I don't know how you can possibly interpret that as a call to remove law as unfixable.

That just says "neckbeards constantly test limits, Westerners are lawsuit happy because it lets them emotionally avoid compromise, and sometimes people should choose not to take everything to court when they could just be nice."

I have the strong impression that you have never read this book and are trying to argue from a search engine

Large parts of this book rail against what you're saying as villainy, and that it is oppressors who argue for the removal of the law in the faked hope of finding something better
In house HR is predominately female nowadays as well.
I remember part of the report on the Uber that ran the person over was that the Uber’s classifier couldn’t figure out what a person with a bike in the road was, so it didn’t make it into the decision tree. I’m curious if that’s what happened here - Tesla never trained their cars to recognize airplanes, so it just didn’t “see” it.
I'm not the OP, but I'll bite.

For many species, males have a higher standard deviation across a variety factors. There are biological reasons for this, since males are more disposable than females for reproduction. Think of one rooster for a dozen hens - this is still a viable flock, even if the other roosters get eaten. Nature can experiment more with males simply because the stakes are lower, and sometimes those experiments are worthwhile. [edit: Turns out this is not true for birds, so I learned something!]

Now, if you have two normal distributions with the same average and area but a tiny difference in the standard deviation... well, let's not go there because the math is too politically incorrect. [edit: And besides, many other factors affect outcomes besides genetics, so I do believe we should keep policies gender-unbiased as a matter of principle].
The use case is that you can host your blog on it and store your bitcoins in it and it won't crash, can't get hacked, and is easy to move from one VM host to another. The network architecture is an implementation detail to get messaging to work reliably, not some kind of ideological statement.
It's pretty bad/awkward on macos, I've found that the client works miles better on windows and linux

Amusingly, your comment did make me feel some amount of embarrassment because I suspect you are right. That's probably a bad mode of evaluation of someone. I just don't think we should go all the way to Godwin, but who can tell, maybe that's exactly how it goes. After all, from Leonard Cohen:

You seemed to have missed the author's point.

Superhero stories were supposed to represent an escape from the old, adult-focused form of entertainment. Where they ended up was of course just another form of it.

The money quote is: "Wallowing in death isn’t a sophisticated leap beyond the superhero concept; it’s the failure to imagine what it means not to die."

You can liken this to the sitcom. Storytellers had to envision a platform upon which an endless number of stories could be told in a particular format, without getting boring. The setting, including the characters, have to remain static. Breaking the sitcom mold doesn't make for an evolved sitcom, it makes for a devolved one. One that brought back all the problems that the sitcom format resolved.

Superhero comic books had to appeal to seven year-olds, while still retaining enough in there to keep the teens and then adults they grew up into entertained. You need a story that can live forever, and still remain interesting. The bad guys have to get handled with a minimum of fuss, and understated magic, such as Batman never killing anyone, is an appropriate storytelling device. The morality play, good beating evil, and all the whimsy and silliness that conjuring it entailed, is just part of the superhero format.

Without all that, they're not superheroes, they're just story protagonists with special powers that are sometimes heroic. That's the argument the author's making.
You are kind of proving my point: room for artwork can't be at the expense of the stuff that actually does work.
Yea I guess... How would I set this up? Do I need some sort of wallet? How would a random website author know what to do with this specific cryptocurrency?
I'm almost 50. I've been working in tech since 1996, and at this point, despite being a strong and seasoned engineer, I'm getting comments like, "it's different now", or "back in your day", etc, and the very young engineers fresh from school are the ones throwing this around. Those with a few years of experience under their belt don't.

It's really disheartening, but it's also my job to train these bozos and turn them into good engineers, which they most certainly are not coming fresh from school.
Regardless of what you do, you're not only a sample size of one, but it doesn't mean they're not going to try.

The person I responded to was musing that CNN was doing this to try and crack into a younger audience. And it's like: no shit. They want to either find ways to integrate into more youthful demographics or get more youthful demographics to integrate them into their habits.

Joe Camel wasn't made to appeal to adult smokers.
That's not really correct from any reasonable interpretation.
Live video streaming production API
It was normalized back when the first video rental stores opened decades ago. It remains today because there needs to be some way to differentiate between a rental and a purchase, otherwise everything would become a purchase at a significantly higher price point.

