> So, not severely, then?

Probably could have phrased it better. The military culture is very different than civilian culture, jokes and turns of phrase that would be completely unacceptable in the civilian world are common, and the tolerance for them is higher. It's very much like the difference between working an office job, and going out to a seedy bar; different culture, different expectations and rules.

But as for what I said, there was a lot of borderline sexual harassment (and much of it that I witnessed not involving females at all) that went unreported. But when something was reported, it stayed at lower levels most times, and involved squad and platoon level justice, which is very, very severe. Like more severe than is allowed under the UCMJ.
The last multicore prerequisite will land with 4.13 in September. My understanding is that the next release after that due in Q1 of 2022 will have multicore support.
AFAIK they put a massive order with TSMC and paid upfront to get all the production of their new line for a while, but I haven't seen anything indicating that Apple owns the machines. At least in this case: they did own the production lines in other cases, such as screens at some point IIRC.
Yet they are still cleaner than ICE vehicles.

> I see a lot of Chinese experts rationalize recent moves by saying it's all foreshadowed in CCP's public policy goals and so on. If that was the case, I would expect at least domestic investors to have priced-in the impact of the recent changes well ahead of time.

That's assuming domestic investors were paying attention to public policy goals (probably not true for many small-time speculators) and able to predict which companies would run afoul of regulations (hard even for well-informed institutional investors). The second draft of the new personal information protection law has penalties up to 5% of revenue in severe cases https://www.cods.org.cn/c/2021-06-24/14270.html (Article 65) but once such a fine is issued for the first time (assuming this part makes it into the final law) I bet the company in question will have its stock price tank, even though the possibility of regulatory action is public knowledge. The hard part is knowing if and when it'll happen.
I really don't think the MOBA comment works for Dota 2. Its not really about the characters, its about the map, position, and timing (itemization + push timing). The characters are important, but frequently people pick meta characters and get bopped. This wouldn't be an issue if dota had new people playing the game, but I want to say that dota is at this point filled with people who have been playing for a long time. So, you'll see people who at low levels just destroy people with characters that are supposed to be bad because they just know where to stand and abuse the map or creep aggro. Its wild.

Just as a specific example. If you take two teams of equal MMR and one had all the character counters so they "should" win. If the team with the better characters doesn't know how to pull the safelane, they will just straight up lose. Full stop. They will get gold starved and unless the other team throws (which is very common lol) they should lose.

Also, losing like this in dota is anti-fun. Its really not a good time for like anybody, the winner of the loser. Its just one team dumpstering another and it happens at all levels.
It's literally a story about this thing happening.

>But we all kept our mouth shut, and picked the safe side of things. She left defeated, perhaps humiliated.

Anti-sexual harassment training, and more broadly the discouraging of socialization between men and women, has also reduced the opportunity for men and women to marry. The flip side of the male executive no longer being able to chase his secretary around a desk to try to pinch her on the butt is another executive not being able to politely court the secretary he is in love with (and vice versa).

I don't have a good answer for how to get the one without the other, but both are consequences of modern sensibilities.
Apple definitely has pre bought TSMC’s entire new process runs, but the poster above was talking about a different arrangement, where Apple buys and owns actual machinery that is located on a supplier’s factory line.

The near term charts there seem to be operating on a ten to twenty thousand year time scale.

On that scale, of course we're on the far opposite end away from what would be called the last glacial maximum, when a bunch of global water was locked up in ice sheets across North America and Europe.

Europeans discover that the continent is not made of magic dirt that assimilates migrants into your society upon entry.

Europeans also discover that weapons restrictions only go so far when you have active organized criminal groups with the initiative and contacts necessary to smuggle firearms and grenades into Western/Northern Europe from a number of regions (Ex-Yugoslavia, Albania, former Soviet Union, North Africa, etc.) that are only a car-ride or fishing boat trip away.
I don't think drag-n-drop, workflow-diagram type of application builders are ever going to replace devs.

WordPress is probably the killer "no-code" app builder, and that has actually eaten a lot of the bottom out of web development. People can do their landing pages, eCommerce, media companies, etc. without needing a professional.
Well, no evidence and benefit of the doubt are separate concepts. You can say that no record was made of it, and that it probably happened.
I wish I knew.

I have never found any source remotely close to it but it would be nice if we had a revision history on laws so we could see who added what lines and why. I'm guessing it is out there in some official record.

I have to say, nobody should take parenting advice from HN.

To those defending paying attention to your phone instead of your kid — get a grip and get your priorities straight. Your kids are only young for so long and then it’s over forever. The article here is trying to remind you that each moment is precious, whether you realize it or not.
What is wrong with sexualized characters anyway? It's escapist entertainment. Are men now forbidden from enjoying attractive women in media? Absolutely don't harass people or discriminate, but this posture against sexualized characters is weirdly puritanical, especially considering the long history in games of non-sexualized, empowered female protagonists.
I believe I got that link from Daring Fireball originally.
Both politicians are of Indian extraction and descent but not only were born in Canada, but grew up there entirely. It's incorrect to claim that "their country" is India and not Canada. Second generation immigrants are not necessarily well-versed in nor even aware of the goings-on of their ancestral homelands.

