Companies are looking for what you as a candidate can do for them.

Self-study or taking a class signals some level of "I tried to learn this thing." So that's a start.

Even better is "I built X", where X is obviously based on skill you learned. In which case you can omit the class because you have proof of learning, not just trying to learn.

Even better is "I provided business value V to my employer by building X." Because now you're showing how this skill is useful to someone else. So using skill at work is another thing to try.

Ideal is you write the above, but emphasize V (or choose between multiple things you can list) in a way that suggests you can help the needs of the particular company you're applying to.

So there's having the skill (which is good), but there's also how you present it to show it will provide value (also important).

There is a really interesting case study in the Collins Parser. Starting around 1999, Michael Collins published some really exciting results on parsing (interpreting the grammatical structure of nature language). However, people could not replicate them--a "clean room" implementation of Collins' models didn't work nearly as well as the paper claimed it should.

Dan Bickel identified a number of apparently trivial implementation decisions that, when taken together accounted for Collins' models improved performance. There's a nice tech report describing this process here: http://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1026...
> Mobile industrie are not the same than game for PC, they are really focused more on money than the game itself

That's a sweeping generalisation. Mobile games are not "focused more on money than the game itself". There are plenty of examples of PC games which are straight up cash cows, just as there are plenty of examples of mobile games which are deeply rewarding and fun to play. To make statements like that is insulting to both sides.
Your points are all invalidated by the mere fact that everyone already uses email for authentication. What do you think the "forgot my password" link does? The GP's flow just makes it more explicit.

As a coach here's my question about the standard standup format (what did you do yesterday, etc...)

If the reason we are all here is to get the work done why is it ok that it's a mystery what is done or not? Why is it not obvious? Why do we have to ask? Why not just keep your board or whatever up to date and talk about other things? Like surprises, blockers, questions, or concerns.
If their work is that independent then the fact they're all on the same team seems problematic.
It's not broken; to be fair, I would definitely call keepassxc better/more up-to-date but it hasn't been as battle-tested as keepassx (even though it's the same codebase).

They're both just as appropriate to use, which is why I recommend keepassx. I do use keepassxc myself however.

This is how our school teaches AP CS 1 and CS 2. They use to use Crouton but required developer mode. Now with Google adding containers to ChromeOS you can use Termux inside a container without developer mode required.

ChromeOS is the only commercial OS that has the exact same environment used in the cloud on a laptop.

In someways ChromeOS is now an OS of OSs. My 2nd oldest son studying CS as University uses ChromeOS, Android and desktop Linux all on the same machine at the same time. With containers this is done with basically zero additional overhead.

Google has something really special here and would expect it to become a strong developer platform over the next couple of years.

It is just ideal in that you just pull down whatever containers you need and they will run unchanged on ChromeOS as it has the same Linux kernel as the cloud.

I know very little about economics, but it seems very weird to me to compute the value of an oil company based on the current price of oil and the reserves it owns. Not all oil it owns is for sale right now at that price and it is very unlikely that the price for oil will stay the same until all reserves are depleted.

And then I guess mobile gamers don't feel so excited and invested in their $1 break time distraction that they would talk about it on chats, streams, forums, or with friends.

Eric Schmidt Calls H-1B Visa Limits 'Stupidest Policy' – Fortune.com
Because if it is the initial condition of the universe then there is one history and everything is predestined. This has a number of implications like :

- everything could be predicted
- criminals are not responsible for their behavior
- human life is not sacred
- our thoughts are not real

It's this last one that catches me; predestination means "I think therefore I'm not really me" we then need to abandon the whole of rationalism and retreat to the caves!

My point, which I think you validated, is that if you want to retrain people, you need to put serious effort into it. A graduate will have at least 1 full year focusing on the topic and the large part of the remaining time was spend on fundamentals and related topics.

I've been thinking I'd love to have a WARC archive of all my browsing. So many times sites I remember seeing have gone offline, and didn't get archived by the big services. Ideally this has to happen with browser cooperation, so it can save resources from complex dynamic pages, including responses to user action.

This must happen either in the browser or in a proxy like the linked warcprox, in order to catch everything. But the proxy solution is getting less practical every day with key pinning and HSTS.

Maybe a future firefox will have an option to export everything to WARC?
For those wondering what happens if you try view this page in a text-only browser, Elinks just shows a blank page with the text "Ey_Terminal :: Home" in the upper left corner.

It is great because:

2. Async, written as first thing when you come to work.

> It depends on how you define "data science".

I think the widely accepted definition is "Statistics, but on a Mac"
The thing is we have a bigger problem: Brexit. Despite the fatigue of it, we now need strong leadership to exit the EU. If the vote is split, that'll weaken our country in a much more substantial way than any internet monitoring.
Appreciate the OP is about whether the stand up is for the scrum master/project manager etc or for the team members. Hopefully it is both, and mostly the later.

