It doesn't. Incorporation only helps if you have a flexible work arrangement and can shift income from salary into consulting fees or other payments to your Corp.
Our GA is setup through GTM now, that is why it's not hardcoded into our head. Really the most important gain we get from hosted libraries is caching. Since any user that has hit a google hosted lib, which is pretty widely used and distributed it allows them to access their cached version instead of sending our another request.
It honestly doesn't really matter. Both ingest Markdown, apply a theme, and spit out HTML which you then copy to your HTTP server. It's sort of like asking "which version control do you prefer? Mercurial or Git" or "which build tool do you prefer? clang or gcc." Your choice in the matter doesn't really impact the end result, just your own workflow. Jekyll is probably more popular simply because GitHub has it integrated with GitHub Pages.
Let's be honest: the corporations that hire us will drop us as soon as it becomes convenient to the bottom line, and as likely as not without a severance package.

You owe it to yourself to get the best possible compensation package, because no one else will do it for you.
Compare that to downloading one statically built Hugo binary :)
What about a lite package with a self hosted option like Sendy/gitlab?

How about Marketing? Can you segmentise your product and address a lot of different categories of clients? Eg. A template setup to ease starting?

Have you tried upselling some way?

I wouldn't drop the ball for a difficult year, it is however a wake up call...

In general, you can split up a small team and let them work on a revision of the product with everything you have learned. Not a big team, but a small team with a lot of domain knowledge.

I did hear youtube having 503 errors.
Seconded. I used to feel lower back pain due to the amount of sitting at a desk. Running and lifting weights did wonders for how I feel on a daily basis.
I live on the N/NE border in Seattle, but fortunately I'm on an avenue, so the entire street is N.

It's an interesting system that I'd never seen before I moved here. Streets are East/West. Avenues are North/South. The compass direction indicates the section of the city that the street is in. And the directional goes up front on streets and on the end for avenues.

It sounds like Portland has the same system - how widespread is it? Is it a pacific NW thing?
That's very true if you're selling something with a low value (most things consumers buy really), but you're dreaming if you think you can sell a technical product to a business for $10k + without salespeople. Enterprise sales is more like project management than what you probably think of when you hear "sales." Especially when you've got to pass through engineering, finance, procurement and legal to get a deal across the line.
I see this argument a lot but I don't think it's necessarily a good one. If a third party CDN goes down, your site is down.

A few extra ms in initial download isn't so bad compared to having your site be completely inaccessible for reasons outside your control.
I have done this before. But if you are actually MiTM downloading the GPG sums from the same source as your ISO is a little pointless. That is the problem, how do you bootstrap the trust? It all still just goes back to TLS and the CA.

You can check the sums over time and acquire them using multiple connections to verify they are all the same to gain a higher level of confidence, but this is actually annoying for someone with a high level of technical skill and basically impossible for most people. I only do this for things that require the highest levels of operational security, like, say, if I am setting up a system to sign certificates in a CA or something.

A slightly easier approach is to strip down your CAs to a bare minimum in your browser config, and double check the certificates being presented on TLS download sites. You can still be owned by a MiTM if the CAs actively collude with a nation state and have given them signing keys, but... there isn't much to do about that. The options really aren't that great in terms of really verifying things.
However pretty, I wouldn't use something non-standard for generating IDs unless I was doing something embedded which required careful memory management under hardware constraints, where I most definitely wouldn't be using JS.
> Their distribution, dealer network, marketing, etc. is in place world-wide and very well established.

>> Yes, but it is all built around selling the ICE as the ultimate driving machine.

That... doesn't really make any sense. A Tesla and a Mercedes are literally indistiguishable from each other on the basis of their powertrain. They both look the same and have the same function and work the same.

If I modified a Tesla to ICE and it was your next Uber ride you would not really be able to tell the difference unless you were closely paying attention, and vice versa. Yes there are some performance differences and sound differences, sort of, but from a functional perspective they're both just luxury cars, outside of refueling the user experience is exactly the same.

Sure, it's an engineering challenge, but the idea that the dealer network and marketing don't apply equally well to electric cars is totally unsupported. In fact, the luxury car marketing experience is so similar across the board that you just used the BMW slogan to describe Mercedes Benz.
The headline result (sedentary behavior leads to increased risk of mortality) is not completely supported by the results shown in the abstract.

They break the test subjects into four groups ranked by activity level, and compare the the highest activity group to the rest. But in the results, only the lowest activity group has a hazard ratio where the 95% confidence interval does not contain 1. Translation: the data only shows a meaningful difference in mortality risk between the highest and lowest activity groups. For the other two groups, the data does not support show an increased risk.
I dont know about ultrasonic, but I certainly have a camcorder recording of some high frequency sounds which could be used to jump air gaps much like dial up modems used to make when handshaking. You wouldnt hear the sound in a normal office environment only in a silent office, because the external speakers & amp were turned up close to max but not playing anything which is also not normal for most offices. Its quite likely whilst highly technical those behind this form of attack are not able to deduce what environment the attack is taking place in like a normal office or a silent office.

