protected class refers to groups of people who shall not be targeted by laws and regulations.

It has nothing to do with discrimination by companies towards groups of people.
I have gotten burnout a few times over the last few years, and every time my reaction has been to drop the company like hot cakes and take care of myself. I never understood all the braying about loyalty to a company. They aren't loyal to employees, if the roles were reversed and I did the things they did to me they would have fired me on the spot. In the end I think people have forgotten that their work is nothing more than an at will contract, and they can walk away anytime. I'm always reminded of Chomsky talking about the early industrial revolution and saying many people thought of the 5 day work week as only slightly better than chattel slavery, the only difference being you get to go home at the end of the day.

Of course there are consequences to such actions. If you live a lifestyle of debt, and you can't afford a few months without work due to all the needed payments, it becomes more and more difficult to break away from intuitively bad situations. To me, the real cause of burnout is the hopelessness that comes with being stuck in a bad situation and being unable to get out of it. Even if sometimes its more mind forged than reality.

For me, work has always been a means to an end. Since I got out of the Marines work was what financed my efforts to study and understand the highest level geopolitical picture because I was not satisfied with the answers to my questions about our wars. In the process I became a pretty good sysadmin, and tried to maintain excellence in what I did, but what I often found was incompetence or mismanagement prevented me from being as effective as I could be. Once a certain level of frustration was hit that wasn't justified to my salary, I knew it was time to go. For me then, pay really did factor in, but employers are drastically underpaying IT workers in Texas so my bullshit tolerance levels were lower than they could should have been if salaries matched work. I was also never perfect, and separation from a company has often been the move I needed to reevaluate and improve my skills, for example, For a long time I just wanted to be a senior sysadmin in the server room just doing all the hard, high level back end work, but I've learned that if no one is playing the meeting room, board room political/business games for the IT department, those more technical roles can't get their job done without interruption. Which is why I am increasingly interested in the role of CTOs and CIOs who are the ones who should be doing that for an IT department.

Bottom line is, burnout happens, don't be afraid to break away from it for your own health, and learn lessons in the process. Life is about making mistakes and learning from them.
This is a common and bad form of argument: "there is at least one conceivable justification for this law, so it is not rent-seeking".

But no one ever makes their primary public justification "we'd like to screw over the public and make more money". There is always something about some harm that the law will prevent. The question is whether the law is well targeted and proportionate. The restrictions on supply for taxi medallions fail that criterion by a long shot.

I also think there's a lot to be said for the routine of the "dad job". For many people, it's comforting to have structure in one's life, for every day to follow a similar pattern; surprises are stressful, and when every day is much like the last, you don't get many surprises. Someone like Elon Musk no doubt has busy and chaotic days, perhaps no two alike, and many people, in their heart of hearts, would not relish the prospect of that.

The rise of the so called "gig economy", and the increasing reliance on freelancing and remote work, does a lot to undermine the comfortable patterns and routines of traditional 9-5 work - for some people this is great (no drudgery of commuting is just one benefit of many), and for others I suspect it's quite the opposite. In so many of the "how to work remotely" guides you do, in fact, see a lot of importance placed on effectively separating work and non-work life, designating a specific area for working, and working particular hours - much of this, really, is intended to recreate something akin to the routine of the dad job, except without the office and the commute and the physical presence of your coworkers.
Awesome thanks. A related question, what are your thoughts on a complementary discipline? If you want to be sort of an all around engineer not just CS?
The biggest issue is that we would be the company that is providing the WiFi offload and the paid WiFi so we have control over most of the frequency and can channel plan and all that stuff. With LTE-u its going to be a lot harder to channel plan with the cell phone carriers. A lot of the LTE-u installs I bet are going to be contracted out. So to get to the right people to channel plan is going to be a lot of layers. And they may not even want to channel plan, since its unlicensed some people refuse to channel plan.
On Hacker News specifically, "Zuckerberg" seems to be more frequently used than the full "Mark Zuckerberg".

And quite a few Hackers seem to be on a first name basis with Elon and Linus.
"Obvious" to whom? There's been a lawsuit filed, that doesn't mean it's "obvious." We are certainly aware of PayPal's history as slimy (and my inclination is to side with the plaintiff in this suit), but suppose the plaintiff also is aware of this reputation and is lying in an attempt to simply cause PayPal harm?

