I'm working on bringing peer-reviewd content, but posts with the News & Views tag are not scientific articles as mentioned
So the 50% or 90% is bonkers and does not represent general population.

No, it's actually commentary on the fact that women themselves often cannot clearly state "I was raped." The article in question was trying to show that lots more women have been raped than will admit to it or claim it. But you can also read it the other way: It casts light on how difficult it is to define rape.

Rape hinges on the detail of consent. Even women who have been fed alcohol until they were incapacitated and then taken to someone's room will go online and say things like "I had sex with a friend last night. I'm in a relationship. I know I need to drink less..." and get a chorus of people saying "Honey, that was rape."

People imagine rape to be some clear cut crime. In reality women are often very unclear in their own minds whether or not they were raped.

If the crime hinges on the detail of consent and the woman in question can't state clearly whether or not she wanted it, much less whether or not she consented, then you have bigger problems in determining data than in how surveyors ask their questions.
Thankfully not. For several reasons. Mainly...

IMHO Philosophy is great and all for motivations and decoration, but for structural items like farming, biology, and architecture it's blind and mute. And the movement in question is a philosophical one, namely a bastard child of post-structuralism and select bone and gristle from Marxism. Sure, it'll rise again, like a bad penny zombie. But for now its lost half its population that just wanted Trump out the door.
Maybe vaccines can be produced that are only used to update your immune-system and try to avoid triggering the previous response, so they are only useful in combination with a previous shot?
> I think your solution of promoting positivity to management positions carries its own concerns though, such as promoting naive yes-men, or "fronting" positivity so much that it becomes fake

Promote more of what you want to see.

If you see a yes-man or someone pedaling fake positivity, don't promote it.

No one is a perfect judge, but keep your eyes open. You get more of what you incentivize.

I'm not saying blindly accept whatever. If you see plagiarism or fraud, or if the article is wrong, say it! But don't just claim that if the guy has highschool diploma, it must be wrong - come with arguments, or let someone else come with them.
I read the article, actually I read it in a concerned state, and then I realized there was little need for concern. Clickbait is a daily problem on this site, there’s no need to insult or attack my character for raising the issue.
I tried DDG and Bing and only go back to Google.

If you search anything that has a political interest, it is better to use DDG but everything else Google does it better.

Isn't the whole purpose of a free market with stock trading that people make those decisions themselves? I've certainly made bad trades in the past, but no one stopped me. Shouldn't I have been stopped as well then?

And if everyone is protected from losing money, we should just disable buying stocks at all for everyone, because you can always lose money.
Clear field of view of the sky is necessary, which may be a problem in the woods. The field of view will narrow with more sats; now it's quite large. Apparently they have an app to visualize it.
I've been using Ecosia as my default search engine on desktop. It's fine for most things - but I sure miss the google cards... type NBA to get the games coming up and the recent scores... same thing for other sports... then I can type the name of a song and it shows me the lyrics and the music video... it's really convenient and that's the reason why I keep going back to google. If DuckDuckGo would implement that same style of cards I would switch to it.

When Accolade Games reverse engineered the Sega Genesis (Megadrive) in the early nineties they employed the clean room technique with two groups of engineers. They went on to produce games for the Genesis without paying a royalty to Sega.
I'm not sure what the author expected when trying to link code that mixes uses of libstdc++ and libc++: there are not ABI compatible in any way. If you need ABI compatibility between different compilers you must write C.

No offence to anyone who’s in support of it, but Gnome has never been the “quick and responsive” choice. They choose to focus more on helping users make connections between input and effect (Click minimize, see an animation of the window minimizing to it’s final position), same goal as OSX.

There are dozens of window managers who’s focus is on responsiveness (Xfce jumps to mind) if you want to explore that side of it.

The irony is the only thing about this event that is noteworthy. The attempts at humor (album title) beyond that fall flat, but YMMV. Regardless, that quote was the heart of the assertion from a non-story.
I switched because I got sick of Google telling me to get Chrome when I was using the new Microsoft Edge (which is a fork of Chromium like Chrome is).

Their pop ups when using Edge are an unjustified FUD campaign.

Metallica is probably not in it for the $ much these days. I'd wager it's more about ego, so this probably stung. Deservedly.
That's just awful.

I'm guessing Amazon lockers are fairly rare in NYC.

