Why did that deserve a downvote? The difference between lower class men and women in that study was small,and I doubt that difference would meet a p=.05 confidence threshold. When it was said that lower class men are 4 times less likely than lower class women to be invited to interview this was an overstatement of the confidence we can extrapolate these results to the population. But hey,if that wasn't clearly inferred by my comment, so be it.
Most men don't deadlift much, but it isn't considered abnormal that I do so on a regular basis.

Most men don't sleep with other men, but that is again not considered abnormal or socialhttp unacceptable.
I seriously hope this is a joke.

What you're really saying is that it's rational to be selfish and short-termist. In the long run, everyone benefits if women have the same employment opportunities as men. Women benefit, because duh, men benefit because their female relatives don't depend on them, employers benefit because they have a wider pool of talent to choose from, society benefits because unemployment falls and higher-quality employment rises, and so on, so forth.

The "rationality" you are talking about is false rationality. It's rationalisation- an excuse that people tell themselves to justify their inability to give up on the prejudice they've been taught.
I used to format my whole disk as case-insensitive but enough poorly written apps broke (ok, mostly Steam) that I now just have a case sensitive partition for my source code and /usr/local.
Just wanted to say I agree with you, and that's why I think this is such a well done and fascinating study. Privilege does clearly exist in this study, but not necessarily in the patterns that are assumed.
U6 unemployment numbers and inflation-adjusted household incomes don't tell the same story, and the anecdote about Californian farms hardly seems like much to base an argument on. But you've got superpowers and are uniquely capable of separating facts from opinion so why bother arguing with the plebes?
> feeling they need to prove themselves

To be fair, if you've only had the one boss, 100% of your bosses feel the way your current boss does. There literally aren't any other examples in your work history that you can use to prove (to yourself or to others) that your boss is unreasonable or incompetent.

I also think undergraduate programs could do a better job preparing students for this sort of problem. You don't learn except through experience or maybe good mentoring that chronic crunch-time-to-meet-deadlines is a management failure, not a sign of developer incompetence.

But, yeah, I agree that bosses exploit young employees.

I don't think law is an especially good field right now. But fields having jobs with extremely different levels of compensation is normal. I was looking at doctors pay, and top specialities earn an average of over 400k/yr why the lowest paying onse earn closer to 200k/yr. In cs there are some internships that offer close to 100k/yr for 10-12 weeks. That's close to the average salary for fulltime developers in the US. https://stackoverflow.com/insights/survey/2017

I'd watch Oh Dearism II first [1] as it's only 5 minutes long. Then read Sarkov's "Without Sky"[2]. These two pieces of information are the best way to ground yourself against both "news" and apathy.

2014 - "Things are increasingly chaotic, along with the reporting of the events in the culture of 24-7 rolling news, sound-byte feeds and the Internet. The result, as we see, is not a coherent public understanding of these complex events, but more a profound mass-confusion, with discourse destroyed"

As a California resident who has gone through this, you don't contact the NLRB, you contact the Department of Labor Standards Enforcement first, who in turn takes the case to the NLRB if you can not reach a settlement agreement with the company that discriminated against you.

That's why it's so hard to win a case like this in CA, nobody knows the proper steps to take.
Problem is, as author stated there is no such solution right now. It's all about trade offs and in any case you got to sacrifice something.

I don't think electron is the problem, I just think there are some quirks with it that were not yet ironed out.
Hi

On the memory side, I actually don't know why the site is so large compared to its relatively small amount of content. Do you believe that it's large because of the images that you think are unnecessary or because of some technical defect?
I think this is really important to acknowledge. Intersectionality (i.e. subtlety and hollistic thinking) is actually a great way to think about inequity. But a lot of people who are interested in intersectionality are blind to many struggles specific to poor white males (I say this as a relatively privileged person Far removed from that demographic). Poor white males might skew more sexist and racist, but that is largely in response to upbringing, poor education, and poor economic opportunities. It is a big blind spot in many otherwise very liberal people's thinking to exclude poor white males, and that exclusion breeds resentment from a potential ally in addressing problems of inequity (and it contributes to a vicious cycle of racism/sexism leading to exclusion leading to more racism/sexism).

