Move. That's what I did. I was stuck in a corporate fortune 500 world of meetings, unrealistic deadlines, frequent random layoffs, technical jobs being a cost center, etc. The metropolitan area was a bad job market too and I was interviewing for a couple years.

The further you move up in an organization like that, the less marketable skills and experience you will end up with. And higher pay locks those golden handcuffs.

I found a job in a different state that is growing economically, sold the house and moved. Sure it is tough on everyone in the family to leave behind friends, family and the kids go through periods of time where they are bummed.

The alternative is just waiting it out while your skills vanish and you become less marketable. My thought process was I wanted to be in control and not wait to be laid off which would be worst case scenario and would require moving.

Wrong thread? Nothing you wrote has any relationship with what GP commented on.
That was also my thought, people didn't really want to believe it though when I said "the shit on the street is quite likely not from an animal...".

After a walk around SoMa, I lost what the appeal of working there was to be honest. The touristy parts of the city are great, but you hear all this talk about the offices and startup culture around that area, but one block over from Twitter HQ and there's a rampant homeless issue with people doing all kinds of stuff in full daylight.
Chrome is at around 60% of desktop user agents, which is obviously significant but nothing on the scale of what IE was in the 90s. What's more, Chrome's market share plummets massively when you take other devices into account. So comparing Chrome to IE is a little premature when talking about browser monopolies.

Next lets look at the actual technology we're complaining about. ActiveX wasn't just an Internet Explorer-only feature, it was Windows only as well. Furthermore it wasn't the only feature in IE that wasn't supported on other browsers (VBScript, JScript, WebForms†, different support for HTML and CSS, etc). Where as Chrome doesn't diverge from other browsers all that significantly in comparison.

Chromes changes could be compared better to Internet Explorer with regards to how IE4 changed the way frames were used (inc the addition of iframes). This was really annoying as a developer but actually these changes were for the better - particularly the iframe - and eventually those features landed in other browsers. Including Netscape Communicator.

The W3C are pretty glacial at updating their specs so it's often required browsers taking things into their own hands, eg the browser CSS prefixes. Developers would moan about having to add lots of extra junk to their code just to get new features to work but it was the price to pay for having access to new features that hadn't landed in the various web specifications. So as much as they would moan about vendor prefixes, they'd welcome browsers extending the specification.

The above paragraph wasn't all that long ago and the difference between then and now was that Chrome, Firefox and Opera were all at it with IE still playing catch up with regards to compliance; but now the browser market has consolidated where Chrome (read: Blink) has absorbed Opera, IE has largely died off and Firefox is sadly slowly falling out of fashion. So people are paranoid Google might abuse their advantage. However I really cannot see that happen - or at least not with regards to Chrome. Not only is Chrome's market share small compared to IE in the 90s / early 00s but also the web is viewed from a multitude of different devices. As someone who has managed online shops, games and other popular web-based services I can testify that product owners do NOT want to lose business from portable devices. If just because some product owners are so technologically inept that their primary computing device outside of the office is an iPad and/or their business iPhone.

† I think it was called. But basically it was their 90s tech for writing apps that looked like Win Forms.
I don't see why you gloss over the "there would be fewer of them" problem with your reasoning. How is this line of thought supposed to move the needle on homelessness in SF? You're expecting them to just go away because they can't find jobs?

"premature profitability"? I think it's easy to sit on the outside of a business and judge it smugly, but considering that the estimated net worth of the founder is north of $50mil (https://www.fundera.com/blog/successful-entrepreneurs), I don't think he would say that there is anything wrong with their "premature profitability".

Maybe there is mismanagement, or poor decisions, or just not staying ahead of trends in the market - but putting millions of dollars into the pockets of the business owners is the intent of all businesses. Knocking that as "premature profitability" seems silly
Yes, it's complete FUD. It's also moot, because it really doesn't matter much whats in ME, ME just needs to not exist. The primary reason for choosing MINIX is memory footprint and reliability, additionally GNU is never popular for proprietary blobs like this... it would actually harm users with ME's current strategy if you think about it, GNU forces them to publish their likely buggy striped down version of linux, yet only intel can sign the firmware, so users are helpless and malicious people can find bugs in the code while intel sits on their hands.

I don't find it hard to believe that Minix drivers are slow and primitive... Minix is not widely used like Linux, that doesn't really mean anything more than that, it's an amazing kernel and there is no better choice for an embedded system that you can't afford to fail and require user intervention.

