Private healthcare insurance is also offered as a benefit in places like the UK, but it tends to be the bigger companies that offer it.

It means the employee can get their treatment weeks, even months before they would have otherwise - that's important if you have a painful or debilitating condition. That is, the employee struggles to be an employee due to government budget constraints.

When Obamacare was first passed I thought that the best thing they could do for healthcare in the US would be to phase out employer medical benefits. If the cost of healthcare wasn't hidden, I don't think it would be used in the same way as it is now.

At the very least, there should be a federal program that covers all children. We can easily afford it.
You know, the sentence "I cannot pardon Snowden without a trial" does not necessarily imply it is physically impossible. He was saying "I choose to not choose to pardon him"
Or Obama was making the moral point that he couldn't pardon Snowden before he stood in court and faced justice.
You can have default implementations for methods if you'd like.
You are right.

The thing with stereotypes is that it lingers. But people from different generations might do away with that

Now, a Project Management position in a smaller company might require different skills. Being a Product Owner of a feature in a bigger product with broken down requirements coming from upstream is a very different job than POing at a smaller company where you have to come up with requirements based on goals.
Maybe im just old, but analog trigger buttons seem underused-enough that they could be sacrificed for cost. It seems to be basically only serious racing games that really celebrate them, since casual "kart" games have you flooring it all the time and non-racing games don't use them at all.

The disappointment for me is the high cost of the controllers even after sacrificing something like this.
Many would also work part time (e.g. to spend more time with their kid) if they could got health insurance at the same time. Detaching health insurance from your job is great for lots of reasons.

Take some time off. Instead of getting frustrated at your current job and doing something rash like quitting without a backup plan, take a week or two off from work asap. Give yourself some breathing room.

Think about why you're being rejected - you have just not yet found the job that fits you. So keep looking. It's hard but it will happen. Be positive yaar :)

You also should think of the people in your network who work at companies you're interested in. Finding a good role once you cross a certain threshold is difficult, is it possible that you have high standards and are looking down on some of the interviewers?

Forget about being Indian. If you don't care about it, you'll only be focused on what you bring to the table. You don't want to work in a team where race matters anyway.

I agree; I thought it was odd that he was being offered other positions (what kind of positions, OP?) and it sounds as though he's perhaps not as qualified as he thinks for the position he's seeking.

All these people talking about discrimination against South Asians... I don't know, every tech company today has South Asians and East Asians and just about every other ethnicity. I've worked on teams with Indians and Pakistanis for decades now, and I have yet to hear of discrimination, or to witness it.

Actually, our economy would grind to a halt if we got rid of all these Asian chaps. And why would we? As a rule, they're smart, they work hard, they're pretty well trained. The one slight stereotype if any, that I would confess to is that the Asians as a group tend not to be mavericks and cowboys. U.S. people and English, and to a lesser extent other Europeans, tend to produce more mavericks and cowboy programmers who question authority, think outside the box, etc. That may be changing, as more Asian folks are raised and educated in the U.S.

OP, I would also agree, don't change your name, tint your hair, and "become Western". Take pride in your heritage, for Pete's sake. Who likes a sycophant? Be yourself. And, perhaps, think about what else you might be qualified for that companies are seeing in you that you're not seeing in yourself. Sometimes you have to go where the market is.
This article is all about unwrapping the marketing copy and explaining why it sucks.

That's still valuable, but I was hoping for a more technical view on it. Anyone have an article that explains why the systems are as limited as they are?
This article should be read by everyone working in open space offices across the world expecting to get decent speed and reliability out of Wi-Fi with more than a dozen people in a single room.

An open space office (or any office) for a company that depends on the Internet for any of its work without Gigabit Ethernet cables sticking out of every workstation is pretty damn foolish.
There is a difference between maxing out the available power, and making the game work properly. You can have a less than visually impressive game, run at a solid frame rate. Then later on, have something like The Last of Us come out, and blow the doors off of even next generation stuff. Graphic fidelity isn't as important as performance. This is just a shitty port.

