rfz is quite likely right.

compound lifts (and even more so the olympic lifts) are _quite_ complicated. chronic compensations and movement issues get ignored in everyday life because they don't cause "problems", but they can manifest into injury when lifting. adding strength to dysfunction is a problem.

i've also never heard a fellow lifter at the gym say "my form was perfect and i still got injured", it is _always_ "yea i messed up my from a little and it bit me". despite listening to dozens of hours of coaches and physical therapists talk about this stuff none of them have ever said "some people do it right and just get injured". this paragraph is contextual in the sense that we're talking about people lifting less than 500 pounds. the guys on TV deadlifting 900pounds (400 kilos) are doing something different to their body than the guy at the corner gym lifting 225 pounds.

the problem has a lot of facets. most people don't know what their body should feel like. unless they record themselves many people have only a vague idea of what they are doing, and certainly not a good idea of what they might be doing wrong. toss in the fact that you can build enough strength to hurt yourself fairly badly in a couple of months a lot of doctors (general physicians) who don't know what they are talking about will say things like "that's bad for you" because they're helping you avoid injury they best way they know how, which is not to do it.
I was under the impression that import tax would be used to balance the cost.

A 100% import tax on iPhone imports would force Apple to move production to the USA.

I don't imagine he has the political clout to make it happen.
> The US response was to carpet bomb Japanese cities full of civilians, carpet bomb foreign cities held by Japan holding civilians and citizens of foreign nations, etc... then to top it off, they felt fully justified to drop two nuclear bombs on two cities full of civilians in Japan to teach East-Asia a lesson.

Looks like your perception of history is... a little bit skewed.
Never heard of anything like that, interesting. Sounds like some sort of synesthesia.

Homes are such a critical resource. While other resources are passed down the stream from the rich to the poor — see for example food leftovers (waste) — this is not the case for homes. They remain where they are and don't easily change ownership.
Have you looked at London building regulations?
Oh I completely agree - my point was that may have just been lucky in this case rather than drawn any great conclusion from doing his own research - thus the lack of any follow-on investments that worked.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted unless it's because you hit a nerve.

No one can actually understand or predict the economy. The high-speed traders, battling algorithms like pokemon, are already a non-linear system far beyond control. If you know enough about "systems theory" et. al. it's totally scary, like bug-out-and-go-surfing scary. An intelligent actor, whether human or AI, will eventually compute its own inadequacy and endure a kind of sea change. (Did you ever see the old movie "Wargames"? It has a wonderful illustration of the same process in the context of global thermonuclear war.)

If we were as rational as we like to think asteroid defense would be a bigger thing than it is.
> If an object has getters and setters for all its members, then it isn't really an object.

Minor quibble. Take for example a coordinate class, that you can get/set cartesian, and get/set polar. It's a nice example of an object with no private state, but transparently hides the coordinate system transformations.

In general, i agree with you. The vast majority are just (possibly immutable) structs.
I don't know how popular they are now, but about 13 years ago I was vacationing in Anchorage, AK and there were many "coffee shacks." Simple sheds with at most two people working, that sold fairly good coffee/espresso and a few pastries through a window. Unless one was near a park there was no where to sit, so you got your coffee and left.

A few years later I noticed that there were some franchises springing up with the same model, but the entry prices were insane. Might as well start a McDonald's!

Anyway, my point is that perhaps the expectations in the US are regional and in some locations, the model you're describing might work.
Yes, it should be direct contact. Even short range wireless would make me nervous without guarantees that it was just one way monitoring. I wouldn't blame network administrators for the safety of a device that should have never been on it in the first place.
If some people stopped renting in your town to sell their house, wouldn't some renter be left out as well? Isn't that just an indication that there aren't enough houses to go around?

Scalyr | Backend, Agent, Customer Success Engineers | San Mateo, CA | ONSITE

I've built half a dozen startups, including Writely (aka Google Docs), and I can honestly say that Scalyr is my favorite so far. We're building an amazing team, users rave about our product, and things are taking off – we're closing seven-figure contracts and revenue grew 5x last year. And we're doing it on a sane, 40-hour, daily-team-hike, Fridays-at-home schedule. We're pre-series-A, but in many ways playing like a series B company, so this is a chance to get the best of both worlds -- early-stage equity and impact, with later-stage compensation and stability; plus a very strong team for peering or mentorship.

Backend Engineer: We've built a NoSQL data engine from scratch that searches text at 750 GB/second. How'd you like to help us scale and optimize to multiple TB/second?

Agent Engineer: you'll own our lean, mean data collection agent. If you enjoy constantly getting to play with new tools, come help us connect to... everything. You'll get to play with packages from Apache to Zookeeper, APIs from AWS to, er, Azure, while tackling challenges such as monitoring 100,000+ simultaneous log files using minimal CPU.

