Your original claim (that every tipped employee is making at least minimum wage and employers don't break the law) is in fact more extreme and yet you've provided zero evidence. I've provided plenty of evidence, you just don't like it because it's uncomfortable to think about.

In fact, here, have some more evidence, I'm eager to find out what's wrong these these sources:

> I mean, the Third Way Democrats whole shtick is embracing right wing policies and injecting them into the democratic party. They gained power as a faction in the democratic party around 1992

They gained power before that (their main original organization, the DLC, was a powerful force in Democratic politics well before its former head became the Democratic nominee in 1992), but they were definitely the unquestionably dominant faction from that point forward, though that has gotten weaker over the past decade or so.
You've met my example of the outgoing administration lobbying state legislatures to overturn their own votes with a hashtag.
My country had similar issues, it took a right man at the head of election commission to reform it. We lucked out, I think something similar would be the only way out.
Why is this a big deal? He's moving closer to his main focus.
I don't get this view. Controlling information dissemination is like, half of negotiation strategy. If the counterparty knows everything you know, you're basically always at their mercy. Seems like a lot of trust to give literally anyone and everyone.
That is pretty much the level of certainty required for prosecuting crimes domestically, yes, or very close to it. Time-frame, proof of intent, and motive.

There is of course a way of doing so, as long as the attacker made a mistake. If they didn't, then it very well might be completely impossible to know who did it, and that's just how it is.
Video evidence (which is being taken down), eye witness testimont (affadavits), statistical anomilies.

She used a drag and drop tool to build the dashboard, and it's not gatekeeping, it's calling out an incredibly biased news source for trying to fluff up the credentials of their chosen hero to support their narrative.

Your definition of data scientist is what anyone who actually knows what they are talking about calls a data analyst. Data scientists create models for supervised and unsupervised learning for either product or research purposes.

It's surprising to me that the post doesn't discuss Grubhub, which I used in early 2012, while that quote is from the middle of 2013. I think Seamless was around in my area too, then. Was it just not widely available?
Get in touch, I will be happy to hear more about it :D
For the past year or more I've found Google's search site extremely unpleasant to use. It's results are choked with ads (like half of the page), and its search optimization heavily favors promotion of products, services, and brands. Unless that's what I'm looking for (and generally it's not) often I no longer can find what I'm looking for without repeated searches adding contextual clues, sometimes repeating the search 3 to 5 times. That's damned annoying, especially for a service that had none of these problems a couple years ago.

Lately I've been using DuckDuckGo and even Bing more. I can't say Bing has added much value, but Duck seems to fare about as well as Google for simpler searches while generating none of the spam. Maybe Apple can do this better still. If so, more power to Apple.

Frankly, I'd love to see the government step in and create a search engine as a public service that lets the user choose what emphasis they want when they search: commercial, non-commercial, regional, historic, etc. Since the WWW's arrival ~25 years ago it's become obvious to everyone how important web search is to EVERYTHING we do online. It's a primary window onto the world. To put that power entirely in the hands of one company, especially one who's lost its way as badly as Google (Do No Harm, indeed), is insane. It's time for search to become a public utility and adopt some basic design principles that serve the user as its primary mission. Maybe Jimmy Wales could offer some good ideas.

Another service a gov't-funded search engine site should provide is phone number lookup. It's absurd that there's no directory for phone numbers any more. Do we really WANT to obstruct people's ability to stay in touch with each other?
sure. But for Softbank, this current bump (which is think is artificial and going to pop) could allow for them to liquidate some of their positions (likely without making too much of a price disturbance) to allow for diversification.
Is it really that big of a difference? You still have to go to the one section of walmart where they stock the cheese or car batteries or whatever. Walmart can set up their own shelves to emphasize their own brands if they want.

If you pay with a credit card at walmart they can collect the same data about your purchase history as amazon would as well.
It is interesting that YouTube refers to historical charges of voter fraud. In 1876 we had a similar situation where there were charges by Republican's against Democrats of electoral irregularities. This was resolved by a 15 member committee from the house, senate and supreme court who effectively appointed the Republican candidate the winner after an 8-7 vote. If this was to happen again and Trump was appointed President would YouTube remove any content that questioned whether this was a legal practice or whether the result of the election was fair. If I was a Democrat and this happened I would certainly be concerned that I was wronged and I think it would be entirely inappropriate for content questioning whether this was the correct decision to be removed.
You are free to set up a “free speech” alternative to YouTube if you think that is a better system. Unfortunately you will not be able to get many users because it will be full of porn and spam, and you won’t be able to fund it because advertisers won’t want to be associated with it.
From the courts' point of view, I don't see why that would be considered relevant. Assuming the phone was seized properly with a search warrant, there is no legitimate expectation of the secrecy of its contents, no matter how encrypted or secured, all of that data can be legitimately used as evidence and for general investigation purposes.

