It's illegal but companies will figure out a way to work around it. Why can't they just require your authorization as part of getting insurance? You might notice lots of services require you to give up certain privacy rights. I don't want the phone company to sell my location data, I don't want apps on my phone to sell my location data. There are all these tenuous yet successful ways where your right to opt out is overcome. I'm happy to click in boxes in apps, I've done it lots of times, I turn off location history when possible. But because I carry a phone I believe it's certain that some apps somewhere are storing my location. Same for having a recent car with a data modem in it. And then there are license plate readers. I want to disallow all of these things, but the battle is basically lots as far as I can tell.
I wonder how much of this correlates to being raised without a father in the home.

The pink/blue thing is low hanging fruit because it’s (at least apparently) obvious that we don’t have any biological predisposition towards sex-based color choices. Also, I’m not aware of any culture that’s free from western influence that has similar color norms.

But most other norms are more complicated. So the idea of the man as a physically strong provider - it’s not universal but it’s extremely common across the world.
I don't think QSBS has anything to do with founder titles specifically, but I'd love to be corrected. Anyone who with stock that is QSBS eligible gets the exemption, whether they are a founder, investor, employee, etc, and it's more about the eligibility (ie you paid for the stock, you didn't acquire it on a secondary transaction, the business was <50M, etc). Whether your title is founder or not doesn't really matter.
It's easy to miss but it is/was absolutely possible to decline creating a Microsoft account when installing Windows 10.
Well after using TestDisk and PhotoRec, not being happy with the results, I used Recuva and I now have over 90% of the data back with the correct directory structure. So for anyone reading this thread, I can't update the original post, but this is the answer. It's a GUI, it's super simple to use and it recovered files and folders better than any other free tool.
Alright, then I also aspire to own the large homes and fly private jets all over the world necessary to affect change.
There is Hashicorp Secrets Management which I haven't used, but might be a solution you're looking for.

Active Directory is Microsoft's LDAP[1] server offering. Eventually it got more features and is used by firms to enforce company wide (or group wide) rules like "Every computer must lock after 5min of inactivity" or "Adobe Acrobat must be installed in all computers".

Azure Active Directory is the cloud version of Active Diretory. It has some extra features compared to on prem AD (MFA, SSO with 3rd paty apps...) but the whole endpoint management part was moved to another product (Microsoft Endpoint Manager).

The reason so many companies have an AAD tenant is it is set up automatically when you configure Microsoft 365.

Most of them heavily favor "soft skills" a few years in. You're not getting into middle management right off the bat without being given a priority lane (read: network / family favor). Graphic design is years of grunt work and pays shoddily. Marketing and sales aren't remotely about "cooperation and communication" as much as you claim they are. The only things remaining are speech pathology, attorneys and real estate agents, for which I have no anecdotal experience nor knowledge, and can only infer real estate agents behave similarly to sales.

Ultimately the point still stands. "Cooperation and communication" are not the super valued soft skills you claim they are in the initial years, which is about the only period women outperform men in earnings. Afterwards, women are left behind in the dust as a whole.

It's blatantly obvious there's more going on here than "women are better in the post-modern labor market".
It is because you as the author can't see how it looks from the outside. There is a smugness[1], and a characterization of the staff as cogs in a machine that you were able to manipulate like cogs in your experiment.

How did you "stop it from working"? You even admit "they didn't mind".

If anything, what you really showed is that your analogy, while interesting and amusing, has limited accuracy. The concept of a state machines is precisely that, about machines. Not humans. The human staff took notice of the unexpected flow, externally manifest their on-the-fly adaptive mental processing of it on their faces, and then adapted. The restaurant didn't devolve into chaos.

The staff didn't freeze and lie down on the floor like driverless cars are doing on the streets[2]. The fact that automation of anything complex and unpredictable as driving isn't built on anything even vaguely akin to a state machine is telling. That would lead to disaster.

In other words, you didn't break anything at all. It was your analogy that got broken.

[1]: You display this smugness even in your reply, "Language is weird. <fx: shrug />". Just sayin. As an writer who posted his work on HN himself looking for feedback should humbly listen to negative reactions as much as if not more so than seek to bask in admiration and success.

