I'm probably in the minority and actually liked the animation - I think it represents the spastic, thoughtless, throw-away nature of (most) twitter messages.
Probably because it is insanely unreasonable for many to go through all the hassle for a few flights. I don't spend too much on flying but even twice the price wouldn't bring me to churn credit cards, save all the credentials, watch out for rewards, etc. This is all stuff I'd love to pay someone if I had to do it.
And, according to what I've read, she was spoken to about the salary sharing (whether by her manager, HR or both), but neither reprimanded nor fired because of it.
"A much less aggressive (and thoughtful) move would be to contact the researchers directly."

Not conducting this demonstration on a public highway would also have been a much less aggressive and thoughtful move, not to mention less dangerous.

Are you working, or staring at a bright screen, right up to bedtime? That seems to make sleep harder for me.

A few things I've found that help me:
- Exercise. I work out 8-12 hours/week. Being physically tired makes sleep easier.
- Eat dinner >2 hours before bed and avoid late snacks.
- No alcohol (I do have an occasional drink, but it always impacts my sleep)
- No TV in bedroom. I either read for 30-60 minutes or talk to my wife until we doze off.

Hi everyone! I'm one of Shred Video's founders. We endeavored to make Shred Video after suffering too many hours trying to edit surf trip footage into movies that were any good. We hope to make editing GoPro and adventure travel footage fun and painless, so we can all spend less time editing and more time living. Happy to answer any questions about Shred Video, or just talk shop about movie-making!
Nice job victim blaming.
I actually find that using my phone while in bed increases my tiredness. I'm not sure if it's related to when I was really young and I would read books before sleeping or not, but it's interesting since a majority of people say the opposite effect is more common.

Maybe try reading before sleeping- or something that can take your mind off the day's activities (that's probably what winds up happening with me).
I would caution others to be careful about school policies before taking this approach. I teach in a university undergrad program and storing grades off campus is considered a violation of university regulations as well as FERPA. Putting projects on Github or Bitbucket is fine ( I do this as well ) - its the posting of grades that is problematic.
However, now with the reverse split you now only have
1000 shares. The stock still opens at $20 and still
closes at $60.

That's off. Why are you assuming people would pay the same amount for 8 times as much of the company, instead of 8x more? A better guess would be that if before it would have gone $20 -> $60, then after a 8 -> 1 reverse split it would have gone $160 -> $480.

The only reason splits exist is that people have an irrational attachment to the value of a "share" and expect to see it in a certain range, even though the total number of shares available is a number chosen more or less arbitrarily by the company.

Decades of highly-reproduced social study performed by professionals called a "myth" by a simplistic narrative 1-liner by anonymous commenter on HN. Cool.
> Calling the police on security researchers...I honestly cannot believe this is considered acceptable behavior. A much less aggressive (and thoughtful) move would be to contact the researchers directly. Wow.

Reminds me of people who will call the police on a loud neighbor instead of just, you know, talking to them first.
After reading through a lot of the comments and the tweets, I have a burning question: "where is the spreadsheet?", if one is willing to divulge the salary, I believe he/she doesn't mind this figure to be seen by the public. Or, we can redact the name (if any) and just leave the salary, position, and gender. I am seeing a lot of arguments when the most important item, the spreadsheet, is nowhere be seen.

Did I miss anything?
There are problems with power and corruption.... But

Have you seen what happens to communities when police withdraw? They become overrun by gangs and other less accountable organizations.

Even favelas where cops act paramilitarily, say in Caracas, people still want cops because no cops is usually worse, unless you get a private version of cops, which is essentially cops by another name.
Since you raised the linguistic characterization, (..'monad' is an adjective, not a noun, so your question doesn't apply), you'd therefore say there's "thus no answer" to the question: what's the difference between a "blue envelope" and a basic envelope? ('blue' being an adjective)

In my experience, here's often what's lacking with teaching the latest in programming formalisms: folks need the new concepts explained in some terms of the old in order to understand them, (hence why i was trying to get someone to explain monads in terms of crusty old terms like (C) structures). The frustrating tendency always seems to be to concoct a host of new terms, and then to define them only among those unfamiliar terms; often giving well-intentioned detailed examples yet only using those novel terms and syntax. It would be akin to teaching a foreign language but not even trying to pick up a familiar object and point to it in association with saying the new term for it.

By the bye, i accept and appreciate the explanation given somewhere here (likely by 'im3w1l'), that monadization generates a different structure for different incidences of monadification. This helps conceptualizing the mechanism, in a way that "binding of flattened functors returning null or non-null monads" doesn't. It's worthy to assume that we didn't all spring forth full grown out of the forehead of a particular computer science theory class.

Nonetheless, the efforts are appreciated. Even given the root commenter here promised that monad was a "simple concept" with a simple definition. If you scan about this comment section, do you think this view is well supported?

There are a few things in common but that account is far more professional – note the lack of personal disparagement directed at her and the direct acknowledgement that they had significant problems in parts of the company.

Explaining how salary disparities might have happened is very different from saying she's making it up or calling them a rabble-rouser.

BS i.m.o. It is more like advertisements and marketing. Your work and your ideas don't have to be good as long as they are remembered. The louder you are, the more space you take, the more you let people know of your ideas and your work, the more money you get. If you quietly just do your job without any fuss you get forgotten. Women seem to have very little room for middle ground in today's corporate world either they get forgotten or they develop the worst case of testicular braggadocio you ever seen and end up being managers and CEOs.
> Well if you like to believe EVERYBODY in local administration is corrupted - your choice.

Even if you don't believe they're all psychopaths, even normal people act according to incentives, and no one does anything without some sort of (perceived) benefit to themselves.

So when an official is deciding how to use other people's money, he will be trying to gain personally from his position, and that's where bribes come in.