As speakers can be used as microphones (technology is essentially the same just different ohms and materials used for the cone) and modern motherboards can detect when a 3.5mm jack plug is plugged into a headphone socket, it might be possible to have the speakers acting as a microphone in some situations. Its something I'm still looking into, but I have noticed the some DJ mixes on Youtube will play up ie going quiet when you have headphone's plugged in but not when using built in speakers like those found on a laptop. You can reset the mix going quiet by unplugging the 3.5mm stereo jack, now whether this is some sort of DRM technology being used as some of the DJ mixes will be illegal copies uploaded to Youtube, I dont know yet just like I dont know if these are related or separate events to BadBios. Its not unheard of big corps to employ methods to disrupt illegal copies of music & films, the Sony rootkit on some of their music CD's is one such example of big corporations hacking their customers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_BMG_copy_protection_rootk...
This is all a funny (i.e., sad) thing to have happened: the usual suspects have created a mythology that labor is a "marketplace" that optimizes according to naturalistic laws of supply and demand, which turns into a canard to attack employees. Now that employers are getting what they wish for (from high-end or niche employees, the only ones with any individual power), they really wish it was only an impersonal marketplace for them.

I guess the bigger point is that, when an abstraction gets old and popular enough, it becomes first-class and its specifics get obscured by time. So employment isn't a marketplace anymore, because won't somebody think of the employers! but we just keep the aspects of employees being cogs in the business and call it "culture." Which, of course, the dissenting replies have shown in spades: ask not what your company can do for you, ask what you can do for your company!
When I was a kid I once wrote L and R on my forearms with a marker both for remembering which was which and to learn their name in english. I think it worked, because I always think of the corresponding forearm when I have to tell left from right.

I use plaintext mail heavily. My only complaint is clients that don't support format=flowed[1] wrap text weirdly and make it look bad. The biggest ones are Outlook and the Windows 10 Mail app, though some webmail handles it poorly too. It gets bad when conversations start accumulating nested quotes.

I've found a quick tell if someone uses Outlook is if I send them a text/plain message, they'll send one back and there's no format=flowed. At that point I'll usually send them HTML mail.

> I am not sure what a solution is, after all these types of temp companies only exist to skirt existing labor laws, suggesting these laws may defy economics a bit too much.

The solution is to limit the labour pool or, in other words, limiting immigration.

> Pulling back from globalization would, but that is bad economics and bad for national security.

How is it bad economics? And what is your benchmark for success? Are you optimising for GDP, for quality of life, GDP per capita, what?

> Or perhaps we should just continue waiting until the rest of the world develops and the supply of labor finally becomes constrained.

Good luck with that, it'll take 200 years.

Split over a ~12 years that's a little over 1/2 of total R&D spending. However, much of this is capital expenditures on new battery manufacturing not just pure R&D.

Yes, Google can change the logic for auth, analytics, etc at any time and your local outdated copy will be useless, further I believe it's possible that Google returns different JS depending on the browser that's requesting it in order to keep payloads down and performance high.

Reading this, all I could think was "Welcome to job searching." Companies that pull some of these things are places you don't want to work for. Contact emails you and then ignores your replies without reason? Run away. Have a meeting scheduled and they don't show? Run away. Get interviewed but then get told you don't have enough experience? Run away.

Finding a job isn't just about getting paid the most money. You need to be in a job where you value the work and the people you work with. Because if I'm the one hiring for the role, if I detect that your only interest is in getting paid, I'm going to run away.
Well that's what happens technical debt is not properly accounted for. It can kill the company.

So the average programmer US wise makes something like 90k I believe (haven't checked in a few years).

You are saying if you ran a 1 man SAAS app and made 200k in a year, you would w2 yourself for 30k and take a 170k dividend?

I am not sure my accountant would like this plan. Taking say that 90k or 100k might be plausible, but 30% of the average wage?

(And at the 90k point.. FICA goes away past 110k anyway, so the savings is fairly minimal)
There are two kinds of sampling involved here: selecting whom to ask a question, and individuals selecting their responses. The random subset of the population is determined by their own choices, that lead them to never say anything useful. An attacker has no influence on this, so if their target is within that group, the attack can't succeed.
Do you have the "pay grade" to be able to make this assertion credibly? One cannot, in general, see the forest for the trees. This adage is not merely a put-down.

I think its important to look at this studies from a birds eye view and not get too bogged down in the details.

Is sitting for prolonged periods bad? Yes. Should you get up every 7.5 minutes to walk around? Probably over kill.

If you're the type that goes into work, sits until lunch, then walks to the lunch table, then returns to your desk until closing time - you could probably benefit from more moving.

My hope is that this study will encourage more work places to adopt standing desks, different working environments, and encourage activity through out the day.
You don't need a bread maker, just learn to make it by hand. It's really quite easy.

"The start of that collaboration was during the 2008-2009 financial crisis and Tesla, like most other US automakers at the time, needed money.

