There is very little actual debate about facts, whether the facts of biological sex or the facts of personal identity, when it comes to the “transgender debate”. There is only a moral disagreement about what matters in how we should relate to people, traditional stereotypes based on expectations around gender presentation tied to biological sex or personal identity.
Being used by at least one company of significant size that (a) i've heard of and (b) isn't directly connected to the project would be a good start.
I see this response often and I have to say, "just throw it on the GPU" is phrase only uttered by someone who has never personally attempted to do that. The simplicity of CUDA and `pip install tensorflow-gpu` belie a huge amount of engineering prowess; go look at the source for XLA (https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorf...) if you don't believe me. To answer your question, tons of scientific computing tasks parallelize nicely and are a horrible fit for a GPU, because they involve branching, or non-deterministic runtimes, or need a lot of memory bandwidth, or rely on highly optimized legacy numerical code that is written in Fortran, or any one of a number of other reasons. Deep learning is a very narrow use fact and, in fact, GPUs and DL symbiotically co-evolved over the last 15 years to the point where GPU hardware is essentially designed to efficiently train neural nets. (And run games.)
You do not have to be respectful or subject your own opinions to scientific evidence (are you implying that we can scientifically prove what an idea is? The anti-scientific implication behind this is ironic).

Notions of respectability is literally what the Village is about. The irony is incredible.

And yes, saying that transgender people pick funny names is not a hate crime. You may be unaware but in the UK we actually have fairly severe hate crime laws, you can go to jail if you say something hateful on social media...this isn't close (and btw, the prosecution service in the UK has said they will prosecute literally everything they can and specifically aim to crack down on "low-level" hate crime...the bar is exceptionally low).

Also "deserve a backlash"...again, the irony of saying this on an article discussing the Village is...too much. Why are you judge, jury, and executioner? Backlash doesn't exactly imply rehabilitation, it implies judgement and shaming.
> and that you aren't allowed to discuss reality

The distinction between gender and sex has been discussed in trans communities to death. What's really happening here is that someone claims trans women are men, the trans community responds by saying, "sex and gender are different concepts, we discussed that already". And then the original people just keep repeating, "but they're men, that's biology."

Even from the perspective of just having a productive conversation, if people aren't bringing anything new to the table -- if it's just noise -- then I think that both individuals and communities have the right to filter out that noise. The marketplace of ideas should filter out arguments that can't evolve or respond to new ideas.

If I show up in a science forum and start claiming that evolution is crazy because "no one was alive back then to see it", at first I might get honest responses. But if afterwards I just keep saying the same thing again, eventually the community might decide that it's not their job to get me over that hurdle. And it's fine for them to decide who they want to engage with, there is no Right to Communicate without the Right to Filter[0].

If someone wants to bring a genuinely new argument to the table that doesn't ignore trans responses that have already been given, then maybe there's something to be said there. But I'm honestly really unimpressed with most anti-trans arguments that I hear online, I think most of them add nothing to the conversation at all.

There's a difference between making a glaringly preposterous claim about programmers, and buying into or participating in systematic hatred against certain groups.

If you change your statement to "All people of color are terrible, lazy people and they can go to hell", you will rightly receive serious backlash due to the historical context, in which fundamental human rights have absolutely been denied.

Now rephrase that again to target people of Jewish descent, and it it becomes even more horrifying and closer to "denying the fundamental right to exist".

Context matters.

AutoCAD went along a similar trajectory actually - from menus to toolbars to a ribbon. The difference is, you can still turn each of those modes on and off, including using two or all of them at once. Whereas Microsoft just kind of went "Okay y'all are gonna use a ribbon now."

Edit: Forgot the AutoCAD command line. You can still turn that on too, and type commands like it's the 80s. It's actually kind of a paragon of a mature product that maintains all its older interfaces.
100% the US is better than the more corrupt countries in the world, even if it does seem we tend to have more problems than the other first world countries. But on nepotism, I wonder if it’s not just that we are somewhat more against nepotism, and more that there’s wealth of opportunity here such that parents can help their children in potentially dubious ways while still leaving plenty of positions and money to go around for everyone else. There’s always a bit of a back and forth pull between culture creating a countries conditions and conditions creating a countries culture after all.
Hate crimes spring to mind. People tell lies about minority groups, give themselves permission structures to justify violence, and vigilantes take it upon themselves to "fix" the problem with violence.

A lot of people have been murdered on as a result of hate speech. Emit Till, Michael Donald, James Byrd are a few.

Also, the Rwandan Genocide, historical Pogroms, lynchings, arguably the holocaust.

