Agreed. Steve Silberman, author of Neurotribes, says, "If you've met one autistic person, then you've met one autistic person." For me that was definitely a caution against one-size-fits-all approaches.

I also think a fair bit here about how the default becomes invisible when we think about these topics. If you look at a lot of society's institutions, you could see them as "special accommodations" for the neurotypical. Some people will definitely need more support than others. But I'm often struck by how different people just need different support than others. It just looks like extra support because it's not what we're used to.

As a small example, introverts often have a whole host of tricks for dealing with an extroverted world. E.g., sneaking into a bathroom for a few minutes of blessed quiet. The relationship flips when you enter into some introvert-dominated space, like a library. I often wonder what the world would be like if being "on the spectrum" were the majority case, and our current neurotypicals were a clear minority.
That wasn't my experience, and I graduated university in 1997. There was a period where there wasn't work to speak of, and the first job I landed after that was pretty crap (though it was also the job where I picked up the skills and exposure I needed to end up working as a Postgres DBA).

But I had some savings, collected unemployment, and had the help and support of friends (who also worked in tech, and weathered the .com bubble's popping more fortunately than I did) and family.

Not all — if even many — of those things are true for most of the rest of this country.

I mean, seriously: the fact that such a large chunk of the tech workforce couldn't find work in ~2001-3, or whenever, ended up going to law school it became A Thing people noticed doesn't seem to me a particularly valid counter-argument to the economic wreckage that is the Rust Belt.

Yes, it's a wonderful prima facie demonstration of career mobility being a thing that actually exists in the world, but it, specifically, is also largely only available to people who already have the knowledge and skills (to say nothing of connections) such that they're almost necessarily going to be better positioned for these kinds of situations.
I know. I'm not saying it isn't wrong, I'm saying that I can see why he wrote it that way :)

A lot of C++ resources explain moving solely in terms of rvalues so it's easy to associate the two in the wrong places.
If that was actually the rationale, the law would mandate utilities to use the cheapest available source, whatever that happens to be at any given point; not provide a fixed list of sources.

So, it's really just an excuse.

In such a case one would expect the evil page to present something that looked like a credit card input to the user, but not to the browser. Sites would still want to use HSTS to combat the MITMing itself.
Are there differences between genders? Sure. It's an open question how much of the differences are due to direct biological causes and how much are due to societal norms (I find the parallel between open source software and indigenous gift cultures to be quite interesting, for example), but there are certainly differences.

As such, I would oppose any attempts to establish quotas or even aspirational targets for diversity; as you say, forced diversity has negative consequences -- not just for the organization, but also for the individuals involved.

But as much as we shouldn't be trying to bring in individuals who aren't really interested, we need to make sure we're not keeping out individuals who are interested... in a sense, it's more important to look diverse than it is to be diverse.
I thought about the same thing! I was excited about concept cars, but bored by their mass production counterpart. I always thought that I don't care about the engine or the interior, I would buy it just because of the shape.

I'm also into jeep wrangler. but I it's too fuel hungry. I wonder why they don't make a version without any off road capability with smaller engine but same body style, I would buy it.

I've never seen anyone doing a daily commute in a Ferrari

There's a retired F1 driver who uses a Ferrari Mondial as a daily driver. That's the opposite of the concept in the op question: A Ferrari that looks somewhat more conventional, yet is a true Ferrari under the bodywork. (It was also quite a bit more reliable than its peers.)
Another big brother, academic, statist who thinks that every transaction should be tracked by the government. Just horrible people.

The definition of autism has changed significantly over time[1] and many studies[2] show this is correlated with the rate increased.

As it happens autism diagnosis is first possible around the same time as certain vaccines are given[3].

You have hearsay about one person, and generalize that across 1) an entire race and 2) all of America.

Downvoting you isn't even about political correctness for me. It's that your group size is too small to lead to any sort of substantive discussion.

There are a lot of people that abuse these systems, and a lot of honest people that don't. Maybe you should find some real data before jumping to conclusions?

This is why we need more experiments like the one in Finland. It would be irresponsible to implement a UBI until we know which of these two scenarios is most likely. Although, I suspect the reality will fall somewhere between the two.

