I can't think of how we ensure that men and women have the same exact outcomes without taking away their freedom of choice or enforcing equal pay regardless of time worked.

Are there any societies out there that could not accept the inequality in earnings and successfully figured out a solution that felt both liberal and fair? It feels like you just can't get an egalitarian utopia without the government setting hard limits on how much or how little each person can work.

Seems like getting 100% parity would be mostly unsolvable, given human nature, unless we were to replace those workers with computers.
Well, Tor is really slow to be honest, I think that’s where OHTTP will shine.
I think space based solar is probably the way to go. Starship will make launch so cheap it’ll be worth getting the panels into perpetual sunlight.
Borders are now settled once and for all

Not necessarily. For example, The Netherlands and Belgium exchanged parts of lands in 2017 to make their border align again with the Meuse river: https://nos.nl/artikel/2112869-nederland-krijgt-belgisch-sch...

For context: the border originally followed the flow of the river, but a few decades earlier the river was straigthened by dredging to enhance the traffic on the river; the border was left as-is though, leaving both countries with hard-to-reach peninsulas on the "wrong" side of the river.
This trivializes the meaning of "controversial" in the context of science, at least, and at the same time places Wikipedia on a level of authority I'm unconvinced is justified. I'm sure there are Wikipedia articles suggesting that climate change is "controversial", too: that doesn't mean it is.
If you are not limited by memory and cpu sure.
Glad to hear that worked out for you, and you're probably right that it would probably help if more people did it. I'm just choosing to vote with my wallet. I purchase far less from Amazon than I did a couple years ago. Like others have mentioned, the quality is a concern in addition to the shipping delays.

But there's one demographic where women outearn men: people who are single, childless, and between the ages of 22 and 30.

Within that universe, U.S. women earn 8 percent more than men, on average, according to a new report from the research firm Reach Advisors.

Women in this group out-earn men by an even larger margin in some metro areas -- 17 percent in New York, 11 percent in San Francisco, and a high of 21 percent in Atlanta, to name a few.
Sounds like if you ban the sex workers, the pimps and punters will have nothing to do at the airbnb so its effectively the same?

I think what the other commenter meant by bean counting CEO, is that they don't prioritize resilience and quality in their operations. In Boeing's case, they deprioritized the engineering culture with intense timelines and punished people who would want to take the time to ensure quality. This led to meeting targets, higher profits and reduced costs, but increased risk.

In Southwest's case, it seems (from what I've read) that over the past two decades of CEO's, they didn't prioritize improving their backend software systems. Which seems similar to Boeing: improve profits, but increase risk.
No, no, you're thinking of the $601/month thread.
The data in the article is fairly confusing, but it seems like their conclusion is based on it basically being a wash based on Net Present Value calculations, and getting it basically being a wash (1% difference between a PA and an MD for women with their assumptions). However, they picked an expensive private medical school (Duke) for their calculations to reach that.

It also makes assumptions (i.e. that a PA would work med-school / residency-level hours during those age ranges) that feel like they're overly likely to produce the result they were hunting for.

The broader point that women on the whole tend to work fewer hours and have a wage gap later in their careers still holds, as does this mean that on average the pain of a grueling professional degree is less rewarded for women.

This article feels like it was hunting for a conclusion and played a few tricks to get there, more than anything.

> The ocean effect is a wonderful example for a "happy accident". If you load a value into the FPU as integer, and store it as floating point value, and interpret it as integer again, you get a cool pattern. Combine that with a reverse divide and you get a neat wavy effect.
Forth is a stack-based language, so it does really well on a stack-based CPU. Optimizers for common languages like C perform analysis on which values in a function are more commonly used, and want to control whether those values live in registers or RAM; register based CPU ISAs can give them more fine-grained control.

But if you're working in Forth, everything is stack ops anyway, you wouldn't benefit much from that kind of analysis, and really a stack-based CPU is going to give you the most speed because the most common operations boil down to a single instruction per.

Chuck Moore doesn't mind this because he writes literally everything in Forth. Most of us who work in other languages would mind the performance hit.
Really? In an argument about money versus food you're giving me a map denominated in dollars?
Fortunately ssh has forward secrecy, so if you are using the keys in your ssh client and don't use them after they are compromised, then your traffic remains secure. However if these keys are used in an ssh server and someone has marked those keys as trusted, potential issues remain. Unfortunately ssh does not have the PKI infrastructure of ssl to revoke keys.

But an ssh server (or any other server) should not also be used as a development environment that is pulling dependencies (if you are developing a server, then you should be using dummy keys and doing the development in a non-production environment).
This is what Feedbin does too.
So naive.
Sunrise/sunset times do vary with longitude (depending on how close you are to the centre of the timezone you 'should' be in, and also summer time), but the biggest variation is with latitude. Especially near the solstices like now.

> If you factor in opportunity cost and lost wages for school years along with compound interest then most degrees will never generate a positive ROI.

Do you have a source?

Because of a ton of confounding factors, how you are calculating opportunity cost, and a lack of what specific degrees you are eliminating from the calculation because they are high return fields it is not easy to confirm or negate your statement.
This is part of the problem with this topic: neither side talks honestly about the effect, and both sides collapse the nuances down to easily defeated straw men.