Not saying this is an easy fix, but many other liberal people I know seem shockingly uninterested in even treating this as a problem.
People pay for meat not from stores because slaughter is a difficult, physically demanding, messy and potentially psychologically distressing job. Not just because "butchers are good at it". All I'm refuting is the statement you made about "people doing it without problems".

Slaughter is outsourced for the same reason people pay nurses to change their sick, elderly parents diapers, it's not a pleasant task. Efficiency might be one reason, but there is more too it.

If you do your research, you will find that in a lot of cultures, taking an animals life was not considered a trivial thing, it had to be done properly, by skilled hunters or butchers, with respect and in some cases, a prayer would have to accompany the task. Take Halal for example.

I've also done quite a bit of travelling and my family also have an agricultural background, so I'm not totally ignorant to the processes and attitudes discussed.

Sailing is a very stereotypical rich man's sport, and track & field is perfect for the poor (low equipment and facilities costs). So it's no surprise the research used these. But they are saddled with a confounding factor: participant age.

The person reviewing your resume will likely be over 30 years old, maybe over 40. And they probably have more money than you. This makes it more likely that they participate in sailing or golf and less likely that they do track & field.

You may benefit from sharing an interest with your hiring manager or recruiter, and maybe it just happens they like things enjoyed by adults with money. Rather than judging you because you like cheap stuff.

A rich man's sport that doesn't favor older folks so much is crew (rowing). That would have been a better choice than sailing IMO.

As an older programmer, here's one drawback to hiring me: I'm unlikely to live in the office, and I'm unlikely to sleep under my desk. I'll put in extra hours, when actually necessary, but if I'm perfectly honest I just don't have enough energy to brain 16 hours a day anymore.

On the other hand, I think that I brain pretty effectively during the eight hours a day I give an employer. I don't write a lot of lines of code anymore, but I don't discard much code either. I'm good at case analysis, and if management encourages handling errors... well, I know how to do case analysis.

I like working with younger programmers. I can teach the brilliant guys to be disciplined, and that's what matters, and about all that matters. If they aren't brilliant, who cares. But if they are... they need to be taught a few things.

Still- I'm afraid I can't pretend to be young anymore ;).
The good thing about tech is that professional interview is more important than the HR interview. No matter how bad a tech interview can be - non technical professions have it worse

why do CV's even have an 'extracurricular activities'/'Personal interests' section? (asking because i never had one in my CV) Is this exclusive to first job applicants? another question: is having no awards better than having 'low class awards' ?

I think the parent is right though. Side topic but having seen how PR pieces are crafted, this feels like something that Snowflake put together and then passed on to datanami with a "we have a blog post we'd like you to publish" type mail. Claim is somewhat unsubstantiated but everything about it reeks of it trying to drive the person to discover of Snowflake at the start, and to think of it again at the end.

A quick search of hadoop against the snowflake domain and the term hadoop against the term snowflake, I keep finding that Snowflake has a definite Target in mind which is to convert hadoop users or people evaluating hadoop to choose them instead. They even have a webinar specifically for that segment of people.

Even further searching of Alex Woodie and mentions of snowflake show multiple articles with the CEO across multiple domains including datanami and Enterprise tech.

All that is circumstantial but I'm exercising a healthy bit of skepticism that this piece is pure research done by Alex Woodie. A little more objectively,

If I examine the "points" of the article, what I can see is:

Bob muglia has never met a happy hadoop customer. Mention couple of things that might replace hadoop in the future.

Bob muglia has only seen a few customers who've tamed hadoop.

Some discussions with and about Facebook's experience with hadoop painting hadoop as hard work from the outset.

More discussions with other tech folk (Kafka and data torrent). One is an alternative of sorts, and the other again discusses pain of hadoop.

And then back to Bob Muglia and who his target customers are for Snowflake - "hadoop refugees" - and his belief that we are in the valley of despair regarding hadoop.

