The problem really is a lack of solutions that just work with no setup required.

The only two environments I have used where things just worked were VB.NET using Visual Studio while at uni and Dart using the IDE/editor they bundled in the early days (I think they discontinued it).

More capable perhaps, but I’ll take software I can use over Eclipse any day. I repeatedly get pushed towards eclipse for a number of different things all the time and every year I give it a shot because I know things can change over time... and every year I walk away deeply frustrated and spend another year throwing anything that requires working with eclipse based tools, strait into my mental trash bin.

>US-centric views of love have evolved more towards ‘if it feels right, do it’

Wikipedia on the early history of Saturday Night Live:

>Drugs were a major problem during the show's first five years. "The value system that was around there was, as long as people showed up on time, did their job, it was nobody's business what they did in their bedroom or in their lives. That value system turned out to be wrong", [Show creator Lorne] Michaels later said. [Original cast member Dan] Aykroyd said that "The cocaine was a problem. Not for me, it was never my favorite... but it was around a lot, and it was affecting the work, the performance, the quality of the scripts... wasting time, and that was bad".

The one exception among cast and crew:

>[Jane] Curtin remained on the show through the 1979–1980 season. Guest host Eric Idle said that Curtin was "very much a 'Let's come in, let's know our lines, let's do it properly, and go' ... She was very sensible, very focused", and disliked the drug culture in which many of the cast participated. Show writer Al Franken stated that she "was so steady. Had a really strong moral center, and as such was disgusted by much of the show and the people around it".

For Curtin to have made it through the first five years of SNL without succumbing to what almost destroyed the show and those who were a part of it—during the 1970s in NYC, the era of Studio 54, no less—is remarkable.

I'd rather they pay with employee time than donating money. Developer time is most of the time the more scarce resource.
As I'm reading it no one is claiming they mitigated damage in the 70s/80s or that they didn't cause damage. They did however pay $40 million to fix some damage in 1995 and were granted indemnity by the Ecuador government in return. Some arguing on how good of a job they did but seems to have been at least somewhat decent. Other environmental damage was found but it likely happened after Chevron was no longer involved in the project. Together that means they're off the hook legally which is all that a lawsuit is about (rather than morals or ethics). Chevron covered its backside legally very well it seems to the point where the other side resorted to less than legal behavior.
I guess my perspective on this is slightly more permissive, in that I don't actually care what your underlying beliefs are as long as the point you are making is a coherent / valid one.

It shouldn't matter if you are pro-Trump if a bunch of people are being anti-Trump in a wildly over-the-top way and you want to point that out. Or vice versa – if you're surrounded by Trump loyalists and want to point out that something he did you disagree with, you shouldn't have to say "I love Trump but...", you should just be able to say "This is dumb, he shouldn't have done this".

The problem is that we've polarized everything to the point where this isn't very feasible.
I agree people should have room for errors. However this person's job was "race and inclusion editor".

If someone's job was to say "guard a vault" and the vault is robbed because they had a bad day, it's reasonable they are fired.

I don't think this person should be "cancelled", but I can't imagine keeping this person in such a role.
Pleased to help speaker more clearer. That goal.
Right, but giving someone advice based on a sexist view isn't a crime, so someone who signed this NDA and then got sexist advice wouldn't have any legal grounds to break the NDA.

There is a balance between memorizing/finger memory and reading across piano players.

This is a glaringly bad faith interpretation of my post. You know what I meant - an op-ed featuring say a pro-pedophilia stance should not be published in a national media. This is not "discussion" or "public forum".
This meshes with an experience I had a few years into my career which I'll never forget and had definitely influenced and will continue to influence my future interactions with women in tech.

I, cis white guy in the bay, was hired as a consultant to help build out a product and was pair programming with a woman founder & new engineer and made some passing comment about the CSS quality not being "ideal" or something of the sort. This was later brought up as something that they interpreted as some kind of sexism which completely caught me off guard and put me in a very awkward position of having to respond to that and explain that it was just poorly phrased, not sexism.