Customer Success Engineer: our customers are engineers. We're looking for someone with lightweight ops experience and good communication skills to help them get the most out of Scalyr. A great opportunity to join the team and work your way up the engineering ladder.

> For a bunch of reasons cities will continue to grow, and bigger cities will grow faster.

In the Eastern-European country from where I'm from the cities' population has actually decreased after 1990, the demographic crisis is a real thing (the country's population as a whole has decreased by 17-20% after 1990). I see this phenomenon extending to the rest of Europe in the next 20-30 years.
I don't like mathematical notation's ambiguity and opaqueness much either, but it is fairly important for the notation to be terse. It's more important than in software because so many proofs are about this being equivalent to that, and symbols give you a lot of room to work with, which you would not have with words. And I mean, the vocabulary already exists, papers just need to explain which symbol represents what. If a paper tells me that epsilon is the learning rate for some model, I know what that means and I can just keep it in mind when I read the math. I don't think I'd understand better if they write out "learning rate" over and over again.

A remark worth making is that not every manufacturing job can be done by someone who can write down their name and recite the alphabet. That's just entry-level assembly work, or some very specific, repetitive task.

Certainly not highly skilled traditional manufacturing jobs, like machining and the like.

Making almost everything requires skill; certainly making it well. Assembling certain pieces may be something easy that anyone can be trained to do, but not necessarily making those pieces.

One reason manufacturing won't come back to a given area is that the people who know how to do that are retired, or dead, and their grandkids don't know how to do that sort of work.

It's not just about money.

I don't think labor in China is as cheap as it used to be. Choosing as an example an entry-level assembling job that requires no skill other than reciting the alphabet is rather a cherry-picked example. That's not going to pay well anywhere.

Skilled people aren't going to work for peanuts just because they are located in China. Or if they are, that won't last for long.

- Product Manager

- Mid-Market Account Executive

- Enterprise Account Executive

- UX Designer

OnboardIQ is a hiring automation platform for companies employing lots of hourly workers — think delivery companies, retail, call centers, and service marketplaces. We went through Y Combinator’s batch last summer (S15), raised a $3.3m seed round, and we’ve grown tremendously in the past year.
On the surface, we're a b2b software tool.

Underneath the hood, we've collected approx. million applicants by serving as the backend that processes every single one of our customer's hourly-workforce applicants, and we've started to build algorithms that can predict hire rates and retention of applicants in a service economy that is characterized by unpredictable labor.

Our stack is in Ruby on Rails + React.

Slightly different but yeah. The falcon has a single pre-orbit stage. The heavy has two pre-orbit stages. So it'll end up being three falcon engines stitched together with decouplers. Part of the way to orbit, the outside two decouple and return the to launch pad. Some time after that, the center engine decouples and lands on a barge. None of those will be going at orbit velocity though.

REMOTE (or East Bay, CA) - LambdaSchool | https://lambdaschool.com | We're hiring instructors to teach software engineering and bio-informatics

We're trying to rewrite the rules of higher education, and will soon be (spoiler alert) rolling out a model of education that is comparable to a CS degree but is all online, 6 months, and for free up-front.

Our CS curriculum focuses on full-stack JavaScript, React, Redux, etc., and is heavy on data structures, algorithms, and CS fundamentals that most self-taught programmers miss.

Our bio-informatics program is very much a work in progress.

We're hiring both FULL-TIME and PART-TIME instructors. You will be well-compensated.

We're backed by some of the most legit investors in the Valley, and are still largely under the radar (can't talk about it too much publicly yet).

Sure, but tail risk funds are a specific "thing" - you're generally doing exactly what you described - selling out of the money puts on a constant basis in the event of a tail event, knowing you are going to lose that money 99% of the time. Betting on gold is certainly a bet like insurance, but it's not a tail risk. There's even an ETF for this now: TAIL
The main reason for owning an investment property these days is to flip it in a few years for 50%+ more than you paid for it.

Dealing with renters in that equation dosent make any sense, because the returns will be tiny, even with sky high rents like $3000 a month on say an $800k property appreciating 20% every year (a real situation in many cities). The presence of renters will ensure you cant sell it when you want to, and instead have to deal with them, an insane hassle for a foreign investor.

Compounding this is the fact that much of this property investment is being driven by wealthy (and to a huge degree corrupt) chinese looking to funnel money out of china, before the CCP can take it from them. Real estate is one of the few foreign investments allowed by the CCP. Tie this in further to the investor class visas many countries have, where you get the equivilent of a green card if you invest X millions of dollars. In these circumstances people dont care much about returns, or even taking somewhat of a haircut on their investments, because its better to have some + a get out of jail free card as a resident of another nation, than be stuck in china in jail, with no assets at all.

Your continued incredulity that these properties arnt being rented out dosent change the reality of the situation, a massive percentage of them are not, and are built specificly to NEVER be rented.

I hope this doesn't sound too snarky, but:
