I use to work at a small health insurance company with a tech staff of 10 people. 1 persons entire job was to essentially managing the tape backups and getting them sent/picked up from offsite storage. This was a senior network administrator.
Linear Regression from Scratch in Python
<nod> I've read "The Happiness Hypothesis", which explores the same concept - the analogy it uses is that our subconscious mind is like an elephant, our conscious mind its rider. If the elephant doesn't have much of an opinion about where it should be going, the rider can guide it. But if the elephant wants to go one way, the rider can't do much about it.

(Though the rider can, slowly over time, train the elephant in certain things. But that's not in-the-moment control.)

IIRC - it's been a while since I read it - part of the book's point is that the whole system of elephant + rider is "us", even though the conscious POV is just the rider.

Are you referring to the issues I had getting it working prior to my workaround script?

I would love to know as well. I mentioned it somewhere, but during boot, there are a few cryptic Broadcom driver errors which a Google search turned up little to know info on. It's hard to say, but it seems like something in the system has to stabilize before everything works.
What I enjoyed the most about this question: you got a right and left answer. The right said the market will fix it by collapsing the loan market. The left said govermnet caps and management.

edit- spelling load -> loan.

Apple is not without sin here. Spotlight is notorious for not finding files that are currently visible in a Finder window because the mdfind index didn't get updated properly. You can rebuild the mdfind index with a terminal command but that's too obscure for non-experts and it takes hours.
Endowment funds and administration.
If it includes room and board and some insurance plan, $1300 a month isn't bad? My brother had a something like that at his university and ended up saving most of it because you really don't have a lot else to spend it on.

Sure, I wouldn't start a family on that, but it far surpasses what I lived off of right after college.

EDIT: It looks like the article was about people late in their careers. I was assuming that adjunct faculty positions were only entry level or for grad students.

Many courses and students benefit from learning in person across many subjects, CS included. Sometimes it's the push they need, sometimes it's the value their classmates bring, sometimes it's the value the professor brings.

Online courses are great, but they don't replace everything. I don't think the future of universities is bleak. The explanations above considering that we have a surplus of Ph.D.'s seems to be a lot more likely of a cause to this. Simple supply and demand.
> most universities have moved to act more and more like for-profit entities.

At my alum mater, the state cut support to the state universities to practically nothing. Voters saw how much money the big universities were making on college football. They consistently voted to cut the money to the university system.

Only problem? Most state supported universities did not have a football program.

My university:

* turned to Chinese/Indian nationals (no financial aid/full price)

* raised everyone's tuition (went from low-cost school to higher-end)

* raised other fees

My university is in a part of the US that has low cost of living. So at the very least, the profs are unlikely to be homeless - yes even at the wages specified.
I completely agree with your comment.

It seems like most people here are bashing on this in one way or another. People talking about Cython, people talking about how they don't even use Python anymore, etc. etc.
This makes me super sad, because this is seriously one of the most technically amazing projects I have seen in several years. It is a labor of love by one single guy who frequently posts status updates where he's accomplished some new thing that was thought to be impossible.

It's really an inspiring story of somebody who isn't stopped by the haters, building something that he wants, that lots of people have told him is impossible or useless, but yet he still continues to make steady progress plugging away at it.

I really used to identify with the average commenter on this site, and feel that there was really a time when something like this would be truly understood and appreciated... But now, rather than some Python expert explaining how incredible this is, or some compiler wizard spotting this, being interested and offering to help we have lots of sniping from uninformed people who just seem to be annoyed that this won't magically speed up their Python now

Can we have a technical deep-dive on what this guy's accomplished? A few clever curious hackers tearing about the code spotting all the brilliance and sharing bits of it with us with commentary? No. Let's just all go on and on about how we should just rewrite everything in Rust. Again.
There are things in life that are "beyond disgusting", but this age-old tradition going back to as long as there have been marriages scarcely makes that cut. Chomping at the bit and flying off the handle is hardly going to get you anywhere.

