If you're not able to quickly answer it, I'd put it where you feel like you'd first look for it (where it feels natural) and move on - don't try to optimize too early. The correct answer is going to depend heavily on what your app is doing, how it's structured, etc, so providing a good answer from an HN comment is going to be really hard. It's ok to be "wrong", just make sure you're consistently wrong so when you need to refactor it's not so bad. Eventually the answer will become clear...and if it never does, you probably made the right choice and saved a lot of time :)

Yes, this is a bug. Thanks for reporting it to the issue tracker.

Possibly violating HN site guidelines here, but I wanted to add a civilly-toned comment to thank you for illuminating one area where our mental models had diverged on this topic.
You need not cater to faulty perception. You should improve it or, if that's not possible, design with it in mind.

My discontent with this article is more fundamental.

> If our perception of the world is more important than the world itself, then we can create immense value by simply modifying perception.

When I think of value creation I think of how fertilizer increased food output per plot and time or how mechanical looms did the same with textiles and weavers. Same with chemistry, medicine, etc ("hard value").

Necessarily statements that encourage making money without actually touching the real world catch me the wrong way.

You can lose yourself in a web of virtual improvements based on (fallible) human perception without ever touching the real economy. There are myriad of those soft value propositions and the market rewards them.

But I fear they keep society from progressing to the next level of economic sophistication; that in which all the window dressing takes the back seat and the sum of scientific/technological achievement is widely appreciated at full scale.

Or we'll drown in a sea of perceptively optimized but inferior consumption garbage. Our choice.

> It isn't their duty to draw the line immediately, but they will need to draw a line.

Ok, so then there is no problem with this decision. Edge cases can be handled when they come up, and there isn't a problem with the fact that this decision did not address every single possible circumstance.

Best Notes App Out There
What is your favorite notes app/service? And why? I am using Viewert, but wonder if there are better offerings out there.
I sure am! I wish it was more "done" however, right now it's pretty raw.
> It's less about one term being "privileged" (I must confess that word seems slightly unclear to me in this context) over another and more about the ease of treating people the way they would like, with no real downsides that I can see.

Sorry for any confusion.

By privileged, I simply mean that one's gender identity instead of biological sex should govern pronoun usage.

> 2. Is definitely the counter argument I would use - if people have preferred pronouns then what is the ethical argument for ignoring those and using words that would cause them harm? If nothing else it seems to me to come down to basic decency and respect for others.

I mean I guess that is part of the reason that pronoun usage is a controversial topic, right? Why are people uncomfortable with using others' desired pronouns? It may be deeply rooted beliefs or other identitarian characteristics (religious or political convictions for example) that could cause someone psychological harm if they use preferred pronouns instead of biological sex.

In areas where legal agency is at issue—in children, for example—use of pronouns could potentially elide complex challenges and lead to irreversible physical changes that don't correspond with later preference (i.e., sex reassignment surgery or puberty blockers may have permanent effects even if the child decides later that it was a bad idea).

Now I don't know that these are particularly good arguments, but they are two ideas that I've seen online or that arise from applying a subjective-experience argument to other identity characteristics.
> How could anyone contradict an individual who states their own gender - on what grounds can you claim to know how someone feels about themselves better than they themself do?

Because people lie about themselves all the time. Especially teenagers. We don't take every claim made by teenagers about their feeling as true on face value. We know they're practicing how to deceive people as part of growing up.
There are two types of iPhone users. Fanboys and those thinking of moving to Android.
Ok I promise. My last topics I posted on were about this, a security blog post, the news, Simone Biles and accents. I do actually talk about lots of topics on HN but I tend to get drawn into political discussions which are replied to a lot more. Also it's hard for me not to respond when someone calls me a bigot, etc. I'm definitely not on HN just to troll about politics. I really think it's unfair to say I'm on HN to "battle" anyone. I don't think my comments here have been particularly confrontational?