There's good advice for an individual and good advice for a society, and as a young person it's hard to tell these things apart.

Good for society: People should not be harassed or mugged when they walk at night. Good advice for an individual: Stay aware of your surroundings and make situational choices about your clothes and behavior.

Good for society: Men should also express their feelings, including their bad ones. Good for individuals: Know who is safe to express your feelings to, and who is not.

There was a big revelation that maybe we should try to improve society instead of all the victim blaming of the 70s-90s. I think it's great that we focus on perpetrators more than victims, but we forgot to tell individuals that they still live in a imperfect world, and that even though it's not their fault when they get targeted, they could still take action to protect themselves while waiting for society to improve.
this article ignores the elephant in the room, boys are being ignored in the education system, while only focusing on girls, this can have many problems for boys when when they grow up
Where are the cultures that didn't hammer that into men?

Cultures and societies are subject to the same kind of natural selection as individuals and species. Cultures that are self sustaining, defensible, and expansionary are the ones that win out in the end.

> anything to dispel that notion makes your value plummet
The disgusting thing is that if one's value does plummet, that serves as a blank check for the partner to harm the relationship as a passive-aggressive feedback mechanism to discourage subsequent behavior like it, be that withdrawal, or avoidance, or picking fights over inconsequential things

the devalue phase of an unhealthy narcissistic relationship is not representative of most healthy relationships. a healthy compassion based relationship would see a value plummet met with support.

I hate that I speak from experience on the matter.
Cool! The numbers are not that accurate though :’) That’s probably an issue with the sensors and not the software.
> I'm under extreme pressure to hire and promote female, lgbt, or poc developers

Out of curiosity; how would lgbt developers be identified in this case? Since sexual orientation is not visible per se and I guess you cannot ask, is one just looking for specific patterns of behavior or dressing etc?

There are absolutely intrinsic differences between men and women.

I think it is a valid question if men have gender specific challenges they face in modern society, economies, and cultures.

It is important to remember that the purpose of society is to serve men and women, not the other way around. If there is a problem, we should look at society with a critical lens to see if there are areas to reform to create a better fit.

Sure, men are probably always going to commit murder at a higher rate. That said, if men are depressed due to a lack of competitive and physical outlets, that is something worth consideration.
Scout for positions which will excite you, and scour job boards for positions relative to your expertise. So many people in mismatched jobs because 'it's all that was available' but it may be the case they didn't look hard enough. We are spoiled for choice these days with positions, and some are even fully remote so you don't have to relocate.
The sentence they are most likely talking about:

> It was apparent on the faces of the staff that this was most unexpected ... members of the public weren't supposed to know how the system worked ... how could I possibly have known ?!?

Implies that you know more (about the system) than the public. The problem is you are assuming you know why the waiters were shocked. You also don't need the last sentence, it's implied by the first two. Here's an alternative version:

> it seemed like the waiters were shocked. I'd wager that the general public wasn't supposed to know how the system worked
While I agree with the suggested rules, the thought process in this article has a major flaw:

It assumes all players are rational.

In Russia's case, this might not be the case. They don't necessarily want the best outcome for them. They want to show the rest of the world who's boss, or die trying.
I'm a ux designer, as well as a photographer and keen with data curation. I believe that currently there is nothing like this and in the past I tried to design my vision for this kind of product. I'd happy to design and build if someone with technical skills can help me with the tech stack.
> Her treatment of you is absolutely disgusting

I mean, this is par for the course for nearly every married man in the West, myself included. We are objectified as wallets, we are treated very poorly, and when they inevitably leave to "find myself", they collect 50% of the assets we've earned and saved, and we collect 50% of the debts they've racked up in their instagram-influenced spending.

You can characterize the situation as "disgusting", but it's reality for millions of us.

Reality doesn't care about our moral judgements. It is what it is. The best we can do is attempt to educate our sons on the risks inherent in contractually obligating oneself to people who hate you.
Maybe because scripting languages are very pleasant to use in backends. Few things in web development beat the joy of changing a single line, pushing the affected file, and (usually) seeing it take effect immediately. I've developed websites in .Net and doing a tiny change becomes a big chore of serious business.

