Good points. The state shouldn't be in it at all, because calling it marriage can be an infringement on the religious liberties of others. Civil unions are the state-sanctioned "legal pairing of two humans", and marriages are the religious term for civil unions - and come with religious expectations.

The state shouldn't be in the business of certifying christenings or bar mitzvahs, nor should it be in the business of marriage for the same exact reasons.

With 100K visitors / day or so we were in the top 30 websites world wide in 1998. The really big boosts came from the Space Shuttle webcasts and an Yves St. Laurent fashion show webcast from Paris.

Hard to believe now, a typical blog post will already pick up 30K visitors without too much trouble.
Federated oracles is the answer you are seeking. Essentially build systems to quantify reputation and provide rewards for those that publish data of interest in a manner that can be driven via consensus or through interfacing with an agreed upon central authority prior to a contract. You don’t “trust” the oracles you make them compete and avoid malicious actions.

You are focused on off-chain interactions for smart contracts. The infrastructure is not there yet I’m afraid, but there is steady progress. I believe Taiwan is working on IoT infastructure for publishing high resolution air quality data by having individuals set up sensing nodes that gather the data and publish it. Not sure if there is any DLT involvement, but no reason there couldn’t be.

On chain contracts have lots of use cases in the meantime.

A lot of this could just be reddit staff astroterfing, but to the extent that it isn't, it (giving actual money, even small amounts, to flair reddit posts) just validates the stereotype that reddit as a platform selects for users with lower than average intelligence.
The Actix unsafe code has long since been resolved. There are very few instances of it, and each are small, specific, easy to reason about, and wholly internal. I'd guess the risk is about on par with—or safer than—VM runtime languages written in C/++.

Far as 1.0 in Rust, the predominant culture is to treat "0.X.x" releases roughly equivalent to a "1.x" semantic. I have run into very few issues of API breaking changes in "0.X.x" libraries, and even those are basically handed to you thanks to Rust's robust compile-time checks.

Of course your mileage may vary, but I've had a way worse time with even well-established breaks in Ruby, Python, and Go libraries. I understand your risk aversion; I am similar. But I've found Rust to be an absolute delight for stability. The shaky ground of the first few years has largely given way to impressive robustness over the last few.

I strongly urge you to consider Rust if it matches your needs. You may be quite pleased!

I will make an assumption here that you don’t live in a rural city...
looks like a bunch of disjoint paragraphs.

(1) "your father's company" still exists, you don't have to join startup. Maybe there are fewer of them, but you can find a job there. They'll be pretty boring thought.

(2) Yes, when you join startup you often worry about finances. This is one of the part of being in startup -- you are playing the lottery, and you can lose.

(3) If you are "anxious most of the time for a price that doesn’t even scratch your balls", what are you doing in that company? Find a different one. Even a different startup may help -- they are all different.

(4) "occupants’ well-being is my utmost importance" is not always true. Often, there is no point in perfect solution if it came too late.

(5) "What is the measurement of developer’s productivity?"

(features implemented) - (technical dept accrued)

(6) "How would I know that I’m productive?"

In general, you don't. You can try compare yourself with other people, but unless you have identical tasks, it's not a fair comparison.

In bigger companies, there is a process called "PIP" (performance improvement plan). It has very specific goals ("finish tickets #11, #12 in four weeks"). If you don't do that, you are "too slow" and you are fired. If you can do it, you are not too slow.

(7) "It’s unfair on my side. As a developer, I’m already bogged down by coding alone. Making sure everything is running properly and I’m not ruining anything. "

It's 10x worse for your boss.

(8) "Being criticized for being slow is wtf."

Being criticized for being slow means you don't have a good boss. Not all companies are like that. Look around -- you can find a different one.
I agree with all of the above but there are two good dynamics.

For small niche subreddits where you only get a few answers it seems less likely that those are advertisements (and user history is often telling)

And on bigger subs, it's much harder to manipulate the answer unless your product is already pretty decent and you're just fighting over some market spot. In other words, obviously bad products won't be able to advertise this way because of negative comments, but some covert brand building certainly can be done.

"Anyway, why are you coming onto a HN comment thread to find out what privilege means? So much has been written about this."

Surely they know what you think you mean to say about White Privilege, but there's a special kind of authoritarian arrogance in assuming that the notion is settled.

Do White people in Poland, a country with essentially no Black people have White privilege? Or do they only gain privilege when there are sufficient people around them who may not have the same opportunities manifest themselves?

In which case, there clearly is no such thing as 'White Privilege', rather, there are some groups who simply have it harder than others and it's much more rationally described in terms of those who face discrimination, than those who do not.

It's like saying people in the suburbs are 'privileged' to not live in high crime areas, or that kids are 'privileged' to not be bullied in school, or 'privileged' to have access grocery stores nearby.

None of those things are privileges and we'd never describe them as such.