Maybe the limit could be 72 or 96 hours instead. Or you could rent it with no time limit but maybe can't ever rewind then you can make it last as long as you need but when it's done, it's done.
As a corporate culture, Google very much believes that if you ask the pre-car public what they want, they'd say "faster horses."

... and the willingness to take risks has historically served them pretty well.
Unfortunately Logitech has discontinued the Harmony line. I would be very wary about starting off fresh with them, because they are reliant on Logitech's servers being available.

That being said, you can pry my Harmony Ultimate from my cold, dead hands. I'm not looking forward to the day I have to get rid of it, because there's really nothing out there to replace it with.
Someone somewhere will be concerned by the literal words you speak, or the way you say it, or what you actually meant, intended or unintended. They will do it with good intentions or not, and no meaningful discussion will occur because it would be shorter, cost nothing, and offend no-one if you just let them win.
HR & recruiting are female dominated simply because hiring women in these roles is the easiest way for a company to get their diversity numbers up.
Moral superiority is the cheapest form of superiority.
Which is racist.
comparing to the population at large isn't the most valid thing to do. Many fields are dominated by women - nursing to name just one. Even within nursing, there are a lot of latino and phillipino nurses. by your logic, the largest ethnic group of nurses in a country like the US or UK should be white women.

There are many more factors at play here.
We're on HN, so you probably know your way around websites. But let me know if I can help you with an 'internet friendly' website (quick loading, no third party code, stats without tracking, clear layout, beautiful styles, easy editing, and more).
They weren’t dominate. The “computer programming” work they did was borderline clerical in nature.

I totally agree. Overall the quality just dropped dramatically and what made Netflix great is disappearing.
If only we had some laws that were enforced:

* Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin;

* the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA), which protects men and women who perform substantially equal work in the same establishment from sex-based wage discrimination;

* the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), which protects individuals who are 40 years of age or older;

* Title I and Title V of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (ADA), which prohibit employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities in the private sector, and in state and local governments;

* Sections 501 and 505 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities who work in the federal government;

* Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA), which prohibits employment discrimination based on genetic information about an applicant, employee, or former employee;

* and the Civil Rights Act of 1991, which, among other things, provides monetary damages in cases of intentional employment discrimination.
> In fact I feel a lot of ancient metal work looks a bit non-symmetric (dare I say sloppy?) - though there doesn't seem to be any technical limitation at play

Clipping[0] is probably the main reason: at the time, coin face value was directly based on their metals content. If you shaved and sold off the metal while using the coin for its face value, you'd make a profit. That might go on until the coin got so obviously debased it wouldn't be accepted anymore. Warding against clipping is (supposedly) the reason why modern coins are often ridged and inscribed.

I wonder if all the “women in tech” programs simply serve as warning signs that there aren’t enough women in tech, and there’s a good chance a woman going into tech is going into an all boys club.
I think we should play diverse more on financial background, not on racial/gender.
ITT: Developers, who are so normally concerned about copyright and licensing, making excuses as to why they should be able to ignore copyright and licensing for things they want.

Next time HN pops up with a licensing thread, it would be helpful to reuse arguments here as to why any company or person should be able to freely do what they want with source code, art, graphics, etc.
Yep. It even has an android app. And I agree, the catalog has more holes than it used to. Still more content than the streaming service though.
Men and women share fundamentally different genetic configurations which makes it seem illogical to me. What makes it seem logical to you?
Well now only a fraction of content is on Netflix so if one compares the time cost of spending 2 hours doing so once this decade vs spending $200 a month for everything from live TV to Disney.

The easy option will cost you 24000 over 10 years. If you earn 20 bucks an hour or less like near half of America this represents an additional 1200 labor hours or a full time job for 30 weeks.
Well, people over 40 are a protected class but you don’t see tech companies falling over themselves to hire old farts (being an older fart myself). I’d like to think the ratios have changed but it was bloody hard to diversify hiring of real senior people (20+Years) not that long ago. Particularly if advanced degrees were also required. It was even hard to hire chemists in ‘05 with a gender balance - turned into an age balance due to the “generation before” choices,