There is some precedent where courts have used the safe analogy; disclosing the passcodes might be considered analogous to disclosing a safe combination, and forcing that disclosure may violate anti-self-incrimination provisions (such as 5th amendment in USA); however, there's no contest that if the officials are able get access to the safe (or, equivalently, the phone) without that information, they are allowed to do so, and the methods used for breaching the safe aren't really relevant, just as the specific methods for breaching the phone. The evidence would be admissible no matter what method was used so refusing to disclose the specific methods for drilling the safe (or breaching the phone security) would not invalidate the evidence. If the defence would demand that the specific method of breaching that safe must be publicized, any judge would throw that demand out as irrelevant to the case.

The only thing that would matter is that the defence might contest whether the data that the prosecution claims to have been extracted from the phone was really on that phone. But the standard measures for convincing the judge and jury of that - mainly, careful documentation of provenance of any data and careful custody of physical items - generally don't require exposing the details of the specific method. And if the specific data isn't used as evidence but just as information to find some people or physical evidence, then there can be no contest at all if there was a valid warrant for searching the contents of that phone.

The defence has no legal grounds whatsoever to demand that such techniques should be disclosed to the public. They might have legal grounds to require that the techniques used should be vetted, but this can (and is) easily done in a closed manner by having court-appointed experts doing the vetting and testifying "yep, we verified the tool and methodology used and the results match what was on the device" while being prohibited to disclose any commercial secrets about the techniques used.

As I said, not everything is perfect, but let’s keep things in a perspective. It’s still the place that’s generating multiple billion dollars companies year, and turns lots of people into millionaires.

It’s hard to find anywhere else in the world, where sum of all things is so friendly towards tech. Of course, a lot of that isn’t because of government (or even, despite their actions) but complaining how horrible it’s for tech companies in SV is so detached from reality like billionaires complaining that they need to pay extra few % in taxes.
The dems cried fraud in 2016 but the difference is that Clinton conceded the night of the election. There is a big difference between claiming something but still doing the right thing vs. claiming something and then just double/triple downing on it which is what the Republicans and Trump are doing. It is dangerous, extremely dangerous. Trump margin of loss is bigger than Hillary's margin of loss from 2016 btw.
A lot of the hard work of scientists and engineers is enabled by chats, though.
Does your point only work if you do "proportional to total population"? Why does that matter? Texas has El Paso which has major criminal drug and border activity. What does Texas have to do with California anyway?

Why is your only defense picking single skewed metrics and comparing it to separate places? Are you going to compare CA as a whole against TX or would that reveal your bias?

You still haven't answered what has gotten better in CA over the last 10 years so I'm going to end this here.

EDIT for your newly added last line: I thought about this and figured that HN readers would understand that "weather isn't great either" was in addition to the other issues and even specifically wrote "main cause" in the hopes that nobody would conflate the issues but here we are. But yes fires are mostly due to poor planning and infrastructure. Wildfires are the most preventable disaster but California has gotten to the point where insurance companies are proactively cancelling policies because of the fire damage.

Hyundai Robotics is a much bigger chance for this, particularly considering they've rather concrete plans for it already trough their HGZN partnership [0].

Still only lets you look at week long slices, not a competitor to GA.

Also browser/device/viewing environment info is a key piece of GA and not something anybody has replicated as well. (the ability to intuitively drill down and compare is second to none with GA. you have to create segments in omo witch is a like 10 click long process with 3 processing pauses vs clicking on `windows` to drill down by family to os version or clicking on a referrer to see the pages they refer traffic to by visit)

What doesn't make sense to me are all the statistical anomalies everywhere. How did down ballot republicans outperform Trump everywhere, when Trump's approval ratings among republicans were incredibly high?

The bellweather counties perplexes me.

The crazy turnout in specific counties that far exceeded demographically similar counties that wouldn't have the impact to flip the election. The fact that Trump out performed himself with all demographics except white men, he had historic republican support from black and hispanic voters, except in specific key counties.

The fact that all of these counties all flipped the next morning was perplexing, especially since many of the flips came from ballot dumps that had statistically impossible ratios of votes for Biden. Or the massive number of ballots that were showing up for Biden, but had no downballot choices filled out at all.

Couple all of this with the thousands of witnesses that swore on strange activity during counting, and the absolute lack of security around the Dominion machines. I'm surprised HN hasn't been all over the Dominion machines, the HN of several years ago would have had several posts decrying the security of those machines.

There are reasons to doubt things. The doubt needs to be addressed with transparency and in court, and so far, all of the municipalities that are raising suspicion are fighting tooth and nail against transparency.

If the concerns are met with censorship and dismissal without real rebuttal, I don't see an optimistic future for this country.