How "obvious" is the alleged fraud in that case?
It is unlikely you'll find something like this, since general wisdom is that you really should not run NFS over WAN links (it doesn't deal with latency very well). (and if, then only through VPNs for security reasons)
This would be a lot better if it used vertical scrolling and not sideways scrolling.

The BBC did this site about director James Cameron exploring the depths of the ocean, and I think it works really well with vertical scrolling: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-17013285
I also work in product management and couldn't agree more with okabat's comment. PM means so many different things in so many different places.

One thing to try... if the shop isn't probing you to find out what you want to do as a PM, then you need to be probing the shop to find out what they're looking for.
The "Ms Mayer" is likely because this is a discussion about her executive compensation. The official Yahoo SEC filings regarding her comp use that term over and over: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1011006/000119312515...

Because even more people would choose not to obey the individual mandate and the system would work even worse.

Of course, before Obamacare it was because pre-existing conditions made the private health insurance market ridiculous.
I'll second the point about overall confidence. I started so that I could do presentations at meetups/conferences but it became so much more important outside of work.
Compelled to reply, even though I don't know how it relates (directly).

TL;DR: IMHO, Conservation is an accounting problem, adding externalities to the ledger, making local tax payers aware they're getting screwed.

I volunteered for a wetlands conservation group, about 10 years during the 90s.

Wetlands, riparian areas, bogs, marshes, etc are habitat for birds, fish, their predators. They slow down the water during storms. They clean the water. Etc, Etc.

We might have slowed down some development, in one county that had somewhat better governance than its neighbors. But habitat destruction continues. Ditto flooding. And the fisheries we were trying to protect were later proposed for endangered species status (all but gone).

One signature achievement was creating birding trails, partially funded by state tourism bureau, to better rake in those sweet eco-tourism dollars. (~$140m/yr during the late 90s.)

People will be surprised that Bush Sr signed the first federal wetlands protection legislation. Lots of optimism during the Clinton years. Then Bush The Lesser happened. And after a decade, we just kinda ran out of steam. Today, I honestly don't know who's working this issue locally.

I have one more point to add. It's notable that the "environmental movement" was born in Southern California, where the residents could see the destruction and consequences occur in real-time vs spread-out over generations.
If a human were to do something like this he would get prison time.
Instead since it has been done by "a company", nothing will be done. I wish we, the humanity, would start to treat limited liability only as a financial tool.
If something like this is done, it's not the company that must be sued, but the people who made it.
Just because the law is problematic (and let's be clear, it's problematic, but 1000 times less so than drug laws, for instance) doesn't give Uber a blanket right to keep cops from hailing their vehicles, unless you really think that there's no scenario where Uber or its drivers could be legitimate targets of investigation.
In case you didnt realize, [s]he was being sarcastic.
I agree with you, I was trying to make my point more clear by comparing the extremes, since it's a subtle point. I realize I run the risk of sounding like I'm suggesting people should be open to taking less than they're worth. That's not what I'm suggesting. I'm suggesting that attitude matters, and that's not a trend.

Please do keep in mind the context of my words. Parent comment said "I need a job badly". You wouldn't walk into an interview and say that out loud, right?

Larger context, OP said he has a good resume and is professional, but it isn't working. There can be more to it, and not because it's fasionable or trendy, but because there always have been and always will be human factors.
Have you ever built "moving" wifi networks (trains, planes), and do those have special challenges?
Cracked screens happen when you drop it, and kids just don't have enough height on them to generate the forces needed.

Also adults think nothing of putting huge padded cases on kids' iPads. I can't be bothered with a case for my phone.
Let me put it to you this way:

There is no place to live that is totally safe from bad weather. It is in the best interest of every citizen of the United States to pay for climate and weather modeling as disastrous weather can have massive impact on the economy. Also, from a moral standpoint, I personally don't mind shelling out some money to try and keep people safe.

As to your point about people living in areas where weather tends to be statistically more dangerous: If the government came to your house and forced you to leave, how would you feel about that?
Thank you for that story. Though not related to a corporate environment, I've been going through something similiar after a few personal projects of mine have fell through, voiding me of some resume material for a switch in software environment for now. Failure is very important to build up knowledge and experience, but at some point I got lost in the details that you can't research, in the important bits that make software 'work' well and are architected nicely enough to be used professionally.

Helpful, actionable advice. The personality piece is incredibly important, knowledge and skills can be trained, but attitude and the habits (good and bad) we bring to any role are much harder to fix.
What hardware, and what kind of settings do you need to seek to have a working roaming network?

