If you get drunk downtown, does it make getting your pockets picked and your smartphone stolen your fault?

You’re stupid if you get drunk downtown with an expensive smartphone where it can be easily stolen. Still, does it mean that you have somehow to share jail time with your thief, or does it mean that the thief has to serve less time, or that your thief may go with your smartphone because it’s your fault to get drunk downtown in the first place?

Explain please.
OJ probably did it but the prosecution failed to prove him guilty so he walked free as he should.

He's lucky he was a wealthy celebrity or he wouldn't have gotten the full protection that the courts supposedly afford to the accused.

It's not a responsibility in ethical sense yet it is street smart behaviour.

A less amplified example: if you walk into a biker bar, insult that the regulars are assholes whose bikes you just kicked over outside, they have no moral justification to hurt you just as people are ethically bound to not sexually abuse intoxicated persons in our society. But there's some chance the guys in the biker bar won't just call the police and politely retain you until they arrive and, instead, you get beaten into some half-liquid state of matter.

The reason for that is because the regulars likely follow their own rules and not yours or the greater society's. Similarly, predator-type people don't follow the morals that we recognize. If all you can resort to is morals, you will lose with people who don't play by your rules. If someone doesn't see a moral problem in the sexual abuse of a passed out person it won't help to merely remind this person of just that: the abuser simply doesn't give a shit but plays a whole different game.

This is where the society could step in with its justice system and link the abusive behaviour to something the abuser does actually mind, like a harsh enough conviction to make the abusive behaviour less inviting. But society also has to be fair so as to not give harsh convictions to people who have not abused anyone despite being accused of doing that, and then the waters get muddy again. In many cases there's no objective verdict to be reached because no third party can ultimately tell what the heck happened, even if actual abuse did take place.

This leads to the bizarre but common pattern where the potential victims have to become proactive in taking measures to not actually become victims, and in doing so limit their choices and decisions of what to do, where to go and with whom. The onus somehow gets transferred to the person who shouldn't have to use time and energy to prevent these things from happening. The potential victims are the only party in the game who follow the society's rules and they have that losing stance because of that.

They shouldn't have to have -- and they don't have -- a moral responsibility to prepare for the worst: the moral responsibility single-handedly falls on the perpetrator -- the one who doesn't ever consider morals! So, the result is that the potential victims are imposed by purely practical concerns to limit their choices in order to secure themselves against wrongdoings, just in case. It's not right but it's also smart -- that's the big dilemma.
I seriously recommend investing in a copy of Kerbal Space Program. There is no better way to gain an intuitive grasp of orbital mechanics.

The generous thing would be to fund a private AirBnB for her.
I don't agree. The crime here seems to be rape and the use of power to extract sex from another. That's the problem. I don't see how sharing an AirBnB is by itself a problem. In light of everything else, it fits a pattern of manipulation, but it by itself isn't harmful.
That tracks with what I've heard, anecdotally. Accidents happen when people plan their own dives, go alone, push too far out of their comfort zone, or dive in conditions they aren't prepared for. These things are risk and consequence multipliers.
Does it work with plugins and extensions?
This is the case
No that's the chance of death if you're already infected.

The fatality chance for a healthy person in the general population is the measure of risk for the average person. Using the same measure of population that the R value uses to calculate infectiousness.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_reproduction_number

Have you been using 1.8% chance of death as your chance of dying? I would be scared too.

For a healthy person to become infected is a very small number to begin with and highly biased towards the elderly or people with co morbidities.

You can legitimately lighten up. Your risk from this is infinitesimally small if you're under 55 and healthy.

If not it's still unbelievably small.
Just wait a couple of years until more software bloat and M1 becoming slow. Wirth's law.
Re. 2 I just checked: for the currently selected library, it shows you what looks like curated content from the library, to enable you to pick up on things that you might not necessarily do when just interacting with the app with searches and etc.
Well, that would be solved with --interactive, would it not?
I was stopped too by police and one time briefly searched, so what? Being stopped by the police is not a game changer. If you haven't done anything wrong you'll walk away and go to work and back home.

Why is being stopped by police such a big deal? I think the police should do more of that in the US, it would reduce crime considerably.
Have you looked at using a good gui for the repository? I find that helps a lot with the mess.

