>no, for explicitly damaging a business. politics and drama don't contribute to a productive work environment.

I mean, that's the point of inclusivity, marginalized people just want to be able to do their jobs and avoid politics and drama. But it's hard to do that when they're being marginalized.

>if they would help business, they wouldn't be needed because businesses would implement them as corporate policy on their own.

A lot of them do. Small companies don't have resources to come up with extensive policies so that's where the laws become helpful.

>I'm indeed shaming activists who promote violence or similar b/s (ie. punch a nazi, or BLM rioters, ...) for not being normal acting. Would you describe them as normal acting? [...] Again I'm not talking about people advocating for fairness. SJWs are troublemakes, not advocates.

These comments are exactly why I say the term is emotionally loaded and you should avoid using that term, please don't draw false equivalences to attack stereotypes and claim that everyone who advocates for justice is troublemaking and promoting violence. You might not mean to do that but that's what you're doing when you use those derogatory terms in that way. This is getting really close to flamewar territory again and I don't want to continue this conversation.
What on earth makes you feel confident enough to say something like “this just pretty much does not happen without reason” . Some empirical evidence I hope.
Yeah, this is not a bad idea.

It was my thinking behind going to Hacker Noon -- but they don't really do employment/job-related stuff.
The RGB subpixels of your monitor would be more apparent if you had a higher magnification.
Compared to what I see under my jewelers loupes, the first image you posted looks close to my screen under 90x magnification. They display different levels of RGB to show different colors.
We are not in the 80’s anymore. At least in the western world the police is far more prepared to help victims than in the past. Usually the victim is supported by a female investigator, because differently from the past, at least in bigger cities a sizable portion of the police force are women.
We are creating this culture of woman fearing getting help from police by pretending things didn’t change during the last 40 years

My biggest problem with git is the bad, buggy code I manage with it. Git blame tells everyone who commited the bug... and sometimes that's me.

There is a lot of complexity around managing code that gets wrapped into the discussion about git. Everything from CI to code formatters to linters to audit tools. Most of these tools aren't VCS's. They are often language and toolchain specific or are some other devops lifecycle stuff that really isn't what git is doing. What git does do, it does wonderfully well - and makes it as easy to work with an entire codebase as it used to be to work on a single file. If there is a complaint about git, it's the thing many other comments hit - switching branches with staged to uncommitted changes requires some care... and removing history (e.g. someone commits a private key) is a little tricky.
There are many vectors by which one can measure privilege: race, class, money, educational opportunity, parental guidance/availability, physical ability, and many more. It is entirely possible to benefit from one of those things without another.
My problem isn't necessarily that this isn't a good product in the sense that it solves a problem people have in a profitable way, but rather that this problem exists in the first place and the trends technology is taking to solve it.
I wish I didn't have to use a pseudonym but you've shown why it's necessary. If I used my real name, is there any doubt that people such as yourself would try to ruin my life? I don't want to get anyone fired from their job or harassed by a mob outside their home. I simply don't want to hire them.

The real assholes are the ones who proselytize their dogmas in the workplace. I wouldn't hire a devout Catholic who'd tried to convert coworkers at a previous job. The same goes for a Trump supporter who'd pushed their employer to donate to the NRA. Nor would I hire an activist who wants to un-blind resumes so that hiring can discriminate based on race and sex. I don't hire these people for a simple reason: No matter how good they are at their job, they cause more problems than they're worth.

I don't agree.

She did not set her boundaries.
She did not effectively communicate boundaries.
She did not enforce boundaries.

One of Derren Brown's mentalism specials made use of bringing more than enough people into your scam that there will be an impressively large number of successes. Of course the biggest success stories are the only ones you will hear about, even though they are less than 1% of the people that fall for the scam at hand.

You only need a small handful of success stories to make something unlikely sound like a no-brainer.
How would you expect anyone to know the answer to that?

"The only theory which fits all the evidence is the one I laid out: asymptomatic transmission did not have a solid, high-quality study behind it yet, and medical culture has serious problems doing anything but rounding priors and weak evidence down to "zero evidence" instead of doing the difficult work of choosing the best option under uncertainty."

Yup. See also how long it took before the medical community came around to accepting that it's an airborne virus, despite very early evidence from China and South Korea to that effect.

Ah, that makes sense. Do iPhones connect to their RAM differently? I know it’s physically different than desktop RAM (for obvious reasons), but I don’t really know enough about hardware to know how it connects.
I like lazygit so far -- it's a TUI however. It makes working with git more tolerable to me.

I once asked Jacobson whether he would release the source code; unfortunately he wasn't able to do so; maybe the IP owners will change their minds some day (as others did with their outdated software).

