Some thoughts on syntax

We believe indentation is critical for readable code, but we don't want the whitespace of the program to determine its meaning. Rather, the meaning of the program should determine its indentation structure. Indentation becomes just another context-sensitive rule.

Unambiguous syntax (the reason for explicit end delimiters) means you can copy-and-paste code from email or the Web, and its meaning won't change. Your IDE can help you reindent code without worrying that doing so will change the meaning of the program.
Sure, there are advantages to both approaches, if done well. But I bet that diving into Linux first would make it really hard for beginners to get a deep grasp of core concepts; may be fine for more advanced learners. e.g., the scheduler is probably 10,000,000,000 lines of complexity when the core scheduling algorithm probably fits on one page of code.
I like to think of it like this:

For 0 based indexing the punctuation is the indexes/offsets:

[ a , b , c ]
0 1 2 3

for 1 based indexing consider the actual elements are the indexes/positions:

[ a , b , c ]
1 2 3

In the first case it is non inclusive, ie.

elements[0:3] - all items between offset 0 and 3

The second case is inclusive, ie.

elements[1:3] - all items including 1 and 3

Personally I don't have an issue with either, they both 'make sense'

Where they stop making sense is when you'd mix up the inclusivity ie (for the second case).

elements[1:4] - including item 1 not including 4
> Uber eats is the best of these I've found, but it's a pain meeting at the curb.

This is an option, you should be able to select whether you want to meet your courier at the curb for faster food or wait for them to find parking and come to your door.
Looks like there are four frameworks[0]. Use the Android one for Android, the Polymer one for Polymer, the Angular one for Angular, and the "Material Design Lite" would have to be adapted for everything else - it is plain css, html. Don't know if the Material Design Lite has any JavaScript library.

Is it such a bad thing for society if a business fails when transparency is added to how they conduct their business?

That's a false premise, which assumes any and all complaints are made in good faith. Some people are assholes and will leave a bad review because they disliked the person who delivered a meal or any number of other spurious reasons. You really sound like the sort of person who has never worked in any other field than IT and has a naive and largely illusory view of business conditions.
This just sounds like there are whole of really bad coding and C++ anti-features and you want to solve it with more C++ anti-features and bad code.

A function could just not use exceptions at all and just call abort() on error, what are you going to do then?

There isn't really a concept of library boundary in C++; you just have compilation units at best. At worst, you have a library that's implemented entirely as headers. What happens when the exception originates in your code but goes through the libraries call stack (because it was a call on a passed-in object or callback)? What you are asking for is likely impossible.
If we're generous and say that the auto-glass installer job pays a bonus of $10,000 a year that leaves $60,000 earned at $12/hour ... which is about 96 hours a week. I can think of plenty of reasons why you'd have trouble finding people to do that job.

All these GraphQL solutions seem to focus on the frontend and assume there's a magical GraphQL server somewhere. But GraphQL Just shifts the hard work from the client to the server and I haven't seen any good solution towards security (except storing all the possible queries a user may access, which kind of defeats the purpose of GraphQL in the first place) and performance (a large query is usually resolved to thousands of database fetches, instead of 1 optimized one) on the server side.

What we really need is a decent GraphQL server. The client isn't difficult anyway.
Indeed, and it's curious that a lot of the more would-be-impactful things have come later in his term when he faces stronger opposition. I don't have any explanation for this.
I guess many people outside the US, like me, are discovering this. Which is understandable, given they have no reason to market this to me.
Very few people care about networking protocols, and SFB is explicitly a business communication tool, meaning that most of your contact will be with people who also have SFB.

The sapphire supplier is GTAT, and they were actually a sapphire glass manufacturing equipment manufacturer that Apple contracted to manufacture sapphire displays (a completely new business for them), then un-contracted afterwards, dropping their market cap from $1.5bn to $175m and shuttering three plants (whose workers Apple pledged to find new jobs for).

Indivisible: A Practical Guide for Resisting the Trump Agenda
I was writing something that got way too ranty so I'll confine myself to this.

While over prescribing may be a real problem, I think they mischaracterize how psych meds are prescribed. I've had several people in my life who suffer from severe mental illness and finding the right meds for these people has been a long and difficult process. I've sat in on many an appointment and never have I seen the flippant attitudes towards prescribing these meds that this article implies are widespread.
The US court system is an adversarial one. You make arguments in court. There are two sides.

FISC is a court in name only. There is no oversight (I don't count the political appointees in the Senate as oversight), there are no checks and balances, there are no appeals. Calling it a court beggars the term.
If something is harmful, ineffective grandstanding (and then losing a FISA fight) are worthless.
Anomalie cuts the insane markups out of custom wedding dresses
You're quoting the dialogue without the preceding context. ABC News openly admits that Trump misunderstood their question, which was yelled to him as he was departing a loud rally.

