I don't think they mean parents. I think they mean peers, investors and media.
So her title says "it doesn't change a thing" and then in the body she admits that there are some differences:

Of course there are some drawbacks of being a female CEO. When you’re a woman in charge, you do have to work a bit more to get credibility and have people listen to you; it might be harder to recruit developers and make them trust you; and you will end up going to a few sales meetings where the other person is more interested in you than in your product.

There are also some pretty good advantages. It’s sometimes easier to get press coverage, and sales can happen faster. People will usually be keener on lending a hand. And I’m not even talking about all the help I got from fellow female entrepreneurs, especially when I was trying to get things off the ground.

I agree with her general sentiment that being a CEO is hard, regardless of gender. I also agree with her agenda that women need more role models of what it looks like to be a successful woman. But I don't think this kind of dismissal of the issues women have is very helpful. Being a woman does change some things. Understanding that "it has its good points and bad points" is a much, much better message than saying "it isn't any different at all" which is what the title says.
Amplitude Mobile Analytics (YC W12) is hiring engineers
Amplitude is building the world’s best mobile analytics platform. Mobile devices are the fastest growing technology ever; globally, more people own mobile devices than have electricity or running water. We empower app developers and BI teams to make the best decisions by giving them data-driven insights into their users' behaviors and needs.

We’re looking for back-end engineers to work with our dev team to develop our analytics infrastructure, as well as a front-end engineer who will make sure Amplitude’s customers can navigate our web dashboards and understand their data with ease.

We currently track billions of events every month (on par with some of the largest existing analytics companies), with the constant challenge of developing smart ways to continue scaling up. Mobile is growing like crazy, and analytics is THE most important piece of infrastructure for mobile app developers.

What differentiates us from other analytics platforms out there?

-We can scale while keeping costs low: with some smart engineering (which is where you come in), we scale with our customers at an order of magnitude less cost than the other guys.

-Analytics designed specifically for mobile: we are focused on mobile analytics, and mobile analytics ONLY. This allows us to build a best in class product when other products are working on web analytics or ad networks.

ABOUT US: Everyone says it, but we really do hire people who are not only great at their jobs, but outstanding people in general. Team members include an economics professor from Tufts, MIT Battlecode and web programming competition champions, ACM and Putnam competitors, Teach for America alumni. We have deep experience in large-scale systems and analytics from Google, Palantir, Sumo Logic, and DRW Trading. We also have diverse interests (not just tech!), with backgrounds including economics, neuroscience, solid state physics, and education.

If you want to be part of a best in class team that’s always motivating and challenging you to grow, we’d love to hear from you! Just email your resume, a quick cover letter, and any cool things you’ve made to careers@amplitude.com. Even if you’re not sure about looking for your next opportunity just yet, we’d love to chat!

THE USUAL: Like everyone else, we have great perks and benefits: competitive salary + equity, meals + snacks, great SoMa location, transit subsidies, team outings, health insurance, and so on...

Hi DanielStraight!

Great question. CodeExchange is intended to help you reformulate your query. That is, as you get results, it aims to help you change your query so the next results are closer to what you want.

Some typical use cases are finding API usage examples and algorithm implementations. This could mean finding code that invokes API methods, extends a parent class, implements an interface, implements depth first search or merge sort, etc...

Some examples:

[Looking for regular expression code]
An example may be issuing a keyword search “regular expression”, then taking the recommendation “[imports library] java.util.regex.pattern” to find code that uses this library, and then clicking on the method call “Pattern.matches” in a code result in order to return code that calls this method.

[looking for Minecraft code]
Another example may be issuing the keyword search “minecraft map” and then taking the recommendation “[keywords] world” to help disambiguate the word “map” from other meanings in Java.

[looking for merge sort code]
Yet another example could be issuing the keyword search “merge sort” and then getting empty class results. Since algorithms have logic in them (loops, if statements, etc...) you can critique the result by clicking the up arrow above “complexity” in order to get results with more logic in them.

These examples don't have to start out with keywords, however. Sometimes you are working with a team that already has libraries being used and you have to learn how to use them. To specify them up front you can use the “Advanced Search”

The search history is intended to support reissuing queries that worked in the past, to find code you need today.

Thanks for your interest! Let me know if I can answer any other questions or clarify anything. If you have time please fill out the survey on our site to help our research!

Should I have used the phrase super-fecund instead of the word 'slut'? Actually, with birth control we fool our bodies into thinking that we're mating so fecundity doesn't apply I guess.

Except that could encourage people to stay out of the right lanes -- leading to confusion or wasted lanes when trying to pass people, which happens all the time. If you closely watch a german highway, there are 2 to 3 lanes (per direction) for the most part, and the speeds are quite consistent: The rightmost lane is full of trucks going 60 mph (90-100 km/h), while the middle lane is going around 80 mph (130 km/h), which is the advised speed, or Richtgeschwindigkeit. The leftmost lane is left exclusively for passing slower cars and those going 100+ mph (160+ km/h).