Also, in two comments, you've failed to address the central point of the OP: What if the guy has lower standards for cleanliness? What if he doesn't mind the odd gift box not kept away for two days? The OP is saying that the woman seems not to have paused to wonder about whether they agree on the fundamental standards for "how much effort is worth putting into our living spaces"

Mind you, I lean towards your side of the argument. I grew up witnessing what the woman perfectly described: there are millions of tasks that women quietly do that men demand that they be applauded for. My parents are definitely in that mould.
Thanks! Hope it works out for you. If so, I'll update the article to indicate it applies to RPi 3 as well (I don't have one to test with myself.)
Many people earn income in bitcoin or cryptocurrency and would consider the US dollar the poor investment or purchase.

It is all a matter of perspective which simple wasn't apparent because there weren't options a decade ago.
The chart in the article essentially confirms your premise. It shows no decline; steady increase in tape shipments over time.
Only men are sexist? Are you serious?
> simply don't communicate with each other.

It takes two to communicate. That's the real emotional labour in the article: trying to communicate when the other party isn't listening.
Show HN: An AR app for seeing different size TVs in your house
You're missing the point.

> In his mind, he was doing the thing I had most wanted—giving me sparkling bathrooms without having to do it myself. Which is why he was frustrated when I ungratefully passed by, not looking at his handiwork as I put away his shoes, shirt and socks that had been left on the floor.

It's not about taking an equal share in the "emotional labor". It's about her not communicating proper intent, treating effort "ungratefully" and ultimately being disappointed for not receiving what was wanted.

She wanted:

> The gift, for me, was not so much in the cleaning itself but the fact that for once I would not be in charge of the household office work. I would not have to make the calls, get multiple quotes, research and vet each service, arrange payment and schedule the appointment.

but she asked for:

> one thing: a house cleaning service.

That's the stereotypical "women don't say what they think".
Just like a dirty bathroom is disgusting? The article also illustrates that people have different subjective standards for disgusting. What you find disgusting and beyond the pale is something I find insightful, subtle and interestingly wrong.

To argue against things, you need to do more than call the thing disgusting.
This is an interesting article on expectations of thoughtfulness, that are valid.

In addition to emotional labour, a person who is out-giving is dedicating a fixed amount of their limited attention to keep things in mind that could go elsewhere.

Using the example of the article, if two people living together on their own were to live on their own, they would likely be more thoughtful and aware.

Co-habiting has an strange effect, you start doing things you didn't do before, and stop doing things you used to. Some of it is based around preferences and habits - and some feel if you think something should happen badly enough (if someone always leaves the lights on), maybe you should do it.

Emotional intelligence, thoughtfulness, and pro-actively thinking of needs instead of being asked to do things is something anyone values when they are relied upon in an ongoing manner.

That's some hilarious hypocrisy.
This is just smoke and mirrors. China needs NK as a communist buffer and as a equalizer against Japan and South Korea(regional competitors).Without China’s covert and overt help NK would not have gotten to where it is now. Chinese play both sides.
It's possible Betsy Devoss has something to do with it; students always knew they were giving an incomprehensible amount of money to monstrous vultures by paying back their loans, but this time it's impossible to ignore that fact with her at the head of dept -- millennials loathe her.

Perhaps more and more students are simply refusing to pay, taking the free college they should have been given by economic force.
You might be better off just throwing your college fund into bitcoin. The financial risk is about the same at this point.

In my experience, you're wrong. See how that works? My wife simply doesn't care as strongly about the house as I do; nor about maintaining her car. Or family finances, grocery shopping, laundry, etc etc. For the first few years of our marriage, this was an issue. Then I learned that it was "my" issue to deal with. I had communicated as much as I could, and she didn't have the same expectations. So we compromised; she doesn't get mad when I stress about something, and I don't feel like it's her job to make me happy and cater to every feeling I have.

So that's my anecdote. Your comment is basically sexist blather.
"shake my head"
In fact, the conventional wisdom these days seems increasingly to be that you should go to a top-tier law school or just not bother. And that seems to be becoming fairly common advice for MBAs as well, although that's not as cut and tried because MBAs cover a wider range of programs than law degrees do.
"Argue in good faith!"

