional to even participate in.
The Greek 'daemon' seems like a pretty accurate translation for '神'.
> I get into an accident, again, work takes a hell of a back seat.

Sure, but those are unexpected and hopefully rare events. We're talking about things that take priority over work every single day.

> > Having kids is a lifestyle choice that is at odds with other choices.

> That is self evident, what is your underlying non analogy point?

What I mean to put it bluntly is that having kids means less time for other things, including work. Make that tradeoff if you want, but don't to make the negative consequences of your choice my problem.

> > If you want society to subsidize having children, then the government should do it, not individual software teams.

> Software teams are a part of society are they not?

Sure they are, what's your point?

Society should probably help out homeless people, but that means collecting taxes and providing services, not expecting individual families to invite them into their homes and feed and clothe them, etc.

> I love programming, but I have other things in life I want to pursue

Same here, but I'm not the one complaining that a team of people who don't share that requirement isn't hiring me, bending over backwards to accommodate me, and paying me the same as their top performers.
It's really quite simple to understand, you don't have to pretend to be confused to avoid addressing the point. Here's what you did:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
I guess part of my point is that men's emotions end up coming out whether they want them to or not. In trying to suppress one type of expression, it surfaces in other ways (anxiety disguised as "high standards" or "hard working" is a huge one here).
My memory is pretty fuzzy unfortunately. I recall that one would choose their fighter, which would have different abilities (magic or fighting etc). Then both would enter the screen from opposite sides to battle. The graphics were not the best. That's about all I remember. Not much to go on!

What information is disclosed that the thief can't discover himself by driving or walking by your house?

It seems unlikely that a thief needs to see a published list of camera locations to find my house, unless for some reason he's looking specifically for houses that are protected by Ring cameras. My ring doorbell cam is readily visible from the street, so there's no secrets about placement.
> FB is actually stripping away features from our targeting system and removing inputs because we spend too much compute power ($$) driving optimizations that don't have any material impact on delivery value.

> Also, ethics. We do actually think about that a lot these days - it just took us a while to clean up short-sighted product decisions made a decade ago.

I mean, it sounds to me like the A-Team were the ones motivated enough by the technical challenge to not care about cost, ethics or the "big picture". I know plenty of "A-team" engineers like that— they're in it for the technical challenge and to prove themselves, not to be "slowed down".

>For example, women were once stereotyped as not being doctors or lawyers, but that didn't seem to stop them from joining those fields en masse. If internalized stereotyping didn't matter enough to stop them then, for those fields, why does it matter now for engineering?

The fields you mention made serious efforts to counter sexism. STEM hasn't, yet.
Is This the Last U.K. Election?
Yea, but going through the list, a lot of the products are vain rebrands. Some of which still exist in one form or another. Some haven't exactly died either, they were just absorbed into "bigger" products.

Though, RT being put out to pasture.... I had to develop an app for that arbitrary lockout piece of trash. Whoever thought of RT and whoever approved it, deserves a life-long raging case of crabs and... like... a monthly visit of dysentery.
I feel as if Microsoft has released overall far more products than Google, though I don't have a resource on hand to substantiate that claim. I think the statistic is only valuable if it's killed-per-released product.
Well that sounds like a very interesting and complex interaction to watch play out! I find sitting by my window at night and watching the cars go by a near meditative experience, difficult to leave. However I am quite able to think and articulate during that time and find the strange monotony of other lives quite the generative brain food.
> IMO taxpayers should pay their taxes simply because they are citizens and that's the law.

Following the law just because "it's the law" is the silliest reason to do so I've ever heard.
As a counterpoint, the Chinese police in Hong Kong are exactly an anonymous arm of the law (masks included), specifically because it would be harder to get locals to be so cruel to their own.

It's little surprise people want to keep at least some sovereignty local.
The Salvation Army have a good trade on used mattresses in Australia. They get them from individual donations and many of the hotels, put them through a rigorous cleaning process (that they have posters about in their stores) and sell them at a quite reasonable price.

For a person who normally can only afford a foam mattress one of the salvo's second hand inner spring mattresses is a 10 year investment that they will cherish.

Shamelessly hijacking your question because I too am trying to find a pair of games. They were text adventures that had some primitive graphics running in a low res mode. One was set on Mars exploring an abandoned(?) Base in a sci fi setting. The other was exploring an underground(?) Goblin city in a fantasy setting. Both games were probably made by the same developer because the UI was very similar between the two.

