Cyclists and runners like paying monthly for fitness apps with a social networking component so it’s not a completely dumb idea. I enjoy paying for Strava for example and to be honest don’t need any new features. They just need to keep it working as it is.
Oh, I'm sure violations happen all the time. But I very much doubt such violations primarily benefit minorities. There's a reason these laws exist, after all. Further, "blatantly violating" these laws as a publicly traded company, to game ESG funds seems like a poor risk:reward gamble.
Specifically, in this case, why isn't it?
Yeah, I bet one somewhere has it, but most just flash-when-chirp which is kinda annoying:

This alarm has a low/missing battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm to “chirp’” approximately every 30 - 40 seconds for a minimum of seven (7) days when the battery gets low. The chirp will be accompanied by a flash of the Safety Light. Replace both bat- teries when this condition occurs.

Some of the newer ones come with a built-in Lithium battery that supposedly is good for 10 years.
I discovered that if someone tries to do something that has abstractions and multiple branches (not in a Git way) and tries to put everything in his head -- will be fail.
So my solution for that cases is: take notes, create flow diagrams, mindmaps, anything you feel good with and you'll see it clarify.

Of course some tasks are bored and we don't want to do so we loose focus that doesn't mean mental ability.

> Do you have an example? Most languages I've seen that do this seem to be deriving gendered word variants from the pronoun, at least as far as I can tell with my very limited experience.

That's a weird way to put it. Words have grammatical gender, in some languages like Spanish there are articles like "el" or "la" that go with that, but in other languages like Russian there's no article.

For things in Spanish the grammatical gender is fixed. Eg, a window is always a feminine word. For cats it of course depends on the cat.

You're not matching the word to the article, but the other way around. "ventana" is a feminine word, so there's always a "la" before it.

> Is there ever a scenario where, "el gata" would be correct in Spanish?

Not in that specific case, but there are rare nouns where both are valid, eg "el mar" and "la mar", and sometimes with a subtly different meaning used for poetic effect.
> "gender identity" which, insofar as the concept is coherent, appears to be fully pseudoscientific.

"gender identity" as used in psychology and sociology is a reflection of phenomena occurring in the real world. The existence of trans people and their reported experience is de-facto scientific evidence of gender identity as a concept. There are of course disagreements and mutually exclusive theories but we don't call physics psuedoscience because string theory and quantum theory are incompatible*, we just acknowledge that we don't have enough evidence to unify our understanding of the concept yet. All of this is of course made more complicated by culture as a moving target but the fundamental point stands.

> There are probably ways to talk about gender coherently, in terms of expression, presentation, stereotypes, etc.

people are out there doing it, they just use specific terms rather than general ones because our previous conception of "gender" is too broad to reflect our understanding as it has been updated by evidence.

Don't think production floor, think tool room. Every production floor has a bunch of machines that are absolutely not very precise, with an extremely precise insert. The use that insert to make a widget. Over and over and over again. But, there has to be a room in the back of the production floor, isolated from all that, where you make the insert. That's where 3d printers do their work- not the production floor. Because at scale, it almost never makes sense to make things with 3d printers (or ultra-precise CNCs, etc).

Very cool. I switched to cloudflare tunnels from ngrok a while back after having some issues with ngrok.

However, CF Tunnels were far from ergonomic or easy to use ( https://www.maxcantor.com/blog/2021-10-15-ngrok-to-cloudflar... ).

I'd love a simple tool that fills the gap and I think this is it.
To my knowledge, Naughty Dog have never fully implemented a game in a Lisp. They used it and custom languages written in Racket as scripting and automation tools.

The game posted here appears to be written in Common Lisp from the engine up.

No, the instructions give a specific list of qualifying relations. They only give examples for the last one, which is a descendant of any of the earlier-listed ones. Except for that last one, “foster child” and “stepchild”, they all use gender paired terms (“brother, sister”, “half brother, half sister”, “son, daughter”, etc.)

I've often considered a CNC Mill though. A huge variety of plastics are readily available from McMaster-Carr of varying machining qualities (Acrylics are best for Laser cutters, but you can get extruded Nylon, Cast Nylon, extruded ABS, etc. etc.). There's also a wide variety of cheap woods available.

This guide focuses on Urethane Casting, which is yet another set of plastics you can work with.

-----------

I've worked with all of these plastic technologies and materials, not necessarily in my lab but in various Makerspaces. Its all easy enough, and "safe enough" to work with.

Obviously, even woodworking equipment can chop off your limbs. So you should go in with a degree of woodworking training and/or study. But there's plenty of woodworking classes available at community colleges everywhere. Take one of those and you _should_ be set for wood/plastic level cutting tools (like a CNC Mill).

------

Taking the next step into metalworking... ugggh. I know people who take that step, but it is another level of safety / study above and beyond wood/plastics. I'm happy with my woodworking level of knowledge (and its incredibly practical, especially if you're a homeowner).

