I can't agree more. But it's hard. I feel Silicon Valley and NYC became what they are because of cheap real estate and talent pool.

I find it hard to find places with a lot of talent but undervalued real estate these days. Maybe all low hanging fruit is gone.

In Europe, London, Oxbridge, Stockholm are somewhat similar. Insane prices. Berlin and to a certain extent Copenhagen are cheaper. Some smaller locations like Cluj are quite cheap, but maybe a bit outside common tech circles.

> it's no dimethylmercury, or even DMSO

Skimmed an article on the latter…

“DMSO has the unusual property that many individuals perceive a garlic-like taste in the mouth after contact with the skin.” — Darn. Wasn’t quite sure things like these are possible.

“DMSO can cause contaminants, toxins, and medicines to be absorbed through the skin.”

“In Australia it is listed as a schedule 4 poison, and a company has been prosecuted for adding it to products as a preservative.” — What about other countries?! China?

Overall, the kind of information that I wish I didn’t have to know. Useful, but now I’m left to wonder what else am I blissfully unaware of.

It's been my experience that people with a lot of contract work usually end up being copy-paste style programmers who can't make it through our interviews. Not 100% by any means.

Coming through a recruiter means that a) the recruiting contingency fee could end up actually meaning you paid 20% more for the year you get, b) the person feels the need to scale out their effort to find new jobs so confirms my fear about their job history somewhat, and c) means there is another person who may be reaching out to them in a year or two to actively try to get them to leave. This is super sketchy behavior on the part of the recruiting firm, but some of them have such bad internal controls and turnover problems themselves that they will consistently attempt this.
Nice links!

Probably because it's not as simple as it looks. According to a handy copy of A History of the Ancient Near East: ca. 3000-323 BC, by Marc Van de Mieroop,

"The Uruk IV notations seem complicated to us because seven different systems were used, each of which varied the physical shape of the numeral according to what was measured. For example, a sexagesimal system, relying on units with increments of ten and six, was used to account for animals, humans, and dried fish, among other things. A bisexagesimal system, which diverges from the previous one as its units also show increments of two, was used for processed grain products, cheese, and fresh fish. Volumes of grain or surfaces of fields were measured differently. [...] Although the shape of the number signs could differ between systems, the same shapes are found in various systems but sometimes with different values."

Wikipedia, citing Archaic Bookkeeping
Early Writing and Techniques of Economic Administration in the Ancient Near East by Hans J. Nissen, Peter Damerow, and Robert K. Englund (gonna have to get a copy of that one), claims more than a dozen different numeric systems.

So, yay, proto-cuneiform.

Hey friend, I am the author. I ended up reading every verse, and learning Greek and Hebrew on my binge of curiosity, and the Bible continues to impress me. I would say that something that you ask had actually happened, just not in exactly the same ways as you imagine. There are also some factual errors in your post. For example, the Bible has a lot to say about slavery and is directly connected to its abolition. If you're looking for easy introduction on that try Stefan Molyneux's video cast on youtube on this subject (he is an atheist).

It can't possibly have an airfoil. That's got to be a purely symmetrical airfoil shape, otherwise it'd be flipping him over forward violently. I didn't believe this design at first sight, and when I saw it actually flying I was amazed at how dangerous it was. It's basically an air surfboard. Astonishing. The weight distribution is nuts, I can't see how he'd possibly regain control if it flipped backward or forward even once. It'd just tumble out of the sky with you on it.

In the meantime, Prime seems to get less and less available for me here in HI. You go to a product that says "Prime", but then when you attempt to check out it says "actually, this can't be shipped to your destination". This only used to happen with large shipments, but lately it's been happening with small parts as well. It really makes me wonder when it will no longer be worth it to have Prime.
You're absolutely right. Thank you for your suggestion, I think I'll change my own phrasing if I didn't witness the hard work.
Depends on the field and type of work.

If you work from home then sure, the location doesn't matter much. But for more traditional occupations (pretty much anything other than creative work or location-independent business), big cities are better because they offer more opportunities and often higher paying jobs.
> Both YAML and JSON map to data structures in your program; scalars, sequences and mappings.

Of course, your program probably operates on more than just scalars, sequences & maps, which means you still need to convert your JSON structures into application data structures — validating along the way, too.
I don't see how those could work. Since bloom filters can have false positives, the counting filter could end up letting you remove an item that was never added, thereby corrupting the entries for other items in the process.

Detroit is an actual city with deep history. It may be in decline, but it still seems like to have more going on, or at least the potential to have more going on, than small towns.