I've a Mikrotik router at home (very educational), and I've very often heard UniFi ap's can do it properly. Can I do it with Mikrotik aps? Will setting it up be hell?
> Russians are frustrated know-it-alls with strong NIH syndrom wanting to redo everything from scratch.

That's my stereotype for all engineers.
Does roaming devices between APs actually work? I reading through ubiquiti forums and it looks like they used to support it, but backed out of it.

My specific usecase is moving around the office while being on google hangouts on my phone.
A bit of inspiration can be gleaned from the work of Dr Stefik on Evidence-based language design [1][2].

It does - you just need a certain amount of karma (500?) to get it. That's why some answers are grayed out; get enough downvotes, and your writing will blend in more and more with the background.
New Orleans isn't the best example. Costs have gone back up somewhat post-Katrina but 1BR rents are still close to $1K/month depending on location. New Orleans isn't a particularly expensive city, especially outside a few premium uptown locations.
actually the drug dealer police scanner analogy is pretty appropriate even if its not 100% accurate.

Is it inherently illegal for a drug dealer to scan for police in the area and close shop if they believe officers are nearby?
Some quick search counts for the catalog:

25 matches for "U.S. and Foreign Release"

67 for "General Public Release"

175 for "Open Source"

212 for "U.S. Release Only"

225 for "U.S. Government Purpose Release"

So a good chunk of stuff is openly available, but there's a lot that could still be opened up.
Does the US lending both hands to fucking up the Middle East make anything more stable? What stability was achieved by Vietnam, or all that stuff in South America? Not disastrous enough for you? Would you swap with even just ONE of the millions of people affected by some of the more insane atrocities this knight in shining armor committed? Thought so.

Another fact that is generally completely omitted is that best, soldiers defend against other soldiers (and in practice, they kill a lot of civilians because war is tough), so in a way those people justifying war machineries in other countries are not the excuse, they are the counterparts. It's an axis of sociopaths and conformists against humans, and this rift goes through all nations, even some families. The root causes for these rationalizations matter, not so much the rationalizations, those always shift. A child kicking a dog and Abu Ghraib differ in scale but not principle, as does looking on to either. Those onlookers love to use "we", but there is no "we" here, speak strictly for yourself.

The system already does this to an extent; it runs at a much higher resolution with more GPU power when docked. But I doubt an HD dock with some sort of offloading could work without serious modifications to the hardware; the GPU bandwidth alone would complicate matters significantly.
If you want to deny someone freedoms for whatevery reason, the least you can do is pay for it properly.

With real jobs its meant jobs that arent temp jobs.
I loved your comedic quips. Nice job overall!
also, public speaking is not so much about learning skills (as you could do in a weekend seminar), but about practicing and receiving feedback. Toastmasters is great for that.
It really depends on the phone and the AP.

What? Why do you think he's white? And even if he was -- his post is full of great advice. Any job candidate (or person, in general) would benefit from implementing those ideas to the best of their ability.

It's not "feel good woowoo," it's fundamental human psychology, and I think it's absolutely relevant here.

edit: I should add that I don't actually recommend blindly taking his, or anyone's, advice. Educating oneself should come first. I would recommending reading "Influence," by Robert Cialdini, if you want to learn more about the type of stuff discussed in j45's post.
I long thought the killer app for conservation was going to be GIS. And now maybe drones.

It is wicked hard to convey the destruction, loss. Especially to policy makers.

---

Methinks the best thing all governments could do is operate with an open ledger. All receipts, contracts, expenditures, procurements, permits, everything publicly posted in real-time.

It's hard to govern not knowing what the hell is happening. Even policy makers are kept in the dark. And they definitely don't have the staff to keep up.

I've done numerous FOIAs (public records requests). It's onerous and almost completely ineffectual. And by the time you get the data you've asked for, the window of opportunity has passed.
I believe it is the responsibility of the client to correctly roam between similarly named APs. I vaguely recall reading into this when I read that my unifi AP didn't support roaming. I could be mistaken though!
Is contributing to GitHub projects the only way a new programmer can get a job?
I thought you could use aggressive approaches by letting the AP's just kick the device off the AP so it's forced to join a better one?
Do you pay taxes only on earnings over the 108K then? I was under that that's what the ceiling was the OP was referring to.
Then I'd rather have 8 more years of a Clinton/Obama "bad presidency", with improving economies, decreasing joblessness, improving environment... rather than the 8 years of George W Bush or whatever shitfest we're getting under Trump.

