Well, if it is permanent there would be no difference in the placebo group. Anyone who isn't allergic to acetaminophen and live in the west has taking at least a 500mg dose in their lifetime. Even if you consciously tried to avoid it, there is a good chance you were administered it before or after surgery.

"Simple exceptions should be caught using a linter. There’s no reason to have bugs for undefined vars when they could be caught with some basic automation [...} It catches unhandled errors and undefined variables before they even get pushed to production. "
And there are people still thinking untyped languages are good for the server...

"Node is good when you're using a linter, when you're writing your back end in go, when you write MASSIVE unit tests..."
May be it could be much simpler to use a more suitable langage, no ? Just saying...
How does versioning work with this? Do you have to point directly at a branch/tag and get the latest or can you somehow use semver fuzzy versions with this? i.e. versions compatible with 1.4 -> '^1.4'
I work with them every day, and the point of having HTTP server is not to allow many people to connect to them but one person, or script to do it once in a blue moon without a need to install any software. If HTTP is removed from browsers, this will simply not be possible anymore
This is sarcasm... right?

If not then... I'm not even sure where to start with the problems in that plan.

Well, then neither are most of the companies included. Parrot was founded in '94. Even their drone division is 8 years old.
A few suggestions to put yourself on an even playing field with women.

* Focus your job search on assistant professor positions at universities rather than notoriously selective tech companies.

* Make it understood that you may need at least three months of paternity leave should you become a parent.

* Reduce your salary requirement to about 80 cents on the dollar.
>>Given the underrepresentation of women in tech I think I'm ok with them being chosen over satisfying your ambitions.

This sounds like Affirmative-action; while having good intentions did not work out quite like they hoped. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_action , search for the word "Negative".

Also, I wouldn't want my coworkers thinking I only got the job because I'm a black male. Even I myself don't like the idea that I might have gotten something only because someone else saw me as a charity case or I'm just the "token black guy" so the company can prove "See? We got a black guy! We're cool & hip now!" Replace "black male" with "woman" and I still believe my statement is true for most people.

So if a woman is hired instead of you it means the company is being sexist towards you, not that perhaps she was better than you? How isn't the irony smacking you in the face?

>Well, not everyone wanted to join the SS, and by 1944 it was common knowledge that what these folks do isn't handing out candies...

It's not about knowing they kill people and such. It's about believing that the cause justifies it, which most of them did, and even that they have a duty to do it, etc.

Modern soldiers do evil too -- but they think it's ok, because they bring "democracy" to those places they go (and other similar BS people are told).

>but in the sense of making an evil moral choice - of course.

The problem is that you might not know you're making an "evil moral choice", but just a choice that you (and everybody around you) feels is justified.

People actually making an "evil moral choice" are not that many -- aside from Hollywood evil masterminds. People chosing evil and believing it's the moral thing to do are lots.
The chief technology officer of The New York Times writes an article about how important HTTPS is, on a blog which does not support HTTPS, hosted by a newspaper whose homepage does not support HTTPS? And of course the New York Times has not shown commitment to his challenge by tweeting the hashtag.

It seems like he is challenging his own newspaper just as much as the competition.

What?? Quantic Dreams, Gameloft, Deezer are not startups anymore, and have not been for a LONG time. And I would not qualify Quantic Dream as "tech startup" in the first place, it's a video game company, which falls in a very different category. And if you start including Quantic Dreams, why not include Nadeo, Arkane Studios, etc... most of which are not startups either anymore.
I take this to mean you won't be improving git dependencies then.

i know you are being hyperbolic, but in all seriousness there is the potential for quotas to be put in place.

if I was fully qualified for my job, working hard, and than the government fired me in order to employ someone else simply because they were a different [characteristic ] than me I would quite literally take up arms as it would be obvious that the social contract had become null and void.
Amazing news. Decided 6 months ago to go with Docker (both in dev and in production) for a financial application. It was a risk, and I got lots of resistance from the other devs and the security expert on the project.

