I just don't understand why your CV is considered too personal, but you are telling all these things.

Although that might be hard, I would recommend to reorganize your life such that you can separate your professional life from your personal/emotional life. Don't get a remote job. Move to wherever you can commute to work. Even if babysitting would take a considerable part of the paycheck, pay for it.

Probable not the comment you wanted to read, but I just wanted to address the elephant in the room. This is not about not finding online gigs. This is deeper than that.
Good for them. That would be a what, a pretty small fraction of the global population? And that's before asking whether it's true love or just Stockholm syndrome.
But where do you look? Everywhere else is ad-hoc market places that you'd have to know about, such as Newegg for tech.

But what's the Newegg of other stuff?
You forgot something there...

EDIT: uBlock did this, my apologies.
If both pro- and anti-Brexit are outraged, this should be a pretty clear indicator that it's not bias or manufactured editorializing.

"Leaving the EU" is a valid political worldview/goal, whether you agree with it or not, however the specific "implementation" known as Brexit has proven to be a scam, because it's not an implementation at all: politicians manipulated and lied their way to victory, and once the referendum was over they made no effort to hide that their plan was "by the way, we have no plan". Because there was no responsible preliminary assessment of the cost and outcome of Brexit, let alone any roadmap, people on both side of the issue are realizing their politicians are navigating on sight, with no map or compass, during a process critical for the future of their country. A process they triggered. In that situation, isn't outrage warranted?

As for Trump, well, it's not a UK thing. The whole world is laughing at the US.
> Also my corporate windows 10 laptop has the entire window store and modern app infrastructure disabled

Wow that's... What?

For all its warts, the Windows Store is a secure app delivery platform. Doesn't disabling it merely encourage downloading zipped executables from sleazy unencrypted websites?
safari and edge users are a tiny minority. Most security aware people use chrome anyway.
I wonder why it needs development. Any security holes would very likely to be in image format parsers, which are hopefully dynamically linked and maintained elsewhere.
Is an MBA in the U.S. worth it for international students?

If they want to cut the bloat they can better look at fixing their installers. I don't need a copy of every installer ever used in my windows and program directories. Those folders are almost always the largest folders on my PC.
I did the same, makefile and accompanying blog entry is here: http://flukus.github.io/building-a-blog-engine.html

Turned out much simpler (if less feature full), much faster (it's finished in the time it takes node to start) and much more stable than other's I've used.
Sounds like a wasted opportunity for HBO not to have a Netflix-like service that's completely separated from cable contracts.
> All those people have access to the sum of all human knowledge and the ability to educate themselves almost as well (some would argue even better) than students of the most expensive universities. They can communicate with anyone at almost no marginal cost, and can sell products and services to basically anyone else on the planet.

Is this even happening though?
Professor Yash Pal
lots of people raging..... about resizing and cropping.... So I figure I'd have a go

I haven't used Paint 3d before until a few moments ago, and very quickly worked out how to resize and crop an image. Seemed simple enough. The image resizing is actually better than most I've seen.
If someone else is looking for what the study actually means by "buying time", this is the closest thing to an answer that I found in the text:

> In all samples, respondents completed two questions about whether—and how much—money they spent each month to increase their free time by paying someone else to complete unenjoyable daily tasks.
How is it unfortunate? Korean might have some features that sound familiar to a Japanese speaker -- e.g. word order and morphology of Sinitic vocabulary -- but phonology is quite challenging and non-Sinitic vocabulary is completely different. Overall it's far, far harder than Esperanto for Japanese speakers.

The truth is, there's actually a huge amount of centrist in the USA. Those centrists are reasonable people. They'll hear you out, think, analyze and make up their mind. They'll accept compromise, and they'll try hard to see if maybe there's truth to consider, even if most things said appears exaggerated, or ridiculous.

And then there's unreasonable people. They don't want to think, or consider options.

In the USA, if you are unreasonable, you're most likely on the right. Most reasonable people are clustered with the left. And a minority of unreasonable people are also on the left, with another minority of reasonable people clustered on the right.

Effectively, the right averages to be unreasonable, and the left to be reasonable. I find the media reflect that quite well. Maybe CNN forgot to consider an option, so they reconsider. Fox news doesn't, they're not trying to be reasonable.

So what's happening currently is all reasonable people on the left is trying to give a chance to the minority of reasonable people on the right. While the bigger chunk of unreasonable people on the right are trying to avoid all reasoning about alternative options.

