I worked in the restaurant space for many years... technology in the restaurant space. That's a very interesting story too.

Running a restaurant or cafe is pure social engineering. Because you control the environment you can influence the behavior of customers that occupy that space. Restaurants and cafes are a hospitality industry. You must treat your guests like kings and queens. But you also have to make money. Margins are razor thin.

You can change the mood and behavior of a place with music and lighting alone. If the customers are too sedentary crank up the music and make it a fast pace. Turn up the lighting. It gets people moving. Send waiters out and ask customers if they need any thing. Be nice, cheerful, and helpful. They will realize that this isn't an office.

If you have a problem with laptops you can kill the wifi and power. A better way would be to work with the laptops and devices. Give people an opportunity to spend. Make it work for you. Offer them technology to use! That's what I helped do.
Oddly, I was seeing the opposite. General criticism seems to get downed quickly. Often with no dialogue.
Well, plans say the government is subsidizing Electric cars and Plugin-Hybrids with 4,000 Euro. Half payed by the government and the other half from car manufacturers.

They even want to expand these subsidies to small businesses and extend the amount to 8,000 Euros.

The problem indeed is that this would not help to banish air pollution, because the numbers are to low. The second thing is, that only wealthier people would benefit from these subsidies. You have to be able to afford a new car at first. And second you have to be able to afford an electric car. And even if you are the typical buy brand new cars guy, you typically drive these cars 6 to 10 years. So these subsidies might come in an unpleasent moment of your car-buying-cycle.

Free public transportation could reduce car traffic and everybody could benefit. Even poor people.
I hate these types of posts. They do nothing to help the graph database space. How good are they at bidirectional traversals, what about deep traversals in complex networks with more than 50 relationship types? What about x? Every vendor is going to be better at one thing than another, there is always a trade off, but it is irrelevant.

Last week we took a very deep and very wide sales hierarchy query from 10 seconds in Oracle to 4ms in Neo4j. If Arango could it in 3ms, or Orient in 5ms doesn't really matter. The point is graph databases are much better at some queries than relational. They should be blogging about use cases and customer successes, not benchmarks.

When Trump won, the odds of tax cuts instantly jumped from 10% (the odds of Trump winning) to about 100%. The may have caused companies to change their forecasts and spending as if the tax cuts had already happened, possibly providing a small economic boost despite the tax cuts having not yet happened. Same same for stimulus spending, but the odds on of that are less certain (maybe 50%). What is more likely to happen now is that there will not be high inflation despite the high deficits. I remember reading the same arguments in the 2000's about how the Bush tax cuts would cause high inflation, but the inflation never came. The reason is tax cuts and stimulus cannot be both ineffective and inflationary. The consensus by many economists seems to be that tax cuts and stimulus only provide a most a modest economic boost, if any. This means that interest rates won't have to rise too much, but longer-dated bonds may suffer.
The fact that the IP address is publically routable does not imply that the server is actually reachable from the public Internet—that depends on the firewall.

You can associate public hostnames with private-range IP addresses as well, and obtain certificates for them. The main point was that the use of private, non-routable IP addresses does not imply that the network is trusted, and thus is not sufficient reason to exempt the server from securely identifying itself.

Or maybe, everyone on this article has proven exactly the main point of the article. Because no one has discussed the technical merits of the advice I offered, only how they interpreted my tone via text to be too harsh for their sensitive standards. It proves my point that this site downvotes not based on wrong ideas, but rather disliked ideas. And that is something I wont be a part of any longer.
The government finances the deficit by borrowing real assets from capital markets. This borrowing is competition for private companies also seeking capital. The government generally invests in things that don't improve growth and productivity, such as military and repaying old debts, so this borrowing is a misallocation of resources. The government is taking money out of the private sector when it runs a deficit.
I could never survive in even less robust conditions. I need certain things, certain services, medical care that requires long time to deal with etc. I have reduced my life to the bare minimum survivable for me in the name of preserving money and it's not enough. Any "advice" requires reducing more or suffering more either through subtraction or addition. I can't live like that. I had some plan to write a post here in AskHN to lay it out and maybe some miracle idea or plan would result but I finally realized I have done that sort of thing repeatedly over the years and the predictable results always take rather than give so there is no point.