Work today to balance schooling and hacking communities so there will be balanced survivors 10-20 years on. And provide some kind of useful parental leave so the women can return after committing parenthood. Good, inexpensive child care would also be a big, big help.
My four full-size ceiling led lights (think old school Florissant size in a square configuration) are independent and triggered by motion with self timed off. Perfect. My front porch lights are similar but just dusk to dawn automatic. Perfect. Oh, the garage door opener is Siri controlled but I can take it off with a bluetooth tag I've been to lazy to setup. Near perfect. Only Google Home is used for IOT to lazily control the temp. I really like my smooth home automation thus far.
This is interesting though I doubt I would ever enable this because I loathe popup advertisements probably more than AMP
This really isn't a problem anyone wants to solve. STEM especially has unique issues where if you take extended absences things such as your skills or research will be invalided over the short periods you may be gone. Tackle that with a lack of a childcare and you have a system set to ensure the failure of women. Retention is close to impossible as the cost of childcare is impossibly high.
> those who don't like that landlords exist, and those who don't like that the concept of owning land exists.

I think these two groups would prefer "landlord" over "proprietor" because "landlord" has a much more negative connotation and probably inspires a visceral reaction in anyone who's had a bad landlord. Only the "male" thing makes any sort of sense from a left wing POV.
So if a blatantly sexist organization that deliberately only hired me is still doing okay, that's not a problem?
Thanks for taking a look through! I appreciate the feedback.

I'll disable to page transitions for now, especially since they're poorly supported on iOS anyway.
> A vertical list is a waste of horizontal space when it's a list of movie posters.

It doesn't need to be a list of movie posters.

> If you want a grid, its basically what they have.

It's not though, you have to scroll horizontally for each section. That's not the same as a grid.

> I'm asking for a specific implemented app that feels better in practice, not just something you think might work better.

That's tough to do if everyone is implementing it poorly. However, I would say that something like this feels better in practice (even if it's still not ideal): https://i.imgur.com/AU6Az7e.jpeg
I’m you from the future. We started on a hybrid office more than 4 months back. Hybrid was very weak with the requirement of 66% of the time in the office (1.5 days work from home?)

Management has recently reported that it’s failing and is signaling that people need to return to the office full time. This is absent the evidence of any failures (only allusions to kpis) and with many people already having refused to return to the office for even a fraction of the time for hybrid work. If the company shows stronger resolve the only end game is those people leaving or being let go by the company.

As another poster said individuals know the quality of their work and if they perform better remote or at work. The individuals doing well will never be convinced by management of the need to return.
I'm sure there is the equivalent of a laffer curve by which intangibles are valued subjectively like that. At some point of government overreach people leave... and they are leaving in droves.
A landlord can still have a day job.
Why do you expect that corruption decreases over time?
These look pretty nice, hopefully they will make it into Iconify's database so I can make use of them:

How often are you renting a 2 hour movie without having a 2+ hour window of free time to watch it?
I still read Le Monde because they touch on a lot of topics and are usually honest. But their bias is tiring sometimes, like with the current election. I vote for their candidate, but I'm not impressed with the barrage of one-sided reporting. It's still kind of the French "paper of record" though.

Maybe try Le Monde Diplomatique. They're more critical towards globalization and free exchange, but even if you don't agree with them, their articles always dig deep and leave you knowing the subject. They even have English translations for some articles. Recommended by a history teacher some years ago and I haven't been disappointed.

Mediapart is also interesting for French politics. They discovered quite a lot of scandals that made headlines everywhere afterwards: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediapart#Landmark_investigati...
According to the FAQ https://verandaplan.org/faq the road under the bridge is closed for 7 days (already closed) and the highway is closed for 3.

All in all that's a pretty low amount of time; often these are done by closing the road under for an unspecified amount of time, diverting all traffic onto one bridge span (reduce to one lane in each direction) and replacing the bridge a half at a time.
I wonder how it works psychologically. Even in Avengers, the "good people" turning into dust clearly affected the audience much more than "the bad people" being killed in various ways during the movie.
This is not something we all know intuitively. This is a conclusion you have come to and decided is THE truth instead of just YOUR truth. History is full of people like you and all we can do is hope that they never gain any power over the rest of our lives.
Sorry but that's pseudo-scientific bollocks. Far from being "well-established fact" it is actually contentious and poorly supported by the evidence.

Intelligence testing is a human created concept. There are all manner of cultural biases encoded in it. Intelligence is more than just being good at sums which is what your math SAT example seems to suggest.

