It's not the administrative salaries so much as the bloat. Look at the org chart of any major state school 30 years ago compared to today.

Coach salaries tend to be eye-catching but they are generally entirely funded by the athletic department and its supporters, not tuition or state funds.

I currently am using the Steelcase Buoy [1]. It's backless and for me is the most practical of the backless office chairs. It costs much less than the Swopper chair [2] which isn't any more comfortable.

I've owned both; they seem to help my back because I don't slouch when using them. It takes about a week to get accustomed to using a seat without a back that rocks around.

Does "parallel construction" mean "finding plausible but fake explanations for how we got the evidence so we don't burn our successful and secret investigation techniques"?
Just guessing from context...
There is no demand for qualified developers, only a demand for cheap, skilled labor. If there were a demand, these coding schools would not have such a devil of a time getting decent jobs for their grads.(and they do-
just talk to some honest, recent grads-- it will be tough to find honest ones who are unemployed/underemployed on a public forum, if you know what I mean.) Why, if there is such a great demand, isn't the burden to educate on the employer who needs the labor? It used to be, back before we made students pay for several degrees with no employment in sight. Now, it is all the fault of the individual. The corporations are just looking for honest work here, right? ;) We all just got used to being blamed if we could not fully fund faux-careers for our LinkedIn profiles a decade before any real employment emerged for us. If these bootcamps are actually filling such a great need in the industry, why should the students pay? I get why people pay for Harvard: the connections!! (but...is even Harvard free now if you can't pay?- so there's even that too, for Harvard!) Those law students get wined and dined for free and multiple offers from great jobs without even asking, much less "applying". This is NOT the case with these bootcamps, no matter what they claim. They are all struggling to get these junior devs decent work. Their meager "connections" got used up with their first crop of students, and now the ladders have been pulled up after them. Sure, there are a very very few exceptions, as always. If a school aims to teach, they should be able to keep enrollment low, and they should be able to teach anyone from zero with an interest serious enough that they drop out of society to do it for several months of their life. Because employers would pay big money for that service, just like they do for Harvard grads. BUT THEY DON'T. Instead, they seek those who could already do it without their help, and they seek payment from them too, thereby getting the benefit of looking like they "helped" an actual ivy league grad get a job, when it was more that that grad helped them look good. I wrote a more detailed response to A CIRR.org representative on the shorter of the threads about Dev Bootcamp's recent closing, if you are interested in a deeper analysis on what these bootcamps "did wrong", or are doing wrong. Here is the link to my response to "ewisesg" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14773016
Question: if the pay was such that you weren't taking a pay cut, would that have made you stay longer? What would the conditions have to be like for someone who's a senior engineer to even consider making "a career change" into teaching swe for the next 10 years of their career, rather than a 2 year moonlighting stint? (Wondering what the setup had to be too make this sustainable)
I've had an original Apple Watch for three years and have never needed more battery life. You charge it when you sleep. It charges super fast so if your forget you can charge it while taking a shower. When I forgot to charge it once, it still lasted all the second day too.

And it has an excellent heart rate monitor.
My sympathies lie with her.

Any man who doesn't realize that if he has a substantial size advantage, it will be inherently intimidating, is a troglodyte. And he probably wasn't oblivious. He probably happily used that to his advantage as an intimidation tactic.

Men tend to be physically stronger than women, even when their size is pretty comparable. Add a height advantage and things rapidly get ugly.

There's no way state schools currently cost $40k. Maybe $15k.

Easy federal aid money certainly helps push up the price tag. It's effectively a subsidy.
Robert Anton Wilson in his book "Quantum Psychology" makes a strong case that we observe quantum effects at the macro-scale all the time. He's not a physicist but his understanding of Quantum Mechanics is not "hand-wavey".

I didn't have the chance to take their classes (timing for Cohort Zero in 2013 was just a LITTLE bit off), but all the people I knew involved were passionate about giving a quality education and moving the industry forward. I had no hesitations recommending them over other for-profit schools. And that's not even getting into how well they sponsored the local tech scene.

