Well, lucky you. For the rest of the world though, Internet isn't a thing to be taken for granted. Sure it works 99% of the time, but it's not like electricity which work 99.999999% of the time, and then you have workarounds like batteries and gas tanks and stuff.

And by "rest of the world" I don't mean third world countries or something. AFAIK Internet infrastructure in the US sucks hard compared to Europe, and here in Europe the reliability of the Internet is still not good enough feel like it's electricity.

I have the same experience. If it is already sluggish on a desktop browser, it has to be terrible on a phone.
Angular2 also felt a bit over engineered to me. With text templates and component decorators.

I used React for a year now and would probably consider Preact for new projects. I can use most of the React stuff I already know with a smaller and faster framework.
Hmm, not client side I haven't.

Wouldn't it be easier to draft a set of design principles for the project? What I mean is if you really need a single page application, and usually you don't, that can be accomplished easily with turbolinks. If you really need to build DOM elements on the fly, that can be done really easily with raw JavaScript, which is fairly powerful on its own these days.

I just don't see it.
Not all the funds are that high. The .18% vanguard quotes is their real, across customers, result. Their more active funds are higher (like VEXPX at .49%) while their larger scale Admiral funds are often as low as .05% (like VTSAX).

Vanguard ETFs offer the same rates as the equivalent Admiral class shares, so services like Wealthfront use those. Wrapping Vanguard is a lot easier these days ;)

Cars and motorbikes are two different things but they can be compared as means to get from one place to another. It isn't very hard to use the same analogy with angular x React concerning the development of web interfaces.
Yes, billiard ball collisions are not actually perfectly elastic, but they are about as close as you are likely to encounter in everyday life.
While I'm totally pro-React for my own development projects, I appreciate the fact that Angular 2 comes will a full set of predefined practices, so that people who work with in are more "interchangeable" than in case of React. If two different developers write a project in React, the project will likely have very different sets of libraries and approaches. With Angular 2, it's the opposite: two different developers will write their Angular 2 projects more or less the same way. This can be valuable in enterprise environment.
Winning the leadership isn't the same as winning an election, both Labour and the Tories have a history of choosing leaders from the extremes of their party then not being able to get into power.

Labour needs to stop blaming the media for their woes and get on with making themselves acceptable to the general electorate.

So an "independent institution" gets to use the power of government rifles to force you to pay tribute for a product you might never use. If it's independent, then why is the government working as their collection agency? How independent is it really? If your collections infrastructure can get cut off by the government at any time, where's the incentive to stay truly independent? I would offer that most organizations won't bite the hand that feeds them.

>> It's not a tax by design though it may feel like one.

If I'm forced to pay money to the government for a public "good," it's either a tax or extortion -- there's no other way to define it.

It doesn't matter if the cause is "worthy" or not -- it's a tax. Why not let the people that consume the product pay for the product? Imagine if the government forced everyone to buy a Spotify subscription. It's the same exact thing.
If you remove the abstractions down to "someone emits some electromagnetic radiation" then yeah it makes no sense. Just like saying "someone out there is mixing hydrocarbons with rocks and dumping it on the ground that you may or may not care about".

It is weird - and the recommendation of using angular for model/controller and react for the view is more peculiar - how would that work?
You can't say the clouds aren't moving because no instrument is sensitive enough to be sure there's exactly zero movement. All you can say is they're moving slower than some maximum speed. You could estimate that maximum speed from the pixel size and duration of the animation. Then your statement would be "the clouds are moving slower than X m/s which is too slow for real clouds.". That's then quite a sensible criticism of a suspected faked video. But "they're not moving" is nearly meaningless.
Many of them already achieve the same result by saying "you can receive our online streams so pay up", I don't think underfunded public broadcasters in Europe are busy bribing chipset manufacturers to add features their customers don't want
> I don't get why people are still advocating Octave as a Matlab alternative.

Because it is the closest thing to a drop in replacement, which is what you need when taking a class or following a tutorial based on MATLAB. Trying to use a different language and follow along is a much more advanced challenge and can be borderline impossible for a MOOC with an autograder or a class with a dusty professor.

