Ninety percent of those surveyed reported their employer offered less than 12 weeks of paternity leave, but almost two-thirds said that they planned to take less than half of that. Fifty-eight percent admitted that they were afraid that taking even six weeks of paternity leave would set their careers back.

This phrasing of these statistics makes no sense. If the employer offers a small amount of leave, and then people take a small amount of leave, and are worried that if they want to take more it will be harmful for their career, all of these statistics go together. The article is phrasing it as if instead 90% of employers do offer 12+ weeks of leave.
Didn't get a chance to see the result (due to hug of death), but I think it could be improved with a "clear" function in order to start from a blank canvas, as it's quite tedious to try and remove the existing guide picture.
Oh yeah I knew I was forgetting one, F#/Fable seems really popular among F# devs, but it doesn't seem like it's picking up any traction for FE devs that aren't already in that community.

Typescript encourages and is generally more conducive to a different style of programming. That's OK (in fact, clearly it's more than OK given its popularity) but it's not really the sort of thing I want to be writing. I think it's worse if you commit to something like fp-ts or the fantasyland stuff, personally.

Yes, just as it is almost mantra for startups, I agree that this is extremely important as well from my not so smooth experience so far. I think its also what makes DL kind of hard as well, experiments can take a long time to run depending on access to hardware.
Chess and Go are closed systems, the whole knowledge about how to play them well can in theory be derived just from a few basic rules. The same is not true for programming.

Plus, in theory Chess can be solved by exploring the whole solution space (which is finite, even though insanely large) and heuristics can make this practical by reasoning about which branches can probably be cut off. At that point, having more and more processing power and memory helps make the task feasible.

Not that I want to downplay these achievements, they were certainly very significant, but it's still entirely different from "solving programming" (whatever that means).
oh gosh, totally forgot to post the link, :facepalm: how stupid I am... Thank you for posting this.
It might be genetic and it might be anything else. It might just be dumb luck. We should expect this sort of thing to happen to people based on pure randomness alone. You should never expect to win the lottery. But you should expect _someone_ to win very often. If you were to win, it wouldn't be evidence that you somehow are luckier than others.
It's not real propaganda is it.

The state wants people to be vaccinated as quick as possible and a political party + Anon is dismissing it as "just a cold/5G/nanobots" and some people believe it.

It's more like propaganda against the state and a lot of Americans believe that misinformation.

At least other countries / citizens seem to have more common sense.
Just the other day I was having a nice little discussion with a stranger about drive exhaust in The Expanse universe. And it turns out that my initial position was likely very wrong. While there might be other SF boards where this kind of discussion is possible, it is much more convenient for me to join a few smaller communities of interest on reddit instead. I also like hearing about the latest developments on the RISC-V processor architecture. There actually is some discussion of this here on HN, but there's more over on /r/riscv.

I think you're responding particularly to the pointless "hi copple", first message?

I know some people find that annoying, but personally, I thin k that's fine. If I _am_ interruptible & I do respond to the initial ping it's nice to have some human interaction before the "down to business" part. Esp when we're all remote. If not, I just get the first & second message at the same time and respond to the query.

I think the author is also calling out "doing nothing" even for the meat & bones of the real request — e.g. in his example, even if the collegue did BLUF ("Live Client Issue: Strip integration missing from Xero") the issue still "went away" by itself without his attention if he left it 5min.

Take in consideration to not use floats for money. Use a `decimal` data format. I'd also advice against using javascript since it has problems dealing with big numbers. There are libraries of course to handle that.

I like this idea. It maps nicely to the concept of ‘andon cord’ applied to software engineering.

If an engineer has an issue, pull the cord to broadcast to someone on your team. Then your entire team. Then a sister team. Then eventually to everyone in your org.

Maybe even the initial message only gets sent out after a reasonable amount of minutes, in case the engineer wants to rescind the call for help.
I often face the same problem. Sometimes I just don’t really know what to look for or how to search, asking for help through email / IM often helps, because I need to explain the issue to someone else, and articulate what is expected. It just helps me rephrase my internal thought process, and take a step back.