I guess the TL;DR is that Minix was the right system for the job, it's just that the job was unfortunately pure evil, so arguing about Minix is stupid.

Natural Language Processing with Scala
You need only think about the axioms under which the traditional S/D graph holds true, to realize labor likely represents a distorted market.

1) Goods are fungible (spend 5 minutes interviewing for technology and come back and try to defend this one)

2) There exists "perfect" competition (that is to say any supplier can enter or exit the market, and there's full knowledge on the marginal utility of all goods)

The nature of labor muddies these waters and the world turns out to be a lot more complicated than econ 101 (notice that those axioms are almost never true regardless of market).
I'm on the same boat as you, 26 and 3 years exp. A couple of months ago I went to an interview and the IT Director told me one of the best advices I've got carreer wise; She told me to be clear about what I want for me in the future, and where do I see my self/want to be in 10 years.

With this in mind, you can start taking actions towards that goal and trying to get close to it each day.

I'm applying this right now and it has been helpful, since I already know what I want to be and where do I want to be, so I'm working towards that. Also dedication and setting priorities, giving up and sacrificing stuff that get me out of my path for stuff that bring me closer.

Hope this helps.
Look, friend, I'm not trying to be argumentative to be a troll or anything. I get that you think that this is a super serious issue. I do to, but you have to admit that getting Minix and the ME out of PC CPU's won't really stop cops from shooting unarmed black men, or stop proliferation of cheap small arms in conflict zones, or the lack of clean water...I won't keep beating the drum.

I'm also not an SJW or whatever. I'm just saying that things that can be very important to us...that we think will have a tremendous impact on the future...those things aren't universal issues. Maybe it's just my lack of understanding of where you are coming from to see how this would be a major component of getting to a peaceful and clean world. If so, I would like to hear more. Thanks.

Ruby creator 'Matz': How emacs changed my life
There were a lot of factors, but I think aesthetics was a major component. The iPhone was a lot more than one more addition to the smart phone wars. IMO it created a product class for a bunch of consumers who probably never would've bought a blackberry or palm pilot. For a lot of reasons, some related to timing and others related to design. But a big component was the marketing, and aesthetics was a big reason for the success of the marketing.

So far, it doesn't look like you can do anything about it. Of course you can change everything with a hard fork but as this time it doesn't compromise the move to PoS, I don't think a hard fork will be the favored solution.

But this time, there is no deadline, so it can be discussed thoroughly.

> If I had a friend and loved him because of the benefits which this brought me and because of getting my own way, then it would not be my friend that I loved but myself. I should love my friend on account of his own goodness and virtues and account of all that he is in himself. Only if I love my friend in this way do I love him properly.

> If a person loves only one other person and is indifferent to all others, his love is not love but a symbiotic attachment, or an enlarged egotism. Yet most people believe that love is constituted by the object, not by the faculty. In fact, they even believe that it is proof of the intensity of their love when they do not love anybody except the "loved" person. [..] Because one does not see that love is an activity, a power of the soul, one believes that all that is necessary to find is the right object - and that everything goes by itself afterward. This attitude can be compared to that of the man who wants to paint but who, instead of learning the art, claims that he just has to wait for the right object - and that he will paint beautifully when he finds it.

The ME has full control of the hardware and could have wiped the hard drive before bricking the machine.

Yep, if you're a cute almost 30 dude with 20-ish looks applying, say, to a CTO position in a startup otherwise consisting of college kids... AKA my situation except I'm not looking right now. Yeah, I'd say there are situations when being judged by your looks gives you an advantage. That said, I didn't hunt a job for a long while and almost never in the Western countries (sending your CV to places that offer visa/relocation and never getting contacted doesn't really count) so maybe I don't know some local specifics, don't quote me on this.
I think the killer feature for a lot of developers when Rails came around was the ORM. IIRC AolServer didn't have an equivalent to ActiveRecord, and never having to touch SQL or know a lot about database design was a big boon for the kind of developer who got into RoR. The rest was mostly more magical PHP.
I am wondering what exactly has been the point of having this code separated in this "library" in the first place, instead of just duplicating the code for each owner of a multisig wallet. It can't be to ease the update process of the core multisig code (since the library is just as non-updatable as any other contract), which otherwise is a typical reason for separating stuff into shared libraries.

Has this extra layer of complexity really been injected just to save some bytes on the blockchain?
time to fork it and send a PR!
And not just immigration laws, but family ties, moving expenses, higher rents, etc, even within a country. There are a number of reasons it's harder to move labor than capital.
Isn't kind of weird that what is considered good aesthetic is removal of (visual) features? Why is that considered good looking?

