I highly disagree. And no, I don't fall into one of those categories; I'm just not willing to put up with random and arbitrary bullshit. Which is what those things are. Yes, I could operate under all those conditions. I choose not to, because those conditions suck ass.

While someone must be eliminated, you need to ask yourself why you're selecting for those who would opt to work under random and arbitrary bullshit when they don't have to.
Can Apple Reinvent the QR Code?
Now that iPhones (with the latest iOS update) can scan QR code right from the camera app, do you think QR code might gain popularity in the US?

Before the iOS 11 update, iPhone users needed a third-party app or Google Chrome's secret option via 3D touch to read QR codes. Now, you can just point the camera to a code and you have it scanned effortlessly.

What do you guys think?
How do you define "important"?

Yes, but you don't add the negation of net exports (which is a positive number), you add the net exports, which have a negative value.

If you want to deal with operations only on positive numbers, you subtract the net imports instead of adding net exports when the country is a net importer like the US, but there is no case where it makes sense to say that net exports are subtracted in the calculation of GDP.

And what came of the Arab Spring and its western cousin, Occupy Wall Street? Pretty much nothing, excluding moderate success in Tunisia. They were all crushed, either by the state itself, or through foreign intervention.
The config is pretty straight forward once you understand how it all works. The docs have example configs for anything you need. Specify an entry point, add some loaders, and maybe a plugin or two, what are you stuck on?
Yeah, but birth rates have fallen below replacement in huge swaths of the world. And Pakistan is the only country outside of Africa that has fertility rates above 3 children per women. Which means that, if the demographic transition continues, the entire world except for Africa will be at below replacement fertility in several decades. Population can continue growing for a while after birth rates fall below replacement, but the writing is on the wall: if Africa can modernize, then the world population will start declining.

Still no first-class SFTP support. Doesn't look like I'll try VS Code until at least 2019.
Yeah that was really excellent application and it is a shame it didn't have time to show all the benefits it can provide.

Centrally planned economies had most to benefit from such systems as it could create feedback loops based on economic indicators, how to optimally scale up economy.

Valispace | WebDeveloper | Lisbon, Portugal, Europe | ONSITE

tl;dr

- Product: Github for Hardware
- Stack: Django, Django Channels, Python, Bootstrap, jQuery
- Team: small, growing, technical founders, fast-paced
- Customers: AIRBUS, Gomspace, Ripple,... (companies building rockets, satellites and planes)

long version:

Valispace is a browser-based software that enables engineers to collaboratively design better satellites, rockets and other complex hardware products.

At Valispace, we want to transform the collaborative engineering of complex hardware, such as satellites, power plants or autonomous vehicles. Managing this growing complexity with Excel spreadsheets and emails has reached its limit and it's showing, for example, in cost and schedule overruns.

Valispace overcomes this by harnessing the power of web technologies: We are building a browser-based data storage and collaboration software and API. Our ambition is to become the GitHub of hardware engineering: allowing engineers and designers worldwide to work together in a streamlined way, much as git has enabled efficient collaboration on software.

I'm sorry, but that just tells me you've never been in that kind of situation. Which tells me that you lack empathy for other people.
checking the description, I think it is now google translate.
That's partly because railroads in the Soviet Union were of a different gauge then those in Europe - and because the Soviets, as much as they could, pursued a Russian classic - scorched-earth policy.

Mechanized armies needed enormous amounts of supplies. If you can't transport them by rail, and you don't have the diesel to run trucks (the only source of oil the Germans had access to was Romania,) you have to do it by horse.
Consider that you're interviewing at 20 companies: What if they all did this? That's 40 hours, or an entire work week of unpaid work, for the chance at getting to the next round. Seems unreasonable to me.
>> Very few things grind my gears more than academic fat cats whining about losing their slaves to those who make slaves lives better.

It's kind of strange to hear academics described as "fat cats", especially if they're being compared to, say, managers in Google or Facebook.

Also, I'm not sure where your experience comes from but in the UK PhD students are anything but slaves.