I used to use Git Extensions and lately I've been using the one built into IntelliJ's products. It's not as good, but it's available on mac, so my options are limited.
Agreed. It's a cool idea. It's not really computer science as much as a penetration test involving humans and processes.

Of course without any semblance of prior consent it isn't quite sabotage but definitely outside the realm of ethical
Bitcoin. In my opinion.
Is that really the case here? Is Google's marketing holding them back from profitability? Is GCP spending more on marketing than building useful products & expanding their infrastructure?
I was going to ask about where you see hostility. But judging by your comment history, it looks like you're just trolling and starting flame wars :\
you can literally just do this with bookmarks and '%s' - for example set the bookmark destination to https://www.google.com/search?q=%s and set the bookmark's keyword to 'google'.

you can now trigger a google search by typing "google [search term here]"

...after typing all this out i realize google is a redundant example but you get the idea

It seems like what you're asking for is a way to configure your coworkers remote computers. Shouldn't you do that with a more general configuration management tool, in the same way you configure any other application for your team? For example, on Windows you could use a custom Default User Profile with .git/config already set up the way you like it.
I disagree. It's common to see news headlines about things claiming to solve important humanitarian problems; they get shared on facebook, talked about over dinner tables, and online communities. They often ommit the downsides and alternatives, which in many cases (I speculate it applies here) make the product non-viable. For example: indoor farming, water-from-air schemes, solar-panels-in-surprising-places etc.

The HN community is more likely to provide a check on these claims - I think that's valuable. You'll find the acerbity is triggered by exaggerated claims, humanitarian claims, and lack-of-discussion of downsides. The TECLA page is filled with lines like this: "TECLA, a 3D printed global habitat for sustainable living". It sounds manipulative, makes me not trust them, and based on past experience, pattern-matches to most of their claims being false or exaggerated.
Perhaps why she did not explicitly call out rape in her message. However, it's a very realistic abuse and harassment claim, that in itself is already extremely problematic.
If you'd like to try out some of these concepts on your phone, I've been working on a side project -- an iOS mobile game called Solar Express [1]. You can launch a rocket, rendezvous and dock in orbit, transfer between moons and planets, and land. It's a bit like a mini-KSP with real orbital mechanics, but more casual - no rocket building, and lots of delta-V to play with.

Last time I used Perforce was around ~2006 in a mobile OS company of approx 3000 devs. Boy was that thing slow.

Still though, P4Merge is my go-to diffing tool.
Exactly this. Nobody cares about the M1 except for tech enthusiasts and Apple fans.

The problem is that you effectively have to run macOS to take advantage of it and that's a no-go for a wide variety of people. I don't even care if I can ever run Windows or Linux on an M1 because Apple will make it a pain in the ass to do so. They don't even have a fucking bios UI... Imagine enterprise IT shops rolling Windows out on that garbage? It'll never happen.

And I don't want ARM at all unless the systems built around it are as modular and open as the x86 ecosystem.
I recently started self hosting calibre-web[0] which consumes a calibre database and provides a basic web interface for viewing and uploading books to it. The killer feature for me is that it can act as a Kobo sync server. It makes getting my entire library onto my e-reader a breeze.

You don't need to cover the whole planet, just the parts under the sun. I'm not an orbital machinist, but maybe we could park just enough blockers in an orbit that's always between the sun and Earth to halt the warming. How much of the sun would need to be blocked to bend the curve down? Everything necessary on the ground to stop putting CO2 in the air is already underway. All we need is more time.
No. The two concepts have nothing to do with eachother. It’s bad that victims don’t get justice but it’s also bad if people are convicted of crimes they didn’t commit. Wrongfully punishing people without sound evidence just to satisfy the feelings of someone who was wronged is not a sane justice system.
I think blockchain is the poster child for this category.

She would not otherwise have been able to attend. She is able to attend specifically because of his "generosity". This wasn't something she proposed, and when she tried to bring others into the arrangement he pushed back, insisting it was just the two of them.

