Another indication of the super-poor state of public transport in the US.

This super-nation is so ridiculously behind in this regard in every aspect of development of public transport that you have to consider if the people in force have all their senses together.

I don't think that's anything like obstruction of justice under US law. If you were right, then so too would be recognizing a face from a wanted poster and not calling the police.

It isn't even obstruction of justice if they explicitly ask you something and you refuse to respond: https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/what-do-when-encounter...

They may be trolling, but it’s a pretty good example of statistical naïveté. What I mean by that is ignoring conditional independence even when it is obvious from common sense. Common sense tells us that living in an old house does not ‘cause’ car accidents, but it also tells us that a poor working elderly person may have a higher risk of both car accidents, and living in an old house. The dependence between the effects disappears when conditioned upon observations closer to the chain of causality.

Only in the most tautological sense - explanation has to be made in a form of narrative in order to communicate it.

We certainly know that different DNA leads to different thinking or else we would think like a chimpanzee. The question is does Neanderthal thinking live on in our modern culture. I have no idea, but it is a testable hypothesis.

I suppose in theory that there might be some non-sub-Saharan people that don’t have Neanderthal DNA just by chance, but it is unlikely.

There are also people that have far more than the average (2-3%) - for every person like your friend there are other with way more.
We made friends with a lorikeet (parrot) we named 'Percy' 11 years ago, our first one.
Him and his 'wife' (we named her 'Cruella' for obvious reasons) stayed with him for years.
We then have had - and contining now - years of their offspring.
Names are hard to find with so many offspring - But 'Buttons' is Percys' great-grand son, and is still here today with us.
When I moved in 15 years ago, there was none of this.
Now, we have a grand colalition of Magpies (corvids), Lorikeets and King Parrots that protect each other, and keep us busy if not entertained every day.
I distinctly recall texting with a friend in 2013 who was a Stanford grad student who opted for Super shuttle instead of Uber/Lyft back to his campus housing. Took him 2+hours instead of the ~30 minutes.
I'm not from the USA - however most communication software implementation are commercial systems - and don't have the same free speech constraints.

There's already ample historic precedence for requiring suppliers of goods and services to include side door access for law enforcement.

CALEA comes to mind - it requires communications system providers to include third party listening capabilities.

There are probably (not a lawyer) arguments that could be made that software is speech - and the difference between an "Information Service" vs "Communication Service".

Also, I do wonder how OSS communications software (XMMP etc) might differ under some aspects against commercial software - like Cisco Jabber (which is also XMMP).

Or OSS software written by a private company/startup. Or someone wanting to move their hobby OSS software into a startup.

I like the idea. Keep it up. The "some things" that are missing are really the basics of any HTTP server. Now it's more like something you could build a minimal REST API on. (With the need of a "real" server as proxy)
In a time when dinosaurs and birds both co-existed how do they tell the difference between dinosaur feathers and bird feathers? What are the features of feathers between these species that differentiate them?
Oh wow that's sad. I have been taking SuperShuttle for over 15 years and have always had positive experiences. Being able to schedule rides outweighed any uncertainty around how long the trips might be, particularly around busy holidays. I also appreciated how local franchises took pride in building their businesses. A shame to see it run aground on the shoals of VC subsided gig work.

Kinvolk (https://kinvolk.io), the Kubernetes Linux experts | Berlin, Bengaluru ONSITE or REMOTE | Full Time

Kinvolk is a company focused on services and products for open-source cloud native Linux technologies. While having started out 4+ years ago as a consulting company (we built rkt with CoreOS, for example), we've recently added products to the mix. The first of which is Flatcar Container Linux, our drop-in replacement for CoreOS Container Linux. Building on this, we've introduced Lokomotive, our Kubernetes distribution, a major focus of development for us atm. In addition, we're building a collection of tools for debugging and security based on BPF and other low-level Linux technologies which will be integrated with our Linux + Kubernetes stack.

Kinvolk only works on/with open source technologies and all our products will be fully open source, NOT open core.

We're also the folks behind Cloud Native Rejects (https://cloud-native.rejekts.io/) and All Systems Go! (https://all-systems-go.io/)

If you're interested in working with an expert team that fully understands the the system, is passionate about open source, and building cutting edge technologies then, by all means, apply within!

We have a number of openings in BERLIN, BEGELURU and remote:

* Technical Account Manager

* Kubernetes Operations Engineer (especially interested in this role being distributed to have follow-the-sun support)

* Cloud Infrastructure Engineer

* Linux Software Engineer

* Events coordinator

* Visual and Brand Designer

The key thing to understand about doing this is to set the state in a context, and do the displaying in another component. There's no point in trying to get the component to re-render when the time value updates. That's the wrong way to program react.

It was a years ago, I think there's a... muscularity threadmill that maps with the growth of fitness social media in the last few years that started prioritizing towards size via functionality and strength. It started with relatively attainable fightclub look, aesthetics that is preferred by women, but people who enjoy fitness culture rarely stops there (it's a comparably easy and attainable body type) so the trend gradually shifted towards getting bigger and stronger to impress other audiences in fitness culture (read: men and a revival of machismoism). You also have the parallel influence outside of fitness of hollywood action stars getting bigger as well. I could be completely misreading the trend, but male aesthetic standard changes over time.

This is part of why the "share the road" and "all have a role to play" narratives are so offensive to people who cycle and walk. The people choosing these active transportation options are already overwhelmingly the ones picking up the slack and preventing driver inattention and carelessness from becoming serious crashes.

