If I read her desription right, she wore pretty typical business casual clothes with a bold colour choice.

So, say a guy walks in wearing a typical hipsterish tight casual suit and dyed hair, would that have been the "deal breaker" on an otherwise highly qualified candidate?

I say this having had a boss who repeatedly stated with glee that he would never hire someone who wore a suit to an interview. He was wrong too.
> Of course, most of these wouldn’t be issues if we treated bikes like cars with the exact same rights and obligations as cars.

Hmm, I suppose you did not mean this, but I think that mandating a bike rider's license, registration, insurance and annual tax would not help that much to remove problems.

Overall, I don't see how bikes could have the exact same rights and obligations as cars, although overall both are vehicles and should be treated as vehicles, equally. Still, you can't ride a bike on an Autobahn, and neither can you drive a tractor. You may or may not be allowed to ride bike on a road that is dedicated to buses, although you may be allowed to ride a bike there. Etc, etc. Bikes cannot and shouldn't have *exact' same rights and obligations as cars.
Safe bike culture varies wildly form city to city within the US. People in Portland are mad considerate (I've seen cyclists chide other cyclists for failing to use hand signals). NYC? I've seen bikers go the wrong way down Broadway in the UWS splitting lanes during rush hour.

I don't think we can really say there is little going on in search when Google and Bing both have 100s if not 1000s of engineers working on it. That said I do agree that I would expect a lot more ML and NLP tools to start showing up as part of search for helping to classify content (I am sure they do this internally just hasn't been user exposed). We built this demo because we thought there was no easy way to classify content sites (a problem we had been discussing with KDNuggets) and got inspired by some of the algos our community had added.

There should be two-- and preferably only two --obvious ways to do it.

-- The Zen of Python
It's because in theory, it's faster to copy the values to registers than to have to push them all to the stack and then have the callee pop them. At least that was the thought behind Microsoft's __fastcall, which was their original version of a calling convention using registers, though in that case it seems the benchmarks aren't conclusively in support of the theory.
It is notable, though, that almost all London bike deaths seem to be from being run over by HGVs. Cyclists (stereotypically) loathe cars, but are not killed by cars.

I don't really have own experience of London traffic, but from reading newspapers, it looks like you should do less to cars and more to heavy goods vehicles and buses.

How does Borg compare with Google's Kubernetes?
Right. But half-way, somewhat maintained ansible is much better than the similarly maintained shell scripts and Makefiles...

And you get somewhat more portability with it.

mattjaynes mentioned his blogpost in a previous discussion on this: https://devopsu.com/blog/ansible-vs-shell-scripts/

I think it illustrates the difference well. I agree that you probably could do much of the same with discipline, source control, shell scripts and Makefiles. But there's a reason why we use other languages than shell scripts. Shell scripts are finky, and it takes years for people to stop making "rookie" mistakes. If they ever do. "[" vs "[[", ${var} vs $var, ksh vs bash... the shell gives you way too much rope (and I like shell scripts :-).

Of course you have seen a bicycle stop for a stop sign. No need to lie, it throws away all points you're trying to make. Besides, this is the typical confirmation-biased anecdotes that pollutes these discussions.

Have you thought of why this is so common? A bicycle uses human power, stopping is a much bigger hassle than sitting lazily in a car. And a bicycle approaches a stop sign much slower than a car, this having a better overview before crossing.
IMO, if you're going fast enough and there isn't room for cars to pass, you should be riding down the center of the lane. Especially if there's hazards in the bike lane.

Don't let people do stuff that compromises your safety.

Why do you write this as if driving drunk is okay?
Unintentional doesn't mean no fault. The fact that it is standard usage is the whole point -- it shouldn't be. Drivers do not pay attention, they do not look when they change lanes, and they hit bicycles and motorcycles and it is called an accident, as if the driver had no control of their vehicle.
Being "doored" is the car driver's fault. Children are taught to look before opening the door.

Aside from how Pearson performed, I'm rather surprised that they choose to buy so many iPads.

What does the iPad offer to the pedagogical process? Are they teaching kids about programming or computer skills? Probably not.

Did they expect Pearson to produce an entire curriculum just for the iPad? Why not a website instead, which is so much more easily accessed and maintained? Did these schools want to be "technological" for the sake of it?

And for general student tasks, is the iPad really a good fit? As opposed to a conventional computer running Microsoft Office or a browser with Google Drive? And that computer could do other things too?
> the attitude "anybody who misbehaves on a road deserve to die"

You are putting words into mouths.

It's more like, "acknowledge that if you misbehave on the road, your chances of getting killed increase and it may be your fault." I don't know why it's impossible for some people to hear that without imagining the "deserves" part.