The "wage gap" has never been attributed, by any study, soley to the impacts of discrimination for equal work – though some effect is seen. For instance, the 2009 Bertrand showed that there was a 10% gap between new business school graduates, based on gender [0]. That difference never really disappears, on average, across the population [3].

However, the effect definitively widens at child birth, with women shouldering an unequal amount of caregiving responsibilities [1]. Whether married or unmarried, women with children take a hit. However, when married, even with children, men don't take a hit. Married men generally earn more than unmarried men. In fact, they generally earn more than everyone else – though this effect is shrinking. [2] Unmarried women, without children, will generally earn 90% of an unmarried, child-less male assuming equal education levels. We see a growing disparity, with unmarried, childless women overtaking unmarried, childless men in earnings due to the education gap. Eliminate educational differences, and the gap reappears.

When either side collapses the "wage gap" down to simplistic tropes like individualized gender-specific discrimination or "choices", they're generally signaling they haven't studied the topic beyond reading a few headlines.

It's way more complicated, and interesting.

Society lets people sell their bodies in more exploitative ways for less money.

The article isn't really about banning the use of Airbnbs for sex work. It's about banning people who do that work from using any Airbnb at all, for any purpose.
Other than the settings app, which I personally find badly organized but it is at least functional without any bugs for me, I've quite liked Ventura. MacOS very much gets out of the way when I'm working in it, which is 100% what I want from an OS.

Whereas if I have to use a Windows machine I end up fighting the OS because I have to grok WSL running a separete OS, multiple duplicated system controls from various decades of Windows, and ads everywhere.

MacOS still isn't perfect, and maybe it has slightly less polish than it did some years ago, but it's atleast kept pace with competition feature-wise without becoming as aggravating to use as others.

" Economic policy was also bolstered by a set of favourable circumstances, including the external depreciation of the euro, the relatively low price of oil, economic growth in the country’s main export destinations, Portugal’s ascent as a tourist destination (partly as a result of the political turmoil and instability in the Middle East) and the ECB’s accommodative monetary policy stance (which helped significantly reduce interest rates and minimise public interest outlay"

https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/portugals-econom...

"Gomes also pointed out that the biggest boost Portugal received from Europe’s recovery came via exports, with the continent taking up 75% of the country’s exports of goods and services. "

I can link stuff all day here. Increases in quality of education, massive rises in investment, Lisbon has become (again) a world class capital, and if anything, Portugal is overheated from their EU membership.

I can never get over Portugal being included in this list and it immediately disqualifies for me all subsequent criticism of the EU as badly misguided. I don’t know the other countries on the list nearly as well, my experience with Portugal makes me suspect the entire anti EU argument is a argument in search of data instead of being based on data.
xfinity TV over docsis in my area costs $111/mo ($70 TV, $28.35 Broadcast TV Fee, $13.40 Regional Sports Fee) for 125 channels (no Disney Channel) - quite a bit over the cost of YTTV at $65/mo if you can live without channels like Bloomberg Television and Gem Shopping Network. But you do get both Cartoon Network and the Disney network of channels on YTTV, when it's $20 extra on Xfinity.

The paper doesn't say that the wage gap is mostly a working gap. It says the earnings gap is mostly a working gap. In other words, both things are true:

* Women get paid $9/hr. less than men with the same level of experience (wage gap)
* Women work 11 fewer hours per week than men (working gap)

.. and the paper claims it's the second factor that is the primary cause of the earnings gap.

There's nothing there that either confirms nor refutes discrimination/sexism. Interestingly the paper states:

In our data, both the median
male and median female doctor work at least 40 hours per week in
every experience bin. Despite both being “full-time,” men and women
nonetheless work substantially different numbers of hours in our data.
The commonly used methodology of estimating earnings equations with
no controls for hours worked (apart from restricting the sample to FTFY
workers) would conclude that men’s wages are much higher relative to
women’s wages than they actually are.

In other words, the authors are saying that a naive analysis would support the (in their estimation) incorrect conclusion that the earnings gap is purely a wage gap. If that's true, and their paper takes a new step forward in disambiguating these factors, then it would be unfair to paint the previously held received wisdom as deliberate misinformation and lies.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. I didn't say and don't think she was being an asshole necessarily, or perhaps she was a little but the state massively overreacted. I'm just pointing out she wasn't careful at all.

The biggest issue with a proposal like this is that a lack of any preference given whatsoever should not count positively towards a candidate. If someone labels candidate A as +3, candidate B as -3, and doesn't label candidate C, candidate C should not be given more preference than candidate B. People will either not understand the ramifications (they might not know someone and think that "no preference" is truly no preference when in reality it's positive preference), will forget, be lazy and not fill in some candidates, etc. I don't think that's a desirable trait since it's essentially ascribing a vote which the voter did not want. Of course if you want to make -3 (on a -3 to +3 scale) the default value assigned to "no preference" votes, perhaps that would be okay.

Please don't do that. When other users vouch for the dead post, as happened in this case, we end up with a dupe and a split thread. Also, you deprive the original poster of the karma for their submission, which in the case of a new account actually makes a difference.