If you take it to its extreme conclusion, the best environment to live in from an aesthetic perspective would be a big white box with each side being made up of a material that changes its hardness based on what you want to do (lie down to sleep and becomes soft, walk on it, becomes hard, sit on a corner and becomes slightly soft on the floor with very soft walls) and all your communication and entertainment is done via floating images that materialize at a comfortable distance from your face so you can talk with your peers, watch videos, holograms and whatever else. Getting outside would have a part of the wall disintegrate (we'd call that a door, for historical reasons), although "outside" would now just be an aesthetically pleasing sea of white featureless cubes.
That was an awesome breakdown. I've never heard Marxism described quite that way...but frankly, the only things I've ever heard about Marxism are the absolutely ludicrous things said by the right and the stuff I've found on my own. Certainly not a great deal of exposure.
My slightly tongue-in-cheek take is that Apple engineers and designers must have extremely tiny hands. One of my colleagues got one of the new 13' MBPs recently; I can't even get my hands to fit on the home row.
For what it's worth, Apple released some devices (iPod touch I think) with the camera-wart when Jobs was still around.

But I agree, lately I don't like what they do. My favorite is still the iPhone 5.

Agreed. I don't think that cigarettes will work harder or gain more skills if they are more expensive.
Your argument would be more convincing if brought as falsifiable science-style theory.

In its current humanities-style argumentative form, you somewhat contradict yourself: either your argument holds power, then why do you dismiss this family of arguments as inferior? Or your argument doesn't hold power, then why would you expect us (or even yourself) to be convinced?
I disagree. I never really used anything but LaTeX/XeLaTeX to generate my CVs but I've seen what people make in text processors and it usually sucks. On the other hand, I agree, open source templates are rarely the best — and unless they are very generic I'd suggest not to use them verbatim. You don't want your CV to look like the other 50 in the pile (yet you don't want it to look too weird either).

Opal is actually pretty nice and usable as a JS transpiler already. I suspect they'll be targeting WASM at some point.

https://blog.ethcore.io/the-multi-sig-hack-a-postmortem/ evades that question under the paragraph "Was the wallet not audited?".

If they used a library instead of a contract, this wouldn't have been possible. I hope they had a reason to use a contract otherwise they clearly have noone else to blame this time.

To be honest, that's a surprisingly poor article from Noahpinion.

The Economics 101 explanation for immigration not depressing wages is that it increases labour demand as well as labour supply (which is of course a well established fact). Shift the labour demand curve and you can make the labour supply curve as inelastic as you like (he appears to concede that in the follow up blog). I wouldn't expect any more than 1 mark out of 5 for answering an actual Economics 101 term paper and not acknowledging that effect.

> I have run across this before, when companies have told me that they hate the GPL because they are not keen on spending a lot of time, energy, and money modifying some piece of code, only to be required to give it to their competitors for free.

Nonsense; the GPL does not require that one's competitors receive code, but rather one's users. It further requires that one may not prevent them from giving the code to others, with the same rights.

Thanks to the BSD, Intel's users are unable to patch, modify or extend the hardware & software they have bought.

I think that I've demonstrated that the freedom has not accrued to users but rather to Intel.
Is that 45% marginal? Because the post you reply to talks about 40% of their income i.e. not the marginal rate.

I sometimes wonder if it would substantially change the tax conversation if everyone understood what a marginal tax rate was.
Trust is an important aspect. Especially at scale. If you were designing a large scale energy trading platform for example, that is trading hundreds of million or billions of dollars a day, a centralised database controlled by a third party is prone to corruption - when you get to that level of wealth, it’s basically guaranteed.

Or what about recording tax documents, or political promises, storing them on an immutable chain that’s unhackable (to the point that once it’s on chain the only way to modify it is to hack every copy on every node)

These are very large scale problems, and there’s lots of uses where databases will do just fine, but I see the key benefits as decentralised trust
Objects are amoral. When humans create structures in which they align themselves with immoral incentives, they're being immoral. The failure to be good is being evil in my books; there is no neutrality and there is no mediocrity, there is doing your part or guilt.

And no, nobody is 100% innocent and nobody is 100% guilty. Nobody made themselves out of nothing. Everybody started out as a helpless baby and the range of experiences one can get exposed to before even being able to attempt defend oneself is vast. But so what if every abuser got abused in some way or another, or was withheld some crucial things needed for development? Then don't hate them, but absolutely stop them.
