You suggest there's something wrong with that, but I'm at a loss as to what it could be. Of course two year olds go to day care. Do you want to deny them their social development? I recommend starting daycare around 6 months.

I'm personally really happy with our arrangement: I work 4 days, my wife works 4 days, and 3 days of daycare. We get to spend plenty of time with the kids, but we also have a (practically) full-time job and the kids get lots of time to play with other kids.

I'd be more worried if millions of two year olds were not going to daycare.

In what world is two years worth of backups required for reasonable retention? Either the backups are tiny or the company involved has got more money than sense. I'd see no reason, in any company, for backups to be held for longer than 6 months, and that would be an outside estimate (many companies could get away with only having a couple of months worth of backups).

In many companies I worked that were like this, other developers also wanted to fix these problems. So, talking with them is also a good start I would say, if you get get one more colleague to work kind of right from beginning is a nice start too. Normally, QAs and test automation engineers will be all for improve the situation. Being a bit more vocal on these problems, but it is important to choose what should be the 1st problem to be tackled.
Ask HN: Entry-level freelance work in (computational) linguistics?
I recently came across the UNL (Universal Networking Language) project. It's an academic NLP language, but, as I understand, the development used to be open to essentially everyone:

http://www.unlweb.net/unlweb/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69:call-for-participation-in-the-unl-programme

So you could join the project as a 'layman' and prepare yourself using the UNDL Foundation's online teaching environment. Then you would essentially work with the syntax and semantics of your native language(!), and get paid based on your input.

Currently the project appears to be stalled. But I wonder if there is anything remotely similar available elsewhere?

A paid (computational) linguistics research project/job that would welcome laymen-freelancers as contributors, and that would allow one to learn relevant skills on the go?

(I've no background in CS nor linguistics, but I've always found syntax (as well as phonetics, spoken word, dialects, sociolinguistics) interesting. So I am essentially looking for a "modest" entry point to these fields. Thanks!)

Technical information is here: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2018/Feb/33
True dat. Writing no documentation is also a bad path.

Personally I've come to favor keeping the technical documentation close to the code. That is, keep it as markdown files and check it into git. They are just as easily hyperlinked to as a wiki page on the bitbucket web interface (or whichever system is used). The main README.md should contain information on how to set up the dev environment. Other README.md files, located in the folder root of modules, provide more specific information.

Documentation of a less technical nature may still find a natural home in the Wiki, since we also need a place where various managers, testers, salespeople, support people, etc. can maintain their documentation.
Maybe you need to try a bit harder to find a better daycare.

Small children need love and attention, but they also need social interaction. They can get both at a daycare. And a daycare doesn't have to mean they never see their parents again. I consider 3 days of daycare and parents each working 4 days to be a perfect balance, and I notice a lot of parents doing exactly that. Although different people may have different situations and needs and find a different balance. But the benefits of daycare shouldn't be too lightly dismissed.

No it does not. This is a myth that is always used by people who want to move to GitHub for other actual reasons that they cannot say in public.

I have first hand information from two projects (one of them large) that contribution, apart from drive-by doc fixes, does not increase.

Meaningful contribution decreases, because existing devs leave or become inactive because of GitHub.

It depends on where the purchase is made and how identity is tracked. You could have a more complicated attribution model that doesn't rely solely on the last interaction, like using clock/view-through windows.

However you also have the problem of identity tracking. The simplest way is cookie tracking but this had cross device and IRL problems. You can use services like Facebook or Google top track identity across devices, even in store purchases if you track data well enough.

Problem in both cases is that the data collection and analyses becomes increasingly complex and inefficient. However this data is a lot more sophisticated than what you could achieve in old media. On the other hand it's up to debate whether the ads themselves are efficient in the digital medium.

Personally, I believe far too many advertisers obsess over ROI without having a clue how to do proper attribution modelling. This leads to everyone trying to grab that last interaction dollar, clickbaiting, creating a divisive environment and this is why we can't have nice things.
You could. But most people won't. The ones that do this will game your system regardless; they have the time and resources to. It's about making it not worth it to buy a domain and set up MX forwarding/gmail federation or whatever, just for $5.
tl;dr: doubling size of metadata (and usually a half of a 128bit address is zeros anyway).

Having twice as much space occupied has many implications: twice as much space lost for data itself, less metadata will fit CPU caches, less throughput in buses between CPU and storage, lengthier read time for the storage itself, etc.

Traditionally only if you are charging an interest rate. There are a few rules in the US around lending money to non-family and expecting it to be paid back.

IANAL, but I lend a lot of money, and this is what I've been told:

If you give without the expectation it is typically just cash swapping hands in both directions. If you give money to a non family member and expect payments (with or without interest) OR to a family member and expect more than a rate that is defined at the IRS (<1%, IIRC), then the income is taxable. How they tax you on a no-interest loan to a non-family member, I have no idea.

