It isn't just realtors that Zillow hurts. Their zestimate is nothing but the roughest of guidelines. It is little better than a general market trend in a geographical area. I am not a realtor, but a homeowner who learned, from experience (buying and re-financing my own home) that Zillow is useless.

I can understand if it causes homeowners to set unrealistic expectations regarding the value of their property, because, lets face it, there are a lot of "unsophisticated" home owners / buyers out there. Some of these homeowners / buyers make life decisions based upon bad information. Yes, they should know better, but many don't.

A home buyer / owner is looking for trusted authority for their property value. The only legitimate authority to make that determination is an appraiser. Zillow puts themselves forward as a trusted authority, which they definitely are not. The unsophisticated buyer / owner sees them as a way to avoid paying for an independent appraisal. But mistake.
There is nothing wrong with that, but why should trying out a bunch of stuff make someone more eligible for a scholarship?
That's not how unions work in the US.
I share his pet peev. Economics has studied this extensively and the evidence suggests otherwise. And it is more complicated than you suggest.

What is your model?

During the 90s low interest rates were not associated with low growth. Your model doesn't explain that.

You haven't established a causation here at all. How does it work? Why? What? It also completely ignores nominal vs. real interest rates.
This is probably the only real hope. Problem is you cannot subpoena Google without first filing a lawsuit. So, you'd need to come up with a legal basis to file a lawsuit in which this document would be relevant. And then you'd have to serve a subpoena on Google.

You could potential have a lawyer serve a document preservation request on Google before a lawsuit is filed. But I'm not optimistic they'd listen to it.
Not many in India would see things the way you do. Why lose interest if you can get it, particularly if you don't have more interest coming in from mutual funds or someplace else? If anything, the competition is on to see who'll pay more interest. One payments bank announced 7%: http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/wealth/personal-finance-...
I don't suppose I'd thought about it that way myself. Not really a problem I have - I tend to regard the hipster's self-enforced ironic detachment as its own punishment, and feel myself under no obligation to ameliorate the consequences thereof - but it might make for some interesting experiments at the bar.
It's a problem with Linux not permitting inspection of interfaces through a namespace. If I have a chroot I can look in from outside easily. Apparently not so with container interfaces.
Certainly, that's true of most people who support green policies of various sorts.

But I'm not at all sure it's true of the majority of environmentalist organisations and parties.

I think there is as much of a disconnect between green voters and the desires of green politicians and lobbyists, as there is between the interests of Trump voters and Trump's interests.

It's fairly common to hear green orgs denouncing industrialisation, economic growth, free trade, etc. In New Zealand, the Green Party was in part founded by literal Communists, left adrift and unfunded after the fall of the USSR.

To summarise, I think that most people who think they are supporting what you said - a high standard of living in a sustainable manner - are actually supporting anti-capitalists.
Why would that be "a bit unfair"? It sounds like the TensorFlow team just hasn't been able to make as many or as good of optimizations as the CNTK team. If they could have, but chose not to do the same things, what tradeoff is there to be able to say it's "a bit unfair"?
This is extremely cool. I always find these kinds of breakdowns interesting, because they always find something absolutely unique to the device.

Does anyone know, for this kind of "unique card device" use case, do companies usually have an in-house team in charge of developing it, or do they hire a third party, or does a third party approach them with the offer of a device like this?

If a third party, is it a small shop, or some established company? How is the company known and how does it build that relationship with Nintendo?

Amazing that during the whole presentation the word "watt" was never mentioned to describe the power delivered and at what range.
I think my point is that they are given the choice, knowing that it is a choice they do not have the luxury to pass up. Just a frustrating situation that these employees will then continue to work outside of their normal work hours. I'm sure many will be grateful for the extra money, I'm sure many pick up shifts or maybe drive for a ride hailing service on the side. That is time they're not building a relationship with their kids, helping them succeed in school, etc. That sucks. It's a shitty situation.
This is everything I wanted to know.

Quick Googling to fact check this does seem to illustrate a bias by multiple world governments to marginalize those suffering from this, without any real scientific basis to do so.
Or just replace them with robots? That is what's happening across various industries today. Nurses will be replaced soon too (in the next 10 years). No union can stop that.

