Fair correction, I was going off the parent's statement of males under 40.

I'm talking one rep max after warm up. A beginner would be hard pressed to rep nearly that much. My one rep max when I started was 185 and increased to over 300 within a few months. After a year I was maxing at 415, that's where I stopped going any further. I have had (and have seen) massive gains in one rep max just from learning good technique and getting your muscles used to lifting for a week.
No offense, but this is standard business practice. Integration hooks are added to an application PURELY as a feature to make the application more compelling. Uses of the integration hooks which are not making the application more compelling will probably be undermined eventually.

Ultimately Zenefits is in this situation because they are more or less a UI or Orchestrator of other services that do the 'real' work. ADP was just tired of letting a middle man eat off of them.

And I can see exactly how they got to that mistake...

The writer was waffling between "We do not require customers to have a domain registration" and "We do not require that customers have a domain registration", and they forgot to remove the entirety of the old wording when replacing it with the new.

I've made this mistake myself several times, and it jumps out at me whenever I see it.
Could this be something that is a bit of a mix of age/gender bias? I can't help but think that someone 40+ years old would be more likely to speak those kind of things.

For men of my age (my perspective/experiences), the examples look more like this:

- "That young person over there? Must be an intern or just came into the field"

- "Back in my day we did it with punch cards, boy"

- "So easy even your grandparents could do it."
You already can do that for pretty cheap (if you use SNI), but only from the CLI and the command isn't exactly simple. [0] Having it integrated so you just click 'yes, SSL' and it handles cert generation and config would be great.

All this shows is that Moldbug and others are exactly right about the tech industry. It is a cesspool of neo-Bolshevist Prog political correctness, rather than somewhere in which people's talent is paramount.

Liberals believe that history favors them always. Within this century, we'll see if that hypothesis is correct. The geopolitical death of the West will be the end of this wretched ideology, just as the geopolitical death of the east was the death of Marxism.
The article is confusing a prior with a bias. They aren't the same thing. A prior is a belief you hold before any evidence is present. A bias is a failure to properly update your beliefs after obtaining evidence.

Believing a woman at a tech conference is a recruiter (before interacting with her) is merely a prior. In my experience it's also a reasonably accurate one. If one were to fail to change that opinion after a woman claims she is a developer, that would be a bias.

I'm very surprised ADP would even open themselves up like this to a competitor. The mythical ADP API has been hovering around for years. It feels like ADP just "fixed the glitch" in "Office Space" terms.

Anyone going with an ADP competitor is going to have to get fully off ADP. This is a big risk for companies. ADP knows this and the overhead around compliance and other back-end work is massive. Any company trying to innovate in the HR space has the security blanket of ADP to combat.

For those that take the risk on companies like Zen* or *Zen need to weigh it. ADP has already had to open-up a bit and improve systems over the last few years to go mobile and improve UI enough to not make it totally horrible. But, it typically comes down to compliance vs. innovation and ADP is the former. If ADP did "fix the glitch" here, it reaffirms the risk and peril of innovation when you still are dancing with the 800lb gorilla. HR folks don't want the headache of that dance and that is why ADP usually wins unless you can totally lap them.

People keep getting it wrong because monads are the wrong abstraction. The right abstraction is algebraic effects. They correspond much more directly to "interactions", because the types of effect handlers are exactly the types of allowed "interactions". As a bonus, algebraic effects commute with each other, while monads usually don't. (For example, there's a gratuitous difference between Maybe (List a) and List (Maybe a), and people who want to program with effects shouldn't have to think about such differences.)

There was a great quote saying that when you get something almost right but not completely right, you have to explain it to people over and over again. IMO people should pay more attention to that quote, it applies to monads perfectly.
Well, again - I can't argue with lifting, since it is a large part of my life and I am glad you have found success with it.

However, 5-10 miles per week is about the same as nothing in terms of the walking that the human body is designed to do. You can walk about four miles in one hour, and if it's part of your daily routine you'd be doing 20-30 miles per week - even if you skipped a day or two.

I encourage you to try it. Worst case is you get out and see a lot of things and have some nice active meditation for a week or so.

Treason (n.): "the crime of betraying one's country.."

