> I, personally, advocate for COMPASSION

Sadly this is getting rarer every day. Nobody wants to show anybody else compassion, and people of every background are guilty of this.
So your explanations for why men might have more sexual relationships than women on average is flawed, none of those reasons would change the averages. Imagine if you had 5 men and 5 women, where 1 man had a sexual relationship with all 5 women and the other 4 men had no sexual relationships. The average number of sexual relationships for women would be 1, because each has a sexual relationship with the one man. The average for the men is : (5 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0)/5 = 1 ! So whether or not there is monogomy, or different patterns of behavior, the average remains the same. The only way the two numbers could be different is if you included same-sex relationships, or if there were more men than women (or vice versa).
Some of my best friends are women and have been there for me in ways that my other guy friends certainly haven't during bouts of loneliness during times of lockdowns.

But perhaps it is different when it comes to partners.
Phoning is my least favorite thing (well, except for in-person visits), but I also want a human on the other end of the line when I call. If I'm calling, it means I couldn't get the website to do the right thing for me.
D(?)A(?)O – Decentralization and Autonomy in “DAOs”
Keep in mind this is boutique hardware with very low volume, the device has a mechanical keyboard, and the case is milled and anodized aluminum. We are 3 people in the shop plus a network of freelancers. But unlike Apple, we can make open hardware and happily give you full control over the device, and you can communicate directly with us. This is a totally different scenario.

The CPU/RAM module is not the price defining aspect here, and we're ready for faster chips when they come out. The idea is you can upgrade for a fraction of the price of buying a new device.
Which means that a robot is something that has a property similar to the property of 'turing completeness' in computers.
Edited for clarity.

>Are they actually lower performing or is this an effect of bias?

This is why these programs in early grades are eliminated - they absolutely were based on bias and external factors. Yes, children with less resources do worse. That was the problem. Students with less access would be tracked low, thereby ensuring they had access to even fewer resources (which were diverted to high performers and TAG classes).

>Instead, you're saying that it's more helpful to just not know who's struggling and that somehow creates more equality.

I didn't explain it well. They still track student ability for interventions, they don't group solely by ability. When they did the latter of those two, the have's had even more and the have-nots had even less.
Likely related to Dogecoin's rise (Reddit also had a bad outage during GME's rise.)
And it will be the one tool that handles everything poorly. Linting (eslint) and testing (jest) are solved problems, there's no way I'll migrate to Rome for these. They should focus on bundling which is the current pain point (although my bet is more on esbuild).
I agree. How do you propose measuring it if not using the 50/50 metric? Are we already at the point of equal opportunity? If not, why?
> what we have right now in the sexual marketplace echoes what we have in the economy...

It’s an economy of sorts (age, looks, height), but it also follows the financial security aspect. Inequality creates a class of people that hoard desirable traits

> When social norms dictated that you must be married to have sex, every woman and man paired off and got to have sex, however low quality and in however unhappy of a marriage

Might we see a return to conservative values here?
Sam Lavigne did a similar project in 2017, generating targeted video ads on twitter.

Nice! Congrats on the launch from your friends @ Clay
I didn't know there was this level of detail in FB ads, I'll have to start targeting more specific audiences for my ads then. Very useful info.
>It becomes toxic when it blames women for its problems.
Feminism is all for men talking about their issues. It practically begs them to.

Gotcha, it wants them to talk about their issues, as long as they don't say anything unapproved. Why would any man want to go along with that, again?
If it only would also backup attached USB sticks.
That's a cap (and supply restriction), not redistribution.

> the gatekeepers of the bedroom

There is no way this can be true. Sex takes two consenting people; there is no "gate" to be unequally "kept" because both parties have autonomy.

Trying to shift to "social scales" to escape the central role of autonomy is a nifty trick. But casting individual bedroom decisions as a matter of social equality is to presume a degree of entitlement in the bedroom. After all, we're entitled to be treated equally, right?

By governments? Yes. By our managers at work? Yes. By those who we desire? No, not at all.
I'm not sure who this is supposed to appeal to. At first glance it feels like the 0.000001% of the population who exclusively consume Twitter ragebait. You're writing spiteful, angry creeds, buying entire domain names and angrily announcing an OSS project because a small internet products company doesn't want politics at their workplace. Maybe it's time to log off, gain a sense of proportionality and understand what is truly important in life beyond petty internet beefs and outrage culture.

