>I suspect you'd find it quite ridiculous to have to pick up my slack as I have to run at 5pm to practice with my bandmates

I suppose it depends what the context of "pick up the slack" means but, in general, I'd find it perfectly normal for a co-worker to take off at 5pm for an evening activity, family-related or otherwise.

I do tons of work-related travel and the like. I also don't do nights and weekends work day-to-day. Work emergencies happen (as do odd-hour conference calls) but it's rare I'll schedule evening activities around work when I'm not traveling.
I worked with a few women in software development. 2 of them separately told me they liked working in an all men team more than working with women. "Men are more honest and straightforward, women more jealous and backstabbing". Their words, not mine.

But since the whole upheaval of women in workplaces that flowed to Europe from US, I have the feeling that this sentiment has changed.
I don't really think that would save crackers must time compared with a signing up manually to find the password requirements.

I know from personal experience. The issuing bank will state they are not responsible for damages etc etc. Maybe you might win if the cardholder admits to stealing or smoking in a room AND admits to knowing about the fine, but that's never going to happen.
That's the beauty of it being published on Github. I can look at the project and see if it was just a `git push` of something meaningless or if it's actually well thought out and demonstrates ability.
Being able to check on children remotely are not a small value to most working parents, or at least, not particularly smaller than most tech improvements in life.
Additionally, you can write your own hooks that invoke redux hooks internally and hence provide reusability and separation of concerns.
The gift-bringing behavior of domestic cats is not well understood. The "incompetent hunter" hypothesis is, well, just a hypothesis. I don't think any particular assumption of ineptitude is required on the cats' part; Occam's razor says that they're simply doing what they think is their part in keeping their family unit well-fed.

There's also a lot of really weird niche products in the business software list, like the Microsoft Stat Pack (literally just some government data on a CD-ROM), or Dynamics RMS Headquarters (a set of tools for managing a retail business).

Microsoft Works was always an odd duck -- a cut-down relative of Office (except not actually Office) for home users. Merging this into Office was a sensible decision that should have happened many years ago, TBH.
Do the cameras talk to a Ring backend even if you choose not to upload footage? The knowledge that a camera exists near the scene of a crime can be enough information to get a warrant for your privately stored footage.

Most people purchase Ring cameras for the cloud integration aspect, anyway.
I've heard from relatives that Microsoft MapPoint made a good tool for road trips. I always wanted to try it.

Sure. Do you think that there are many people who both (a) agree with the registration requirement in the first place and (b) think that it should apply to men only?
This always really messes with me. We have a tendency to view our current civilization as permanent, but we could easily lose all of this progress with a few well-timed famines and be reduced back to barely-bronze-age tribes in the span of a few decades.

We could collapse, nearly entirely disappear and face another genetic bottleneck event, then have to rediscover all of our current society some two or three thousand years in the future and the Universe wouldn't even have ticked a single second in the grand scheme of things.
Really? Below is a list of the top 8 most dangerous jobs in the US. Which ones do you think would have equal gender representation if there was no sexism?

1 - Logging workers

2 - Fishers and fishing workers

3 - Aircraft pilots and flight engineers

4 - Roofers

5 - Refuse and recyclable material collectors

6 - Structural iron and steel workers

7 - Truck drivers

8 - Farmers, ranchers and agricultural managers
I'm the author of the collection. Thanks all for taking a look. Over the years, I've gotten a good bit of traffic from HN and was glad for it. Hope the writing has been useful. Cheers!
I think they mean just "encryption". The argument is over whether facebook can store encrypted messages. "Warrants" really have nothing to do with the discussion, afaik.
> Investigators need to do their jobs and chase every lead they can to catch criminals.

Do they really though? This is the question.

