That's what I have been trying to explain to you now for several posts. The US general idea of opportunity and the American Dream isn't what you think it is.

So glad you finally got that part.

It's a fundamental difference in how these things are percieved.
Yes, but isn't the Model 3 supposed to sell for around 35 to 40k $ when it reaches a bigger production? That was my comparison.
There might be some interesting analysis there, but the social science underlying it is awful. If you base your analysis on unsubstantiated priors, you get useless results.

It's really his push, his vision and his risk. NASA had tremendous resources for decades, with some of the best minds of 21st century working there. They didn't produce self landing rockets, and on top of that, it makes complete business and economic sense too.
He went into the forest purposely looking for a dead body. He didn't feel remorse for the person who had committed suicide. He showed no empathy for the now deceased person.

There's a huge difference in bringing awareness to "Suicide Forest" versus going there just to find a dead body to taunt.
I wonder if there is an idea for a service here? If over-reporting of e.g. violence on the news can alter people’s perception, maybe we can use that vulnerability to our advantage? If your son received a text everyday about someone going blind or having limbs amputated, maybe you can bias his perception by over-reporting bad outcomes?
> "Health Care will be fixed not by laws or insurance companies, but by technical innovation and good old fashioned economics. "

I doubt market forces can drive the healthcare prices to normal values. The success of a free market hinges on supply-demand balance and consumer choice. In healthcare, both factors are skewed against the consumer.
If I am consumer of a non-essential product and if I find a supplier unsatisfactory, I either have the choice of going with a better competitor or even forego consuming the product altogether. When it comes to healthcare, I don't have much option. Even the competitive forces are weakened due to high barrier for entry and lack of bargaining power from the consumer.
If you are sick and even if all the existing healthcare providers are expensive, you don't have the luxury to sit out. When consumers are locked in like this, there is no motivation for healthcare providers to drop their rates.
You're not wrong. The individual right to 'choose' is not strong enough to enact real change in this space. But a tax is a short sighted and there's no reason to believe that any state dislikes the current state of advertising enough to effectively ban it outright.

> No amount of data or ancdotes beats calories in

Again, no. The reason obese people are so obese is because they are never satiated. You can eat potato chips and drink soda all day, without ever feeling full. Secondly, it's an addiction to refined sugars and super simple carbs. I'm not arguing that calories aren't calories, but your body reacts differently to a Snickers bar than it does broccoli.
True, but most users don't seem to mind. Arguably, streaming is just a better storage medium for most users. Until the company providing the service screws its customers over, if course. I doubt that possibility weighs very heavily into many consumers' buying choices.

I agree with a lot of your points, but "Religion is not focused on empathy at all anymore, if it ever was" is a bit of a blanket statement and is mostly untrue. It is certainly true for certain fundamentalist groups. Those are the loudest groups but are a minority among religions here in the states.

I was raised Protestant and am now Catholic. The mainline Protestant churches, the majority of the Catholic church, and every Jewish and Muslim organization I've encountered-- all very much focus on social justice. The USCCB (Catholic bishops) were big proponents of Obama Care before they realized it would contain some clauses that ran afoul of magisterial Catholic teaching. In general, I'd say that religion here has a heavy focus on empathy.

> When I receive a GPG encrypted email from a stranger, though, I immediately get the feeling that I don’t want to read it. Sometimes I actually contemplate creating a filter for them so that they bypass my inbox entirely, but for now I sigh, unlock my key, start reading, and with a faint glimmer of hope am typically disappointed.

I wonder what proportion of his plaintext email from strangers is interesting. For me it's close to 0%, mostly spam or people demanding I do free work to fix issues in open source code. I really doubt this has much to do with GPG mails specifically.

Indeed. If you equalise pay between men and women, then either (a) you have to equalise pay among all employees for the same work, or (b) you throw merit-based salaries out the window and mandating paying more to one gender than the other for the same work.
No, it hasn't.

Standards have got considerably worse in many measures recently.

When people talk about the winter crisis it's differently to previous winter crises -- A&Es turning away ambos because the corridors are full isn't something that used to happen.