This is why I use a 12V-to-5V USB charging adapter in my 2019 model year car that absolutely has usb ports and supports android auto / carplay. I have connected it with bluetooth but only for calls and audio, no contacts / call history / etc. I trust apple enough to not screw that last part up and let my car get my contacts.
Facebook is terrible.

However, Signal has its own failings as well. From what I understand, it:

* Refuses to federate.

* Hostile to independent clients.

* Run as a one-man show.

That's not Facebook-bad, but it's sad that Signal is consistently exhibiting this attitude, meaning that it can't be a good basis for personal instant messaging going into the future.
Not at all, HN is still up.
This proposal seems to me like it's centered around a false dichotomy:

- Acknowledge the presence of natural talent, put naturally talented kids into advanced levels of math, and create inequity.

- Denounce the belief in natural talent, keep all kids at one level of learning, and help resolve inequity issues.

It doesn't seem to leave any space for kids who are just more interested in math or more dedicated to their pursuit of mastering it, as well as kids who have little to no interest in math and are not as dedicated to their pursuit of mastering it. I can't see the potential gains of this proposal outweighing the results of stifling the ability of many kids to explore the areas of academia that they're interested in. Isn't that one of the most beneficial aspects of the learning experience?
So, feminism's answer to the problems men face is completely disconnected with men's own experiences and feelings.

Color me surprised.
They will. Everybody said I was crazy for using "keygen" as my business name and that I would never rank well -- lo and behold, I'm now #2 for the term only behind Wikipedia. Owning a common word/name just takes hard work and some time.
Well that's exactly it. In my area, inventory is scarce because of an influx of people who are used to paying an arm and a leg to live. In certain counties, prices are up 20-30% simply due to demand. Speaking with my own realtor, competition bidding is very common now. Rarely do you see a house go for asking or below asking.
This! Super helpful. Thanks! I have worked with the command line for 20+ years, still I’ve learnt a ton. Now if this could be compiled on one or two pages in small print, it would make an excellent cheat sheet!
This is a charity auction, a common way for charities to get donations. The purchase can make sense for the buyer because they get the good will of the donation, and they get an NFT potentially they could resell later that could be valuable because it is saving lives. The only thing the NFT directly does is mathematically prove to some future buyer that this NFT is the original and not a forgery. And it makes sense for Noora because of all the hype and money being spent on NFTs. If they were auctioning off a signed physical binder of the same report it would probably sell for a lot less even though it is effectively the same thing.
The Reform isn't cheap, but it does come with other things that Macbook Air doesn't have (and never will):

- promise of drop-in replacement SoC boards in the future.

- open specifications.

- batteries are trivially user-replaceable.

- mechanical keys.

- the option for a trackball as a pointing device.

- a high-quality manual.

Are those worth the tradeoffs? Maybe; clearly they are for some people.
This is an opinion, not a fact.
That doesn't work out as well as it sounds. Unsuprisingly, the amount of women willing to have sex with strangers for money is relatively low. Studies have shown that legalizing prostitution increases the rate of human trafficking to meet the greater demand.

Some degree of it has to just be the grown resentment of established banking. So this is a view of a certain cohort of sentiment, not necessarily exclusive to cryptocurrencies and all that.

These days a bank account will cost you money. Any savings account available to most people offers interest rates at or below inflation, if they're not 0% and charge fees (making those ones functionally offering negative interest). Even more glaring is being charged fees for not having a high enough balance in your account.

When you're young and poor and you look to a bank to help you grow out of that state, and you're offered the above, you can understand why it would appear the game is just plain broken. And that's just talking private bank accounts, not the larger economic sphere.

To me, it's no wonder that people are trying out different things, even if they don't work. It's better than just accepting the thing that's already not working for you.
Same here with my '93 Saab. I replaced the smart (for its time) HVAC control system with an Arduino running software I wrote, but otherwise it's bone stock.

I'd love an electric too, but the way I figure it, continuing to use a fairly efficient vehicle that already exists is probably better for the environment than buying something new anyway. It takes a lot of resources and material to build a car.

You are making some pretty wild misrepresentations of reality: https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2020/07/07/a-centu...

The closest thing I can find to your interpretation is that women of color are less probable to adopt the term "feminist" because they are less probable to feel the movement has done enough for them.