I rarely see implementations of it. Some years ago I built a tool which shares a small subset of features with Objectory (so the transcluding links between items); here is the link in case you're interested: https://github.com/rochus-keller/CrossLine.

Isn't that what bookmarks are for ?

I have a bookmark called "my issues" that opens jira with a custom filter where I appear, and another called "my merge requests" that opens gitlab with my open MRs. I can rename those bookmarks to be shorter, maybe "i" and "prs" if I want. My browser is configured to not show any search suggestions, so I literally type "merge<TAB><Enter>" and I'm on the list of merge requests.

Jumprope would give me the added benefit of sharing those with other people, but I like building my own configuration -- what makes sense for someone may be counter-intuitive for me, and vice versa.

I don't think there's anything wrong with this. The correct answer is not always "outsource to AWS"; dependence on AWS (and any external dependency, especially those you have to pay for) is also tech debt. Everything you do is tech debt, and since this is just you, building it yourself is not only respectable (here, have an upvote!) but could also perhaps be something you end up doing 2-3 years down the line, and you've just gotten ahead of yourself.
Breaks PWAs though.
Wasn't Opera doing something similar too for a while?
Thanks for those links! Didn't know Amadeus had something similar.

Just like with Sabre, it seems all the "juicy" stuff is in the Enterprise API (which is opaque on pricing and setup -- you have to contact the sales team to get access).

Do you have any insight into whether it's possible for individual developers to get access to that enterprise API, and what the fees look like?
Thank god for long books and summer weather.
I'm nervous about this because it's not like living lifeforms don't have a track of adapting and overcoming evolutionary hurdles. I really hope it works as expected and they have contingency plans ready, because I'm sure they're not staying there if experiment fails.
No, the main problem is these trolls have a realistic chance of winning a suit over these ridiculous patents.
This is my go-to as well. I use commit messages like "intermediate work" and then push to origin to make it clear things are in a temporary state from the outside (i.e. someone looking at exploding check builds).

You can usually infer exactly what I am working on just by reading the latest commit messages on all of my branches.

dropbox offered server storage space, something most people did not have , and it was free. everyone has a browser and internet connection already, this service is only offering faster speed.
We should also take into account that this number of false accusations is probably the number where this was clearly determined by the court, probably with legal repercussions for the accuser.

I 100% agree with this, but would add that actually in my case I feel like it has helped with Silicon Valley style interviews. Architecting a single BEAM application involves a lot of the same thought processes that go into designing any resilient distributed system so I have felt well prepared for any design questions. Additionally, being forced to write algorithms with immutable data structures, recursion and explicit state prepares you ridiculously well for solving the graph questions that FAANG like to give in interviews.

For me the staging area is almost the most important feature of git. I often use it to stage new code that already and then step by step add more code that works.

This only works if you use a GUI like Sourcetree . With the command like staging isn’t much fun.
Tensions rise as return-to-work plans gain steam
My anecdotal evidence is that the one time I’ve seen this happen in real life, a former friend of mine had a group of ex-girlfriends talk to each other after their relationships with him about how he beat the shit out of them, which he did, which is why he is a former friend. He admitted the abuse to me. They did not try to character assassinate him.

I’ll give these victims the benefit of the doubt.
Hardcore wokists scare me. They really remind me of Bolsheviks and of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. There is something inhuman, inflexible, power-obsessed, and sociopathic about them. Psychologically, they are in many ways the same type of person as the Bolshevik and the Nazi.

All of the "nerds" as someone else called them up thread, would have to develop EQ, and stop holding onto their intelligence as their self-worth. The huge cultural shift that would take is not impossible, but often feels insurmountable. We're in the year 2021 and still using the term "nerd", for instance.
Is that Chinese IP law being broken or US IP law? I don't know how Chinese IP laws work but of course Chinese should follow Chinese law and Americans American law. Anything else is completely irrelevant.

About Huawei: Getting a fair trial is impossible. The evidence is mostly "three letter agency said so". The US justice system is not going to let Huawei be Innocent until proven guilty. It's not even about courts but straight to Guilty as proven by politics. Cisco is at least as big a danger in any system but they aren't Chinese so that's a different matter. (Look at the massive amount of "accidental backdoors" Cisco keeps churning out for a great example of real danger to network security.)

If you believe hacking is one sided or lopsided I would recommend you read some books about the topic. There are some pretty good ones from former NSA people for example. The fact is the US is by far the one who does the most hacking. No-one should be in doubt of that and I don't think anyone are after Snowden. You just seem to believe that "your" hacking is more okay than theirs. It really isn't. Besides, the NSA and CIA steals trade secrets and IP too as whistleblowers have stated multiple times.
> So it is ok for the government, through their spending power, to make your business unsustainable where it was in fact very sustainable pre-covid?