"There are more blind people than trans people. There are more people with Alzheimer's than trans people. There are more people in the US who have lost a limb than trans people."

There are more white people than black people in the US. More Christian people than Jewish people. More able-bodied people than disabled people. More descendants of immigrants than Native Americans.

That's what makes all these people minorities.
It’s not a basic question at all. If you look at the most innovative games of that era, they all found some way to not resort to O(N^2) polygon sorting. A bit before Crash came out ID Software showed that spatial data structures like BSP trees could help a lot; we were influenced by that.
Are you saying going bigger is p-packing, or shopping for other warehouses is p-hacking?

Either way, I don't really care. p-packing implies we are measuring phenomina that is stable / replicated. But that is decidedly not the point of even local campaigns: the goal would be to convince people and change hearts and minds.

Never was the purpose to learn the true opinions of the early 20th century lower class American worker and all the learned helplessness our exploitative system has wrought.

In more mathematical terms, not only does this "measuring" change then nature of the thing being measured, but the state space / phase space is decidedly not ergodic.

Tangent: why is AR so attractive to people?

Or, why is the idea of AR so attractive to people? We haven't seen much AR yet. Magic Leap was faking it. The Microsoft Hololens had some great demos, but was too expensive and not very useful. Google Glass was somewhat useful but socially unacceptable. Pokémon GO was wildly successful but googles are still too expensive for it.

OK, so you can annotate the world. Now what? Games? Customer relationship management? Equipment maintenance guides? Doordash picking guidance?

I have the horrible feeling that most people who wear AR goggles will be wearing them because their employer told them to. The goggles tell them what to do.

(As usual, see "Manna" and "Hyperreality").
This is really the chief danger here - it's the ability to retroactively label anything as predatory. You don't actually have to be guilty; in fact, what's perhaps the most dangerous aspect is that you don't have to have even been a party to the matter, innocent or not. Someone who just plain doesn't like you can levy an accusation, and even if you've literally never interacted with them in your life, you're guilty. I've seen it happen firsthand.

To quote Cardinal Richelieu, "If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him."

This behavior really has nothing to do with the nature of the crime at hand; it's been used to discriminate against people by race, by gender, by interest, by religion - by just about anything. Giving human beings the ability to arbitrarily punish other humans, without recourse, is obscenely dangerous.
> Did you know him? Did you ever even see him once?

We're going to need to rewrite an awful lot of history if our standards for judging people are "knowing them and seeing them even once"
Not complaining, but the last time I was in Costa Rica in the shopping mall the guards were carrying huge shotguns and a few months before that a colleague escaped a kidnapping tentative with car chases and automatic gunfire. other colleagues were taking dinner in a restaurant when a gang fight left several people in that restaurant dead and the company had to covertly extract my colleagues from the country because as eye witnesses they were in danger to be executed. This was all in San Jose, a few years ago.
Side request: if it doesn't bother you too much I would prefer you refer to trans women with penises as trans women with penises rather than as "intact" trans women. Such phrasing suggests that trans women without penises are damaged.

> Without any stats for transwomen in particular, human males are more likely to be rapists, and an intact transwoman is closer to a man than a ciswoman is, no?

This argument is rather tangential. Is there any empirical evidence that trans women are more likely to sexually assault people than cis women? Is the median trans woman more likely to sexually assault people than cis women who have been convicted of sexual assault, or who have already committed sexual assault in the prison?

> MyHypatia literally made the same point you're making in their original comment.

