Nope. That's exactly my point. The fact that they aren't somewhere around 50% is sufficient to show it. Filtering does not happen solely at the interview. It happens at hundreds or thousands of steps along the way. It's a systemic problem.

Go ahead, do your study. You'd probably find that most hospitals have a slight preference for male nurses as they're trying to increase their diversity for all the practical benefits it brings. (Yes, diversity has a lot of practical benefits. Having people with a lot of different backgrounds around significantly improves the odds of having someone around who can successfully interact with a person no one else can.)

So if hospitals, theoretically, have a slight preference for male nurses in hiring right now... Why are they so uncommon? Because there are fewer candidates.

Hiring isn't "the problem". No one thing is "the problem". There's no bad guy to blame. No evil cabal. You don't need to get upset every time someone points out a systemic bias.

You aren't being accused of anything. You aren't the bad guy. But it would be nice if you acknowledged things are a bit out of whack, and helped to reduce the skew in the next generation. You don't need to fix it. It's enough to occasionally point out things could be better.
In my opinion, easy rust is easy, hard rust is hard. A lot of people take for granted how hard some things are to do correctly until they are asked to do them correctly. Not saying this to put you down, we all struggle with this until we get over the hump.

My best advice for loving errr learning rust is put it aside for a few weeks after being annoyed with it. Survey some other language like idk Haskell, then try it again.
I don't really know who you're arguing against, because I'm with you on the points you address. Why I care that its open is so that when they eventually pull a Microsoft, or Facebook style anti-consumer move, we can fork off and continue on how we see fit. It's about control of our communication.

Using signal is the same as using WhatsApp. Eventually Facebook will buy it.
Ok my reaction too but we should temper it in that we're hearing someone reporting what someone reported that they heard. It could be utterly baseless, it could be missing a load of context, it could be distorted beyond reason.

"Others said..." Also a them kinda deal right there.
These kind of applications you want to build require access to xorg api, dbus and many others.

Your best options here are gtk or qt.

If you don't want to use c/vala for gtk or c++ for qt, you can use python which have bindings for both libraries, just search for pyqt or pygtk.

And both qt and gtk offers unofficial bindings for several languages.

Beyond these, your best shot could be flutter, because Canonical is building lots of libraries to make flutter an alternative for Linux desktop application development.
A specific form of bad research which could be at play here: The researchers programmatically searched the space of possible control variables to include until they came up with a model which maximized the apparent effect size for coffee, so they could publish an interesting & widely cited paper that looked good on their resumes.

With N different control variables to either include or ignore, that's 2^N possible sets of control variables. Odds are decent at least one of those regressions has a large effect size for coffee.

I would trust this sort of research more if instead of publishing a particular set of control variables obtained by an unspecified method, the researchers chose 100 of those 2^N possible sets of control variables at random, then published the average effect size from the 100 resulting regressions. Ideally they would make the code to reproduce this average effect size publicly available, so anyone could easily replicate using another 100 randomly generated regressions.

What makes you think it isn’t?
I really like the idea of something like vlang (https://vlang.io), as I've tried multiple times to find the motivation to learn Rust, but always end up going back to golang for the simplicity.
News flash: there used to be entire departments of humans that did this (and in some companies there still are).

Your corporate comms are monitored and there is no privacy.
The author sounds like a major "Karen." Just because policies say you have to report something doesn't mean you can't pretend to have never saw anything in the first place. That would have been the correct move here seeing as this is academia and the stakes are so low.
Not sure why it was necessary to put SV startup CEO into quotation marks. Also funny that you think that somehow Bezos and Elon are struggling. And lastly, screwing people over will not get you fame but infamy (regardless of how high the inflation is or what you read on r/antiwork).
1) You need to audit that code, which.. everyone will have to do on both sides of the communication channel.

2) https://signal.org/blog/reproducible-android/

> the Signal Android codebase includes some native shared libraries that we employ for voice calls (WebRTC, etc). At the time this native code was added, there was no Gradle NDK support yet, so the shared libraries aren’t compiled with the project build.