The reason I posted is that you did not seem to be. People kept giving you reasons, and you basically discarded them with "But that's not the reason I'm looking for"... or something like that. I'm not even sure how to accurately characterize it. But you definitely seemed to be just unilaterally dismissing the people trying to help you understand and putting no effort into understanding what they were saying. Your second paragraph of this very post reads like that once again.

If that is not the case, well, consider this useful feedback then.
For Bernie to work, we have to restructure education to be more from the 1980s and 1970s. You won't have private rooms with private baths. You won't have school creating new pool and phsycial fitness megaplexes. You will have 2-4 people per room with a common shower.

I'm not saying this is wrong. I'm saying that the quality of life will have to go down. When you picture a Bernie school, you need to picture Animal House. School becomes focused on school. Anything else the students have to come up with.
No, they're arguing that using a single anecdote which may not be representative. Coupled with the placement of that in the title of th article, it's a framing anecdote that's used to shock the reader into thinking the problem is more dire than it is (the situation is bad, but I claim that few academics are becoming sex workers to remain as academics).
She doesn't have a point other than "I want more help around the house and my husband won't listen".

That's not a failing of anything other than the husband's ability to listen and her ability to be upfront with her expectations.

Income breakdown is irrelevant.
I have an idea. Corn farmers aren't making money, so let's subsidize corn farming to help them make money. Of course, that will lead to a worse oversupply, but hey, it's been working so far, right?
Whether it is blockchain or not, they will need infrastructure to process electronic payments. The last time I went to Japan I noticed a real lack of payment infrastructure that is common in the US (this may have changed in the past few years). In the US we have vending machines, subway ticket kiosks, parking meters all with credit card slots. Also, nearly every business accepts credit cards, from restaurants, hotels, and stores to farmers markets. When I stayed at a hotel in Japan I had to pay upfront in cash, pay for nearly every meal in cash, carry coins for vending machines, taxis and subways. At the time these were all things I would have used a card for in the US. At the very least they will have to get this infrastructure in place first before moving away from cash.

It doesn't include room and board. It may include health insurance but you're going to pay your monthly fees out of the stipend.
RedAwning Acquires VaycayHero
I worked in a grocery store about 5 years ago and the machines went down. We used the impression machine and everything was fine.

It may break some rule, but there's no reason you can't just write all the information down. That's ultimately just a slower version of what the impression machine does.
FWIW I wrote 6 articles about expression parsing / Pratt parsing here:

http://www.oilshell.org/blog/2017/03/31.html

(and there is an update about the Shunting Yard algorithm, which is common but not mentioned in the OP. Ritchie's C compiler used it.)

Also, the original article is nice in some ways, but it feels like it treats all the parsing techniques as being on equal footing in practice. It feels a little like a college intro to parsing course rather than something for experienced programmers.

In reality you will see these techniques overwhelmingly:

- Hand-written recursive descent parsers, possibly with Pratt parsing/precedence climbing for expressions (Clang, GCC, v8, Lua, etc.)

- Yacc style LR grammars, but often with loads of code in semantic actions (Ruby, R, bash, Awk, early JavaScript implementations, sqlite and I think most SQL dialects)

- Occasionally you will see LL parsing (ANTLR, Python).

The rest of the techniques you'll see pretty rarely... I saw parser combinators in ShellCheck, but not in any implementations of "production" programming languages. (I looked at at least 20, most of them in C or C++.)
I'm a former academic. But I made a choice that all these folks can also make if they choose; I left. There are tradeoffs to any career path, and the huge glut of folks attempting to get a job in academia (even these bad adjunct jobs) are a great indication that the tradeoffs aren't particularly bad.

Similarly, the professors you describe have low wages because their compensation takes other forms (freedom and security). To understand this, ask an insurance company for the price of an annuity with payout equal to a tenured professor's wage + benefits. Tenure isn't cheap.
Exactly. Between Apple and Android/Samsung there is broad support for this payment method across consumer devices.

My argument is not "merchant's shouldn't support chip-and-PIN." It's a fine fallback method. I'm just surprised Krebs mentioned that instead of Apple Pay.
> Socks laying on the floor doesn't affect people's health.