Is there no other way to live peacefully and be good to one another without an overarching busy-bodied state apparatus causing perpetual fear even among the innocent?
Wow, those are some pretty talented animals.
Be careful, you might hear from IP lawyers if you get even a little bit of traction.
Of course there is the question whether a company's goal should be to be around forever or be excellent for some time.
Anecdotal but at previous job I interviewed quite a lot and found that java devs were as good on coding sessions but did worse on architecture and design / systems. Not particularly surprising really
Guns are for killing people. Why do you think that guns are an acceptable example when discussing the safety requirements of consumer goods?
"Men in general, are more aggressive and assertive when it comes to pay increases."

Isn't there a study that said women ask for pay raises at the same rate as men, but they are granted them less often?
Perhaps I'm in the minority, but I can't say I find "Instagram Face" to be attractive at all. It looks ridiculously unnatural, and evokes the same feeling as those ultra-SEO'd mostly contentless sites that flood search results.
Great way to convey a dense topic! Thanks for sharing!
Possibly, but seed sellers put farmers into a corner and essentially force them to use their proprietary seeds. So as with everything else wrong in the world, good ol' capitalism wins again.
Five people is pretty large for the first phase of a research project. If they come up with something good Twitter can add more people later.
Having spoken with people who have worked on the FB ads team, and having heard stories of how extensive FB's tracking is, this post seems disingenuous and personally I wouldn't be surprised if the account is sponsored by FB.
>The police can ask nicely for the video footage, and if you don't cooperate, they can easily get a warrant to obtain the potential evidence from Ring.

Or they could get the warrant to obtain the video directly from you....they just have 1 more option when a 3rd party vendor is involved that has a copy.

It doesn't matter if it is Ring or CCTV, so I'm not sure the practical difference that you would classify 1 as a police camera and the other not, no matter what if your camera captures a crime the police will likely be able to get a warrant for it whether you have to turn it over or Ring does. I think most people would rather a vendor like ring have to deal with warrants on their behalf.
I think it would be completely reasonable to bundle one of those Bluetooth-based U2F tokens and to require that to be around when you want to access the camera remotely.

To add new tokens to your account, you would have to place them on top of the camera, or something.

This makes the attack described in the article basically impossible, and lets the camera vendor sell you tokens if you have multiple family members that want to log in. A win-win!

How do you know the request is connected to violation of a law you agree with?
Encryption is a 2nd amendment issue. It's not a private expression, encryption algorithms are armaments that have always been used as such in warfare, and still are. And the Internet means that private citizens are routinely defending their intellectual property, monetary assets and reputation from organized crime and nation-state actors.

And we all get roped in to the tedious work of recognizing phishing emails, changing passwords, using 2FA and patching software that makes it possible to do business in the modern economy. When we fail to do so, our systems are then owned and used to make war and attack others.

Hence, we are all part of "a well regulated* militia [that is] necessary to the security of a free state."

* "well trained" in modern parlance
You're hoping it does. There are no guarantees about the future.
If you rule out an idea without verification and forbid studies in the area, that's just a variant of "la la la la I can't hear you". It's childish, and taboo.

It's obviously not a 'basic' science though and other applied sciences that are uncontroversially included in STEM get their own letter (engineering and technology).

People differ in whether they think medicine and the other applied sciences fall under the 'science' umbrella or not. Try searching around and you'll see a lot of mixed opinions on the subject.
Many of the Microsoft products continued working after support ended, or were replaced by something else with the same functionality.

Google's products stop working completely, and are rarely superseded. They just go away.
That tool had better not have a false positive rate that can be measured or Jeff Bezos will have some blood on his hands. The response to a 'wanted' criminal being spotted can easily cause that wanted person to end up dead and if it turns out to be the wrong person afterwards that would be more than just a little bit problematic.
That list is obviously a bit whack (how can being a pilot possibly be the third most dangerous job in the US?)

