Ask HN: How do you know you're getting paid enough?
There's a discrepancy in the payroll at my current workplace. I've come to this conclusion by finding out how much another employee gets paid, and the tricky thing is that he's a junior and I've been responsible for the project for some time, while he's been under my lead and supervision. He's always hasty, makes mistakes and simply cannot handle all the things implied with the project, while I am getting all the stress and often clean up after him. With that, I do not get paid significantly more than he does. Is it because my self-marketing skills suck and I should asses myself better in light of that, or because the guy who writes the check thought that the guy deserves more than he really does?

It seems that he was hardly an innocent bystander.

> Lavoisier was a powerful member of a number of aristocratic councils, and an administrator of the Ferme Générale. The Ferme générale was one of the most hated components of the Ancien Régime because of the profits it took at the expense of the state, the secrecy of the terms of its contracts, and the violence of its armed agents. All of these political and economic activities enabled him to fund his scientific research.

He had a direct hand in oppressing an enslaved population, extracting their wealth, and using it for his own means.

When reviewing code you sometimes miss things. It's not an exact science.

You also sometimes get a bad feeling without being able to say exactly what's wrong - it just feels/looks bad. That's when you should seek additional input from your peers.

Rejecting code based on 'smells wrong' can be sane. The submitter should then explain better why the code is sane.

> Perverse is taking a high-functioning part of your body (the efficiency of your gut bacteria) and destroying completely it because you don't want to stop eating more than your body needs.

Viewing something operating out of normal parameters that provide desired outcomes is, as I stated upthread, a harmful microoptimization.

High-function is hitting the ideal for your needs, not just getting bigger numbers on some measure that ignores its role in the system. With many body systems, excessive function is bad, and when we understand how it is bad and how to treat it, we do.

We don't complain that is bad to treat a "high-functioning" immune system and that people with disorders resulting from overactive immune systems should instead learn the self-control to avoid triggers rather than seeking treatment.
It's got nothing to do with copyright. Classic Mac OS, from which HFS+ descends, happily copied both forks of a file for you. I'd be shocked if OS X's Finder didn't also copy both forks. I believe cp also supports them. And you can access them on the command line by appending "..namedfork/rsrc" to the filename.

Although resource forks were just another data stream at the filesystem level, the OS treated them as structured data, with record types and IDs. They were used to store user interface elements--icons, pictures, window definitions, dialog boxes, etc.--as well as string lists, version information, and, yes, fonts. Even the executable was stored as a resource (M68k code that is; PowerPC binary was in the data fork). Applications could define their own resource types too.

As another poster points out, this scheme helped applications manage memory by only loading into RAM the resources it actually needed at any given time.

Have you looked at obesity statistics? http://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/health-statistic...

> More than 1 in 3 adults are considered to be obese.
> More than 1 in 6 children and adolescents ages 6 to 19 are considered to be obese.

Do you mean to say that 33% of quantifiably obese adults have unusually efficient gut bacteria? These aren't strange outliers, it's one third of the adult population.
> Far better to show them the most effective technique, let them practice it, and move on.

This can work for the base levels of what most folks think as mathematics, namely arithmetic and algebra. But it starts falling apart as students get to more advanced algebra and mathematical topics. Memorizing a particular algorithm does not lend to understanding mathematics. In particular, the parallels between algebra (and some arithmetic) and geometry are non-obvious and not easily conveyed via a series of exercises and then jumping to the next topic. See the visualization examples of `18x5` in the linked article. Letting students see the correlation between the numbers and the objects (squares and rectangles) greatly helps their understanding of the subject. Discussing it reinforces this experience and gets them to see it beyond the exercises they've been doing, abstracting the concept beyond a handful of cases and to the general case.

> Riding bikes and mathematics were never evolutionarily selected for, so we have to learn them by, well, learning them.

There are many ways to learn and to teach. Teacher-tell, student-regurgitate is one method. And it works for some (many) subjects, at least in getting facts and figures into students heads. Teacher-tell, student-explain gets the students past thinking about facts and thinking about whys and hows of the world. (You can expand tell beyond spoken word to shown, demonstrated, etc.) Teachers can take it further by starting on a mathematical topic, and directing the student conversation and discussion towards understanding (I think this is the example I'm looking for, graph theory for eight-ear olds: http://jdh.hamkins.org/math-for-eight-year-olds/).

Everything supports SVG 1.1 these days (the end of the article talks about this).

There's only so many jobs you need to create. The US have a population of about three hundred million. Not all of them work.

So, let cut it in half. You have a labor force of one hundred fifty million people.

But they're not all employed. Some of them have great jobs, some don't. Their wages are sometime shit, the working condition's terrible. Some people sucks at keeping a job. Some just don't have the skills.

Businesses aren't exactly the paragon of efficiency either. They find it easier to just reject an entire category people, such as convicts.

So, you have this massive inefficiency where people who wants job can't get them. High demand job can't be filled because they can't train the right people or they reject too many suitable candidates, such as old programmers.

Other factors conspire to make living more difficult. For example, real estate costs mean your cost of living is high, and you need to make X amount of money to have a roof over your head. Pressure is often not relieved because of housing policies and local politics.

Everything else gets cheaper to an approximation. Though it seemed that the price of computer remain constant, meaning your dollars buy more bang for its buck rather than decreasing in nominal price.

