> So the victim has no responsibility if blood alcohol level is too high for good judgment, but the perpetrator is responsible no matter their blood alcohol level and judgment?

Exactly. That's why they're called 'victim' and 'perpetrator'.

If the victim got triple blackout drunk, the only person they'd hurt is themselves. But the rapist, in addition to physical damage, inflicts deep, lasting psychological damage upon their victims. It's not just "regret".
> The interface, however, is like some incredible piece of outsider art, gloriously free of best practice, convention or accepted wisdom.

That was a wonderful way to put it. Excellent writing.
Even if you had multiple other people corroborate it?
I doubt that is possible with the 64 byte limit (at least making something that makes sense to read as a poem, as per the challenge).
Future ARM Surface laptops will probably be faster than Graviton per-core but obviously with fewer cores.
So are you saying that victims (of slander) must win a court case to have their story believed but perpetrators (of slander) should be taken at their word?

The sword cuts both ways.

Except it doesn't, because if you're in the news for {serious crime} and later clear your name, your reputation is still probably trashed. There is no real mechanism for recovery in the modern panopticon. Lowering standards of evidence required for conviction (to basically nothing, if some people are taken seriously) is such a kludgy, cumbersome hack to solve this problem that it shocks me that people present it seriously. It's utopian thinking.
Was just going to post about My Fair Lady. Just recently on Netflix and very striking to watch it vis a vis the culture conflict we're in yet again.

I take the lesson of the film to be that high culture can be truly graceful and enriching (ie for Eliza) but can become a hangup when take as its own end (thus Higgins' faults)
It's a bit vague. I'm not involved in the Scala community and if someone told me a story like that about someone in it I would also tell them to stay away from them.
Well that's a fascinating page.

The trade-off between "might need" and "will need" is fascinating to think of (and pay for).
> suggests they're all silently colluding (by copying each others' quotas) to keep the Asian enrolment percentage at precisely the depressed X percent.

You need more evidence than a trend to claim that there is a conspiracy. And you can look the data & admissions guidelines publicly released in SFFA v. Harvard to see that there is no evidence that quotas exist.

> Google does this by making the interview process easier for non majority groups.

Uh, but it doesn't. Speaking as someone who has interviewed 30+ candidates at Google and been present at hiring committees, there is no "lowering of the bar" for people of certain races.
To be noted, "EU industry chief Thierry Breton" being the former ceo of Atos, a big consulting (and not industry) firm; their solution will be, as always, to poor even more subvention money at useless big player and consulting firms.

And this will lead us to nowhere in term of chipmaking glory, but increase the huge pile of wasted money.

Even if we don't speak too much about it, but a lot of French and European money has already been distributed like that for the "cloud" and "virtualization" things, and so far it was completely wasted without any useful outcome.
I pretty much always have >200 tabs open, and it sometimes gets up to more like 1000. (Currently I have about 100 windows open, some of them with dozens of tabs.)

Works fine in Safari, somewhat in Firefox, but Chrome chokes and falls to pieces.

The easy short-term fix to this problem is: stop using Chrome and switch to a different browser. The medium-term solution is to improve the way Chrome handles resources for heavy browsing workloads.

Running every webpage on a remote server is a ridiculous response.

All the browsers could still be better with these kinds of workloads though. Someone working on browsers should spend a few months or years considering how to suspend and cut off system resources to background tabs, make sure no browser tasks are accidentally quadratic in number of tabs or windows, etc.
Happy starlink and pfsense user here doing just that.
It is worth noting that Google has shuttered dozens of products will multiple millions of users that nearly any other sensible company would not shutter, and which, outside of Google, would be considered wild successes. (So few are spun off as separate companies because Google's internal architecture is basically incompatible with anyone else operating their products.)

Google isn't interested in being a minority player in any market, if they can't capture it, they will eventually leave it.
As an aside, I was wondering what this "steemit" website is, and Wikipedia describes it succinctly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steemit):

> Steemit is a blockchain-based blogging and social media website, which rewards its users with the cryptocurrency STEEM for publishing and curating content, and is owned by Steemit Inc., a privately held company based in New York City and a headquarters in Virginia.

I found their welcome guide (https://steemit.com/guide/@steemitblog/steemit-a-guide-for-n...) and while it's great to see new, alternative social media platforms, it seems a bit complicated. Hopefully they find a way to make all this easier so that new users give it a chance.
How to promote your Ecommerce website
I used to work detecting ad fraud. Publishers would do bad things, call in, and try to get their account rep to get details.

