My email server has not given me any problems in a long long time (years) and to see this pop up is annoying. I'm sure google does their best but I really don't see why this particular set of emails suddenly would trigger their spam flag and previous (quite similar) emails from the same originator and from the same mail server would not.

Random checks are random and do not belong in a system like this.

Yes, email is highly complex, I'll grant you that but if you start adding a random element to it then it gets more complex without any apparent reason.

I'd be perfectly ok with all this if I had made changes on my end but I fail to see how not having made changes on my end this suddenly started happening and I'm supposed to be the one at fault.

Freedom is a feeling. If you feel free, then you are free.
> So, the trolls go for the low-hanging fruit.

I agree that they can cause more damage to women, but I think that's mainly because the culture (and the tech industry) is still substantially sexist.

But it's precisely that endemic sexism that makes me suspicious of your theory that of all the people being terrible mainly to women (misogynists, cat-callers, street harassers, pick-up artists, date rapists, abusive partners, exploitative bosses, etc, etc, etc), these trolls are the only ones who happen to be perfectly free of bias.

Do you have some explanation of how all of these people happen to be so unusually free of bias and then take up a hobby where they abuse women for fun? Otherwise, Occam's razor suggests that this is just the on-line form of the culturally endemic male abuse of vulnerable women.

> Indictments of whole industries are worse than distractions.

Nope! Definitely not. People are perfectly happy to let problems exist when they're on a large enough scale, because they don't see themselves as having a way to act. But this problem exists in our industry, and we can fix it here if we want. I sure do.
Review: GoPro Hero4 Session
From a marketing perspective, I think it's a great idea to be able to connect directly with teenagers. Aside from legal issues, the some of the important things on marketers minds are what do teenagers like and how can we convince them to buy products. If you can take all that information and bundle it up into a report, that would be really useful.

Ask HN: 30s survey – Most important benefits for CIOs
I am running a study on what the most important benefits are to CIOs when adopting an ESB or integration tool. It's literally a short 1 page survey where you rank benefits, and add anything if there is something missing.
I'd really appreciate your input if you could spare 30 seconds, and you're a CIO :)

The survey can be found here -

Please don't take this if you're not/have never been a CIO, it's nothing personal :)

I was thinking the same thing. They have less of an incentive to use protection with this device implanted. Let's wait and see until the STD numbers surface.

Ultimately, what's cheaper? Having a baby or taking care of an STD? Perhaps the benefits outweigh the costs.
Nobody ever mentions the problems with environmental pollution and human cancer with chemical contraception. It's very conspicuous. If it were any other product the downsides would be heavily discussed. http://i.imgur.com/S8RCxEe.jpg

I am not trolling I am just being a realist here. I recognize that it totally sucks, and it does seem to be harder for women in certain arenas because they are targeted by trolls more heavily. That being said, this comment is wishy-washy feel good fluff, and doesn't address the real issue.

If i was being harassed online how would I employ these tactics? These are just cliche motivational phrases.

> not giving up and walking off

> had enough and are willing to do hard work

> Speak out, even when it's not in your own best interest

None of these would do anything to prevent harassment.

> Support people who are targeted.

This could mediate some of the damage caused.

> So let's fix it.

"I'm just particularly ... sensitive?"

attuned is, I think, the word you're looking for.

As for my dalliance at the ATF, it was, frankly, about three years worth of time in which I had not yet developed much of a political conscience.

Actually working for the government has helped shape much of my opinions of the government, and in most ways, for the poorer.

Politics aside, I would have a very hard time convincing myself to work for any of the agencies again, if only because I can't bear to watch tens of millions of dollars evaporate when someone's opinion changes, or an election year happens, or the government decides that, despite having gotten to year 4 of the project with all milestones succeeding, they've neglected to budget for years 5+.
Taking care of an STD will be cheaper for the individual and the state, without question.

This has been around forever. I wrote a research paper on using microblogging services to predict political events about a half decade ago.

Three years ago my friend wrote his senior thesis on using it to predict stock market pricing.

This is absurd. A finished project is a dead project. If it isn't improving, it's dying.

Never finish your projects (unless you're just doing homework). Software is a system. Systems of any non-trivial complexity are living things that must adapt and evolve. Constantly.

(Also, there is absolutely nothing wrong with abandoning a project. Gain as much as you can from your experience and quickly move on to something better / more meaningful.)