They were distributed on the cover disks of a British magazine called What Personal Computer in the early 90s.
They are not the same, and the latter does not happen with Ring cameras. Read all the articles more carefully. The issue is with the app and cloud stored footage, both of which are optional.
I think that poster is referring to STEM as a whole. Software engineering is a small subset of STEM, and I'd argue that it is, surprisingly, both the most accessible and the most lucrative.
I was curious if these terms were formally defined anyplace, looks like there's actually wikipedia articles devoted to them:

Might be worth comparing the ratio of killed products vs. supported products as well, instead of just the absolute number for the number of killed products. I dont have any data to back up this assertion, but i have a feeling that this ratio would differ very significantly between Google and MSFT.
All conversation is a continuation of psychological warfare.

It was fast and slick - WinForms (and generally VS.net) was always slow in comparison with too many jobs and options - and WPF, same as WCF, is just an abstraction nightmare (and even slower compared to WinForms).

People want simple, that's why Go is so successful these days - in many ways the enthusiasm (positive and negative) around Go reminds me of VB6.

The fact that VB6 and IDE still works (didnt know that) on modern computers is by itself an amazing thing actually.
Eh, pain is relative. If you think hospitals today are less sexist workplaces than software companies, you might pick med school.

I hope that it's clear to most people that there isn't a single reason for the disparity though. People are complicated.

The Japanese definition for 神曲 (kamikyoku) is just "incredible song" which I think is probably the intended modern Chinese definition in these contexts (I speak both).

I'm not sure if it's an example of wasei-kango [1] (Japanese-invented words being incorporated into Chinese, i.e. "phone", "bicycle", etc.), but 神曲 has been used to describe online videos of Japanese songs for at least 10 years with little descriptive meaning beyond "this is a great song" (for example, this medley of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon soundtrack from 2007 [2]).

Hmm, how do you allow for more complicated updating schemes? Like if I want to update on something other than a shallow comparison? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the dependency array seems to use shallow comparisons.

James Comey did a victory lap, claiming he was "vindicated" by the report.

Horowitz was asked in the hearing if his report vindicated Comey. He was adamant that his report vindicated no one.

There is definitely a concerted effort to completely mischaracterize the report's contents, mainly because it has proven that the complaining from the Republicans has actually been correct all along.
Interesting. I wonder if law vs CS makes much difference.

I do remember in my first CS class: about 70% of the men, and all but one or two women dropped the week after pointers were introduced.
Police can get footage from Nest cameras, indoor and outdoor, without owner permission by applying directly to Amazon, and users can't opt out of Amazon's "Rekognition" tool that is always on and alerts police when a face on their wanted list is recognized on a camera.
Your conversation quality might be noticeably different when you are doing something else and when you are not (even if you don't notice it).

Neither cameras watching gas stations nor cameras watching your front door are "police cameras".

Some cities have enough police cameras that they certainly are police cameras watching the gas station.

> People love to cite this reason, but practically speaking, it's FUD.

> Either way, lack of rename support in diff-based schema management

You're trying to polish a turd here, this isn't "lack of support" it's "it will drop objects in production."

> Catches unsafe/destructive changes in general and require special confirmation for them

Again, polishing a turd: the only way your "automation" works is through manual intervention.

> Assuming any non-trivial software deployment (multiple servers), it's impossible to execute the rename DDL at the exact same time as new application code goes live.

You can construct a view referencing the old table, and rename the table. Yes, it has to be an updateable view and you need transactional DDL, but within those constraints, it's doable.

> I'm a database expert, and among 100% of the companies I've worked at or consulted for, renames were either banned entirely or treated as a very rare special-occasion event requiring extra manual work.

If they're using a DBMS that doesn't support transactional DDL, completely understandable. If their tools are liable to drop production data due to renames, also completely understandable.

But the fact that they ban a trivial operation is a symptom of the problem with all the half solutions and snake oil in SQL schema management. It's so bad that you have large companies investing heavily in ripping out the schema entirely, which itself is just more snake oil.

In the problem space of trying to keep a schema in sync, we know that diffing leads to unacceptable answers, that is an indicator that it's the wrong conceptual basis for a correct solution.

The burden of using the current version is so low (op is in fact expending significant effort to not make the safe choice), that imposing any additional risk on others is unjustified. That kind of analysis—the burden of caution vs. the risk of not taking it—is how the law measures negligence. I’m not giving legal advice of course. But the law tracks the morality of negligence pretty closely in my opinion.
