It seems like an arbitrary line in the sand to me. You mention Hitler as an example of dangerous thinking, but of course the culture that led to the Holocaust fed on the spread of lies and conspiracy theory. Lies can do a lot more harm than mere threats, because unlike direct threats, lies can be memetic and self-sustaining, they alter a person's view of reality.
> the labor of each employee is unique and you cannot sensibly price it wholesale thus there are salary negotiations for both sides to come to an agreement

Yes, that is exactly what I am claiming to be a myth. That unique price point is not a result of appraising the worth of that unique labor. Anyone involved from interviewing to making the hiring offer so don’t give a crap about finding your unique value, let alone your expected value, nor they have the means necessarily. Which means price points are mainly a result of negotiation power of the each party, which is severely handicapped for the candidates, because they don’t know the offers made to others in comparable experience and education. So they don’t know the best counter offer they could make and still get hired. That unexploited margin goes to the employer which has tons of data on past rejections and acceptances so that they can better minimize the offer they make.

In some labor markets, the non-negotiable salary is advertised with the job ads. Not claiming that is an infallible solution, but it makes for a drastically different labor market.

Hi,

As a part of a web development workshop in University we've created Recipeify - a recipe index with over 160K recipes from all over the web. Recipeify provides powerful search capabilities and filtration based on you desired ingredients, cuisines and dietary restrictions.

If you choose to login you can set dietary restrictions or forbidden ingredients to be applied on all your searches and save your favorite recipes to your cookbook. We also employ a recommendation engine that will provide you with recommendations based on your saved and viewed recipes and a general "explore" type experience full with suggestions for recipes based on seasonality and upcoming holidays.

The entire project is open source and all the code used from backend, frontend, to the scraper we've used is available on https://github.com/recipeify/Recipes.

We know that the design could be approve and would appreciate any suggestion or comment, here, through our support tickets or straight on our Github repo.

We hope you will enjoy and get some value from using Recipeify , we had a lot of fun creating it :)
By the way, we are having a Clojure data science public meeting at the end of this month:

I have the impression that being charged with a crime has permanent consequences even when it is rapidly dropped.

There may be rules about how people and organizations aren't supposed to hold it against you, but if records are retrievable then it won't go away.

Someone with more legal knowledge might chime in, but I feel like I've seen questionaires asking something like "have you ever been arrested, charged, or convicted of a crime..."

It's like in court when the judge tells the jury to disregard something, can they ever really do that 100%?

This isn’t quite right, though perhaps a nit, plenty of formal systems are provably sound (only true things are provable) and complete (all true things are provable). For example, the predicate calculus you learn in Logic 101. Formal systems become provably incomplete when they are able to express arithmetic (e.g., Peano axioms).
For a shorter (but still fairly thorough) introduction by the same author, I recommend:

These are reasonable questions. I find myself aligned more with Federal rules here than the rules of my state, California. I believe that the things about oneself that are generally immutable should be out of scope (the Veil of Ignorance trumps the Free Association). Examples are: racial identity (and however this manifests - skin colour, hair, whatever), biological sex, age, disabilities, genetics.

Things that I think are borderline but should be protected are stuff like religion. This is a tough place for me because I know that because of correlation in ethnicity and religion you can proxy discrimination for race through these so I take the L on the fact that I don't want them protected but I don't have a way to reasonably differentiate them from race-discrimination.

Political affiliation is a protected class in California, and I struggle with this a little. It isn't hard to imagine that there is a world where some race, let's say Centaurians, are generally discriminated against and they have a party: The Equal Rights for Centaurians Party. Discrimination against ERC affiliation is discrimination against Centaurians, just proxied through political affiliation. I don't think that's good for our society.

Any way, my ultimate guide star is free individuals being able to achieve their greatest freedoms without non-consensually intruding on others, so based on how society is organized at any given moment, I think the practice might be to protect political affiliation or to not do so. Ultimately, it may just be the case that sufficient of us decide not to use your product because you're a Trump supporter and then you die. That's life. You can't make me buy your product. That's a much greater sin. Maybe the law constrains your employer to not fire you and so we keep boycotting and you then die and are replaced by a company that doesn't act like you. FWIW, if it were me, it would depend on the situation.

