Some background:

1) Traditional Journals: author submits papers for free. Libraries pay to subscribe to journals. Articles are available online only for (very high) fees. The author typically has to sign over the copyright to the publishers, so now the publisher owns the final article, which often was entirely publicly funded (research, writing, peer review), yet there is no open access.

There are thousands of journals, but a few big publishers (Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, Taylor Francis) own most, and you might have come across their paywalls.

They make obscene profits - their inputs are basically free (articles, peer review), and they charge the libraries extortionate amounts, often through bundling (you want the prestigious journal you must have? well, you got to subscribe to all the other crap we publish, too), literally dollars per page.

2) Resistance. Scientists/librarians etc. noticed and objected. However, it is not easy to change:

Scientists need to publish, and they need to publish in high prestige/impact journals, and the prestige/impact is tied to the title, and the publishers own the titles. (The margins of academic publishers are abnormally high, indicating some sort of market failure.)

Nevertheless, an alternative emerged:

3) Open Access journals. They follow a different model - author retains copyright, and the journal allows open access to the finished article (by putting it on the web, say). As they don’t/can’t make money from subscriptions, they normally charge the author for publication.

So, this is a much better model in terms of, well, open access. Good thing. And, in fact, many grant giving entities (government bodies, Gates foundation, etc.) now stipulate that the research they sponsor has to be published with open access (and they often then cover publication fees).

However, now:

4) Predators: Where previously the journal had an incentive to make the bar for acceptance high (because they needed to sell the result), now, if you get the author to pay and don’t care about sales, you have an incentive to make the bar low.

Thus, predatory OA journals emerged that would basically take the author’s money, say, “yes, nice article, accepted”, and put it on some shoddy website. The author would put it on their publication list - which they now can blow up for a few hundred or thousand dollars.

"Beall's List" just listed these predatory journals of questionable quality that would just take your money and give you a "publication" to put on your CV. It was well know among librarians and scientists that cared, and apparently now it's gone.

(As a sidenote, there also seem to be conferences that are expensive and accept anything, typically in nice locations. So, you basically submit a talk/paper/poster, get a few days vacation, ideally get a travel grant, and then put it on your CV, too.)
After half penning comments a few times, Im just going make a top level one.
This post talks as if the study of pedagogy doesn't exist and, as someone pretty interested in the field, it just pains me. There's a lot of progress in the field but to hear people in this tread talking about grading on a bell curve I can see why people outside of the education community might think there isn't (current [as in the past 50 years that's how behind you are] pedagogical theory focuses on the idea of mastery and building on compounding skills; there's no value in tuning a test to produce a Gaussian)[0]

All the OP's proposed suggestions can, and do, fit into a semester homeec course many highschoolers already take, so I just can't see the supposed failing.
The reduction of a basic foundation of facts to "useless trivia" is the reason we can have white house offficals take to the news and say they have alternative (but somehow equally valid) facts. Without this foundation (of conveniently measurable skills and masteries, who do you even evaluate a "good apology") students are essentially cut off from a memetic ocean of shared knowledge. You cannot have a functioning democracy without a populace with basic literacy and numeracy as well as a shared body of facts that acts as the training set for all subsequent facts.

Not to diminish your accomplishments, and I applaud your efforts to educate yourself. I was just thinking how odd it would sound if someone were to say that they were a self taught civil engineer or a self taught chemical engineer. This is just because I'm used to the word "engineer" being regulated, as it is in the countries I have lived in.
Actually yes. As a commenter above me hinted at, you would if it was the only option you had.

I searched many times the comparison of Erlang BEAM and JVM regarding performance but couldn't find much. May be it is not done, or maybe it is not publicly available. At my work some folks keep pushing RabbitMQ over ActiveMQ for no other good reason than it is in Erlang so we will get much better performance. I know it is not true but could not find web links to support that.

They were doing the same as us with children who were around 5 years old -- going to to parks, playgrounds, and other organized activities -- it was all organized and controlled. Many locals complained to me about how exhausting it was to have kids in Tokyo and didn't enjoy it.

I never felt like an outsider at all, that wasn't an issue. The issue was that you have to make a daily effort to get your kids outside whereas in the suburbs here in Seattle, they can just go outside when they want. That's not an issue once your kids get older, but at 5 and 6 it's a little early to let them run around Shinjuku. It would have been easier if we lived outside the Tokyo center.
jajaja some middle school nicknames live longer than they should
even at scale, it's the same thing, even more so.

just remember I'm not saying caring vs coding skills.... I'm saying caring from when you are noob through to your entire growth as a programmer will define you as a good programmer, as opposed to an average one. An average one will also adopt coding skills and be... ok, average programmers will be inspired by good programmers and want to emulate them, "wow! that person did some awesome stuff with React!, lets do React! it is all things awesome!", but then you find while it's certainly got some things you appreciate, you end up with average React code because you adopted the the framework and not the mindset. My observation is good programmers start... and continue with a mindset. "It works" is never quite the goal, it needs this quality of being "good", good code, good design, good Ux, which we won't try and define, but more importantly is driven by caring about the outcome.