Patience?
there are a number of holes in your thought process.

first, and most important to this discussion, is that it is definitely deceptive especially when you are going to such extremes as documenting burner mobile phones and preventing their use on the pretense of hiding from regulators.

second, and less important for this discussion, but a business has he right to refuse service to any ONE person for whatever legal reason they choose (whether they specify hat reason or not is a different topic). this should not be confused with deniying service to a GROUP of people for whatever reason they want which is discrimination, and is illegal, whether outline in a TOS or not.
Why not `import Enum` to get rid of the redundant `Enum.` part? As imports are lexically scoped there is no need to worry about name clashes (e.g. Enum vs. Stream):

import Enum
[1, 2, 3, 4]
|> filter(fn(n) -> rem(n, 2) == 0 end)
|> map(fn(n) -> n * n end)
|> reduce(0, fn(n, sum) -> sum + n end)

While we're at it, why not use a `&` operator to shorten the lambdas:

import Enum
[1, 2, 3, 4]
|> filter( &(rem(&1, 2) == 0) )
|> map( &(&1 * &1) )
|> reduce(0, &(&1 + &2))

...is it that much worse than Ruby then? It's a bit different - the syntaxes are different, after all - but it doesn't look much worse, I think.

Elixir, as well as Erlang, are peculiar languages. To achieve succinct code you need to phrase your code in a slightly different way, using pattern matching and guards, an occasional macro and alias/import commands (in Elixir's case).

And the separation between the external interface and an internal implementation of any GenSomething is a valuable thing! Even if in most cases the external interface does relatively little, it's important to have them separated. That is because the external interface functions execute in the caller process, while the implementation code executes in the OTP process. If the caller submits an invalid value to be called/cast to your server, do you want to crash the caller or the server? With the usual pattern, you get to make this choice. And let's be honest - in the simplest case, it's three one-line functions (start, call, cast) per GenServer - it's not that bad of an overhead. There's also Agent module for when you don't need a full GenServer, using it eliminates all the overhead (in terms of lines of code) you normally get when using GenServer.

To be honest, the fact that an executive is prepared to publicly advocate harassment of journalists as an "ethical hypothetical" thing is a pretty good indication of what they actually are prepared to do in private. Sorry but the "I'm a good friend who overheard part of the conversation and don't think he said the things he's already apologised for saying" defence isn't the most convincing, especially given the company's well-publicised use of comparable tactics in other areas, including hiring private investigators to go after employees that had reported sexual harassment. Your insistence that Uber made real bookings (and just happened to cancel most of them) is a lie, period.

You don't have to think taxi medallion laws are particularly rational to find Uber's behaviour in many, many areas indefensible.
A strong belief is enough to make decisions based on emotions. Facts are only needed when it comes to thinking rationally.

A secure full time job is code for "consistent income". It's hard enough for people to budget and live on a consistent but middling income. Even more so if it's very low income. Inconsistency creates high anxiety and is a form hand to mouth living. It's very stressful. I don't think it's so much about the type of work it's just not having to live in fear.

Hi, I will be completing six year by September 2017. I am hoping to get my I140 approved by June end. I was under the impression that H1B extension can be done by premium processing so that I can stay beyond my six years. But this is shocking news for me. My attorney is saying that even my H1B can't be filed in premium. Is that true ? Please advise.
Not a gamer, but wanted a better mouse so I bought some razor mice products over the years, required internet to setup/huge bloated driver/software package, and then hardware wise the build quality wasn't there. Gave up on them and went to the Apple mouse, much happier (didn't realize at the time but gestures are much nicer than buttons if you're not a gamer).

I'm honestly not sure why it is, but across all browsers on both ARM and x86_64 arches it was almost 3x faster than doing what you wrote.

I have a feeling it's more of a JS JIT thing than a CPU prefetcher thing, but honestly I'm not really sure.

In my program I linked above, it was actually faster to use Uint32array everywhere and then use functions to pull the 4 color values from it and another function to push the 4 values back to a uint32.

Granted, it's been over a year since I last benchmarked that code, but I did reuse some of the image code recently and found iterating over a Uint32array to be significantly faster. (And funnily enough, manually unrolling the loop of Uint32array to something similar to what you wrote gave an additional small performance boost, but it was small enough to be not worth the extra weirdness in the code to me)
Using charities legally registered names and goodwill to acquire money into your business, with literally no connection whatsoever to those legally registered entities is the definition of fraud.