I do not know who has convinced you of an alternative definition of the word, but feminism means "believing in equal treatment / equal opportunity / etc".
Yeah, but the discussion was about referrals. Referrals are for getting your foot in the door. You don't generally need them for FAANG. You just need a half decent CV.

The hard part is passing the interviews, but referrals don't help with that, from what I know.
Interesting, this seems different than other reddit outages I remember. Many of those seemed to only effect the app or the new interface but old.reddit.com continued to work. This seems to be everything offline, and it's already getting close to an hour totally down.

As someone else pointed out, personal attributes are prohibited from ads.

My feeling is, communicating a compelling data collection story, even strictly positivist things like how much data is collected, let alone normative ones like we should collect less data or prohibit collecting it - you're not going to tell that story with some neat hack inside the system.
I'm unsure of why you shared this? Normal people are unlikely to have a plate freezer at home, which this seems to require in order to make these at home. And I'm not sure how many people keep minced fish meat around at home anyways.
Marxism-Leninism is a strict subset of Marxism. The Marxian ideas about stages of societal development for example have no bearing about whether you should focus on light or heavy industries.

If you're talking about the USSR, there was actually some dissension after the death of Lenin on whether light industry or heavy industry should be focused on. Lenin wanted to focus especially on neither, with his NEP that would create a temporary market economy to figure that out on it's own.

Eventually, the decision was taken to focus on heavy industry. The decisive arguments for a focus on heavy industry had nothing to do with Marxian economics - those arguments went either way. The main determinant of the Soviet focus on heavy industry was the failure of Stalin to obtain security assurances from Western Europe, leading to a focus on heavy industry for military purposes.

At least in the 20s this was a solid move, because Soviet heavy industry saved tens of millions of lives by stalling the Nazi offensive, whose plan was to kill 50% of the Soviet population (something very bad).

After the end of WW2 however, it was pointless in retrospect to continue the focus on heavy industry. But the Soviet Union did not really calculate the geopolitcal impact of nuclear weapons and built a military that could rival NATO, and this required a lot of heavy industry.

Pretty much, Marxism had nothing to do with Soviet investment in heavy industry. The main reason was to feed the Soviet war machine, from the very beginning.

If that’s the only reason this is interesting, we’re talking about digital fashion. It’s isomorphic to a celebrity endorsing a product.

“Is this person an expert in using this product? No? But it’s selling like hotcakes because this person is a celebrity, and people find them interesting almost solely because other people find them interesting.”

So taking a donation and wrapping it in an NFT feels like taking a product and getting a celebrity to endorse it. The NFT itself really adds nothing to the idea of donating to this charity.
Its a idea and product by a chinese guy

China is as communist as north korea is democratic republic.

Just because they call themselves something it doesnt mean they are it.
Agreed. It definitely helped me be more sympathetic to a wider variety of single men.

All of us can do better (in the article's case, that includes single men who are romantically frustrated) and _almost_ all of also us deserve some sympathy. I thought the article did a great job of generously showing the overlap between the two.

Showing that intersection — imperfect people with whom you can still sympathize — is key to being helpful. And overcoming imperfections is so much easier when you have help and a listening ear. I know plenty of young men who could use someone to talk to about this.
Thanks for the feedback, will definitely add this to the site.
No I think collecting the data is much more the actual goal and the tax is a flimsy pretext.
Sure, I should have said that humans fail to live up to the lofty standards that people expect of their idols. But "people are stupid" rolls off the toungue, as it were
> the existence of so many "incels"

Curious, are there are more of these now than in the past?

I suspect there were more decades ago because of more cultural taboos about premarital relationships. What's different now? That these folks are angry about it?
One thing about the post in its entirety, not just the content, that really stood out to me was that there was a commenter "kayla" who behaved exactly in the manner that the author outlined when talking about the "feminist" and "MRA" subgroups. They immediately jumped onto the aggressor's bandwagon, saying that the lowercase-i incels were simply too lazy to fix their problems even though extremely-generalized and dismissive solutions (prostitutes, therapy) existed.

The author tried to open a discussion about their position with an incredibly well-thought out response, and all "kayla" could do was respond to their own post afterwards about having sympathy for the users of the "dead berdoom" board on Reddit but still behaving in the same manner that the author outlined (i.e., just fix your problem you lazy bum).

It's very troubling that the type of person described by the author immediately arrives on site and starts their spiel.
Signal hitting hard as always. I wonder if they are trying to get people to stop talking about their cryptocurrency hiccup.

