I think they'd prefer an alternative punishment (because that's what they get if there's no room in Belgium). IIRC there was protest against the transfers.
If you want to teach all these things in a single semester, you teach a whole lot of nothing.

How deep can you even go per topic beyond mentioning that it exists?

The "topics" you listed are all 1-2 semester courses individually.

I'd like to see your 2 weeks on networking. What are you going to teach there? "Hey guys the web exists there are webservers and an http protocol, btw you can boot up a webserver by writing python -m SimpleHttpServer ok thats it see ya next week for our lecture on regex"?

Please don't pretend you're ever going to mention sockets. That's just not enough time.
> if you fail to pay the bills, you aren't going to die.

I don't know where you live, but in certain places failing to pay your bills means you end up in the cold rain with nothing to eat.
It could, my point is that it's not at all clear what the promise even means.

More details on the study from NewScientist [1]

They analysed data from a long-running study of almost 10,000 people across the UK who were born in November 1958.
They found that 28 per cent of the study’s participants had been involved in the Scouts or Guides, and that these were 15 per cent less likely to suffer from anxiety or mood disorders at the age of 50 than their peers who didn’t join.
Scouts or Guides were not more likely to come from families of any particular social status.
However, people from poorer backgrounds do have a relatively higher likelihood of mental illness – but this effect seemed to be reduced or even removed in those who attended Scouts or Guides.

100%. Russia is multi-national country and we have some nations inside country that we don't like (sorry, but it's true), so I can say we like Finns even more than some russians :) They have awesome vodka (much, much better than any russian vodka), they are smart and friendly, not arrogant - awesome people. I highly doubt any russian leader, even Putler, will try to offend them.
you didnt see my point, Chinese put heavy tariff on the import to protect their local economy. therefore a pair of jeans thats created locally going to sell more expensive then it is oversea.

when you have a 100 bucks a pair Levis vs 5 bucks a pair of local made jean (which came out of same factory), Chinese are most likely to buy the 5 bucks one, and therefore Chinese govt effectively protect their local business, took job from USA and helped every local economy with American investing dollars.
I don't get the impression of 'almost mandatory' from the article, but I still prefer the scouts to anything the UK government is offering.
Well, that depends where in Europe.
I don't disagree with you in terms of endorsing character. That's certainly a valid way to look at voting.

Remember when some people didn't vote for Bill Clinton because of the character issues in his personal life? Other people said that the stuff in private didn't matter if he was good at the job.

My perception was that in the case of Trump, those two arguments were the same but many of the people who said them flipped. I thought that was really interesting to watch.

I think one universal truth across big companies is that no 2 teams are the same. I worked on two different teams at a big (not google big company).. the work, the manager, the policies were night and day different. Perhaps they were as different as any jobs I have worked.

Is it possible you just got a not fun Google team ;)
That makes zero sense. His wife is an immigrant - surely you must have known this? This fact directly contradicts your post.

Perhaps the difference is between "Russia the state" and "citizens of Russia"? Especially when they're almost neighbors, when you live near the border, I don't see why you'd fear any random Russian citizen just because they live in Russia.

I'd be quite interested in their perspective on world politics. My impression is that Russia has a lot of propaganda and filtering of the media, and I assume it has a different character from the propaganda and filtering of the media in western countries (... where it happens just as well, but in a more decentralized, money-oriented fashion).
Motorcycle owner here. I routinely get 60-80 mpg, depending on smoothness of traffic, terrain, tire pressure, and load.

Of course, this isn't a fair comparison. Personally, I'd love to see much wider use of HOV lanes, possibly with a steep up-front permit cost for people who refuse to carpool. (By the time this happens, though, we'll probably all be using just-in-time self-driving cars.)
I had that degree of freedom in both Honduras (the capital city of Tegucigalpa) and in Canada in the mid-to-late 1970s and early 1980s so I've got two data points there.

Note: my Honduran side of the family was upper middle class so it was entirely by personal and parental choice, I walked by myself and also with young friends and family all through town

That's still not the same as dying. There are homeless people who still manage to get by for years on, despite having no means whatsoever.
But now you are talking a lot of "points" without citing any statistics. Like "the social safety net is massively underfunded". I grant you that that can be true, but is it more underfunded today than it was in 2008? This is the point I'm trying to make; you can make a lot of talk about things are getting worse, but when you look at the numbers they are getting better (or at least aren't getting worse).