Though technically you are correct on both counts. By dint of being born after 1950 but before 1992 to Indian fathers, they may be considered Indian citizens. And based on the ancestral comment in this subthread, it does seem like being an outsource destination is working out for Canada. But only technically correct.

>FWIW, criminals think everyone is a criminal. Tax evaders think it's just normal. Thieves think everyone steals. Etc...

...and law abiding folk think they never break the law.

Ever lent someone money at 0% interest? Did you report it on your taxes? If not, you may technically be guilty of tax evasion.

Ever binned someone else's junk mail? Welcome to mail tampering.

There is a big difference between the law as written and the law as enforced. I guarantee you, if you go looking hard enough, there are some downright stupid laws on the books.

Hell look at mask laws! It was a huge controversy in some places last year because minorities in jurisdictions with historical anti-face covering statutes we're damned if they did, damned if they didn't.

Look at San Fran. The DA won't prosecute shoplifters, yet people walk out stores without paying under the statutory threshold. You going to try to say that the law makes even a lick of sense when you get degenerate circumstances?

Or are you going to take refuge in "Well, only the laws that matter?" If we go down that road it only gets worse.

How about... Mmmm. Jaywalking? Loitering? Noise violations that never got reported? Driving overweight vehicles down a road designed with weight capacity 1 ton less? Using an aerosol not perfectly in accordance with the instructions? Test driven an vehicle you didn't have registered on a public road? Improperly disposed of medication? Thrown a lithium ion battery in the garbage? Travelled with something in a trailer that qualifies as hazmat without getting a placard? Speeding? Had livestock escape, damage something, with no real dramatic outcome? Still infractions. Even if charges aren't pressed.
Hi!

I'm not sure if this is appropriate, but getting conversation representation and message sorting right is the largest focus of my passion project, Ametha.

It would be amazing if I could have a 15 minute voice call with you to hear about your experiences with online communication & collaboration?

The offer is obviously open to anyone else here as well, but no pressure at all, and apologies if HN is not the right avenue for this.

> Why don't you like them _and_ which of those reasons will affect their job performance?

Do they think their code is so perfect that unit tests are unnecessary? These are good reasons to dislike someone and not hire them.

> Do you dislike them because they seem kind of boring? Get over yourself.

This is an interesting discussion that brings a lot of vitriolic comments.

A counterpoint that you seem to be dismissing: building a successful team often requires a good cultural and team fit. Hiring just on 'merit' alone doesn't guarantee success.

Consider the example of hiring a 'superstar' that the other team members do not like which would consequently impact the performance of the team as a whole because they don't work optimally. For the manager in charge of the team, culture fit is an important factor alongside others.
I think people may be missing the connection between punishments being with severe, and kept at a low level. A platoon will do a lot more to punish someone than a battalion.

Justice under the UCMJ is similar to how a grand jury operates, where the highest ranking officers will hear a case with evidence, and make decisions about guilt and punishment. Platoon level punishment is much more freeform, and tends to ignore those rules about type and duration of punishment; much more corporal in nature.
Not gonna lie, keeping up a machine like this spitting fire drinks for years is a great couple's activity.
I think it would be perfectly reasonable to describe any RNN as being "aware" of information that it learned and then used to make a decision.

"Possess awareness" seems like loaded language though, evoking consciousness. In that direction I'd just quote Dijkstra: "The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim."
This one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbTQoFjOAdM looks like something simple enough that you could maybe sell it to families? Like, instead of installing a playground, install this coaster.

I'm not sure what the safety/liability situation would be like, but the coaster is close to the ground—if the child wears a helmet I don't think this would be more dangerous than a set of swing set or jungle gym?
In Santa Clara County COVID-19 deaths were originally over counted by 22% before they adjusted the methodology. Other public health agencies have had similar data quality problems. So not half, but a significant fraction.

Maybe their criminal parents who put them in that situation should be the ones doing the explaining.
I just know from my big Corp training manual that things like “crush” and “take down” should never be in corporate communication for legal reasons.

From a “reasonable” perspective, there are two possibilities, both of which implicate the ceo.

1. “Take her down” was enough information, in which case he is at fault.

2. It wasn’t enough information, in which case further discussion was had offline.

I am convinced beyond reasonable doubt that there is no option:
3. The employees thought it was enough information incorrectly and began a criminal conspiracy because they’re just so eager to please.

And Android has really stumbled lately.

For those of us without Android devices, and who only know what's happening with Android through HN, can you elaborate on this a bit?
Fair point. The AS/400 itself was also a successful consolidation of the S/36 and S/38 product lines.

Consolidation has worked on a relatively small scale where two platforms were combined, attempts to produce one platform to rule them all have generally failed.
Do people who make ad hominem comments on the internet think that everyone makes ad hominem comments on the internet?
I mostly agree. I don't think that means "black" is a valid cultural identity and "white" is not.