So yeah, sharing an AirBNB isn't necessarily bad, but in this case specifically it appears to be predatory.
Ok, let's say it's a man and a women, she's the "perpetrator" and he gives consent. She's his boss and they're on a business trip and drank too much at the bar. In the morning he feels taken advantage of and deeply regrets it because he's married. Do you still stand by that?
I think this is even better explanation.
I see what you're getting at, and yeah that sort of just world would be nice. You could ask "is everyone fairly compensated?" now though, and many people would not think to consider the various disparities that exist - the current system, to their mind, is fair.

So you have to look at the data, gather the facts, and force the issue:

---

Is everyone fairly compensated?

Yes

But, it looks like a woman is paid 20% less than a man for the same position. Is everyone fairly compensated?

Yes. (Insert sexist reasoning here).

Are women compensated the same as men?

No.

Why is that fair?

---

You could repeat this same thought process for so many other examples, where the general concept of fairness is rooted in inequality, bias, and prejudice.
What about false positives? How did you account for that?
Yes, I'm quite sure that people who would call themselves MAGA folks and voted for 45 are "more likely to live and let live" when they vote for a party who is actively working to take rights away from people (voting rights, rights to health care, rights to equal treatment under the law, etc).
>"I think people grossly exaggerate this. We have libel and slander laws."

I don't understand what those laws have to do with this? As if they somehow protect a potentially innocent party from incorrect accusations? At what point would an accusation such as the one in the blog post even constitute as libel/slander?
That’s exactly my point. The law enforcement is not adequate to the needs of society and cannot offer efficient protection for victims. Cancel culture can be ugly, but for many it’s the only way to get justice, and it is a sign that some reform is needed.
My Rust Workflow
It's not vague. Consent is an enthusiastic and unambiguous yes. Was there an enthusiastic and unambiguous yes? You have consent. Was there not an enthusiastic and unambiguous yes? You do not have consent.
I went from a 64GB XPS 15 as a developer utilizing ~10-20GB during general workloads and I can get the same work done on my new M1 MacBook Air 16GB without a hitch. Unless you are reading and writing to ram incredibly quickly or need a specific massive amount of data in memory like for rendering type tasks, running general applications beyond the 16GB point is totally fine, and the OS will figure out the rest.

I’m curious to know if it’d work for you, do you have access to an M1 to try out your workflow on? The max ram ‘issues’ seem to be way overblown.
What do you mean, these sorts of requests? If you mean deleting ownership data as is the case here - that's incredibly problematic and erodes trust in the site and you as a moderator.
Arizona has some of the largest lettuce farms in the nation. They consume extensive amounts of water. They can be moved to someplace with lots of rain like the Pacific northwest.
> This just pretty much does not happen without reason, and I think it is safe to say that if it did, you are probably a terrible person.

That's not a safe assumption at all.
Anytime you open an account at a financial institution for a savings, checking, or retirement account, they will get a credit report. Employers are increasingly requiring a credit report before handing out job offers. Every landlord is going to require a certain credit score before accepting your application.

You don't need worry about your credit if you use cash and store it in a coffee tin, couch surf, and work under the table.
She says that she remembers panicking and crying. I agree that those are both clear signs of non-consensual sex. Why does it take months and therapy for her to decode those clear signals? If Jon noticed her crying and panicking we would expect him to interpret that as a clear "I do not consent" signal.

The power Pretty holds here is pretty minor. He's helping her get into conferences and mentoring her. He "controlled where she was staying" in the sense that he made the reservation for their AirBnB. He's not confiscating her passport, she isn't destitute. She could've gotten another hotel, hostel, AirBnB. To be clear, I am not saying "She didn't get another room and so deserves to be raped" but I am saying that his "power" in this regard is pretty minor - just because someone is paying for your room that shouldn't make it impossible for you to say "No" to them.

A big part of why it is morally and legally wrong to have sex with children is that children aren't mature enough to make decisions about sex. Children cannot consent. You seem to be suggesting that a similar standard applies to this adult woman - she can't know if she consented to a sexual encounter or not. To me, that implies you are suggesting it should be illegal to have sex with this woman - after all, she apparently can't tell if she consented or not.
I switched my business account from HSBC to Revolut 2 years ago and haven’t looked back, they are far superior.
HSBC could not handle the fact that I had moved to Portugal, but still managed a UK registered company, insisting I come into a UK branch for trivial admin tasks such as change of address. Revolut is great for international business, FX rates are very good and payments are free (within £25 pm flat fee) even to countries like Serbia (were I have an office).
Agreed. I can't believe a woman would be naïve enough to share a room with a man. For crying out loud, if a man invites you to a room with him alone he wants to have sex. It's that simple.