In the grand scheme this was very minor situation, e.g. no managers, HR, or social media involved, just between a few people on the project, but it's something I'll never forget and had colored how I interact with women going forward.

Basically I just want to avoid that ever happening again because if you're on the "No I'm not sexist" side of the argument, you've basically already lost in how society engages these days.

But will taking away abstractions address what the paper is talking about?

If we can abstract away the models and training, I see an opportunity to focus more of the dataset. If you look at something like Pytorch Lightning (and I think fast.ai but am not familiar) you can deploy very powerful, and proven, models without having to get into the details. What might still be missing are more tools to work with the dataset - easily varying size, composition, using active learning, etc. But it's all supported by more abstraction.

(I'm a huge believer in the importance of understanding things from first principles, so I agree with making sure students develop their skills that way. But when it comes to practical work with datasets, abstraction is very important)
Have you considered that Fox News doesn't represent most Republicans? Or, people with more conservative values?
A good reason to flag a post is that it seems like trolling. You shouldn’t need to feed the troll to downvote or flag them.

I don’t even think it would be good to require a private explanation when downvoting or flagging. In my experience with other services with user-generated content, negative feedback signals for community driven moderation are very valuable and most users never give them. You want the process to be as streamlined as possible. You can give more weight to feedback from more trusted users, which HN does in a transparent way by gating the flag and downvote options to accounts with more reputation.

To be clear, I think the comment here is a good contribution. There’s a lot of passion about this topic and the system seems to break down somewhat.

> “Most of the soldiers have been disconnected from the world, and for them the Tatmadaw is the only world,” he said.

> The captain on active duty said it was common for unmarried soldiers to draw lots to marry the widow of one who died in battle. The woman, he said, has little choice about who her new husband will be.
> Are they implying white men are smarter/better so they always take the right decisions? If that's what they're doing, they're also implying, in this case, she, as a black woman, is not as smart as a white man.

I suffer a bit from imposter syndrome, so I completely get what the GP is getting at, it was just phrased ambiguously.

Here is a disambiguated version: "Imagine what a privileged, entitled, overconfident, upper-midlle-class cishet white dude would do, and do that."

No matter how well you believe you have expressed yourself, it is always possible for someone to take your words the wrong way (not the way you intended them to be taken). You can, and should, take the time to craft what you say so that it best (given constraints) represents what you want the person to understand, but that is not always enough. Sometimes, people hear what they expect to hear, not what you say.

> Why are people so attached to name "class". Call it "namespace with state capabilities" if you're annoyed by "class" so much.

The central, first-class “namespace with state capabilities” in OOP is an object. A class is a namespace with state capabilities that may (or may not, because pure static classes are a thing) be an object factory, may or may not be an object or first class entity, and, probably, if the language has static types, is also a type.

And all of that is also true of objects, except the last, and objects are always first class in OOP. So, aside from static typing, classes are superfluous, unless they are just a name for objects with certain common feature.
Enough to perk up some ears, not enough to get excited about.
I know multiple white men who, when passed up for an opportunity, will say it's bullshit, they deserved that opportunity, and there must be {politics|nepotism|treachery} for this to happen. The difference is that they can't claim sexism, and there's no word they can throw at the person in charge of the decision to strike back on social media the way labeling someone sexist / racist can.

I imagine people who like to make things but don't like to spend money are attracted to software in particular because it is one of the few things that one can make with very little investment. Many of us may have found different loves if other hobbies weren't so expensive. This, perhaps, biases the type of person you find in the profession.
Adding initial impressions:

The first-blush API for defining a web component looks pretty nice and simple. Probably won't have the best performance in the world but that's fine for situations where I just want to sprinkle some interactivity to a server rendered or static site.

The store looks nice in some ways, but the actions/mutations language looks very boilerplatey and convoluted. I feel like I'd want something much simpler like jotai or zustand.

The event bus... seems on first blush like it'd be awkward to mix multiple event buses into a single component?
This is a misrepresentation of how lawyers manipulate facts. Lawyers take a serious professional risk of sanction from the court and/or disbarment if they make material misstatements of fact. Unlike journalists, the facts are also carefully examined by the opposing side (if they are doing their job) and there is a more open exchange of documents/evidence than in any other context.