Attending an accelerator on B1 visa is always a dicey proposition. On B1, you are not allowed to gainfully employed, i.e. you cannot run a company but you can conduct activities like,

a) attending meetings,
b) Solicit sales or investment
c) Make investments or purchases
d) Interview or hire staff, etc etc.

As you can see the line is very thin between whats allowed and whats not.

There's nothing to identify - it's a serum containing three monoclonal antibodies. These antibodies bind some viral proteins, preventing the virus from infecting new cells and spreading. To my knowledge there's no path from this to a vaccine, which prepares the human immune system to recognize and fight viral infection itself. Unfortunately, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are still very expensive to manufacture, distribute, and use as treatment for disease, meaning this will not broadly impact outcomes in rural Africa (barring advances in mAbs technology).
Should the feature only cater for the specific example provided?

What? No. Examples are by definition a singular instance of a general type. The vast majority of people can infer that since there is a variety of colors, a function that takes a color name as input will have to have handle a variety of color names.

The expected behaviour is actually clearer without the examples.

I disagree. Without the example, the reader might not know what a HTML color code looks like, or may need a reminder. A non-developer who's overseeing a project may mix it up with something and think of an RGB triple like (255,255,127), or expect a JSON object, or something else. Providing one (or a few) examples make it clear that the HTML color code is in fact a 6-character hexadecimal string.
Why Small-Business Lending Is Not Recovering
A loudspeaker is a term for a speaker that you traditionally think of when you think of a speaker:

speed definitely increases the severity of crashes, but i'm not convinced that it increases frequency. even so, the #1 factor leading to increased frequency of crashes is distracted driving (sorry, don't have time to look up relevant links). if it exists, the correlation of accidents with speed is likely much weaker than with distractedness.

if we really wanted to reduce motoring accidents, rather than regulating speed, we'd regulate away everything you can do in a car other than drive (radio, food, shaving, makeup, newspapers, etc.). i'd even suggest that driving fast might cause you to be less distracted because of the higher severity of a crash (would be an interesting research topic).
98% of the time to be more specific
If you drop the needless pejorative language, you get the observation from the second paragraph of the article...
Most (all?) cars have speedometers which already overstate speed of a vehicle. This is I believe because of laws which forbid speedometer to overstate shown speed (by some margin) but not understate it so if you are driving 8.5mph above the limit it's probably actually even less than that.
""linguistically speaking" words mean whatever native speakers use them to mean... the field of linguistics would be pretty boring if it were about writing down mostly-arbitrary rules for people to follow."

I'm not advocating "mostly-arbitrary rules for people to follow." Just pointing out the technical meanings of both terms. I also pointed out that these meanings are fluid and are changing. Obviously usage is subject to change, and if I came across as opposing that, I didn't mean to. I was just addressing the question implied in the parent comment.

I apologize if I gave the wrong impression.
Robotic suit gives shipyard workers super strength
Good article, but please remove the question mark from the title?
If there's a state that should win the price for speed limits that make no sense, it must be Hawaii. We have stretches of straight, extremely wide highways with no intersections and a speed limit of 40mph. Then you come to an old, narrow, and curvy road and it's 55mph. Or it could be 35mph. It's like the speed limit is set by a random number generator.
Well at the moment, I would consider Redis more useful than Varnish due to expired events. As to follow the "one caching model to rule them all" rule, how about using ngx_lua to dynamically change a static .html file with the data from Redis thus cutting out php-fpm (unless they are logged in, then requests will go directly to php-fpm)?

Or use Varnish, use Redis for expired events but with an empty value and use keyspace notifications to automatically remove the data related to that key from the database and purge Varnish.

SEO is organic part 2: link building

Emulating x86 on ARM would be trickier than emulating PPC on x86. But even if emulation did work, that would mean you would have to use an x86 browser to use Flash. You wouldn't be able to use the x86 plugin with a native browser.

In practice, that would make a huge difference in terms of Flash's market share.
I haven't played it yet, but I am curious, the variable pst seems to give the score of a piece given the square it is, independently of the position? How it that possible, am I missing something? (You only use pst to calculate the score of a move, if there is no check, checkmates or capture).

Having said that, the code is very neat and readable. Thank you for showing it here!

> what problems can software really solve?

If you are asking this, perhaps you have not spent a lot of time in industry, especially non-technical industries.

There are approximately a gazillion problems that software can solve in a business setting. Absolutely stupid amounts of goods, services, and money are processed via clunky systems that are begging for software-based improvements.

If you could follow around an arbitrary office worker, factory worker, healthcare professional, paralegal, real estate broker, or retail employee for a week, your head would be positively bursting with ideas for how software could make their businesses more efficient, and improve their employee quality of life.