I don't think so. Sql is declarative though and the engine does the imperative work for you. A simple example of multiple uses:

will do a for each over the list, with X bound to each character.

and the same member definition can also be used to answer
Simpsons = ['bart', 'lisa', 'homer'],
member('brian griffin', Simpsons)?

Typical (WAN) network conditions are not all that different from a small random timeout, and these kind of attacks still work. Adding random noise just means you'll need more samples, but statistics are going to win eventually. I guess a combination of random noise and tight request rate limiting might mitigate this in practice (in exchange for a DoS vector, I suppose).

You know,, Berlin is the capital city of Germany, so your Berlin example exactly supports my point. People who are motivated to succeed naturally flock to a city with access to the largest audience, as long as they can afford it, since that raises your chance of success.

I was just pointing out this Patti Smith person is completely mistaken about what made herself successful, she thinks it's all her doing but she's forgetting she was at the right place at the right time (and of course with the right content she provided). My whole argument is if you compare larger cities with any other smaller towns, everything is easier (only drawback is money), and that's why people naturally flock to larger cities. My argument has nothing to do with whether legwork is necessary or not, it's just about how people can only create "scenes" where it makes sense. It's delusional to think that they could have created it anywhere else.

Slavery was present in the US until 1860 or so, and I think the bible was around a little before that time. The Bible does not specifically condemn the practice of slavery. It gives instructions on how slaves should be treated (Deuteronomy 15:12-15; Ephesians 6:9; Colossians 4:1), but does not outlaw slavery. I would not assert that the Bible has any connection to its abolition.

There's a big misunderstanding out in the world about what exactly "Mozilla" is. The Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit. They are an advocacy group for open internet standards, essentially.

It's repayment in kind, .NET shops won't hire backend candidates without tons of .NET experience.

Enforcing data integrity is great, but I don't see why it has to happen at the filesystem level. There are any number of ways you could solve it while still keeping the RAID functionality at the level of unstructured block devices. I can think of three just off the top of my head:

#1: Do checksumming at the block level. Within each block, the RAID driver reserves a few bytes at the end for a checksum, and verifies them before returning data to the FS. (This would only work if the filesystem supports non-power-of-two block sizes.)

#2: Similar to #1, but pack the checksums for multiple data blocks into a separate dedicated checksum block. (This adds some extra read latency in the worst case, but caching could mitigate it.)

#3: Let the filesystem handle checksumming, but extend the block device API to provide feedback to the kernel if the checksum is invalid. I think you only really need two API calls -- one which says "read this block as fast as possible and I'll verify it", and one which says "the block you returned looks bad, try to reconstruct it and give me all available candidates".
I did the same with my business, personal projects, and open source stuff I worked on.

Words have meaning. Words have power. This much is not in debate, as far as I'm concerned (so far). Where I have to take pause is taking one usage (however derogatory) of a word and applying to every meaning and usage regardless of what the context actually is as some manifestation of virtue signalling. At this point we may as well throw out language, diction and rhetoric entirely as any word and phrase can be twisted to be offensive even when a word is used entirely and wholly in accurate and proper context.

People with receding hairline are not marginalized by society

You're obviously not aware with how common male baldness jokes are in sitcoms and entertainment, are you? I encourage you watch a few episodes of Seinfeld to see how much influence hair and baldness has on men and their self esteem in the dating world.

They might not be marginalized, but then again I guess it depends on how one is using the word 'marginalized' to begin with, which brings us back to square one: turnabout is a bitch.
The point is the same though. Resting a project's livelihood on a company that employed obviously incompetent process/humans/scripts is a risky move, and removing that livelihood from that company makes total sense.

> And the Bible never speaks out against slavery.

Most people, when speaking about slavery, are only aware of American slavery. Slavery in ancient times was generally a very different thing.

But yes, it does speak about what was American style slavery, which involved effectively kidnapping and forced slavery:

Leviticus 21:16 "Anyone who kidnaps someone is to be put to death, whether the victim has been sold or is still in the kidnapper's possession."

Reading just bits and pieces of the bible doesn't give you the proper context to interpret properly.

As for what you think an actual divine would look like, what a divine book looks like depends heavily on what God's purpose was in writing it, which is evidently different than what you would have it be. But in many people's estimation, it does put every human work to shame.

As for explaining things that a 1st-century scribe couldn't possibly know, ummm, the Hebrew scriptures originated somewhere around 1400 B.C. or earlier depending on how you wish to count.