In the past Ambos have been turned away, but that's because the beds were full. Those A&Es still had emergency capacity (in the corridors).

I'm looking for entry-level or junior dev work. While I'm a generalist into both front and backend and will happily accept work on either end, I am most interested in DevOps and backend. I'm comfortable on the CLI and with vim, tmux, git, ssh, etc. I also have some DevOps experience. Responsive with excellent soft skills, and I'm easily in the 99th percentile of English fluency and written communication. Shoot me a message—I'm hungry to level up.

I've probably spent a couple of hours last month trying to resolve sound driver related issues where my headphone jack stopped working on Ubuntu 16.04. Also, my dual monitor set-up randomly stopped working.. this was during a deadline so I ended up coding with my thinkpad screen for the entirety of a day. This is my work machine. These are the exact same problems I faced 10 years ago when I was using Ubuntu. Completely unacceptable. Macs + Windows are miles ahead more stable than Ubuntu.
As said Waze, Google, etc. can generate their own. There are also lots of companies that have paid to put sensors on public roads but retain all the rights for the traffic data. I think anything older than 1 day should be released into open data.

This is certainly true of my last employer. Let's just say it's a famous Fortune 500 company, in heavy industry.

I have seen a great many people promoted to their level of incompetence.

I had the combination of having good technical skills but terrible organizational political skills.

This company currently has a director of Cyber Security who doesn't know what ICMP is or why it's not feasible to block all ICMP traffic on internal firewalls & switches.

Having no technical abilities but outstanding political skills have served her well.

It's literally the only distro I can run on my two My Book Live mini-file servers being powerPC and all. Have to run a patched kernel though.

Couldn't see running it as my desktop distro since I like to fiddle with stuff and having an older compiler and python isn't really all that desirable. Back when I hacked on blender I was even having a hard time keeping up on 'bleeding-edge' fedora since one of the main devs liked to upgrade to the newest python release as soon as it was out.
Agreed. Just standards in general. I'm all for continuing efficiency improvement through pilot programs but 80% of the function and business process of healthcare should be standardized. However, is it going to happen? No, probably not. I see it similar to the metric system. The US decided not to adopt what is a (better and universal) standard because "That's not how we do things here."

One thing that put me off about tesla, if you overlook all of the manufacturing issues that pretty much every analyst says will doom the company, is that for some bizarre reason the models were intentionally named in order to spell out S3XY.

His back of hand calculations on the viability of self-landing rockets, while coming back from a trip to Russia after a failed attempt to purchase a launch vehicle certainly wasn't moonshot.

I think a decent portion should also be laid at the feet of technology in general, not even just Netflix, but also that how teens interact on social media is more or less in the public (and their parents) eyes, with the exceptions of things like Snapchat which isn't very conducive to planning a party.

It's also worth noting that it's much, much harder for teens to get ahold of booze these days, and the penalties for having anything they shouldn't have, be it alcohol, drugs, whatever, are extremely steep. Not saying that stops it completely, but they keep that sort of thing quiet if they don't want to end up in prison for a couple of decades. Enough weed to throw a party, in many states, would get you put in a cell until you were middle-aged.

After all of that, a good amount I agree with the article is just down to kids having more to do that doesn't carry anything close to the same kind of risks; I also don't understand why this is a bad thing?
Uh, it's about as much your money in both cases, that is to say it's not. In both cases its their money in both a the practical and legal sense.

The difference is that when a company takes your dollars and put it towards their new SAP system to hopefully upgrade their shitty web services, wasting $100 million, you don't fell you have any agency over what happens at all.

On the other hand, when the government invests money in a huge SAP project that then fail, you do feel entitled to rage about it, since there are actual ways you could have acted to prevent this waste (convoluted that the process may be).

But the money the government owns isn't yours in any real sense, since most of it is unaffected by any formal action you can take. In fact, you might in practice be more in control, by the avenue of complaints and media campaigns, of money you've given to private enterprises. At least on the extremes, it is certainly easier to get your favourite pub to buy new lamps than getting the Army to get some new artillery.

