Which makes sense, because you can still run an iPhone without ever logging in to iCloud. It's extremely limiting, but it does work.

I agree that heavy commenting can be a code smell
This writeup made me chuckle, because we've all had to jump through those hoops in our career. The fact of the matter is, that most of those other professional industries have such a higher bar to getting hired. So much dedication, years of work, and trying your damnedest just to meat the right person who can make your career.

The same is also true for good software jobs, but at least we have the option to dance like a monkey for the chance to get a job. I prefer that to the reality of having to know someone to even get my resume looked at.

Three Uber security managers resign after CEO criticizes practices
Oh, that explains why it's so weird. I thought it was some kind of extra-terse blog until I saw your comment.

I'm not really talking about coreutils at all at this point, and neither are you. You're talking about shell features. And I can't speculate on how using jq is generally applicable, but I can give you an example of how to use it in a particular situation.
My motto is: "Never not wearing a hoodie." It's actually gotten to a point where I find it physically (and mentally) very taxing when I wear something else. Luckily, Finnish summers are cold enough so I can keep wearing my precious hoodies all year long. I used to wear various skate brand hoodies (like Enjoi), but nowadays my goto brand is Superdry.

Oh yeah, and jeans. I prefer Diesel ones, but I'm not too picky about them. They tend to be skinny fit these days, as they seem to be more "acceptable" for a gentleman my age (approaching 40).

As for shoes, I tend to go with sneakers.

The republicans have been marching towards the tea party side of things for a long time. So even if a person is reasonable themselves their is a very good chance they support unreasonable people.

Personally I think who you vote for is a damn good indicator of who you are as a person.

As I recall, Amazon was criticized for being not very profitable (they have a terrible PE ratio). But they were almost always profitable.

Uber is being criticized for having massive losses, which is much worse, because it means that they must make significant changes in the near future that will likely be detrimental to their growth and valuation.

Also, growth is more valuable for Amazon because they have a bigger moat.
I don't see why it should greatly affect group events. Because there are so many witnesses. But working lunches and dinners, yes. Not to mention those all-nighters in hotel rooms to tweak presentations.
It's not whether the logs exist, but whether the conversation was deliberately had using an ephemeral messaging service, in order to evade statutory data retention obligations.

That's the criminality — the evasion, itself; not which tool was used, but why.
I've been spending a lot of time lately wondering if people who treat colleges and universities as though their job is worker training are confused, or if I'm naive in believing colleges and universities exist to expand human knowledge through research and education.

I suspect the answer is that our culture is confused, we want people who are smart and well rounded to also be useful. And the ugly side of it is, we want clear class divisions. One would never refer to law school or medical school as "vocational".
The gold standard is DBT for BPD, and treating other co-occuring conditions. It's hard to find somewhere that does by-the-book DBT, and other approaches can also help, but I might recommend starting with an academic center if possible.
Why don’t you write that better comment? It’s not like mine has that many upvotes (11 at current count). If you explain your position in a reasonable way with evidence, it should displace mine.
This advice is pernicious and self-serving bullshit.

You don't know the poster or his/her wife.

You don't know the wife.

You don't have anywhere near enough information (unless you think a BPD diagnosis or suspected diagnosis is in itself sufficient information, in which case you're contradicted by a very well established line of research going back a number of decades; see links I've posted elsewhere in this thread) to assess the poster's wife's mental state or likelihood of recovery.

Your comment completely misunderstands how BPD works and completely misrepresents the likelihood of recovery. I understand that you may need to prove to yourself that you made the right call by cutting off someone with this disorder in the past, and maybe you did -- but that isn't epistemic justification for the very conclusory advice you're offering the poster.
Well, may be people were shitting on SF streets well before Twitter and Facebook but the stink affects the current people and they might want to do something about it today.
This is not even a little bit true. What you're implying is that businesses are required by law to keep all internal communications in case someday there's litigation, and that is just flatly false.

Deleting data once litigation has been initiated is tampering/obstruction. Deleting data when not under litigation is the company's choice, with very few exceptions. Many companies explicitly require all communication be ephemeral - email, messaging, etc. it explicitly only preserved for X days and then deleted entirely from all systems.

Eh?

Take a Married couple, no kids, $70,000 AGI, all W2.

