There's a difference between deliberate targeting of civilians and collateral damage. The latter is acceptable, as the alternative is literally impossible.

At the end of the day, fight from civvy areas, get civvy areas demolished. That's the nature of the beast. If you establish HQ in a building, that's now an acceptable target. The alternative is that civilian areas are an invulnera

Can't give anything but acceptance of civilian casualties when the Hamas gameplan is literally to attack from civilian areas. At the end of the day, Hamas is deliberately putting civilian lives in the line of fire, and are wholly to bl

Kinda funny, but my experience was quite the opposite there. When migrating our codebase from flake8 to ruff, I actually found a number of bugs in flake8 and flake 8 bugbear that were resolved by a more correct implementation in ruff

I do recall some soft limits though. Back where I was, they tried to keep a certain number of locals on staff.

If I was a dev there, I certainly wouldn't be approving those PRs either. But if the devs at the org all (or even substantially) tend towards malicious compliance, that's a sign that something has gone wrong, relations-wise

Sounds like they're justified for blocking you then.

At the end of the day, it boils down to this. Do you rather have your kid to have big N% chance of being abused, or small n%. At a micro level, you might get more control, but at the macro level, the results in aggregate are what matter.

There's something to be said about a defense of this that doesn't account for random sampling. Assuming that they did a proper sample of said papers, that implies that for whatever domain they sampled, 26% is likely a decent estim

That sounds like the problem to solve then. Otherwise you're just applying a band-aid to an aortic rupture.

They do show that for the subset he was talking about. Competitive online games are extremely male dominated. Similarly, the puzzle-solving spot the difference type of games are exceedingly female dominated.

Says a lot that @Vt71fcAqt7 is describing a chosen segment with population analyses, while you're giving as bad-faith a response as I've seen on HN.

Deliberate filtering to shape opinion. Deliberate being the key word here. If I suck at sampling and make a bias model, I suck at sampling. If I shape a model to neuter it and ensure that it only puts out morally approved outputs, that slan

That is exactly how society works. If people work for my living and see someone just steal for theirs with absolutely no consequence, what they learn is that social dysfunction is optimal, and that doing otherwise is being a chump.

Green name, and an absolute stereotype of a name at that. I think this bugger is grade AAA troll.

In a way, OC is absolutely mainstream now. It's now integrated into the product itself, which dynamically clocks itself depending on thermal headroom. There's thus minimal need for users to do any manual overclocking any more.

Because that totally works. Look at youtube and the phenomenal work done there to get the same contentID'd video on via transforms.

That logic also can go towards the breeding machine side for a population in decline. If men can be drafted to die for the country, can women be drafted to grow it?

It's interesting you put it this way, since one of the reasons for Tokyo's public transport success has been exactly this "property owning".

>It does make me question though, where did society choose to draw the line and why is the line drawn there. The line moves, as and when someone in society gets up in arms at exactly that and is sufficiently powerful to move it. See &quo

It is. If the effect is largely not because of discrimination, and discrimination is far more often stated as the cause, I know who I'd be calling dishonest here. This goes double for anything directed at the public, since a short soun

Or a form of identification, like most other countries have.

Is there any way it can be framed to not be related to Positive Discrimination?

Then perhaps the proper response from opponents of Affirmative Action is to game said honor system. Identify as Black/Native American only for as long is it takes to get in.

We're getting close to 1: Feeling objects. If you're sufficiently handy with a soldering iron and have access to a 3d printer, there's a guy doing Open Source force-feedback gloves out there.

A-grade melodrama here. It's a flight once a year that requires you to pack your bag and get on a plane. Not some gargantuan event that "upends your life"
