So 100% agree. I haven't found something I've enjoyed working with in JavaScript.

The environment I work on usually has very clean MVC and the issue is always that the designers I work with don't know javascript but need control over the HTML so I'm always taking their raw HTML with almost no javascript and basically reworking the HTML & CSS to do the animations or w/e is necessary.

I've tried React but generally I just get very dirty .JS files with mixed HTML/CSS in them. It's honestly not as clean as people make it out to be unless you're working with UI/UX people who know JavaScript already.

Literally every time I have an HTML/CSS person mess with the code I have to fix the JavaScript afterwards.

The default encryption is CAST5 which is a 64-bit block size cipher (even if it is confusingly called "CAST-128").

The default password derivation is using SHA1.

That's the reason people change the defaults. If you like them, you're of course free to use them or recommend them to your clients. Good luck. Of course I'd also like to read your explanation how you can consider 64-bits "secure enough" today (or for what you consider them secure enough). Also your estimate of how expensive would be to brute force shorter passwords for the traditionally small number of default rounds of SHA1. Thanks.
A really good example is Microsoft Outlook.

Features like auto-complete make it a breeze to invite 8 people to a meeting. You can burn up 16 person-hours of time with a few keystrokes (assuming these are actual productive people like developers, whose schedules are impacted by more than the duration of the meeting).
1. Include relevant skills and keywords because many resumes will be processed by H.R./machine doing simple keyword matching.

2. Try to keep it short(1 page). Resumes are usually not read but skimmed. Most hiring managers are given 20-50 resumes and very little time to decide who to pick for a phone screen.(typically 3-5 minutes or less)

3. Don't be afraid to use an interesting conversational writing style. So 80% of resumes read like a badly translated instructions manual from a 1970s VCR.

4. Structure your resume to put your best qualities first. If you went to a good school or got a good GPA put that on top. If you kicked but at your last job and got promoted a lot put that at the top.

> But that doesn't get clicks.

This is an attack on he article, but the article made quite clear that measuring productivity is notoriously challenging! You didn't have to look far - just the first sentence of the second paragraph:

> Measuring productivity is far from easy; it tends to be the residual left over when all other factors have been accounted for. The OECD says it "can often be a measure of our ignorance".

You've accused the authors of the article of something here (your vague insult means you can pretend you meant whatever you want after the fact - no point in my guessing what you were accusing). But what I'm seeing is that you responded to a comment without reading the article, and still chose to insult the author of the article, and the publication itself to boot.

You could have just answered the parent poster's question directly rather than randomly lambasting media.

The line length of readable text is quite limited, yet our monitors are wider than they are high. Since websites still contain a lot of text they profit more from getting the full screen height than from getting the full screen width. Hence vertical tab bars.

I'm not a fan of the giant pictures they use as representations of tabs when my tab bar fits ~40 tabs in one screen height. But I guess that heavily depends on user preference.

Agreed. And yet, here in the United States that claim is a central plank in the Republican platform.
My main gripe with them is, apart from being a bit obscure, is that they're bog-slow. They give me something like two dozen MB/s encryption/decryption speed, on a machine that can do AEAD at 2.5-4 GB/s (AES-GCM or Chapoly). A large part of that is the compression (zlib-ish I think), though.
I wonder how efficient this process is. The article did not state that figure.

> I think the claim was that the education market is (sort of) a market, at least in the sense that demand is driven to some degree by price.

In a market, price is driven by demand (and supply). If price is externally controlled (which isn't, then, a free market), then the quantity traded will be driven by price (it will be the minimum of quantity demanded and quantity supplied at the price.)

But, that's all irrelevant; the relevant relationship is that an external subsidy to buyers outside of the price exchanged between buyer and seller (which is not a price cut) increases demand and, thereby, both market clearing quantity and market clearing price (assuming the supply curve slopes in the usual direction.) The latter effect (increase in market clearing quantity) is usually the intended effect of a subsidy, the price effect comes along for the ride.

OTOH, there is plenty of evidence that loan repayment costs (and this has been generally been shown to be the case with deferred costs) are excessively discounted in decision-making, which increases the degree to which loans act like subsidies (in both quantity traded and price effects), but also decreases the degree to which subsidizing loan repayment acts like a subsidy (because it reduces a costs that is discounted in decision-making, reducing the effect of both the base cost and the reduction of that cost.)

You failed to prove she was "not allowed to speak" by posting a link to a video of her literally SPEAKING in front of Congress.

Did somebody interrupt her, and that's the best proof you can come up with of your assertion "There are highly trained scientists who don't fully support the party line, and they are not allowed to speak."

Being highly criticized by your peers is not the same as not being allowed to speak.

Do you have any better examples of scientists who were not allowed to speak -- perhaps a scientist who hasn't actually testified in front of Congress on live national television, written an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, boasts of having a total of 12,000 citations of her publications, and a blog that gets on average about 12,000 ‘hits’ per day, and 300-400 comments?

Or is that all you've got?
I visit their warehouse once. It is not a good job, to be put directly, everyone looks like they would jump out immediately if given a choice, which should be no surprise, since the warehouse is designed in a way to maximize automation, the stuff left for human to do is still pretty robotic.

My statement is easy to understand, a majority of claimed 100,000 jobs might be that desirable, even though they are jobs indeed. As other comments put, those jobs help little in the person future career, and is not something you can do for a long time either.

