What's sexist is the lack of agency ascribed to women, as in: success/failure is something that happens to women and something men work for/through. That is the textbook definition of objectification, very much the norm even today and in my mind perpetuated by modern woke feminism framing everything as "we're being oppressed", singling out men's contributions to the situation and ignoring women's own.

I have the deepest sympathy for any hardship you have experienced. From the conversations I've had with my sister and colleagues, it's obvious sexism and its effects are real.

That said, your post frames it as if your career is not in your own hands. Please afford yourself some more agency. I have overcome a narcissist parent, academic failure, classism and depression, working my way up to programming and a college degree on my own dime. I find it's fundamentally unproductive to see yourself as a car vendor mascot, being dragged whichever the wind blows. Engage with the people holding you back to get what you need and change your environment if there's no other way.

I found "Nice girls [still] don't get the corner office" (the second edition added the "still") by Lois P. Frankel educational. The book's about her practice as a career coach for women and lists the mistakes her clients make to subconsciously sabotage their own careers. Of the 101 errors in the first print, I recognised a good 30% in myself. All this to say: it's not because there's sexism and perceived sexism that there's nothing else going on.
It’s all bad.

You said it’s not true. Facts point the other way. Just because bezos is richer than gates, it doesn’t mean it’s not true to say “gates is rich”
>well this is mostly semantics: the quote does not contradict, most of the wealth was self-made.

Just for reference, and we don't know how much he really inherited, if he inherited $10M and put all of it into a SP500 index fund that earned 8% returns per year he would have $100M after only 30 years. This is with 0 additional capital invested, 0 effort, 0 skill in picking stock, doing nothing but tracking with the market so perhaps his "self made" status isn't really that impressive. The Author guesses he did better than average to make his fortune but that doesn't seem necessary at all.
Tim Dodd (Everyday Astronaut) and his group of friends had gotten permission to put a bunch of camera equipment right near the landing zone. They were psyched to have up-close footage of SN11 landing, or at least trying. They setup apparently $20,000 worth of cameras down there.

The last images those cameras broadcast were of large pieces of debris falling out of the foggy sky, smashing into the ground around the camera, splashing up dirt, and then everything went dead. I feel bad for the guy, but the look on his face as he realizes what's happening is priceless. I donated $5 just for that.

Edit: Here's the moment - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myVvmb2dF9U&t=2h19m32s
His examples are CNN image applications, and it is true that these were spectacular new results 10 years ago. Since then, the tedious engineering has improved and recreating the results now are indeed just a few lines of python.

The reason they were so impressive then is because it seemed they were "more intelligent" than they actually are, and people extrapolated the same level of performance on any task. Achieving it seemed more impressive then, than now.

But "AI skills" should be broader than image classification.

If you really cannot manage that, then your second best option is to have a wealthy spouse. It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing.

That's the nature of my understanding of crypto and why I asked the question. I don't know if Big Companies can dilute the effectiveness of crytpo. It's why I asked. Maybe off topic for this HN post. I don't know. Cryto intrigues me with the thought of a decentralized currency, but does it level the playing field? I don't know.
I'm fine with the option of that.

I would like deposits, withdrawals and rotating private key access, like Coinbase does.

But sometimes I just want exposure and the ability to spend it in the same service. This checks that box.
It already exists and it's called Web Monetization.

I recently wrote an article on it:

We plan to introduce something similar to CPython's argument clinic eventually. I.e., you will be able to declare what is the C signature of your impl function and HPy will generate the argument parsing code automatically.

One nice effect of such an API is that under certain conditions, implementations will be allowed to bypass argument parsing entirely: e.g., if I have a function which takes two C longs, the PyPy JIT will be able to emit a call directly to it, without having to box/unbox the arguments just to do the call as it happens right now.