But yeah, many of those jobs have a skewed gender distribution in significant part due to sexist stereotypes.
You know, I hadn't thought about that.
Saudi Aramco shares surge as historic IPO begins trading
Gradient descent looks exactly like the effect you would get using a verlet-based physics constraint solver. I wonder if there is a deeper similarity between them beyond being iterative?
I thought the same until I almost got a pigeon trapped in my bicycle pedal! It got dragged along for several seconds before it managed to flap away. Not one of the bright ones, I guess.
Can you point to a page where Ring says this? I cannot find any indication that these work with anything other than their cloud service.
This idea is also closely related to Jen Simmons's “Intrinsic Web Design” concept. There is already some automation that can be done on web layouts at the moment.

It's documented fact that certain political entities have made heavy use of microtargeting in Facebook ads. Such entities would seem to be less sensitive to traditional ROI concerns, regardless of whether your bit about microtargeting never being worth it is actually true (spoilers: it is not true. maybe for some advertisers, but not for all).
If nothing else, you could review the footage yourself before deciding to share. If they person the system thinks it recognized looks like they're minding their own business, bury it.
>One area of AB 5 that has sparked great concern is that if freelancers fall under the occupations listed in it and they do work for a company that could be viewed as a “core capability” of that company, they must be paid as an employee, according to Zaino.

This does not concern me. Why does it concern others?

Why shouldn't uber and lyft be required to pay minimum wage and offer health insurance to the people performing the core capability of the company like literally every single other enterprise in the state?

Why isn't this nationwide?
I kind of doubt it. People will use the same password on every website, and if you require it to be 4 words, they'll just make it "my password is password" or something. Password requirements don't improve password security. Reuse and phishing are always going to be the main problem.

(Of course, bad passwords are bad. One time I exposed a mysql database I use for local unit tests to the Internet with the credentials root:test. It was hacked in hours, with a message saying where to send bitcoins to get the database back. Slightly stronger passwords do help with that sort of thing.)

Actually some things were better in Works, I especially remember being able to embed parts of a spreadsheet seemlessly into a text processor document and be able to update it one place. That was amazing back in 1995.
> Or they could get the warrant to obtain the video directly from you....

They'd need knowledge that your cameras even exist. Ring provides an easy to use map of their surveillance network.
Just passing along a quote that I heard, nothing more.

As for your first point, he's put up with Lars Ulrich for almost 40 years now. If that's not tolerance I don't know what is.

For point 2, decrying a large portion of the country as "Redneck America(tm)" sounds like the exact type of thing Hetfield is talking about, the same as your dismissive "thanks" at the end of point 1. They sold out with the black album in 91 anyway, there was nothing "redneck" about that album.
To me the funniest thing is that "neanderthal" became a word to describe stupid people, now it turns out that the white european genetic heritage that the stupid white supremacists are so proud of is essentially "neanderthal", which seems somewhat fitting to me
Doesn't that rely on you being the actual owner of the shares? If your shares only exist in Robinhood's database, I don't think SIPC would apply.

EDIT: After some Googling it appears that SIPC does protect securities that weren't actually purchased due to fraud or mismanagement. IANAL so I don't know if that would apply to this specific situation, but they have protected other non-owners before like in the case of Bernie Madoff.

> If people want parking they will build it.

Maybe they will, but not before first overloading the existing available public parking, which may be a non-problem to you but apparently isn't to lots of people who vote.
Agreed but what's happening is that governments are waking to the idea that not only will communications over the wire be encrypted from platforms (such as signal, dare I say whatsa--- no I can't, but you get the point), data at rest will similarly be out of reach from platforms with technologies like zero knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption. There will come a day, baring any tampering/legal obstacles where most companies simply won't be able to see the underlying data unless the user grants permission for the use. Even then users may not even need to grant permission to the entire object but elements of the object to facilitate an answer -- i.e. instead of granting access to an entire social security number, the system could simply ask via algorithm , do you have a valid social security number and is it yours and the answer comes back yes/no. To be quite honest, I don't see why governments couldn't join such a system but I guess if given a preference, they'd prefer to coerce the platforms rather than ask the users each and every time...just because that's the easy way doesn't mean it's the right way.
There is!