I wasn't very happy with octave and I wouldn't use it for an independent project.. but I can't say how much of that is the pesky little octave specific bugs and how much is that I wouldn't like MATLAB's syntax when it is perfectly implemented. I suppose I could make the same criticisms of R as much of its frustratingly odd behavior comes from its history in emulating an old proprietary language's syntax..

Wow I never thought I'll see someone else with my same concern. I really hate using too much third-party code (to the point that I need a generator just to start), and I like knowing what each and every file in my project is for/does.

I would really appreciate it if you'd share the application structure you use when building a client side MVC with vanilla JS/Jquery.

I know there wouldn't be a single structure to rule them all, but I think if developers start sharing structures that work regardless of frameworks used, it would be much better than sharing frameworks that are very complex and get replaced every year.

The article talks about "the future of publishing now being placed in the hands of few" - twas ever thus though, Rupert Murdoch and his like have controlled publishing in a way that us as the consumers had no control over.

It does seem certain that governments are going to get interested very quickly when they realise their control over the media has become greatly diminished, and Facebook is going to bear the brunt of this.

Completely agree (read this after posting my comment above). Having rules about structure & organisation rather than frameworks that would have their own rules seems much more pragmatic.
The article seems to be biased in favour of Angular.

The option of using any flavour of JS or compiles-to-JS is presented as a negative for React, compared to Angular's decision to go all in on Typescript. I would say that being able to stick with standard JS, for varying values of "standard", is a good thing for library developers and very large corporate teams. Having options like Elm or Clojurescript are good for small teams or individuals who are looking for some advantage over their larger competitors, such as a higher chance of building a correct system on the first try, or being able to build faster than me to a smaller, more expressive codebase. It was this line of reasoning that led me away from JQuery back when everyone seemed to think JS = JQ. When I made the jump to Clojure/script, I scored an auto generated Swagger interface for the back end, which saved a ton of effort on documentation and Q&A, and the test suite has stayed very simple and small - I ended up not needing anything like Sinon's mocks and spies.

The infographic suggests that because Angular tries to take on larger role in an MVC framework, the complexity that resulted from that decision makes it better suited for advanced developers. React, with it's tight focus on the View, is better suited for amateurs, who will then have to make a bunch of architectural decisions (Redux, Immutable, React Router?). I would say that the opposite is true; an all-in-one framework is best suited for younger developers who have the humility to know that they do not want to make these types of decisions themselves. If you are going to build a large application, then the ability to integrate a selection of third party solutions for various architectural concerns can save you a huge amount of risk, in the greater scheme of things, but evaluating those options and designing solutions for the issues that come with multi-way integrations is a task for experienced developers (although there is plenty of low hanging fruit in banging out UI components and wiring up CRUD APIs for junior devs).

You should not feel like a complete loser because the interviewers are just people like you and their decision says nothing about you as a person, they just think they didn't see what they were looking for, they may be wrong and even if they are not wrong, it says nothing about your potential.

That said I don't think any advice here will really help. I've been in a similar position years ago and you have to experience actually getting into one of these places and then realizing everyone's just the same as you to feel better about this. I'm in the opposite situation to you now and trying to get out of a large tech company and do my own thing. I would say keep applying if this is what you want and keep practicing the interview style questions - personally going over algorithms and data structures without any other motivation besides interviews is hard for me. If you can work on something of your own, even a game or something not important do so, because when you finally do get in to one of these companies, you might find out (perhaps sooner than you expected) that you want to get out and having experience doing your own thing might make that easier.

The WSJ article from which the OP cribs is much more informative, though doesn't seem to have gotten enough upvotes in past submissions:

http://www.wsj.com/articles/sec-investigating-tesla-for-poss...

The OP doesn't crib the most relevant part, which concerns the question of why this particular fatality (out of the many attributed to any given auto manufacturer on any given week) has such a seemingly high standard: Tesla says it learned of the fatality on May 16 but didn't send an investigator to confirm that the vehicle was using Autopilot until May 18, which is why the fatality wasn't included in their May 18 filing, a filing that was published in the event of Tesla selling 2.8 million shares:

> The SEC is scrutinizing whether Tesla should have disclosed the accident as a “material” event, or a development a reasonable investor would consider important, according to the person familiar with the matter. The SEC’s inquiry is in a very early stage and may not lead to any enforcement action by regulators, the person said.

