In terms of total cost, cities are much, much cheaper than either rural or urban sprawl development. The costs look high up front when you consider a 50 story condo building will cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but then you recognize it will house several thousand people and contain a majority of the infrastructure for their lives internally and suddenly the per-person costs are paltry compared to maintaining an entire town for the same number of people with roads, utilities, sanitation, maintenance, etc.

Maybe telecommuting can bring down this endless nimby fantasy of investment properties to finally kill draconian zoning that prevents building to meet demand and changing times. Then we might see growing cities that are also affordable be the norm and not the exception.

The problem with SF et al is the pressure to resist change in these cities due to nimbyism and zoning, which means they cannot adapt to demand and thus prices inflate.
damn you scarey

They're making Google's search engine less valuable in order to get free advertising. From Google's perspective, how are they not a scam site?
I don't think the people living on the streets are tech workers. Can't telecommute janitorial work.
"Bro culture" also usually involves people without the humility and communication skills to properly band together and rise to the occasion when the going gets rough. Yet another reason to avoid these companies.
BLMers will scream "murder" and "hands up don't shoot" at the top of their lungs at every chance they get, but when confronted with the evidence that the alleged victim of a police shooting was in fact a violent criminal living in violent neighborhood, suddenly the movement is about social issues and body cameras...until the next shooting and the cycle repeats.

A movement genuinely pushing for reasonable police reform and replacing lead pipes (for all people of all colors) would be much better received. But the problem is the movement is self-evidently not about actually solving problems. It's about pushing racial narratives. I suspect responses to your comment will further affirm this.
Huh? What's wrong?
Manager is always the #1 most important, but some things like the company culture is hard to tell from just a few interviews. Also, people come and go, which really affect the culture and environment. If it's too toxic, the only thing you can do is move on, I think.
You could always rent the home so someone else could occupy it. Presumably you would've paid off the $100k home by now, and then you could get a second mortgage on a new property, or rent and break even (given the income from renting the first property).
The difference is, in the past, there was always something to retrain to, because other industries had opportunities that ultimately balanced everything out. I don't think all the jobs lost to automation are going to have replacements, though, because there will just be less need for employees in general, so the total number of jobs is going to decrease over time.
Not justified, explained. I.E. "I didn't know that it was hurtful", "it was just a joke", "won't do it again", etc.

Perhaps "redeem" is a better word choice there.
You're probably single or ain't really into nature?. City life is better for that.

For a couple it's good. And if you want to do stuff driving once and a while isn't so bad. Camping, etc...
You're right that it's opt-out with Microsoft and opt-in with Apple. However Microsoft's opt-out screen appears during setup before you ever even reach the desktop. Where as Apple's opt-in is a nag that occurs periodically as you use the device or anytime you install an update.

I understand that Apple has publicly disclosed how they anonymize data and roll identifiers but Microsoft hasn't so you really can't say if telemetry data can be tied back to a user or not because you don't know.
One of the two made my life really uncomfortable when I surpassed his skill level

Can you give us a sample interaction that concretizes this, if it doesn't compromise the anonymity of you, this individual, or your company? I think some men can fall prey to perpetrating this even subconsciously, and it could be very useful for a lot of people, myself included, to see an example.

The issue is agenda based editing. While it is natural that people will disagree on context, that is not the problem, the problem is when you have agenda based editors who guard articles and suppress other viewpoints from any editing at all. That is what is happening on Wikipedia

I'm sure there are a few problems with this analysis that people smarter than I can point out but one thing that does come to mind is the age of a repository. I'm fairly confident that most of the highly starred Java and C++ repositories are much older than the ones for other languages. I'm not sure if the graphs took age into account but if they didn't, they should. A library that's been around for 10 years will likely have more than one that's been around for 1 years so it's not really a fair comparison.
Tldr; Free market and Darwinism. Move on.
There are ways to disable all of the various data collection mechanisms but they aren't sanctioned by Microsoft and MS provides no user interface for them. There are several projects on Github that perform varying degrees of this.