Trump’s Data Team Saw a Different America
What country did you have that experience in?

I'm an atheist and a Scout leader in the UK. When writing my programme I always include a spiritual component to it but leave it non-religious. We definitely discuss and explore different religions (in past year visited a Mosque, an Abbey and a Synagogue to learn about their cultures) but never focus hard on a religion or even suggest that holding a religious belief is necessary to be a Scout.

Recently at an event where I renewed my promise I took the Atheist promise which is as follows:

I promise that I will do my best
Uphold our Scout values
Do my duty to the Queen
Help other people
And to keep the Scout laws

I find the majority of Scouters I meet, despite saying the original promise follow this non-denominational one throughout their Scouting. We promote the "worldwide family of Scouts" more than a religious grouping.

If you do look for a Scout group for your son, make sure to talk to the leader there. Different groups approach the issue differently so try to find one that suits you and lets your son avoid being 'forcible subjected to the propaganda' though it can be good for a young person to experience it and make that decision for themselves.
The programme was stopped because Belgium finished building new prisons.
Did you look at the study?

I'm biased to pile on too social science studies but the study in question made efforts to address these considerations.

From another article [0]:

"On average, scouts and guides were 15 per cent less likely to
have developed mental illness or depression by middle age,
even those from poorer backgrounds whose initial risk was higher."

Explanations for that shocking 2% shift
That article title is unfortunate, because it's actually the most interesting thing I've read all week.
In almost all countries the reference to God is mandatory, but in the Netherlands it is not.

Of course if you're not a member of the "World Organisation of the Scout Movement" you can do whatever you want :-)
If somebody has a drug problem we treat their addiction, if they are aggressive we provide anger management, if they have got money problems we give them debt counselling. So we try to remove whatever it was that caused the crime.

Here's hoping that they don't privatize prisons, like we have in the US.
I understand that the dying process is unfamiliar territory and none of us know how we're going to go or what the path will be like.

My father died a couple years ago after a long decline. He would have passed the verbal request criteria, but he had a long history of saying unambiguously that he did not want extraordinary measures to prolong his life, and he consistently refused medications and medical care in the last 10 years of his life.

However, hearing him say things like "If I knew how to end this, I would" was one of the hardest things I've ever heard, because he was not the type to give up.

In the end, he declined rapidly in the course of a couple weeks and passed away on his own. There's some peace to knowing that even though it was a really hard road, he went out basically the way he wanted - without being plugged into a bunch of machines, without medications, in his own time and his own bed.

I'm glad we didn't indulge his last minute desires for the easy way out. I really hope Coloradoans will make good decisions, but I know that sometimes they won't.
That doesn't tell you that motivations are something other than race, then?

None are so blind as those who will not see.

I wasn't only talking about housing provision, I was talking about housing in terms of changing the face of the country and increasing urbanisation.

I said London and the South East, not just London, and there were Brexit voters in London, approximately 3.5 million of them.

It wasn't JUST the polls, which were horrible.

I honestly don't agree - or I believe that CNN was substantially worse - but that's just from personal experience and hard to quantify.

I started FACT-Checking their interviews. They were also disappointing. You can google FACT-Check CNN and read a number of articles.

They used to be solid on the fact, but it's pretty hard for them to be credible at the moment.

I was just curious if other CNN watchers (not haters) felt the same way?
OpenStack to Be Used in Square Kilometre Array (SKA) Project
The thing about unit testing is that you have to decide what your "unit" is. It could be down to the function/method level, but that's not always appropriate. Such a strict testing framework can leave you immobilized when you want or need to refactor.

Their HTTP API is their interface for the application. It makes a great deal of sense to focus on that level for their testing (note: they didn't say they didn't test internals, they said they focused on the external interfaces).
>It might be one of the cases where correlation doesn't imply causation.

This was my first thought. I would bet it has more to do with the kind of parents who would enroll their kids in scouts (either for socioeconomic reasons as you mentioned or maybe just whatever else that means about the type of parents they are)
CNN has always been crap.

There just is not enough "news" to fill up 24 hours. CNN spends about half as much to produce 24 hours of news as NBC spends to produce 30 minutes.

So most of the time CNN is the "school shooting channel" or the "MH370 channel". Back in the day you'd see Anderson Cooper being beat up by Mubarack's thugs, but now it is so depressing to see him sit behind a desk and rap, taking the stupid things the democrats and republicans say seriously.