It's pretty hard to get humans to murder their neightbors without inciting speech.

Issue seems to be resolved, but the the comment on their bug tracker is almost infuriating.

“ Earlier today, a code change triggered crashes for some iOS apps using the Facebook SDK. We identified the issue quickly and resolved it. We apologize for any inconvenience.” (1)

At the scale of Spotify and other massive blue chip apps, this bug could have very well cost companies hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in damages. This apology on the bug tracker seems so insincere. With this type of issue occurring twice in a couple months, I’ll be ensuring that no clients of mine ever install or rely on Facebook services within their mobile apps. Facebook has a responsibility to developers to ensure that their SDKs and integrated components are stable, and they have failed.

It's not that SIMD for GPUs. It'll be 64 or 32 GPU threads together generally sharing the dispatch and control logic. So if you have a 4096 "CUDA core" GPU, it'll be 64 of what would be called cores on the CPU side, each with a 64 lane vector processor.

In all seriousness, if I'm reading this correctly, Ddd9 would resolve the challenge of using CRISPR-Cas9 to edit mitochondrial genomes. Could this be used for treatments of mitochondrial diseases in the future? Additionally, mitochondrial DNA is passed through the mother, so modification could potentially have a long lasting effect.

Maybe (although some people report that not working), but not necessarily, as "autoinit" is just an if case checked in the same auto executed code in the Facebook SDK, which could still crash before the flag is checked.

> To have a safe society, you need to either have lots of surveillance, so people know they are being watched and will think twice about committing crimes (countries with very string gun laws like England and Australia have very strong surveillance systems in place) or the ability for anyone to defend themselves legally against said criminal

So, the issue here is that you've picked two countries out of the vast number of countries who ban or severely restrict guns. There are plenty of countries with few or no guns which don't have significant public surveillance systems.

The problem with Quibi is thinking that they can charge for this content.
People are not gonna pay for quick bite videos, even if they have a high production value. Why would anyone do that with such limited time?

The problem of all these platforms is that they think they are creating a new market or expanding an existing one and they forget that people only have 24 hours a day to do things.

If you create something like Quibi you're competing with Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Netflix, Xbox/PlayStation/Nintendo-Switch, Mobile Games and anything else that is trying to grab a slice of you leisure time.

Why would I pay for this when I already pay for other options with more content and get a handful for free?

Quibi is what you get when you think you know your customers but you really don't. It's the type of self-deluded product that is created in an echo chamber by rich people who believe their past success is a formula that can be reproduced at any scale as long as money is involved. The problem with that idea is that it values scale more than ingenuity.

Doing short vertical videos with high production value and charging to watch them is almost an absolute zero in terms of innovation.
The OP also misses the point that rather than modeling the 1:n relationship as he describes ("backwards" from the Comment to the Card) one could have a separate [Card.Comments] table that maps comments to and from cards (in either direction if so indexed) -- in other words, you could model the relationship directly and implements a graphDB w/your RDBMS. This allows one to add/remove relationships while leaving the data, to reference/reify the relationship, etc. Easy enough to create your own client-side query pre-processor or stored-procs to make queries easier of this graph if you desire.
This is quite an uncharitable and inaccurate description of how UBI is paid for, least of all because of the implication that you'll be taxed the same amount that you'll be paid. Some folks will be paying in much more than they'll get back (i.e. rich folks), as they should be. Some (i.e. the poor) will be paying little to nothing, as they literally cannot afford to. That's the entire point.

I thought more of being able to do bit manipulation or hashing etc on your keys. Those things don't necessarily require a fixed key length. (And in some languages, even integers don't have a fixed length.)

Admitting this is even the case (which it isn't, as people recently are being cancelled for being just moderate, or for stuff they said when they were teenagers which is ridiculous), how can you justify having someone fired by a mob for something they SAID, therefore denying their livelihood?

It's the equivalent of burning their home, since employment is what enables people to secure long term security for themselves and their family.

So you are actively supporting denying the right to exist of people with whom you disagree with?

> creating a massive government bureaucracy

Huh? This whole program was put together and executed in a matter of days, and mostly via the bureaucracy of the IRS as I understand it.

The point of a UBI is in part that it is explicitly not means tested to avoid "welfare trap" incentives, and it's tremendously cheap to implement relative to, say, food stamps or what's left of cash welfare in the US.
Promises are a different case, imo. If the deal was made for the land, then past injustices and reparations are irrelevant.

> The ones that are completely gone have no way to make a claim.

I could have been more clear, but I was trying to imply that we should remember that it's the lesser injustices that have claimants. The greater injustices would have none.