The same goes for Apple's collection mechanisms.
Many of my friends have found their college educations to be a thing beyond price.

More specifically, they've yet to find anyone who would give them a penny for it.

They have, however, found a few people who insisted that they keep making their student loan payments.
The reason for asking about whether the wife works outside the home is that in two-career couples, the husband necessarily needs to take on a larger share of the housework & childcare, which makes them more sympathetic to the constraints & sacrifices that a working mother has to make.

It is a lot more complicated than that. My ex was very idealistic and sincerely saw himself as pro women's lib, yet we had this 1950's style marriage. And he just could not follow basic logic concerning things keeping me trapped in "barefoot and pregnant" mode (so to speak).

I would talk about wanting to go to college and live elsewhere during the week and see him on weekends since he hardly saw me M-F anyway and there wasn't an acceptable local college that met my needs, and he would accuse me of trying to destroy the marriage. I would note that his job frequently took him away from the family and he would rebut that with "Someone has to support the family." He just could not see that this was sexist -- that the reason he had a career and I did not was because if his job took him away from the family, well, that was to be expected. If my ambitions took me away from the family, that was somehow nefarious, traitorous behavior and "LA LA LA NOT SEXISM, this is merely because I am the breadwinner and you are the homemaker, that's all." (Insert huge eyerolls here.)

We divorced for other reasons. He's a great guy in many ways. But there were things he just could not wrap his brain around.

So if the guy has a little wifey at home, even if he means well and is idealistic, you can find yourself dealing with this kind of shit. And it may not get any better (unless he gets divorced and remarries or something -- my ex apparently learned to cook after we divorced, shock of shockers).

42% of the housing stock in Los Angeles is already apartment buildings[1]. These and commercial real-estate(strip malls) make up the majority of "the sprawl" in Los Angeles.

Where does the land for your proposed solution of "just building townhouses and small apartment buildings" actually come from? Where are all these adjacent lots for sale?

LA is no stranger to "small apartment buildings", this started back in the 1950's. In fact one of its architectural signatures is the "dingbat", its hard to drive anywhere in the city and not see these[2].

I'm not really a C apologist, but I am pretty irritated with the near-constant calls for C deprecation. It's a lot easier to say, "C sucks!" than it is to do something about it, and I think we should at least internalize how difficult replacing C will be before we go around castigating people for continuing to use it.
I know it would be tough for senior citizens to move but there are lots of places in the US where you can rent a nice apt in a decent neighborhood. for quite a bit less than $1000. One bedrooms < $500. Maybe instead of trying to somehow conjure up lower rent housing in LA, set up a program to help people on fixed incomes relocate elsewhere. This would go for folks who work minimum wage too.
The problem with CO2 is that it's a delayed process. We may not see the results globally of changes in CO2 until years later; unless it's a very localized event that affects the monitoring station https://scripps.ucsd.edu/programs/keelingcurve/2016/08/31/br.... And even then, those small blips will be hard to call out/notice on a global scale (i.e. if we factored in multiple monitoring stations). Since most shorter term changes in CO2 will be localized and temporary, you're going to run into https://xkcd.com/1138/.

That's not to say that it wouldn't be a good idea to do, if we could attribute local events to local anomalies in CO2 we might be able to get people "incentivized" to get something that monitors it in their area and get some sort of gamification of groups trying to get their numbers lower.
Wut? Are you suggesting that it's just my opinion that machined aluminium is not the same as formed plastic?
If I had someone sitting in an open office with one of those tomatos ticking all day, and buzzing every 30 minutes I'd punch them.

They could apply a subtle background (like they do for sponsored results) to results that are behind a paywall, behind a registration-wall, or otherwise inaccessible.
Yes, thank you for clarification.
I also think django templates is not up to par in 2017, and use typically Django as an REST API platform; A node/react server would call the API and render the html.
The startup time fiasco was one of the reasons why Java never took over for GUI apps. Even though its unscientific, time to first usable interaction goes a long way in establishing "speed" in the users mind. You should see the hoops that Chrome jumps through to excel on this metric.