Obviously I can't say "of the last 2500 ad clicks zero of them had any mouse movement over the ad before the click event" because then the publisher obviously just fixes their fraud software.

This isn't specific to Google or even advertising. Every company has figured out when dealing with abuse and fraud sharing the minimum amount of information is beneficial to the health of the ecosystem as a whole.
Wouldn't this completely break accessibility support of such web apps? This is part of the reason why omitting the DOM and rendering a UI with WebGL isn't the best idea. Maybe this could be resolved by sending the accessibility tree to the client, but it seems like a step backwards.
Does Company Culture Matter
Giving electric cars extremely long range. It would be much more sensible to make substantially cheaper electric cars that have ~75 mi of range, and combine that with a program that gives free rental credits for any hybrid/PZEV car to owners of that car.

Then you can have a cheap eletric car but get access to fuel-based cars when you go on a trip.
They are R&D’ing their own GPUs to vertically integrate according to some rumors from my Apple friends.
arguably they would proceed on an ARM design with or without the formal company acquisition. It's too good of an opportunity.
Google Pub/Sub Lite for Kafka Users
That would be Jazelle, I think handful of Sony-Ericsson phones supported that. Nokia was not a big proponent of Java (they had Symbian to sell), and that was all before Androids time.
> I personally found Mercurials a lot more palatable but at this stage git is pretty much ubiquitous.

What I really want at this point is somebody to build a mercurial frontend for the git backend, so that I get to use the clean frontend of mercurial to work with git repos. No, hg-git doesn't really work for this purpose, and I have tried it for my work git repos (which are in the 100k of commit range).

Apparently, there's a new git extension for mercurial that is closer to the model I want, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
Since the pattern is so similar, I now recognize this as a form of harmful #metoo activism.

- Attack entire community, not individuals

- Court of Public Social Justice

- The charges amount to unwanted advances being made during a social interaction where that would be acceptable -- not sexual harassment, nor illegal behavior.

Compare https://medium.com/@kristianlum/statistics-we-have-a-problem...

Make the problem about an entire industry: Holywood, Scala, MIT, Statistics. Garantuee public shaming and punishment for your target, by calling out criticism or disbelief as "victim shaming", people calling for you to lose your job, because they got angry reading a Medium post, not because you've been proven guilty by someone without a bias. Ending up in an apartment with someone in another country, drinking wine, but not remembering how much you drank, but you do remember that he did not drink anything (to play up him taking advantage over you), then crying and feeling upset, because someone makes an advance towards you, instead of feeling flattered and politely declining. Going skinny dipping at night in the sea with a bunch of clumsy rowdy tipsy researchers, then blaming an advance someone makes, on conference culture.

Go to the police, get your day in court, and let justice prevail. Not going to join a mob, because someone made you cry once. Even giving the experience sympathy would needlessly rile me up. I'd like to think about other negative things when interacting with Scala and its community, preferably technical.
same as docker - dependencies are downloading slowly before you get a container.
The cases would be prosecuted if there was evidence to support them. You can’t just punish people without proof. Contrary to popular belief the purpose of the legal system is not to make wronged people feel better.
I'm sure it happens, I strongly doubt it's "quite common". Especially relative to the incidence of it happening the other way (where an victim escapes and abuser and realizes they were being abused.)
It seems that this may be the only consequence of raping someone in many cases.
> The court -- rightly -- sets a very high bar to conviction

Rape convictions are so abysmally low that there's been a lot of rethinking in feminist circles as to whether the "beyond reasonable doubt" standard -- or even the presumption of innocence -- is fair or just. Some countries have been looking for ways to ameliorate this. For example, in thr USA, college date rape is such a problem that universities are required to investigate accusations of sexual harassment or assault and discipline offenders based on the looser preponderance standard, or be found in violation of Title IX by the federal Department of Education.
> in the Scala community

The allegations are serious. If the author believes she was drunk and did not consent to unprotected sex and taken advantage of that should be reported to the police and the courts due to the seriousness, it’s rape.

The title is damaging “in the Scala community” it tarnishes a programming language and individuals who use the language due to the act of one person. The language is dieing with dramas among 1-2 specific people out of thousands.

No one in the right mind would condone the allegations or the perpetrator and sounds like at least one incident a matter for the police.