Docker is simply amazing. I'm currently using Grunt to manage the images/containers, but Docker Compose will replace some of that in the future.

That being said, here are what you should expect:

1. It's not a VM. What work in DEV will not work in PRODUCTION. Be ready for some nasty debugging.

2. It's better to use the same OS (e.g. Centos) for both DEV and PRODUCTION.

3. Image sizes are not really small. Docker is consuming around 4GB of space for 6 containers.

4. Sometimes it breaks. I just need to destroy the whole thing and start clean. But that's Grunt ReRerun. And it works nicely.

5. I can update the code base, data, the applications, the whole OSes structure with Grunt ReRun. Takes a couple minutes.
This is actually pretty funny. I mean, how can you not realize this is a joke?
He posted it to 4chan.

"The next day, though, Ramirez was merely pleased to see others sharing his one-off doodle. In the anonymous world of 4chan, having other people recognize your contribution felt good."

He clearly didn't have any issue with that, and without any license posted, that was already a violation wasn't it? They shared his work without stating the author and without his permission. Yet he was happy about that, until he smelled some money.

It's like if you would put a basket of candies, some people approach you and try to take it, and you're like "sure, take it, I'm glad you like it". And this keeps on for a while. And then some guy in a suite comes in and takes one candy like so many others. At which point you start running after him shouting "THIEF! He stole my candy!"
A Different Kind of Value
It does indeed make sense for Nokia. Specially in the context of them considering selling off Here maps. Seems there's a sentiment at Nokia to focus on their core business to regain shareholder confidence(and hopefully, I suppose, improve the junk status of their stock).
Why do they need humans looking at files? Can't a program be created that scans disk contents and classifies them in whatever way they need it analyzed?
"A code rewrite means time spent working on stuff that isn't delivering features, which means your business could be stagnating, making customers dissatisfied, giving competitors an opening."

On the flip side, over-engineering before launch means time spent NOT MAKING ANY MONEY because you haven't launched yet. It means pouring engineering effort into something whose success is still hypothetical.

If the biz folks want to know "why didn't you get it right the first time", ask them why they didn't become millionaires at their first jobs.
On Leetchi: If you've ever organised a gift for someone in the office, you know how tricky it is to get everyone to pay up.

I can think of a very easy solution - don't force anyone to pay. Buy a gift to the value of the money that people volunteer to put in. If you work in an business of 30 people, and everyone has to chip in $5 every time there's a birthday, that's effectively garnishing everyone's wages to the tune of $150/year. That should be a choice. If it isn't then your company is likely a horrible place to work.

Alternatively, just have the CEO organise the collection and watch everyone pay up immediately.

Either way, you don't need an app.

You are booting your OS from the SSD right ? If so, which Linux flavor are you using and did you have to tweak the kernel, drivers or anything like that to get it working ?

Are you using the same laptops and desktops ? Am I right to suppose you sometimes have to set up the BIOS so it boots on your HDD or does it somehow automagically work ?
You CAN get a white page or an error message by default, you don't "just get" them. It doesn't make any sense either because (surprise) you can and should configure that away. I see your edit but what's the point of that sentence other than to jab at PHP?
I think that's what the "humans" would be doing - using software tools to scan, analyze and report on the data contained.
Show HN: Scrapple – A framework for creating semi-automatic web extractors
Getting Started with CSS (GSS) in GWT by Jason Lemay
Scrapple is a framework for creating web scrapers and web crawlers according to a key-value based configuration file. It provides a CLI to run the script on a given JSON-based configuration input.

I built this along with a friend, as part of a project. I would love suggestions and feedback !
Yes. That's the point of avoiding premature optimization. You only do it when necessary and thus has the best ROI.
Oh wow, I'm so behind the times :) great, and thanks!

Ok in that case I hereby officially really like the way npm Inc are working on monetization.