I guess that's more my reflection on my observations, what I have observed is having taken on people out of uni ( or crossed into programming from math / science / engineering ), and seen them develop over the years I have this sense of "good programmer" from the beginning, it's not once they reach some level of coding ability. They always do good things with their current capabilities. They then carry on and improve those capabilities and do even more good things.

Are you one of those people who thinks a modern democratic republic somehow isn't democratic? Did you miss my whole line about constitutions and laws? Those are fundamentals of a modern democratic republic. Why is it that every time someone mentions a democracy, someone like you pops up and claims that a modern democracy isn't a democracy?

Read this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_republic

Line 1: "A democratic republic is both a republic and a democracy."

Furthermore, not all republics are democratic. North Korea and China are both republics, as is Iran. I already mentioned China in my previous post. Do you really think North Korea protects anyone's inalienable rights? Or Iran?

$400x1000 sqftx50% markup is around $600k. Which seems reasonable to me for NYC. But the real prices are way above that.
I would also suggest anyone that is interested in BEAM robotics to take a look at Braitenberg Vehicles[1]. These are simple reflex-based robots that can exhibit complex behaviors due to their interaction with their environment. Originally, they were thought experiments by the psychologist Valentino Braitenberg who showed in his book, Vehicles[2], how one might ascribe complex emotional and mental states to a simple automaton if one only observed its external behavior. For a fascinating earlier example of analog robotics, (and the first example of true autonomous robotics to my knowledge) one has the work of Grey Walter and his "tortoise" robots[3].

Kill performance. It's 2017; if you're running Win10, BSODs nowadays almost always mean you have a legitimate hardware failure or you're actually working on developing drivers. The OS has gotten very robust against the kinds of crap application-level software can pull to crash the OS.

It is not yet bullet-proof against a process deciding that it deserves all of your CPU and so much RAM that the disk cache needs to thrash to support it.

Like everything, it's a mix of good and bad. Maybe it does bring many of the noncontroversial benefits of the modern world to people who would not otherwise get them, and maybe sometimes it can inflict other forms of harm to the indigenous people who are enjoying those benefits.

Like everything more complicated than "1+1=2" or "the sky is blue", it's a superposition of a bunch of pros and cons that different people will all weight differently. Where human nature screws everything up is the brain's tendency to want to focus on one pro or one con and pretend like everything else doesn't matter, or ignore the fact that rational, informed people might still disagree on how each pro or con should be weighted when evaluating whether something is a net good or net bad.
And also another source of British vs. American dialect difference/confusion. In my experience, they're known in the U.K. as "woodlice", but in the US it's entirely reasonable for grown adults to refer to them as "roly-polys"

Waaah, my think tanks are better than yours.

The article claims that all these alternative viewpoints are false, but they totally fail to actually refute anything specific. The article is more of an attempt to slander every alternative viewpoint as "racist" by associating it with a fringe element. Then as the cherry on top, to support their views, they interview people from the very same "think tanks" that led us into the Iraq war based on fake news.

We know you can look at numbers in all different types of ways. There are lies, damned lies and statistics after all. But calling every alternative viewpoint you don't like "racist" is the same failed strategy that led to Trump. Don't you think it's time to try something new? How about actually refuting the specific points you are opposed to instead of simply parroting the obviously partisan viewpoints of establishment "think tank" hacks?

Here's my speculation on why you got downvotes, based on how I would criticize your post. You're missing a third possibility: That it is a stretch to say that the "worse [than headaches]" could be seizures. It's a somewhat extraordinary claim, and you provided 2nd-hand, circumstantial anecdotes in support of it.

Software architecture questions are an interesting topic because unlike software implementation, you cannot simply give someone a task and ask them to demonstrate it. Architecture is not just a matter of selecting components, it's about understanding conflicting roadmaps for multiple teams and available human talent and technical resources.

My favored approach for it has been to ask people questions that mirror problems I've been forced to solve in the past at the current venue you're hiring for. I think this approach has a number of advantages:

1. You know how YOU solved the problem, so you've got at least some qualifications to discuss it with authority.

2. You can answer any and all questions the prospective architect wants to ask. These questions and their quantity are often even more telling than any hastily described solution ever could. Do they ask about infrastructure? Do they ask about expertise? Do they mention specific tooling you yourself decided on?