Imagine you started to collect on behalf of the red cross, directly to your personal bank account, then sent the red cross a letter, letting them know that if they wanted to register with you and accept your terms, you might give them some money that you fraudulently collected by abusing their name and good will.

Fuck PAYPAL
The most common reason I've turned down very qualified candidates is that they didn't appear to want the job very badly, relative to other candidates, and didn't seem willing to extend much effort to appear interested in the job they were applying for.

Some very experienced applicants seem to assume their experience weighs so heavily that their chances of getting the job are better than anyone else's, and that there's nothing else they can do to get the job aside from fill out the form and show up for the interview.

I've had very experienced candidates come to an interview and complain about their current jobs, and complain about how stupid all the young inexperienced kids around them are. I love hiring experienced people, but that is a total turn-off, and an indicator that this person will not try to work with others, will not fit in, and generally will not perform well.

You mentioned that you hate your current job. So my question is whether you're knowingly or unknowingly communicating that during your interviews. Even if you're not saying it out loud, one's demeanor, body language, tone, excitement level, etc. can all expose someone who's unhappy doing what they're doing, and presenting yourself as unhappy being a PM is - in my experience - the worst thing you can do.

Some other ways experience can work against you include that your salary is at the high end so employers feel they can get equally good work for less money, and that your experience has hardened you in the operating procedures of other companies. Employers want to feel that you're open to adapting, willing to learn, and will go out of your way to shed any old dogma you have that doesn't fit, and adopt new dogma that benefits the new company. A PM job also involves a lot of rallying people, so you have to come off as a person who's able to tell a good story and convince others to do what you need and follow your lead.

Good luck to you, and please keep in mind that nobody here knows what's wrong. It could be you or could be racial or could be a bubble job market in the area you're applying... all of these things are absolute speculation. Your question doesn't have enough information for anyone to know.
Yes I'm beginning to realize this. The number of tricks I had to use to convince llvm to optimize, when my c++ version just needed __restrict__ was disappointing. Likewise gfortran is way behind ifort.
Certainly it depends on which one of many jurisdictions Uber operates in.

For a start, in the U.K. it's illegal to use radar detectors [Edit: this first is apparently false; they publically stated that they were going to, but never changed the law. Other countries apparently do ban them, according to wikipedia.], and people have been given criminal convictions for "Flashing their lights" in order to warn incoming motorists of a speed trap.
>If this is true, then why are even bigger players with more resources like Facebook and Microsoft building on top of Electron instead of building natively?

Because software is a pop culture, and the latest fad always prevails at most shops. Also companies care more about cutting corners and shipping sooner than about the long haul.

At current demand levels, yes. But if we're talking about replacing concrete with timber, you're going to find it difficult to keep timber production sustainable, since it will have to massively increase to meet new demand.

Female hypergamy has existed as a sexual strategy since the dawn of humanity. Why would it suddenly cause all this change? I think you're getting the cart before the horse. A lack of dependence on men has caused an increase in the expression of hypergamy strategies not the other way around.

Female employment is the result of central bankers targeting full employment, which lead to inflation, which has lead to globalization[1] to escape labor cost inflation, which will again lead to inflation and of course automation is the only answer. Capitalism rewards those with leverage and automation is the ultimate leverage (beyond capital itself).

Lot's of infrastructure was built in 1950s/60s/70s. A reminder if we let rot our infrastructure, it's not good at all. (not implying it's the case with Oroville dam, haven't followed all news articles) Many concrete and steel structures have a limited life-time of 60-100 years (or so). Big infrastructure projects were built with ease back then, compare it too overblown "paper work" nowadays (not speaking about engineering, but bureaucracy). We should really look how asian countries excel at building infrastructure nowadays (they nowadays build multi-level highways and bridges in no time with ease, whereas building a bridge/tunnels in the west takes many years and cost way too much) and look back in history how to maintain infrastructure well over a timeframe of a few centuries. How many 1950s/60s/70s structures (big things like skyscrappers, dams, bridges, tunnels, subways, etc) are a risk, need repair or are beyond repair and need a replacement - is there a map? Is there a documentation about this topic or some interesting research in this field?