Markforged | Full-Stack Software Engineer | Boston, MA or San Francisco, CA | Onsite | Full-time or college intern | $100K+ and equity

Markforged builds the world's best 3D printers to liberate mechanical engineers from decades-old, slow processes. MF broke ground in 2014 with the world's first continuous carbon fiber 3D printer, and this year with the world's first sub-$100K metal printer. Currently MF has 4 software engineers and is looking for a few more.

Software stack:

* Webapp - Express.js / AWS backend, AngularJS / WebGL frontend, Electron for optional desktop client, all sanely-linted CoffeeScript

* Computational geometry engine for part slicing - Written from scratch in CoffeeScript and C++. Runs on EC2, in-browser, or on desktop client

* Printer touchscreen application - Node Webkit / AngularJS + Python -> migrating to Electron / VueJS + Python, all on top of a custom Debian image on a BeagleBone

* Printer firmware - embedded C on a custom board

Them team is all full-stack. Software tasks are generally distributed based on individual interest. You will have tons of project ownership. Your ideas will influence the company's direction. You will do interdisciplinary work on physical systems and learn from best-of-the-best engineers across MatSci, Mech-E, EE, and SW, mostly MIT grads.

To succeed here, you need to be a quick learner and have a passion for software engineering. You don't need prior experience with 3D printing or our software stack, you can pick up those skills on the job.

EURUSD: Loses Upside Pressure, Vulnerable
"Is there a suitable 3rd-party solution that we can use? " This sounds simple but "suitable" tends to be a squishy term. Often the answer is "kinda", and you need to decide whether writing new code is less work than working around the limitations of existing solutions... Which kind of puts you back in square one.

If you did it that way I think you'd have to have a porous metallic bone as well. I wonder if that'd negatively impact the structural stability though. Probably not alot.

For amazon to say, "Use _____ to remove that stain," and allow my company to put in a $0.35 per request bid to fill it in with "Jeremy's Awesome Cleaning Sauce," seems inherently more wrong.
Can you elaborate what you mean by this. What would an example of the bad practice look like verse if it had been done correctly?

I don't think that's true. At some point, an abhorrent moral code is going to entail a proposition that is either factually incorrect or inconsistent with itself.

I've been involved in a couple tech-oriented recruiting companies. There are 2 related problems making this more nuanced than what is visible at first sight IMO.

1) In many countries it's normal for companies to keep the salaries secret so employee A has no idea what employee B gets. Even Employee A is an utter slacker but good with selling themselves, A will generally go further. (There is a strong relation to success/leadership positions & Dunning-Kruger). Being honest about equal pay would mean companies have to be transparent about their pay-grades (kudos to those who do and not threaten to prosecute employees when they discuss this internally).

2) Women are less likely to either suffer from Dunning-Kruger. Nor are they as easily prepared to "fake it, until they make it" (as their male counterparts). I've seen this both as a lifelong engineer and in my countless interviews with applicants. Women tend to be more honest upfront about what they know. There are probably articles/blogs that confirm this though.

This is something companies need to incorporate into their applicant screening. Considering how idiotic most interviews are still run (whiteboard coding, creation of artificial stress in the interview, etc ...) I have little hope. If we want to make it fair we need to rethink hiring. (which is easy to say when the whole world is pushing for more automation within HR[1][2], with [2] being especially questionable since an interview isn't just for companies getting know you but also for you to assess your prospective future employer. Not much of a good first impression at all if the interviewer is literally a f*ing bot, is it?

We need to discuss not just gender-equality but ageism and quite a number of other problems which I believe are rooted in transparency of HR processes & on-boarding.

As far as anyone can tell, this is the first non-employee who's received his Model 3 and he took delivery on the 26th of December, two days before starting this drive - so presumably he's not exactly your average customer.
I always wonder - if there is such a huge gap, why don't folks just employ women, since they're cheaper and do the same work?

Isn't that the question to be answered in order to really understand what's going on?

Otherwise I bet I can always find, for any company, a subset of people that are underpaid relative to the rest, be it related to age, gender, race, sexual preferences, employment history, ZIP code, whatever.