Not everyone is entitled to a job. If you complain, then get out. Automation will help enforce this.

Short version: advertising is BS
An illustrative starting point is the Golden Rice fiasco:

DNSFilter | Golang/Ruby on Rails Engineer | Myrtle Beach, SC, USA | REMOTE https://dnsfilter.com

100% Remote opportunity - Within 6 hours of EST. Full-Time Employee (after a few weeks of contracting)

We are a DNS company. DNSFilter provides recursive DNS services with content filtering and threat protection to the Managed Service Provider and Small Medium Business market segments.

We have a technically strong founding team, but are looking to step up our golang strength by bringing on a strong golang developer to refactor our code, add tests, and work through our queue of github issues.

The primary code-base, in golang, handles incoming DNS requests, and interacts with our ruby on rails API, redis, and kafka. The code base stresses concurrency, and we run it on dozens of anycast nodes around the globe, distributed via docker containers.

We have a Ruby on Rails developer founder, but would like our golang developer to be familiar enough with RoR to make quick changes to the API. We're also looking to branch off some RoR functions into a separate golang project, which would require reading and understanding the RoR code to reimplement as a golang API.

We also have a few other projects written in golang which could use some testing love, and resolution of pending issues and feature-additions. Those projects are a Kafka Consumer (to influxdb and TimeScaleDB (Postgresql)) and a HTTP/HTTPS proxy.

Another one of our founders is experienced in DevOps, and coded most of our golang app, and handles our infrastructure, docker containers, etc. The existing team has very strong DNS knowledge, and it would be advantageous if our golang developer understood DNS (think dig, different Resource Record types) and some networking concepts (TCP, UDP, Ports).
We heavily leverage the github.com/miekg/dns library, and have plans to implement DNSCrypt, DNSSEC, eDNS0 client subnets, and other standards into our code-base.

Looking for 2+ years of golang experience.

Please contact us: jobs [at] dnsfilter.com if you’re interested.
Jesus, that's such a great answer. Do you have an academic page people can look at for more of your writings or readings? Thanks so much!

After watching this talk show with Alex Epstein I've realized the word 'green' is largely bs.

Green doesn't automatically mean better, and dirty does not mean coal and fossil fuels. It is how the technology is used. He argues alternative energy leads to deforestation, destruction of habitats, and deaths from vegetable oil which otherwise could be used to prevent some starvation.If you accept these things then alternative energy becomes extremely selfish by putting the burden out of your cities.

It's a good interview I hope you guys check it out.
In reality, I doubt even the US DoD has that level of resources available, so I like to think of the assumption as an analogue to the oracle model in cryptography.

Actually I would look East, to China and Russia, for the latest technologies in IC reverse-engineering. I don't think nation-state levels of resources are necessary even to RE something like an Intel CPU. To actually understand how it all works is a different matter, but if you're talking about just deriving a transistor-level or gate-level schematic, or turning that into HDL, from my understanding it's actually quite affordable now. You can already recover code from most microcontrollers with <$10K USD (and I personally know others who have used those services before); I'd estimate getting a schematic to cost maybe 10x that.

I feel like the US needs another "New Deal" type of program. I understand the dangers of inflation when money is printed indiscriminately with no value produced to back it. What I still fail to grasp is whether there are such dangers when the money is used to pay the citizenry for creating public infrastructure, public health care, teacher salaries, basic science research, et cetera. Such investments in the country's future seem essential and tragically low for this economy. Or is the only root cause of objections to this type of government spending moral, not economic?
I'm curious as to the long term failure rate of this type of implant. Teeth shift and there will be bone loss around it to some extent. It may be a better option but I don't think it is as perfect as the marketing makes it seem.

I guess it's just a question of how you label various groups? I wouldn't consider fringe Green Parties or similar organizations to be representative of environmentalism. If I should be using another term, I wouldn't object too much.
If you don't have faith in states taking initiative then as a whole you can't have the USA change. That's just how our culture, and our governance works.

States NEED to take responsibility. If we are to change as a nation we need to stop looking at the globe and do a bit of introspection so that we can change internally. Otherwise if states are left out of the equation then the problem of climate change can never be solved.