Specifically, they said that putting trans women in women's prisons would be imposing the threat of rape on cis women. After I pointed out that cis women already rape other cis women in women's prisons, they clarified that it was actually impregnation they were really worried about introducing, not rape as such. I don't think my criticism of this concern has been addressed.
It's not that bad words don't matter, it's that people don't care nowhere as much as in the US. You can say shit and fuck (merde, nique) in, say, a business meeting without getting fired, it's just that it's usually not a good idea.
One could argue that this historic wealth creation also coincided with a high degree of Judeo-Christian religiosity. We're yet to see if the same success can be replicated under an equally individualistic culture, but one without a unified moral fabric via religion. And I say this as an Asian who was raised a Hindu and is now an atheist.
Vanbellinghen is not saying Hubbard used steroids. Physical differences or biological advantages between competitors aren't ever considered reasons to exclude a competitor. People who are gifted with strong and healthy bodies can become world class competitors with enough training and dedication. A swimmer isn't disqualified for being unusually tall, a sprinter unusually lean, a gymnast petite, etc.

Imagine a woman born with only one arm complaining that Vanbellinghen had an insurmountable natural advantage in weight lifting. The one armed woman would be correct. There is a Special Olympics where disabled people can compete and it would be incredibly unfair for fully-abled competitors to enter the Special Olympics. Analogously there is an Olympic division where Hubbard could fairly compete (the men's) and another division where Hubbard has an unfair advantage (the women's).

If Hubbard is a woman then Hubbard has a distinct natural advantage. To wit, Hubbard was born and developed physiologically as a man. Hubbard didn't attain this advantage unfairly by using steroids. We don't disqualify any other competitor because of the physiological advantages of their natural bodies. Why should Hubbard be disqualified? The only coherent argument is that Hubbard is not actually a woman and should compete in the men's division. This is a denial of Hubbard's identity.

I think your points are true if we consider the last 2000 years but the article basically points out on why the transformation happened before that time(12000 years ago). If we consider hunters and foragers at that time, the oppression on creativity might not work and in my opinion is more free and real(no monetary benefit). At that time only thing they might have cared is, whether there is enough food for themselves and their families. Sure, there might be differences in physical strengths a little bit, but I don't think that would be such a big offset.
IP laws were created to encourage innovation, but have perverted to the point where now they are mostly used by people hoping to suppress it or seek rent from others' work.

Patent duration should be shortened to 10 years or less.

Yes, the problem is not school funding but school segregation. It takes more than money to help high needs students, it takes attention and support. If your child needs attention and support and they go to a school where the majority of their peers have the same needs, none of them will get it.
The concepts of "man" and "woman" are already doing a lot of work in language, society, law, etc. Redefining those terms would cause/is causing a lot of upheaval.

Think of the concepts of "citizen", "resident", "immigrant", "ex-pat", "DREAMer", etc - all terms related to where someone lives and what set of laws applies to them. Regardless of how the person feels, the label isn't just for their own sake. Someone can be a citizen and an immigrant if they are naturalized, saying someone is a resident implies (but not definitely) that they are not a citizen, ex-pats are assumed to be temporarily in the place where they reside.

Labelling trans women as women is a lossy translation that ignores a lot of societal edge cases.

I don't know if it's related to the way my browser implements it, but with <datalist> once I've picked an item it's then the only one that appears if I click again on the arrow to list the options. That's not the case with <select>, which _always_ lists all available choices regardless of the one currently selected.

I can see this being confusing, and someone wondering where all the options went. They come back if you click to edit and then manually delete the text, but not everyone will think of it.

The auto-complete feature is nice and <datalist> supports custom values that aren't in the preset list, but if you have a specific list of options and only want to allow those then it seems like <select> would be more appropriate.

There are concerns about erroneous transitions. There also substanctial factions who loudly proclaim their preference that trans people (and homosexual) do not exist, and openly justify their claims with centuries-old supernatural myths.
> Interestingly enough, there's not much animosity toward trans-men.

One of the interesting things about spending the last few years studying Western European post-Roman history has been the discovery that, in the West, there has historically been relatively little resistance to AFAB folks "presenting" (speaking of the interpretation at the time--the dichotomy between "presenting" and "being" is one I am thoroughly not qualified to negotiate) as male unless tied into homophobia. There are historical examples of folks who outwardly identify as women taking on male roles in monastic life, and it's often portrayed as a good and pious thing.