Code quality depends on you. If you are maintaining the system then for your own sanity, clean it where you can. If you are writing the system for someone else to maintain, clean it where you can, because you will probably be the poor sod who will have to maintain it later on.

If you can't clean it now, write down everything you know about the system, all those little annoying assumptions that nobody else has documented. Do this for your own sanity.

Don't be afraid to rebuild something if that will get you out of a bind. It will be for your own sanity to do so.

The pragmatics of cleaning up code is for your own sanity, unless you intend to leave in the near future. In that situation, it will be someone else's problem. But remember that in your next job, you'll become the someone else.

If you want to start getting into who is irrationally afraid of what, I have this amusing comparison.

Studies seem to show that marathon runners die from cardiac arrest at the rate of one every 3 to 6 million miles. That is about 160 to 330 deaths per billion miles. By comparison motor vehicle fatality rates are about 12 per billion miles (including pedestrians). So I wonder if we should stop worrying about cars and serial killers and start worrying about running...

Ironically, I got my 1 in 3 million figure from the abstract of a paper with the opposite slant, which you may also find edifying:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18156224

Note that I translated hours to miles by multiplying 14 million hours by an average speed of 5.67 mph. This was taken from the following link, with the average time for the NYC marathon in 2016:

That is only a problem if you have very unusual ideas about how a child should be raised. At a good daycare, your child is cared for by professionals who need to meet much stricter criteria than parents.

Of course not all daycares meet the highest standards, and standards can also vary per country. But a good daycare is good for your child.

I think that if search worked, the Wiki could be a great hub of information.

For the search to work, it should make an effort to get to know you, that is, try to track which pages you have previously edited or opened, or maybe it could access information about which project you are currently assigned to in JIRA or which internal repositories you have recently committed to in git. Also, which pages are popular, which pages are mainteined, etc. This would enable its search engine to filter bubble you and provide far better results that I currently see Confluence doing.

Further, it should be able to contain pages which are just indexed mirrors of other resources. Some pages could be simply uneditable mirrors of markdown files in your repository, making it possible for developers to keep documentation alongside the code if this makes more sense to them. Other pages could be mirrors of Word documents or Excel sheets of PDF files on shared drives or where the company likes to keep this stuff. All of this stuff would be thoroughly indexed by the wiki and would show up in search results.

So I guess what I'm proposing is that wikis become an aggregator of information more than a single store of information. And that they really, really nail the search part.
> Why does the UK seem to take 1984 as a guide book, rather than a cautionary tale?

Answering a rhetorical question here, but the UK is an unreconstructed colonial government left over from the Empire. In some ways it hasn't really adapted to the independence of Ireland, despite that being nearly 100 years ago. Instead it runs a system designed for control of "distant savages" from London on an absurdly reduced scale, like someone trying to use Kubernetes for their "hello world".

Three of the four home nations have colonial office structures. There's a reason there's no Secretary of State for England.

Even within England, places like Stoke-on-Trent and Great Yarmouth get treated as if they were in remote inaccessible jungle because you can't get there on an Oyster card.

Brexit is where we find out which of the bits of the British constitution are load-bearing.

That's an approach. Don't know if I'd call it simple. Your monorepo would start looking like an artifact repository at some point, with multiple versions of products.

And Google's approach, I'm sure, requires a bit of standardization and tooling investment. It's not clear to me that equivalent conformance and investment in monorepos and a package manager wouldn't work just as well.
Some particular notes:

> Paper still required for most proof of identity/address etc.

Government requirement, the "100 point test". Introduced to cut down on money laundering. It also cuts down on a lot of other crimes. In Australia I used my credit cards for any old thing. In the US if I sneeze too loudly the bank freezes it and asks me to confirm the last dozen transactions.

> Wet signatures still considered king/stronger than other forms of identification. This has caused me issues as I barely ever need to sign and hence my signature is never consistent!

I never had this experience. PIN or ID for identity, signature for legal effect. Meanwhile in the US I sign for everything.

> Having to specify that you want a contactless debit/credit card - do people really not want contactless cards?

This might be specific to your bank. They marketed contactless heavily when it came, right after heavily marketing chip-and-PIN. Might have been an own-goal.

I'm told, anecdotally, that a lot of the UK's banking modernisation in the 90s was done by Australians who participated in Australia's banking modernisation in the 80s. Might not be true, but it sounds cool, so I'm going with it.

Fair point.

I can see the purpose of "right to be forgotten", but I think in some circumstances it is going to be abused. Any service that "bans" users for fraudulent/abusive activity and stores data about the banned user to prevent them from creating new accounts is going to have a problem. Banned user can just request to be forgotten and then create a new account. Unless there is some exception within GDPR that will support this use case.