In that sense, its normal for most reasonable news source to appear tied to the left. And most unreasonable news source to appear tied to the right.

Actually, consonants are pretty discrete. You can move your tongue further and further back and it is still perceived as the same fricative (for example), but move it just a bit further back and the quality of the sound changes completely to another fricative.

Vocals, on the other hand, are continuous, so that miniscule changes in your jaw-tongue configuration makes it sound differently.

That's why you usually recognize non-native speakers by their vowels. It takes many years to get vowels right.
Not they didn't.

But they did during 2009. By July, a number of bills were already approved by committees in the House. And the Fall is usually when the companies get prices for the next year. So it went up sharply then. Then in again in 2010. Price is not always comparable because the level of coverage had also changed. We had to get new plans and while they covered some mandatory free procedures and didn't have lifetime maximum, they had also bigger deductibles and a reduction in options and procedures covered.
While entertaining, No Agenda is far too conspiracy-theory laden to be taken seriously. They frequently talk about "chemtrails" and mock scientists who believe in climate change. Not too far off from Alex Jones.
When that "Get Office" thing first popped-up, I was sure my PC was infected with malware and came to the brink of formatting my hard drive.

Later came the random console pop-up from the automatic WSL updates [1] and then I did panic enough to actually format all the things but that's another story.

Yeah, there were many such attempts in Slavic world. It gives you uncomfortable 80% understanding, while just speaking your own languages gives you like 60% between most pairs. Not good enough to make people use it.

Immensely helped is a high bar, but what comes to mind is JRebel that I found improved productivity and paid for itself quickly.
I was a freelancer with no network 10 years back. I used to get cheap projects and some crappy clients. Some 5 years back, I got to work at a startup (luck and my relentless application to jobs did the trick). I had to move away from my hometown. Remote was _not_ an option. We got bought by LinkedIn and I was an engineer at LinkedIn. That blew my network up! I get remote work offers in my hometown.

In my experience, face time matters if you are from place no one knows about. There is a reason most engineering talent is in and around Silicon Valley.

I am not sure about github or other technical profiles as the people who make the decision of hiring you never visit github or understand code. I am taking about the CEO of a small company who will hire you and not the cool SF startup that we read more often.

Companies want to reduce risk, remote increases it because of the unknowns. If I were you, I would again start with upwork and similar freelancing sites. The shady things you hear are distractions and everyone has a different experience. There is a reason the upworks of today still exist and are doing business.

I wish you the best! :)
Huh. I just tried it. A snipping interface came up and let me select a rectangle of the screen. Then, none of the following things happened:

- A message telling me where the picture went.

- The picture showing up on the desktop.

- The picture showing up in "Documents".

- The picture showing up in "Pictures".

But, I was able to recover the screenshot by... opening Paint, and pasting from the clipboard! That's not a solution that will be available on a machine without Paint.

Reading is not just a proxy for thinking. It's the gateway to a world of knowledge. Macchiavelli described this beautifully in a letter to Francesco Vettori in 1513 from exile in the Tuscan countryside. [1] It's the best description I have ever read of the life of the mind.

Here's the money paragraph in full.

When evening comes, I return home and enter my study; on the threshold I take off my workday clothes, covered with mud and dirt, and put on the garments of court and palace. Fitted out appropriately, I step inside the venerable courts of the ancients, where, solicitously received by them, I nourish myself on that food that alone is mine and for which I was born; where I am unashamed to converse with them and to question them about the motives for their actions, and they, out of their human kindness, answer me. And for four hours at a time I feel no boredom, I forget all my troubles, I do not dread poverty, and I am not terrified by death. I absorb myself into them completely. And because Dante says that no one understands anything unless he retains what he has understood, I have jotted down what I have profited from in their conversation and composed a short study, De principatibus, in which I delve as deeply as I can into the ideas concerning this topic, discussing the definition of a princedom, the categories of princedoms, how they are acquired, how they are retained, and why they are lost. And if ever any whimsy of mine has given you pleasure, this one should not displease you. It ought to be welcomed by a prince, and especially by a new prince; therefore I am dedicating it to His Magnificence Giuliano. Filippo da Casavecchia has seen it. He will be able to give you some account of both the work itself and the discussions I have had with him about it, although I am continually fattening and currying it.