I think boys already are told what is acceptable and what isn't. We got taught, in no uncertain terms, what would be considered rape or sexual assault. But I think people are afraid to mention the obvious when it comes to things like putting yourself in uncomfortable situations.

I predict this comment will be downvoted, so let me anticipate your objections. I had my bike stolen last week. I left it somewhere unlocked. This is considered my fault. Now you could say, no, it's not my fault, it's the bastard who stole it. And, sure, you'd be right. But the fact is I don't have a bike right now. Lock up your bike.
This.

As with many things in applied ML (although, importantly, not all), the question of "is x useful?" comes down to the scale at which you're operating.
The idea of someone being able to accuse someone else of a crime without evidence should terrify anyone who believes in freedom and democracy. Rape, murder, or any other crime.

Kudos for your project.
High shipping costs are effectively a tariff on bulk goods. It’s not particularly effective as shortages drive up prices.
It doesn't actually say that.

The article cited[0] is a review of analysis from ~1980 to 2005. If you restrict yourself to only analysis that don't count cases involving alcohol as false reports, the number drops to 2-3%.

The article also notes that false reports are usually different from real reports, important among these facts is that false reports are often attention seeking, and so are examples of what society thinks rape "should" look like (violent, anonymous) as opposed to what it often is (ambiguous and often by someone the victim knows and trusts). As such, the percent of false rape accusations where a particular individual is accused of the crime are likely even lower than this 2-3% number.

> but it’s much more important that the innocent are not wrongfully punished

This depends. It's much less morally cut and dry than you claim.

"how is the sjw religion worse in the name of good" years of violent protests? Millions... billions?... of damage done? People killed?

Or do you agree that peoples lives should be destroyed if they do something you disagree with? Mobs of people calling the friends, family, work places, etc of someone who dares do something you disagree with?

I personally know someone who works in a rescue... someone got a bug in their butt that she did something "wrong". She's been hounded for weeks by The Righteous who have the Holy Word that she did "wrong" - no matter the nuances about what happened.

You can ignore the violence, the mobs, the hounding and the overall shitty attitudes of the SJW Religous... but they are literally the modern day Crusaders who have The Holy Decree to destroy the Heathens.

You want to know how SJWs are worse in the name of good? Open your eyes and look at all the "worse" done on a daily basis. I could list dozens or hundreds of publicly available examples but if you can't ALREADY see them without me pointing them out?
No, pengaru's right. They're not mutually exclusive. For ex: making the site faster and more stable means I spend less time fixing and keeping things running and more time building new features.
Most people want an experience where the underlying OS and the application (the browser) interoperate seamlessly versus having to tame two desktop experiences. The primary application people think is slow is their browser by a wide margin so that's where we decided to focus as more native desktop apps become web apps. That focus lets us constrain the problems we get solve vs boiling the ocean with all of Windows.

Fwiw, we started by streaming Windows and pivoted away.

It's not clear to me that Shadow's business is sustainable. Windows licensing alone for virtualization across end-users if you buy from a reseller is $11/mo/user alone. I only know because we tried and became a reseller briefly. They also seem to use consumer GPUs that violate NVIDIA's licensing and agreements. Maybe they know something we don't.
The point is that many comments here are assuming that men lack the agency to keep themselves from assaulting people. That lets the men off the hook. To your example, if we blame the bear, we should blame the man, as well.

> Tried to buy a printer lately?

I did! I noticed B&H had the model I wanted in stock, but the store was closed over the weekend for a holiday. So I checked back right before the store opened and placed the order JUST as it JUST as ordering opened up again.

Not 5 minutes after I ordered the printer, the page went from "in stock" to "more on the way" lol. I received the printer a week later. Most places had it a month+ out.

Ugh, and that was easy compared to getting some computer parts right now.