Here's a though experiment I came up with several years ago:

I can see that these two worlds would need twice as many barbers as the current world. Would these two new worlds need twice as many Google/Facebook/etc. employees?
The lack of jobs growth doesn't seem that surprising, but the lack of productivity growth does.

Is it just that new technologies aren't really all that relevant to increasing productivity? Are we just not adopting technologies that would make us more productive? I'd love to have a glimmer as to what the root cause of that is.
> I think there is a lot of room to improve the visual display of code, but I don't think much of it is as the token level.

I absolutely agree - the power of mathematics isn't so much that people find it easier to read ∊ for set membership testing, or ⊥ for nil/undefined, it's that one can encode new concepts concisely in new notation. For example: div, grad and curl [1]. What's needed isn't more maths symbols in code, it's more flexible syntax markup.

He forgot about Microsoft's first attempt at making a Flash/vector competitor, Liquid Motion[1]. It was out around the same time Flash 3/4 started taking off. They later tried again with Silverlight which was a nice effort but horrible timing with mobile about to kill plugins just a couple years later.

Liquid Motion seemed like it could do some damage as DHTML was huge from IE 3/4 and it had the developers on their side because Netscape was wallowing and sucked (document.layers), but they just dropped it. They also did that with tablets and phones so Microsoft usually needs a successful example they can innovate on it seems, otherwise they fumble a bit.

> Do you mean to say that 33% of quantifiably obese adults have unusually efficient gut bacteria?

Its not implausible that a substantial share of them do; there's a lot of interesting hints in recent research suggesting that elements of modern lifestyles in the US may have substantially affected gut microbiomes over the last several generations, starting with very early life changes that affect the way they get initially established.

An important part of the obesity epidemic -- though almost certainly not its sole cause; diet and activity pattern changes with effects other than via the composition of the microbiome certainly exist -- may well be widespread disruption of normal gut microbiome.
Howerver, in NTFS at least, attributes/metadata is a pretty flexible database-like storage, yet are not the same thing as alternate streams (a.k.a. resource forks) which are also supported.
You felt the need to make this comment and that shows you don't have confidence average people will be able to work that out just from looking at the code, which was my point all along.

Of course I know clang handles more, it is also designed as a library for other tools. The fact that clang mixes C and C++ parsing is not a merit, more like a necessary evil. This doesn't contradict my point on code clarity at all.
That would be a reflection of the neighborhood you live in.
Same for me, except that sometimes that last step happens 5 or ten minutes later, in the middle of a meeting or something. The worst part is that a button labelled "pause" can trigger an unpause action. It should really remember what the button said at the time it was pressed. I would mind a lot less if I happened to be playing audio 10 minutes later and it randomly paused due to an earlier press of the pause button.

Hello,

In order to become a great developer one must work alongside great developers. With everything I do I strive to put out the best work possible in the most efficient manner, whether it be building tap handles for homebrew, or coding a project. When coding I define the best solution as the simplest solution. Far too often code is written in a manner where only a select few can understand it, I believe this is a dangerous position to find oneself and always strive to write clean and understandable code. I believe that how a product looks is just as important as how well it functions. You can have a very powerful product, but if the interface is not clean and intuitive to the user, most will not use it to the full potential.
You would be surprised how the logic for a c compiler is pretty densely compressed, even in C code. You don't actually gain too much by switching to haskell or ocaml (I have done experiments).
I would imagine it to be a fact of life for library developers.

> Boaler said a big problem is that math teachers themselves are math-traumatized. They came through a system very similar to the one in which they work. Elementary school teachers in particular often feel insecure about math.

This is incredibly important to understand. I know a number of middle grades teachers (not math or science) who "aren't math people". Their anxieties significantly hamper their ability to help their students when math-related things come up in class (statistics in a social sciences class, for instance). Or if a student wants to go to a trusted teacher for help outside that teacher's subject area.

Similarly, and this is really bad, they can't calculate students' grades! I've witnessed this one several times with a friend, and wish I could sit with her every time she worked out her grades so it will stop happening:

Test is out of 100 points. 10 points of extra credit. Calculate the students percentage as X/110. WTF, it's no longer extra credit, the top score (110) is still 100% (instead of 110%), and now 90 points (should be 90%, an A-) becomes an 82% (B-)!
> butchered to satiate their hatred towards the "elite"

The elite are the people at the top. Being as this head was chopped off in Dr. Guillotin's invention at the behest of the people running his country, I'd say he was no longer part of a noble, elite class when he took his last breath.

He may have been smart, but he was not smart enough to avoid being on the violent, rapacious Ferme générale, which expropriated wealth for the king from working people creating wealth. French society had enough of this parasitism after too many long years, so off to the guillotine with Lavoisier and the king, and good riddance. Chemistry somehow managed to progress after his death.

Nowadays we have the heir LP's sending money to VC's, "activist shareholders" trying to steal more from the workers at corporations creating wealth, judges and bondholders in the US trying to use their dirty deals with Argentina's old junta to steal more from Argentina. The USA is rife with parasites, and many feel the same way about our modern parasites as those that lead Lavoisier to the guillotine.
The only thing holding back SVG is laptops. Most phones have enough pixel density that SVGs look great and are the right choice for most non-text, non-photo assets. But pixel density is low enough on most laptops that they look fuzzy. Low-end tablets have the same issue but no one really cares about hi-if experiences on those devices.

I think it often comes down to what's the easiest asset workflow that gets us a good result. From that perspective, 1x raster + 2x raster is less work than 1x raster + SVG