One thing a middle class friend of mine does is the following:

1. Buy house

2. Rent out rooms

3. Deduct all expenses that you'd have to pay anyway, utilities, internet, etc. as "business expenses".

4. Depreciate house

5. Renovate the house and depreciate the new fixtures/additions/etc.

6. Reappraise the house after a certain time and refinance.

7. Take money out after refinancing and buy more property.

Go back to (1).

It's pretty much foolproof. The tough part is being an owner-occupied landlord for a bit to get to the point where (6) is worth while. You also have to be in a hot market.

That's a pretty significant hedge.

Also, how effective are Google's processes against dishonest employees? It would not be hard for, say, the Chinese government to plant a mole in Google's security team. (Actually, the real nightmare scenario is a Chinese mole in Intel or Apple's hardware team.)

And you can automate the renewal process.
Yeah, basically all the three words give you is "somewhat? memorable unique identifiers". You get jack diddly squat in terms of routing information.

You want a lot of things out of a good address system.

1. Unique identifier. (ie, no duplicates)
2. Reasonably simple to remember. (ie, not lat-longs)
3. Simple levels of abstraction. ("Do you deliver to X?")
4. Recursive routing. (Navigating to one layer of the address, then another, should work reasonably well.)
5. Decentralized implementation. (Localities must be able to assign names while following a few reasonable rules.)

#1 and 2 aren't really the hard parts of the problem.
Self hosting will probably cause more downtime than if you are using a decent CDN. CDN is just one of many points of failure, I would expect there's a fine balancing act where you could achieve benefits of both.
Thank you, I like that analogy! Any feedback or comments, let me know.
There are tax shelters and loopholes for upper middle class workers. The whole tIRA -> Roth IRA conversion is a trivial way to avoid the Roth IRA income contribution cap. The 401(k) system is itself a tax shelter, and is a larger portion of middle class earners' salary than it is for those with tens of millions. Need I mention HSAs which are like triply-tax protected?
California Politicians Not Serious About Fixing Housing Crisis
I worked for Google a long time ago and it's almost certainly true that this still official company policy. The real question is whether all Google employees always act in accordance with that policy. That is a much dicier proposition.

It's also an open question how much data Google is compelled to share by law in the age of NSLs.
If you made a thousand of those 51% bets, you could deduct the losses from the wins, and you'd be back to profitable.
None of the static-site generators I looked at really competed with WordPress on a feature-by-feature basis.

WordPress is easy to set up, supports users and comments (if you want them) and has a lot of really nice features and plugins. WordPress is also slow and a pain in the neck to maintain, but I can understand why people might think the tradeoff is worth it.

I also run my site[1] using my own custom-built generator and I haven't looked back, but even I sometimes miss the ease-of-use that my old WordPress site provided.

There is evidence, but it's relatively weak from statistical significance point of view. This is also true of Saez's claims, such as if only we get rid of lower taxation on capital, things will improve for the 99%. I am not aware of any evidence that would support this prediction.
Yes, and that's usually worse than getting a fairly predictable number of hours from a temp agency. A temp agency will generally try to avoid asking an employees to be in multiple places at once. It's a pretty simple resource allocation problem.
My friends and family think my idea is crazy. Want to gather more opinions
I want to build a peer-to-peer search platform on the blockchain.

The experience would flow something like this: I type in a search query. I hit enter. I see a loading view that says 'Finding the right person.' In the background, the server is matching the search request against all of the profiles it finds relevant. Once a match is found, I'm taken to a chat view, where I'm able to message the other person in real-time. I can then ask more follow-up questions, and they can ask questions back to understand my context. Once the conversation is over, I see a rating view where I can rate the other person from 1-5 stars, and they do the same for me.

Whenever I tell a family member or close friend that I want to build this, they look at me, their eyes squint, and they say either, 'What? Why?' or 'Doesn't Google do search?'

Am I crazy? Or do they not see how powerful this could be?
I know I shouldn't be taking the bait but here goes anyway.

Smart union leaders today would be working on organizing and building relationship with peers in other countries. Fighting for US state backed monopolies is fighting on the old battleground with outdated weapons that may be immoral (state enforced monopolies often are).

> That just seems so paternalistic to me. You agree that those low on the totem-pole should have it better but handing them a method of direct-action, to collectively and directly make their work environments better doesn't make sense?

If were going to use the loaded word paternalistic, requiring people to be a union member is more paternalistic than giving them the option. Also I propose policies that (I think) would make work more valuable. Do you think it is fair that the Federal Reserve transfers and additional 2% of workers' pay to capitalists and politicians every year?

> This is actual nonsense. If you don't believe that making the middle and lower class better off is good for an economy, I don't know what to tell you.

Not my belief at all.
Cyrillic can't represent all of the sounds that Kazakh has. It borrows some symbols but even now it uses symbols that don't exist in Cyrillic. If you ever go to Kazakhstan you'll see that each official sign, such as in the Almaty metro, has 2-3 languages: Kazakh, Russian, and sometimes English.