That is a phenomenal resource, thank you so much!
Minio shards data across 16 drives. If you have more drives, you would run multiple instances for each set of 16 drives. I would generally recommend against denser storage servers. When it goes down, all the drives go offline with it.
It's a language feature if your language has copy and move constructors.

Rust doesn't, so it's just an optimization. In C++ the code will have different semantics (e.g. if your move ctors have side effects) based on this optimization, so the language needs to define if/how it works.
The important thing to remember about `std::move` in C++ is that it doesn't move anything, it simply does an unconditional cast to an rvalue reference, which basically allows you to treat the object as a temporary variable (effectively transferring ownership).
Common knowledge, see earlier link, some googling will easily give you more info.

Lots of older people in Easter Europe think communistic days were better and wish they could go back: state provided housing, education, healthcare and a job. Not great, but basic (as in basic income).
Typical super-car designs embrace wider chassis and lower-sitting suspension. Both are impractical for daily driving.

Didn't affect my Honda CRX as a daily driver one bit! (Aside from a bit more care with clearance.)
A basic income distributed to everyone wouldn't carry the same stigma as "handouts." Those people wouldn't stop wanting jobs, I agree. They're not going to be satisfied to just be on the dole, and net taxpayer status will probably matter a lot to them. But the basic income would provide them with a fundamental level of security and mobility. It would keep money pumping steadily into the local economy. Small-time entrepreneurs would be able to take small-time risks; small corner-store businesses would be able to prosper. A worker would be able risk leaving a job, and training for a new one; they won't get stuck filling half of their potential just to keep their children in clothing. A more flexible workforce should lower a barrier to new investment in the region. Mobility for the higher achievers would mean more opportunity for those who just want to come in, punch the clock, check out and have a beer.

So it's an improvement but not entirely a fix.
I remember reading about how some scientists think everyone is technically on this spectrum (I mean, outside of the obvious "it's a spectrum so everyone is technically on it"). Ultimately it means the brain is far more complex than our attempts at bucketing disorders.

I'm very curious to see where this takes us. Does the spectrum just continue getting wider? Do we start finding more specific disorders and classifying those individually instead?
Which words sound the same when played backwards?
there is no 'programmer' role in the c-suite, but there are chief data scientists. data scientists have the ear of top management, and have direct interaction where that is rarely true with programmers, which leads to...

there isn't a silicon ceiling on a ds pay like there is with programmers, and I disagree they are equally lucrative. I have never seen ds roles that were not substantially paid more than programmers; although with the explosion of the ds role, there are plenty of sub-par ds positions out there. (according to glass door, the average programmer makes 70k, the average ds makes 128 in san francisco). That disparity even holds for large tech like facebook.

as far as 'less stress', I believe that is subjective. some people would like to program, others more ds stuff, and often ds and programmers get to do a little of both.
C# really tries hard at that fwiw
Probably to leave a mark on the world and to make life better for those I care about. To avoid poverty and lack of options.

In addition to inspiration, managing one's emotions certainly can help.

One thing I always tell myself is that if the current struggle doesn't work out, there are always family members whose basement I could live in. So a failure in one struggle is not an existential threat. That makes it less stressful to keep going.

I also try to focus on doing one thing at a time and the physical actions required. Be in the moment and you are out of your head. Progress is taking one step at a time.
I didn't pass judgement on anyone or any thing.

You did however. You called me insensitive and a fan of racist imperialism. And no, thats not acceptable or fair. It's just lame.

And the fact that you continue using your own twisted perception of something as justification for your uncalled for remarks is lamer still. Grow up.
I know I guess I just have to vent some frustration.

Does anyone have good hosting suggestions for a web app that has a 1GB database and a few thousand active users?

Plausible.