I'm also guessing that it's rare that you can get a post office box/UPS store box in NYC, what with real estate being so expensive.
Automatic Pool Cue
Is it illegal to say they resigned when you fired them? It makes sense to say that they resigned when you accelerated their termination after they said they want to quit, even if you still legally treat it as a normal firing. Pretty sure Google still filed the paperwork's correctly so she got her unemployment benefits, and if they didn't then I trust their lawyers view on it much better than yours.
Yeah, I realised I was talking BS. Unfortunately HN doesn't allow me to edit/delete the comment anymore.
Many of these new alternative technologies improve on some parameters (switching speeds or thermal efficiency), but in terms of miniaturization (which also leads to better switching speeds and thermal efficiency) the established tech (silicon) will rule for quite a while, simply because of the gigantic head start it has. At the end, none of these technologies really provide for a way to have things smaller than an atom, and silicon tech is already approaching the scale of tens of atoms. It would take a while to get other tech to that regime.
Those scores are a part of the game, but that doesn’t mean they are meaningless. They are just as meaningful as goals in soccer, or stats in RPG, or gold coins in platformer games.

That means: realize this is a game, understand rules, and decide if you want to play this game for the score. If not, don’t waste time of them. If yes, don’t forget to periodically re-evaluate if this game is still worth your time.
You're right. Shame on me.

Is it? It doesn't seem to be cumulative. Although it is smoothed to a 365 days average. If you click on that number and set it to 1 you get a much noisier picture.
Disclaimer: I am an intern who recently joined the team

F' is actually quite older than all those systems. Several generations of scientists and engineers have worked on it and the code's current form is a result of countless iterations on generations of software. One interesting tidbit I caught recently was how programs generated using cFS acted up in the magnetic field on Mars due to the bit patters of the instructions in the final compiled executable. F' fixed that.

I'm not so sure I would be able to trust most of them with my laundry as much as the average dry cleaning professional.

Which one would be most likely to be wearing your best suit more often than you do while it is not in your possession?

Probably less obvious when wearing someone elses' outfit instead of nothing at all.
If you open Garage Band, then record sound track then while your track is playing you would go to settings and
you connect a bluetooth speaker. Then in Settings->Sound section you would click on tab: Input. It works?

Try to stop playing track and start to play it again. All Works?

Try to select bluetooth for input and play again.
Works?

The simplest scenario is when BTSpeaker is already connected, you just run Garage Band. Open settins->sound>input and then press play in Garage Band.
Works?

It's a good UX quandary too: if there's information that improves the primary user intent (queries) that's privacy-sensitive (e.g. location), what's the most ethical way to permit the user to voluntarily submit that?
This seems to be a weird misconception about climate change, that the earth getting hotter will somehow end all life. That’s very doubtful. All the plants will love the new greenhouse, lots of energy in the atmosphere, rain every day, the whole planet a tropical paradise. It’s the humans and some other species who’ll be heavily inconvenienced. Solving climate change is mostly so we can stay comfortable and not have to deal with more ecological crises and refugees.
Non-experts usually have much larger unknown unknowns than experts, and much smaller knowns than experts.

The apriori reason for not trusting a non-expert's argument, when you yourself are not an expert, is that your unknown unknowns are also large, so you can't find all mistakes in the argument.
Regarding your question, I think mathematics and programming about the same: being precise!

Programming is much more demanding, much more unforgiving in this regard, because you are talking to a stupid machine, rather than a smart human. The powers automation gives mathematicians (once you've climbed the mountain of initial unfamiliarity), are so spectacular, take the average Joe so much beyond what even Gauss, Newtown, Grothendieck or Archimedes had at their disposal, that I expect that over the next century mathematics will be rewritten to suit computing, rather than vice versa. K. Buzzards's work is one step in this direction, scriptable notebooks like Jupyter or Mathematica are another.
Ah heck, my apologies! Sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase.

Why would they connect the live presentation machine to the internet, or even have it run like a normal machine... that said I had to somewhat hack my updates because there was no way to properly postpone or schedule them in a way that would not interrupt me in vital situations like an online multiplayer game where your teammates need you.

