You can pretty easily implement this! There are a few Chrome/Firefox extensions that modify Google Image search to look like it used to, and as far as blacklisting Pinterest, I'd recommend creating a custom search engine in Chrome (I assume this is possible in ff too?) with that parameter as a part.

Settings > Search Engines > Manage Search Engines > Add

Then input:

- Search Engine: Google Images

- Keyword: i

- URL: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=%s%20-site:pinteres...

Then typing i<space> in the url bar will use that search engine. I've got about 30 of these for various sites and they're a great time saver! (Chicago Craigslist, Google Maps Directions to <place>, DuckDuckGo I'm Feeling Lucky, Wikipedia search, etc.)
So an appropriate and useful label for those individuals is "productive".
"Culture fit" without any other explanation is fairly solid evidence. First off, programming is one of the most "culture agnostic" jobs I've worked - if you're a high performer, you can absolutely get away with being an abrasive asshole. At least, if you're male. That's slowly changing, but I still find the social skills of the average programmer to be significantly below what I'd expect from, say, a minimum wage cashier or call center employee. (And that's fine, but it makes "culture fit" look like a much more suspicious excuse)

The other aspect here is that they just fired her, without any effort to actually work on that "culture fit". I've worked with managers who had wildly different styles, and some of them did NOT like mine. But instead of getting fired, I had conversations with them.

It's certainly possible that she's lying, or in denial, or just plain wrong. But I'd say the weight of the evidence favors her.
Is there no action a person can take before they qualify as subhuman? honest question.

>Is there good evidence for the topic actually being suppressed by anyone within the statistics profession?

Unfortunately there's not enough evidence to show causation...
Maybe instead of a centralized repository, individuals could be given the ability to create their own partial sets of recommendations that could be aggregated by a user. Instead of trying to globally solve trust and designation of expertise, you explicitly define the group of people whom you designate experts and whose assessments you trust.
My first thought was that "the system" is broken. It's too big and complicated. It's inhumane.

And it's not just corporate tax law. Health care is a dumpster fire. Lots of overly complicated modern bureaucracies. We're not as smart as we think we are.
The clunkyness of this is what drove me away from JS (among other things). Now I functional compile-to-js languages and it's a joy!

I'm not going to give you MY content, for free, if you don't AT LEAST allow for my content, and the content of my peers on your website, to be in a format which is easy to export and edit.

You know why?

Because in a couple of years you will raise more money, and your VC will tell you that a subscription business is a great idea, you will follow him, and I will need to decide between paying you $X per month, or stop using the service. I don't want to get there again.

</rant>

Nothing against you personally. But perhaps there's a way to promise potential customers that you're not going to screw them eventually.

Edit: to be clear, a "format which is easy to export and edit" means two things: something like markdown, and a single button which allows me to download everything I ever wrote on your website.
An attorney general from a state will start to go after them if they don't come up FSD any time soon. My guess is the settlement will be that they can carry it forward to another Tesla. No of the features really work with the current FSD like smart summon. And there's probably tens of millions of money poured into a feature that doesn't limit up to expectations.
Vimeo's much bigger in the film festival scene, for example. It's one of the primary ways films are submitted to small-to-mid festivals. It has a whole infrastructure for that - e.g., I upload my film once and then can manage submissions to different festivals from there - and if you're not in that industry you wouldn't ever see that functionality.
> YAML is clearly made for humans.

A format that allows references to other sections is not a configuration language that is usable by humans.

I understand the people who created it thought it would be usable by humans, but clearly it is too complicated for anyone to be able to understand a YAML file that is bigger than a dozen or so lines.
If you think you have found a legal loophole or gray area then the correct course of action is to send a letter to the responsible federal agency (like the IRS) and request a formal opinion letter as to the legality of your scheme. Once you have it in writing then you're in the clear and won't be prosecuted.
A more common advice is to avoid prison in the first place. And if you are there ... I believe prison culture has differences, just like on the outside world.