Cheers to everyone involved with this, and I hope you all land on your feet.
I have a friend who quite frequently used to buy from online markets (I have since lost touch with him). From what he told me what he and his friends used to do was to buy a new post box and set it up somewhere away from where they lived under a fictitious address and name. So they'd be John Doe living at Copper Street 45 (when it only actually goes to 44 or whatever).

Then he'd track how long the package took, whether or not it was delivered normally by the postal service and even then wait a week or so and get it in the middle of the night. Nowadays they apparently just use drones instead to deliver stuff.
The top comment under which my comment falls is about police use of forensic "science".

>The big crime is how little epistemological support there is for some of the big forensic tools (fingerprints, DNA, bite marks, arson spread, etc), how little interest there is in researching these areas, and how trusted they are.
But I am curious: apart from TV shows, how important is this kind of evidence in most trials? Is it actually uncommon?
There's a big discussion about what's bad about drugs. But I wonder if we can rationally work out what's bad about child porn.

My understanding is that possessing it means you obtained it from someone, who probably wanted some kind of payment, who abused children to produce the material so he could get that payment.

There are quite a few gaps there. What if it was published for free? What if children weren't physically abused but were secretly and anonymously photographed? Shouldn't there be exceptions for victimless child porn?

Of course the dominant factor is people are horrified by deviant sexualities. We're barely managing to accept homosexuality which is probably more common than peadophilia.
Regarding #1, an Iron Yard competitor offered a six-month contract for $45,000, 1099, here in Boston (with "an option" to re-up, at the same rate). It would not exactly be difficult to beat that number by doing almost anything else.

Another was talking about $80K/year...in freaking Ohio.

I would love to teach more than I do, and I'm starting to work on some web courses because I've learned from corporate training that I'm good at it, but the money doesn't make sense at all.
Your right, it's only about $30k per year. And an employee isn't the same as a shareholder, unless that employee controls a non-profit, runs it to make substantial profits and skims those profits by paying themselves and their cronies massive salaries. Go look up the salaries of your state school President, Administrators, Athletic Director, Football and Basketball Coaches, and Professors.
> Coach salaries tend to be eye-catching but they are generally entirely funded by the athletic department and its supporters, not tuition or state funds.

This is only true at a small number of schools. Most subsidize the athletics department through fees they levy on students in addition to the normal tuition.
I would imagine it wouldn't be advertised as a product developed solely for Darknet related markets but rather a marketplace for people who value their privacy and such. A few of the torrent sites I use have their tracker source code available on GitHub.

For example: you could make a cluster-wide lock that you code uses to coordinate access to cluster-wide shared resource.

Locks on most OSes have an "outer scope" of a process or the machine.
I don't know if it's the same for everyone else but growing up I was told you're supposed to chase girls and that if you don't actively pursue them you'll end up alone. I think that's where this kind of thing comes from.
Not the legal one, besides it's not the same in each jurisdiction/country.

According to Wikipedia: "Harassment can include "sexual harassment" or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature." and "It includes a range of actions from mild transgressions to sexual abuse or sexual assault."

I referred to a "stressful situation" in justifying the PT(S)D claim, i.e. to say that this was indeed stressful (as I explicitly say), whereas you seem to be in the impression that I said it to downplay the incident.
I think it is more complicated than that, but that no doubt is a contributing factor.

Playing devil's advocate: if you can trust that 1Password is doing everything they can to protect you, the user (using HTTPS, resource integrity) while using the browser app, then are you worried that 1Password may act maliciously? I see this argument all the time but I don't buy it because why on Earth would 1Password do such a thing, if their entire model is based on the customer trusting them handling their data?
I dunno about elsewhere, but in-state tuition in Texas is no more than $10k (varies by school, but none are above that). Still too high, but it's not yet at private-school levels of absurdity.

But future generations will probably laugh at us. Our rule of thumb about deprivation of oxygen and brain damage is based on the idea that brain damage occurs on the "down" side when the brain is deprived. Actually, the damage occurs on the "up" side when a patient is revived under non-ideal circumstances for brain operation. It turns out the brain if you wake it "up" properly can stay "down" as long as other organs. Think kidneys frozen for 24 hours before being successly transplanted. And a proper wake up involves slow extracorporeal rewarming as mentioned in one of the top comments.