Which brings us to the final mental point of the article. Ditch hadoop sooner rather than later, and here are the alternatives where the main one pushed from start to end is Snowflake.

I apologise if this was too far off the topic. I think the discussion of hadoop's validity or how it's being used is valid. I do also believe it's healthy to call out suspect stuff like this because the core of the article itself provides little to no critical value.
One of the reasons I like vim is that I can find vim or vi almost anywhere I need to work, but I try not to configure it too much (and lose out on what people say is one of the greatest advantages) BECAUSE I work on so many servers... is there a solution other than "carry your config and plugins everywhere?"

Surely you must know that you're blowing down a straw man here.

Your statements all presume, for no reason, that these people are gambling, and that if they lose their gamble they will have "no reasonable future."

The article is about law students. There is absolutely nothing unreasonable for shooting for the top 1%, because if they don't make it they'll just end up with a lawyer at a non-top-1% law firm. Their pay will be fine. (If they're at the bottom of their class or whatever, that's a separate issue.)

In the case of actors, yeah; everyone knows being an actor is a bad economic choice. Presumably those people have a definition of "reasonable future" that accommodates trying for their dream, and then falling back on something else if they fail.

In any case, discrimination is bad, even when it comes to moonshots. Surely it's productive to analyze hiring trends and discuss whether or not discrimination is, in fact, taking place.

As another security expert, I see tremendous security opportunities presented by bitcode. Apple can start providing high-fidelity feedback to application developers about security risks in their applications through both XCode and the app submission process, and may be able to remediate exploited issues on-the-fly by transforming bitcode.
It may not be comfortable, but it certainly does trap the poor in poverty especially when combined with ghetto public housing and other misguided efforts.

> I have friends that explicitly told me they would have liked to stay home more, but weren't able to because they feared what would happen at work.

For anyone in a competitive work environment who wants to get ahead, though, it's not surprising that someone would feel pressure to take less time off even if they had a very supportive employer. It seems kind of obvious to me that I would feel less "behind" in work if I took 4 weeks off instead of 8.
Yes. In my recent Electrical Engineering interview, I didn't literally whiteboard but we did go over some simple problems that a person at my point in college should know.
I wish Apple would drop this entirely. The biggest thing it does is force you as a developer to use their tools. The actual benefits are very limited.

It would be more interesting if they encouraged source uploads, they built an entire CI/CD system for testing and releasing your code. Then they could recompile for anyone opting to use that.

No, her research did a more in depth exploration of the difference between the higher class groups.

It's legitimate to ask why that difference was studied while the other one wasn't, but it's not legitimate to ask for speculation about the lower class difference when it wasn't specifically studied.

That's what I noticed. I really don't expect state schools to undergrad student workers much. So I wouldn't really worry about it too much. If you can find another job that pays more elsewhere, take it. But I'm really not surprised at all with your pay.
You do need to reapply from a blank slate to each customer. Once I'm redirected to a Taleo site for applying, I immediately exit the job application and look elsewhere.
To be clear I was working under the (unjustified, hypothetical) assumption that while tradition gives us the separate branches, a different organization would be more effective in the long run.

Obviously moral is very important, I don't mean to dispute that. I was saying I don't care for the branches' cultural continuity prima faciae. A temporary drop in moral is bad, but if the new organization really is better the drop should only be temporary and moral should recover long term.

The second part of my argument is a mere whip that if we got ourselves into a "big moral/self-evidentally important war", that would bost moral more than the reorg would hurt it.
It's not a throwaway account. Just don't post much so never bothered to register an account.
Yeah, "honey, this year don't count me in as I am going to be out all nights having drink with strangers so that i can build my network"... it reminds me of that day I dared to call a recruiter because his phone was listed on the job posting, he was like "wtf dude, why are you calling me?"

How much could you actually transform with a high degree of certainty that you don't break the application?

I just don't buy that they is much gain here, for anything. Possibly you'd be able to swap out assembly instructions for new/better ones that the processor provides, but do you really want Apple to be giving your customers transformed application binaries which you haven't tested?

The Deep PCA paper shows no such thing. They've cherry-picked bad CNN baselines.