How do you know they're not doing it because they're not ready to retire? Why does everyone instantly believe someone working a remedial job in their 70s hates it? I strongly suspect by 70 I won't want to do what I'm doing now, too much stress, and if I'm not ready to retire it'd likely be low-key, undemanding work.
Do note that there are multiple editions of the Dragon book and later editions have a far better codegen section.

One of the more famous compiler writers from that era once told me that the Dragon book's original codegen section wasn't even historically how anyone wrote a compiler and it certainly didn't reflect modern practice even back in the 90s.

However, the update significantly improves it with the addition of Monica Lam's contribution. I don't know if it's state of the art for codegen (probably not), but I'm not sure what book is (Muchnick is great too, but this is also quite old now).

I don't understand it either. I can't begin to list the comforts and options that come from being rich. Guess we all know. There's really no alternate reality where it's much better to be average and have little or no options.

I usually take the view that I'd listen more to you if, to prove your point more empirically, you got reasonably rich and then just decided to give away all your wealth and resign to some lonely cabin in Maine.
Cloudstone – Sharpening Your Weapons Through Big Data
Absolutely and so does everyone else. Google is great at asking/nagging you to turn features back on that you've turned off in Android. And every time you update iOS, if you have Location Services or some other feature like iCloud turned off then you get nagged to turn them back on.
yeah man, fuck quora
Two things if I may say: for one, Sierra being 'crappy OS' is extremely personal point of view, such as mine, when I think it's a best OS for desktop computers available to date. Second, I really think Sierra 'as in the mountains' is going to outlive Sierra 'as in the macOS iteration'. I've far more faith in the mountain being there long after humanity, not to mention some OS from 21st century ;)
Yep, this discussion about DNSSEC happens here from time to time usually with the same arguments.

Once Chrome even supported DANE certs for domains but deprecated it for I think performance reasons:

> Some years ago now, Chrome did an ex­per­i­ment where we would lookup a TXT record that we knew ex­isted when we knew the In­ter­net con­nec­tion was work­ing. At the time, some 4–5% of users couldn't lookup that record; we as­sume be­cause the net­work wasn't trans­par­ent to non-stan­dard DNS re­source types. DANE records are going to be even more non-stan­dard, are going to be larger and browsers would have to fetch lots of them be­cause they'll need the DNSKEY/RRSIG chain up from the root. Even if DNSSEC record lookup worked flaw­lessly for every­one, we prob­a­bly still wouldn't im­ple­ment this as­pect of DANE be­cause each extra lookup is more la­tency and an­other chance for packet loss to cause an ex­pen­sive time­out and re­trans­mit.

Is DANE currently used for anything? XMPP certs?
I’ve been staying away from most new ES6 features because when I tested them a year ago (either transpiled or with native support) they were slow as molasses in every browser I tried. Hopefully having some better benchmarks gets Firefox and Chrome developers to also get to work on this.

Why is it Google's responsibility to administer all this? They have a published algorithm that is intended to maximize fair play on the web. If you don't like that algorithm find a way to buy off the other search engines for paid placement.
although 'toxic' implies some wrongdoing, which is usually not the case, as a guy i would recommend to avoid places like the one i work at. by this i mean businesses where the devs are guys and the only women are found in other (read higher) positions.

Although this phenomenon is often just a result of statistics (devs being male, hr managers being female, other managers 50-50), this has a creeping influence on people. from personal experience it made me more negative in my attitude towards women. i suspect it can breed hostility in others as well.

A second thing that can breed a hostile attitudes towards you is if you are at the same place as a higher up who is a male personal (esp. family) connection of yours.
I'd imaging this is more a response to Trump pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement than anything related to WWDC.
Sure if google and certain users are willing to give up their history and privacy for it. I doubt many people would like that. I wouldn't like giving up my privacy to this severe degree.

