I've got a bit of a different tactic you might take if the CANSPAM thing stops working. I keep a copy of a form letter on Google Drive that I send back on any suggestion of a "job opportunity" on LinkedIn.

>>> START FORM <<<

Hi <name>,

Thank you for thinking of me for this opportunity. In order to save you time, I've created an initial checklist of information that I’ve found to be useful for evaluating whether I’d be a good fit for your position:

* What is the pay scale for the position? (If the pay is based on the resume of the candidate - what is the highest pay scale that the company could offer?)

* What is the name of the company?

* What is the title of the position?

* Does this position allow for remote work?

* What technologies and tools do the company use? (If unknown, leave blank.)

* Is there a job posting I can refer to for required/desired skills for the position so that I can make sure I'm a good match?

With the additional context provided by these questions I can give you a definitive answer on whether I’d be a good match to your position.

>>> END FORM <<<

It's a bit of an obnoxious thing to do but most of the non-affiliated recruiters will give up at the outset to avoid the chance of someone applying at the company behind their back (and thereby eliminating their hiring bonus payday) and corporate recruiters will often stop after they find out they can't satisfy my job environment requirements.
Meanwhile death and suffering will happen that could have been averted.

Or to put it in a stronger business-context, the money to be made here in the US will have been squandered by politics.

Because while there is a moral argument here, it's been thoroughly coopted by politicians using it to gain/keep power.
> Xcode 8.3 drops support for Swift 2.3. So, if you were holding back on your migration to Swift 3.x, now is the time to make the switch!

Python 2.x keeps working pretty well for many large backend-service codebases that need a lot of stability.

Swift 2.x is used for iOS and macOS client/UI apps that get significant UI "enhancements" every year. The stability desire is much less, in every sense.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Garbage like this is why I have never and probably will never do anything with my advertising qualification. There's nothing creative about this, the outcomes it produces are of no benefit (people will just ignore shill tweets), and it probably only exists to create a bit of short term "buzz" around the McDonalds brand.

The cynicism and disdain for consumers that it took to make something like this is almost sickening.
The article never defines what an error is, so I think it is very reasonable to take your approach. I think you're mistaking very abstract advice with very simple advice :)

It seems like KDE has always been too broadly focused instead of just trying to be a kickass desktop. Things like KOffice just seem to be unneccesary replication of effort to get prettier qt widgets.

10 years ago I KDE groupie, but on my latest install of gone with gnome and found the default themes (especially dark mode) to be much better. Also the fonts, I'm a programmer that wouldn't normally notice the difference between a serif and san-serif font, but whatever the gnome guys are doing looks absolutely gorgeous.
I agree the initial reply may have been a bit harsh, but you must see the irony in saying

> What most people do know is that Stack Overflow is a shit show in decline.

As somebody who contributes regularly to StackOverflow, I understand where you are coming from. That said, you have to understand that the people answering your questions are under no obligation to do so. If a question comes from a newcomer who has never yet contributed anything, why should I be motivated to put any effort into figuring out the problem and answering if the asker hasn't put in any effort either?
Will this money be put towards reducing harassment from the moderators? Wikipedia and it's gaggle of moderators make it difficult to add/remove things.

This was one long rambling plug for a website.
I installed my own sprinklers and drip - 22 zones of it. A Rainbird controller was going to be nearly $300. I went with a pi and loved it. Then came the real problem - I put the home on the market and ended up replacing my pi with a rainbird for the next people. Why? I kinda wanted to keep my setup and buyers didn't know what to think of it.

After I swapped it out I missed quite a few things - controlling it from my phone, from home or remote, being able to pull up a graph and see how long each zone ran. I wasn't in the mood to get up at 3am to see if the rainbird was working so I crossed my fingers and hoped it would work at least until the house sold. Setting up all my zones was a lot faster on the pi than it was with cranky dials and buttons on the rainbird. I won't miss it.

From that thread, "CSP already has a mechanism for hash-based whitelisting - if this is the only limitation, it'd be just as easy to allow cache-sharing whenever CSP is absent and/or the specific hash is explicitly white-listed." <- I totally understand the attack, but fail to see why it would be a problem if CSP actually does, in fact, have the ability to whitelist hashes (and looking at the spec, it does seem to, though I have not paid attention to CSP before and admit I could be misinterpreting the spec based on this prompt).

Nah. What we really want and need is a robot that while it mows the lawn, turns it into: its entire energy source, its entire pool of building blocks for daily (nightly?) self-repairs, for reproduction, for producing oh maybe fluffy warm wool and delicious milk/cheese/butter as a side product, and fertilizes the land from the occasional .. discharge resulting from perpetual energy production-consumption and internal cleanups/repairs, finally as it still does wear down as all physical assemblages are wont to with time, it leaves behind highly durable inputs for sturdy clothing and stylish home decoration (horns, hides, leather etc)!

