What would you think about a degree in "Software development"* from an accredited university? I'm sure it won't hold the same weight as CS but would you at least put it in the same league?

*It's basically CS minus the math.

This took real guts. Remarkable.

In "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" one of the most important habits (my opinion) is:

"Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood"

This is incredibly important and it can only be achieved through dialogue. Regrettably our universities have become some of the most intolerant and bigoted mono-culture environments around. What kids are exposed to is nothing less than indoctrination with caustic effects. These kids don't arrive at university with such ideologies but the ideas are pounded into their heads by often-militant professors who, due to their twisted, intolerant and one-sided ideology should, in reality, be kept as far away from kids as humanly possible.

Yet, as the article states, universities have, over time, become echo chambers for a single world view that is violently intolerant of anything that does not align with their ideology. This is wrong and it will eventually have consequences, again, as explained in the article.

Bravo.
This is always the "fun" part. You're writing code for a medical device that is processing somebody's blood and there may be a physician waiting for the test results. 40 minutes into the test a pump jams or gets sticky from all the fluid it has to push around all day. You absolutely do not want to throw that blood sample away and start over. Hell, there may be no sample left and a nurse is going to have to go stick the baby again to get more. Now you have to figure out a sequence that can recover the hardware to keep processing that test, while not affecting the other 100 tests that are also running in parallel with it. And then design this for all the potential failure points in the system...

Yea, "fun"
My mistake; I read about it (http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/remove) too fast and thought it was the simple inverse of copy. I wasn't aware of it before this thread.

In the unlikely event some future reader is copy-pasting these snippets, here's the corrected version:

const auto last{ std::remove_if(vec.begin(), vec.end(),
[](const auto x) { return x <= 2; }) };
vec.resize(last - vec.cbegin());
I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. Humans producing heat is not the problem; humans producing pollution is.
"Breaking" in that sense isn't the same as in the sense my posts are talking about.

It's "breaking" in the sense of compatibility. If an app runs on Win 7 and Win 10, Win 10 didn't break compatibility between Win7 and Win 10 because an upgrade doesn't go through properly.

And while I have heard plenty of issues with upgrades, I've also personally had 0 issues with them since 7, on any of my personal machines, even some in the insider track.

Even in the thread you link to almost every other response is in line with what I mean: "it's usually very very hard to accidentally make a program run on Windows version N but not on Windows Version N+1"

Good to know that mattermost works for that large team size!
Yes, and most of your linear algebra on the field as an engineer consists of plugging numbers into MATLAB and letting it crunch.

It's much better for the bottom line if you just use everything out-of-the-box and bolt it together with duct tape and bubble gum.

Cool to see in terms of Go style how they handle errors -- https://github.com/upspin/upspin/blob/master/errors/errors.g... It's a common pattern I've seen, but given that this comes from Rob Pike etc., glad to see that the pattern is considered a good one

"A curious mind, with a taste for the abstract. A diploma is just one clue."
This is me and my BA in math. I would like employers and coworkers and people to understand this point. They often don't get it. Also, I think I've come to realize that I am actually a slow learner. I need practice and patience to deeply understand something and confidently talk about it. Where do I belong then? Personalities who say they are quick and are able to confidently sell things erk me and makes me question if they truly have the best they can give. You could read a Wikipedia page about some things and sound awesome if you have prior knowledge and a quick wit be able to convince most people of expertise.
The two inputs to production are capital and labor. You need to make profit by paying below market rate for capital (like a bank borrowing from the Fed) or by paying less than the value created by labor.

Is your policy a standalone policy or bundled with another policy, where the marginal overhead of the renters policy is lower?

Also, the $100k liability coverage you're referring to is more likely than not personal liability coverage, not property damage liability. The intent of that is to cover any claims resulting from e.g. one of your guests getting hurt on the property. Not to cover structural claims themselves. Most of the rentals I've lived in require that coverage, as it makes their premiums cheaper since their liability coverage acts as an umbrella policy that only triggers after that $100k is exhausted from your policy. But any structural claims that don't include personal property or liability issues would still go straight to their policy, not yours.
They're not going to be terribly impressed if they work out you've done this. Consider whether the risk of having this discovered, the risks to you about what you'll need to say when they get suspicious about a wiped laptop, and whether the consequences of getting caught out are worse that the consequences of having CBP gain access to the data you carry across the border...

I wouldn't do this - I'd either wipe/factory-reset the laptop before travelling (and plan on downloading whatever data I need while travelling once through border control), or just take a minimal plausible setup and accept that it'll possibly get searched/imaged at the border.
MediaGoblin: Free Software Media Sharing
Sure, you should try to pause and understand someone's opinion. But equally important is not doing that ad infinitum. Some people are just wrong. Rejecting someone's arguments entirely should be done very sparingly, but sometimes it's a valid option.

