Here’s a counterpoint: I don’t want to be forced to do OSS as part of my resume. I already write software over 40 hours a week for my job. And I won’t do a take home that takes longer than a regular interview unless the place has really good pay (I’ve never heard of a take home place paying top of industry).

Meanwhile I’m very good at competitive programming, I actually find it enjoyable because of the challenge, and I don’t need to practice it much even when interviewing.

Also to be perfectly blunt I think this just ties into people generally being uncomfortable with tests. All the examples you gave have the benefit of allowing unlimited time. What’s wrong with a test that challenges your knowledge of data structures and algorithms? I actually find that in general the very smart people I know are good at them and most of the people who “don’t test well” aren’t. And even then they can just practice them. They might even learn something. Sorry if that sounds mean, I don’t mean it to be, just blunt.
Wuhan recently tested all 9 million residents and found only 300 currently positive cases, which are not included in official figures since they are all asymptomatic. If they had tested the residents for antibodies instead then we would have a much better understanding of mortality vs immunity. So it seems like a wasted effort other than forcing residents out of their homes to stand in long queues. CFR depends on knowing the percentage of all cases, not just those showing up in distress at hospitals, as i suspect their official figures actually indicated.
The companies that are actually taking action and doing something are great. Like Humble Bundle has pledge $1M to publish games by black creators. The meaningless press releases where the company/CEO puts out a PR crafted statement are pretty terrible.
Please feel free to ignoring the fact that cost of living in LA has gone up above inflation rate. Check your bias at the door please.

"For example, the Bureau of Census reports that the average price of a new home in January 2000 was $194,800.4 According to the inflation calculator, that price in January 2020 should be $297,705.3 The same report places the average sale price for January 2020 at $402,400, more than 35% higher when accounting for inflation alone."
Qualified immunity is only civil. Individuals should have the right to file criminal charges against those with special legal privledges, overriding the DA.
Miserable. Even if it wasn't officially supported, I have fun messing with the iCE40 open source toolchain on my dev boards. In fact, the whole reason I know of Lattice is because of the open-source toolchain that was scraped together, by the community.

Stop flogging us for wanting to work on your chips and tools.
Pretty detailed write-up with lots of supplemental reading and enough sass/style to keep it interesting. I learned quite a bit.
There was a belligerent drunk being an asshole to the conductor on my train in Switzerland and these two guys sitting in the back suddenly pulled out their badges (which were on chains around their necks) and turned out to be plainclothes transport police.

It was an amusing interaction to watch because:

* The drunk fellow was much larger than the conductor but she didn't even seem fazed and was pretty much telling him that if he wasn't going to produce a ticket (I don't know if this was one of those buy-in-the-train trains) he was going to have to get off.

* He was being all up in her face but when the cops got up they just walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder

* They did have to restrain him but it was all rather civilized

I can't help but think that considering everything he'd be tackled to the ground where I live now. It was sort of like a movie to watch these two guys dressed like you'd see street punks in a movie suddenly turn out to be transport police.

Naturally it's one incident and I don't know what use of force is like in Switzerland or Sweden in general.
This is the answer. Local media is owned by two families, one of which sits on the board.

It's small town politics at its absolute finest.
This blog actually got me into HFT. It's a fascinating industry with a lot of fun bleeding edge tech challenges.
> Look for emotional language in articles. Then count up the hard facts. There's an inverse relationship. It's not supposed to be like this!

Seems like it would be great to train a model on the historical corpus of news articles to visualize this trend and inform readers of this kind of deliberate manipulation. It might also be interesting to have a browser plugin that could use the model to "rewrite" articles to remove the manipulation as well.
And this past weekend led to over 80 shootings and 20 fatalities ... ZERO of which were from police.
I've rented apartments from giant corporations 4-5 times, and every single time I got screwed on the deposit on the way out. Presumably because they ran the numbers, and knew that they were better off nickel-and-diming people every time since most of their tenants wouldn't have the time or energy to drag them to small claims court.

There's also no way to negotiate with a person who has any actual power. You can talk to polite mooks all you want, but they can't actually change anything. You're guaranteed to get the maximum legally allowable rent increase every year and a huge pain in the ass battle for your deposit every time you move out.
Clojure is hands down my favorite language that I've used so far. Rich, if you read these comments, thanks for all you do!
Unreliably, and only if they have a clear view of your whole body, which isn't likely in crowds.
You are making the false assumption that we currently have exactly as many cops as we need.
The "quieter" part depends on the drone altitude.
Thanks for this feedback.

IIUC what you say, most of those scholarships and grants are for 'good' students, right? You need some kind of high GPA or over-average SAT results, right ?

Since I don't know much about the US system, I'm ready to believe my view is distorted :-) but then I'm not sure I understand the problem of student-debt ("next bubble to pop", etc.) in the US. I was debt-free at the start of my career thanks to the French taxpayer.

