In addition to Timezone and Payroll legalities, a number of companies are worried about IP rights too. In the US, the laws are generally understood already by US companies, whereas the legal structure and concepts around IP isn't as clear cut when you employ someone in say Brazil, China or India etc.

Not that any of those Countries are bad, but the complexity for a smaller business that doesn't already have a footprint in that Country is pretty high. For a company that already has a footprint in another Country and may already have formed their own corporation there as a subsidiary then the barrier is far less with respect to Payroll and IP type issues.

Another point, a company in CA that employs a person in say Kansas, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Wyoming etc, will find they can pay people well but still save a significant amount of money over hiring locally. All while having employees close to the same timezone and without any other barriers to overcome. Not to mention a west coast company having east coast employees can help with support and overlap, like wise if you reverse it.

The TSA has nothing to do with Heathrow where it was found, though. (I don't think in the UK anyone can be fined: if there's any belief of malice, you're likely to be dealt with under normal criminal law such as conspiracy to murder, or potentially terrorism related offences; if there's not, you can either surrender your property or return landside).

> he F-35 is a 1.5 Trillion black hole; a stark lesson on the sunk cost fallacy. The F-22 exists, and works.

You compare fleet of 3k aircraft + operation costs for 80 years with fleet of 180 F-22 jets.
Also F-22 can't fly from aircraft and amphibious assault ships, and do most of the ground attack missions.

AeroMexico has a monopoly on flights from Latin America to Asia. (Technically, you can fly from Brazil to Abu Dhabi or something, but only AM goes to east Asia.)

The AM flights run from Mexico City to Narita (a third-tier city in Japan) and Shanghai, usually on 787s. They may add Peking.

Similar services are available connecting through LAX, SFO, or DFW and those are often faster if you're going to other Asian cities or connecting into MEX on the way.

But somehow those AM flights usually carry ticket prices 30-50% higher than the equivalent service through US airports. That's often a $500+ premium. And the flights still fill up. AM catering may be a bit better in economy than on US carriers but the service is mostly identical.

Turns out, that's what it's worth to avoid US airport procedures. The value in the market for avoiding TSA, the lack of sterile transit, US customs and immigration, intrusive slow humiliating US embassy visa operations, and the random nightmares passengers are treated to once in a while is about $500.

A bargain, really.
I think this is pretty close to the truth. Investment capital getting out tech should cause people to be more discriminating in their business proposals, and the market will adjust accordingly. If anything, this will help prevent a crash.
Anonymous review:

I tried this process because it sounded pretty fun and unique.

One warning I have for anyone interested is that there are some big waiting times involved. I'll share my timeline. Some of the lags were on my end, but I was assured I had as much time as I needed.

- Day 0-6 - First contact
- Day 7 - Assigned work sample
- Day 21 - Submitted work sample
- Day 62 - Work sample results returned
- Day 72 - Paid work day
- Day 79 - Work day report completed
- Day 85 - Final decision

Overall there were 21 days where they were waiting on me and 47 days where I was waiting on them. This seemed to me like a lot of waiting but maybe it is normal.

I probably worked 15 hours on the work sample, 8 hours on the work day, and 8 more hours putting together the report after the work day.
To this day, I still have "SSSS" (Secondary Security Screening Selection) printed on my boarding pass and have to go through advanced screening every time I go to the U.S (relatively frequently) as a Canadian.

Swab my clothing, dump my backpack, open my laptop up and mess around with it, rub up and down my arms and legs, rough up my privates, the whole shebang.

I can imagine I'm probably on some list somewhere so I have to go through this "random" and time consuming screening every time.

I was once asked why I had a laptop with me, and why such a device was justifiable and necessary for a young male who works in this industry.

Seriously though, it's common knowledge that "SSSS" on your boarding pass means you're going through advanced security screening. What's the point of this if a malicious person can simply see the label and decide not to go through with the flight afterall?
> Can anyone name a language that they've grown to like more the more they learned about it? I would guess maybe only those in the LISP family would make the cut.