Instead of looking for protests, perhaps a better (though still imperfect) signal to gauge sentiment about living under pandemic restrictions is to look at how much vaccine demand there is, and how aggressively some governments have acted to ease restrictions. After all, there aren’t constant protests in prisons, either, and I don’t think you’ll find many people saying they’re better off imprisoned than they were on the outside. (Yes, there are outliers—let’s not argue making the exception into the rule.)

If most people were truly comfortable with the status quo, it seems pretty unlikely to me that there would be such overwhelming demand for vaccines, nor does it seem like there would be a constant push to (often prematurely) end pandemic restrictions in so many areas.

I’ve been unable to find any poll asking people specifically about whether they enjoy the restrictions, so I can’t give a definitive answer, but the preponderance of evidence suggests that if people could wave a magic wand and make the pandemic go away tomorrow, they would. And that’s after only a year of relatively minor restrictions on daily life, not 5 or 10 or 50 years of being held in captivity.
ISO standards commonly refer to other standards for more details. Then you also need technical reports which are also pay walled to get a sense of practical application. It very quickly adds up and there is no way to "explore" which documents are really applicable to your company and products.

And to top it off most of these licenses under which you buy them only allow for a single digital copy (one person).

I don’t think anyone would disagree with your point about the scale at which Google operates or that these type of things happens

However, it’s clear they are not doing enough or not doing anything at all to remedy the problem of having a path to fix things when something does go wrong.

At Google’s scale, they should not be doing automation, AI or otherwise, without support in place when it goes wrong.

AI means so many things that it has become as meaningful as "magic". Some don't consider anything less than human-level an AI (this is also called AGI or strong AI). On the other hand enemy behavior in video games is commonly called "AI" even when it is as simple as pacman ghosts. In the same way that magic can literally mean "impossible" or be applied to card tricks accessible to 5 year olds.
As mentioned above, if it few $524 per document, and you don't know how many documents you will need to consult in order to comply with the standards and at the end you need to buy the relevant document ... It's tricky. Standards are like laws. The law shouldn't be pay-walled.

All of this sounds horribly cringe-inducing and I don't fault you at all for walking away from IBM.

At the same time, I can't help but look at this from an iterated organizational perspective. Let's say you had taken the offer at IBM. Next year, IBM does the recruiting event. But this time they have a Native American employee, you, that they can talk to about how to reach out to that group. So it's a little less awkward. Maybe they hire a couple more. Over time, the organization builds enough to overcome its own internal systemic bias and does have a strong local representative culture of Native American employees.

But I don't see how an organization gets to that point without it being sort of weird and cringy at first.

Of course, you are under no personal obligation to be the one to take those first steps simply because you happen to be a member of that group. But I have to wonder, if we're going to criticize an organization for trying to correct their biases this way... what other process would we suggest?

> My least favourite interview technique has to be "talk me through a complex problem on a whiteboard".

Let's say an interviewer reads your resume and is interested in a project. The interviewer comes to the interview prepared with some questions. They ask you to start with a high level summary of the project. Then, ask you - "What choices did you have to make during the project?". Then, ask you some specific questions about these choices. In each of these questions, the interviewer is not supposed to "evaluate your answer" but rather gain an understanding of your project and choices to be made. At the end of the interview, the interviewer would walk away with two things - (1) a clear picture of the project almost as good as the interviewee and (2) a clear picture of the design decisions the interviewee made (options they had and why they chose one over the other).

The above interview is a conversation and you are allowed to be silent. The process will be communicated to you upfront. In fact, silence is encouraged because the interviewer would much rather give you time to think over a spur of the moment answer.

I see a nice parallelism with the concept of OSS. All these paywalled standards are like closed source software, in the sense that they are not created under terms that ultimately protect the freedoms of final consumers (those who end up reading the PDF).

The ISO business model is creating something (standards) and then profiting from their distribution.

As I commented above, the Opsware CFO went to jail not just because of her role in the options backdating scandal, but because she lied on her personal tax returns.