Perhaps that's why it's good for CA to do so, because it is overwhelmingly Democrat-voting. If there were many powerful parties, one could imagine it would be less necessary.

I immediately thought of slick willy as well.
I posted this to see more discussion about it.

I don't know what you are hoping for here. This is probably not it.

I spent a fair amount of time in therapy in my teens and twenties. I'm quite convinced that a lot of our identity is a mental construct.

Let's take race. What makes someone "Black" or "White"?

It's not their skin color. You can find "Black" Americans and "White" Americans with very similar skin tones.

It's not their blood. The US decided somewhere along the way that people who are 7/8 Caucasian/European ancestry and 1/8 African ancestry are "Black." I have read these same people would be classified as "White" in Brazil.

It's not their culture. Even if a "Black" person gets a good education, etc, they will still be othered by most "Whites."

Anyway, we get taught certain categories and mental models and it winds up being taboo to think too hard about where they come from and what they mean and why they were really created and we live with the legacy of those inherited mental models and then those mental models shape both how we see ourselves and with whom we identify as "Us."

In other primates, those associations will tend to be more rooted in "This group takes care of me and I have positive associations with them and I'm one of them" and "This other group is openly hostile to me and they are my enemies and they are a problem, not an asset to me."

Human culture is more complex than that and it ends up being super hard to find a way out of those traps.

Even if you can find your way out, other people will try to keep pushing you into one of the preexisting categories in their own mind.

So the real question is "How do we find a path forward on getting group think to change?" because lots of people do therapy, sort their crap ...and then find that other people are actively affronted at their failure to fit with existing mental models.
The fact that the US press is willing to carry water for the Chinese Communist Party worries me more than Silicon Valley data collection, TBH.

> I think it may be premature to celebrate the demise of the office.

I agree, but mostly because high speed internet connections aren't that widespread yet.
I don't agree, and the reason is that posting unsubstantiated, unverifiable claims, anonymously, on a serious topic is tantamount to spreading rumors (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumor).

The damaging power of rumor comes from the fact that you can't tell whether the information is true or not, but you pass it anyway. The act of passing the rumor is already causing damage even if you don't act on the information in any other way.

For you this might seem innocuous but many people have been completely broken by a simple rumor and that's why I have always been taught that spreading or allowing to spread rumors is always a bad thing to do.

> > There was no C12 anywhere in the universe until the first stars began dying.

> ... outside of the stellar cores manufacturing it.

Stellar cores do not produce C12 unless they've already started dying. If there is hydrogen in the core, it will fuse that into helium instead of fusing helium into C12. It's not just a question of "it does happen, just super rarely" either- stars will have an inert helium core surrounded by an expanding shell of hydrogen burning for quite some time before the helium is actually able to begin burning. In the case of the Sun, it's expected to enter the red giant phase, where it burns hydrogen around its inert helium core for 1.2 billion years before it begins burning helium into C12.

> So we get all the elements heavier than iron from these insane-o-novas and from ordinary supernovas, often by decay from even heavier isotopes. Do we know how much of each is from which? E.g., did all the platinum or something start from pop iii output?

We have a few models of sources of elements heavier than iron. Supernova are the primary source of almost everything from oxygen up to rubidium.

Once a star goes from its red dwarf stage, where it's still burning hydrogen, into its asymptotic giant branch stage, there is a thin, very hot layer around the helium core, with a dense neutron flux. Heavy elements here will absorb stray neutrons and slowly grow up to elements as heavy as lead. This accounts for many of the elements heavier than rubidium.

The rest of the elements heavier than rubidium are the result of merging neutron stars. See here for more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_nucleosynthesis#Key_re...

