Latest favorite quote: "If two people always agree, one of them is unnecessary." - Carol Frank
My general feeling about bridge:
"-But I don't want to go among mad people!
-Oh, you can't help that, we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.
-How do you know I'm mad?
-You must be, or you wouldn't have come here."
I am Israeli, currently live in Foster City. Love dogs and puzzles, do science for a living.

- Master as a racist term
- John, how many of your club were straight white men as compared to people of color, women or sexual minorities? How many members of the latter groups joined and left over time? From my impression of you in person I have no doubt that "messy", "ugly", "offensive" discussions were "hell ...
- Master as a racist term
- Hi Dave I work in a ~40 people startup, the ML and computational biology teams (ones that write and often use these documentations) are 12 together. As I pointed out above - personally I believe that terminology is far less of an issue than the lack of representation. But I also ...
- Master as a racist term
- Really? We have a person who works on the team over a year by now, and pointed out that this terminology has unwelcome connotation in his view. I think not accommodating that request would be pure boorishness and bad for the team. Language and context matter and it is not ...
- Master as a racist term
- John - in my experience when people are "trying to make sense" of something, their sentences typically end with a question mark. There are multiple reasons I am not going into a real debate about racism on this forum. My respect for Eugene's work and time is among them. Another ...
- Master as a racist term
- "I hope this will not be taken as a racist comment, because this is not the intention..." Louis, intentions matter when you are 3,4,5....10. When you are old enough to drive, what matters is wether you run someone over, not wether you intended to. This and other ...
- The Kibs Are Not Alright
- I will repeat what I keep saying - "But fortunately most cheaters don't do that -- they tend not to be able stop as I've found unfortunately to be true.....The characteristics of cheaters tends to be hubris -- the belief that they can never be caught -- in the case of ...
- Master as a racist term
- At some point in time my husband and I met a friend of ours - a professor in my field one of the top universities. My husband asked him if he thinks there is really discrimination of women in science. My friend's answer was "I think you should ask her ...
- Kibitzers always welcome
- Brian - I believe the current discussion is not about lockout of kibitzers. It is about delay of 15-30 minutes in the kibitzing, and that has to happen outside of BBO and at the moment does not afford all the conveniences of BBO kibitzing. :)Yu
- The Kibs Are Not Alright
- Debbie, you keep saying you and Jan hope BBO will implement this. Is this in anyway something they communicated or is this so far a one sided plea? :)Yu
- The Kibs Are Not Alright
- I am actually still eligible for flight B. Please enlighten me... :)Yu