All from a friggin lawn.

In the old days, we had intranets, knowledge bases, wikis and we tried manfully but unsuccessfully to somehow get people to document the good shit so others could use it for reference material.

Seems we've now given up on that and the new working model is just to blurt out questions in some push system, bugging everyone in the process, and then hope that someone blurts back an answer.

The same way you actually fix the problems. By figuring out the steps you need to take, and estimating their cost. If you can't do that then how are you going to fix the problems even when you do have the money?
Agreed. My subaru forester can do this with just 2 cameras by the rearview mirror. And it was <<30k out the door with 7 year warranty and 3 year maintenance.

That's marketing for you I guess. (Don't get me wrong, would get a Tesla if money were no object)
As ocdtrekkie pointed out, the key point here is he was soliciting former colleagues while there were still current colleagues. Even California won't protect you there.

The one tool companies have at their disposal in CA is the prohibition of using your old company's trade secrets in your new job. Mostly that means you can't take customer lists with you, but you also can't use confidential information to lure away former colleagues.

What that means in practice isn't completely clear to me, though it may just be that you can't take the org chart.

basically a drupal book module like function with user authentication, markdown first, flat-file(no database) support. that way I can import/export markdown files easily and can render them into browsers for viewing on the web with CMS-like protection, no such thing exist anywhere as far as I know.
That would be great! I bought a kit of accessories for the arduino/rpi for my son. He's really getting into building simple robots from Lego Technic. It would be great to incorporate some more advanced projects into his list.
You realize _why_ the questions are being closed, and instead of cooperating with the people trying to keep StackOverflow clean, you just go around them. I never understood why StackOverflow would try to find correlations in user votes (voting fraud) until now.

I am disgusted.
They were going to be required to essentially provide an API. It said nothing about forcing them to create client apps.

And religious people have argued that ensoulment did not occur until after recognizable human fetal development. And, by the way, female ensoulment occurred significantly later than male ensoulment.

Java is one language among hundreds that have come out these past twenty years.
Generalized to communications - my phone serves as a notification hub for me and it's on vibrate almost exclusively. Mostly, it's not even in the same room as me.

Unless for specific intent, I don't ever have communication tools fired up on laptop with exception of SMS' and phone call notifications through Continuity.

When I tell people about this, I usually get "stop being selfish" / "get off your high-horse" looks. I don't really care.
"support the development of tools for volunteer editors and staff to reduce harassment on Wikipedia and block harassers."

The only harassment I've seen on Wikipedia is from Little Napoleon long-term admins who grind contributors down with petty bureaucracy.
In that case, my fault for not being clear. You're right, I do lean towards the conclusion that some of those drugs enhance cognitive performance (particularly the ones that are used for treatment of ADHD), but you're also right that currently, there isn't sufficient evidence to treat that as a given.
A lot of people do, though. I don't understand why; there are a ton of other Android-capable devices already out there to choose from at similar price and performance levels.

There are a few "Android on the Pi" projects around. They all need work before they're remotely useable. Frankly, I wish there was at least one high-quality project to point people to.

Yea, if, as seems to be the crux of one criticism of the policy, is that it allows bad actors to simply pay for the privilege of their bad actions, penalties that scale to extreme quickly is probably the best method. It's unfortunate, since the (very large majority) of good actors are also at risk of punishment.

Seems like you would mean extremely common. The last 4 places I lived across the US had only one provider option outside of satellite. Not to mention the facts don't support that assertion.

Internet competition is irrelevant if the carriers are allowed to suppress competition with their own content by selectively enforcing data caps and using things like "traffic shaping" against companies like Netflix.
It has the upside of setting a strong precedent: the guy might be totally guilty but if the EFF can prove the search was overly broad, when cases are less clear then it would be more obvious to protect the privacy of the defendant.
Definitely check out Slack channels for the languages you're using. Many bright and helpful people hang out on IRC / Slack, and now it's easily accessible via browser.
If killing a person is murder, then there is no legal justification in carrying it out because one is a victim of a crime. Yet, in capital punishment cases, we go ahead and do so anyways.

There is also the religious assertion that in its present state, a zygote is a human being, yet, say, the biological matter that is removed from the body in a woman's period is not. I am not aware of an argument that does not hinge on the zygote being empowered by a magical soul.
Thanks, and sorry. You shouldn't have had to write this.
The whole "wealth management" industry is actually all about this. As long as they keep on operating as they do now, the gaming will continue.
Seriously, remove those apps. For the few apps I keep on my iPhone, THEY ALL have notifications DISABLED. No longer pestered by them, taunting me to log in again and look.
I think people greatly underestimate the importance of integration, but I take your point
There are a lot of people we've started working with (elderly populations, old age homes) for whom a monthly test is really useful (at-risk for a lot of WBC screenable conditions), but who don't want to buy an entire device/learn to use with app and related software. The monthly screen came as an offshoot of this population's use case.