In fact, it raises an interesting question. Suppose that early American settlers genuinely just conquered the whole land, provided no reservations, made no special deals, and expected / enforced all remaining Native Americans to submit to the laws of the land. You know, like virtually every other conquering of a territory throughout history.

Would we look on those actions less favorably than the actions that were actually taken? Or would we just write it off morally as "every place was ultimately taken by force by someone at some point" and it be a non-issue, despite it being a much greater injustice?
Well, ask yourself this: what's the concrete value proposition you're buying into? "bookmarking" in itself is way too general and leaves you wondering why you want to spend 22$.

You're actually (a) leasing usage of affordances provided by a system which someone else took the time to design and build, and (b) leasing hosting for your collection of bookmarks on someone else's system.

Why would you do that? Because you don't want to do any of these things: You don't want to spend time downloading and installing some bookmarking program, you don't want to design and build it yourself, you don't want to deal with storing data locally (even though it might be really a simple sqlite3 database).

Likely, you've rationalized you're lack of want through convenience, security, risk of data loss, someone else has done a better job at "solving bookmarking", etc. etc.

This is a line of reasoning which is perfectly valid. It's totally fine just subscribe to a service. However, it just so happens that your demand for such a service creates a market. And it's equally valid for others to charge you for what they offer.

Everything else is just opportunity cost calculations on your end. You don't want to fork over 22$? That's valid. But then you have to abide by whatever else the market is going to offer. If Pinboard ends up losing subscribers to Microsoft and sunsetting, then that has nothing to do with the quality of the service, but the very fact that potential customers are far too keen on compromising what they want, need and value in favour of the free, yet less-then-ideal offering from a corporate competitor.

The problem with "free" is that it's the very bottom of the barrel. It doesn't pay the operating costs of a service. The difference between Microsoft and Pinboard is that the former has the financial leverage to cover the costs of a "free" tier. It's this leverage that defines the edge when it comes to conquering markets, as it allows corporations such as Microsoft to set up a far more effective sales funnel. It just so happens that it also drives competitors out of a market, and stalls any form of innovation. As far as Microsoft is concerned, they have no need to build a Pinboard clone with feature parity, if customers are all too willing to abide with whatever OneNote allows them to do, even when that's less then ideal.

In short, there's simply no such thing as a free lunch. Even if the market tries to convince you otherwise. It's totally valid to feel that Microsoft is "horrible", but by the same token, customers eagerly relying on "free" services equally sets the bar for them to simply get away with "horrible".

The pictures aren’t for yourself, they’re for other people. Imagine passing away and no one has any photos of you except for things you took pictures of, which are likely things other people have already taken pictures of anyway. Some may even question if you really were at all those places.

That said, it can be taken to an extreme. Photos of yourself should always try to be as candid as possible, and you shouldn’t be the main subject every time.

Lockdowns and fear-spreading are a political decisions, regardless to if we judge them to be wrong or not. So, if people don't go to the doctor, that's because they are worried from what they watched on television. If hospitals collapse, that's because they are either not prepared, or have lots of staff in quarantine. That's not because of a virus, but because of how humans were prepared and chose to deal with the situation.
Intuitively, I agree with potential shaping factor. But shaming making people civilized - that certainly deserves a citation.

But that's all besides the point. Judging by myself only of course, I seriously doubt people shame others because of the duty to higher purpose (making people civilized).
You're sidestepping my accusation.

You said that hateful speech "denies [a person their] fundamental right to exist". You have not provided any evidence that this is true.

What you _have_ done is argued that speech has consequences and that people can influence others. (Which nobody would disagree with.)

You've also painted a theoretical picture where people go on a campaign to grow hate for a people group by spreading terrible propaganda, many buy into it, and the masses are turned against the people group. I never said this isn't possible, but it's certainly not an automatic outcome of hateful speech, and it doesn't support your assertion in question. At that point, their life is threatened because of the evil of these theoretical masses.

I hate that I have to break it to you, but the masses of civilized society are not out to kill any people group, regardless of anyone's hateful speech.

The speech is not the problem. The hearts of evil men and women are. You can't suppress speech enough to get rid of evil in the hearts of people.
Digging into a handful of these examples, there’s a lot more to many of these stories.

Advertisers not paying for Tucker Carlsons show is itself the advertisers speech, should we deprive them of it?

The poetry society is about how an organization wants to democratically run. For now it’s a letter, and if they take action, it would be through their democratic process... should people NOT be advocating for more robust responses from orgs they’re a part of?

The Cornell professor appears to have a long history when you look into what the students are saying...

I think you CAN find examples, but we probably need to create more robust criteria before making any claims