I hate wires. But the only thing worse than them is wireless technologies.
Did they confuse "Free BSD Kernel" and zlib? Jean-loup Gally and Mark Adler are the zlib authors, and don't really have anything to do with FreeBSD.
With iostream, yeah - but in general C++ templates give the compiler more opportunity to outperform similar generic C code that relies on void pointers/function pointers. See the classic qsort vs. std::sort archetypal example of this. Also, with printf in particular, modern C compilers will generally parse the format flags at compile time if possible.
Well, in honesty when I do work I get stuff my manager cares about done. My theory is I'm surviving on "success is binary", either do whats expected or not. Or did you mean something else?
Narita isn't anywhere near Tokyo (it's an hour away by express train). It's like complaining about the NY subway in Newark.

The Airport is the Train Station so you catch the airport shuttle to there!

Also, Uber is a just a taxi hailing app in Tokyo... so what are you trying to say? They are $4/min, which is an outrageous $300 to Tokyo...
Trump and some Republicans have argued for allowing selling policies across state lines but I think more knowledgable people have said it would not make a significant difference in health care costs and poses some race-to-the-bottom risks.

I think most insurance providers are multi-state entities so higher costs in one state can be balanced by lower costs in others. But there may be some limits; if the ACA requirement that insurers use 80% of revenue on health care costs is applied per-state, they may not be able balance out a really unhealthy state. But this isn't an issue due to America's geographic or population size or even the quantity of states, it's that America has much more political power at the state level.

Thanks, that link is very informative.
Yes? I'm confused what you're asking. I'd say generally avoid ass-kissing, looking desperate and acting over-eager...

Did what I said above seem to imply these things? That's not what I intended at all. Are you interested in what I meant?
An unfortunate side effect of being in the industry is that I constantly have a surplus of enterprise-grade hardware at home. It's been a while since I looked at consumer hardware. Apple's Airports were solid, but have been discontinued. I've used both of the OnHubs and both were performant / stable. I've heard generally good things about Google's new Wi-Fi pucks, and Netgear's nighthawk series.

5G is the better of the two bands - it gives you many more channels and there's generally less interference. That sounds like something particular to your environment.

If you have a Mac, I recommend installing Wi-Fi signal (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wifi-signal/id525912054?mt=1...) - it gives you much greater insight into what's happening on the air. I'd start by installing something like that, and monitoring for correlation with your drops - what else happens when your connection drops? Does the SNR drop? Does the AP change channels? etc.
I suppose the difference is that I don't expect my television to run on batteries, but I do expect it to work on wifi.
Yes, absolutely, most brokerage accounts let you request ATM card/debit card/checks to access your core position. Additionally, Both Fidelity and Schwab let you open a free checking account(1) as well with no balance limits and ATM reimbursement.

Second bank account is more important than second credit card, IMO. Being locked out of your cash is much worse than being locked out of your credit.

(1) technically they are brokerage accounts also, at least for Fidelity, but they hold your deposits in FDIC insured banks and are designed to be used for everyday spending, exactly the same as a checking account.
My wifi is fine between one wireless device and a wired device, but if I'm say, using my laptop to beam a video off my NAS onto my TV, it all breaks down.
But you know, in a review made by Digital Foundry, they found out Horizon: Zero Dawn (PS4) doesn't have physics applied to grass or a lot of environment objects when the character goes through them. Here, the grass has to realistically move to the passing of Link and also the wind. Also, the physics are handled by the CPU, which has a constant speed regardless of the mode the system is running at in order not to interrupt game logic like, you know, the grass, heh. I'm betting that's what's causing the drops, having to apply physics on the grass (and other objects on the environment).

In any case, yeah, hopefully they'll improve it a bit with future patches.﻿
Core Duo/3Gb RAM seems enough for Ubuntu. What kind of graphics does the laptop have?
And you don't think that other countries have consulates and embassies that are willing to help their citizens?
I think this is due to "saving face" aspects of their culture.

I oversaw a team of Indian-based Indians while working for a software company in Austin, TX.

My stereotypical experiences:

- Ask an Indian if he understands something, he'll always answer "Yes" even if he doesn't understand it.

- Indians will not admit fault or mistakes. They seem to take it as a personal attack when you critique their work, rather than take it a suggestion for improvement.