Slavery, oppression, and loss are not the only ways in which a shared culture can be formed.
Sure, that's valid. I takes most things the Russian gov says with a grain of salt but we shouldn't always question everything because that is their prime tactic of control - simultaneous information and disinformation.

To be clear, I'm not suggesting the facilities are getting ripped off. In reddit terms, Everyone Sucks Here. Facilities use every shady tactic to get people in the door, so nobody should shed a tear for them.

My overall answer is that companies that bill insurance live in a complex world. Insurance tries to dodge payouts and will pay the insured; the facilities try to jam billing.

Perhaps an anecdote will be representative: I worked for one of the biggest providers, with dozens of facilities. They had a call center whose job it was to get insurance to approve another 3 days of treatment (30 day stay = 10 of these calls). Insurance companies don't staff their end, so the call centers were paying people to wait on the line for several hours, just to get treatment approved. (I ended up building a Twilio integration to queue up without a person on the phone.)

This is just a shitty, awful area of medicine and business and insurance.
It's weird, I've driven a few different cars and measured the MPG in them, and that's what I'm finding too. 60mph seems like the sweet spot.

I wonder if they design specifically for that speed, as it's the speed on most highways in america (someone correct me if not true)
Thank you. Online might be doable.

Ironically, your title is quite accurate. It is "as indisputable as climate change evidence gets".
Glad you brought that up. Let me point out that Biden, Obama, and Clinton switched from bad to good. That's called evolving. Trump used to be pro-gay, but then switched from good to bad, selling out gays to get elected. That's called devolving.

I prefer people who evolve like Biden, Obama, and Clinton did, instead of devolve like Trump did, by selling out to haters in exchange for political power.

As far as I know (and I've asked people who've known him for a long long time), Brendan has always been badly against gay marriage, with no plans of ever evolving or apologizing or even explaining himself.

And yes I've asked Brendan himself about it, and he outright refuses to explain or justify or apologize for either his hateful opinions or his hateful actions that hurt other people.

Brendan Eich went way beyond simply holding an opinion when he purposefully contributed money to the campaign to tear apart other people's marriages and destroy their families.

Brendan's money paid for TV commercials blasting lies, stereotypes, prejudices, and attacks against gay people.

Brendan's goals were satisfied: Proposition 8 passed, and marriages were destroyed because of his support, thanks to the anti-gay propaganda campaign he helped fund.

Brendan Eich knew quite well what he was doing by supporting Proposition 8, and he totally meant to do it, and he has never apologized or evolved, or even "argued his opinion" as you falsely claim he uses his means to do. He never even meant for his opinion to be known, let alone argued for it in pubic.

But I strongly suspect he isn't thrilled that GamerGate and Alt-Right have made him their unwitting hero and martyr and poster child, and that they keep spreading the lie that Brendan was fired from Mozilla because of cancel culture, when Brendan actually resigned of his own free will, and Brendan has said repeatedly himself he resigned and was not pushed out, and the Mozilla board said "Brendan voluntarily submitted his resignation", and the board actually begged him to stay, and this is all very well documented and not contested except by batshit crazy conspiracy theorists.

https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/faq-on-ceo-resignation/

>Q: Was Brendan Eich fired?

>A: No, Brendan Eich resigned. Brendan himself said:

>“I have decided to resign as CEO effective April 3rd, and leave Mozilla. Our mission is bigger than any one of us, and under the present circumstances, I cannot be an effective leader. I will be taking time before I decide what to do next.”

>Brendan Eich also blogged on this topic.

https://brendaneich.com/2014/04/the-next-mission/

>Q: Was Brendan Eich asked to resign by the Board?

>A: No. It was Brendan’s idea to resign, and in fact, once he submitted his resignation, Board members tried to get Brendan to stay at Mozilla in another C-level role.
All luxury brands make products that have incredible satisfaction metrics. That's not what makes them luxury brands. The meticulous brand image crafting is.
Funny to compare the western press's coverage of this story with how they've reported incidents nearer to home where Islamic extremists have deliberately driven vehicles into people.

For example, BBC World Service's news coverage concentrated on whether or not the charged man would have the right to appeal against whatever sentence he is handed down and whether he'd be sent to the mainland to serve it. They didn't even mention the injuries received by the cops he tried to run down.

And I see the same sentiment being expressed here in the comments. Just because China is the bad guy here makes it OK to deliberately ride a vehicle into people?

It depends on what you mean by "deeply" and how you wish to go about it.

If you want to try and pick it up on your own, start with the book "Introduction to Naval Architecture" by Thomas Gillmer and Bruce Johnson, from the US Naval Institute. From there, if you're still interested, probably "Applied Naval Architecture" by Robert Zubaly or something from SNAME (Society for Naval Architects and Marine Engineers).

If you want to go to school and you don't want to get a degree in it, you can study something similar; but, related. (I majored in Ocean Engineering, which included a number of naval architecture courses.)