They quote the explanation offered by the Trump campaign spokesman that clarifies the matter:

>"The national registry of foreign visitors from countries with high terrorism activity that was in place during the Bush and Obama Administrations gave intelligence and law enforcement communities additional tools to keep our country safe the President-elect will release his own vetting policies after he is sworn in."

(This is all from the source you linked.)

Trump assumed this was the subject of the discussion, since, as ABC News itself notes, he was unable to hear the reporter's full question. It's a program that existed under Bush and Obama until 2011, when Obama presumably terminated it so he could use it as a talking point in the re-election campaign (setting up another "Republicans are racist [because they want to be careful before admitting people from countries that are terrorism hotspots]" dig). Trump's advisors feel the security benefits of this program, which has nothing to do with religion, justify its reinstatement. There is no constitutional issue presented by cataloging aliens that are present in the country by their country of origin; in fact, it's a necessary thing to enforce any immigration policy at all.

Trump said nothing about going to mosques to sign people up. When the reporter suggested this, Trump said "you sign them up at different [places]"; one who wanted to give Trump the benefit of the doubt could even interpret this comment as explicitly disavowing the concept that mosques should be canvassed (as in "Should we go to mosques to make sure the Muslims [who should be signed up but aren't, not because they're Muslim, but because they're aliens from a high terror risk country] get signed up?" / "No, different places.").

Trump is certainly a master at the authentic-sounding subtly ambiguous statement. I'm sure that skill is very useful in both sales and politics.

Finally, I would suggest that you refrain from spuriously accusing others of lying, thereby generating unnecessary hostility.
Lately, sci-hub has been sending me straight to the paywall I'm trying to avoid. I think the lawyers got to them.
Yes, but that would involve looking at the last 30 years of PL Research, which the parent claims they chose nebulous "experience" over.

Well, then it's kind of a far stretch to claim vscode debugging is better than ANY other solution if you haven't tried them all. Not even the most popular once like webstorm.

Income tax rates under Trump's tax plan are clearly more favorable to the wealthy than what we have now or what they would've been under Hillary.

Not so: The Standard doesn't have anything to say about the differences between static and dynamic libraries, or the differences between a .exe and its .dll's (or .so's). The program is composed of all the things that link into it as far as the ODR is concerned.

The breakage from mixing different library versions (say, MSVCRT versions, for example) is a direct result of violating the ODR.
Don't be obtuse. The grandparent poster was talking about the problem of being locked into an individual vendor's platform - a problem which does exist in many market sectors but can also be mitigated by the ancient strategy of not putting all your eggs in one basket [1]. Defining a problem out of existence is not really illuminating.

1. This is a metaphor, in case anyone else is feeling pedantic and wants to challenge the notion that eggs are commonly transported in baskets...
> most of the jobs are for senior roles.

They mean 3-5 years.
The company I work for just got on teams, and it integrates with our organization at the Active Directory level. We can do personal chats, meetings and messages, but only to others INSIDE our organization. It isn't a deal breaker, but firing up a screenshare/meeting to a vendor is impossible through it.

I'm always baffled by the people in these articles. From the anecdote at the beginning: he's having trouble hiring people for $12/hour (up to $70K/year with bonuses, etc).

I am also having trouble hiring people: I need a senior software engineer. Pay is $12/hour. It's taking me a long time to find workers. I guess people are just lazy and don't want to work.

Yes and no. They were reported and basically blacklisted from the journal with a retraction. However, there are thousands of journals just as disreputable as the one they published in, and the level of egregiousness here makes me thing that plagiarism isn't such a big deal where they are from, so it's unclear that this will ruin their careers.

if you are paying for google apps, it's insanely easy to talk to Google Support[0].

I've contacted Google Support for a lot of issues (some insanely trivial, and some pretty complicated - both via phone and chat and they have yet to disappoint me).

MS has always been in the enterprise world and they've honed their skills on it. But imo, G Suite is not too far behind when it comes to support - but it is lacking in other areas - like not having native apps.

"...pay starts at $12 an hour and goes up to $70,000 a year including overtime and bonuses..."

So let's call it $24k (not including bonuses) up to $70k (including bonuses). That's my interpretation.
> Should you be able to vote without registering?

Maybe. Maybe voter rolls should be some sort of bio-token that proofs your uniqueness and existence, and your approximate location (to determine local eligibility) but uses a pseudonym and is not connected to anything like your taxes, drivers license, etc.
There are still a few countries with wealth taxes[0]. I'm not sure if they work well or not for these countries. Picketty doesn't spend to much time on the subject of existing wealth taxes. He is more focused on a global wealth tax, which is much more ambitious. Something that would need to be designed for the digital era indeed.

Amusing find from the linked article: Back in 1999 Trump proposed a one time wealth tax of 14.25% for individuals worth more than 10 million.