It's fascinating how the mostly-subconscious bias shows in news articles about driver-cyclist and driver-pedestrian collisions. The driver (and their responsibility) is abstracted away by just referring to a "car", and even when it is clear that the driver broke the law it is rarely mentioned. Phrases like "a driver hit a cyclist" are almost never used; at most it's something like "A cyclist collided with a car" and often even worse - using formulations that imply that cars are some sort of an agency-less force of nature like lightning - getting hit is either an unfortunate accident or recklessness on the victim's part. Almost always the cyclist is victim-blamed for not using a helmet.

Wellll, it's going to be a lot sooner than Mars. They inked a contract recently with the USAF to use a pad for landing. I don't know when that's supposed to happen, but the barge was never more than a stopgap until they could secure a spot on land and work out all the regulatory concerns.

as KSP player and armchair engineer:

when the rocket touched on the barge, thrust vectoring couldn't rotate the rocket anymore, since legs become a fixed pivot. and rcs didn't had enough trust to upright the rocket.

now I don't think the issue is as easy as 'rcs didn't had enough thrust'

what looks like is that the control system minimized vertical/horizontal velocity but allowed the rocket to touch down with too much rotational momentum.

whether this was caused by software or hardware has to be seen. if they are storing the landing fuel in the same storage as the ascent fuel, sloshing may be a big factor.

but I honestly have no idea, just like the speculation.
The need for the GNU project and philosophy is still great, I'm not sure there's a need for the Hurd though. We already have a popular, well-supported (by companies and individuals) kernel which is available under the GPL (and another which is available under the BSD licence, which provides useful competition). I think it would be better if the GNU project put their full weight behind Linux rather than trying to work on their own kernel which isn't getting any traction.
Hm, why do you have such impression? Killing someone while driving drunk is quite a felony in my book. But breaking someone's arm just because you were not able to figure out where the lane markings are is not okay too, but doesn't sound like a felony punishable by the jail time.

Also, the standards of sobriety are very different in different countries. In Russia you're technically drunk if you had a bottle of yogurt for breakfast. And they _will_ use that against you in court, it's not just a "fun fact".

Why did you decide to take this route at 23? What were the drivers.

Thank you for sharing.
There's a whole section about it in the paper (lessons learned and future work).
I don't understand. My point is that "accident" just means that something is unintentional. It doesn't mean there is no fault. Calling a traffic collision accident does not imply that the driver had no control over their vehicle. It only means that the driver did not intend to have the collision.

I can't stand when writers artificially lengthen the article and only after the first half get actually to the point:

> “Only two schools of 69 in the Instructional Technology Initiative ... use Pearson regularly,” according to an internal March report from project director Bernadette Lucas. “Any given class typically experiences one problem or more daily. Teachers report that the students enjoy the interactive content — when it’s available. When it’s not, teachers and students try to roll with the interruptions to teaching and learning as best they can.”
I've spent time at an organic dairy farm, and I was not upset by anything that I saw there. Although it's not a natural way of life for a cow, the animals were treated very well. There were some processes that cause the animals short-term pain, like removing horns to ensure they don't hurt each other, but there was definitely no long-term suffering; certainly not around the milking process.

I do completely agree that the vast majority of milk production is done in an unethical way and I find mass-produced milk to taste terrible, but I've done my research and I am satisfied that milk can be produced in a responsible way.

I'm a pedestrian in SF and disagree with this. I tend to walk anywhere between 4-8 miles per day, just as a matter of course, and I see dozens and dozens of cyclists. A significant number of them do not stop at red lights when traffic is light. A majority do not stop at stop signs. When it comes to stopping, cars are much more law-abiding (likely because the penalty is worse, not because of any desire to be safer). Many cyclists make unsafe turns; I've had a few close calls while walking. Many ride on the sidewalk. I even occasionally see a cyclist riding the wrong way on a one-way street (though most will move to the sidewalk instead of doing this, which is just as bad).

And if you want further proof, just read the list of bicycle fatalities in SF and see who is at fault. Most of the time it is the vehicle.

This point has nothing to do with whether or not the majority of cyclists are responsible and law-abiding. All it does is suggest that drivers are inattentive, and that the state is strongly biased toward drivers and wrongly backs them up when they kill someone.

I wouldn't say that most cyclists are irresponsible (more that they tend to take risks, risks which may actually be reasonable and acceptable), and I certainly don't believe that most cyclists are at fault when there's a fatality involving a car (quite the opposite). But suggesting that most cyclists habitually follow the rules of the road... that's just absurd in my experience.

HN is not and never will be an appropriate stage for cryptographic review.
Yes, agree that cyclists often occupy an unhappy middle position between cars and pedestrians.

My position is that walking is humanity's natural way of moving around and that urban landscapes where they maintain primacy are by far the most pleasant in which to exist and move around. We obviously also need other modes of transport in our modern world but every effort should be made to keep these other modes of transport from taking over primacy. Unfortunately this is exactly what cars have done. There is much less of a threat from cyclists to pedestrians but still, as a cyclist, I feel that is up to us to respect pedestrians and not the other way round. Of course, I would also like to see car drivers demonstrate the same attitude towards cyclists (and, of course, pedestrians).