Surely there are critical web applications that need compiled code and scalability, but hobby projects benefit from the accessibility interpreted languages provide. Maybe if it becomes popular the effort of porting it to a safer and more performant platform would be worth it.
But then it's a movement by a minority of women who profess to speak for a majority of which the demonstrably do not represent
I’ve had a horrible time testing an app using a web socket backend. Cypress tests take forever to run, fail randomly due to race conditions, and websocket responses are annoying to mock.
You get Intune (which is called Microsoft Endpoint Manager now) and AAD P1 for all users.

The base use cases are "I want my users to be able to login in MS 365 from company managed devices". and "I want to manage my company's devices".
Most people aren't offended when someone accidently uses the wrong pronoun. They do get offended when people purposefully use the wrong pronoun to intentionally offend. Pretending that those are the same thing is part of the problem.
>...it's entirely their fault. They don't have the motivation...

I think this is a leap, or maybe we have different ideas about motivation. Seems to me motivation and direction exist at the interface of an individual and their environment. Sometimes forming over the course of a lifetime, and sometimes changing with the wind, but always connected to the environment.
"Application Data" and "Program Files" were chosen for Windows 95 as a safety valve for programs that were upgraded to work with long files but might still be making assumptions such as filenames won't have a space. It would cause them to fail early so those bugs could be fixed.

But it also made the 250 character path limit much easier to reach. When the NT unification happened with 2000/XP the shorter AppData was used with "Application Data" remaining as a junction point to the roaming profile for compatibility.
You can't build a hip start up around it and get millions of VC money. Because of the APGL you'd have to open source your service. Something the typical unicorn startup isn't too keen on. Taking community software: yes. Building a for profit product around it: yes. Giving back to the community: lol no.
So many good insights in this article. I haven't encountered such coherent language covering the macro forces driving the Bitcoin mining scene until now.

> Bitcoin miners are in the business of bidding electronics depreciation and electricity consumption against each other to win a tournament in generating random numbers with mystical properties. From this tournament arises a mediocre transaction processing network and a speculative asset. You get more of the speculative asset if you’re the global highest bidder in electricity used in generating random numbers and, hence, the huge overlap in professional Bitcoin miners and people with deep expertise in quirks of the power generation market.
This applies for most things though. For example, when I got hired at my current place, I didn't know anything about the domain. The more I've learned about the domain the better code I write. Knowing the domain allows me to make informed decisions, discover potential issues etc, rather than just blindly follow some spec.
I say value to mean "status," but for either word, I fully agree.

Something's profoundly wrong when people put so much importance on what is an externally mediated measure. I don't know what it points to other than a sort of spiritual void, but the status game is one you are statistically almost guaranteed to lose.

It is the thing I hate most about my 30s and 40s: the utter seriousness with which status is regarded.
I can only speak for myself, although I would say I was pretty average as far as people who finished the school. My class had a fifty percent drop rate. Two people killed themselves that year. My good friend was the “petty officer of the watch” and found one of the people that jumped off of their second story common area balcony head first. The housing areas were named after ships so we made gallows humor jokes about them being in the xx diving squad. The school had zero cheating, a very fast pace, and very specific grading requirements. This led to a grade meritocracy that seemed gaussian in nature, distributed around a very specific skill set centered around quickly testing. Some people easily skated by. Others struggled. Some from both groups failed out. I think that seeing people be put into a meat grinder like that was more than I was prepared for. I believed in some kind of justice in the world, or at least in the man-made systems we created but didn’t encounter that. There is also the chance that everyone goes through experiences that change their outlook on life, but that was my lived experience. If you are interested there is a book that was passed around that tells it better: https://www.swm1.com/life%20in%20the%20nuclear%20navy.pdf I didn’t write it but it was pretty accurate and really funny IIRC.

Did you not see where I said they censored me? I disagreed with a prominent Gab user and posted something that was, by their criteria, “left wing” and I was banned. That is 100% censorship by the criteria he established. How are they not catering to white supremacists etc. if they are banning people for disagreeing? Weren’t they started in order to cater to that demographic as well?