3. This gives them a chance to wow you in a controlled environment. If their idea for a solution is better than yours, you know you have a very high value candidate.

4. This also is a supreme test of technical communication skills. They need to rapidly get YOU to tell them things by asking questions, formulate an idea, and then communicate it to you in a way you can understand.

Of course this assumes the interviewer has done some architecture, but I think that's probably required to do this job right.

Personally, I think all this talk of "war stories" and whatnot is not a very good idea. If you're concerned about someone's personality and grace under pressure, you should treat that separately from their technical skills. That way you can weigh those attributes separately and fairly when it comes time to decide if you will hire the candidate.

Q&A Session with David Heinemeier Hansson
I like a well-done sequel. As much fun as it is to step into a movie world for the first time and find out what's going on, there's a certain sameyness to the requisite beats to establish origins, establish personalities, establish locations, just a whole lot o' establishing going on. Again, that's great and all, but it limits the amount of time for the story itself, and limits the range of stories that can be told.

Look at all the superhero origin stories that have come out lately, and summarize to yourself the story in the movie, without including any of the establishing. Even in the best ones... in fact, to some extent, especially in the best ones... the story itself is quite simple.

The sequel will have a chance to spread its wings much more. The fact that so many fail to do so is... well... an interesting discussion on its own. But the really great sequels are often movies that had to be sequels, because they told a story too big to also have 45-75 minutes of establishing in there with them.
Human errors are more likely, but they are fairly well understood and you can safeguard yourself by putting more people higher up the stack checking things.

This doesn't sound true to me. The worst man-made catastrophes seem to frequently involve a human manually disabling some sort of critical safety mechanism (eg, Chernobyl). You could look at the checklist as a primitive form of automation that helps precisely because it removes human judgement.

In theory, automation could encompass the knowledge of the finest experts in the field. Humans get credit for being able to think flexibly and accommodate information that maybe wasn't included in the original programming. But if you're experiencing a six-sigma event that the system wasn't programmed for, what is the chance that Joe Random Operator (completed a two-month training certificate program) is going to be savvy enough to respond better?
For a lot of cases, I'm sure this is true. I have seen Starcraft II running in Wine smoothly and no issues though.

I agree and personally know two psychiatrists who share these views.

They interpret ADHD as the sign of an intelligent person whose talents should be cultivated separately. The mass education paradigm doesn't work for them. There's something highly paradoxical about ADHD: it's an attention-deficit disorder and yet many display hyperattention once they find something they do like.
Speaking of web seeds, the magnet: URI scheme—with an embedded web seed—has everything it needs to be an all-in-one subresource integrity + CDN-neutral subresource caching mechanism.

My 2 cents
1. You don't need a Ph.D to build a product that uses DL/ML. Some part of your work here could be to define the problem and to understand how to phrase the problem so that it is solvable (if its too easy, your moat won't be technological). Your contribution here could be applying deep learning to new applications. Specifically for applying DL in industry, someone with ability to quickly tryout a lot of things is a good thing to have (with some amount of self-discipline).
2. You don't need a Ph.D to be part of a team that is taking on a hard DL/ML problem. You will hopefully have leaders who can set the directions.
3. Ph.D like most degrees is a label. If you can develop the skills of a good researcher (like any other craftsman), learning to comprehend research ideas quickly, keeping tab of interesting ideas and recent progress, then one could easily find connections and even publish good papers.
4. Now if you really want to understand what happens deep down, why does DL work, to understand how it could be viewed as Tensor Decomposition or coming up with new mathematical optimization or drawing a new connection between sub-areas: then having dedicated time to build those skill-sets (aka Ph.D) is very helpful.
I've been thinking about this deployment thing because I'm experimenting with writing an "end user" application in Elixir + C port drivers. I don't see a particular reason one couldn't do something similar to "py2exe" and bundle everything into a single executable, with a custom loader to load modules from embedded resources. It sounds like a fun project, and one I might try out...

I have a laundry list of issues with the current administration but this is seriously alarming.

This is an administration that seems intent on openly lying to the public on even the tiniest of issues like inauguration crowd size, and large ones like accusations of voter fraud. An administration set on quashing any dissent and against the idea of a free and independent press. (See constant attempts to http://delegitimize/ the press and media, plans to defund public broadcasting, threats to open libel laws against the press)

And an administration that pushes aside and denounces experts in their fields for industry hacks and politicians with no knowledge and experience, or gigantic conflicts of interest - see Betsy Devos, Scott Pruitt, Rick Perry, see also claiming climate change is a hoax, wanting to appoint anti-vaxxers to lead a vaccine safety commission.

Trump voters, are you not the least bit concerned? I keep expecting some movement on the right to keep leadership accountable, but instead Republican politicians are falling in line hoping to gain some power in the new order.