The allegations are against an individual and the ScalaCenter handling, not the community. The blog post lists individual people in the community who supported the author. I do wish the title wasn’t as click bait or more specific to the perpetrators as it is damaging, killing a really interesting industry and technology.

I hope the author finds the peace and justice they deserve from sharing this. The public naming and shaming will have serious repercussions for the accused.
This sounds pretty interesting.

Is this article suggesting that imports will see lots of inflation because of costs to ship goods to the US? And then a backlog growing in Asia, which will eventually flood the US just in time for the end of the Pandemic?

It sounds like the beginnings of an old-fashion over-inventory-driven recession. But the mechanics these days are different than what we would have seen in the US during the 1980s, since the factories are in Asia. I'm curious what the result of this will be.
The only thing that makes you sound like more of an asshole than this comment is that you actually have an anonymous account to be an asshole because you’re afraid of being recognized as an asshole (see this accounts bio).

Just be an asshole if you want to be an asshole.
> raped

I agree with everything else in your post except for the description of events as "rape". According to the story she wrote, they had sex when she was drunk, and she thought for months after the fact that the sex had been consensual. To me it sounds like sexual abuse / exploitation, not rape. (Unless you're making the pedantic argument that having sex with an intoxicated person is always rape, in which case 2 intoxicated persons having sex would mean that both persons rape each other.)
PSA: "Der Process", English "The Trial", is old enough so you can read it for free on the internet, e.g. on Project Gutenberg:

It's a really entertaining read.

And yes, it perfectly matches this situation - right in the very first sentence already.
You aren’t wrong, but (taking the corporate entity in question as a monolith, which is fair from the outside) “unwilling” is a much more honest word choice in cases like this since it clearly communicates that there was a real practical decision that could feasibly have gone either way. “Unable” lines up better with things that are infeasible, e.g. Apple can’t recover the data on an encrypted hard drive without the password or recovery key because it’s literally impossible or would at least require nation-state level computing resources to have a realistic shot at cracking even a weak password.

“Unable” is dishonest because it passes responsibility beyond the veil of the typical user’s ignorance. We’re so used to this sort of language that we’re conditioned to allow it even when we know it’s bullshit. It shuts down discussion and allows its wielder (inevitably a corporation) to avoid explaining itself. In the developed Western world we have a big problem with letting corporations do whatever the hell they want without explaining themselves, so I don’t think we should let them get away with this sort of thing anymore, and not being satisfied with mealy-mouthed evasion is one of the first steps down that road.

>Less than 1% of rapes lead to felony convictions

Car break-ins outnumber car thefts by several orders of magnitude. Assaults outnumber murders by probably a similiar amount.

I'd be very suspicious if there was a class of crime where any large fraction of instances result in higher level charges being brought. Especially with how plea deals work.

>between 2-8% worries about false rape claims are wildly overblown.

If 2% of the time cops fired their weapons it blew up in their hand or 2% of car crashes resulted in a fatality it would be an outrage.

2-8% is huge when you're talking about people's lives being permanently altered for the worse.

If anything the worries are under-blown. But then again, when compared to the rest of the court system (not that long ago they were framing random minorities in order to close cases) and prosecution process 2-8% might not be that bad.
What do you think is the ratio of Google non-employee campus staff to Google employees?
I dont think they are real.
Btw. I have 170 tabs open right now and I really need like 5 of them, but firefox uses 2 gigs of ram so it doesnt matter.
America is the land of rent extraction economics, so it actually makes sense.

Now if you can just launch into space and fly over it... well then America has some innovation.
Totally agree with you. Which explain why African immigrant that speak (proper) English and wear a suit and tie. Don't have trouble in job interview even if they are "black". While the Black American blame it on racism.
The first sentence is literally:

"The problem is that only a tiny percentage of harassers and rapists are ever convicted. The court -- rightly -- sets a very high bar to conviction, and police and prosecutors often won't even attempt it unless the evidence is overwhelming.".

First, its a poor place and topic for sarcasm (it just an observation, i'm not against it, i do have good friends like that) but more than that, GP actually adressed the point you're trying to highlight in his first sentence.
If I understand correctly, if you want to get something shipped, you can't pay a fixed price anymore. You have to pay spot, which is exhorbitant. So not only is there a massive delay in getting your goods shipped, there is a massive extra cost.
Women sleeps with infuential person and smears them after they are well positioned.
So you think a crime as endemic as rape which is punished at vanishingly low rates indicates innocence of the perps instead of a fundamentally flawed justice system, starting at the point of evidence collection? Even after seeing those very evidence collectors, the police, flaunt their duties and the law repeatedly?