I was also banned from Twitter, and I’m not out crying about it as nothing of value was really lost there either.

> I'm retrospect, what most bothered me was probably the inversion of
caregiving burden between a parent and a young child.

Sorry for going off-thread a little, as I appreciate the subject here
is men experiencing negative behaviours when showing vulnerability.

But I wrote about the issue of "inversion of caregiving" (good compact
phrase) in Digital Vegan in respect to technology.

It's become perfectly acceptable for parents/adults to lionise the
supposed skills of children around tech. They say things like: "Oh
well kids just instinctively know about technology don't they", or
feel perfectly happy recounting with a laugh how "My five year old has
to show me how to use the TV remote".

If adults are too lazy or stupid to understand any technology and its
attendant risks, handing it to children under their care is neglect.

I think this is part of a wider problem of shrugging abdication of
agency under condition of "convenience" worship.
> For a 200-metre section, Dr Lauer calculates, there is about one chance in a trillion that it is duplicated anywhere on the 2.3bn kilometres of track currently laid around the world.

Uh, isn’t this the wrong calculation though? We don’t care about the chance of collision between a particular section and any other section, we care about the chance that any pair of sections collide. Birthday paradox stuff.
>It's important to note there are some folks who may be more at risk of a vitamin B12 deficiency than others, including those on plant-based diets, Kamitaki said.

This fact should be stated more loudly, given how many people believe that plant-based is healthy (as opposed to merely ethical).
My personal experience with riding in 'contraflow' bike lanes is they are often very handy, but can get unpleasant where they intersect with car (or even bike) traffic that's flowing normally. I'd generally rather ride in a protected bike lane (with a curb/berm between the car lanes and the bike, or even bigger barriers like planters or parked cars).
I really like emacs, and I want to use it. I really loved the way I could mix my thoughts and tasks in org and have an agenda view that shows me a todo list. However, I spend so much time without a computer that it doesn’t make sense for me to use org mode. I’ve tried a mobile app for org mode but it didn’t work as well for me as a task tracker that has a mobile app. How are others in this situation working with org?
We participate in the search for truth & meaning. Collaboratively. We share our ideas & open ourselves & our motions to counterideas & augmentations/follow-ons. Participating in the public sphere of thought is amazing.

Our impact may be limited in scale of how many people we touch, but touching a few people a bit feels enormously real, and happens some. We ourselves get to hear feedback, so valuable for understanding ourselves & the world. It is enormously satisfying to participate & engage in truth & meaning diepectics, and there's always the potential for iseas to be referenced & resurface & come back. I take great joy in finding other previous related topics & discussions, in connecting dots. Since everything is on web.archive.org, our positions & views might perhaos inform & illuminate in the future. Being in public, acting in public, is amazing.
Vulkan works on Windows too though, so you can still write for Windows only, get support for both platforms through proton, and use Vulkan.

And as a bonus you then work on Android if you do a bit of porting work later on, which can now support desktop shading models with Vulkan, while with a sufficiently old Direct X it may only let you more easily target Windows Phone...

"What people call "love" it's just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard, then it slowly fades, leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. I did it, your parents are gonna do it, break the cycle Morty, focus on science."

The harsh reality of life is that all relationships are necessarily about value transference. If we're not stronger together than we are apart, then what the hell are we doing together. If you're sucking more value out of me than you're giving back, then you're a parasite and I'd be better off without you.

If you're not doing the calculation of whether a relationship is and will continue to be mutually beneficial, you're almost certainly going to become a host for a parasite.
Well it's a spectrum.

If someone's opening up about something truly traumatic or difficult, they get all my attention and respect.

But if I feel like they're being a cry-baby (e.g. being hurt by words rather than their meaning, complaining with a plank in their eye, complaining without making efforts, being dramatic over a small difficulty/fear/etc., not pushing their limits, etc.) I cannot but feel repulsed.

Edit: as for the why, I guess because as men I think we should always strive to improve, face the abyss, and overcome dragons on a frequent basis. If someone cannot overcome the tiniest of dragon eggs, they seem weak and not worth my time. It's the antithesis of someone I want to emulate or associate with.