So, empty water bottles don't exist? Or do you object to saying "this bottle contains 0 ml of water"? Why? Or do you think that no water bottle is the same thing as a water bottle with no water in it?

> I have 1 car, not 0.

And what about someone who has no car? Are there no people who don't have cars? Or do you object to saying "this person has zero cars"? Why? Or do you think that no garage is the same as a garage with no car in it?

> If I had a lineup of cars, the first one would be 1, not 0.

No, it wouldn't. Unless you arbitrarily decided to label it as such. It would be the first. That's an ordinal number. Also, you would have 1 car. That's a cardinal number.

I can think of lot's of situations where material design would be an improvement (any UK or US bank site really) but I can't think of a situation where it is King.

For example the text input box not having borders and all the slow animations. I struggle to think of a situation where Material is better than just basic css.

I'm hypothesizing, but I imagine a lot of it has to do with geographical mismatch. How many auto-glass installers do you need in Elkhart, Indiana [1]? Or Casper, Wyoming, or Lafayette, Louisiana?

EDIT: to expand on my point, in metropolitan areas that are experiencing a population boom, demand creates opportunities for businesses, and therefore opportunities for prospective workers. It's a virtuous cycle. Meanwhile, a large employer's departure in established areas will leave behind skilled talent, but some of those people will depart and disperse, making the area less attractive for new job creation in related fields.

Yes, but isn't the VG-Wort §52a UrhG thing a different issue? It's creating a whole lot of uncertainty right now, no doubt about that, but the article is about universities failing to reach an agreement with Elsevier. What you're talking about is a terrible new deal between VG Wort and the Kultusministerkonferenz about licensing for publication of any kind of protected material for education and research.
Here is my advice.
First, decide whether you want to finish your degree or look for work. The opportunity cost of finishing your degree is much lower now, tuition rates will only increase, and it will open doors. Your department will have connections, there are on campus job fairs, alumni networks, etc. All else being equal, a candidate with a degree will be hired over a candidate without one. It's only another year so tough it out.
1. Networking is not optional. You should attend local users groups (https://www.meetup.com/North-Denver-Metro-C-Meetup/ and equivalents for other languages) and talk to people. Weak social connections are an excellent source of referrals.
2. Evaluate your skills in the context of the market. What technologies are popular? (http://www.indeed.com/jobtrends/q-denver-q-C%23-q-C++-q-Perl...) is one possible source of information. Fundamentals change slowly but programming languages and platforms wax and wane over time.
3. Your resume should be a single page.
4. Your home page should support your job search. Change it to a portfolio of your work, a redirect to your resume, or a redirect to your LinkedIn.
5. Your depression and personal life are none of your employer's business.
6. Resumes are not one size fits all. You should have different resumes for different industries.
Thanks for the info. I have yet to get into a job (will be starting this summer) so I didn't know much about this stuff but am excited.
And that is exactly why I think the industry messed up by calling them smart watches. Telling the time is probably one of the least important things these devices do. If all you need is a way to tell the time, one of these devices would be a huge waste of money and inconvenience.

Office 365 and G Suite are no comparable to be honest. My old company had 365 (Fortune 500 company,) my new one has G Suite (Start-up.) I miss Office 365. I actually just use my personal copy of Office 365 on my own device (BYOD.) Also from a Sysadmin view Office 365 is miles ahead of where older versions of office were. The only problem I suppose is that G Suite is a bit cheaper and it attracts small-mid sized businesses. I do find their offering to be pretty sizable and they keep adding new products to Office 365 to existing members.
Thanks for the suggestion! We're actually using a lot of k8s inspired processes to power the tool, and may end up building on top of k8s as we learn more about how other developers use snappi. Definitely a lot of synergies, and I'll be sure to reach out to @beeps to talk about them.
Or a realistic interpretation of what was intended by having content after "starts at $12 hour" would be that they demonstrated they could both do the work and demonstrate customer service skills, and began earning more like $25/hour to get to that "up to 70k/year" more easily.
I only know the details because I write software on top of some of the Lync/S4B APIs, and have to deal with customers that are completely confused why one Skype client they have for making calls works with our software, and their other Skype client with a nearly identical icon that they also use for making calls doesn't...
We don't know whether Tumblr's porn content is legal. There's absolutely no way a risk department would allow hosting massive porn pictures of potentially underage volunteers (or not-so-volunteers), let alone acquire a company who does that as a job, or copy that content over for free. Porn ventures use specific advertising platforms, payment methods and insurances.

I must be wrong, since Yahoo believes Tumblr increases its worth.
Drawing a line between intent and danger is a weak barrier, because you cannot dictate the intent of future political groups. There is no reliable test of intentionality.

Also, the nature of information is that once known you can never rely on unknowing it again. If the United States breaks out into a war with China, you cannot unknow a database of asians innocuously collected for alternative reasons. The information itself is dangerous because the information itself is powerful.