I hope what I brought since to the French society balances that, but I thought it very generous to trust me with a free education, 4000eur/year and a very-low-rent place on my own to try to get an engineering degree, especially as I was still a teenager when I started, and when so many go abroad... There's no downside of failing, I don't have to give the money back. The French taxpayer really wanted me to try and do this, with as little worry as possible about money and finding a night job, and as much focus they could afford for me. My room was clean and livable, common toilet/shower & kitchen were cleaned at least once a week. Internet was free (with huge bandwidth...). I'm sorry but some people found the whole thing shitty and cheap and 'not enough'... This was the last days of a great system.

Sorry for going on a tangent like this.
To look at it another way: maybe it’s not fooling, but knowingly aiding In their point of view, true or not.
You can get them off Aliexpress or Banggood for <$60. When it arrives just set up the Arduino IDE, Clone the repo, copy the AWatch folder into your Arduino project directory, install the libraries referenced in the repo, connect it over USB and hit upload.

They're interesting bits of hardware and worth playing with. The sample code on which the phone was originally based is quite... convoluted for what it is. I'm going to spend some more time playing with FreeRTOS and seeing if I can build something a bit more professional after looking at the Rebble code.
I have an open source project, where someone decided to compile it on OS/2.

Quoting from the article: "On the available evidence, the presence of people subscribing to economic liberalism within the ostensibly conservative parties in the US, UK and Australia makes it very unlikely that a substantial correlation – either positive or negative – will be found between political conservatism and intelligence."

So the answer seems to be no?

The United States has so many different kinds of law enforcement officers that is amazing anyone can keep it straight. Hell, USDA has officers. Many will be called to deal with things that aren't exactly their normal area when needed. Loaned to other departments, I think it is called.

Live on a reservation for a while and see at least three different groups of basic law enforcement, never mind when it gets bad and they get help from other agencies. Heck, wait until they pull the kill all cellphones and internet connections in an area so they can do an interagency drug bust. That screwed with our remote class something fierce. Using black helicopters was just asinine. Thanks for riling up the conspiracy idiots.
Well, the high-liberty right is anti-police because they are the arm of state violence so there's a more direct relationship.

Thank you for confirming that you did not read the research; and also that you are a snarky fucking asshole.

Don't worry though, dang won't do anything to you because dang does not moderate white male assholes. Dang prefers silencing minorities.
I have to be honest, i hate those programs. Imagine a program that's called 'Man's Who Code', what picture brings that to your mind? Right, drinking beer and play around with computers.

But i think that whats between your legs should completely be ignored, what we really need is too tell that you can do and be whatever you want (if your born in the 'right' country), maybe you have to fight a little more (ask any male Nurse) or you can adapt, its just plane wrong to always focus on women, and divides a society even more, don't focus on sexual organ's but persons.
Which is in part why the political tribes have largely abandoned facts.

It's very difficult to actually get to ground truth, especially with the rate at which social media and the news cycle moves. It's a constant onslaught of (mis)information and we don't have reliable institutions to make sense of it. Worse, it turns out facts don't really matter as far as this game is concerned. Each side is able to live in their own reality, able to look at the same thing yet come to opposite conclusions. It's highly predictable. Whatever Team A is for, Team B easily finds a way to be against. And vice versa. Sometimes the teams even switch positions in unison, since consistency doesn't matter either.

> GitHub projects, OSS contributions, stack overflow

All of these are great signals IF present, but IMO not beyond.

I have a decent track record in the software industry (FAANG and other), but I don't tend to work beyond work (the results of which are mostly private). Likewise, I've worked with amazing developers who prefer to focus on family/hiking/baking/etc. in their free time over OSS/private projects.

It's great if you have the passion to go above and beyond in your free time, but it shouldn't be expected.
I agree with you in a game setting where we play multiple roads but that's not possible and I think many people will be hurt by this.
What troubles me is that people politicized a potentially life-saving treatment. That's how dangerous our political climate has gotten. Orange man says HCQ good, but orange man bad therefore HCQ bad.
FWIW, that never occurs.

The training regimen for police is broadly one based on acting before you even have to react. Remember the game "slaps"? The one where you have to move your hands before your opponent moves theirs from below to above your hands, and slaps them.

They train by playing this, but with guns.

> According to data analyzed by watchdog organization Better Government Association, two-thirds of the 70 people killed by Chicago police from 2010 to 2014 were African American.

> “We’re the epicenter of police crimes and torture,” said Frank Chapman, executive director of the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression and a longtime Chicago activist. “We have one of the largest police forces in the nation and their record in terms of the African American community is despicable.”

> A 2017 Justice Department report investigating the Chicago Police Department found officers used force almost 10 times more often with black suspects than with white suspects.

Some of this is properly shocking.