If they take a standard deduction today, that's $12,200 for the deduction ($500 more with kids) + $8,100 in exemptions, so their taxable income is $49,700. At current tax rates that's $7,198.

Even if they itemized at the new proposed standard deduction of $24,400 (!!! One-third of their gross income, highly unlikely), that's a tax bill of $4,693.

Add in 2 kids ($8,100 more in exemptions) and their tax bill becomes $2,208 ($4,288 - 2 $1,000 child tax credits)

Under the proposed plan, same people:

$70,000 minus $24,400 standard deduction = $45,600 taxable income, that's $5,472 in taxes, minus $600 family tax credit, for a tax bill of $4,872. So net savings of $2,326 vs. standard deduction and a slight increase of $177 vs an itemized deduction of similar size to the new proposed standard.

The GOP plan calls for an increase in the child tax credit from $1,000 to $2,000. If we do the same, we see that the two kids will reduce their total tax bill to $872, an improvement over both prior scenarios. (Again ... $872 out of $70,000 AGI.)

And Marco Rubio's amendment is asking to make the child tax credit refundable against payroll taxes (so instead of just paying $0 if you were in the net negative you'd actually get the overage back.)

So changing the couples' income to $40,000:

* Current SD, no kids = $1,948

* $24,400 Itemized Deduction, no kids = $750

* New SD, no kids = $1,272

* Current Standard Deduction, 2 kids = $0

* New SD, 2 kids = $0

* New SD, 2 kids, Rubio amendment = you get $2,728 back from the government

We're using AI to help software engineers find new careers. We’re looking for a front-end developer with a sharp eye for clean, modern design. You’ll work alongside a team of passionate developers who are flipping hiring on its head.
You should have experience building single-page applications using AngularJS, React or similar. You don’t mind JavaScript’s eccentricities. You’ve done terrifying things with media queries and CSS animations. #ff7800 is your favorite color.
Our SPAs are built with React and Angular on top of plain old JavaScript. Our engineering philosophy is “practicality first” – that means mobile-first when it makes sense, Edge support where we need it, and Flexbox when we can get it.
If you thrive in a fun, fast-paced, energetic, tech-centric environment, now's the time to give us a shout. Together, we'll change how developers find work – forever.
Yeah a divorce is one option, but why would it be the only one? Please read my comment about having kids with a BPD.
The subject here isn't GM's in-house autonomous development program (Supercruise), it's their subsidiary Cruise Automation, who has been doing L4 testing for at least 18 months now. Cruise Automation began in 2013 as a silicon valley robotics start-up, and was acquired by GM in early 2016.

Cruise is also using simulation. They mentioned in their presentation yesterday that they have 3 simulation engines, and together they do 150 simulations/minute. I'm not sure exactly what that means but simulation is an integral part of their validation process just like with Waymo.
I second this, gets more popular every year. The puzzles are well thought out. They get progressively more involved each day, it’s definite worth a try
And leave open the possibility of subsequently bringing the other charges, in case of pardon or if he doesn't follow-through
If you search for the SEL4 kernel, or the L4 family in general, there's a fair number of papers and presentations on their activity in this area. I don't know if I would characterize it as a particularly fast development process though.

> Richard Jacobs, a security analyst whom Uber fired in April and now consults for the company, testified Tuesday that up to dozens of employees were trained to used ephemeral messaging systems, including Wickr, to communicate so that their conversations would be clandestine and could not surface in any “anticipated litigation.”

Given two identical actions, the law can find one illegal and the other permissible based solely on intent.
> Significant advances shipped by the tech industry in the last 20 years include putting the majority of human knowledge in the hands of 40%++ of the world's population, available on-demand, for "coffee money" not "university money."

Oh, I didn't realize tech invented the library card.
I think the big problem, in my opinion, is not that they had disappearing messages so much as it is that they started requiring disappearing messages specifically so they could avoid being caught for anything illegal.

In your example, I don't think FB would be at fault here any more than Wickr is at fault. The problem is with Uber (or the druglord), not the tool that happened to do the deleting.

Nimble Labs | Developer Internships | REMOTE (USA) | http://www.nimblelabs.com/ | Full Time

We are helping train people who'd like to become developers. Instead of spending $10,000 to $20,000 on a coding bootcamp, come work with us, work on real software projects and make money. While the pay rate is relatively low, compared to spending money and what you will learn it is a great opportunity for anyone in school or wanting to change careers to software development.