For the past year or so CNN has been the "Donald Trump Channel", even if they don't like him or cover him negatively. Donald Trump has kept Americans of all political persuasions glued to the news because you never know what wacky thing will come out of his mouth next. Donald Trump has been good to CNN, Fox News, and even MSNBC in terms of ratings, dollars and cents.
Using Tensorflow and SVM to Create an Image Classifications Engine
Well for the others, if you really care about it you can see that sectors start getting remapped and think "ah ok time to start thinking about backing this data up and replace the drive" whereas if I understand correctly on the Intel one you pretty much immediately need to backup the data and hope that you don't need to restart or lose power before you've backed up what you need.

I'm sure it's more nuanced than that but my reaction was definitely "steer clear of the Intel drives ..." when I read this so perhaps someone can clarify.
My scouts (was Scoutmaster for 20 years) definitely did not fit the 'rich kid' profile. Farm kids, rural community, parents working 2 jobs or driving a truck.

We went to mountains, deserts, rivers and lakes. We swam in a lake on an island in a lake. We canoed, hiked, camped, cooked, woodworked, laughed and ran.

Our Troop tried to keep event costs down to around $15, so everybody could participate. Succeeded for the most part. And we did regular fundraisers so anybody who wanted to go, had a way to get there.

Scout Troops can be expensive too. Our district has that kind. That can drive the perception of the demographic. But our Troop was top-rated in our District for years. And not because of money. It was because our youth led a very rigorous program, invested themselves in it, and expected a lot from one another.

That's actually the whole point of Scouting - getting the youth invested in something worthwhile. In the process, modeling behaviors and training skills and leadership.
Why would you? The numbers have no effect on the outcome of the election, just on the early reporting of it.
AKA Percussive maintenance.

Sometimes, things in older flashlights aren't all aligned or for some reason the circuit just can't complete, so you smack it on your hand and it ... just works. Unless the batteries or bulb truly are dead. Then you just have a sore hand that you can't see.
John Kerry wasn't in the running to become the DNC nominee.
Are you really in control of your decisions?
Both of those things can have regulatory bullets put into their heads, which can delay them for years.
I hear this argument quite often but my reaction tends to be...

...as someone that's fully employed I'm probably only looking at jobs I'm really interested in. I don't mind doing some free work for stuff I'm interested in. I also enjoy doing small unpaid side projects or programming puzzles in my free time...basically the same concept.

That being said, my guess is (ignoring legal implications) paying 200$ or whatever for it is actually more beneficial to the company than expecting you to do it for free so it seems like a nobrainer (once again assuming you can handle legal). Reciprocity and all.
What tools? What are you comparing it to?
Ask HN: How does HN get around ambiguous deep-linking laws with newspapers?
I've submitted a HN iOS application that got rejected as posts can link to media outlets such as NYTimes, Reuters etc. After looking into this a bit more, it seems as though newspapers and the media dislike linking to their websites without explicit agreements?
Similar to this post from 5 days ago I think?

This approach is much better than something like solving another puzzle in Hackerrank. It also working both ways, because by the quality of assignment you can see through what kind of company you are really applying to.
I personally find most of the time such assignments to be a good thing and enjoyed doing them, but also had one case where company asked me to do self-contained module that solves one of the problems they had and on the follow up interview they asked me to refactor it so that it could be embedded into their product. Which I did and they liked it and then decided not to proceed. I could sense they didn't actually need a new developer, but needed someone to extend their product for free.

Almost all SUV's are crossovers these days, including the three row ones. There are still some on truck frames like the Suburban but the market has almost entirely shifted. I assume they're cheaper to build that way, lighter, and also drive more like a car than a truck.
To quote from A Bit of Fry & Laurie, 'well of course too much is bad for you, that's what "too much" means[...]. "Too much" precisely means that quantity which is excessive, that's what it means'.

Which is a bummer. When I interviewed at Amazon a few years ago, it was a day of coding on the whiteboard. Turned out I didn't have the Java experience that group wanted, and I'm allergic to pager duty so that was a non-starter for me.
Great point. People pay too much attention to the republican rhetoric about reduced regulation, spending, etc.

My father and I went to cub scouts when I was younger. Very quickly in the first session the religious focus arose and my dad said, "Ok, we're outta here." (We are jewish/atheist)

It's a shame to make something like this religious because I think I would have really enjoyed everything else about the scouts. I'd do the same with my children in the future if the tone is the same.