However, on the other hand we will need to provide an API similar to the existing PyArg_ParseTuple, because we want to make it easy to migrate existing extensions
start the most advanced rocket engines (full-flow staged combustion cycle engines [1])

Well, not. During SN9 flight, one engine could not be re-lit, so SN9 crash-landed. During SN10 flight, the two engines that were needed for landing were lit, but there was an imbalance in the fuel mixture, one engine burned noticeable more yellow than the other, and now this. You'd think they'd analyze telemetry data from flights and on-ground testing and improve their design, but visibly they don't.

And they are on notice already from the FAA for routinely blowing stuff up near a populated area.

Yep, you can't know in advance what code will evolve.

I see that as an argument for my position, though.

It's faster to write less-readable code. Documenting all your abstractions takes time, as does making sure all your names are ideal, as does making the abstractions in the first place (and they're often the wrong ones if you do them up front).

A business only has so much money to spend on a tool or product, and they want maximal bang for their buck.

That comes from shipping stuff fast and seeing what sticks.

Once you've seen what features are evolving and matter to users, those are the ones you start refactoring and improving, both for functionality and readability.

Obviously, do what you can to make your first pass readable. Don't spend lots of time on it until you have evidence this code will be modified often, though, because on average it isn't.

I kind of hate this conclusion, and I'm not very good at it, but that's where I've landed these days.
“I’d Put My Money on the Sun and Solar Energy” – Thomas Edison
Isn't "they" plural? It's just one person. "it" is actually gender-neutral, singular, and even shorter, but feels like it should only be used for objects and not people.

Turns out it's a "he", so if we are focused on technicalities I should have used that, but for some reason I can't edit the comment.
Here in Germany VW is also considered pretty reliable and obviously has a huge network of service stations. But I'm pretty sure that's a pretty biased perspective.
Fair enough. Just don't conflate "belief in things I don't believe" with "anti-science".

SpaceX will not go bankrupt or have trouble raising money in the near future. Their ace in the hole is doing an IPO. With the current craze people would throw incredible amount of money at them. Talk to investors and everyone is bullish on SpaceX because they have a good moat, strong revenues and growth potential.
I saw someone mention PySnooper elsewhere in this thread, I think if I had known it existed before I probably wouldn't have bothered with `pyset_x`.

There absolutely is a difference between inefficient and efficient communication, and you're right to highlight it. There is no gap between efficient and pleasant communication, though, and attacking pleasantry as if its sin is inefficiency is pretty messed up.

Like you say, that exchange is no less pleasant, and of course way more efficient, if it's one message with better information density. That takes some coaching, but the answer (and to be clear I don't think you're advocating for it) absolutely isn't "be a grouchy turd in the name of efficiency".

(And arguably that should then be an email, but most folks have forgotten that email exists, so, yeah.)

Highly unlikely, good luck with that.
CC0 (with a zero, without the -BY part) is equivalent to public domain. I don't see how it would allow for the German popular sport of "Abmahnen" (threatening to sue). The reason it exists is that not all jurisdictions have a concept of public domain.

But yes, of course, if you use pictures under a CC-BY-* license, then you must comply with the terms (including attribution).
Yea, it was a while ago. 2012 to 2015 I visited many times.
The funny thing is that this is how a lot of people pronounce it anyway.
SN12-14 were cancelled due to them being based on the now-obsolete design used for SN8-11, right?
I thought the same, it sounds completely ridiculous.
Interestingly, these are actual concerns that firefighters have regarding both Teslas and self-driving cars. The relevant companies put out explainers and training videos on how to do a rescue in these vehicles.

In the Teslas, the power system is shunted through a single disconnect point... Cutting that line isolates the battery from the rest of the vehicle.

In Waymo cars, firefighters needed to be made aware that high-power electrical conduit and liquid cooling channels go up through the pillars, which are usually empty of energized components or contain only low-power channels (for things like overhead lights).

It contains a report of the behavior of the local Pilots that are supposed guide the ship through the canal.

Last line before the report

>Read this Statement and ask yourself – can such incident lead to accident like grounding or collision?

