Their ancestors had to live there (exiled). They spent generations adapting and really it probably isn't that bad to them. If you grow up having tigers outside your door you learn to to avoid the tigers.

The human mind is a funny thing. When you're born and grow up somewhere it feels very intuitive to live there. The same reason most people don't live BFE North Dakota for the small cost of bus ticket. It just feels like home and most people don't give it much of a thought.

The way patriarchy is usually defined by feminists, women putting other women down (at least to the extent that that is because the women being put down are acting in a way that is outside of the fixed gender roles held by the women doing the putting down) is an example of patriarchy, not an effect of it.

Interesting enough, my academic background was mostly FP based, but my first heavy industry use of the terms was with the LINQ libraries. I have since had lots of experience with the more academic terms and can pretty easily translate back/forth with no problem. Except for filter. I routinely forget if it is "filter in" vs "filter out". It is easy enough to look up, but I never had that problem with LINQ's "where".

> I worry that we're now viewing all of society's interactions through a prism of demographics and privilege.

I don't see why this is something to worry about. Perhaps you mean that you worry we're now viewing all of society's interactions exclusively through a prism of demographics and privilege. That would indeed be a problem, but I don't see any reason to believe that it is actually happening. It seems to me that that make-your-own-destiny, pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps narrative is still alive and well.

Ideally we would want to keep both things in mind: people can make their own destinies but we need to respond to social dynamics that make it harder for some people to self determine than others. It's not about different rulesets, its trying to build a ruleset that achieves a certain equilibrium between giving everyone equal, unearned, social advantages and trying to maximize the aggregate social advantages conferred.
Disappointing that Lua is going down the same broken road of having limited integer types. But, then again, Lua was always about a small, simple base than correctness at all costs.

So classes in ES6 are something I have very mixed feelings about, on one hand all that is being added is syntactic sugar for what is already being done, I'd like to repeat that ES6 classes add NOTHING that isn't already being done and all it really does is pave the cowpath that is being used in places like node

Currently:

JSONParseStream.prototype = Object.create(Transform.prototype);
function JSONParseStream(options) {

Transform.call(this, options);
...
}

JSONParseStream.prototype = Object.create(Transform.prototype);

Object.defineProperty(JSONParseStream.prototype, 'constructor', {
value: JSONParseStream,
enumerable: false,
writable: true,
configurable: true
}

JSONParseStream.prototype._transform = function(chunk, encoding, cb) {
...
}

With ES6:

class JSONParseStream extends Transform {
constructor(options) {
super(options);
...
},
_transform(chunk, encoding, cb) {
...
}
}

That being said, the fact that previously you could not simply use the word class meant that despite efforts of people unused to the language (let me tell you how many half assed class libraries i've seen in code written by people who mainly code in python or java but have some web code as well), unnecessary inheritance tends to be avoided. The lack of a class keyword tends to get javascript writers to avoid inheritance for things best served by mix-ins or object literals, or whatever. I predict that adding the class keyword, while saving me some time will also cause an uptick to unnecessarily convoluted inheritance patterns as new users find they can implement all of their design patterns verbatim without thinking if they really need the ajax method, the json parser, and the url builder to all be in objects that inherit from each other.
Yes this has been my observation as well.
700 MHz CPU, 512 MB of RAM, a competent GPU - that's good enough for things like real time terrain image processing on the copter itself.
What's the rationale for adding integers? I thought the rationale for not having them was to keep the language simpler, and integers 2^53 and less can be store exactly as a (64-bit) float anyway. Is the rationale for adding them so Lua can have full support for 64-bit-wide integers and bitwise operations at that width?

There was this one time I was watched a whole bunch of old media agitprop reciting various tropes on how things should be and when I did what TV told me to do, people responded negatively! It doesn't matter if those people were also exposed to the same trope and became skeptical of it based on their own experience... or if my imitation of the trope was ham fisted...

I'm playing the devil's advocate here for the most part but surely today it does not need to be anything as intrusive as a stopwatch. You could conceivably track who gets to speak for how long and any interruptions that happen in live meetings with software running on your smartphone, and you could certainly do so in voice chat meetings. There may be a marketable product in this somewhere.

When news comes around about Telegram it typically includes the criticism of their team being hostile. I just haven't seen it though. Instead I've seen their team respond to posts with gratitude for the critique and disclosure. I think this is where I get perplexed on this topic. Though maybe I just missed a particularly hostile event.

It's just rather dodgy all the criticism. What other secure chat system of late provides the server code? Only Pond comes to mind. What other chat system provides an OSS client, Only Pond TextSecure and Telegram.

Cracking contests are either absurd or just asking for people to ridicule you. So I understand part of the animosity.