Looking at a few sites this morning, it sounds like it's typical to round up to the next Euro in Germany, and that tipping more than 10% might be seen as offensive (unless of course you are hoping to get some extra from an American).
How I work on new features
I fail to see how they are in any way comparable. MySQL and Mongo both have made a lot of money selling into the enterprise with the decades old per server licensing model. Now Mongo is starting to make inroads into the data warehouse space with their partnerships with Teradata, SAP etc. They aren't selling a PaaS or web application that will just be used by a development team here and there.

Docker seems to be much closer to Atlassian. Which could well be their biggest competitor one day.

Zero is an arbitrary limit - It may have a psychological signal, but there is no reason it should be more shocking that the rates drop under zero than when they dropped under 0.1% or any other number.
The bit about the rootkits proves little -- would he be qualified for his job if he WEREN'T interested in hacking?

The rest, however, seems like enough to convict him in the court of public opinion, including my opinion.

Whether he should be convicted under the high standards of proof that prevail in a court of a law depends upon details not captured in the article.
Blatant self-promotion here, but Java's got fibers (aka lightweight threads, aka goroutines), too: https://github.com/puniverse/quasar

BTW, I don't like the term green threads because they have a connotation of being scheduled onto a single OS threads, while fibers/lightweight threads employ parallelism.

From the paper:

> In the main experiment, 363 faculty members evaluated narrative summaries describing hypothetical female and male applicants for tenure-track assistant professorships who shared the same lifestyle (e.g., single without children, married with children).

The effect you are proposing, even if true, does not apply to the result in the article.
Test Drive: AWS Machine Learning and Redshift
Men (and many women) would strike and refuse to go to work in the first place, because they know they have absolutely no job real security, and run the risk of being shot at work purely because of their gender.

So, it wouldn't solve the problem... probably because it's fascistic and sexist?

How would you feel if it were the other way around, and it was insufficient white people relative to blacks, and we just killed off the excess if their employers try to shield them and replace them with white workers? You know: Apartheid?
Indeed. My intent was to give a quick introduction to hackathons newcomers not to prepare one for a security challenge.

You're also ignoring the larger threat to that plutonium; the issue that someone may not want to separate the contaminants. If they're making a dirty bomb, they don't care if it has contaminants or not.

So which is worse for that, having a fuck-ton of seriously nasty stuff sitting around forever, or concentrating the nasty stuff to a much more manageable volume and then fairly quickly shipping it off to be destroyed (in a way that just happens to provide useful energy out of the deal).
Do engineers really make better spouses?
Communities have their own rules and code of conduct which are different than (and often in collision with) the law. In places like 4chan, the unwritten community rules are that these kinds of images and symbols are implicitly stated as public domain, by the simple fact of being posted in a forum where remixing works from others is a major activity.

Yes, but unfortunately logic and reason don't factor into the decision making around nuclear energy policy.

People love to point scream and shout about the dangers of nuclear energy. In conversation I've noticed that people think of nuclear energy as interchangeable with nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are incredibly difficult to build compared to a nuclear fission reactor. The experimental data you need to build one either requires numerous tests or stealing it from a government. Nuclear reactors on the other hand, can be very simple. The simplest reactors are just lumps of radioactive material carefully bonded to thermoelectric devices! The biggest risk from a conventional nuclear reactor is a steam explosion and the dispersal of radioactive material. I reckon the second biggest risk is having tons (quite literally) of spent fuel laying around the country for no good reason. The storage ponds aren't 100%, accidents will happen. For most of the ponds if the cooling systems went offline the water would boil away and then the fuel would self-heat till it started to oxidize. At that point you've basically got hundreds of miniature fallout generators going. You better hope the structure above the pond is airtight because no one is going to be entering it again in this century.

The same group of people that scream and shout about nuclear energy being unsafe seem to actively ignore the dangers of conventional energy generation. For example, steam explosions are still a risk to the employees operating the plant. But I guess their lives don't matter? The pollution from coal isn't exactly helping the environment. Then there is this matter of what to do with all of the coal dust after it is burnt. You know, the same coal ash that over 1 billion gallons recently flooded an area of Tennessee. This contaminated a river, people's land, and destroyed their homes.