I don't trust the car to get it right, but I do trust apple to get it right.

Sure, fine, they contribute to open source, but that does not mean they are aligned with human flourishing.
Does backblaze ever power cycle the drives (either on a schedule or due to planned/unforeseen circumstances)?

If so, it would be interesting to know how many drives failed on the day of a power cycle vs days with no power cycle.

I know other providers have found that "power cycle days" can be 100x more deadly for drives than "non-power-cycle days". It can have a massive impact when estimating data loss probabilities - since unforseen power cycle days tend to impact more than one drive at a time...

The HN hatred of crypto is off the charts. I thought startup developers were open to change and innovation. Not so. And few have actually done any deep research into it.

As a developer working in the Crypto startup space. I see the writing on the wall. This is a once in a lifetime tail-event with massive disruption across industries. Everything changes.

And, I will not post the myriad examples of disruption happening now. Do your own research. Open your mind.
I agree. But porn directly targets sexual behavior and response. It's the sugar soda to obesity.

But to singly focus on it would also be a mistake.
Ideally, we wouldn’t have corporate taxes. They’re well-intentioned as a tax on the wealthy, but it would make much more sense to just tax the people who are wealthy! Tax them more than we do today, and get rid of carve-outs like Capital Gains.
I didn't suggest she was "doing so well with this vision". If anything, I was pointing out that it'd be hard to know if the company would be "doing well" with her vision, given the limited time window.

It was a short stint, and my memory is dull, so I can't remember which products were launched under her watch, but that's the wrong measure in first place (indeed, this was the company from which the Peanut Butter Manifesto sprang). There's really not a lot of question about her changing a lot of things at the company though. I found this article talking about the impact she had after the first four months: https://www.reuters.com/article/stocksAndSharesNews/idUKLNE5...
I think an important thing is also using companies as foreign tools. The nsa would hate to see Google or Facebook broken up and supplanted everywhere by local companies. Or, worse, supplanted by a equally large Chinese monopoly.
That's a function of massive income inequality across countries, though. Fix that, and the incentive for trafficking disappears.
Actively not enjoying single life is a reasonable state of being. Not desirable, but not a mental health issue.

Being measurably happier with a partner in your life is a positive outcome, indeed is one we should all strive for (or why bother)

With respect to what measure? Spread of disinformation? Leaks of personal data? Acting politically? Curtailing free speech? It is kind of impossible to say without knowing your yardstick

I like the analog of the sliding puzzle because also if you remove one more piece it will be even easier to solve. Also if you remove too many pieces then you’re not actually getting meaningful work done.
I agree with you wholeheartedly, but there's a small problem here (and it's not just in the West) -- people dismiss these people, call them names, and put a dark label on them.

And yet, quite often they need help. Changing one's personality, mastering new skills, etc etc. are not small nor easy steps. And some people may not even be capable of doing them by themselves. So what do they do? They seek out people and go public with their frustration... and they come across two groups: Group A, who call them names and shun them out, and Group B, who claim they understand them and talk with them.... all while telling them things like "Look, it's not your fault, man." "They're all whores", etc. What do you think happens next?

What I am trying to say is, some empathy and understanding would go a long way. I get that some people don't want to help themselves and are beyond saving, but there are many others who just need a small push to improve themselves.

I certainly know two people who would watch that show.
> That just indicates that the value of a modular component isn’t high enough to make it worth building for now.

This is the dilemma. The value is low _now_ because Apple bought the vendor, rather than purchasing from a vendor. In a healthy marketplace, Apple's scale would fund development of technology that other people could buy and run with. Instead, the market "developed" touch ID and Apple got to keep everyone else from using it for the low, low price of $365mm.
I think the issue is how extreme the statement "It’s arguable she’s the only reason I’m able to be happy" is. I think there is nothing necessarily wrong with that if you find a partner who is comfortable with providing this author's needs. In my mind though that statement signals a codependent relationship which are generally not seen to be a great thing. I'm not saying they are in a codependent relationship as an FYI, but it sounds like something people in that type of relationship would say. Like can the person not be happy at all if they were not in a relationship? Can they not find satisfaction in their job, hobbies, volunteer work, etc? yes it might not be fulfilling as being in a relationship, but to have a binary happy / not happy state based only on being in a relationship seems extreme. This is just going based on how the author worded it. Maybe a better way to have written their statement would be "less happy".