> Tesla learned of the crash soon after it happened and informed auto-safety regulators of the incident on May 16, when it had just begun investigating the accident, the company said last week. Tesla at that time hadn’t yet determined the car was using Autopilot. Tesla said it alerted regulators to the crash sooner than rules require.

> The company didn’t disclose the accident in securities filings, such as the one from May 18 when it prepared to sell $2 billion in stock, which included nearly 2.8 million shares sold by Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk. Tesla has said Mr. Musk’s sale was triggered by tax requirements. The share sale took place May 18 and May 19.

I can believe that the timing was coincidental rather than shady...but Tesla's "A Tragic Loss" press release [0] really left me uneasy. From its first graf:

> We learned yesterday evening that NHTSA is opening a preliminary evaluation into the performance of Autopilot during a recent fatal crash that occurred in a Model S...Following our standard practice, Tesla informed NHTSA about the incident immediately after it occurred.

"Yesterday evening" is the only specific chronological reference other than the press release's timestamp of June 30. You had to go to news reports to learn that the accident happened on May 7. Otherwise, you'd be perfectly justified in thinking that the accident happened the week preceding June 30 and that Tesla jumped to let the public know of the tragedy.

One of Tesla's most devoted fans, nevermind a former member of SEAL Team 6, got killed in a horrific accident and someone in Tesla PR felt the need to throw this layer of obfuscation for the masses? I guess longtime automakers have done worse, but they don't go out of their way to brag how extra transparent they're being as they revolutionize the world. Saying that the accident happened on May 7 but the facts weren't known until later would have satisfied me, as I imagine it would have for others. What was the point of the flimsy misdirection in the press release?

> Wouldn't it be easier to draft a set of design principles for the project?

Isn't this what a framework gives you out of the box? Hiring should become easier if you can simply hire another Angular dev to join your large team. I'm assuming that your in-house design principles won't be as thoroughly battle tested as something like Angular or React is which has received tens of thousands if not millions of man hours of testing and refinement over the years.

I'm not really advocating for or against, since I've never used a large framework like this in a team environment, but there must be benefits. Lots of smart people aren't using it because they are dummies that can't do better.

It's been a long time since I've used Matlab (it was for a diff eq class), but isn't R, with vectors as its primary datatype, much more similar to Matlab than Scipy? Not that Scipy or Pandas is bad, but they have to work quite hard around the fundamentals of Python's syntax to emulate the same behavior of R/MATLAB.
I'm not so sure I agree there. Not that React isn't fantastic, but I remember a recent release adding support for SVG elements. If I don't use any, it would be great to strip out that functionality - React is not a small library. Alternatives like Preact show that you can have a core set of functionality at a much smaller size.

With the prevalence of npm and mini-libraries I'd be interested to see if the size of React could be cut down and put into optional components.
Perhaps we could call it "pre-ssert"? ;)

Great idea! My company requires external libraries licenses to be revieved every half a year and it usually takes a couple of days to do so. Your project could be a real time-saver. Unfortunately the integration with Maven does not seem to work in most cases, if it did I would already have sent the link to our CTO.
Depending on a single revenue source is the exact opposite of being independent; which is why they are always that outraged if someone proposes some reduction in funding. They are 100% dependent on parliament will. (...whether this is something you want your media to be, I don't know. It's a very German thing.)

But of course it's not only financially. The German Rundfunkrat is basically designed to be the very essence of what other cultures might dispraise as corporatism. - Despite it's justification as some cross section of society.

I'm not necessarily against the idea but the institutional design of German state media is arguably very bad.
As an amusing anecdote, my friend was working with a _really_ slow query (it took literally days to run a query), and their consult/software vendor/whatnot that had written the query kept telling that your data is so large/complex that you really need to look into big data systems like Hadoop.

Turns out the SQL query was running on for-loops. With some tinkering my friend got rid of the loops, and after that the query run in less than three minutes. No more talking about Hadoop there.