In particular, what the CFO was recommending was backdating the grant date of the option, which was fairly common (if not legal) among tech companies back then. What she went to jail for was backdating the exercise date of her personal options, which is kind of trivially obviously illegal to anyone who has ever filled out their tax returns. It's like if you sold stock on Dec 20th, but pretended you really sold the stock on Dec 10th when it had a lower price so you'd pay less in capital gains taxes.
I would argue that a water damn would be a better storage of energy than batteries. Although it can be environmentaly problematic depending where you put it, it can hold an enormous amount if energy which can be switched on in seconds.
Doesn't it have an obvious answer? The people who accept this are the ones for whom this is the best option. Upside: money. Downside: offensive pandering. That's often better than being unemployed.

If that's true, then it's not just an offensive strategy, it's also ineffective for the business employing it. It's a way to select the lowest performing of a target group.
A good start would be to write the law in a way an average Joe could understand it. I can already hear the legal sector screaming ' it's impossible!!'. A good example is the 'plain English' requirement for some documents issued by the financial institutions to retail customers in the UK. I saw first hand what that means when we did projects for banks: bank's analyst sends a report to a professional investor- the text is almost illegible and full of jargon. Asset management issues a piece to retail customer and it's all easy to read and understand, because it was written with such notion in mind.
No, they can just bypass any attempt to stop them. It just becomes a case of whack-a-mole which FB or any other site knows they can never win. They will threaten legal action first. That is how influencerdb got taken down, Facebook threatened them and influencerdb didn't have the heart to go to court.

Maybe some line lasers are made like that (now that you mention it I do recall seeing tripod mounted lasers which are probably spinning POV things), but I’ve got a bunch of line and cross laser modules which 100% do not have moving parts. I’m not sure why I think this, but I understand they’re made by just putting a glass cylinder in front of the laser diode module, working as a kind of 2D lens... Pretty sure that’s what you get in jigsaws and circular saws as well?

Do you mean to say that nothing can tell you such a thing?

What is a likelihood, but a statistic?

If there is any method to determine a statistic, it seems reasonable to me to say that that method involved statistics.

(Now, of course, except for possibly where quantum randomness is relevant, which might be quite often, I'm fairly confident that the only probabilities are subjective or relative to some set of assumptions, or something along those lines, because the future "already exists".
But, given some fixed priors and some fixed evidence, there should in principle be a well defined probability of such a crash. So, insofar as peoples priors match up, there should, in principle, be a common well defined probability given "the information which is publicly available", or also, given whatever other set of evidence.)

Of course, that doesn't mean it is computationally tractable to compute such a probability.
> When minorities are made "ambassadors" as though they suddenly speak for EVERYONE in their minority, it is awful, and wrong. People don't get this: "But X minority said it was OK..." No, it takes literal diversity of opinion.

Which is why the entire concept of demographics-based "diversity" is such a shambles. The premise is supposed to be that if you get some women and minorities in there then you'll have a diversity of opinion.

But then you select for the women willing to work 80 hour weeks, which is highly atypical and selects out e.g. prospective mothers, ensuring they're not represented in your organization. You select for the minorities with degrees from prestigious schools which selects out people who know what it's like to grow up poor.

You end up with diversity on paper but not in practice, which is not only useless but worse than nothing because it creates the impression that you now have a diversity of opinion and you don't.

This reminds me of a talk I watched about research into human pheromones.

The speaker talked about how literature and studies on pheromones all lead back to 1 or 2 old studies that were basically considered bunk, but researchers kept citing it, and other researchers would also cite the other studies that linked back to the original low-quality studies. His point was that the whole field of research into human pheromones needs to blow away all the literature up to this point and start over because the whole thing is so tainted, and few are willing to actually make sense of what's true or false with what currently exists because so much of it is self-referential.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least that there are other areas of science that border on needing to start from scratch.

EDIT: I believe it may have been this talk, but I don't have time to scan the whole thing just yet. It looks like he begins talking about the problematic research after ~17 minutes. It's still worth watching none the less:

fair enough on the anticipation, but when I have let autopilot take over it has often been only seconds before I'm already uncomfortable with the decisions it's making and spotting the really rookie driving mistakes it makes.

autopilot creates danger where none needed to exist by not using the full width of the lane and failing to create space through relative small speed adjustments. The cues it gives off while driving are some of the exact things I watch for when trying to identify beginning drivers so I can give them even more space.

I certainly would not describe autopilot as 'good' on highways. I'd barely call it adequate.