We would always describe those situations wherein a special, negative context applies i.e. 'lives in high crime area' or 'child is bullied' or 'lives 20 miles from the supermarket'.

'White Privilege' is a racist term used by intersectionalists wanting to weaponize issues of race, and project guilt or other groups who frankly have no advantage or privilege, other than in the most narrow of contextualization.

You’re missing the obvious point. It should be easier to customize what you see on the front page. Clearly everyone does not share the same tastes. And it’s a huge missed opportunity to not filter the obvious low quality comments which are effectively spam.

Sometimes it's obvious - the same user posting/commenting the same link across many related subs with very low signal and no other posting or commenting activity.

Or you see the same link and comment/post text posted by many different users.

But this is just low-effort marketing. There's a lot of content that is relevant but also marketing. Burger/chicken restaurant twitter account screenshots getting posted to a default sub, for example.

English is a Germanic language (as are German, Swedish, Dutch, etc). The largest components of its grammar are similar to other Germanic languages, as is a lot of vocabulary (butter, swine, cow, deer....).

A bunch of French words were grafted on recently (not in 1066 but over the following couple of centuries), but none of the grammar came with it.

As for German-speaking people in England specifically: well, George I and George II spoke German (and French), not English. George III was the first Hanoverian king to speak English. Not surprisingly, he was mad :-)
To be honest, as a gay man, I find the opposite is often true: that somehow insisting on homosexuality being genetically preordained is needed in order to argue against sexual-orientation-based discrimination. That is, if it is an inborn trait then gay people shouldn't be discriminated against because they "can't help it".

I've always found that somewhat offensive, because it somehow takes the sub/unconscious opinion that being gay is defective: "You wouldn't discriminate against someone with a severe birth defect, well gay people can't control it either." Fuck that. Whether it comes about from the genes, or through the environment, or most likely through some combination of the two, it is completely illogical for anyone who has ever felt sexual attraction of any kind to argue that it can "controlled", so I don't need some appeal to "it must be in my genes" to make me feel better.

Normally that happens to me when I start to adjust my query to get Google to do what it used to do.
I think 'peers' is a good viewpoint. I used to think of it differently though.

Imagine if you didn't have managers, so you had to spend all day answering the phone and emails, sitting in boring meetings, getting interrupted to deal with people problems, making out TPS reports. You'd want to hire an assistant or secretary to do all that stuff for you so you could get some work done, right? Developers have that, we just call them manager or boss and they get the slot above us in the org chart.

That's not an insult, just a view of how things are different in development vs. traditional industry. A good manager is very valuable, and a lot of 'doers' wouldn't want that job even with the higher rank/status.
And Paul Graham's page uses them extensively. Only places on the modern web where I see them used.
Since controlled fusion isn't mutually exclusive to using Dyson Spheres, why not use both?

It seems that constructing Dyson Spheres can only add to the amount of energy that an advanced civilisation is capable of harnessing even if they're also using controlled fusion, so it wouldn't be surprising if they used those unless their energy needs were totally satiated by controlled fusion (or some as yet undiscovered alternative source)

Its not inherently ludic because the point isn’t having fun. The point of gambling is the contest. The point of trading options is making money or hedging risk. The fact that someone can have fun doing work doesn’t make work inherently fun. Having fun is inherently fun. Speculation is work, gambling is fun, according to the nature of the activity, regardless of the existence of professional gamblers and recreational option traders.
And here lies the problems of finding causation not correlation:

- gay is not binary neither through time (people do evolve both way while getting old) neither through ‘space’ (some people are half/half, some people have some preference for love and others for sex, and so on)

- genes are not expressed linearly, and one slight expression in the womb can mean something big, or nothing or maybe something?

- social pressure about sexuality start early even though we may get better at avoiding some: blue for boys, pink for girls, boys do sports, blablabla and so on

- internal development and expression of sexuality does not happen at the same pace and at the same amplitude for everybody (some people really are asexual their whole life) and of course the familly, sister/brotherhood, socio-economical environment influence it too

So in these studies of sexuality and even worse, with the metastudies, I’m always left with the feeling that the hypothesis tested by it was broken from the start. What was the question they were trying to answer?
« Is it biologically complicated? » Ok yes.
« Do we have the tool to even make the distinction between a weak correlation due to the sample bias? » Can’t see how in this study.

It's highly relevant from a perspective of philosophical and scientific curiosity, and mostly (seemingly) irrelevant from a perspective of practical impact on our lives.

I'm also cautious to jump to such conclusions given how nascent we are technologically, even though the light speed barrier does seem absolute. Our recent ancestors probably would've thought a similar thing about life orbiting a nearby star, and it's only with the hindsight of recent advances that we're able to conclude that that's not as far out of our reach as once believed. Who knows what one million years of additional technological advances will make us capable of?