The distinction is that, for example, a 'world foods' (aka 'ethnic'!) aisle in a supermarket categorises stuff efficiently that the local ethnic minority group (predominantly) may be interested in, while more widely consumed (or consumed by local ethnic majority group) foods are distributed elsewhere categorised more according to food type; compared to saying 'you are {local ethnic minority}ian so you are not allowed to purchase {local ethnic majority} foods', which would be discrimination.

Whether it applies to the example above though is I think more debatable.
This could be combined with the concept of reducing the 5 days work week to 4. Those that need paternity leave continue with 5 days after the leave until they have worked it off. In the end both would get the same amount of work days, and compared to today it would be the same(or better) as when there are paid paternity leave.

I wonder why Linus would think that though, because when one considers how big the kernel already is, and that in e.g. 10 years the vast majority will still be written in C, which will be just as unmaintainable as it is today if not more and that those old hands will be even older... the inescapable conclusion is that the Linux kernel will become unmaintainable period.

I'm skeptical that introducing a new language, whatever that may be, would help. In the short term it will make things harder, since maintainers have to juggle two languages and in the long term, as long as the new language does not displace the old one the situation would not improve.

> are you really that important?

This is a very self-centered view of the universe. No, you are not important nor you need to be.

I do my job, if I leave someone else is going to be hired to do it. That is how it works.

If you are "important" then you should be receiving a share of the profits, not a salary. A salary just means that you can be replaced, no matter how high it is.

I guess that it is a cultural thing, that many people have been convinced to work extra hours, to not take vacations, to slave away their lives for a sense of "self importance".

I get a fantastic salary, I enjoy my work, but I am not important. It is difficult to replace me, it took 2 years to get another person in my position. But, if I tomorrow leave, the company will manage. I bring value, but I am not the center of the universe. I bring value, but I am not irreplaceable. I bring value, but I have to take (by law) vacations and the company will continue running without me.

All jobs in a company bring value and the employees needs to be respected for that. It does not matter if you have a low-paid low-skilled job, you are still being paid because you bring value and you should be respected for it. And you should be able to go on vacations, because the goal of all this capitalist thing is to make our lives better, to be slaves we do not need capitalism. If in your society low-paid low-skill workers cannot take vacations, then you are failing at bringing well-being, health, and meaning to the members of your society. And for what? To produce another plastic shit that will be polluting the ocean in one month? To show more ads to people that cannot afford to buy more shit?

I guess that this is a difference in society values. But for me the question "are you really important" should be answered as "yes, because I have friends, family, children, hobbies, etc." and what you produce is only a small part of that value.
Not sure if it helps, but there are ads on apple mobile devices.

I'm sorry about the difficulty you are facing. As I said, it is a difficult business because you have to build up trust. Too many scammers out there. You should do everything to build up this trust and a good reputation. If you are based in Russia or some eastern country, it will be even harder. The banned account is harsh.
People forget that the original reason for the dealership model was entirely to protect consumers against manufacturers doing shit like this.

If it's a fundamental flaw like this (easily breakable part exposed directly to road debris), then that is a design failure by Tesla that they should repair for free under a "fit for purpose" consumer protection law.

It shouldn't require someone to find an alternative fix to avoid Tesla's own design failure.

> But in general the chances are much higher for a neutral/bad result in case of an external intervention for which our body was never put in contact before (not even in past generations as in the case of lipid nano particles).

What is this even saying? The virus is external to the body. The vaccines are external to the body as well. Study after study shows that the side-effects of the vaccine are lower than the issues caused by the disease.

> In general people hates to accept that not everyone reasons in the same way. Many societies aren't as trustworthy as you are to whatever decision is taken by their elites (being either for historical or cultural reasons). You need to accept that many would consider something in front of them poisonous until the contrary is proven (as opposed to more trustworthy people who sees everything safe until proven poisonous).

It's been proven non-poisonous hundreds of millions of times already. But yeah if your point is that there are many people who for cultural/societal/ignorance/etc. reasons act irrationally, the of course that's true. I just don't understand why you're pointing it out.

Hi. I've emailed you from an address following the same pattern.
"Reddit is Fun" is now called "Rif" because of trademarks.
To give a bit context, Elm main team has been defensive against forks. They are preventing development of features they don’t think worth to them. It’s not possible to publish packages with low-level access without Elm main team approval. The compiler even has built-in DRM about that. My point is more compilers is exactly what Elm needs to flourish. C has several compilers. Python has even”jython”. That doesn’t make a language community weaker.