It's just so far proven to not be as large as one might hope. Consumers, when faced with services that don't offer them the features they want and higher prices, often think twice about preferring privacy.

There's a lot of money to be made by someone who finds a way to deliver the full-fat experience consumers want at the prices consumers are used to while also respecting privacy. Until then, I expect things like Purism and Protonmail to stay fairly niche concerns.
Woah, I've nexer hear of this. What a great idea!
You say dragnet searches are rational, but your only rationalization was that "inveatigators need to do their job." That seems like remarkably lazy thinking. We have limitations for a reason, everything from separations of powers such as judicial review/warrants, to natural rights such against use of physical of force, property seizure, to privacy rights, etc.

Just saying this is rational because investigators must do their jobs seems entirely ignorant of the obvious, implicit balance of powers issue here between free peoples and government authorities.

In short: There are, in fact, good reasons most civil liberty organizations fight against dragnet searches. It is not an emotional hunch.
Who? This is an obscure issue. I should think that very few Americans are even aware of the disparity.

So that brings us full circle to police are able to get footage from your CCTVs without your permission too by applying for a warrant directly to the court.

I don't think the field is sexist. I think fewer women choose to study and excel at it. The field is open to whomever wants to have a go at it. Due to "corporate diversity policy" I think (as a man) have less of a chance of actually breaking into software engineering than, say, 10 years ago.
maybe that's his point, that even wealthy social circles outside of the bay area are more accepting of things like hunting.
Well, Hacker News is pretty much exactly that.... Unless I'm missing something?
Encrypted communication is essentially what allowed online banking and online sales to finally take off and created Amazon and eBay, among other businesses that could not have existed without it.

The Eyeballing Game
Sure, and we could argue about whether mutable code is necessary at systems layers. But at application layers (i.e., the ones most developers work at), cost of development is almost always going to come before performance, and I think it's clear by now that OOP, at least insofar as it has been instantiated by Java, C#, and friends, has not delivered on its promise to simplify application development.
Breaking ABIs freely is a decision OpenBSD made that's been helpful in many ways, but the lesson we should learn from them is to engineer layers of failure mitigation into all our systems. Software bugs are unknown unknowns.

New York Just Set a ‘Dangerous Precedent’ on Algorithms, Experts Warn
Excerpts:

"To understand fluid flow, scientists must first understand turbulence."

[...]

"Since its introduction in 1959, physicists have debated the validity and scope of Batchelor’s law, which helps explain how chemical concentrations and temperature variations distribute themselves in a fluid. For example, stirring cream into coffee creates a large swirl with small swirls branching off of it and even smaller ones branching off of those. As the cream mixes, the swirls grow smaller and the level of detail changes at each scale. Batchelor’s law predicts the detail of those swirls at different scales."

My Comments: Classical physicists look at matter as being composed of atoms (neutrons, protons, electrons), String Theorists look at matter as being composed of vibrating strings, Quantum Physicists look at matter as being composed of quanta, that is, the possibility of a measurement in a given place and time. I personally have considered looking at matter as the presence or absence of force in a given space at a given scale -- but perhaps there's another possible view here -- looking at matter as solidified fluids of various different scales where as you go to smaller scales, the fluids move faster / are less viscuous... If that view turns out to have any truth to it (not saying that it does; it's all theoretical), then understanding fluid mechanics, and more specifically, turbulence, might turn out to have an additional application in helping to understand those small spaces / interactions in matter...

Here is this lady with the face (i've never heard it coined like in the article but I know it) and she has (tens?) of thousands of folks staring at her reinforcing the vicous cycle. More views, more facial contours, more stimuli, more ads, more money, more searches, more ads, more views
How do you know here that their job will be priority #1? Traditionally, men with families are considered more reliable because having a family demands stability. If I’m a dude who gets sucked into code, who’s to say I won’t get sucked into some other code than what I’m getting paid for.