If we can accept this down/up inversion as true, then it means that rushing to revive a patient is what does the damage. It means applying CPR in the field as soon as possible does the damage.

If true, it means 20 minutes, or even 2 hours, of not breathing is nothing as long as the cold body is rewarmed slowly.

If true, it means it is better to keep the brain "down", body "frozen", everything cold as possible (but above the temp of ice crystals riping apart blood cells causing permanent limb loss) until --and this is the key part-- a proper wake "up" can be performed.

If true it means the current limits observed with oxygen deprivation exist only because we are still concerned with reviving as soon as possible. Leave that child passed out! (But keep 'em cold.)

If all this is true, it means that saving a loved one is best done buy applying ice over applying CPR.

Future generations will shake their heads in disbelief, at how many people we have needlessly injured and killed with the barbaric practice of rushing to revive. I look forward to the improvement in how we save/restore lives. I look forward to the improvement from the slow but steady diffusion through our collective awareness of of the idea:

I can't tell if you are trying to be helpful or trying to be critical of me. I don't see a clear label. The photo fits the description given in the article, but if the article clearly states that THIS, right here, is the photo in question, I am failing to see it.

Which, you know, could just be because I have pathetic eyesight. But I honestly do not see a clear and unequivocal indicator to that effect.
Hey, I have liked Gusto a lot. You have saved me so much trouble. Thanks for making a great product with really great support team.

I realized how much work Gusto saved me when I had to go file nanny taxes on my own. I actually wrote in and asked if you had a nanny plugin yet (sadly, no, but you pointed me to an overpriced competitor that had it).

I find Gusto is great for the payroll side of things, and Quickbooks online is decent for the bookkeeping side of things. I went through every accounting package out there, I wanted to use a competitor.. but quickbooks was just a bit easier. They do have a payroll piece, but I have not tried it due to liking Gusto. It syncs fine with Gusto.

Taken together the combo is under 100 bucks a month. Not sure the exact scale level, but I think they should work for 2 employees up to maybe 50 employees. I have no idea past that, and at some point I would imagine you need some kind of HR department and a real bookkeeper.. but I can at least vouch for the combo for early employees.

Then for actual tax time, I just found a local CPA that came recommended. He doesn't like gusto, but he likes quickbooks.. so I can just share my quickbooks accounts and he can do his stuff.
> Or would the goal be to hire the best 100 and that should end up being roughly 35 females that are equally qualified and therefore earn the same?

In my opinion, this would make the most sense. You shouldn't be hiring specific portions of people. If, however, you have hired a bunch of people and you find that the number of women is disproportionately low or that their pay is unexpectedly lower, you should look into why that might be.

There are very few (if any) jobs where someone's gender (or race, etc.) affects their qualifications, except insofar as different proportions of each group enter the field.
But not very important for FFI, since bitfields rarely seem to show up in C APIs (presumably for exactly the reasons mentioned above).

A kind of similar issue appears even with enums, because it is hard to guess the size of the integer that a given enum is implemented with. This is why it some not to use C enums in public interfaces to libraries.
> A server side website has to bring down the 20K page again and again as the user navigates through your site. Caching or web server configuration makes no difference here.

Browser caching, not server-side caching. The browser doesn't have to "bring down" the 20k page "again and again", it gets the assets out of its cache (html, js, css, images, etc), and then the JavaScript loads the 5k article when the DOM is ready. Hope you're not trolling. Non-SPA websites can be basically just as fast as SPA's, and in practice they are often faster since they are usually built without frameworks and have less JavaScripts.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOw-lgEG6Y0 at 0:53 and 2:17 is where they show an offset crash; not very comprehensive but it is clear to me that the shell remained pretty solid. I guess I am still in shock at the utter lack of integrity in the passenger compartment of the Kwid and the Nano - I really thought cars in this decade would be designed better than that. All of the safety comparisons with mopeds etc. sound a little ridiculous to me - I feel somewhat safe saying that none of us would ever knowingly buy the Kwid or Nano even if they were allowed in our respective countries; I definitely would prefer to walk over buying it. If it is not good enough for me, IMO it is not good enough for the folks in India.
No, this was caused by employers abdicating their responsibility to actually interview and/or train people and instead taking "college graduate" as a proxy (mostly for "willing to sit in a seat and swallow bullshit").

