The observed differences is due to choices like having babies and choosing different career paths, but for the same job it's objectively illegal to pay female workers less.

The feminists argue by taking the average of all wages, and of course women produce less economic value overall when they're still the primary caregiver in most societies.
I'm using a 7 years old TP-Link router wifi, the last official firmware available is from 2018. I disabled features like remote administration and file-sharing. I also setup WPA2, disabled WPS and have a strong password on the admin. What is the real risk for me? I get that it is always preferable to have an up to date device for security but I also wish to not create more electronic waste (and I unfortunately have stability issues with OpenWRT). From my understanding cracking a WPA2 passphrase isn't as easy as it used to be with WPA1 or WEP, and not having the admin interface exposed to the outside world limit the risk of someone breaking in. So realistically, assuming I'm not targeted by some APT group, would breaking into my router be that easy?
Are you sure? It cannot be very widespread. I've been living about 10 years in Paris and never heard "quartier de personnes de couleur" (POC neighborhood). Not a single time! Yet "quartier chinois" or "quartier arabe" are very common. But maybe my social circle is not very representative...

We don't completely disagree, I'm just saying that cryptography can help quicker and can solve much of the problem for authenticity where authenticity is can be expected.

And we're talking about a very specific issue here, not simply whether we trust information in general based solely on the medium. Were talking about deep fakes. Whether politician X Y said a specific thing on TV or not. (And not e.g. whether a specific general claim is true or not because that person said it.)

Yes with adequate literacy you can sometimes deduct that you are seeing a deep fake because e.g. Barack Obama or Tom Cruise could have not said it in front of the cameras, but it can be solved with technology and sometimes you will be wrong anyway. (And lets not forget that all of the information you can acquire comes through some media source and in the end you do trust some of them. This includes your teachers. It's just that if you have solid foundations then you are harder to attack. E.g. because no one can go back in time and hack your teachers and school books. But in theory it's still possible. Just think hod dictators do it over the long run.)
If $100/yr is too much, then it’s very likely your app isn’t profitable. A person doesn’t say “I would sell my product at Target, but spending money on gas to deliver it to their distribution center is too expensive.”

Literally, it’s $8.33 per month to be a part of the Apple Developer program. If your app isn’t making that much in a month, then your app isn’t very good or you’re bad at business. No disrespect intended, but $8.33 as a cost of doing business is so trivial as to not even be worth mention.

OK, sure. Those things are all true, but it doesn't change my point: He could have "realized" the gains any time he wanted and it wouldn't have affected the outcome of this scam. For all we know he actually did "realize" them at some point and just bought the coins again to send them to the scammer. It makes no difference in this situation.

If you've got a small team such that managing SSH keys is reasonable, you can just keep using git over SSH and add CI/CD via githooks. It's honestly very, very easy - put an appropriately-named shell script in the directory and git automatically executes it. Just make a script called post-receive that kicks off your process when a push has been made. The script will receive all the information it needs to know what branch/ref changed.

WSB is an "extreme" example. I think it happens ALL the time in very common places (including HN).

Some types of market manipulation are truly a bad thing. I'm sure someone engaging in some of the more egregious cases could rationalize their behavior as "it's just guerilla marketing, everybody does that".

That's not wholly wrong -- the intent is really more important than the action in these cases. Were people buying GME because they legit thought the fundamentals of the company were good now or were they riding a bubble?

I'm already too far down the river though, because now we could argue about whether there is something fundamentally wrong about speculating on pricing alone.

> Your list is predominantly racial and I thought that was the point.

Ah, no, that wasn't the point. They were just examples of systemic bias. The fact that so many are racial is just a reflection of the unfortunate state we find ourselves in.

> A few absolutely undeniable things, and they exist, would make the list more meaningful and perhaps give more weight to the rest which are a bit ambiguous.

I honestly don't know how any of the examples posted are deniable, they're all well founded with research and evidence. But you're right that adding more to the list can only help.