You're correct that a few of the Lisps have had this effect for me (Scheme, Common Lisp, EuLisp, Le-Lisp, elisp), but there have been a few dialects that I came to like less and less as I learned them (note that I do not necessarily dislike them, rather I'm disappointed by them): Clojure, Newlisp, and Racket, for example.

There are a few non-Lisps that I find myself liking more and more as I use them: Kitten and Mantra. They're both concatenative languages that take somewhat different approaches from the usual Forth-likes. I'm still not super proficient with them, though, so it's possible that the derivative of my fondness for them will invert yet. I've also had that experience with ksh (believe it or not) and Vim (a DSL for editing, if you will).

There have also been a few languages that have had a sort of "roller coaster" effect: at first they excited me greatly, then as I learned them better and better, I liked them more, then less, then more…. Some examples that come to mind are C#, Datalog, Haskell, Modula-3, OCaml, Prolog, Rust, and Standard ML.
I thought interns were unpaid. If that was the case then I would earn exactly the same.
Location: NYC / Seattle / Remote

Remote: Yes

Web/mobile developer with 10+ years experience, been freelancing for the past 2 years. I've worked with 5-person startups and Fortune 500 companies (and in-between). Most of my experience is web-related (backend and full-stack), but I'm hoping to do more iOS development in the near future and would prefer those types of projects. If you've got some junior devs who need mentoring, I'd be happy to come in and pair program with them for awhile.

Location-wise, I'll be in NYC and Seattle this summer and may be able to accomodate either for an on-site project, though remote / partially-onsite would be best.

Tech: JS (React, Redux, ES6, node.js, etc.), iOS (Swift), Ruby (Rails, Sinatra), Java, SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL).

Frou Williams – Our Addiction to Technology
Pew has released research on the most narcissistic presidents of the United States. Some pretty widely-celebrated leaders are at the top of the narcissism charts [1].

In actuality, your statement in addition to Pew's research is unfounded and extremely fuzzy. Where do you and others get off on deriving a person's social leadership capabilities with their individual psychological leanings?

Funny to see FDR right near the top of the list, because it has always been a surprisingly unpopular view of his presidency that his Trump-like ability to manipulate the media to his advantage (his fireside chats and his rather quotable speeches) led to the American peoples' renewed confidence in the markets even though it took WWII to truly end the economic hardships more than a decade later. If do wish to wholly agree that narcissism does not make good social leadership, we must then question and re-align the most widely-held views of the 20th century in the US.

Absolutely - it's the weirdest thing ever that he says this - will he turn down the medal, or just the cash reward - someone who is looking to take your money says something like this.

It's a non-topic really, compensation for winning an award, it's bizarre he plays it up like this.
Have you personally done or seen this done this then?

Backend Engineer with a love of Python: DENVER ONSITE $100k-$150k and equity (based on experience)

Us: n.io is an innovative software company. We believe there should be seamless connection of any device, any measurable and any signal--unrestricted in volume, real-time and intelligent. The n.io platform empowers that vision. We also believe in self-deprecating humor, the power of caffeine, BBQ lunches, and comfortable pants.

Our Interviews: We start by getting to know candidates first, a quick video chat to open the lines of communication and get YOUR questions answered. Our second step is a technical discussion, where we can find out about your skills and you can ask us about our stack and various processes. Then it's up the ladder for final steps.

You: If developing transformative software is your thing, this is the job for you. The n.io platform itself operates as a backend but our engineers work across the entire stack. Responsibilities will include writing code to support the integration of the n.io platform as well as systems that rely on it, diagnosing issues both internally and externally, and architecting complex systems for a unique portfolio of projects that work in true real-time. Current projects include industrial internet and precision agriculture.

The purpose of the right against self-incrimination is to prevent forced confessions and torture. With that in mind, it makes sense to draw a line between compelling someone to provide their fingerprint or DNA and forcing someone to divulge something they know. When the state has the right to make someone talk, how does it go about it? Also, it's impossible to know whether someone actually knows the passcode to a device, so someone could end up imprisoned indefinitely just for forgetting a password.

I think you meant illegal. Either way, I think they are mostly concerned with signals that interfere with the normal operation of other devices. So you could operate your 4G base station inside a Faraday cage to experiment with as long as you're not leaking signal that interferes with anybody else.