> The city has paid out over $662 million in settlements for police misconduct cases since 2004, according to The Associated Press. It includes payouts to victims of Jon Burge, a police commander who, along with a group of subordinate detectives, tortured dozens of African American suspects from 1972 to 1991. Many times, the tactics, including near-suffocation by plastic bags, shocks by cattle prods and beatings by flashlights, were used to elicit false confessions.
Clickbait title.

Better title: political bias skews guesstimates that COULD be verified.

Are we really surprised that people don't know by heart the percentages of income mobility statistics? Also, although the questions, as posed, are technically verifiable, that's not what people really care about - do I care about a statistic of income mobility that includes my parents (soon to be pensioners)? Not really; I care about future projections - the income mobility of myself, and my future kids. That's what policy bickering is about.

Edit: the actual (not HN) title of the article is even more clickbait-y: When we can’t even agree on what is real
What? Yes, there absolutely are companies that give 1 worker 1 vote. There is a company model called a worker coop that gives each worker one share in the company. They are in many industries, from video games (e.g. Motion Twin) to massive conglomerates (Mondragon).

Apparently I can't access that file but I'll believe you. Although if the original was jpg as well then it was somewhat unfortunate to save it as jpg again as that would result in additional compression artefacts (lossless jpg exists, but isn't exactly common).

That said it's hard to tell whether it's compression artefacts or some 'smart' sharpening that's responsible for the artefacts. It would need to have been compressed pretty heavily to fit in just 4MB.
We can't keep having this same conversation over and over again. History exists, and it's incumbent on you to take the time to seek it out instead of asking others to do the work for you. Re-litigating the premise makes you look uninformed.

We may not be looking at the same data sets[1]. Median $54k across US ( $75k in my state ) does not strike me as not making enough.

Only about 40-60% of the US population votes, and I doubt a majority follow politics closely.

Plus, kids grow up and need to learn things that seem obvious to older folks.

Also, I can't think of means of protection that would withstand a high velocity collision with space gravel, that wouldn't be at the same time prohibitively heavy.

So if I’m reading this right, the authors retracted the study because they weren’t able to get more details about the anonymous data they used, as the org who provided the anonymous data refuses to share more details about it on account of patient confidentiality agreements

Edit: I think I found the statement from the org who has the sensitive data ... https://surgisphere.com/2020/05/29/response-to-widespread-re...

It includes:

> We also take data privacy very seriously. Our registry is an aggregation of customers who use our QuartzClinical data platform. Our strong privacy standards are a major reason that hospitals trust Surgisphere and we have been able to collect data from over 1,200 institutions across 46 countries. While our data use agreements with these institutions prevents us from sharing patient level data or customer names, we are able to complete appropriate analyses and share aggregate findings to the wider scientific community.

And...

> We believe that an independent academic audit that validates those three functions as it relates to our papers in the New England Journal of Medicine and The Lancet will bring further transparency to our work, further highlight the quality of our work, and also continue to deserve the confidence of our work by our colleagues.

>

> This process will follow strict boundaries as it relates to our data use agreements, among other considerations. We are pursuing such an independent audit with all due haste while ensuring compliance with various legal and regulatory concerns. [my emphasis]
Sure: literally zero people who want to defund the police think that we should just snap our fingers tomorrow and fire every cop. The article explains this, but if HN commenters have the unfortunate habit of responding to the title rather than the contents.

Quoting an open letter [0] that's uncontroversial in 'defund the police' circles:

> Black communities are living in persistent fear of being killed by state authorities like police, immigration agents or even white vigilantes who are emboldened by state actors. According to the Urban Institute, in 1977, state and local governments spent $60 billion on police and corrections . In 2017, they spent $194 billion. A 220 percent increase. Despite continued profiling, harassment, terror and killing of Black communities, local and federal decision-makers continue to invest in the police, which leaves Black people vulnerable and our communities no safer.

>Where could that money go? It could go towards building healthy communities, to the health of our elders and children,to neighborhood infrastructure, to education, to childcare, to support a vibrant Black future. The possibilities are endless.

>We join in solidarity with the freedom fighters in Minneapolis, Louisville, and across the United States. And we call for the end to police terror.

>JOIN US IN DEMANDING YOUR LOCAL OFFICIALS TAKE THE PLEDGE TO:

> 1. Vote no on all increases to police budgets

> 2. Vote yes to decrease police spending and budgets

> 3. Vote yes to increase spending on Health care, education and community programs that keep us safe.

Nobody wants a situation where law enforcement magically disappears at midnight and we devolve into 'the purge'. We want to take the money spent on violence and spend it on solving problems instead of criminalizing symptoms. There's a nice Q&A by the author of The End of Policing [1] if you want to a more casual overview, although the ebook [2] is currently free.

It is, but only by ~10-15%. The Camry for instance weighs ~3200-3500lbs, while the 3 weighs ~3500-4000lbs. That includes the dual motor 3 too, whereas Toyota doesn't have the equivalent Camry. The RWD versions of the 3 weigh ~3500-3800lbs.