Okay, I'll bite on this: "Yes. It is."

Was your business paying healthcare? No? Then no sympathy.

Were your employees getting public assistance? Yes? Then no sympathy.

I can go on. These are not "sustainable" businesses without external funding in the form of social benefit programs.

The lack of movement in the minimum wage has allowed FAR too many businesses to abuse employees while pocketing the profit. The restaurant sector is particularly egregious with their exceptions. Outsourcing is also particularly egregious in things like "cleaning staff" where the hired contracting company simply can't do the job without violating even the horribly low minimum wage.

If unemployment benefits pay better than your job, that says something about the employer, not the unemployment benefits.

> This idea that individuals aren’t allowed to publicly criticize the actions of public figures, or report on their own experiences with public figures, is so painfully stupid that I find it astonishing that you are arguing in good faith.

Then maybe you should step back and consider the possibility that you are misunderstanding the point and arguing with a straw man. I never at any point said that “individuals aren’t allowed to publicly criticize the actions of public figures”, and I don’t think you’re acting in good faith by interpreting me as such.

I’m not saying the court of public opinion is the wrong venue for this sort of thing; I’m saying the court of public opinion is, by any reasonable standard, a kangaroo court, and we should exercise much more caution and skepticism toward its judgments than we exercise towards the judgments made by a court of law. Keeping this caution in mind is, in fact, what distinguishes a measured application of social/professional sanction from outright “mob justice”.

Google is already pursuing some extremely expensive bets - GCP (see people upthread complaining about this), Waymo. At some point, it’s hard to spend any more money productively and the best thing to do is return it to shareholders to do as they please.

Google could blow all the money buying Coinbase or something, but shareholders would probably prefer Google give them the cash to made that decision individually.
1. That’s not strictly true. Masonry construction isn’t impossible in earthquake regions, but it can’t be very tall and has to be reinforced. The details depend on the jurisdiction and building code. As an example consider the vast number of cinderblock commercial and light industrial buildings (mostly 1-2 story) throughout California.

2. Earthquake prone areas are a minority of the surface area of the earth. Suppose just the non-earthquake prone areas shifted significantly toward local masonry as a building material, that should still greatly reduce supply pressure for lumber.
A solar shade would also be a solar sail -- it could maneuver by changing its shape to catch the solar wind differently. It would still need to station-keep (perhaps even more because of fluctuations in solar wind), but it wouldn't need to use propellant.

Where I work, that sort of behavior is classified as "workplace bullying", and I think that's accurate. My concern with political discussions being common is that people will be expected to conform to whatever happens to be dominant in that workplace in order to remain on everyone's good side. I don't know if it would be possible to refrain from participating without being called out, because people will think you're hiding something.

It isn't about wanting to deceive, it is about their seemingly unwillingness to admit; these are related, but not at all the same. It is the same kind of semantic difference people think is really important when discussing scenarios like "you didn't misplace my item on accident, you discarded it on purpose and we both know that: I want to hear you say it out loud".
> Have you ever filed a police report regarding rape/sexual assault?

no, have you?

I do know people in the system so I'm quite familiar with how they work (and what is lore from the US and Hollywood that people assume vs how it works). Germany isn't some Banana Republic, so she actually gets a professional (even she shows up without a lawyer) walking her through these things.

> It can be incredibly dehumanizing

so you do have personal experience with it how this works in Germany? Do tell me, is it more dehumanizing than going on social media and knowing that you will be hunted by misogynists for the next couple of years so you won't ever get closure and need to hope that the mood of the mob doesn't go against you one day (because you have no legal ground to stand on)? I hardly think so.

You are absolutely right! Having worked with Durkin for years, there is no doubt he is a narcissist and a psychopath, and beleives his own lies.This story is the tip of the iceberg and hopefully the rest will come out in due course.

Sure, but most of these otherwise successful products never even attempted a business model. I could pick a dozen Google apps today and challenge you to determine how Google ever expected to benefit from them. Ironically, most random Google apps don't even display ads. I assume some might exist solely to collect ad data, but I am not sure if Google's ad team is investing steadily in how to mine worthwhile data out of each and every scattered new Google app.

Which is to say, there's probably a decent number of apps Google created and shut down, which probably would've been pretty successful companies on their own with a modest monetization model. But Google never attempted it, because the user count didn't hit nine figures.

The idea that there are alternatives for anyone but a fringe market without Google is pretty short sited, for example my phone warned me 4 times before it would let me install and use f-droid, each message made it sound like proceeding was compromising my phone.