I think the implications of UI/UX people who don't know JavaScript is probably not great to begin with, yeah? I'm not sure that React isn't just exposing a flawed assumption that maybe we shouldn't have had in the first place.
Perhaps you are thinking that the FPGA is a product? It's not; it's an RTL validator. Moving chip RTL from FPGA to product silicon is a well understood step that is almost routine in the industry. Time was you would do initial RTL development work in silicon, but modern FPGAs are big enough to hold a whole CPU core. Today you wouldn't develop directly on the silicon without an FPGA step, even if you own a fab; it's just too expensive to debug.
I don't see compiler writers being thrilled by having to harden the entire compiler toolchain against actively malicious input. And there would be no way to verify the binary by itself, you'd have to have every binary built on and signed by a trusted build server. Oh, and now any binary built with a compiler that has bugs can now compromise the entire OS.

No, if you want to keep security you need some kind of external memory protection system. Memory isolation gives that and takes away performance. Mill gives both.

this is not a new idea - Burroughs old CPUs B6700/etc did this - system integrity depended on the tool chain always making safe code - I remember linker (aka binder) bugs bringing down weekly poayroll on our multitasking system.

It also meant that compiler development essentially required your own multi-million dollar mainframe - there weren't a lot of languages available.

You couldn't safely import code from another machine since anyone could write any bitstream to a tape.

I disagree there, thinking back to the days of when Office 'customized' it's UI to how you used the product (constantly moving menu items, shudder!), I'd rather have a consistent UX that didn't exactly fit my patterns than an adaptive one.

The problem with many interfaces, especially on consumer products, is that they're not discoverable, and oftentimes hide things behind inane levels of menu. Interface isn't a competitive advantage (although it should be!) so manufacturers don't invest in it.

It's a good example but I think the core of the article is that there is inherent success bias in the history of science and engineering.

>If some entities are rational, they should perceive the world the same way and thus have the same preferences.

This is incorrect. Rational economic behavior is sequence of choices that gives the optimal level utility for the actor. Utility function is given and outside rationality.

Different people have different capabilities and resources available to them. Even if they had different utility functions they would behave differently for the reasons I described above.
So, what you really mean is:

Yeah, I can sympathize with the last part, but I must tell it doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

I read the other comment as thinking that generic Adrenaclick (the low cost alternative) was illegal. It wasn't.

A prescription written for Epipen still can't be filled with generic Adrenaclick, so "was illegal" isn't a great description of that situation. It's hardly complicated to ask a doctor to write a different prescription, so that's why I talked about consumer behavior and marketing. Given that the different mechanisms require different training, I am somewhat forgiving of the "as written" requirement for auto-injectors.

Pedantry: but RISC-V is open hardware only from the logic level up.

The "transistor" level would require open source silicon layout software, and probably some level of NDA relaxation on the part of the fabs who surely won't allow a production mask set on their modern[1] processes to be released to the public. I don't see that happening any time soon.

> I wonder if it's possible to be a men's rights activist without being considered a misogynist.

It would be possible if there was a general perception that men were generally and historically, in the context in which one is an activist, oppressed based on their sex, such that being an activist for greater rights for men was consistent with pro-equality interest rather than anti-women interests.

However, there are very few societies on the world where that view is dominant or even a wide minority view, either internally or for external observers, so it's very hard to be a "men's rights activist" without the general perception being that one is acting out an anti-woman worldview.
In this context it imposes a modern view of "opportunity cost" that would simply not have occurred to Newton or any of his contemporaries. It's just too far back in history to really be useful as a support for his argument, especially given the convoluted and mixed approach used.
The slightly longer story is also yes.

But there are some optimizations and tricks. E.g. if the Task is already completed the async method will just continue to the next statement instead of attaching a continuation that will later be called.

And in case continuations are used async await will automatically capture the current SynchronizationContext and will assure that the continuation runs on the same.
In real dollars, US per capita income has more than quintupled since 1929. http://www.demographia.com/db-pc1929.pdf (2016 is higher than 2008, to fill in the missing info).

So even if you want a rising standard of living, work hours could conceivably be shorter.

That said, the fundamental point that most of us wouldn't accept 1929 lifestyles for any amount of leisure is right.

First, pharmacies don't prescribe anything, they dispense medication. Second, if you voiced how expensive EpiPens are to your pharmacist they would not only recommend the generic, but (so long as they're not swamped) call your doctor right there at the desk to get the prescription changed.

The government's position might be considered overly cautious but I agree with it in this case, the two injectors are sufficiently different that they're not drop-in replacements for each other.

Easiest win for me was trying out re-frame[1]. Not only do you get the best performance out of react, to the point where the actual virtual-dom implementation doesn't matter, but you also gain productivity and since it forces you to build apps made out of 95% pure functions and immutable data, reasoning even at scale is still incredibly easier than anything else I've ever tried to build GUIs with.

Interface performance is one of the strangest problems to have in this age of crazy processing power but it is extremely common.

Some of the delay is just plain silly and avoidable, like having long and synchronous opening animations in response to an action, which only serve to waste the user’s time. (Oh how I love being on a web site like AT&T and watching their JavaScript poorly zoom open a blank box from the center of the page for 2 whole seconds, when I KNOW they could just show me the damned page already.)

In other cases, the source of the slowdown is less clear. Is a physical device just not delivering its signals any sooner?

I’ve played games where you have to walk to a very precise spot, hit a button, and wait literally one whole second before ANY response is visible onscreen or in audio. (And if it turns out you didn’t really take the action you thought you did, you have to walk in circles to try a slightly different spot, and wait again). Why should that ever be the case? How can a super-fast console not immediately display something or play some sound to show that you took the action?
I haven't gone through other programs, so I can't say from personal experience.

There are no programs that have stood out to me during hiring to predict the quality of the candidate.

If you're a student looking at programs, I would prioritize the amount and quality of individual attention you stand to receive. A self-directed student can do well anywhere (including on their own). If you're not so stubborn/resilient, having a good community and mentorship to help you overcome difficult times is key.