Maybe autistic potential fathers find more acceptance in today's nerd culture, and have the opportunity to pass on autistic genes :)

Early studies showed autism as 90% generic, but more recent ones put it much lower.
This will never happen in the US. You will have to move out of the country to a different country that institutes a UBI if you are looking for something like this (which I think is a good idea)
I think you know, but just to clarify for others: it is easily possible in the US to be in a situation where increasing the number of hours you work or accepting a job that pays more will paradoxically reduce your income:

It's not just the US. In the UK, you can go to jail for refusing to decrypt stuff.
this is the key point, getting a benefit, you are restricted in what you can do and you get problems as soon as you earn any extra money.... getting a UBI, which everyone gets, is different, you are free to do as much extra as you like. There are no requirements to show you are looking for work, meeting with welfare agencies etc etc. Benefits have a large negative stigma. People try to earn extra all hush hush / secret with large negative consequences if caught.

However, UBI does have some challenges. Current benefit systems try to adapt to each individuals situations, UBI is blind to individual circumstances.
Haha yes... I was also wondering what the article (or the headline) is actually stating. In that light it's also very questionable to assume that "people on that spectrum" create cost - even if you limit it to some range that makes intuitively sense.
That wouldn't explain why the rate is increasing, unless these autistic fathers are having higher than average children despite starting at a higher age.
>I find this hard to believe.

You don't have to "believe it". Just buy and read a few historical accounts, and/or biographies of people that lived through those regimes.

In wasn't that a job in "communistic days" was different from a modern job, it was that in those days productivity wasn't that high anyway neither was purchasing power, so there was little use for jobs to make things or offer services that people couldn't afford.

All the same, everybody was supposed to automatically have a job, hence the creation of tons of mostly idle bureaucratic job positions.
It doesn't sequester the carbon for very long, though --- the carbon lifecycle of a tree is, what, decades? It consumes carbon when it grows, and then it releases it again when it rots. So it's not really a long term solution.
Can you elaborate on how you internalized that it didn't matter whether you wanted to do something or not?

That's something I could really use.
> They wanted gainful employment and their dignity back.

That is in fact what a basic income allows, because it allows you to eliminate the minimum wage. Then anyone who wants a job can have it, because they are allowed to accept the wages employers are actually willing to pay, and in combination with the basic income still have enough to live.
The RF is pretty good looking, though the newer generations tend to have "evil reptilian eyes"-type [1] headlights and bodies with a kind of blunt chunkiness that a lot of modern cars have. I assume the intention is to impart a sense of muscularity, but to me that just looks misguided and embarrassingly macho, like the car equivalent of body building. I like the round front of the version shown in this 2012 article, was it ever made? [2] The RF's hood has those muscular side ridges which I think look terrible. Edit: The 2005 model has a round front like that [3], and is less evil.

(Agreed about the rest. I don't really know cars, so before I commented I just googled the various Miata generations and seem to have misread Wikipedia.)

I disagree with this part: "learning C before C++ teaches you how to program C++ wrong".

IMO the problem isn't so much about learning C or not. It's about which other languages do you learn alongside it.

You need to practice in a language that encourages OOP and a little bit of functional programming, like JS or Ruby.

If you know Ruby and C already, using C++ well will be much easier :)
Doesn't it strike anyone that perhaps of constantly trying to kill everything in sight that perhaps we should figure out a way to add super pro-biotics to our micro-biome to create little beneficial bacteria armies to fight the war against bugs instead of nuking our whole flora which then results in zero immunity and ability to fight anything off.

>If implemented, it will surely be a disaster in America (DOA - Dead on Arrival), considering how well African Americans have worked and abused the Food Stamps system.

Oh, couldn't be bothered to read the number breakdown AND racist to boot.

What do you know about "how well African Americans have worked and abused the Food Stamps system" apart from what some biased media tell you and/or a few anecdotal stories?
99% of SoCs have those issues, so I would guess yes.

I don't know. Why do people make these sorts of fear-mongering claims with no supporting data?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccination_policy#/media/File...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccination_policy#/media/File...

From what I can tell, this claim is simply false. The biggest difference in German vs US vaccination seems to be the lack of recommended flu vaccination in Germany. Plus rotavirus, which is perhaps less prevalent in Germany?
This particular bill explicitly allows for "net metering systems", which I believe is a reference to selling locally generated power to the grid. So it seems to be specifically targeting large-scale renewables.
Yes, they also come in multi-pound resealable containers. Those are also much cheaper than the convenience-oriented "snack packs".
I will position this first before I go on: I think in theory, you can learn almost anything on your own, I'm now going to talk about the reality that I feel is true for most people and things based on my observations and observations I have seen, heard, and/or read about online.