Nice! I did the opposite about 2 years ago. Really wish I had bought some real estate in certain parts of Dallas but I was just starting out and didn't have the capital/guts. There are parts of Dallas that I love (lower greenville, deep ellum, oak cliff) that have really boomed these last two years.

The move to SF has been worth it, though, for my career/finances. Net was a little bit lower than what I could have been making in Dallas, but my bonus actually, fully paid out and I've gotten actually significant raises. Also, since housing costs were so high I decided to experiment with alternative living styles and I'm now actually spending less money in SF than I was in Dallas.
I'm not sure about how Tumblr might do it, but one can use a combination of ECMP and ipvs (with a consistent hash) to do the lower-layer L4 load balancing. This means that even if one of the L4 load balancers go down and the connections originally going to that L4 load balancer by the switch/router get moved to another one, the consistent hash to the L7 load balancer handling the request means the connections will not be reset (except in some interesting and less-frequent cases).

This two-stage process also allows for good health checking from the much-simpler Linux ipvs L4 load balancer servers to the more-complicated L7 load balancer servers.

Last time I tried, no. This is going from memory so I may be incorrect, but the WP emulator required some level of hardware virtualisation that VirtualBox (at least) could not offer in that nested way.
Those are issues stemming from being a founder, and possibly your parents knowing your fall back plan either doesn't exist, or is to move back in with them.

Those are not issues stemming from your identity as a person. Other groups of people, in this case women, have issues where people are utterly dismissive simply because of their membership in that group.

The challenge this adds on top of normal founder challenges is orders of magnitude greater than any challenge added to founder challenges by being yet another white male founder.

The problem is that Synology has historically not been very proactive at informing and educating their users about security threats, including very specific ones like this. A company that specializes in selling advanced network appliances to novice users and non-IT pros has a certain obligation to those users, IMHO.

PayPal has been described as "a fraud detection company that also transfers money." That's how Synology needs to think of themselves.
The trick to speed control is to set the speed limit 10-20 mph slower than you expect traffic to actually go, and never or infrequently enforce it until it exceeds +20mph. This is the M.O. for many places already.

> i think women CEOs need to take on some atypically aggressive and assertive business characteristics that are unbecoming of either sex but are typically more acceptable in society for men to step into.

I agree. I'm going to come out and say it, it's difficult for a woman to step into any kind of leadership position and do the tough things without being perceived as a "bitch".

One thing I've observed in women who might be perceived as successful in those roles is that they're able to find the right way of being in charge and overcoming those perceptions. I think it's a subtle attitude or behavior change, and it seems to be a fine line.

But I'll also say that for men, they risk being perceived as "an asshole" in much the same way. And demonstrating assertiveness and leadership, being tough when it's needed it also a similar skill. I just think that men have more societal support and a few thousand years more practice and training to figure it out.

Women have far fewer role models to pattern after.
There is some truth to that, we have more training: 14x 45min of theory school-style lessons and at least 12x 45min of practice with a certified driving instructor. Also, the minimum age to be driving on the road is 17, and you have to be accompanied by someone 21+ until you are 18.

The skills here are not legendary per se; the mean might be a bit better. The difference is that people seem to have more respect for other drivers and dangers on the road, creating more awareness overall.

But still, I think allowing skilled drivers to drive faster would do no harm to the population, if the faster people stick to the guidelines. For example: you do see the occasional snail moving in the left highway lane, but it won't be long until he is ushered away by some faster car with some furious flashes of the brights.
It was never a happy partnership, more of a relationship out of necessity.

Pearson once had a team called the "O'Reilly Killers" whose aim was to compete in highly lucrative fields and well send a hammer blow to O'Reilly's diminishing revenue per title (dropping since the dotcom bubble). It may have been more of a mindset that an actual ambition to send O'Reilly out of business but that was the team's name (the name was retired when they joined forced according to Tim).

In regard to the birth of SafariBooks, apparently the story goes that the CEO of Packt chatted to Tim O'Reilly about future of books and ebooks and suggested that an online library would be something developers would use in the future. Tim offered to split the cost and risk having thought about the product and how to bring it into life (it represented a significant risk if no one brought the service as development cos was high) but the CEO of Packt didn't like the cost and risk so Tim, forced to find other partners went to his arch-nemesis Pearson.

Pearson having made tons of money out of subscriptions to libraries and institutions instantly saw the value of the proposition and took the risk (at worst, they would be down what they could afford and O'Reilly would be at risk) and that is how apparently the two enemies became uneasy allies.

O'Reilly have not seen their revenue per title average return to pre dotcom burst levels (currently around 80-100K per book on average in revenue) but they have seen great returns on SafariBooks and they get to monetize rival content so this move signals to me that they see it as their future beyond "just" content development.

-- if you are wondering what Packt did, they made their own cheaper version of SafariBooks on their own which only featured their own books called PacktLib.