WSJ is slanted I dunno recently but I feel like anything Murdoc kinda ruined it.
I think you're making a very fair point. I really don't think she meant it in a pressuring way - but then I personally liked her - even if it was understood as that by some. I think it shows a bit how a) communication is important b) women can't quite do it right around childbirth.
Proposition 13 declared property taxes were to be assessed their 1975 value and restricted annual increases of the tax to an inflation factor, not to exceed 2% per year. A reassessment of the property tax can only be made a) when the property ownership changes or b) there is construction done.

Property often increases in value more than 2% per year, so your actual rate goes down.

Apple's opt-in is only triggered when you attempt to use a feature that relies on a function of the opt-in or when a new OS feature utilizes those functions. It's not a nag. It doesn't ask you until you want to use it. Microsoft assumes you want to use it and hides the opt-out settings under an "Advanced" button during setup when it asks about new features and then promptly asks you again after it assumes that you don't know what you're doing. The "Are you sure?" prompts on Windows are far more egregious.

If I understand correctly, you're pointing out that Harvard has a legal right to suppress its students' freedom of speech. I agree; I'm not arguing that Harvard has broken the law. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't criticize Harvard, or complain about the trend towards universities suppressing freedom of speech, or even advocate for making what Harvard did illegal [0]. So I agree that "free speech" doesn't apply in a legal sense, but I don't think that's relevant to the discussion.

(Or did I misunderstand what you were saying?)

Google Chrome has yanked out all support for Internationalized Domain names recently.

This includes far more domains, which are not just on business cards, but even in corporate names, trademarks, on billions of products.

Yet, it was still done.

Because Google felt like it.
Yeah a good idea. I was thinking we could make a similar table to compat-table (maybe using six-speed or this) that we could use as data to https://github.com/babel/babel-preset-env so that Babel could compile based on the compiled speed relative to native support. Haven't really looked into in much yet (if anyone is interested, let me know)

Basically, if there is native support but it's not as fast as compiled/polyfilled we could continue to compile.
Why would you buy a new property and lose 6% to realtors? Or take out a new possibly more expensive loan. I am not sure property tax is a big motivator. Do you have studies that show it's negative effect?
Why Women Devs Are Hard to Recruit and Even Harder to Keep
Wow. I would decline to answer any question related to my family or family situation. It's inappropriate for the interviewer to ask this of a candidate and the reverse is equally inappropriate.
I actually would find it useful if Google had an indicator like 3 pay-walled results omitted, show them?

At least being able to know it exists can help consumers decide if they should pay for an article/subscription.
You're right, this is wrong in our current paradigm. But our current paradigm is wrong, too.

I want a world that supports business models other than web advertising. It negatively impacts journalistic integrity and freedom while further exacerbating the race to the bottom search engines and other content aggregators create.

> First, the most important person is your direct manager.

In my experience, this is good advice for everyone. No one else in the organization will have as much input, weight, and sway as to what happens to your professional self in the next couple of years as your direct manager.

I find it interesting that even though apple showed us just an empty shell, some journalist told us that this is probably the best sounding speaker out there...

RDF jokes aside, I think this will be released as a pure music player first and get smart assistant functions within a year. I don't think it will get an open API the same way google home has but apple will inatead partner with select companies.
This is free market capitalism that Rupert Murdoch's company Fox News promotes.

Google News fundamentally improved the online content publication system by making it cheaper to its consumers.

Earlier, there were too many news companies whose content didn't necessarily have an edge over some other news agency's and they charged money (which worked in an age where no internet existed), and google has fundamentally squeezed some of them including WSJ.

If the differentiating quality was present, more people might have been willing to pay for WSJ.

When Harrison Ford made cars, lots of businesses who built business around the inefficient means of transport (i.e the horse) like providing fodder for horses, and blacksmiths who were building horse shoes or the ones building horse carts got squeezed.

Same here. Internet and google has removed an inefficiency in the news system. They need to adapt and provide a differentiating quality, else they will perish - The principle of free market capitalism.

If WSJ needs google to behave a certain way so that it can make more money, that is not free market capitalism.
P3 = Snap Spectacles, also?
I'm totally with you, but what would you propose as a pragmatic solution? I really can't think of anything myself.