Also most of those labels are falsifiable.

No. They stay on the platform. Just as software developer consultants who don't yell at clients stay at their agency.

Almost every other country tips restaurant servers <1%. Tips aren't required for adequate compensation. This should be covered by a competitive base wage.
Before you can empathize you have to be sincerely curious, "What is it that they're seeing that I don't?". Unfortunately the lack of intellectual curiosity, the disinterest in thinking critically, is something that has infected universities from the outside and universities have been powerless to stop it.

Personally my favorite memory of college was talking politics with a professor who was opposite of me on the traditional political spectrum on almost everything. We enjoyed talking to each other, we argued quite a bit, but I learned a lot. The most important thing I learned was that despite all of our differences we agreed on more than I would have possibly imagined.
I don't think there's a general answer.

From what I could see pay was on par with most enterprise development. Well above basic web stuff though.

Like the other poster said, if all you do is code, then your position is pretty weak. I have an EE background and I'm pretty good with mechanical things, so I could debug the electronics and figure out issues with mechanisms, etc. (most of my programming career has involved writing code for things that move) My skillset pretty much goes from low-level assembly code up to writing simple web apps, so I was generally able to handle anything thrown at me. I'm also pretty good with creating documentation, understanding the business and built up my domain knowledge at any company I've worked for.

In this field, the more you know, the more valuable you become because it tends to require a wide range of expertise. IME, the people who have done well are always generalists.
And deliberate trolls should be exposed to protests. Protests are a form of speech too.

> That is, I'd conjecture that the good developers who can (or want to) memorize algorithms and regurgitate basic CS knowledge are one kind of capable dev, and the good developers who rely on tools to a greater degree are another kind of dev. Call them types A and B.

I really dislike this characterization. I'm a googler. I've never tried to, or needed to, memorize algorithms. I don't know if this characterization comes from misunderstanding, rationalization, or what, but in my experience at least, neither do most of my coworkers.

That is, I at least don't recall a rote algorithm when interviewing In fact in one of my interviews (not at google, but I could see a similar question happening there) I had to derive a solution to a problem in a space I was totally unfamiliar with (locking and multithreading).

It seems like, if you assume (incorrectly) that somehow you can't cheat the system, Google is selecting for people who can solve unfamiliar, complex, problems by applying first principles. That is, I think, orthogonal to the idea of 'theoretical or practical' computer scientist.

> Not when you move them from board to board

That's not true. Did you try it?

> I recall (can't test this) that moving a card is not logged.

Moves between boards and lists are logged. Moves up and down a list are logged, but not shown in the UI (only visible via the api). All moves were shown at one point, but it was just way too noisy.

> card urls are not stable over different boards.

That's still not true.

> moving cards over columns.

The card moves physically each time and each move appears in the log.

> I'm absolutely sure I saw advertisement in a card.

Trello suggests turning on a power-up if it looks like it would help (like github power-up if you attach a github link). "Advertisement" seems like a strong word here?
Also regarding Renee French's artwork - I much prefer this logo over the Go mascot. Upspin's mascot has a fully awkward tone and appearance, whereas Go's mascot has a more polished tone that contrasts too much with the otherwise awkward appearance.
Taking this as a given, lets accept and openly acknowledge that universities are not seekers of truth, but rather political and social actors seeking to serve their own interests. Any claims they make otherwise are just propaganda.

Of course with this in mind, it's significantly harder to oppose Trump's proposal to defund Berkeley (or whichever college). Why is taxpayer support for a political advocacy group somehow sacrosanct?
I've heard that before. I'll believe it when I see it :)
You are my last resort for the US
With the end of March coming I post this message as my last resort. I have been planning to come in the US for a long time now. I am French and had been with my American girlfriend for four years. Long story short, being engaged added so much stress than with the long distance relationship, things went south...

I love and still plan to live in the US and I am looking for any company interested to sponsor a H1B before it's too late for this year.

I am a Full Stack Ruby on Rails developer. I did a Master in Computer Science and I have been able to work with: Obj-C for iOS, Nodejs, and now RoR and React. I was the main architect at my last startup, starting from scratch to more than 80 tables, 3 RoR apps, with cache in Redis, etc... One of my most challenging part was to do a webapp very close to the search page of Airbnb. I made it with React/Redux/Thunk for the front, and using custom ElasticSearch queries exposed by a RESTful API for the backend. It was challenging because each part asked for specialized skills (React/Redux and then ElasticSearch) but it was also very rewarding at the end.