Unrelated fun fact: for stars between about 0.5 and 2 times the mass of the Sun, nearly all of the helium burning happens all at once, in the space of a few minutes. For those brief moments, most of the energy generation in that star's galaxy is happening in that star; that star is more powerful than all the other energy sources in its galaxy combined. This is called helium flash. Surprisingly, this doesn't explode the star, all that energy is absorbed by the outer layers. Stars heavier than 2 times the mass of the Sun do not undergo helium flash, as they are heavy and massive enough to begin burning helium earlier and in a non-runaway fashion.

> The reality is that there is a real advantage in working in person. Whether it’s increased trust, communication, or lower friction.

There is no inherent advantage to "working in person." Lower trust or communication or higher friction are not inherent to working remotely, they are the product of poor and overconfident management (at least in tech, given our forum here) and can be seen in any number of environments. You can replace "working in person" with various other specious truisms like "having an organized workspace" or "having weekly status meetings" or "using agile methodologies" and the two sentences above will be likewise banal and true only in specific instances.

Most technology work can be done remotely, and I'd argue should be done both remotely and asynchronously (many companies recently forced to do the remote piece are still are holding dearly to 9-5 and constant meetings), unless there are specific use cases that require more in person synchronous efforts (and to be sure this is the case in some cases, especially when specific hardware must be used for instance). The perception that there is something "better" about 9-5 in-office work is more a product of tradition and resistant over-management than inherent advantages to either setup.

Have you considered looking at data science use cases for this (particularly with Python)? I've spent a lot of time tweaking containers meant for data science and one issue I run into a lot is that since you actually spend a lot of time developing inside the containers you want access to a lot of developer tools, but you end up with enormous images as a result. I could see using a tool like this to have one main developer container for working from that has all of your tooling and then using more streamlined containers for individual projects that have only the dependencies you need.
Anyone else suspect we are going to see a massive deflation of cities?

It’s really interesting to see people in general confront the actual costs of computing when they’re charged for asking a question. The reaction is, universally, “how dare you charge me for zero results”, as though it’s free to search for an answer - as if the time and money spent on performing that search must be given for free to all askers.

Most providers bury this cost in their revenue model and hide it from users. While PACER is probably charging more than is necessary, they’re definitely not burying it, and I’m honestly quite happy to see that.

There is an interesting parallel in that common and widespread reaction that match issues we’ve seen with essential workers during the pandemic, where for example a customer will say “Why should I wear a mask? There’s no one in here!”, somehow failing to recognize the worker as a human being in the process.

So, to translate the PACER pricing objection into the human equivalent, I present a question:

Do human librarians deserve to be paid a wage for performing a search that finds no results, or should their wages be docked if they can’t find anything?
I think Python is less a disaster than it is a tool being used for something it was not designed to do.

It's a pretty good scripting language, and it's a "good enough" interface that implementers of C packages can expose powerful features, and that can only go so far. User's can't easily compose the powerful features that library designers didn't intent.

Julia, on the other hand, was designed for the explicit purpose of high-performance scientific computing, with a syntax informed by the tools people already knew (python, MATLAB). It's no wonder it's so much easier to use.
You really missed the point. It does not matter if the "secret sauce infra" is better than equivalents. What matters is that the code you have is based on it. And since literally everything is based on Stubby, which has a hard dependency on Borg, once you remove the bits of the backend's code that are secret-sauce-dependent you're left with a Makefile ;)

It literally came from an animal originally. That's what zoonotic means.

As for what that means for eradication:

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eradication_of_infectious_dise...

> The targeted organism must not have a non-human reservoir (or, in the case of animal diseases, the infection reservoir must be an easily identifiable species, as in the case of rinderpest), and/or amplify in the environment. This implies that sufficient information on the life cycle and transmission dynamics is available at the time an eradication initiative is programmed.

^ This is why we can never eradicate it. There's a couple of other requirements. For example we could eventually pass this check:

> An efficient and practical intervention (such as a vaccine or antibiotic) must be available to interrupt transmission of the infective agent.