While the front-facing website is a direct to consumer device, the majority of our deployed devices will be partnerships formed with clinics - this just enables anyone who wants to use the tech to be able to without the long email, custom quote, phone call, partnership process.

We don't need to have anything as complex as package manager. It would be much easier to just link to these libraries (and any other resource) by the hash of their content. If you do that you would just have to link to resources by their content hash.

I'm not really sure why this isn't already in place.

edit: The reason I'm not sure why because it sure seems to me that multiple threads on the post are all suggesting basically the same simple idea, the ability to serve a file by it's hash (either just by it's hash alone, or by a url + the hash). Personally, I think whatever form these url's take i think it ought to be backward compatible which I think is possible.
This problem you mention is easily solvable by having a dedicated email address for a job process, period.

That way you can safely forget about the existence of said email once you find a job.
I think they have a point in that case. You didn't have any interest in contributing until you had a startup you needed to promote. Also, unless your startup is notable it's not supposed to have an article.

"If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list... If a topic does not meet these criteria but still has some verifiable facts, it might be useful to discuss it within another article."

I think the ability to manage either people or businesses varies all over the map, and between techies and MBA's, maybe it's like a pair of overlapping distributions. For managing people, I think that there are both positive and negative skills, and I'm not sure MBA's learn exclusively one kind in the absence of the other. Stack ranking and open plan offices had to have come from somewhere.

Negotiating contracts is win-lose, so it's at best a coin toss.

I could see certain tasks being performed by someone who has shown a motivation to learn how, such as making business plans, schedules, and contracts. The MBA's at my workplace are certainly busy. But it could be selection bias: People with MBA's are selected from among people who want to learn those skills.

I've disabled all noises, vibrations, and 99% of notifications on my phone. For the few apps I do use, all of them are disabled from pushing notifications. Only iMessage and Unibox(email) get placed into the notifications queue. I just can not be glued to this thing anymore.

You are likely falling foul of three possibilities...

1 - Making your questions far to specific, so nobody else could ever benefit from seeing the answer to that question in the future. These tend to be down voted very aggressively. So you need to try and find a more generic way of asking the question so that others might be helped by the answer as well.

2 - Just plain dumb questions. Such as 'I needz site like Facebook. Hope to make? Helpz'. If you are doing that and do not understand why it is a bad question then I probably cannot explain it to you.

3 - Making you question so that it looks like you are lazy and getting others to do the work for you. For example, questions that look like someone's homework. No one wants to spend time answering if the questioner has obviously made no effort to solve it themselves. Stackoverflow should be the last resort after several hours of trying.

The site is basically made up of professionals and that often determines if the question is considered too simple or not.
Can you point us to the actual article you wrote? What was its title?
I really hate how easily they just waste your time.

Amazon recruiter: "Hey let's set up a call"

call happens, then they actually check into my background

Amazon recruiter: "uhh let me check on some things and call you back".

Never hear back. Just the blatant brazenness and stupidity of the entire exercise. You had time to coordinate and schedule a call out of my and your day, but couldn't even be bothered to look into my skills for 5 minutes? How does this help you recruit? How does this help Amazon? Like I get it, I don't have the pedigree of a Google background, cool, why even bother with a call?
It would be a huge stress and inconvenience if a company sued me, even if I eventually won or the suit was thrown out. I'd have to find a lawyer, deal with the company's lawyers, show up in court, etc. That alone is enough of a deterrent for a lot of people.
As far as I know since about 2 years ago translation and speech recognition on google phones are done with deep learning systems built into the phone -- a network connection isn't needed. However, I couldn't immediately find a source to verify. Can anyone confirm?

How many 50-person companies do you think have existed, globally, since 2001?

Lets just make some very rough estimates. Sweden with a population of 10 million creates an average of 36 500 new companies per year. Let say than 5% reach at some point 50 employees, which would result in 180 Wikipedia articles per million population per year. There is 7.4 billion people in the world, so that is 180 * 1000 * 7.4 * 16, which would be a bit over 21 million Wikipedia articles that only covers new 50-person and bigger companies (not including companies created before 2001).

The people who accused you of "single purpose account" were of course in the fault since they should have assumed good-faith, but I can't generally disagree with the notion that a 50-person startup might need more than employees to be notable enough for a encyclopedia.
This should be an easy fix. If somebody wants to jump in, this is a great first task!