You're missing the point. She mentions that the clean house isn't the goal, the clean house would "simply be a bonus"

> complaining about her partner not telepathically reading her mind to "sense" her completely arbitrary standards

She also makes the point that she has told him what she wants.
They were looking at doing this at my last job (small private university).

We already outsourced custodial and food service. Do student accounts and financial aid really define us as a university? Are they part of our core competency? Do we do them particularly well relative to competitors?

Of course not. So why not outsource them?
Graduate stipends almost never include room and board, as far as I know. This may be different if you're in a high-rent area (UCLA, Stanford, NYU, etc), but in general, your rent comes out of that $1300.

They do currently include decent health insurance, at least. No dental/vision, obviously.
I wouldn't say it's totally insubstantial. The economy is growing at some of the fastest rates we've seen since the beginning of the 21st Century. At the same time, delinquency rates are continuing to rise. If young people are still falling behind when times are "good" what happens to them during the next recession?
I don't think it's nitpicking if the entire thesis of the article is based around a concept that has nothing to do with the article.

Emotion itself is a communication platform and many times how you feel is not so easily communicated in ways that can be easily worked out.
Unfortunately modular phones haven't become a thing yet. Google tried that with Ara, but it's in indefinite hiatus.
Of course, the next problem with making phones modular like that is a lack of standards. One developer makes the modules and keeps others from making them, thus entering the walled garden model.
Interesting to note grad students. My university found they could increase income by taking in more international students, but when those same students wanted paid GTA jobs, they had to find a way to pay for it. So they did what all universities do: They made the undergraduates pay for it, by requiring those students take paid "labs" for classes that never before had labs, for no course credit.
So, the fact that people are over-paying for bitcoin by 2-3x its market price suggests to you that demand will rapidly decrease?

can you please connect that with logic?
I hate to say that, but I just seem to have broken it. Here's how: I put 0.1 in A1, 0.2 in A2 and =A1+A2 in B1. Now B1 displays "=A1+A2" instead of the result.

For the university "market", the only game in town is prestige, which teaching quality plays into very little, if at all.
Marketing. By marketing, I mean research grants, sports team equipment and training, and anything else that increases the prestige of the school (research sometimes leads to patents for the school, so there's additional benefit to that). You have to attract students willing to pay and good teachers and researchers to attract more students. The entire market is reputation based to the point where reputation is often (usually?) more important than results.

Maybe he's never going to give a shit because her expectations are just too high. American women have sky high expectations.
I think they don't "say what they really think" because it's hard work.

I hate gifts and would rather receive cash for a present, but if I were the sort of person who wanted a specific gift I would find it annoying to have to justify it, explain what the gift really means to me on a deep level, and so on.

That sort of "emotional labor" might in fact be the reason I dislike gifts, now that I think about it.
Right, serious injury would probably lose you the job entirely.
A lot of web UIs only show a refresh button if something goes wrong. I think this makes a lot of sense, as it is really just a placebo if the app already knows that the data is up to date (for example, if it has an active websocket connection for maintaining state).

Of course, it helps that the browsers all have builtin refresh buttons too.

You caught me off-guard a bit saying my post is sexist. To be clear I am NOT saying that this is how things are in all relationships, or how things should be. I'm very much in the camp of partners needing to be full partners, and for open and health communication.

I'm also not blind to the fact that there are still some deeply ingrained stereotypes, however subtle, about gender roles in our society, and I'm trying, perhaps poorly, to rephrase some points from the article (and others like it), in which the author very clearly names this: "the mental load bore almost exclusively by women."

This isn't a personal attack on you or your relationship. On the contrary, it sounds like you have a pretty healthy relationship, and I'm happy for you!

But the fact that this concept resonates with many people though, men and women, probably means there is something here that warrants more conversation for a lot of people, even if it isn't something that is a problem in your particular relationship.
There is utility in BTC thats why im putting 1-2$ value on it.

4000$ + per one BTC is pure insanity that will soon end badly for most "speculators".

There is nothing new under the sun. Go back to the tulips and many booms and busts after. Its happening with BTC now. And just like all the others it will end the same.