Get some historic perspective. The classic older browsers will run easily in Wine or VirtualBox. Try to build a website for Mosaic. And upgrade it for Netscape 2.0 and IE 3.0. Then upgrade it for Netscape 4 and IE 4, while retaining compatibility. And onwards to today. If you can span 25 years of it, you'll know more than most of today's web devs by a long margin. It is easier than it sounds, especially if you start basic.

I took way to much mdma when I was in my twenties, it really messed up my short term memory and I'm pretty certain the affects on my memory are still there. At the time I think it started to mess with my confidence too. I had some great times on it and actually meet my future wife on it. Over all I wish I'd never tried it though. It was too good. Then after a while the nastier side of it outweighed the fun and we stopped doing it.

I can definitely see how it could help couples talk through their difficulties and it seems to bond people closer together.

As an aside I know a guy who completely fucked himself by doing mdma farvto much. It was really sad to meet him after a few years, he'd gone from happy outgoing to a paranoid mess.

I've worked with Puppet and Ansible, and now I'm a user of Saltstack, and don't often hit my toe on the problems you're asserting.

One person's legacy code (in the pejorative) may be another's tried, tested, robust core.

Similarly, the 'mess of YAML + Jinja' - might be seen by others as leveraging the power of both. (And in Salt, recipes can be almost anything, eg vanilla python, so long as they spit out something that parses as config.)

My gut feel is DSLs really have to offer something hugely compelling in order for me to want to abandon conventional and common config markup formats.
> Rapes have more than doubled in the past decade.

Do you have any source that states that this increase is actually due to more crimes taking place, rather than more victims reporting rapes due to shifting attitudes and/or less fear of societal rebuke? It could very well have been under-reported in the past due to stigma and other reasons.

These kind of societal factors can often affect the number of reported rapes more than the actual crime rate does. And we absolutely know that the attitude toward sexual violence and misconduct has changed a lot in the last decade. So it is reasonable to believe that this had had some effect on the increase of reported sexual violence, especially since most other violent crime has had sharp declines.

Summary of the provided source for people scrolling past:

Since 2010, homicide had a 21% decrease, robbery a 14% decrease, aggravated assault a 25% increase, and rape a 94% increase.

The contrast is even more sharp when looking 20 years back:

Since 2000, homicide had a 52% decrease, robbery a 35% decrease, aggravated assault a 47% decrease, and rape a 41% increase.
30k sounds like entry/mid-level salary in Central Europe. With over 10 years of experience I currently make over $90k

Also, if you take median salary in software industry, which is probably closer to $65k, in my country it buys you much better lifestyle than 200k in the Bay Area does. Me, for example, I was able to buy 2 bedroom, 900 sq ft apartment in the capital city with cash, no mortgage required. Other expenses don't really register on my radar. I'm piling up cash for early retirement.

EDIT: fixed some of my numbers.

EDIT2: After my country joined EU I never emigrated to Western Europe, because it didn't make financial sense to me. If I ever find myself emigrating to California, that would be because of the weather, not money.
Do you live here? What area?

I've been a California resident for over 20 years. Feel free to come down to LA and I'll walk you through the actual streets from downtown to Inglewood. We can even visit a few prisons where I can introduce you to people on both sides of the law, visit the various homeless areas, and talk to the gang task force and DEA agents. Maybe we can also go down to the border and see how things are.

Or perhaps are you too used to a single media perspective and have little experience with the reality on the ground?

Not sure why you are downvoted, that’s a pretty good precis.
these are minor problems and more importantly they don't have any proof that they would have changed the outcome. For example, 9500 people were dead. What was the breakdown of Trump/Biden in those votes? I don't understand how we can fix that. Do you have a crystal ball we can all look into to find out if we will die between the day we mail in our ballot and the day of the election?
Yeah, and if only I had a pony. lol
What I asked for was an example where BLM is calling for violence. What you've provided was evidence of protests - some violent, some not - in the name of various causes.

What you've now basically claimed, is that none of these protests have any legitimacy - violent or not. What you've explicitly claimed is the notion that police don't disproportionately act violently towards minorities. Why do you say BLM is built on disinformation?

Edit: there is just footage of the Paris protests thrown in there for good measure? Do you even know why people are protesting in Paris right now? Come on, man, I'm willing to look over your sources but don't just throw someone's twitter profile at me, shrug and go: "If you don't believe this then clearly nothing will convince you."

I agree they're not perfectly competitive but they come close (which was my claim). I view them similarly to the soft drinks market, you have moats due to brand such as Coca Cola, but vigorous competition with a heterogeneity of choices for the consumer. If I'm a socialist I can read Jacobin and if I'm very right wing I can read OANN, no matter my perspective I can find print media to suit. TV networks aren't a good comparison to newspapers/print media since they have very high fixed costs and as a result will only cater to markets that represent a sizeable proportion of the populace.