A good answer in my opinion, but it does mean that what you install from the play store is not reproducible and thus can never really be confirmed to be the same as public sources. There are also binary blobs needed for interacting with Google Play.

3) Signal is openly hostile to third party client implementations: https://github.com/LibreSignal/LibreSignal/issues/37 Meaning they have a near monopoly on all signal communications through their client.. and since it's not reproducible, I hope everyone is building from source.
I also asked you something but you refused to consider it.

I wonder if you also deny genocide Serbians committed, like Chomsky? I'm just curious.

I think that very likely Chomsky is nothing more than a Russian shill, and considering how in harmony all of it resonates, I would give it high likelihood to be correct.

It was also discussed here, perhaps you missed it https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31457200

Did input from Chomsky help somehow or was the opposite true that it muddied the discussion and made reaching the solution actually much harder?

This is why I started with comparison. To show that you can't just ask randomly: but what about? First most situations are not comparable and second, it really does not help.

Even though you appear to be blind to humane examples, I will try again with one.

Imagine you are in a foreign city, you have no money, you do knot know anybody, you have hunger. So you ask a person for help, you explain your situation and this person asks, but what about children in Africa?

You see, whataboutism did not help you and it did not also help children in Africa. That is the whole point of whataboutism - direct the attention away from the actual problem that needs direct immediate action.

So lets take one another example. There is Russian invasion in Ukraine, Russia is committing war crimes on large scale and it is most likely preparing for wide scale genocide. Ukraine needs immediate international assistance to counter the invasion, it needs humanitarian aid, financial aid and military aid and strong diplomatic support.

Now instead of actually reacting to this real need, to actually end the invasion, you ask, but what about Yemen?

Like asking about children in Africa, how does it help?

It certainly does not help Ukraine and it for sure does not help Yemen.

Because nobody cares about Yemen and now there is high likelihood that they do not also care about Ukraine anymore.

The person who asked from hungry you about children in Africa did not want to help them, he just wanted to distract you to go away.

I will write in sibling comment about Ukraine and Yemen in more detail.
I'm surprised they see spending less on advertising as part of their EV strategy. Copying Tesla in that regard might not work out the way they want it to. IMO Non-Tesla EVs are already facing an uphill awareness battle.

I think it's important to note that that contemporary language death at the hands of the major lingua francas (you know who you are) is wiping out great and possibly very old works of oral 'literature'. Quite a few of our surviving great epics, sagas, and lyric(s) originated as oral works. With the death of collapse of these languages, from the Amazon to Siberia to Africa to Europe, these works (not to mention the loads of historical and cultural revealed in them) have or will shortly go entirely extinct.

Not too much we can do about it though.
Few people are able to view unions objectively instead of picking a side, a union comes with tradeoffs not universal goods or evils. There are plenty of examples of unions fixing things and plenty examples of them making things worse, your opinion of a union shouldn't be based on keeping score but actually looking at the risks and rewards. Unless an organization is particularly nice, unions make a lot of sense for low skill, high turnover jobs in large corporations; unless a organization is particularly bad, unions don't make sense in high skill professional positions.
The upside is that Coinbase is very clearly trending towards substantial layoffs if the market doesn’t recover, and if she did join now, she’d have been straight back out the door in the first layoff. Therefore, while this is painful for her now, it’ll hopefully be for the greater good long term: being at a company, like Coinbase, during a downturn, is an awful experience that would be more harmful to her longterm career than this situation. Hopefully she’s able to find another opportunity with a company that isn’t facing economic crisis, and a few months from now, she’ll be thankful to have dodged a Coinbase shaped bullet.
Right, and this functionality is to punish you for nothingburgers as much as actual crimes. "Leaver" detection is something that is entirely sane for corporations to do but will be abused by the usual suspects in HR to instill fear and to retribute.