If an attorney lies in a court filing, they can be sanctioned, they could be held liable for malpractice / other civil liabilities, be criminally liable, fined, lose their job, or even lose their career.

If a journalist misstates a fact that harms someone else or ruins their reputation, they add a little thingy in italics a few months later saying "oops lol guess we wuz wrong." Occasionally serial fabulists lose their reputations and careers, but generally do not suffer criminal or civil liability for their mistakes. The two professions are not terribly comparable in that respect.

The moral expectations a lawyer is under are also not the same as those of a normal person in the American system. In the American system, even if you are defending a pedophile cannibal, part of your role is to ensure the integrity of the system by providing said reprehensible person the best possible defense without lying about the facts. This ensures the good reputation of the court and, in criminal cases, builds public faith in the integrity of the prosecution. That is the ideal, even if the reality does not always live up to it.

Clients make tons of decisions in either civil or criminal cases while being advised by counsel. A lawyer cannot ethically take an action without the express approval of their client. True, clients are not generally in the driver's seat, but attorneys are limited to advising the client and only acting with the express consent of said client at every step in any kind of process.

Should journalists be held to similarly high ethical standards? That was what the professional journalistic organizations once aspired to, but they have slipped a great deal over the decades.

At a previous job, I worked under a woman who managed a practically-all-male engineering team. I think part of what made her successful at this was that people in our company had a great sense of humor, and she was an enthusiastic participant in our lunchtime bull sessions, ribbing each other and whatnot.

Not only did these kind of conversations make the company a more fun place to work, they also made it easier to speak critically to each other, because our critical feedback didn't seem like a big deal in light of the daily ribbing. There wasn't a lot of corporate BS at that company either--maybe not a coincidence.

I imagine there are other things you could do, like curse frequently, if you wanted to broadcast that words don't easily upset you. But telling jokes seems best if you think of one.
Yes, that's basically what this is.

White men can and do blame sexism and racism for their failure to advance all the time, and have been doing so since the day when overt discrimination in their favor stopped being a near-universal norm.

EDIT: of course, the audience that is favorably predisposed to such complaints is very different to the ones predisposed the same way toward claims from other groups, but it is very large and socially influential.
Sadly, people in general can't take feedback.

Yes but especially in a corporate setting you may be receiving those documents regularly. Maybe it’s a supplier who has a particular format, or a customer who sends their designs in a certain document.

Or maybe HR receives resumes and a certain percentage don’t open because of a bug.

Then there’s stuff beyond bugs. There’s training and migration for people who’ve been using MS Office all their lives. There’s early access to RCs. There’s support if you want to learn how to deploy within your enterprise rules. Maybe your enterprise gives employees locked down laptops and the way their laptops are locked down prevents a new update from working.

Finally, you may have migrated and would like to use a portion of the money you’re saving by switching away from the Microsoft solution (which is significantly more expensive for enterprises) to keep the solution that allows you to save that money supported.
It appears that is what bash does.
IANAL, but I suspect it's still going to cost lawyer amounts of money to defend yourself against the other party saying you broke NDA.

This year I mastered every song and I found that I could play any other fake book song the same way on sight. Then I tried doing it without the book and was shocked to find it pretty passable.

The music (real chords and melody) is much more fun for me. It gives me a beautiful structure to play around with.

The singularity approaches.
Based on your original post, I guess you could say that if you give honest feedback to men but not to women, you could also be labeled sexist. But the chances of anyone finding out that's what you're doing is pretty low, perhaps lower than getting labeled sexist for giving honest feedback to everyone.

I feel like "giving into the fear of being labeled" doesn't fully capture the risk involved. For many people that labeling means the end of their career, or at the very least a lot of personal and professional embarrassment, plus a big negative mark on their record. I have a hard time looking down on anyone too hard for giving in to that fear.
Any reputable news org clearly labels opinion pieces as such.