I would argue not programmer, but perhaps computer scientist.

They are fundamentally different things to me. Programming, and its human facilitator, the programmer, can certainly be learned without a degree. I can teach myself to program fairly well in say, Python, in a few months.

What I can't teach easily, in my opinion or rather what can't be taught easily without some uni resources (going to college, maybe not, but to be honest i think the learning format has some advantages here), is say how to proof formal methods, Computational geometry, higher levels of information theory. Quantum Computing. all realms of computer science. Yes, lots and lots of CS depts teach you how to program in languages, but the ones I find that don't burn out in the long term aren't merely programmings, but have a strong understanding of the discrete mathematics that make up a lot of our modern systems.

I could go on, but I feel like its going to go into rant like an old grump territory.

I do have a bone to pick with this particular article as well:

"I will write separate articles on Data Science Books (I’ve read 127 of those in last six months)"

Unless those books are 20 pages long, you have not read them. Skimmed maybe, but completely read and logically understand the implications of those books? I have to call foul on this.
I haven't seen an answer that actually addresses this beyond the political divide.

The state legislature fear regulation that would limit coal and force a quota of renewable that may be more expensive, while a "cheaper"(coal, gas, etc) resource exists. I try not to see this as a "Look at us we love coal" and more of a "We want cheap energy(and jobs) through any means necessary".

Side note: This isn't my personal view, just an argument I continuously see in this fight.
The US does vaccinate more than other countries, but it is not 4-fold higher. See this very interesting infographic:

http://www.bmj.com/content/351/bmj.h5966/infographic

By age 6, the standard vaccine schedule would result in 49 vaccinations in the US, 44 in Germany.

Technically it would be possible to use JavaScript to intercept the onSubmit event of such a form, and alter the submission location or send the data insecurely wherever you want with AJAX, completely ignoring the destination action that came with the initial HTML. This is one of the reasons people have needed to use forms within secure iFrames to circumvent PCI Compliance requirements when sending credit card numbers.
This is a persistent and pernicious misconception. UBI is intended to increase people's autonomy, but manly by eliminating the poverty trap. Too many people live off benefits they would lose if they took a low paying no job, so are better off or only marginally worse off not working. UBI takes that problem away to that everyone would always be substantially better off working. It would act as a major subsidy for low paying jobs by ensuring even quite low pay would represent a major improvement in marginal income, thus making it cheaper to hire unskilled labour and increasing the number and variety of jobs. It's not intended that a significant number of people would only rely on their UBI.
That's the point. SSL/TLS is a standard feature nowadays. If you're a web host and you don't support certs or charge some unreasonable fee for adding them (and I'm well aware there are far too many of these out there), then you need to be losing business fast. Your customers should be moving to better competitors. This measure just accelerates this process.
I seriously commend your mother for that. But just because she could do it doesn't mean everyone else can, or is in a position to do it. You're judging the entire rest of the world on the basis of your N=1 life story. I'm sorry to tell you, dude, but not everyone is as awesome as your mom, and to dismiss anyone who isn't out of hand as being too lazy, or too afraid, or too unwilling is exactly the kind of myopia I'm talking about.
>I opt out 100% of the time in the US. There is no readily available linkage between my presence at the pat down and my identity. I have never had to identify myself for scanning or for pat down.

It's common to get a mark on your bags (marking you for further checks) as they pass through the belt, which can be put there depending on whether or not you seemed suspicious to the guards. No need to actively identify yourself for that.
Transport.

Fossil fuels are incredibly energy-dense and convenient to transport and work with, while renewables aren't. There's plenty of transport systems that are utterly reliant on fossil fuels and couldn't be converted to renewable energy. Carbon sequestering would allow continued use of these while staying carbon-neutral.
They've actually found that you can diagnose autism in even younger children e.g under a year. Way before vaccines are given. However such screening has not yet become widespread.

I think an AI program could help screen here.