The article ended just as it got good. What exactly does fixed price sales mean and why can't dealerships do that?

What is Ford's plan for dealerships? Tesla has dealerships too right? I walked past the one in Red Hook Brooklyn. Or maybe that was just servicing? But they did have new cars there.

And why won't Ford be advertising EVs? Super bowl ads always have car commercials. How else are they going to be able to tell people about the EVs? Unless they plan only to use their existing clout to attract people once they're already in the dealership or site?

Lots of questions.
I am all for removing location based pay. But the devil is in the details. There is a reason why location based pay exist. Every country taxes salary differently. Taxes in CA is different from Florida and Taxes in US / EU/ Asia are widely different. So if the pre-tax amount to employee is 100k. In CA you'll probably get around 60k and in florida ~80k. (These are rough numbers, but I hope you get the idea). This might seem like employee in florida is making more than CA. But the net cost to company is the same.

There was an article here on HN about the Ford Lightning a few days ago, and now this one. I think their free marketing strategy must be working if it's even reaching the HN crowd, which is not really a traditional market for Ford pickups.
Big corporations tend to copy what trendy tech companies do, and react dominates that market place. I haven’t look into too much but I’ve yet to see something like a boot camp even teach angular. It’s always react and friends.
I think you're both right. Rust with green threads would have been incompatible with their goals for embedded. Otoh, if the runtime was pluggable at compile time, you could retain that choice while catering to the majority user base (i.e. the ones currently using Tokio).

In order to do that, you'd have to have an abstraction over the syscalls. I'm not entirely sure this is feasible with all the ins and outs of Rust, but seeing the success of Loom, I'm at least optimistic.
I completely agree. I think the syntax looks awful, for one. This has put me off learning it completely.

Not even. Transcription functionality already works for explicitly-recorded meetings in Teams. I'm sure their cloud resource costs to run it are negligible, too. A change in privacy stance is all that's required.

Pissing people off does incur a cost, though. Perhaps you're right.
Funny how Amazon or Microsoft are perfectly happy to have mostly the same prices worldwide. Let me know when I can call them both to be priced at my country COL.

There is always a justification or theoretical argument to avoid giving workers more rights.
Are the dealerships going to sue Ford? It will be interesting to watch.
You're missing the point of the comment you're replying to: labor organization does not require government permission to exist. It existed long before any sort of government quasi-protection.

There are many examples of this including Solidarity [1] and the Peasants' Revolt of 1381 [2] following attempts to freeze wages following the Black Death where demand suddenly exceeded supply and pushed up wages.

And this isn't even counting the cases where peasant and worker uprisings that led to revolutions.

The concept of a general strike is a relatively modern one but an extremely powerful one regardless of any legalities.

Note that observational data can come in strong flavor as well, as in natural experiments, but I’m not holding my breath on a quasi-random decades-long coffee shortage striking half of any population soon. There’s always a chance a situation of this kind is ongoing somewhere though I guess?
This is nothing new: corporations have scanned instant messages, emails and even recorded phone calls for decades, and will fire you based on that evidence for violations of corporate policy. And will sue you or call the cops if they detect potential crimes.

I’m kind of surprised so many people are shocked by this. I know of one company where dozens of people were fired because their email was scanned for external job interviews and the CIO had a report, which he used to prematurely cut staff when he needed to save budget.

The only difference now is that the tech is smarter and cheaper so that you don’t need to pay as many people to spy on their coworkers.

Your defence against this is to find a job where you’re too valuable for them to do anything. As with any jurisdiction where there is at will employment.
I thought that's what this was...