> Systematic bias doesn't mean that the majority gets more attention, it means that the entire system is biased against something, and you aren't showing that.

That's not what systemic bias means.

"Systemic bias, also called institutional bias, and related to structural bias, is the inherent tendency of a process to support particular outcomes."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemic_bias

Also, examples are evidence which support a theory (of systemic bias in this case). Any one data point is rarely intended to be absolute proof of that theory, much less a description of its scope in its entirety. All of these examples do indeed provide evidence toward the existence of systemic bias within systems without fully describing or proving the extent of the entire scope of systemic bias within those systems.

> But not serving a sentence for crime is just as bad, if not worse.

The article I linked explains that this is not what the algorithm was used for. It was not used to decide whether or not to sentence them, it was used to help decide the severity of their sentence.

> If they were predicted to be killers, a hard but fair sentence at the first crimes could turn them around. If they're predicted to steal a few cars then even a year in prison is probably going to make them worse.

You seem to be agreeing that this was in fact a badly biased algorithm, since it was recommending a stiffer punishment for a kid who attempted to steal a bike than for a repeat felon, previously convicted of armed robbery, who shoplifted.

> It would be, if it were system wide. It was a specific population though, and there's still no indicator that it said black kids specifically other than because in those neighborhoods they were the ones at risk. fwiw, stealing scooters from children doesn't seem like the path to good behavior.

If something affects a population, that is system-wide by definition, since the definition of "system" is pretty broad; see the description above. Regardless of whether or not you think stealing scooters is a good prediction, the fact here is that it rated the likelihood of future crime as higher than for someone who was already a career criminal.

> Systematic risk is AIs for this purpose in regard to anyone, not that they targeted black people more in some cases. That's essentially random.

If only. Unfortunately, this is seen over and over again, more so than would happen by randomness. That's the point of the list.

PS: any good ressources that distill such App Store & digital services? (even better would be also comparing them)
Do you really enjoy having 3 different managers to report to? All of whom have 3 different projects they’re dealing with? IMO, it’s better to have a 1:1 ratio of managers to teams. A 3:3 ratio is a recipe for endless meetings and communication overhead. 1:1 and 3:3 have the same number of employees, but 1:1 eliminates all of the communication overhead because there’s only 1 manager per team instead of 3.

In my experience, splitting managers, designers, and QA people across 3 simultaneous projects results in 1 project dominating their time and the other 2 projects being starved for attention. Repeat this across the product manager, engineering manager, QA person, UI designer, and project manager and you virtually guarantee that every project is going to be starved of resources.

Instead of having 3 separate product, project, and engineering managers split their time across 3 different projects and wasting time synchronizing with each other and the teams, it’s better to have 1 person handle the role of product, project, and engineering manager with 100% focus on the project and team.

I’ve worked in teams like you’ve described. It quickly turns into a mess of meeting scheduling conflicts, repeating every discussion 3 times because you have to communicate it to 3 different managers, and constantly working around blockers because your UI or QA person has been pulled into a higher priority project.

Put small teams together. Let them focus 100% on getting things done. Don’t cross everyone over to 3 teams. Don’t give everyone 3 different managers.
Because most self-hosted Git services like Gogs and Gitea include features not part of git, such as pull requests, releases, and issues, which require some kind of database.
> Apparently what it comes down to is the entire economy needs to be duplicated? Banks, payment providers, app stores, content delivery networks, web hosting, all the way to operating systems.

What it comes down to is if you're a fascist you won't be allowed to participate in the economy at all to spread your message. Service providers who cater to fascists will be cut off by the banks, and banks that refuse to do their due diligence w.r.t. fash in their customer ranks will be singled out for more in-depth investigation by federal authorities.
This is a story about a billionaire who imagines a rosy future full of unicorns and rainbows. What is the point of more wealth created by AI or magic genie from the lamp when it will end up in the pockets of the same people as always?
Even now, there is plenty of wealth, but it is concentrated in 0.01% of the population.

