I think you're right--Rust is harder to learn than Go--but I also think that doesn't really matter, since the important thing is whether people fluent in both languages can write code faster in Rust or Go. I have not seen many if any instances in which people who actually know Rust write code more slowly in Rust than they would in other languages (modulo compiler performance). The borrow check is, like, less than 5% of the errors I see, and the errors are at this point not significantly harder to fix than a misspelled variable name.

Exactly. There are TONS of new grad nurses out there who can't get jobs. Some of them go to medical call centers or outpatient clinics because they can't get any actual clinical or hospital experience. I know about 25 people just like this in the Bay Area.

What hospitals want but can't hire is some nurse with 3 years ER experience, 4 years ICU experience, who teaches ACLS and is willing to work for 65k.

It's just like the "engineering shortage" ... if they increase salaries, they can get what they claim they need/can't get.

Otherwise, they just need to hire and train new grads, which they totally don't want to do.
New Zealand has a shortage of sonographers and a growing MR tech shortage.
Sonographers were paid more to work at private clinics and the public system lost staff and have been forced to outsource the work, leading to more private work and more staff leaving for private clinics. Seeking to try and prevent this happening with MRI as well as ultrasound there are moves to loosen regulation and allow staff with minimal/no training in MRI (but trained in radiography) to perform MR scans. It's interesting to watch, somehow the government health boards (and the odd private employer who can't stomach paying their staff properly) seem to think capitalism doesn't apply to them and that their crap wages aren't responsible for their staff shortages.

You're still talking macro 101. I'm not talking about nationwide unemployment figures here.

The key is that wages for /engineers/ will fall if funding and jobs disappear in the tech sector. Today's wages for engineers are high and will be unsustainable when things go bust.

How much they will fall is anyone's guess. But the reasoning behind why they will fall is very straightforward.

I did something sort of crazy when the last recruiter asked me about my salary. I lied.

The number I told him I was being paid at the time was actually the number it would take for me to leave my job. He came back with an offer that was slightly higher than that and I accepted.

Perhaps that's not the best idea?

Spotify doesn't pay artists anything. They pay the rights holders, and they in turn pay artists whatever is in their contract.

I'm very confused by this approach. You have two types of users "free and ad-supported" and paid subscribers.

For the subscribers, it's easy. Take the amount they pay, take a service fee, and the rest is allocated between the artists they play that month.

The "free" users, take the ad revenue generated by the user (up to a cap) and allocate to the artists they play during a month.

Pay on play really does not seem to work when you have two different revenue streams and you're trying to balance both.
I agree with this. Every product category in existence has a range of good and bad versions. I think people are smart enough to not lump all VR experiences together just like watching a bad movie or eating a bad pizza doesn't put you off them for life.

Also, you can't stop people releasing whatever VR products they want so even if poisoning the well was real you can't do anything about it.

That's for their actual customers, the recruiters. Recruiters want to know when somebody updates because that's usually a sign they're about to start looking. It's a big deal.

In case of a UI, the trick is not so much to write an abstraction for this, but to write the application logic such a way that it does not depend on the UI framework.

Your own UI code should be limited to displaying the data with the help of the framework. This minimal UI code should depend on the application code and that should be the only dependency between the two.

There are simple techniques to keep view logic and application logic decoupled, for example by introducing a separate data structures prepared and optimized for view components to consume. An added bonus of this is testability of both application and UI logic without opening a browser.
Oh God. I travelled to Newcastle to meet friends and went out on the town on a Friday night. My big mistake was waiting until 10:30pm to depart, because nearly everything was closed or getting ready to close at midnight - Newcastle's "favourite cocktail bar" was unable to make any cocktails.

From Spiegel: The midwives are demanding 30 percent greater pay for the services they provide that are covered by insurance providers with the national healthcare system.

I always wondered if the people who designed Lenny know about how some reps purposely call them to keep their own metrics up. Like, they think they are sticking it to the telemarketer, but really the telemarketer WANTS to screw around and take forever on the call so their performance bonus increases.

I suspect that the authors of Lenny would think that was the best possible outcome. Stop a telemarketer annoying people AND wasting the money their employers? Sounds like a pretty good outcome.
> Mr. Mitchell created a stir in 2008 when he told a British radio station that his contacts in military and intelligence circles had told him that “we’ve been visited on this planet, and the U.F.O. phenomena is real,” but that governments had “covered up” the matter for at least 60 years.

The current article (from bbc.co.uk) does a poor job covering the issue. In summary, Apple iOS uses a validation system to ensure Touch ID sensors are not been maliciously replaced or modified. The Touch ID sensor has access to the iPhone Security Enclave, where fingerprint data is kept. A malicious sensor could, hypothetically, steal fingerprints from an iPhone user unknowingly. This could be used to unlock the phone and make purchases through Apple Pay without the owner's permission. To prevent this, Apple uses a validation system whenever the Touch ID sensor is repaired. When iPhone is serviced by an authorised Apple service provider or Apple retail store for changes that affect the touch ID sensor, the validation paring is updated. Third-party repairs to the sensor will not update the pairing, and will fail validation when using Touch ID. This validation error is shown to users as the mysterious "Error 53".

From the Daily Dot article, if a user encounters this error, the current resolution is a full device replacement. I don't think Apple expected many people to encounter this issue, so it seems reasonable why they chose this option.

This is a great security feature for users, and I'm really glad Apple engineers considered this situation. Unfortunately the media is blowing this and leaving crucial details about what's happening and the reasoning behind it.