Top video result from the last week - https://old.reddit.com/r/memes/comments/ogu570/the_traitor/

One bot with +70 that's somewhat visible, a couple just barely above the "load more comments" filter with +3.

#2 result - https://old.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/ofl4jt/i_...

No bots without clicking to load more comments.

Really though it's the fault of Reddit (or Twitter, ...) for deliberately disabling users' ability to right-click and download videos like normal. This is entirely a self-inflicted problem.
There isn't a single art that I'd call "karate." There are many styles, and they have many schools and lineages.

The style I studied was taught for free in the sensei's basement, and it was, to put it bluntly, a rather brutal art. Not many parents would be into it (all of the students were adults in my dojo).

Not to take anything away from Krav Maga and similar styles. There's just a lot of variation in what is called karate.
A quick Google search shows there are a lot of fake cards that you can download, and since the card is essentially a public document, I’m surprised more people are not just faking it. Maybe they are?

> When an employee vests equity then leaves it means that equity is "ineffective".

The actual motivation. Heaven forfend someone reap a benefit tomorrow from their work today... in a capitalist system.... where the investors (YCombinator et al) will be doing precisely that.

Remember- profits are an opinion! So whoever controls how capital gets reinvested controls the bonus. Or excuse me, “vesting”.
It’s not a fine, it’s a tax disguised as a fine. A protectionist tax France selectively imposes on a successful company from a successful industry based in a foreign country to prop up a dying industry from their own country.

Makes me wish companies had some balls and actually quit markets that treat them like this. But companies are business organizations, not political ones. The actual solution here is in politics: USA should respond symmetrically, by fining/taxing some large French conglomerate doing business in US.
I don't think it is unreasonable for society to decide that supporting new parents is important and for "unfair" things to benefit them. In the US, even extremely generous vacation policies only accumulate like five weeks annually. That's nowhere near enough time to be functional for acting as a new parent. This is the difference between equity and equality. A system where we all just get paid and there is zero support structure is one that leads to ruin for those at the fringes.
We may live to see the day, hopefully, (a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away) where language designers join the 1970's and learn about open standards.

Their mind will be blown, probably.
My two cents.... trying to profit via the business of artificial scarcity on an open source project that's going to end up a commoditization anyway, is kinda crappy. If they offered support or implementations or a specific customization for profit, I get it. That way the people doing work get rewarded and people don't end up paying for access to a feature because it's a carrot being used to get money.
I think that's part of the incentive. If the most valuable users actively devalue the platform, maybe people will move on.

Bret Victor was definitely an influence when I sought to combine the visual graph-patching paradigm (for audio programming) with a repl-like experience on a more-powerful-than usual functional backend [1].

He does talk about real-time visualization of outputs. IDEs for building trees is definitely not where we want to go.

However, there's an aspect in there that I'm utterly convinced about: direct manipulation of program objects! The ability to grab hold of program objects, tweak and move them and see the response, almost like you had some cord or lever in hand that connects to the program, feels amazing. To me, it's the most amazing aspect of Sutherland's super early work [2]. Hancock's dissertation also deals with some of these things [3].

As you observed, we struggle with generalizing such direct manipulation. Especially the composition and abstraction of such components. That's the difference between a IDE to draw trees and a magic medium between thought and computing. Will we some day have the latter? I do not know.

What about dinosaur bones? We’re talking tens of millions of years or more for them.
Well.. I suppose that's a matter of perspective, but if that's such a recent change then fair enough!

What's the purpose of it? Does it have to be recorded & kept (in case police want to ask 'who bought x' or 'what did y buy' or something?) or is it just to check that the purchaser matches the billing details (fraud prevention?)?
My thought as well. I studied Uechi-ryu (sister style to Goju-ryu), and we did lots of grappling. It seems to be less emphasized in other karate styles I'm familiar with (I'm happy to be proven wrong here).

> there are billions of people that will never have access to the vaccines

False. Pfizer alone will manufacture 2.5 billion doses this year, 3 billion next year. Considering EU/US already at 50-60% vacicnated, there are a lot of doses for the rest of the world.

Moderna will likely have similar production. The other simpler ones even more.