So, there is a straightforward question for Sam, why don't you give up your wealth now, same as all billionaires worldwide?

So spare me of the long rich guy "moral" story, answer is simple neither Sam or any billionaire around the world will. As usually when they do they do it through tax loophole relieves schemes, their money will never get to those who actually may contribute to this world if they could just free their time from the rat race.

So, when stronger AI comes online, there will be no fairness. All the immense riches will go to the same minority - that same minority or wealthy people will not give away as they will as always think that they are entitled to it. Same as Elon Musk believes that Tesla currently has a "fair" valuation.

... Fairness is a tricky word; it depends on the head, which is pronouncing it ...

>Java doesn't even support dependency injection, something that I would consider an absolute minimum for even a small project.

For small projects, DI is easy done by passing things via the constructor. If multiple things need to get wired together, pull that wiring logic out into its own class or method (FooBuilder.buildDefault()). If things start to get tedious, that's a really good time to stop and reflect on the design choices. That stop-and-reflect opportunity if often lost when things can be simply AutoWired together.
You would think so, but Toyota has TWO decades of experience with the Prius, and yet Tesla kicks both of their butts. Still.

And I know it’s still fashionable to bash Tesla on HN (Tesla is one of the few companies still pursuing customer-owned self-driving capability even after the overall hype curve has peaked and they haven’t yet reached their goal, so they get lots of grief for that, some of which is understandable), but their electric car offerings are head and shoulders above anyone else still. I’m looking forward to more competition that actually meets Tesla’s level of performance, maybe Rivian (when will they deliver?) or Lucid. The other pure electric cars on the market especially in the US are like toys in comparison (although still can be good value and better than conventional cars).

VW I hope will have a good showing, though. Still no one is really pursuing a good charging network solution that is seamless & practical like Tesla’s.
>> The United States could become perceived as a place that is inhospitable to capitalism and capitalists.

USA is already perceived as the most restrictive government in the world for citizen participation in any non-bank finance. And I have news for regulators: the banks are an anachronism. They are not making loans anymore. They only exist to sell loans to the government and buy them back as treasury-backed assets at a lower price. The difference comes from taxes. It’s a direct transfer of wealth from citizens to banks. They will probably be nationalized because citizens will realize how useless and parasitic they are. All business activity will abandon the banks and all investment will go into stateless financial systems. There is nothing anybody can do to stop this. The ‘protections’ (restrictions) offered by regulators now have negative value to US citizens. This is not some far-out warning. This is happening now. US financial startups are like rats abandoning ship to organize in Canada, Switzerland, Singapore etc. And they are all led by non-citizen US residents, because citizens take that regulation with them anywhere in the world. The best deal in the world right now is to be a permanent US resident with some other citizenship. That seems wrong.

Ease of access to piracy could play a big role. I haven't looked into this for a long time, but last I checked an iPhone needs to be jailbroken to side-load anything not from the AppStore.

While with Android even with most default roms it's just a matter of changing one setting in the options and transferring the pirated apk file to the device to launch it.

A much more straight-forward process with Android devices vs iOS devices and piracy strives on convenience.
PoW is an environmental disaster because of its terrible incentives. When the price is low the amount of energy spent isn't such a big deal because it will be limited by the expected reward (which is low), but the more the price raise the more miners will spend to get their rewards (which correlates directly with a higher energy footprints).

It's not the same system, they're quite different.

It is non-prescriptive, so it has less potential for bureaucratic waste than a means-tested system that is prescriptive about where the funds go, or worse yet explicitly spends the funds on specific publicly run programs that may or may not be efficiently ran and may or may not be what poor people need.

Also, the marginal tax rate gradient under negative tax is gradual instead of a cliff (which is usually the case in means tested systems) which helps to avoid the disincentive problem.