Thank you for clearing that up. Personally, I'm more likely to lose my phone or have it brick itself (happened to my previous phone) than to lose a yubikey.
If you're asking for yourself, then you could just frequently force yourself to read for longer periods of time. I found that this retrained my distraction-prone brain pretty quickly.

As for people in general who largely would never force themselves to do anything on their own I doubt there's a quick solution that isn't based on shame and social pressure.
I was just talking with my wife the other night about how her aunt swears Kaiser killed her dad because he came in multiple times for this cough that bothered his throat. He kept being ignored and brushed aside, and low and behold full blown throat cancer took him out. From the initial doctor visit till his death a few years later or some significant chunk of time, he was estimated to have been in his early stages where treatment was on option. By the time it spread it was too late.

On mobile I can't read this article. Paragraphs end midway.
When we work more and spend money to outsource household stuff, that increases GDP and allows the government to tax more of the economic output.

If you do your own household work, that's not counted in the GDP and is non-taxable. I guess that's why some countries have been subsidising day care, etc.
I suffer from digestion issues too and would like to try elimination diet. Could you please share some reliable sources or advice on that? It's hard to google anything good health/diet related, because most sources are pure BS.
That was how it was branded—Paint 3D replaced mspaint.exe and it was positioned as an upgrade (Paint → Paint 3D). But there was substantial backlash when Paint 3D didn’t do all that mspaint.exe had done, and Microsoft caved to pressure and put mspaint.exe back a build or two later.
I don't understand those people. I went out and got a job doing what I love, but it only turned the thing I love into a fucking job.

Yup, that's how you read a book.

I would, however, cut the the paragraph as follows. Everything after is just an adversisement for the authors blog.

They could do what Apple does with Java: provide a stub tool that, when run, asks permission to download and install the real thing. That streamlines the "download and install" process.

For Paint, I'm not sure that would be a big win, disk space-wise. mspaint.exe is around 6.5 MB on my system, but it may need additional files. However, they could do the same for Notepad (which probably isn't on the firing line yet because quite a few installers and updaters launch it by hard-coded path if users want to read release notes) and a few other tools and share the code for asking permission between those.
There are many books on the subject, Models is a good one. I don't see why anyone would waste time trying to write some web page about why nerds in particular have a hard time dating.

Social awkwardness is a well covered subject in this and many other books. Even better, it's covered by people who have more than theory to back their ideas.

More pertinently, what happens when your grandma searches for "MS Paint" in the Store, other than needing an account? We all know the store is mostly trash and I have no doubt that people pushing their trash will leap on this chance to flood the search results for relevant keywords.
And these can also be explained by unit tests .. you keep the old unit tests and rewrite everything so those tests pass. Sometimes that means getting some of the same weird quirks or gotchas, but hopefully refactored so they are all in one place and clearly documented.
So we can discuss it in a constructive manner, for example by pointing out what makes this pseudo-science and why it might be not the worst idea anyway. Like other commenters have done, and I enjoyed reading their arguments.

I think Microsoft is now afraid that people (developers that were hired by enterprises) are willing to move to *nix so much so that they will force enterprises to gave up on MS stack.

This way they could lose SQL Server customer and Windows customer at the same time - having SQL Server version for Linux will keep SQL Server customer.

I believe this wouldn't have happened 10 years ago, and moreover, it would have sounded just unbelievable.

This reminds me not only of things that could change very fast. It reminds that even when things go well with your business there's always someone thing that could "disrupt" your market, like a new dimension. And that thing won't be invisible. It will grow nearby and you will see such company and just won't assume that it represents any danger.

There's an efuse based revocation mechanism. It isn't used for every vulnerability. That's unfortunate but understandable-- fuses are a scarce resource. Given that, signers should be more careful about the code they sign in the first place to avoid stressing that resource.

Having said that, at the end of the day this is still just a security feature that is painful to use. That doesn't make it a vulnerability in and of itself, and dressing it up as one feels like a stretch.
Looks interesting. Somehow it would not work on a image file.
I find the title very contradictory to the article. It's going to "stay", but in the Windows Store (so you have to download), and with very subtle words they say that it's not going to get any updates. So, no Microsoft, you're saying it's going to go more than you're saying it's going to stay.

Intuitively, I'd expect that a day care provider has a higher ratio of children to staff than families have of children to primary caregivers, and that the difference is such that subsidising day care can increase GDP just by freeing up more parents to work