Just published. Abstract:

Suppose you had two choices when chatting with your friends. The first will give you a great messaging experience, but you’ll need to sign up for a new app. The second requires no sign-up, but sometimes fails to deliver messages; sends tiny, blurry photos and videos; only works on your phone; confuses all your friends; and offers no privacy whatsoever.

That choice is real. And if you’re like most people in the US (and millions of others worldwide), you choose that second option every day by using SMS.
I suspect the problem is one of people mis-understanding the complex rules for claiming dependents. In decades past, the term "child" was actually allowed by tax software approved for IRS filing, but presumably too many people thought that meant any child they happened to have some financial relationship to, rather than the very specific relations required by tax law. By requiring more specific terms, it made it harder for people to mis-claim children as dependents.
I can't speak to what the OP is referring to, though I have seen some rumors that Meta is supposedly hiring again, and on LinkedIn I continue to see openings at Stripe, Robinhood, and Zillow despite their high-profile layoffs. I do remember in early 2020 tech companies doing layoffs, only to be hiring again several months later. Patreon stands out in my mind.
Not only building. Also tinkering, using, testing out of curiosity, etc. There are around ~30 million software developers worldwide today (source: googled it). Around ~7 million of them are registered users of Github (source: googled it). 1M+ seems likely to me.

I always check "other" if "Caucasian" is the closest choice to my race. Then I put "American". I'm certainly not Irish like my paternal grandmother, nor Italian like my paternal grandfather, nor a Polish Jew like my maternal grandparents, and none of those are "Caucasian". I'd probably qualify for "White" but most of the racists who care don't traditionally consider any of the groups that my heritage is from "White". I'm an American by race, from European settler descent, and a United States citizen by nationality.

Its even more amazing when you really sit down and think about all of the systems (many highly resistant to change like aircraft navigation systems) that all connect and utilize this service.

My company did this. It seems largely an accounting trick to get time off the books, and it simplifies employees across different states. Some states vacation time is an earned benefit that needs paid out in cash other states it's not. Those who cash out vacation can be financially impacted but companies do have an interest in making sure employees do take time away from work from time to time.

Some companies could be abusive with this not approving vacation at similar levels to before. That's always a risky position and impossible to tell from the outside. I know my personal experience when we switched to, flex time off they call it, It gave me an incentive to actively use my vacation as I tend to not to use it prior. The years since we've changed I routinely take 6 to 8 weeks off each year without issue. This is more than double the time off I was allowed under the accrued plan.
Do you have examples of wordy US signs that are only symbolic in the EU system? All of the ones I see on the article are either city names or pedestrian signs with complex instructions that I don't think could be conveyed effectively in only symbolic form.

The ones I can think of that are words only that might have a better symbolic notation are Dead End, No Outlet, and No Passing Zone.

You quote the Cornerstone Speech correctly, which was a post-hoc rationalization, a propaganda effort to encourage millions of fighting age men to lay down their lives for an economic system that was based on slavery which, I've already proven, was not an essentially racist institution.
Let's take OPs story as an example. This is a thread in response to "Why Fortran is a scientific powerhouse." Here is that exact story.

---

The best software engineer I ever worked with, whom I'll call Jessica, ended up working in Fortran after we parted ways. She had a Ph.D. from Harvard in Computer Science and we met at a research lab at Harvard Medical School. Interestingly, both of Jessica's parents as well as her uncle were professors of Computer Science at top schools. By the time she was 18 years old Jessica had a dozen years of programming experience under her belt.

On one occasion she was on a team that was collaborating with a team from MIT that had contributed some software to the project that Jessica disapproved of. So, one weekend, Jessica entirely re-wrote the software that the MIT team had contributed. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a firing offense because she had humiliated the collaborators.

(One thing to note about Jessica is that she was on the spectrum -- as smart as they come, but not good at reading social and political situations.)

Jessica was not out of a job for long, however -- she was fired in the morning and by that afternoon she had accepted a job with a proprietary trading desk on Wall Street (she had a connection). Her salary at least doubled.

A year after that incident Jessica called me up and asked me to come down and join her at the prop trading desk, so I did. We had a good ride until the 2008 financial crisis and then our entire division (several prop trading desks) was fired on Jan 2nd, 2009.

It was difficult to get a job on Wall Street in early 2009 because everyone was laying people off and going belly up. But Jessica immediately landed a $400,000/year job with an options trading house. When we were catching up over coffee a few months later she mentioned to me that one of her projects was designing a trading system that needed to solve 500,000 differential equations per second. I just wished her luck and thanked God that I had moved into coaching the LSAT instead.

Unfortunately, Jessica only lasted about 18 months at the options trading house -- she had a disagreement with another engineer about the best way to implement parallel processing for a certain situation and Jessica was not one to give an inch when she thought she was right. So she got fired.
The conclusion that Jessica drew from this was that she never again wanted to work with someone who did not have a Ph.D., so she moved to a division of NASA that was doing research on how to model the melting of glaciers, and which is apparently a space that is full of people with Ph.Ds.