If the professionals are not doing their job and even causing issues on the bridge;

i.e.
>As soon as the master picked up the VHF and called Ismalia Port Control on Ch8, the pilot raised his volume high, started shouting, snatched the VHF from the master’s hand (which also resulted in advertently pushing the Master) and threatened that if same was reported “It will not be good for the vessel”.

>At that very moment, in his raised volume he called for fwd and aft stations and for both anchors to be lowered to water level, as he insisted on stopping the vessel and arresting vessel for faulty steering. He said vessel will be held at Bitter lake until sea trials were carried out.
Fwd station was immediately manned however anchors were not lowered as ship was doing 9 knots speed.

Then it could lead to accidents.
This is what happens in a meeting when someone says "there are no bad ideas". This is the sort of three beer spitballing that normally you come up with as a gag and yet they're committing to it, and whilst it's US only the likelihood is they'll do some aggressive product placement and get some global recognition around it.
Apologies if it’s super obvious to the rest of the people here, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what Unsplash offers? It’s not at all clear from the website, at least to me. Not intended as an attack, more as a PSA to make your purpose extremely obvious for the dumb people like me :)
I get that, provided you can actually get a ticket. For the vast majority of developers who can't get there, the online format provided much better talks than the on-stage versions that remote devs usually see.
I wonder how much internal resistance there was to this shocking name change.

Definitely! I would love to hear what kind of replacements they had to make:

>As part of our goal to optimize dependencies, we also updated and/or replaced npm packages that were marked as deprecated by their authors – even when they were deeply nested in the dependency tree.

I wonder if they just rewrote some smaller packages themselves, or if they managed to find a maintained alternative for all of them?
Then they should release a model called the Reo.

We got a good century of usage out of the term, but inflation has certainly caught up with it. A boomer that inherited $1m shortly after the end of WWII would be the equivalent of like $14m today with inflation.
Also rather important is to know what paths not to pursue in the search for a solution. Basically a solid understand of bias/variance will carry you far and help you avoid doing a week of work for an optimization that doesn't actually pan out.

And most people don't flip burgers. The median household income in the US in 2019 was $68,000/yr [1]. In the part of the US I am from, and the parts I have lived most of my life, this affords an extremely good quality of life with plenty of room for intelligent financial decisions.

So crying "this doesn't apply to people with really low incomes" is true to an extent, but that's only a fraction of the population. Going around saying "well, you shouldn't give that advice because it doesn't apply to everyone, it only applies to most people" is insane.

To clarify, I wasn't saying they were fully self-funding, just giving some additional context to "not that expensive". Given that they have hordes of investors willing to throw money at them (and for decent reason for once), they'd be foolish to significantly slow bootstrapping through the more capex heavy part of the roadmap rather then doing multiple programs at once, particularly when said programs have real synergy. But if for some odd reason they had to go it alone, it's so cheap and F9 beats others so thoroughly that they probably actually could at this point, which is a wild thing to write about super heavy rocket R&D. It'd make everything take many years longer though, and they'd have to prioritize differently.
Based on this behavior, my paranoid side is expecting a wave of copyright notices and invoices being sent to every single site that is using Unsplash images right now.
This has nothing to do with patents. They're not trolling, which is generally registering something and sitting on it waiting to sue. Sega is a practicing entity with a copyright on a game that's actively being sold.

Someone's made a mistake in this DMCA complaint and Sega's being difficult to reach to resolve it. It's nothing like patent trolling.

1. Fab Capacity has nothing to do with it. No one has committed to Fab Orders apart from Apple. It is politics and MSM Media decide to make an issue out of nothing.

2. Those Fabs are not leading edge and not target for the general consumer brands. The current target of 5nm in ~2024, a time when TSMC should be on 2nm GAAFET in their main Fab in Taiwan.

3. The only real reason is National Security, which is now being handled by Intel. These chip were used used and Fabbed by IBM and GF before GF's exit on leading edge.

4. 60% of TSMC's customers are US companies, but these US companies 's customer aren't 60% Americans. And not all Americans chips needs to be Fabbed locally.

Human biology is binary in terms of gametes.