Instead, you should vouch for the post and hopefully other users will do the same so that it gets restored (as happened with https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34202662) or, if that fails to happen, let us know at hn@ycombinator.com and we'll fix it.

I've moved the comments thither now.
There are 2 different wage gaps that people that don't learn about get confused about. It is important to note that they answer two different questions. The first is the 80 cents one which is an aggregated measurement and better informs us about the monetary medians for career differences in men and women. But people often think this is when holding everything equal. When variables are held equal the aggregated result shrinks a lot and comes to roughly 96 cents on the dollar. But this does not account for issues like a glass ceiling or other things which are quite difficult to accurately measure. It is also important to note that while women on average make less (holding factors equivalent) that there are sectors where women make more (e.g. professorships). A great example of this is the Uber paper and has been extensively discussed on popular podcasts like Freakanomics and The Pay Gap (which goes into a lot of the nuances I'm not mentioning).
Thanks for the cite...unfortunate the referenced report by Reach Advisors wasn't linked, but the logic makes sense.
The Southwest Airlines system collapse from Dec 24 to Dec 28, 2022 is more than a case study in brittleness.

The circulation of air in the Arctic is becoming unstable. The storm that took out Southwest Airlines is one of a series of big air masses that have caused heat, flooding and freezing weather over this last year.

Five years ago, I wrote in my blog https://www.lowco2america.com/2017/10/global-air-travel-redu... "The biggest uncontrolled release of global warming gases into the stratosphere over the arctic is commercial air travel."

I feel, what the world needs is a 90% reduction in jet air travel for 10 years. We should set up at least two Picarro super precision CO2 and H2O analyzers onto two jets. We should leave the stratosphere undisturbed for 10 years. Document stratospheric CO2 and H2O and methane as these gases are absorbed into the oceans. With more instrumentation, watch the polar circulation settle down and the infrared absorbing CO2 declines and arctic winter energy release recovers.

GraphQL is doomed?
There's no technical fix for compensating verifiers; it has to be negotiated out of band. This is different from Bitcoin because the Bitcoin protocol is unambiguous, so any well-behaved node that follows it can trust that all other well-behaved nodes will accept its output as valid. By contrast, security review is inherently subjective and reasonable people will disagree, necessitating judgment calls on who to trust.

Why fix what "worked"?

For the record, I don't think that Airline software works since about 20% of flights are always late. I avoid airplanes at all cost for this reason, mainly. I once had a plane trip taking more then 24 hours when it could have taken 6h and there was no major problems like today (I ended up spending new year at the airport)... no thanks. Traveling by car would have taken about the same amount of time.

Bonnell has a branch predictor:

In-order execution does not mean that there is no branch prediction, it just means that the number of instructions speculated is much smaller.
I know I shouldn't say this but I'm grateful this happened. People treat this problem as unsolvable when it's absolutely not. Solutions like crev have existed for a long time but languages like rust and python devs never treat them as first class tools. They never bundle them with their official build tools so people don't use them and they use the flimsiest of excuses to justify not doing so.

Maybe this is the kick that lang devs needed to take dependency security seriously and finally make peer review mandatory for third party packages by default. If it doesn't, I hope we continue getting kicked in the balls until we do.
Wouldn't encourage anybody to get into sex work, but it's no one's place to tell others what they can and can't do with their body. The industry should be regulated for the safety of workers and to help root out exploitative/abusive scumbags.
> What are the chances some sort of united nations institution pays workers to both audit and prevent/harden supply chain attacks?

Zero, essentially. State actors profit massively from such systemic weaknesses, so it is not in their interest to eliminate them for the population at large (they do of course want to eliminate them for themselves, but they already have extremely strict supply chain policies so that's mostly a solved problem).

Hell, we have state-sponsored institutions working hard to actively create vulnerabilities in software that previously didn't have them. Security vulnerabilities are a tool through which power is exercised. They're not going away as long as governments have any say in it.
> Society lets people sell their bodies in more exploitative ways for less money.

Marginalizing sex work is done largely to increase the supply of labor (and thereby depress its price) for other forms of exploitation. (Making those who remain sex workers more exploitable by removing access to the resources other workers have is also a motive.)
Why not just self-sign for that? Outside of using it to test configurations or deployments, SSL seems a lot less necessary if it's just inside a LAN and all the clients are known.
We've merged the threads now.
What I do is that I do all dev work in a VM, usually dedicated to a group of related projects. There are no passwords stored in the VM and its ssh key has read-only access to repositories. The VM has write access to forks and code is merged using pull requests just like third party contributions. This setup has been working well for me, and I even created a tool to automate setting up these dev VMs which I hope to make publicly available at some point.

I don't do any heavy computations except for running test suites of various kinds, and these seem to perform the same on raw hardware as they do in the Kernel-based VMs.

The Netherlands and Germany are even in a border "conflict" about the exact way the Ems estuary is divided (DE refers to an old document, NL claims the border goes down the middle of the water).

It's not much of a problem in practice because of agreements made decades ago and there is no (or very little) actual land involved, but the borders are still technically disputed by both side.