It turns out that Fortran is the best tool for modeling glaciers, so Jessica ended up doing heavy mathematical programming in Fortran. As far as I know, this is what she is still working on.

In removing the dead-naming and misgendering, did I reduce the usefulness of this story in any way, as a response to "Why Fortran is a scientific powerhouse"? No.

You might ask why I didn't remove the bit about "being on the spectrum". I left this is because, as an Autistic person myself, I too suffer such discrimination in the workplace.

As somebody trying to get into mechanical engineering while living in a small urban apartment, this has been an incredible resource... not that I've made much progress along the lines it describes though.

It's tough to plan a path toward growth in these skills without sustaining inordinate expenses at each step. I can't afford to become afflicted with Gear Acquisition Syndrome. I've come close to dropping huge sums of cash on tools before discovering, at the last minute, critical reasons that they could not do what I need for the designs I have in mind. Maybe I'll visit a makerspace? Ah, but every one in my area appears to have gone defunct since Covid year zero.

So the journey up to this point has been:

- A lot of reading: not just faffing around with hobbyist blogspam -- full-on MechE textbooks, learning what really goes into engineering schematic diagrams, all that good stuff

- Getting back up to speed with the pencil-on-paper geometry and math skills I've lost after years of doing all my intellectual work in digital form (at least I can still draw a freehand circle)

- Proto-proto-prototyping: just making some physical objects roughly of the same geometry as what I've designed -- whittling them out of wood, sculpting them out of polymer clay

- Hacking together janky tools: trying to make a crappy mini lathe out of Meccano-clone parts, trying to make a crappy mini lathe out of an electric drill, just to get a basic feel for what's involved

- Apologizing to my wife for all this weird scary stuff in the corner of the apartment

I was a CS major. The only hands-on physical engineering I did in college was cooking a single-transistor chip in a freshman applied physics lab. Basically I feel like someone who has studied everything about the physics of bicycles but has never ridden one. I'm really struggling on how to proceed.
Often, in the US, collection of gender and other personal data is to meet various federal requirements for compliance, funding, etc.

That speech is just one of many. But anyway, MLK was at the forefront of anti-racism 60 years ago; it would be more alarming if there weren't a gap between him and the current vanguard.

You seem to be extrapolating a lot from a single turn of phrase but the fact remains that while Apple's kernel is satisfactory, it's not really considered best of bread in anything other than maybe dtrace support.

> What if it’s asking about their sex rather than their gender identity?

Legal sex (which is really ascribed gender, and starts out as assigned gender at birth) has the exact same problem as gender identity here. As does assigned gender at birth itself (since there are people for whom that is neither male nor female as legally recorded.)

But given the mix of gendered and non-gendered terms in the instruction, its just a product of the fact that both law, and even more the bureaucratic processes and documents supporting its application, is very much not DRY, so “we recognize the existence of non-binary gender” isn’t a point change to the “gender” module of the legal system, rather it requires changes throughout a “code base” that is giant, and has no version control or test suite.
I'm not the GP, but the rebuttal to your point about interest rates is that it is not about using cash vs debt. GP was making the point that interest rates affect NPV calculations ie future cash flows of the company have to be discounted at a higher rate

It's been extremely rewarding to build Vivid from the ground up. Current code generation tools are incomplete. As of right now, AI can't generate the exact code you're looking for, but it can get halfway — producing layouts and templates. However, generated code on an IDE takes time to grasp. Especially frontend code. It's way harder to visualize a series of HTML elements and css rules than to understand the output of a few well-named python functions. Here's where Vivid comes in. Vivid not only lets you generate AI code. It's wired to your app so you can immediately see what the code renders and edit its styles. All the edits are done in browser (through a code editor and command palette) and are written to your file system. Give it a try, and let me know what excites you the most!
What upsets me is that I was bullied my whole life for being gay and feminine. There were even a few times growing up where my teachers bullied me for not being "man" enough including PE teachers putting me in girls groups and teachers joking to the class that I don't need Maths because I'll probably be hairdresser anyway.

I'm not gay though. I'm just kinda weird, which I'm fine with even if others aren't. I think I'm just a guy who sometimes likes to wear a bit of makeup (think Fall Out Boy, not cross-dressing) and is straight, but also kinda asexual, I guess.

It's sad though because although I identify as a straight male and have spend my entire life being abused for my gender and sexuality, I now have the privilege(?) of being discriminated against in the workplace. Growing up my parents told me it was just school, but it's not, people just suck.

I learnt to handle the name calling though. Those who were badly bullied can probably relate, you have to grow a thick skin just to survive emotionally. But knowing employers might discriminate against you is different because you have no power.