Yes, absolutely. We must use the evidence available and draw inferences, assuming that there is no magic soil type phenomenon involved. In this case, the evidence available includes 5 years of statements and actions performed by members of one political party which demonstrate beyond any doubt that they overwhelmingly possess a seething hatred of one of the candidates. It also includes undisputed evidence that election officials instituted rules for some election facilities that greatly hindered the ability of outside election observers to ensure no fraud was taking place. And it also includes undisputed evidence that these same election facilities are totally politically dominated by that one political party, and have been for decades. We can therefore infer that it is overwhelmingly likely that they engaged in fraud.
I don't believe there are any ToS covering simultaneous streaming on Twitch and YouTube for either service.
I’m running five-nines with my setup and I’m the only operator. Monitoring and automatic failover is not difficult but I think it requires a solid architecture from the ground up.

OK, I concede that it is not completely inconceivable to do that, but unless the service you're operating is relatively light in its demands on the tech stack, I think it's a very impressive achievement to maintain infrastructure that can consistently and reliably deliver that performance on your own if you're also the person doing the development work and your infrastructure costs aren't getting silly.

We have a simple, fully redundant architecture at one of my businesses as well, and I suppose we probably do achieve five-9s most years, but I wouldn't be willing to guarantee that to customers with serious money on the line if we missed it. We're still only D disk failures at similar times away from degraded performance while we spin up new machines from scratch, or N network failures away from degraded performance until we can bring up more capacity where it's still available.
Why would a newspaper publish this? What could their motivations be? Sometimes I feel like they are lampooning themselves in order to achieve the opposite effect. Given that the last article I read here about the NYT was a former writer describing it as a propaganda machine and ideological hell to work for, I wonder if this is an act of malicious compliance.
Bitcoin cannot scale well enough to be used as a global currency
.Consumes a huge amount of energy
.Is extremely slow at processing transactions, degrading usability

.Most people in the industry do not think that Bitcoin is/can be a day-to-day currency
It's not a Perl thing. In Perl, that would set argv[1] to undef. It would not delete or left-shift @ARGV. There is a delete() function that acts similarly, but is discouraged to use on regular arrays. Shift() would be more appropriate in this case.

Given the context, in little-lang, it appears to delete argv[1] and shift all of the right of that down, such that argv[2] becomes argv[1] and so on. That's so that the the "while (buf = <>)" construct used right below it doesn't process the regex as if it were a file to "grep" through.

In Perl, you would typically do it this way...

if (!defined(my $regex=shift(@ARGV))) {
die("usage: grep regexp [files]");
}
Ah fair enough, didn't know they were so strict with software distributed outside the App Store.

I say the best thing to do is distribute your software using Homebrew then. As well as it being super convenient since it's effectively the same as apt or any other package manager common to other Unix systems, it bypasses Gatekeeper.

Got curious how and it's amazingly simple, it literally just provides an environment variable that deletes that "quarantine" xattr metadata.[1]

Tell your users Homebrew is the supported installation method and you can skip right over Gatekeeper.

Not thousands of random people picked off the street, though. It involves thousands of people that overwhelmingly share a seething hatred of one of the two candidates.
Ghostery Browser desktop beta, based on Mozilla Firefox
At $5 million, at current mining rates, it would cost $1.7 trillion dollars per year in energy and equipment costs to run the network. That is fresh capital that needs to be shovelled in and burned each and every year.

Not to increase the price, just to maintain the network. What is the network doing that would justify that investment?

After halving the cost would drop to $850 billion a year but still.
Thanks for your feedback. I will add a privacy policy and info about importing/exporting data (which is in fact a feature).
However I'm not sure where to add it, do you have any suggestions?
The page footer seems like a logical place, but from your comment it seems you were already deterred not being able to find it from the CTA -> signup window. Maybe a small text link from the signup window would work?
I think the broader point is that Apple needs a search engine for the same reason it needed a Maps solution: it's basic platform functionality at this point.

And they'd be wise to avoid the Ted Turner mistake: when all your competitors are vertically integrating, don't be the last person left standing without a chair by the time they complete their integration. It leads to an essentially powerless bargaining position.

And like it or not, Google, Facebook, and Amazon are extremely aggressive about integrating their platforms. Microsoft being somewhat of an odder duck.
How Swift achieved dynamic linking where Rust couldn't (2019)
The legal definition doesn't matter. She resigned. Google almost surely reported it as a firing so she got her unemployment etc, but in practice they just accelerated her resignation.