We are looking for people with some aptitude for computers and programming, but not necessarily any experience.

You will be learning basic web development with Rails and Javascript (node.js and potentially Vue.js)
At this time we are only accepting interns from the USA. If interested, please contact me at harris at nimble labs dot com
It's extracted from a series of tweets, that might explain the weird rhythm. And surely there's a less dickish way to communicate this?
I've often wondered, but have never heard anything one way or the other, if not having a pulse might not be better. I mean think of all of the physical things that have reduced lifespans due to pulsing. Whether it's high frequency like vibration, or low frequency like when your car's brake rotors are warped. Not only do the brakes not work as well, it's hard on wheel bearings and to a lesser extent suspension parts. Or did our vascular system evolve to rely on that pulse? Like, I dunno, helps keep arteries clear or something.

Unfortunately, last I paid attention, artificial heart patients don't live long enough to make an evaluation.
Many times people with BPD see it as a problem with the people around them, and have a hard time connecting the dots that their behavior is the common thread. Not seeing it as their problem, they often avoid treatment, but certainly not always. Particularly as time goes on, many are hopeful for some relief.

>Most other industries we like to compare ourselves to are leagues above ours in individual merit.

I don't think that rings true to those with PhD degrees doing academic research in CS.
I'll probably get downvoted but is there a specific reason that any uber related story is always in top 10? Can there be a day when there aren't any?
> Can't Uber continue to operate at a loss for a few years until they can switch drivers for self-driving vehicles and significantly reduce cost instantly?

Sure. Uber can survive years/decades through losses if wall street/hedge funds/big boys are determined to carry Uber for years/decades. The big boys were willing to carry amazon because it was continually growing and establishing a monopolistic position. The question is whether the big boys believe Uber can continue to grow and establish a monopoly.
IANAL, but I thought Sarbanes-Oxley only applied to public companies, which Uber isn't.
For pay or for obligation, but not because it's just fun. You cannot tell me that finding someone else's financial records online and then applying your approach to accounting on them, just for kicks, is happening. Maybe if you're a finance researcher... but no, not even then.

Doing side programming because you get paid, or because you have an idea that you think could be useful or marketable later, yeah that happens.

Doing side projects because you want to learn a new language or tool, hoping it will make you more able to do your work better in the future, sure. That's a great reason.

There are actually a lot of good reasons to do side programming. But making that a big part of a hiring process is unnecessarily focusing on a behavior that is arguably not going to separate a good candidate from an average candidate. I'm sure there's a lot of really garbage side project code out there.

Ok so what if, by policy, the company uses an ephemeral messaging app with a 30 day log rotation? Can a court hold them in contempt for using that product or is it fine because it's a policy to have log rotation?
This year they had to recall a bunch of eclipse glasses though.
I've found that there are plenty of companies out there looking for people with a well-rounded set of skills... but they tend to be smaller companies. Look for businesses with smaller staff, because they need people who can pick up where others leave off.

They seem to be talking about litigation hold, which must be triggered by some event that makes the company aware of the potential for litigation.
The author is keeping it pretty real based on a majority of my experience. Doesn't have to be spot on, but it's real.
IANAL, but I'm pretty sure the laws around tampering with/destroying evidence are crafted in such a way to make knowingly destroying evidence of a crime — even before that crime is under investigation — unambiguously illegal.

If not, that would be an oil-tanker sized loophole for avoiding prosecution, and I don't think the folks crafting criminal evidentiary law were that dumb.
I'm pretty bearish on Uber, but let's note that it's a down-round of $50B or so. Softbank clearly still thinks that there's a bright future ahead for Uber, if not quite as bright as the earlier $70B valuation suggested.

I'm more bearish than Softbank is. But there's a serious difference between a down-round that's still makes Uber a uniquely valuable unicorn and the kind of down rounds that a more typical start-up might get.

My brother is 32, still lives with mother, says she's a cerebral narcissist, blames her for everything. But still doesn't work, won't find a job. She cooks, washes the laundry. He won't even put the dishes into the dishwasher. But when he even senses that she's gonna ask him what his plans are, there's a 2-3 day barrage of insults and a laundry list of wrongs done do to him. So far, only zyprexa is preventing him from doing something stupid.
I thought this was going to be a list about "life". I was actually pleasantly surprised it was about our industry!
