There are tons of exceptions from parking and housing to grants and loans!
Of course, and they're all law-abiding. The law, however, says "thou shalt not discriminate based on gender, religion, skin color, age" et caetera "when hiring". Sure, there are justified exceptions, such as not being able to obtain a horse jockey position if you weigh 250 pounds. This case doesn't fit any exception.
Yes, if you have the right data for it. If you don't, you include the subset you have enough data for and don't talk about the drives/manufacturers you don't have enough data for.
What part of "IT'S ILLEGAL" do you fail to understand? Encouraging minorities and women to apply? Hell yeah, I'm all for it, please do! But do it legally, for fuck's sake.
There's no such thing as "reverse discrimination". You either discriminate or you don't. The law says "you should not discriminate", no exceptions. So they want to bring more women and minorities into the industry using illegal methods, period.
His claim is that Outreachy is discriminatory because it's mission is to increase visible minority and female participation in open source. That part is materially true. However, since he was already a contributor to llvm, he literally could not be discriminated against by Outreachy because he's already participating in the open source movement. My initial reaction is that he's either lying about his reasons or is so self-unaware that he doesn't understand his own motivations. I really think the first reason he listed is the primary reason for leaving and that was that as the project has grown, it has become more difficult to make big meaningful changes, he just needed an excuse that he feels doesn't make him feel like he's leaving the project because it's too mature for him.
Not protesting when changes occur that worsen the status quo is cowardly. Are you suggesting such behavior as the right one?
I assume you are talking about confidence intervals. The problem with them is that they are calculated solely based on sample size. They're not weighted against the possibility of having a bad batch, for example. Improperly stored or transported or built drives could severely skew the data.
But even if we reduce the lower range bound to 1000 drives, the classification remains unchanged.
Not really. Rows with less than 10K drive count should be ignored because they tend to have a higher error margin. This leaves Seagate as highest failure rate with 2.9% for their 4TB drives.
Consider the latest episode, in which the androids at the party so easily fool the person into thinking they are humans, simply because they play the piano a certain way, or take off their glasses to wipe them, or give a funny facial expression.”
Gee, thanks.
As a matter of fact I don't care about spoilers, but I care about whether it's okay to do it. It's not.
Bitcoin Network and High Frequency Trading are mutually exclusive. You can engage in HFT only within one single exchange's ecosystem, because major crypto-exchanges have coin pools where wallets are referred rather than actually holding assets, but then you can only make a profit within that exchange, the overall market effect being limited because the exchanges are siloed.
When teachers ask questions, they don't do it to learn the answer. This may come as a surprise, but they already know more about the subject than you're going to tell them.
Agreed. Hopwever, there are smart questions and stupid questions. There are great homeworks and retarded homeworks. And there are good teachers and bad teachers.
Writing essays is like the hundredth push-up.
No, it's not.
If writing an essay, which is a short text, sounds like work to you, you haven't written enough essays.
It doesn't sound like work. It sounds terribly boring, though. Tell me to write a 10K words literary text on a subject of my choice in 5 days, and I will do it, gleefully. Tell me to write a 500-word essay on a given literary text and I will ignore it until the last moment then come up with a decently written essay and hate you for it.
They're in Romanian mostly but I have a couple attempts in English. See below an example:
Logoi Spermatikoi
The seed of knowledge do we seek Until our hearts lay broken dead; We never ever reach our peek, And skies go black, and stars go red...
The seed of flesh do we accuse To carry us to nowhere's land; But who's to blame, tell me, my muse? The corpse of Hope lies in our hand...
We are all doomed to never find The beauty that we couldn't see; As blindness covers all mankind And Hybris lurks in you, in me...
There is no love, there is just pain And to the one who seeks his God I speak and say he'll search in vain As diamonds die soon in mud......But my beseech has come to end... We feel no more, we sell, we buy, We build machines and wreck the Mind And let the Mankind Spirit die...
We die by our only hand And stars are weeping every night; Who cares? Who sees? The promised land Is dead: We brought him under blight...

They're not hiring anymore, due to backlash.
There's nothing illegal about this anymore.
This F2P with microtransactions model has been going on for quite a few years now.

Good luck with that if you have multiple monitors arranged differently.
So... what was wrong with the Windows Sniping Tool?

There are fewer female kernel contributors because Linus is really mean on the LKML.
Probably.
If he would be nicer, there would be more females contributing to the kernel.
Maybe. However, there is not enough information to confirm that assumption.
And the kernel would be much better as a result.
Is that wishful thinking?

it's an attempt to fight intentional or unintentional discrimination with a small amount of discrimination in the other direction.
This makes absolutely no fucking sense.
Rule #3 of analytics: data is politically neutral.
So all WD drives would be excluded, so what? We won't include them in the comparison either.

Yes, price. Backblaze buys the cheapest HDDs they can find.

I had mentioned it: my essays back in the day, before I said "no more".

+1 funny :)
For sure I won't... because I don't care :)

Your lack of interest will show through in your writing.
Only if you're a bad writer.
The first thing a good education successfully explains to the students is that only doing the work themselves will work.
Totally agree. Now try telling them that writing essay #2349267 on the same opera that's been taught for the last 200 years is meaningful, and why.