I found myself in a similar situation about year and a half ago wanting to learn recommender systems. What worked best for me was the already mentioned coursera recommender system course. Then if you can, go to RecSys conference (this year happening in fall in Boston). Then the absolute go to book for recommender systems is "Recommender systems handbook" - it has second edition that came out last year and this book covers everything from math, practical issues/architecture, to industry use cases etc.

Good luck!
No, he can't. That email was probably the hacked one, and Theymos locked the Bitcointalk account ages ago. And that's a dumb method of proof compared to cryptographic ones anyway - how many times has Bitcointalk been hacked now? 2? 3?
I make sure to seperate work and home life as much as possible. Basically my wife and I commute to home and work together almost every day. So we do our "work debrief" almost every time we drive home. This is nice because it gets all that stuff out of the way when we are in the car. I make sure that my work device stays put away or on the charger and I don't check it. It's hard to do but I find that I am happier when I don't check it. But you also need something to fill your time to get your mind off of work, so a hobby/family/friends would also be advisable.
Save Yourself from Years of Turmoil by Using Docker Today
This doesn't seem that remarkable. It's one thing if you have the combination to a safe and won't give it up; the police will have to get into the safe some other way. On the other hand, if it locks with a physical key which you happen to keep on your belt, I doubt any court would think twice before ordering you to hand it over.
To Use Physical or to Use Virtual: That Is the Container Deployment Question
> According to Wikipedia the $90 million is without an engine, which is just weird.

Yes, a plane without engines is just a pretty mockup that sits on the ground. But, from Lockheed Martin's perspective, the engine is government furnished equipment. LM does not build engines. The government has a totally separate contract with Pratt & Whitney for the development and production of F-135 engines, and another separate contract with Rolls Royce for the development and production of the LiftSystem in the F-35B.

This is why the costs are given as "without engine". Because the engine is a separate contract.
This may sound counter-intuitive, but intermittent fasting might help. I've always done a 4/3 (four days eating normally, three days eating at 20-25% of a normal intake) when I wanted to lose weight, and I've come to believe that the benefits come solely from

1) that even with the slight overeating that comes on days when you eat (probably 20%) it ends up being equivalent to an overall 20% calorie reduction and

2) it teaches you how to operate better and feel better when you're hungry, simply because it ceases to be an uncommon experience. You're hungry at least a couple of times a week, and you get used to not doing anything about it, and you know it will be over soon.

I have to admit that personally, being hungry has always made me perform better - it adds a desperation element that works for me. It does make me testy and impatient, though, and that testiness starts to fade once I'm in my 2nd or 3rd week of 4/3. The everyday irritation of calorie restriction just doesn't work for me; I can't last more than a week or two at my best. My average period of doing 4/3 is about 3 months. It's a fairly easy way to drop about 25 lbs.
You neglected to mention Méthode.
So in the beginning Electric Communities was going to do large-scale, distributed virtual worlds (think MMORPGs as shopping malls...) with real security. The original plan was to use Joule, but negotiations didn't work out and while waiting around a couple of engineers created a reasonable subset in this new language called java. This subset eventaully because the original E language. Crock was the slides and presentations guy of the core team, so after knowing him for a while as mostaly a non-coder it was odd to see him pop up again and have such a big impact on the javascript world.
This seems like a blatant overstepping of bounds.

Although Tor is specifically called out, it would seem as though this would apply to usage of any and all proxy or VPN services.

Can anyone else confirm this to be the case?

Oof, bummer. Your experience is slower than average. We ran into a grading crunch when we launched our Enterprise product. When you submit your work to us, your submission is anonymous. Three engineers grade each submission.

Platform Engineers will experience the greatest wait periods. The other roles tend to be quicker.

Expected time-frame:

* Proceed from application to work sample: 24 hours.

* Complete work sample: Up to the candidate. We build them to take 2-6 hours.

* Grade work sample: 1-4 weeks.

* Schedule work day: 1 week.

* Receive decision: 2-5 days.

Thanks for taking our time to try the process out, it is appreciated. The method is constantly under improvement.