This is not an absolute truth. Revealing "state secret" documents is only treason if you identify the elites and elected officials as the country, and not the population. Arguably, when Ed released state secrets to the citizens of his own country, it was NOT treason. He certainly didn't betray the citizens who were being lied to by their government, and the citizens compose much more of the country than the government does.
The best part was when he added the yellow red lights. The swing of mood was stunning.
> Who cares if it costs $5billion if we can progress from it and someone will fund it?

Hey, if it isn't coming from taxpayer money, I don't care.

But this whole California High-speed rail vs Hyperloop thing? That's a publicly funded project, slated to be funded by California bonds and California debt. I say California should buy the proven system, while the private sector can go play with their own innovative products until they can at least demonstrate a working prototype.

There's no reason for California to fund the hyperloop project... not yet anyway.

We're only obliged to follow the letter of the law. If there is no law against making profits where they are beyond the reach of local taxation, there's nothing objectively wrong about it.

Even using your own reasoning, if the profit is made elsewhere, the only moral obligation is to pay the legal taxes that apply in that locale.

Oh, odd. Are you manually opted into the "HTML5 YouTube" version (is that still even an option or just the default for everybody now)? I had to manually "click to enable Flash plugin" to watch their I/O stream a few weeks ago in Chrome.

And, last I checked, Chrome doesn't support HTTP Live Streaming, so if you are using Chrome and getting live video without a pulgin, I'm not sure how it works?

Extra note: Chrome on Android does support, but Chrome-the-desktop-browser does not support HTTP Live Streaming. Computers are awful.
Terrain also plays a part. Frankfurt-Milano crosses the Alps, and it's slower (per distance) than the other examples.

If that were true, everybody and their little sister would understand the Bolzano–Weierstrass theorem by now. It was discovered in 1817.

How much do you weigh? That plays a big role. I used to lift with a friend who was 6' and weighed 120lbs. He struggled with just the bar (45lbs) initially because he had no muscle mass at all. Your average male under 40 has a decent amount of muscle.

Other than that, there's a lot to be said for a proper trainer who can help get your form right and give you motivation. I would easily lose 20lbs off my max when I was lifting with a partner who couldn't motivate me as well.
> Rumor that they may have struck a deal with ADP to be their benefits administration system and replace TotalSource

If these discussions were going on, I suspect ADP's move to block Zenefits today was either a result of these negotiations breaking down, or a bezos-style move to get more leverage on this negotiation :)
Ask HN: Should I drop out of a top med school to pursue a career in CS?
I was a student at a top 3 med school (US News), but had a bunch of issues during 3rd year. I think I got really depressed, hated my clinical rotations, didn't enjoy the hospital, etc. I started failing rotations, and my adviser told me to take a break. I ended up transitioning into the software industry, got a job as a software engineer with a 6-figure salary, and have been working as a developer for about 1.5 years now. It's fantastic. Life is much better than it used to be...I'm much happier now. Not only that, but I'm learning the skills to hopefully start my own company one day.
I might hurt/disappoint some people were I to drop out (e.g. parents [though they're getting used to it; and my mom happens to love Mark Zuckerberg; they are aware of the money you can make in this industry). I tried getting reinstated with the school, but my request was rejected. They do allow me to appeal this decision back to the committee. If it's rejected again, I can appeal the Dean, Provost, and President of the university, in sequential order. Appealing the committee would involve obtaining and submitting letters of support, which isn't that difficult. However, if the committee rejects my appeal, I don't think I would appeal the Dean and onwards (this may involve actual lawyers).

My question is, what would you do? Would you move on and pursue a career in a field you love (with the hopes of starting your own company one day), or would you try again to get reinstated? If you were my parents, what would you want me to do?

Were I to get reinstated, I'd have about a year remaining to get an MD. I imagine an MD might be helpful at some point (requesting funding from VCs, prestige, finding a job in case the economy tanks or if there's another bubble, etc). I might get depressed again were I to go back, but at least this time there's a back up plan. I think I can probably suck it up for a year this time around and just try to get through it.
Thanks for these resources.