Gametes are intrinsically linked to hormones and human development.

It makes sense to separate leagues in terms of natural, general groups like women/men.
Well that's the very nature of ponzinomics. How would you preserve social class otherwise? This is all working as intended.
I've been interested for awhile in how structural computing could be done in this vein. Generally less important for cars right now, but as self-driving technology evolves, I imagine auto manufacturers may become increasingly interested in how to tuck away enough processing power without sacrificing an entire trunk.
It just reaffirms that one should not put all money on one horse, and to keep a copy of all of your work under your own management. With photography that's manageable, with e.g. youtube that can become challenging if you're a prolific video maker (especially nowadays with 4K, even 8K video footage).

Anyway, always have an exit.
If Flexbox had been in CSS from the start I think people would have a far more favorable view of CSS.

If paypal allows people to deposit their crypto and pay merchants in fiat, you can be sure that they’ll quickly become the biggest seller of bitcoin out there. With the illiquidity of the btc => usd conversion, they’ll have to pay the merchant before selling the btc, which means they’ll have to take a huge margin to cover potential slippage.

No one wants to be the guy who sells bitcoin on a massive scale.
There's an article in German that is very critical of the comparisons they make:

https://www.golem.de/news/akkutechnik-das-maerchen-von-der-m...

Essentially the author argues that a comparison with state-of the art cells would mean that they achieve only 8-10% of the capacity per weight of conventional cells. There's a bunch of other specific criticisms in there about comparisons made in the paper.
This is true but I don't like that the math understanding is often treated like some magic secret that only a select few have access to. As long as you have a decent foundation you can research stuff and get deeper into the theory as necessary. And this inevitably happens when you switch problem domains even if you've gone really deep in a certain type of algorithms.

It's not too different from a software developer figuring out a new API/system/technique etc. but for some reason the attitude is that you either know it or you don't.

And in the context of this article, I think that the point is that even the deeper understanding isn't that valuable to many organisations.

Nice, I love fzf! It’s an amazing recursive search replacement, but my favorite use was a script I wrote for changing git branches, where they were sorted by most recently changed so that the branch you’re probably looking for is only a few lines away, but you can go back pretty far too if you want. It feels like tig but for changing branches, it’s awesome.
This makes me really concerned for the more established companies operating this way like Wealthfront and SoFi. Even Fidelity’s checking account does the same sweep stuff. Does this mean they actually aren’t safe at all?
> Locking computers while away in a locked office is like using PRs on a high trust team.

Making sure I follow. You're saying 'trust' within your team meaning they have all good intentions and 'trust' meaning they never overlook anything or make a mistake.

So as a result you don't do PRs?
Social scientists study complex things. Physical scientists study simple things. It's not really a surprise that the latter are more accurate than the former.

But that doesn't mean it's irrelevant. We got along just fine without knowing the mass of the Higgs boson. But we must make decisions about organizing society. Like all sciences that's going to consist of making hypotheses, testing them, and revising them when they're wrong.

As with medicine, we don't stop making decisions just because we don't have complete information or perfect models. We have to make decisions today. Sometimes they're wrong. But failed experiments are the essence of science. They're what drives the next hypothesis.

Sociologists and economists would love to have something as simple as particles or molecules to work with. They don't. They have human beings, which are insanely complex, and even harder to experiment on -- for logistical as well as ethical reasons. The remarkable thing is that there are patterns we can follow at all.
> Publish images with as hidden license requirements as possible

What exactly was going on? Have they published images in misleading way?

Or is it case of going after people who published images with "source: Internet"? Or case of attacking people who made honest effort to attribute author?

Because I am familiar with big corporations using freely licensed work and ignoring attribution requirements. For example Facebook is displaying map using OpenStreetMap data. OpenStreetMap license requires a clear attribution, visible to all users ( https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright ).

Facebook is ignoring that, Facebook employees claimed to be working on improvements, nothing was improved - attribution is still cleverly hidden.

The same with for example Snapchat.