The point is that we need stopwatches (etc.) to make visible social dynamics that we would not otherwise observe, and then try to make social rules (not necessarily laws) accordingly. It's folly to simply feel our way along based on anecdotal experiences which are themselves infected with the biased sought to be measured (as well as suffering from limited data).

Nobody is proposing that the remedial social rule itself rely on a stopwatch.

Its one of the reasons. If you want more details you can check out this talk from Lua's main designer:

video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjqNK1jA77M

slides: http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/talks/ws2014.pdf

The main advantages of adding integers to Lua are:

* For some things you need 2^64 bits, not just 2^53 (file handles, crypto algorithms with bitwise operations, etc)

* Some embedded systems don't have hardware support for floating point (you could compile Lua with integers instead of double but it was very hacky)

* It simplifies the C API. There are some things in the API and various internals in the implementation that benefit from separating integers and floating point numbers.
This also works in The Netherlands.

When you use a CDN, you can use a local fallback. Note that very old/shitty browsers won't support scheme-less URLs or jQuery 2.x, although those options are more modern and preferable. You just have to make the decision based on your users.

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="js/jquery-2.1.3.min.js">\x3C/script>')</script>

US Centcom Twitter Account 'hacked by Islamic State'
A Twitter Ads Hack to Get a Twitter Interview
My theory is that gender inequality (less women than men, or vice versa) will cause the minority gender to have less of a say.

It seems supported by the article's last example:

"Professor Burris and his colleagues studied a credit union where women made up 74 percent of supervisors and 84 percent of front-line employees. Sure enough, when women spoke up there, they were more likely to be heard THAN men."
Are you sure? I think that the Android Market on 1.6 (ADP1) still works.
1) Why should we assume it's "probably impossible to solve the problem of women being harder on women"? 2) How could we solve "the problem of men being harder on women without realizing it" if, as this article illustrates, we can measure the genders' responses to one another independently?

Edit: I've been ignoring this premise for the sake of argument, but now it's time to raise an objection: Men aren't harder on other men. Both men and women are harder on women. This article itself demonstrates this. (It's more complex than just "being harder on." But, in the context of this article I take "being harder/easier on" to be short for "tending to respond negatively/positively to verbal contributions, regardless of the contribution's merit.")

I can access new-hn though I can't say whether it's due to your changes. The https redirect adds an extra step because of a click through "this site could be evil" that Websense adds--I think it stores the acceptance for the http site, but then the https redirect happens which isn't registered on the "possibly evil" click through acceptance list so it initially fails. Manually going to the https version fixes this problem, though.

Dos and Don'ts of Content Marketing: “Content Marketing Is the New SEO”
On its face, it is obvious that there are differences between males and females at all age groups. I think a core issue is when we try to pretend like males and females are the same.

In male dominated workplaces, women find it difficult to adapt to how men do things.

In female dominated schools, boys find it difficult to adapt to how girls do things. When 98.1% of pre-school and kindergarten teachers are female it's no surprise that boys are disciplined more often, disciplined more harshly and test poorer on reading and other academic achievement measures than girls. Elementary school as a whole isn't much better with 90% of teachers being female. The first 6 years of each boy's academic life is spent trying to adapt him to how girls behave and how girls learn.

Failing to adapt in such a manner leads to punishment and recommendations of holding him back until he is as mature as his younger female peers despite his academic ability.

I think you could replace the integer type with an unbounded one fairly easily. Lua is designed to have changes made and it already allows other sizes of integer and float to be used.
Would you be opposed if all browsers made Lua available for webpages?

It does not seem impossible to me to add functionality to a browser to accept some other language to run. What you're talking about is how hard it would be to convince JS developers to stop using it. But no one is talking about that.
Five New Years Resolution for Marketers
When I was in high school (quite a long time ago now), I'd try to buy 2-4 albums a month. That was an average cost of $25-$50 to listen to 20-50 new songs... some of which I enjoyed, some of which I didn't.

$10 per month to listen to almost anything is such an astounding underpricing of the value I personally derive from the service. I can hardly believe my good fortune to be alive at a time when I can pay so little to listen to so much with so little effort.
Yeah, the strength of field that would literally destroy molecules is a ridiculously loose upper bound.
This sort of slippery slope argument is precisely why I'm so anal-retentive about pointing out that the NSA programs that have been revealed thus far seem designed with a careful attention to toeing the line of various well-established legal precedents. You may not like Smith v. Maryland, but there's a big difference between the NSA following an interpretation of the law you don't like, and flouting the law entirely. And that difference is wholly salient to the question of whether the NSA would engage in conduct that's obviously illegal, such as selling private information on the black market.