Even if we ceased 100% of nuclear energy generation today, we still need Yucca Mountain to deal with the spent fuel we already have. It seems that some groups in the US believe that if they scream loudly enough, the problems of the world will simply go away.

Also there is this issue of the fact that the energy consumers and the taxpayers already paid for the fucking thing but aren't getting any of the benefits. At this point it is basically just a boondoggle.
Agreed. A company that hires no women will likely be at a disadvantage to the competition. Hiring diversely is an asset. While I'd like to fast-forward to a time where gender is in fact equal in most things, I think a much better way to start is to remove gender, race, etc. from college and work applications altogether.

What would happen if we let merit and drive determine outcomes above all other things? Maybe there are caveats I'm not considering.
Why would banks lend to homeowners at less than 1% spread? That seems extremely low.
Hiring one Canadian is prohibitively expensive, so instead they fight a legal battle to be able to send a team of Americans? That seems like a red flag to me. Even computer forensic professionals can't be that much more expensive than police officers and lawyers.

There are folks of certain political persuasions that would suggest that you are ignorant of the struggle and your white privilege is manifesting itself. This is exactly why I don't understand the "we need a woman president" malarkey. No, we need competent people regardless of their color or genatalia. This idea that we 'need' more this or more that is actually sexist and/or racist by definition.
The problem with workers is that they don't have an event-loop (like the main thread). So it is not possible to use asynchronous code written for the main thread in those worker threads, which is of course quite limiting.

EDIT: I mean workers which run in a thread (as opposed to in a process). An example is given by the webworker-threads npm module. Threads allow one to structurally share large data-structures, so one does not have to serialize them when calling a worker (serializing large structures would block the main thread).
You usually think of the product of a matrix with a vector as the matrix acting on the vector, i.e. every row of the matrix tells you what the corresponding component of the resulting vector is. This turns the thing on its head and describes the result as the vector acting on the matrix. Because you usually use matrices to describe operations, e.g. transformations like translations or rotations in (computer) geometry or observables in quantum physics, it seem more natural to think of the matrix as acting on the vector, i.e. a point of the geometry or a physical state, not the other way round.
Why the CMO Should Care about Application Modernization
I agree it's not evil, but in some cases it's definitely illegal. Whether that's a good or bad thing, I pass no judgement on.
That's a good point, thanks for filling it out.
Ok. I see your point. Positive discrimination is harmful, but I think it only applies when it's abused. From my vantage point I don't think we are there.

Do you think that any amount of positive discrimination is harmful for a given population?
The domain of the study is higher education at US institutions. Actual hiring is typically done by committee. The hiring process is often protracted with long application Windows and substantial gaps between offer and start date. The hiring committee typically is made up of line workers [professors] and subject to administrative and executive oversight. Public institutions may get political oversight as well.

Candidates for STEM professorships will often have already gone through previous academic hiring cycles as postdocs...that is there has been a previous screening with less oversight and less balanced power relations.

What this means is that we should use caution extrapolating the results of a study that models academic hiring on individuals reviewing CV's without collective and institutional input. We should also be cautious extrapolating from the academic world to ordinary commercial hiring due to the variances in goals, constraints and processes.

Users fall into two categories:

1) Don't really care about privacy. Might not want their chat on the front page of the papers, but aren't going to go to great lengths to achieve that.

2) Actually care about privacy and are informed. There's not many of these people, but they're trained to be wary of every outside dependency and opportunity for hostile code injection. Crypto running in the browser can be replaced any time you load it if the host is compromised - either in the technical sense or the legal sense. Yes, it could be hashed, but it isn't and there's no mechanism for this nor plans to build one.

Not to mention that the browser itself presents a pretty large attack surface.