The reverse, it seems, is generally not true, though not exclusively so. I've read of, but don't have offhand, accounts of Church investigation into "male nuns" that ruled that the erstwhile offender, a male who had suffered prepubescent genital damage, had committed no crime being raised by a particular convent as a woman. But cases going the other way round are much more common.

In terms of today's relations, however, my intuition is that the fear regarding transwomen is that it's largely a performative flavor of misogyny and the fear of those of the "superior" set somehow damaging all men, much as the performative flavor of homophobia does the same with regards to gay men but shockingly much rarely with regards to bisexual or homosexual women. But, of course, that is just an intuition.
Germany has more draconic laws than the US in this situation, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

"Under German law, the maximum term for one count of aggravated tax evasion is 10 years. If an accused is convicted of more than one count, the court can increase the maximum to 15 years."

The US is 5 years for each count, half of Germany's.

Macafee was under accused of multiple crimes, which added up to the headline figure of 30 years.

If he had been German it would have 60 years for those same multiple crimes.
I think 321 lets you have as many good/bad/ok candidates as you like. The thing it doesn't allow is marking a candidate as, say, both good and bad at the same time. (I'm not an expert though, I just heard about 321 yesterday, and my source of knowledge is the most plausible-looking google search result.)

I agree that a likelihood of higher-than-normal percentage of spoiled ballots is a potential problem with IRV, at least with mail-in or in-person paper ballots. Voting machines shouldn't have a problem with it.

Approval is about as simple as it gets. In order to spoil the ballot you'd have to do something pretty strange like tear the ballot in half. Or with mail-in ballots, the usual things like not signing the envelope (assuming that's required in your state) or mailing it too late to arrive on time.

I don't see ballot spoiling as necessarily a show-stopper for using RCV on its own, but there are other compelling reasons not to use it (such as failing monotonicity).
> We have pressing needs now--for example, reducing the influence of money in American politics.

Is this a higher priority than reducing political tension/violence?

Or is it worth increasing the likelihood of political tension/violence by eliminating the filibuster?

> The Senate should be made more democratic now. If the Senate flips in the future due to the will of the people, we will blow up that bridge when we get to it.

This seems short-sighted. What does it even mean? How would it solve any problems if the opposition could undo the work in a matter of a few years?
No.

In order for this to be "perverted as a way to grow DRM", it would need some other main function.

Define "gender reassignment surgery", please.

Are we talking about a top operation, or a bottom one? Do mastectomies count as gender reassignment, or only if genitals are involved?

Because if you include top surgery, then https://wng.org/roundups/state-mandates-payment-for-children... says that where I live in California it is legal, and insurance must pay for it.
I am not British, so I can't quite comment as well on the media landscape there, but I see tons of articles about transgender issues, with lots of commentary by trans people, in mainstream American media. A few simple examples:

1. https://www.newsweek.com/trans-air-force-officer-trump-ban-1...

2. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/opinion/transgender...

3. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/trangende...

And your last paragraph about claiming people are debating about forcing certain people to, as you put it, "again and again defend their own existence", is what I find so frustrating, because this is absolutely NOT what is going on in this instance. Yes, there are a tons of examples where this DOES happen, but lumping all honest debate about difficult problems (say, how does one determine if someone is eligible to compete in women's-only sports) as "defending your own existence" is just silencing all views that don't 100% agree with you.
A legit concern. Basically everything that connects directly to the cache controllers has to get CCA right. Coherent GPUs are the big, complicated one.

Intel had an SGX bug where the GPU could access the last 16 bytes of every 64 byte cache line. If you need the GPU enabled, you have no choice but to design your enclave to only use the first 48 bytes of each cache line. Fortunately if you don't need the GPU, whether or not the GPU is enabled (among other things) is measured and included in the attestation quote, so clients can simply choose to refuse to talk to servers with the GPU enabled...
Well, that military won't pay itself...