Rust marks cross-thread shared memory as immutable in the general case, and allows you to define your own shared mutability constructs out of primitives like mutexes, atomics, and UnsafeCell. As a result you don't get rope to hang yourself with by default, but atomic orderings are more than enough rope to devise incorrect synchronizations (especially with more than 2 threads or memory locations). To quote an earlier post of mine:

In terms of shared-memory threading concurrency, Send and Sync, and the distinction between &T and &Mutex<T> and &mut T, were a revelation when I first learned them. It was a principled approach to shared-memory threading, with Send/Sync banning nearly all of the confusing and buggy entangled-state codebases I've seen and continue to see in C++ (much to my frustration and exasperation), and &Mutex<T> providing a cleaner alternative design (there's an excellent article on its design at http://cliffle.com/blog/rust-mutexes/).

My favorite simple concurrent data structure is https://docs.rs/triple_buffer/latest/triple_buffer/struct.Tr.... It beautifully demonstrates how you can achieve principled shared mutability, by defining two "handle" types (living on different threads), each carrying thread-local state (not TLS) and a pointer to shared memory, and only allowing each handle to access shared memory in a particular way. This statically prevents one thread from calling a method intended to run on another thread, or accessing fields local to another thread (since the methods and fields now live on the other handle). It also demonstrates the complexity of reasoning about lock-free algorithms (https://github.com/HadrienG2/triple-buffer/issues/14).

I find that writing C++ code the Rust way eliminates data races practically as effectively as writing Rust code upfront, but C++ makes the Rust way of thread-safe code extra work (no Mutex<T> unless you make one yourself, and you have to simulate &(T: Sync) yourself using T const* coupled with mutable atomic/mutex fields), whereas the happy path of threaded C++ (raw non-Arc pointers to shared mutable memory) leads to pervasive data races caused by missing or incorrect mutex locking or atomic synchronization.

Payloads All The Things: Useful payloads, bypass for web security and pentest
For the same reason that I, a white English-speaking person, am not going to be able to fool a British old-money old-boys club that I have the same cultural background that they do.
This is one of the most discriminatory posts I have ever read in this site and that's saying something.
The linked paper quotes "2.96 lakhs manuscripts (2.61 Crore Pages)" which works out to an average of about 88 pages per manuscript. I imagine one "page" (folio) of a (usually) palm-leaf manuscript is probably about half a printed page's worth of material, so maybe each manuscript on average is the equivalent of a 50-page printed book.

(Again, note that 10 or 30 million manuscripts is probably fewer works: the quoted 30000 manuscripts <-> 9000 works relationship for astronomy/mathematics may not hold across the entire manuscript corpus. Also, for comparison, both the Library of Congress and the British Library seem to have on the order of tens of millions of books, and Harvard's massive Widener Library has 3.5 million books.)

I'm not sure I understand the remark about "a cultural tradition": surely it's just as much the case for "Western culture", or even say "French culture", that a given person could have read only a small fraction of the works. It does not mean there isn't a French tradition or whatever. The intended meaning is just that from the (pre-modern) Indian "world" or "sphere" or whatever, there are those many manuscripts, many of them uncatalogued, let alone studied/digitized/edited/published/translated.
From what I've seen of the coverage, that doesn't quite seem true for the F150. It has decades of name recognition built up and lots of buzz going on for it already. The F150 may be the first real ICE>EV mega crossover thst happens.

There is no way to have consensus on the OS because there isn't a Linux OS, Linux is just a kernel.

Each Linux distribution is a different OS based on the same kernel.

And if you look very close to each community, built around each distribution, they indeed have consensus.
They’re saying that since the F150 EV is sold out until two+ years from now they don’t need to do any of that stuff.

And they’re pissed at dealers doing markups I bet.

so the rights and freedoms are only protecting citizens from government oppression... if a private company does it, then it's fine cuz corporations are also free people.

they're free people who somehow are getting to oppress and censor individual humans (otherwise the corporation is who is being oppressed), but let's pretend that we can punish them by "taking our dollars elsewhere" such that it's our own fault

IMO, tracing this towards the root, I find along the way the grand system of royalties and other kinds of rent schemes. Nobody cares cuz we prefer the promise (for the majority is a promise) that we can come up with something great to make it BIG and then get to live from rent or other kinds of royalty payments