While the federal government can possibly do that, and it is a huge possibility, trying to get the states to change at the grassroots is of far greater impact, and efficiency, as that is the Number 1 problem that USA faces. Not a lack of federal imposition, but a lack of grassroots understanding in America. And the one thing Americans hate perhaps the most is being told what to do by men in suits.

How would higher interest rates change things? They're higher for everyone across the board. I suggest looking up nominal vs. real interest rates.
> As an employee, the union is an organization you belong to which works to further your interests

If that were actually true, it would be nice. But I doubt it's true for very many unions. Certainly my past experience in the auto industry indicated that it was not the case for the UAW, which is the union involved in this particular case.

> If one side shouldn't band together, why should the other side do so?

My personal belief is that unions should take this to its logical conclusion. If they really believe they can manage working conditions better than the employers, they should back that claim up by becoming full-fledged for-profit corporations, employing the workers they represent and negotiating contracts with the companies that want the services of those workers. If union claims are true, this arrangement should be a win-win: employees now work directly for the organization that represents them, and companies that want those services get them cheaper because the union can provide them more efficiently since they now employ the workers directly instead of being an inefficient middleman.

If this were actually done and worked, it would be great. But I won't hold my breath waiting for it.
The obvious counter is the one already deployed, if only implicitly, in response to your comment - that this analysis is selfish, and says nothing about whether gay marriage is socially valuable, but only whether it's valuable to you.

Good observations. However, user experience matters more in growing the company (it helps user growth and retention), rather than user numbers and short-term stock price
I think we can assume that if the potential gain is large enough, the US or other high tech economies (China/Japan/Korea/Russia/Singapore/France/Italy/etc) are definitely capable and willing to expend significant sums.

For example, the fragments of recent NorK missiles. If they had any computer or radar fragments left, they would be analysed, even if it cost $100M.

Fixing heath care would certainly work, but that seems nearly unachievable with the current political system (recall that even ACA that is so vilified was largely based on Republican plans in the first place). Though I suppose civil rights and voting rights also seemed nearly unachievable at first...

So is there really nothing between the two extremes of "fix everything" and "donate what you can when you hear from someone in need"?
Tell me this is true! Because it does make sense. I want this to be true :).

With nodemon and live-reload, why is this an issue? I've been able to do TypeScript apps in Electron for months. Both adding TypeScript and Electron to my build process were afternoon projects.

I'd like to pose a follow up question; as your role at the company has progressed, do you feel your day to day (collective you, the [a]'s) is less development oriented and more social management of the different issues that arise when a community gets that large?

unfunded (sp) liabilities.

And be careful where you wave your wand. Illinois pensions are very underfunded while California pensions are not even close to as bad, we just have a much larger denominator.

Also, the rate of funding in California is set by the employer (the city / county, etc) and not the state, the union, or the unionized employee. The pension organizations (CalPERS and CalSTERS) have unreasonable rates of return projected in the system (7.5% annual last I heard) and the employers, not the state, are on the hook if those pensions are underfunded due to that high rate of anticipated compounded interest.

Stockton went bankrupt soon after the 1999 bubble burst because there was no possible way they could make that level of anticipated returns in 2000-2001 (in addition to other bad investments the city made).

> I don't like the idea of public unions because they can essentially bleed taxpayers dry.
Private sector unions can bleed companies dry just the same. GM had negotiated itself into a corner pre-2008 and was less than 60 days from bankruptcy if not for US Government intervention (which helped them renegotiate their labor contracts). You can argue that a city in bankruptcy can't shed its pension liabilities the same way a company in bankruptcy can, but it's heavily dependent on the state law and the contracts.

The problem isn't that "they can essentially bleed taxpayers dry". They problems are that government jobs are largely undesirable for high-performing employees (with a few notable exceptions) and that government union jobs in the states you named mandate union dues by law. The latter was challenged at the SCOTUS during the Scalia absence[1].

Statements such as those aren't sufficient justification for shredding freedoms that have existed for hundreds of years.

It's also worth noting that the seized cash usually benefits the organization seizing it, creating a perverse incentive in the process.