Easy to understand example: You say you will quit in 2 weeks. The company fires you on the spot. If people ask the company what happens do you think it is more accurate for them to say you were fired? Would you prefer a company to say you were fired if that happened to you and you used them as a reference?

Pretty sure almost everyone would see that as you quitting and not you being fired. Legally you were fired but in practice you quit.
A submission comment since this is very long: Like many hn readers, I personally enjoy Scott Alexander's writing. This is a rather scathing but very long criticism of his style, so I thought it may make for interesting discussion here.

I am trying to make up my mind - OP started with some observations about his style which I found partially relevant, but then derailed into something that seemed motivated more by political disagreement.
Maybe I'm missing something but there's a severe lack of a good image search engine. Relevant results, privacy, decent UI - pick one. It's a huge technical (and financial) challenge, but still - Google is very far ahead there despite its tireless efforts to make the UI an excellent example for the problems of modern web design.
>Now, if you used it to verify whether a binary was _secure_, this would be problem

Even that's probably fine. Collision attacks require the attacker to control both inputs. In the case of code signing this would mean the publisher is in on it, in which case you're already screwed.
I would rather we figure out how to manufacture 30nm at 1/100 the capital cost that it does now.

You can't really democratize compute, if there is a global oligopoly on manufacturing processor chips.

That's meaningless. For all we know, these companies could be buried in debt and thus have little value in their assets.

The price is a prediction of future payouts (whether in dividends or value of the assets the company is holding).
This isn't even compilers. clang is perfectly happy using other peoples std library implementations(well libstdc++ and MS STL's that I know of so far).

I think it is more apt to say that you do not mix libraries with the same names here, or in this case don't mix std library implementations.

This is just wonderful. If the internet were filled with articles and posts of this kind the world would be a wonderful place. I love how the author took the thing from the movies just to the next logical step, that itself is something most won’t think about. I mean most people jod just take the destruction of all life forms as the end and stop thinking there.
Community Perspectives on Elastic vs. AWS
Who Is Still Buying VHS Tapes?
For the trademark infringement (UberEats vs UberCheats etc), if they don't think google or the person complaining (Uber) has it right, they can still absolutely go to court, and get a declaratory judgement. That's what they should do - they make lots of (what look like total BS) claims that they don't infringe, go to court and you will get an order that UberCheats does not sound similar, look similar or involve same product area (on demand delivery / transport) as UberEats etc and that they have the right to use the name and are not trading on the UberEats and other Uber product brand recognition. Good luck with that case by the way.

The platforms don't have a lot of confidence in the timeliness of claim resolution through the court process, they have 10's to 100's of thousands of issues to address weekly. Trademark ripoff apps, apps ripping off copyright, content issues (child abuse / apps that promote violence). Waiting for legal orders on any of this would be time consuming and costly. So we are clear, courts take YEARS to resolve these things. They also operate globally. Developers in Israel and Egypt and the EU and the US. Cross border legal enforcement through the courts is very hard at scale currently and there are political differences as well.

My own sense, if govt provided more timely, effective and accurate relief and determinations, folks would be more comfortable with court involvement. But at least on commercial side, given both the politization of courts (which makes rulings both unpredictable and highly variable based on judges involved) and the delays in the process there is just an understanding that to maintain functional ecosystems the platform owners need to take a more hands on approach.

I'm in another field where basically everything has gone to arbitration agreements without exception because the court process is just broken for resolutions on larger scales.

Companies are getting very careful on this.

"If a subscriber/enrollee doesn't agree to arbitration, will Kaiser
Permanente decline enrollment?
A: Yes. If a subscriber/enrollee does not agree to arbitration, they (and
their dependents) will NOT be able to enroll in a Kaiser Permanente plan."

So this is extending to nonprofits as well. What's really interesting is business to business (ie, both parties roughly similar negotiating authority) also going to arbitration. The big issue on the business side though is arbs tend to split awards (it's a safe call) rather than just destroying one person even if the case calls for that, and there is no appeal (which business doesn't like, they want at least one other crack at the apple).
I would rather go with research then with imagining clueless women saying things online.
All the world's trillion-dollar companies have gone woke, so I'd wager it's quite profitable. It may not seem like it to you because you're not the intended audience.