But yes, in reality, they're pretty much all psychopaths, and they get themselves into positions of power because 1) that's what they crave (as psychos), and 2) they get to use their political power for their personal gain.

Look at what they do, look at the way politicians and officials have behaved everywhere since forever, and.. you'll have to accept that I'm right.

> There is a problem with esthethic. I think I was clear about that.

But you can't legally mandate good taste because most people just don't have it, and the same problems apply everywhere. So what's the real problem and how do you think laws would solve it?

> And people don't like to live in houses that can fall apart, or that are badly insulated

Do people want to look at buildings that are clearly just plain ugly? Do they want chaos and mayhem?

Of course not. So if you think quality is fine because people want quality, why wouldn't the other stuff be fine too if it's guided by what people want?

This hits close to home, being a 30-something software developer, and having grown up in a very religious, anti-intellectual household. Very sad, and preventable.
Nowadays I've taken to creating a to-do list before setting out to code and I always make sure to add a couple of tasks that are somewhat simple and I'm sure I can usually complete before bedtime. That way, even when I haven't run through the entire list, I feel like I've gotten something done and the day has not been completely useless. It usually takes some of the edge off any worries I have.
It is hard to figure out when exponential growth will end while you are in the middle of it.

Linus said something relevant to this in a recent interview on Slashdot[1], answering a question on dangerous AI. To paraphrase him: people are crazy to think that exponential growth lasts forever. As impressive as it may be (at the time), it's only the beginning of an S-curve.

I've extracted a small part of his answer below. I think the whole interview is worth reading (it's a general interview, not AI-specific)

... I'd expect just more of (and much fancier) rather targeted AI, rather than anything human-like at all. Language recognition, pattern recognition, things like that. I just don't see the situation where you suddenly have some existential crisis because your dishwasher is starting to discuss Sartre with you.

The whole "Singularity" kind of event? Yeah, it's science fiction, and not very good SciFi at that, in my opinion. Unending exponential growth? What drugs are those people on? I mean, really..

It's like Moore's law - yeah, it's very impressive when something can (almost) be plotted on an exponential curve for a long time. Very impressive indeed when it's over many decades. But it's _still_ just the beginning of the "S curve". Anybody who thinks any different is just deluding themselves. There are no unending exponentials

What kind of messages are you sending?

Ones that say 'Hi' or 'Hey' or don't seem like they've read the profile, or ones with long rambling cut and pasted generic rambling letters about how they are 'good people and want to treat you XYZ' don't really deserve replies. Do they just want anyone? Or are they looking specifically for something more?

Some message sent do deserve replies, but the people receiving them might just have a full schedule of work/life/ect. Not everyone who is on a dating site is actively searching daily.

Additionally, you can't know who is participating, only who is not participating with you. You may have really lovely words to share, but the recipient might be tracking 3 other message threads. No one is obligated to respond.

It's not really plausible to punish people for not being the right level of active on these sitss. The search results do tend to favor more active/updated profiles.

That said, if you can come up with a great way to improve engagement across a new dating platform, you may find some measure of success.

The IAC owns Match.com, OKC, Tinder and recently bought PlentyOfFish. Maybe you can make something new in a space that seems saturated, but is rapidly becoming more consolidated.
This is the kind of completely uninteresting side discussion that people on internet forums love to get into. "Somebody did something dangerous on a road" is not a relevant topic on HN.
I've never slept more than 3 nights in a row in the past 6 years as a developer.
The history of this type of thing goes back even farther, to the mid-19th century -- see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibuster_%28military%29.

(Back then it was Caribbean and Latin American states that were the usual targets, rather than African ones. But the same logic applies -- the targets were still relatively new post-colonial states, it's just that the colonial power that had most recently been losing its grip was Spain.)
I actually find that the only thing that reliably puts me to sleep when my mind is buzzing is sex or the solo alternative.

> Research that Stanford has done shows that drivers resuming control from Level 3 vehicles functioning in autonomous mode take 10 seconds just to attain the level of ability that a drunk driver possesses. And to get back to full driving competence takes 60 seconds.

So they're assuming that one cannot improve at this task, taking over control from the self-driving car, with practice? They could even test this ability.

How to create a text mining algorithm with Python
On one hand, we have a primary source putting her name on the line, publicly, with a story about her personal experiences.

And we have HN posters reposting it like it means something.

I think we just hit the peak of this "do anything to discredit a woman who has a beef with a tech company" thing.

If it were not demonstrated under real conditions, the car companies would just say "this was a fake test not representative of real-world conditions, isn't that true Mr. Journalist?" and the journalist would have to admit that that was true and then they would say "Under real-world conditions our cars are safe; customers have nothing to worry about."

This has been their playbook about everything for a long time so I don't know why you think it would be different in this case.
In Germany cats are considered small pets and it is illegal for a landlord to prohibit keeping small pets in an apartment (within reason -- there is case law to help out with edge cases). It's often found in contracts but the clause is unenforceable and legally void. Dog owners always have to get explicit permission. In either case the right is null and void if the pets grossly misbehave (damage to the apartment or unacceptable noise levels that disturb the neighbours).

Due diligence aside, documented evidence only comes into play if you become aware of it. If your tenant is posting pics of a pet they're not allowed to keep in the apartment but you're not aware of the pics, no problem. If you pre-emptively ask for their social media details and then neglect to act on the information you find, sure, all blame on you.

There's an important difference between being made aware of information and actively seeking it out. Morally there's no difference between a landlord denying you an apartment because they've been shown a tweet of you bragging about doing property damage or because they were actually there and saw you do it. But there's a world of difference between either of those and intentionally rummaging through a candidate's social media presence to actively look for grounds of denial.