Don't IUDs have a lot of negative impacts on a woman/teenage girl's health? I seem to remember there was a study about bleeding, irregular menstral periods, and an increase in urine tract infections. It seems irresponsible to give a device like that out to any teenager that wants one. Not that pills are any better.

To a certain extend it makes sense that more readily available guns cause more shootings, but I highly doubt that it's a simple linear relationship.

If I don't have access to a gun I can't go on a rampage shooting. If a friend of mine has a gun I could go on a rampage shooting, but I'm probably less likely to do it on impulse. If anybody in my household owns a gun I can likely go on a rampage shooting whenever I like. But if I own 10 guns I don't see how that makes a rampage shooting any more likely.

The proper statistic would be rampage shooting per household with at least one gun. But even that's probably still very flawed (are dangerous people more likely to own guns?)

I tend to distrust quotes that use terms like "the barren left" - it's clearly not aimed at me, someone who Steven Mosher would probably lump into that category.

Isn't the dumping of antibiotics causing similar problems? The problem doesn't seem to be birth control itself, but improper disposal of household chemicals, really.

Also, do you have a citation for the cancer thing you mentioned?

Consider an ailment like a mild flu. What's more beneficial? Going to the temple and asking a man in the sky to heal you or going to someone who calls himself a doctor who performs something way more harmful than the mild sickness like bloodletting or prescribing antibiotics?

That was the movie version of I, Robot. In the book version, people handed control over to the Machines because they found that the Machines could plan economic and governmental matters better than people could. Also, in Asimov's literary canon, the robots ultimately destroy themselves on the reasoning that having them around was crippling humanity.
I'm not entirely sure about that.

The long term effects of certain STD's will require hospitalization, doctor's visits, and medication. If these programs target teens and poor people, this demographic would also struggle to pay for those things as well -- and they would need to use them for a more protracted period than 10-18 years.

Also: Birth control might give a false sense of security leading to more casual sex and a surging rate of STDs. That last theory makes STDs noticeably absent from the article.
Encouraging them to have sex at all, presumably. If you help with contraception, it's an implicit endorsement of sexual intercourse (at least, that's what many would argue).

Just because you can point to "the" and identify it as a complement or article doesn't mean you understand it and you're doing linguistics!

See this recent submission: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9836769 [Richard Feynman on the difference between being able to name something, and understanding.]

Native-English-speaking children already know how to correctly use articles, without requiring a theory of what they are.

Teaching English learners that "the" is an article will not by itself result in correct use; they will be able to name it as an article, yet continue to use it in ways perceived as incorrect by native speakers, and do so for decades to come, possibly.

It doesn't matter whether we "the" a determiner, or whether we call it a blunx. If we don't know where in a sentence a particular English blunx must be used or else must be omitted, then we don't actually know what a blunx is! And if we don't know that, we probably don't even understand why certain words are classified together as blunxes and others are excluded from that category; we are just demonstrating rote memorization.

Without using the word "determiner" or "article", tell me where to use 'the', where to use 'a', and when not to use them.

The cognitive load is really the hard part of dieting and weight loss. In one sense, weight loss is simple physics - calories in vs calories out.

They start off their podcasts with a review of some sort of alcoholic beverage, then progress through discussions about data science. I find the combination works, I suspect the alcohol helps them express themselves and often it gets pretty hilarious - but I don't think I've listened to an episode that hasn't informed me or gave me some sort of insight into data science yet.

> why do we have to spend so much time allocating blame to everyone in same field of work?

We only spend a lot of time on this because every time somebody talks about their actual experience, eight zillion dudes pop up to shout, "#notallmen"! Or to demand that the problem be proven to them right this instant with detailed studies in top journals. Or to say, "why are we allocating blame" when nobody was in fact blamed.

The tech industry has a problem. Do others? Possibly, but I don't care. Other people can worry about fixing their own industries. I'm going to worry about fixing mine. But it's not going to start getting better until people admit that there's a problem.

A vocal chunk of the US still believes that access to contraception will lead to a mass outbreak of fucking amongst the youth.

Look in this very thread and you will see much hang-wringing about STI rates, which is a code-word for OMG-the-youth-are-getting-it-on. As if they weren't already (pregnancy rates are dropping ...), as if this was somehow wrong (if anything is natural, sex is), as if there were huge surges of STI rates in countries without these hangups about sex, and so on.
