Worked in restaurant industry. Latino workers had a pool of money that the all put into and if I remember correctly they rotated who the paid it out to for big purchases like this. I think they mainly used it for like cars and homes.

If it doesn't require JS parsing I used Parsel. It's the underlying selector library for scrapy.

People have seemed to formed this evil caricature of Scalia that I really don't understand. Guy truly loved the law and loved teaching it. My understanding is that is why his opinions were so verbose. Also guy was always expansive on 4

Wish I wasn't so young when he ran against Obama in '08. Paid no attention and missed my opportunity to vote for him. Ran a really respectful campaign. HBO doc on him was really good too. Nasty stuff about his adopted (Bangledeshi

I think my favorite non "data science" use case is web scraping. Ad-hoc nature of the task lends itself to using a notebook. A lot of times I don't want the full suite and boilerplate Scrapy gives you so I write it out in a n

I got financial aid as part time. I think you only need 6-9 hours or something.

Craigslist and Backpage "allowed" rampant sex trafficking but I'd imagine the HN community wasn't happy with government shutting down those sections of the internet. FB isn't the one engaging in the discrimination i

Is this sarcasm? Legitimate question because I don't see what the issue with these statements are.

To me that sounds like a trade off of due process and justness. Which I hold in high opinion of. At the EOD all laws are backed by violence. If the state is to resort to that they better be right. edit: "...and justness"

If Facebook isn't displaying the ad to you but you walk into the apartment management office and are denied the ability to rent (despite having the means) because you are a minority is Facebook liable? Again Facebook isn't a poten

But is HUD going after them?

What are we waiting for?

Facebook isn't a party to a potential rental contract or contract to sale. They aren't in a position to deny someone housing.

The inefficiency of the process shouldn't be a deciding factor. Should be the justness of it. Facebook isn't discriminating. We don't punish shipping companies when their resources are used for drug smuggling. We punish the i

The difference is that the law shouldn't even be on the books imo. The person discriminating is the private property owner/manager they engaged in the advertising. Facebook did not.

No only person that is responsible is the person who placed the ad. Facebook didn't select the target market and write up the copy.

Regulator land grab imo. FHA is intended to regulate the owners of real estate. HUD shouldn't be in the advertising regulation business.

by AdamM12 8y ago
Why is Facebook in trouble for this and not the persons who actually placed the ads? They aren't the ones renting the real estate. They don't own it. Government overreach imo. Edit: grammatical mistakes

Watson as vaporware articles come up here about once a month. Not that the articles are wrong. Just a bit amusing.

> "Norway, which has one of the highest deadly drug overdose rates in Europe..." This is the news to me. Anyone know why? My thought is that unlike the US they aren't use to dealing with this so Narcan isn't as preval

Wealth Per Capita * Population? Given a country is just a bunch of people the total amount of wealth of that subset of people would be it.

"Facebook said it wouldn’t use the bank data for ad-targeting purposes or share it with third parties." Feel like this only pertains to time of publishing. They will just wait a month or two until everyone forgets and do it anyway

You are always giving away more money than you receive in tax benefits. People forget that.