Jeopardy champions are hardly a representative group. They're a self-selecting group by definition : those who chose to go on a quiz show. Maybe men show a bias towards showing off on TV or are better at remembering random facts. Your example doesn't control for any of those.
Google's owners have a majority. There is no real pressure shareholders can apply. This is by design.
Any non-brain dead design will keep the password around only long enough to hash it and compare that to the store hash, and then promptly get rid of it. You can’t just read passwords from memory as if it were an open book.
I’m somewhat sympathetic toward your POV, but the average tenure in this industry is like 1.5 years or something like that. It’s not like young people stick around for a long time, and I would wager that older people are more likely to stick with a company (the older people I know are more likely to talk about “company loyalty” than my age cohort).
“4-5 new HBO episodes every Thu and Sun”

There’s not anything particularly compelling right now IMO on HBO dropping new episodes except for Tokyo Vice… which others am I missing?
To be fair, the male/female nomenclature for connectors has been a mess for decades.

One old convention, mostly originating with radio-frequency connectors, is that the gender of the connector is the gender of its innermost contact. Thus, the plug of the common 2.5" and 2.1" connector of power supplies is technically female because the inner contact is a hole. The socket on the appliance has a pin in the middle and is technically male. When you try to buy one, half the time the part is labelled as male and the other half it is labelled as female.

But there is no problem bad enough that cannot be made worse by government. Years ago some US regulator didn't like the fact that people were plugging big radio antennas into wifi equipment, so they invented the "reverse-polarity" connector. What used to be a "SMA male" connector with a pin in the middle now is a "RP SMA male" connector with a hole in the middle. Here is a random link with a picture: http://cablesondemandblog.com/wordpress1/2014/05/05/reverse_... If you order this kind of connectors, now you have a 25% chance of getting what you need. One RP SMA male and a SMA female will mate together but not propagate any signals.

Wait, isn't this the exact definition of privilege?
I want one. Totally for civilian, sporting purposes. The varmints won't know what hit 'em.

I expect the BATF would be seventeen sorts of stuffed up about the licensing for something like this. I say the 2nd Amendment covers it.
I'm not singling you out so much as I started writing a response to "I sat down for drinks with this person and they seemed nice" and realized I was getting sucked into the same drama. We can just not talk about the guy at all; that's an option we have. Let's do it that way.
I hope these people are in the minority. I'm 21, I have my first internship coming up in the summer, and I am ecstatic to learn from engineers more experienced than me, no matter what age.

A few workplaces ago the company was hiring from a recruiter instructed with bringing only female or non white people.

When I opposed that I was pointed to the actual UK law for positive discrimination which explicitly allow discrimination.

I never had faith in society, but I had no idea we fell so low.

I think most western countries are completely lost and will never get back. With woke activists controlling big tech, universities and the press, there is truly no hope for western countries.

I moved to a country where society is a bit backward for modern standards and I'll look into moving again once they catch up with the modern world.
Former Googler (until a couple of months ago). I've never seen anything like it, but maybe I just didn't use "bad" words in code? There were presubmit checks for typos and such. Also, IIRC I asked people in code/design reviews to rename white/black lists to allow/deny lists, but it might have just been in docs.

I did get an angry code review response from a fellow engineer once, after writing in a commit description (not the actual code) something like "this is a stupid fix but it stops the linter from bitching about so and so" - for using both the words "stupid" and "bitch". I guess the second one was on point but referring to my own work as "stupid" is pretty okay in my book. I would never ever describe anyone else's work as such.
Because worrs carry not only direct meanings, but subjective connotations, and most people consider slavery an unjust subjugation of another human being, and think it is immoral by definition, in any circumstances. On the other hand, even most of the people who aren't fans of US prison system still consider the general idea of prison to be just, as the general idea of prison labour as a way to repay society.
If this was conclusively proven to be a benefit, you could acquire the equipment, drain a pint of your own blood, and then put it in the compost every couple months.
The local water company does not provide deluxe or budget versions, water is water. The same applies to gas and electricity. All are major household expenses.

In the context of a large city, there certainly is differentiation in transport. You can grab a large amount of the scarce road space for yourself with a car (even more if you park on-street) or taxi, or you can take a smaller share of it by getting on a bus, bike or tram.