Of course, once they made "college degree" a proxy, everybody on the production side responded correctly and reduced into to its core essence as you said: "pay for this piece of paper and who cares about quality since an interview won't test me anyway".

If it actually mattered, the most rational action is for employers to either 1) interview people without college degrees or 2) train people without college degrees. The fact that neither of these is occurring tells me that the employers aren't really that bothered by the current situation.
There is following the law, and there is knowingly conviction of an innocent. This is the second one, and IMO there really should be penalties for this.
This is really outrageous. These two people had zero business relationship, and no one is alleging that any laws were violated, or even that there are any torts. As far as anyone can tell from the article, he has had no opportunity to refute any of this.

The worst accusation is that he put his hand on the ass of a married woman. Now, should have done that? No. That wasn't a nice thing to do. He had a few drinks and got a bit too bold. If true, does he deserve to be trash talked at brunch with the girls? Sure. It's certainly something that he should reflect on and be more cautious next time. Should we take seriously the claims of "PTSD-like" symptoms based on having a man touch her ass and then do nothing when she got in a cab and drove away? Well, are women adults? One hundred fifty years ago, the thinking was that women were too emotional to make adult decisions, and so they shouldn't be entrusted to do things like own property or vote. Over the years, we've come to agree that women and men are equal. I personally think that this is a good thing, but the power of adulthood and citizenship comes with responsibility. Catherine Shu is asking for sympathy and vengeance as if she were a child. Obviously, if some random venture capitalist woman were to grab a journalist man's ass after a couple of drinks, there would definitely not be a TechCrunch article about it.

If women are children, we certainly should not entrust them with positions of responsibility in corporations, and I would not hire a child at an equivalent level of pay to an adult for an engineering role.

So, it's really women's choice. Do you want the power and benefits of being an adult, or do you want the protection and coddling of a child? Personally, I'm OK with either, but we need to get this straight before we hire a bunch of children to do important work.
For my case, the best method so far is to interview and pitch to your target market.

Usually, 10 to 15 interviews would be enough to know. People in ur distant circle (friend of friend) would usually agree to coffee if you offer to pay.

The first idea usually doesn t make it. It evolves as i interview more people.

Face to face meet up has been more valuable to me than tools like facebook ads.

I taught at a traditional institution and had the same experiences you did. Although I had to leave because I lost confidence in the institution. I think you'd find the same challenges in a slower-paced program, to be honest - there's plenty to do. While I only spent 4 hours a day in the classroom, I spent the rest of it either grading, revising lessons to keep things fresh, or grading assessments. The most time consuming part was providing meaningful feedback. Sure I could've phoned it in, but nobody likes getting a grade without feedback. And nobody learns from it either.

Despite the hours, it was worth it tho. I love hearing from my former students. There are times when I wish I was still doing it.

When you care like you and I do, you put your whole self into helping people make a better life for themselves learning to do what you already love to do, you'll take the low pay and the stress because it outweighs the negative.

The sad thing is that people who run a lot of these places know that, so they can get away with paying you a lot less than you'd make if you stayed in dev.
It's easier for evidence to say the person is innocent than guilty. Ex: a blurry video of a white guy. It's in no way enough to show which white person did it, but it is enough to show no black person did.

While I believe that western sexual norms are a bit puritanical, the premise behind protecting children with zealous laws is that it is extremely difficult to judge whether child pornography is truely victimless, even if you believe that harm from childhood sexuality is overstated in modern society. Because of the power imbalance between adults and children, and the permanent effects that abuse can have on children, it is reasonable to err on the side of caution and keep all child/adult sexual interactions illegal, and reduce demand for such interactions by keeping pornography illegal.

As an aside, I am curious as to the reason you are being down voted, besides your audacity of expressing an unpopular opinion.