And I'd bet the injury rates outside of weightlifting are much lower. We don't fall and break a hip because our bones are too dense for that nonsense.
This is correct. However, it's funny because when I'm writing stream of consciousness (or chatting with someone) I often write 4$ instead of $4 because I'm typing as I'm thinking, and I don't think "dollars of which there are four" but "four dollars" as number then unit following.

Although not nearly as horrific as a coal mine, I learned this type of lesson in a bout of unemployment. I'm a self-taught programmer, and had been laid off of my job, and with only 1 year of experience and no degree it's super tough to get anything in a small town.

So, I ended up working at a local factory. The labor itself was hard, hot, and sweaty(in the summer, the temp was usually around 120F), but you got use to it after a month or two if you don't have a heat stroke (which is common).. The most horrifying thing I saw in this though was the utter disregard for human life.

If you got hurt on the job for any reason, the company would try to find anyway they could to fire you as soon as possible. One guy had a family to feed and all, and due to a missing guard ended up grinding a spot on his arm down to the bone. Although the department head had told him to work as fast as possible and disregard the missing guard, it was the employees fault for getting hurt. He came in the next day bandaged up and on painkillers (because they still didn't let him have a day off) and then fired him at around an hour before closing.

In another case, a guy in my department that I commonly ate with lost his finger. I didn't hear the story of what exactly happened, but he was fired, determined to be his fault. Also, the factory tended to actually be a highly sought after job. It was well paid (for the area, around $13/hour) and accepted anyone with a high school diploma. So, if you complained about too much, you could easily find yourself canned for not meeting impossible quotas and with a replacement at your station in less than a week.

Also, people drove from all over (Oklahoma) to go to this job. So, when there was a rare snow storm and most people were trapped in their house, they all had to take "points" (ie, their only allocated time off) if they couldn't leave. I think 5 or 6 people wrecked on the way to work.. They kept this crap up even after being sued for some relatively small amount by an ex-employee for being fired due to crashing on the way to work when there was an ice storm (She was fired because she ran out of her allocated time off)

The way the managers and company would treat humans more like robots was really more painful than the work, and when I quit (because I got a programming job again) I did not complete my 2 weeks I was suppose to and ensured that I'd never be able to work there again

Yes. I feel software engineers at drchrono make a difference every day by giving amazing software to doctors who use it to treat more patients and make more money doing it (which will keep them from rage quitting medicine after using other EMR software which is just terrible.)

I just went digging around the zenefits.com and pulled this verbiage out, which i think outlines the fundamental business problem:

'Zenefits works with all top payroll providers, so there's no need to switch from your favorite system.'

ADP doesn't want to be a 'provider' in the 'Payroll As A Service' sense. Further Zenefits entry point into the market is based on the low friction of you not needing to leave your current payroll system...

why on earth would ADP let this continue?

Ask HN: The Case of the Mixed-Up Hats
There's a baseball team that consists of 20 kids. At the end of the season, they all go to the coach's house to have a barbecue. The coach says, "You can't wear your hats at the barbecue." So, all the kids take their hats and throw them in a big pile. They fill their little faces with hot dogs and corn on the cob. At the conclusion of the evening, they all reach in at random, grab a hat and put it on their heads.

What's the probability that 19 out of 20 of these kids get their correct hat?
Agreed. It looks like a really cool project, and I wouldn't mind moving some open source stuff to it, but only being able to create public boards off the bat kind of scared me off. Would like to try it out as a personal TODO list and explore the features before converting a project over.
Hardware/OS aside, it's amazing to see a high-profile webpage in 2015 merrily proclaiming itself to only work in only one browser. It's even more amazing to see some replies on HN defending it.

Probably for the same reason that bad management practices still exist: it's more fun for the higher ups.

It's pretty well established that working from home/remote work ends up with more stuff done, happier workers, etc, but above manager level, directors really hate remote work, for the most part. I think the directors feel more "in control".

I'm hesitant to put a reason why to bad customer service, but I could suggest a range of reasons, like the upper management likes to squeeze employees, which indirectly results in crap service. Or maybe upper management believes bad customer service is more profitable, despite the evidence.

The urge for "culture fit" is how, despite completely innocent aims ("let's find people we can get along with"), the results look indistinguishable from systemic discrimination. This is why diversity requires active effort, not just e.g. waiting for the pipeline to fill.