I love technologies and I am an avid learner. My last personal goal was to do the Machine Learning online course of Stanford (the real one instead of the mooc on coursera) and now I am currently learning more about k8 and microservices. I love to build a product with high quality code and to be part of a team/startup where I can give my input for features in UI/UX, backend... Being part of something.

I am also open to other languages like Java/Scala (it can take a little bit of time to learn thought but I am interested in FP), Python, or Golang.

I love running, cycling, and reading books.

Please if you want to learn more and/or are interested in my profile, don't hesitate to contact me at bdelmas (dot) pro (at) gmail (dot) com. I would love to come back in this country, and if someone gives me this opportunity it would be amazing.
Sure, but there's some space between "full value of one's labor" and table scraps.
What I was trying to get at, is that sometimes people use the word 'attacking' when other people are shouting down and being mean and nasty to people who hold a different viewpoint than them. But other times people say 'attacking' when people are calling out bigotry in a completely appropriate way. Like, yeah you're going to catch heat for calling the FLOTUS an ape in heels.

I'd agree that attacking in a mean and nasty way is rarely productive. But there's also a place for loudly condemning hatefulness and ignorance, usually when we're talking about public figures who are willfully divisive or hateful. If David Duke decides to hold a white power rally I don't think it's inappropriate for people to loudly protest someone like him. Or a politician getting in front of a crowd talking about 'legitimate rape'.

> Price that a critical mass of consumers are willing to pay

Sure, but Instacart is demolishing a very worker-popular tipping feature. That suggests that actually, there is a critical mass of consumers willing to pay more.

The question is, why does it matter to Instacart so much that some consumers pay less than what they're willing to pay?
Very cool! May be such visuals can be incorporated in the official documentation.

A lot of commenters are speculating as to AI analyzing the risk, which, as they also point out, isn't necessarily a new idea. However, if I interpret the article correctly:

>Indeed it has so been achieved. It is available 24/7, courtesy of a delightful bot who will fashion you a $5 policy in 90 seconds and with zero paperwork.

Between this and the comments about acquisition costs, it seems like they're saving a lot compared to traditional (legacy) insurance companies by cutting out customer service reps and agents.
If you do that then only the driver gets the money, not the shopper. Plus, if the tip button worked as intended, why would it matter how you tip?

I'm extremely interested in comments as big data (to try to understand social networking patterns better from studying the structure of nested comments) and I'd like to get a handle on the opposite point of view - what is it that you prefer about this approach?

While this might be interesting to you it is in the best interest of the site owners and commenters worldwide that not everything they write is instantly correlatable to anyone who happens to work for Facebook or be in a position where they can somehow buy or otherwise demand this data from them.

This requires custom knowledge. If an attacker swaps out the page and serves the links from some other unusual site (or even the.earht.li), who is going to notice? Only old-school people with that custom knowledge who also check the source of the download link.

The best way to deal with a speaker who openly advocates for genocide is to let them be heard and be rejected on the (lack of) merits of their argument.

Would decent people --intelligent students at a university-- truly buy into these arguments? I think not.

What's to fear, then?

The best approach is to actually invite them to make a presentation and thank them profusely for coming. I would start the presentation with a sustained five minute applause.

Imagine, then, the message that would be sent to, say, a white supremacist speaker who, after being received in this fashion watches the entire venue slowly and quietly empty without saying a word until they are speaking to a bunch of empty chairs.

A voluntarily empty hall, not by force, not by burning down the town, is the best vaccination against these people.

So, yes, this means opening the doors to what we might consider to be hateful. Unless we have a fundamental lack of faith in the quality and intelligence of the student body the best approach is to let these speakers in and let them experience talking in an empty room.

Maybe a few will want to listen to them. So what?

Intelligent, quiet and non-violent rejection, that's the way to do it.
Make Animated Video 7Upload in YouTube, Increase Viewers
We have something interesting here, in that I'm looking at this from the perspective of someone the Google system rejected (and who later decided/rationalized/realized participating wasn't really worthwhile) and you're looking at it from the perspective of somebody it embraced.

Naturally, it wouldn't boil down so easily in practice to these two types, even if they are the correct ones. Everybody is a mix of both (and plenty of other things); plus, we have to assume that, like you say, occasionally somebody incompetent or strongly type B "cheats" the system and gets hired.

But I guess the question is: How, to you, does "selecting for people who can solve unfamiliar, complex, problems by applying first principles" not seem to jive with my definition of category A?