Maybe you're thinking of grad students in the US? I hear the situation is a bit different there. From my understanding, US grad students are forced to do a lot of unpaid work? This is not the case in the UK, as far as I can tell (I'm just starting a PhD).
I've accumulated so much material about interviewing I've thought about writing a book. No one would read it, of course, because everyone thinks they're an expert at it already.

In my experience, 9 out of 10 interviewers are terrible. They come up with assumptions before talking to a candidate, then come up with even more assumptions during the interview. These assumptions are almost always unchecked, meaning that they never ask a single question to verify their guesswork.

Perhaps the most critical failure, which this article touches on, is that people can't adequately describe why their hiring successes were successes and why their hiring failures were failures. If they did, they'd understand just how many of their interview process (such as it is) is a crapshoot. They have no conscious understanding of what it takes to be successful at their company, because they've never thought about it in any serious way.

They ask for code samples, but never look at them. What's really important is that you know all of their current technologies and use them in exactly the way that they do currently. So to determine that they sometimes give out poorly-conceived coding assignments that are either testing something completely irrelevant or are so large in scope that you are basically rebuilding half their product.

They ghost candidates, even candidates that have gone through multiple rounds of interviews, forgetting that people who interact with their company go out into the world and form opinions and things to say about them. This is especially true of candidates who are really engaged with your company's mission. (Besides, it's just rude.)

The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior, except when being interviewed, where anything you accomplished at a previous company is viewed with the detached impatience of someone eager for you to stop talking so long so they can get to their questions. Listening to what people actually say, instead of just your impression of what they say, means listening to the motives, emotions, and body language surrounding what they're saying and asking questions that get at the heart of those. It's the single most effective interviewing method, but almost no one does it.

Because I hire others, when I am being interviewed, a popular question is "How do I hire?" Everyone is looking for a solution with the appearance of a rigorous methodology. If I wrote that book, I'd have to sell a snake oil solution that guarantees great hires, because no one wants to hear the reality: that it requires experience, empathy, and active listening, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution for each person. People don't like nuance; they want a simple, step-by-step guide, not some amorphous process that might take a lot of self-work.
Yeah sorry the particular page I linked to is from 2008 and is super broken. The actual morning brief these days looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/ssfBU
You will be mistaken to consider USSR before Stalin to be much milder.

It did not have any reservations before expropriating crops from peasants and then killing said peasants with chemical weapons when they uprisen. Meanwhile in cities OGPU will happily shot you after a trial by three people, or even without one.

Leo Trosky, who is still unfortunately sometimes considered as "Stalin done right", reasoned like this:

Communists in power have to extract production from workers whether they like it or not, and maybe in the future the socialist state with advance to the condition where these workers will no longer feel expropriated. But until then, just use force.
> Rather you are managing symptoms and doing nothing about the cause.

Which is also what a licensed MD does when he/she puts you on a proton pump inhibitor.
There's a difference to getting your feelings hurt and expecting a little decency. A company the solicits applications should definitely be held to the later.
They did. Partially. I use nats-streaming in Production. It still does not have real “clustering” solution, but for my small scale I’m able to manage ~7-10k messages per second. Which is fine for many companies.
Well, he coined the term alt-right. Maybe he's not the most important figure, that was just my best guess.

My point is about use of the term. In particular, the way it's fuzzy, and attributing ethnonationalism to people who are civic nationalists.
This is a huge deal for anyone working in this space:

"Patent information accessibility is critical for examining new patents, informing public policy decisions, managing corporate investment in intellectual property, and promoting future scientific innovation. The growing number of available patent data sources means researchers often spend more time downloading, parsing, loading, syncing and managing local databases than conducting analysis. With these new datasets, researchers and companies can access the data they need from multiple sources in one place, thus spending more time on analysis than data preparation."
> Would anyone buy an iPhone that starts at $1500 or $2000?

Probably, yeah. It doesn't seem like people mind paying $1000. It would just make it even more of a status symbol.

Are iPhones a Veblen good?