Here is Apple's statement on the matter:

We take customer security very seriously and Error 53 is the result of security checks designed to protect our customers. iOS checks that the Touch ID sensor in your iPhone or iPad correctly matches your device's other components. If iOS finds a mismatch, the check fails and Touch ID, including for Apple Pay use, is disabled. This security measure is necessary to protect your device and prevent a fraudulent Touch ID sensor from being used. If a customer encounters Error 53, we encourage them to contact Apple Support.
Hm. You brag on your own LinkedIn profile about several interesting things: "Increased the number of invites generated from "people you may know"​ recommendations by 50%", "Intelligent blending of ads into the feed - able to increase sponsored content revenue by 50% without harming engagement".

So okay, you're already very familiar with LinkedIn's misleading dark patterns. You are, for instance, making ads look like real content in order to get people to mistakenly trust them more.

This makes your claim that you're hard at work "trying to improve the clarity of our products" mean something different than I had expected.
Bay Area's real estate is actually pretty cheap, considering how much economical output the area has and how desirable the location has been historically.

Look at Vancouver, Hongkong, Shanghai, Moscow, Tokyo, all have waaaaay lower average household income than San Francisco Bay Area, yet wil much more expensive realestate price.

I would like to see more granular numbers for how long people spend talking with chat bots, because that's a distinct possibility! I've seen numbers like "x thousand hours of conversation", but my impression is that it's tens of thousands of people messing around with it for 5-10 minutes rather than anyone (or no more than a few outliers) spending any significant amount of time with it.

As for the reddit irc bot, that's a genuinely cool and useful project, but that's querying a curated dataset rather than having a coherent conversation or identity, so I think the intentions are fairly different. On the other hand, if you had a bot that only queried the comments made by a longtime user, you could get a pretty life-like effect!
Film: The Human Face of Big Data
I can't agree with any of this.

1. It's difficult to think it's too big. jQuery 1.x, compressed and minified, is somewhere around 35kB. jQuery 2.x is smaller. This is a relatively small proportion of a web page. It's smaller than frameworks like Ember or Angular.

2. Some of the useful ideas have been integrated (querySelector/querySelectorAll is a popular one) but that's not really the full story. jQuery is still good at abstracting over some of the differences in implementation, and the API is better (for example, doing an AJAX request in jQuery is much nicer than in vanilla JS)

3. 'IE6-8 and Android 1-2' aren't dead. True – if I were building a modern consumer-focused app or site, it might be possible to make the business decision that it wasn't worth supporting them. But you also have to remember that penetration is higher in some industries and countries, and if you need to remain accessible to these then you need to take that into account.

I don't doubt that we will start to see fewer libraries depending on jQuery as support for older UAs is phased out. But you're overstating the current case for it.

That example is considerably less non-sensical than most online conversatations.

I've read it is very accurate: even twins who look very much alike won't fool it.

But it still has some funny characteristics: if you train it for two people/faces (you can scan multiple times), it will happily let both people log into the account.

Another gotcha: if I go for a coffee I usually lock my PC (Windows-L). If I then go too slowly, it will recognize me again and log me back in, leaving the pc unlocked.

They are. The lockout laws actually come from Newcastle, which had an even worse problem. Alcohol fueled violence has been and remains a massive problem in Australia. In fact, drinking in Australia remains a massive problem: we have some of the worst cases of binge-drinking and alcoholism rates in the world.

I agree with @monkeywork, i think Microsoft is now in better than what it was in 2003/4, At the time when i worked there we knew Linux was a challenge, MSSQL, AD, Exhcange all had still competition(sun one Ldap, domino mail/workflow) and was fighting hard in fact i would say Domino with it's workflow was in better position. With Azure, SQL Always on, .net and solid Windows server i expect Microsoft to be around for long atleast another 1o to 12 years in dominant position in enterprise segment.
Your chances of being assaulted in Newcastle before the lockout laws were very high. I doubt you would be having much fun in the Emergency Department, getting stitched up.

PENILE CODE – Short Film Corner – Cannes Film Festival – 2015
When I first immigrated to Australia I was shocked at the tone that journalists used, even in mainstream publications. Turns out it's just an Aussie thing. People can argue about the merits of that tone but that article fits pretty well with Aussie journal style, especially for an editorial.
The media did. There's not much point in making an example out of drunk people, because violent drunk people aren't thinking of the consequences.

The only way of making this work would be a register of offenders who can't go to pubs because of their drunkenness. Given that we tried to have mandatory pre-commitment for gamblers (which allowed them to gamble, but put limits on it) and this utterly failed, I'm not surprised that the government realised that lockout laws were the only way forward.

Incidentally, do you have any facts to back up that lockout laws are "sabotaging" the NSW economy?

As for not BBQ'ing in a Strata property - that's ill-informed. There are currently a set of amendments that hopefully will be enacted by July 2016 that prevent people's smoke from drifting into adjoining properties. The amendments allow a ban order to be made if the tenant makes a nuisance or hazard through their actions. If the tenant doesn't comply, then they get taken to the tribunal, who can then fine them a lot of money.

Don't see what the issue is here. If your cigarette or BBQ smoke is interfering with another tenant, then you should be prevented from doing this.

P.S. Malcolm Turnbull knows better than to interfere with State matters, given he's a Federal politician.

Also the medical industry is phasing out the use of 2 year (Associate's RN) and LPNs, which makes the problem worse. They do not like to hire new grad nurses, which makes the problem worse. They haven't given significant raises, which makes the problem worse. 100% of the behavior of nursing employers leads me to believe that there is not actually a shortage, and that everybody just likes to claim that one exists.

BI in large corporations is usually done by people having no clue about the data, producing bullshit results, leading to "insights" to management (who at that point have have no clue that all the cost columns were added up, regardless of currency), leading to a final "product strategy" that gets implemented over the next years, while in all the companies still producing innovation, this is usually done by a rogue team applying common sense and ignoring that strategy all day long.