Also see in the other threads (and discussion in general) that mistakes the standups as for reporting your status to managers. That may be required in some organisations or partially, but not in most.

But I would view a good stand up one that does NOT require each team member to in turn state the old: "what they did yesterday, what will do toady, any impediments".

Instead you hope project leadership trust their team members and instead focus on the tasks. In order of task priority a participant in that story can quicklyy broadcast if anything has changed with a task/story, no need for details of what happened yesterday, no need for whom did what etc. Then if any impediments for that story, escalations, anything else etc. And just quickly rattle through them to make sure focus is maintained on getting the tasks flowing through to delivered.

TL;DR focus on tasks not people reporting. I ranted about this some years ago... http://blog.flurdy.com/2013/04/i-dont-care-what-you-did-yest...
I couldn't agree more. I wish more sites would load without needing multiple seconds of JS execution and AJAX. One of my TODOs is to get full-page screenshots working as well.
I wouldn't rush to call right-wing nationalism "has arrived". The reason she will win a landslide is because she's the only credible-seeming candidate. As such, it's hard to equate her winning with an extreme shift in public attitudes. She would likely win without many of the stances we consider extreme, given the current political landscape.

While I won't vote for her, I have to concede that the alternatives do not instil any greater confidence despite being vastly more ethically aligned with my views.

i.e., she just happens to be a horrible person; she isn't winning because of it

This is an important distinction, as we are (in my opinion) still a far cry from the abyss of divisiveness currently entrenched in American politics, and the best way to keep out of that abyss is not to demonise a majority of the country for this coming election's outcome.

I am a British citizen. There will not be any significant public opposition to this, a few articles in The Guardian and a small mention on the news between Trump stories. I have only experienced apathy when I discuss mass surveillance with people in this country. "I have nothing to hide, why should I care?". There is a fundamental disconnect between real world privacy and online privacy to most people in this country. At this point it is too late anyway, May has gone full frontal assault on the internet and privacy advocates and security experts don't have a hope. I just want her to go full-on now and implement maximum surveillance, maximum snooping and maximum data retention and profiling. All of this can only blow up embarrassingly in her face. It is just a question of time. Sadly I have come to the conclusion this is the only way that such powers will ever be opposed by the public.
It's cumbersome on mobile, so making the bold keywords into links would be a good idea.

> Benefits: No NPM dependencies

While excessive dependencies is a problem and a liability, reinventing the wheel is even a bigger problem! NPM is there to solve a problem and when used correctly it brings HUGE benefits in many ways. Listing this as a benefit is clearly not understanding what NPM is for and part of the classical Not Invented Here.
I don't think the goal should necessarily be to get a job that has "data science" in the title. There are plenty of projects where data science could help but not many devs know about the available tools so if you know something about data science you have an edge over other devs.

For example in my company there would be plenty of opportunities for applying machine learning or computer vision. Nobody knows enough to know how to approach these problem so nothing happens. We could use somebody who knows how to move forward.

I like your idea of:

"Establish a culture of taking an office break around 4-5pm then resume at 8pm for a couple hours"

as it is similar to what someone does at my work and it really helps them out.

We have one person that lives far away (45m to 1hr) and she leaves early, around 3:30pm so she can be at home waiting for the kids when the bus drops them off. Then she puts in another hour of work sometime that evening.
More choice always means more responsibility. You could argue against democracy with the same idea - what happens if the voters choose someone not worthy? A lunatic or someone downright malicious?
Ideally we too would have a Medicare for all default with private supplemental insurance if you opt into it.

Entrenched interests like existing private insurers, medical care providers and folks who never experienced single payer (and are convinced others are sucking off their teet) are doing everything in their power to prevent that.
It's not scary, just look at the opposition. Corbyn is making up numbers to try and get a win with his completely false 'take from the rich, give to the poor' strategy, and then there's the Lib Dems who had their shot at power, and immediately went back on their promises and raised student loans through the roof.

It's not a straw man at all. Uber literally denied services based on who issued customers' credit cards (allegedly). That they recognized the bank as a police credit union instead of recognizing the Star of David as a Jewish symbol doesn't meaningfully change the scenario.

PCI is not concerned about protecting the user. It's about protecting credit card companies. Visa does not care that Uber uses credit card information for nefarious business purposes. They care that Uber doesn't leak the credit card information they possess.
Good counterpoint, I don't have an answer for you, you'd need somebody who supports curtailing civil liberties in order to combat terrorism to give an answer to that.

Not a big difference. A lot of those people will forget most of the stuff they "learned" in a few months time.
In my old job we used Geekbot [0], a Slack bot for async standup meetings. It's great for geographically distributed teams.

I found it made it much easier to get an idea of what people were up to, as well as providing an opening for occasional tips and suggestions. Posts typically included a mix of what you achieved, what you hope to achieve, and any blockers. Any updates or big breakthroughs were usually shared as well.

I think it's best to be flexible about how frequently status updates are shared, leaving it up to the developer's discretion.