Interesting.
How does interactions with local resources e.g. uploading a file work with Mighty, or VNC?
Ampere Altra is actually faster than Graviton 2 and you can buy it. (But apparently the motherboard is >$5,000!?!) https://store.avantek.co.uk/arm-servers.html
Just a side rant here... I'm really frustrated I can't monitor the Neural Engine's usage in the M1 in my MacBook Air. Apparently Apple did not build an API for extracting data points from the these 16 cores, so I can only watch what the CPU and GPU are doing when running and optimizing Tensorflow models while the NE remains a black box.
> Apple isn't harnessing magic here. The opportunity for competition exists, but everyone else is just sitting on their asses while Apple's chip team puts in the work.
> If you want to beat Mx, you have to think outside the box, just like how Apple thought outside of x86.

They didn't even do anything special. People have been telling multiple ARM IP holders to build a wide, powerful chip for ages. Especially for the server space.

Apple is just the first one to actually do it. AMD and Intel have been doing it all along, which is why it's so impressive that Apple's chip is finally in spitting distance of them despite being a fairly normal design with some specific optimizations for use cases.
Yay, that's exactly the thinking that got us into this mess - trying to squeeze every bit of efficiency out of the supply chain has spread every step of production far and wide (I already mentioned the global journey a pair of jeans is going on before being sold for next-to-nothing in a mall near you: http://competendo.net/en/A_Pair_of_Jeans) - which was possible until now because of cheap logistics, but the current situation reveals how fragile this really is. Maybe what we need is not more efficiency, but more common sense...
I'm not sure how you use --amend to do partial commits of a file.
>You're missing the point, people who are marginalized don't have the luxury of putting it down the list of their priorities. That's why they're marginalized.

You have this backwards. Minorities have the luxury of politicizing anything and everything they desire. Conservatives, males, whites, etc. are not afforded that privilege.

"Straight white males" are literally the only institutionally marginalized individuals in companies with these cultures.
I wouldn’t get too hung up on the RAM. Went from an XPS with 64GB that used about 16-20GB in my day to day, still able to use the same workflows and memory is handled fine behind the scenes on my M1 Air with 16GB. Maybe get your hands on one from a friend and play around with it. Would imagine ram heavy tasks like rendering etc would choke but I just run many workflows / builds simultaneously which works fine.

Git isn’t chosen on its own merits - it’s what the other tools support. If CI servers, issue managers, container tools etc all had a nice VCS-agnostic interface that would be great. But they don’t. We’re stuck with git or at least something that speaks git. Choosing an objectively “better” VCS is often directly coupled to the loss of some other tool.
> Why are you trying to spread misinformation? What's in it for you?

I can say the same thing with you. Why are you spreading false claims about inflation? But such discussions go nowhere pretty fast. As such, I'll take my leave with you. If you have no faith in my discussion points, there's no point continuing.

My final words: the suggestion that the Fed ignores energy prices / food prices is ridiculous at face value. Its listed right there in the statistics and well categorized in the statistics they watch.
I'm seriously curious to know what kind of proof you would accept that would make you believe these accusations.

I hear your sort of response a lot, but it's mostly from people who won't change their mind no matter what (and will continue to move the goalposts as more evidence comes to light), or set the bar so high that it's basically impossible to provide the proof they want.
So question then, what if the other person is equally incapacitated?

What if the other person believes the incapacitated person is not so far gone as to be unable to consent?

Is consent only consent if you give a breathalyzer test in front of a witness?
>The study, to be published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, demonstrates that people can accurately assess a stranger’s socioeconomic position — defined by their income, education, and occupation status

One takeaway here is that biases tend to be correct, which makes them that much harder to eliminate.
The Central Park five voluntarily confessed and were almost certainly guilty. The only issue was that there was a sixth perpetrator who had raped the victim after and wasn’t caught at the time.
Without being too flippant, I'd like to point out that we do actually hold wild bears accountable for their actions. There was a news report last week about a bear shot somewhere in the US because it had attacked someone (it seemed to have been trying to guard a particularly valuable food stash).
Many Hacker News users belabor the "innocent until proved guilty" angle when it comes to sexual assault.

Could it be that users of a software focused site are overcorrecting for the threat of being labeled creeps?
All for a "he hugged me", not even anything sexual