We don't get a choice in this— we do it because the alternative is being killed in the street, and then when people actually are hit, we get to hear smarmy commentary about how it wouldn't have happened if they'd just looked both ways, or been wearing brighter clothing, or chosen a different time of day to go out for a walk:

https://usa.streetsblog.org/2019/03/12/we-need-to-change-the...

But it's hard to even build a case out of this that will be accepted by people who don't have that first hand experience of being the vulnerable road user. Most places in North America, small driver errors are only barely punished if at all, and there's pretty much universally zero effort to track close calls involving people walking and cycling.
Essentially (or, "cladistically"), birds _are_ dinosaurs, and even if you restrict yourself to "non-modern dinosaurs", where do you draw the line?
I've been a Vivaldi user for over a year now. Mostly I just prefer the UI. You have a lot of options, especially compared to Chrome's almost zero. In particular I like to have the tabs stacked vertically along the side, so they're more manageable in quantity. Otherwise, its just Chromium, so my only complaint is the tendency for sites to nag/scare you about using an 'outdated' browser. Occasionally Youtube will temporarily break their UI in some minor, Vivaldi-only way, but otherwise I've never been blocked or had a functional problem with a site.
It's in the article, along with photographs and CT scans:

"We can be sure of the source because the vertebrae are not fused into a rod or pygostyle as in modern birds and their closest relatives," he explained.

"Instead, the tail is long and flexible, with keels of feathers running down each side."

...

The feathers lack the well-developed central shaft - a rachis - known from modern birds. Their structure suggests that the two finest tiers of branching in modern feathers, known as barbs and barbules, arose before the rachis formed.
I don't think it's hard to see the flexibility. But I think it depends what kind of person you are. Do you think laws are social constructs or rules that must be followed? I for one am in the former camp. Laws were constructed to keep us safe as a society. I do like living in a safe society, but let's be real that laws and up being catch all's and can be abused.

As an example: Jay walking across an empty street. It's great in many places and times, but others it's a hindrance and just so we frequently break it. But when I was in high school I remember at the end of the month cops would cite kids crossing a not so busy street with a fair walk to the crosswalk. Who cares? Such a thing isn't important and doesn't make us safer. We don't even correct our behavior when caught doing those things because we don't even recognize them as wrong.

So yeah, I agree. We need to be flexible as a society. No one likes sticklers or narcs.

I don't think what I'm imagining is too far from what many farmers who do it for a living aim to provide for their animals as I've known them from where I grew up. Whether or not such operations can scale to meet current demands we have for meat is another question but we should certainly strive to improve the welfare of animals across the board. My main point wrt to the parent is that for animals in the wild life might be more "natural" but it's not necessarily a better experience for them just for that reason.
I think you might be right. I've been in those positions, too. And yeah, I could code in the evenings then, because I'd basically done all my actual work by about midday (and then spent 5 hours twiddling my thumbs and looking busy while wondering why I was wasting my life on this shit). But I never lasted long in those positions, I was too obviously unhappy.
Let's face it, Ridesharing ate their lunch. I was a religious SuperShuttle user until Lyft showed up - it usually cost me roughly the same amount to take a Lyft shared, I didn't have to wait on the right van to show up, and instead of winding through taking a half dozen other people home first, it often takes me straight home, or at most with a couple of stops.

It's a hard world for traditional scheduled taxiing to be in, when you can summon a vehicle to you on demand.
You can but it doesn’t actually guarantee a ride. They don’t actually use it.

I am from Europe. I keep hearing the same things. Although it is anecdotal and from other people. At times it seems women have it constantly against each other focusing a lot of their time on social power plays. Myself I work in an environment with 97 percent male ratio so I do not have enough experience to comment on it myself. I would rather have it 50/50 at this point though. I think it would be less boring.

Could you explain why you think the number of hybrid offspring of Neanderthals currently living prevents Neanderthals being a different species? This is like saying that if there are a large number of mules alive that donkey’s can’t be considered a different species to horses.

You sure about that? I feel like there are plenty of folks on here whose only computer is a MacBook
> I think the old way is simpler in the sense of building on fewer concepts, and therefore allowing an easier learning curve

I would disagree with that premise. From my own experience and from having mentored developers on class components (so like ~7 data points), I'd say it's far easier to reason about state flow with hooks than lifecycle methods. That's an important point, because I see far more bugs with incorrect or incomplete state flow than I see with component lifecycles.

Hooks are simply easier to reason about. With hooks, you read the code top to bottom. Then, something changes either with the data or in response to user input, and then you read the code top to bottom again with that new state.

The only learning curve there is to understanding the basic premise of hooks is that "if this value is different from the last time you read the code top-to-bottom, then re-read/execute this code block"

> If using hooks allowed developers to avoid knowing the React component lifecycle, an argument could be made that they provide a simpler alternative, but I don't think anybody is going to get very far without being forced to learn about the component lifecycle. If someone were to say, "The React lifecycle is hard to understand, so use hooks instead," that would be a false promise.

That is exactly my premise, and I don't think it's a false one. Since moving to hooks, I can't remember the last time I had to care about the React lifecycle. Again, the mental model is "Read the code top to bottom; something changes; read the code from top to bottom" ad infinitum.

Yes there are situations where class components provide more intimate control (componentWillUnmount comes to mind since I'm not aware of a hook for that), but are we really optimizing the majority of our code for exceptional cases?

Another data point: I haven't seen functional components turn into a complete mess from inattentive developers in the same way I've seen class components turn into indecipherable setState tangled messes. The only time I've experienced the pressure of sifting through component lifecycles under the pressure of debugging a time-sensitive production isssue is because I was using component lifecycles in the first place. It's a moot point.