Anyone I connect with in private and spend energy engaging and explaining things to in depth just repeats the same script of things everyone things you can and should do and I end up more depressed and hopeless and they end up disappearing either outright or after some lecture and victim blaming. I know why they do it, to preserve a sense of security for themselves, but it drains me nonetheless. I can't get what I really need in this place and can't realistically establish anywhere I could.

"Junior" implies training, and American companies don't do training. If you're lucky, they have an internship program, which is apparently enough experience to get you a 6-month contract-to-hire as a "regular" developer.

It's a name game. "Developer" is actually "Junior Developer", "Senior Developer" is actually "Developer", and "Lead Developer" or "Principal Developer" is really "Senior Developer".
Asset inflation because of low interest rates. It’s made the rich much richer and put housing out of reach of many young people.
It's also worth noting that not one race has a monopoly on racism. Racism exists amongst many groups. Older Koreans hold some pretty odious views about Japanese. Newer generations don't hold the same views, normally, but some do. Same in the US, if you walk through or work in low income neighborhoods you'll hear racist point of views pretty often as well as anti lgbt comments. But often it's only the lower class whites who get called out.

Another observation is that we've created an environment where we condone hate on some people, even by progressives.

Basically the rule is, it's not okay to hate, unless its directed against the outgroup of society.

> If you want to allow a mix of local tickets and rail tickets (to allow one fare for the whole journey) it'll be close to impossible to build a barrier that works for all of those.

Let's take Rotterdam or Amsterdam as an example. Both of these stations are closed off to non-ticket holders. You can access Dutch trains as well as international trains like Thalys to France and ICE to Germany.

Access is granted by individual tickets bought from the Dutch railway kiosks, by Dutch public transport cards, or by printed/digital QR-code tickets from any of the three rail companies. There is only one type of barrier. There are not isolated entrances for particular lines.

Maybe I misunderstand you, because what you say is close to impossible seems to work just fine in the NL.

>since USB Power Delivery can supply 20V at 5A, might USB serve as a standardized power source for radio amplifiers?

Probably not. A typical amateur transceiver draws about 300W on transmit, which massively exceeds the 100W limit of USB Power Delivery. A linear amplifier running at the American legal limit will draw as much as 3.5kW.

The de-facto standard for mobile equipment is 13.8v DC +/- 10%, which allows for operation on standard lead-acid batteries.
In Germany at least we have apprenticeships and working students.

There is a apprenticeship program for developers (Fachinformatiker für Anwendungsentwicklung -> Qualified IT Specialist for Application development) which gets rather much practical knowledge, since they only go, I think, 2 days a week to school and 3 days a week to work. This takes 3 years, so they have much time to transition from a newbie to a junior to a senior.

The main problem is, most "professional school" are quite shitty. So if your company doesn't have good apprenticeship programs, you're basically stuck with learning outdated stuff at school and nothing of value at your company.

I studied computer science and worked as a web developer on the side, so I wouldn't finish my studies without practical knowledge.

While that's close there's an important distinction that it's only in the case where you have no other viable options for communications and life or property is in danger[1].

However if you don't have a license you can't practice so it's really better to spend the tiny effort to get licensed :).

We have a pre-interview test that is basically "use flickr's api to show some pictures", with a few details about how the pictures are sized and arranged. Applicants that have gone to bootcamps and even college frequently fail this miserably. Many of the rest fail to understand the details. We even had one use a completely different end point than the one specified by URL to the documentation. Some have just given up and turned nothing in, or something that they admitted didn't work.

These are candidates that we liked their resume enough to give them a shot, not just anyone who applied.

I lived in Zimbabwe through the hyperinflation era. While true that going through hyperinflation means that your debts are essentially forgiven, there are so many negative knock-on effects in the economy and society as a whole, that you'd have to have a pretty massive debt for that kind of hyperinflation to have a net positive utility for you.

Germany is the only country I ever visited where i feared the ticket inspector. I've seen them put fines. They go undercover in the metro: sometimes its just a dude sitting there suddenly takes the gadget out and yells out a control. I've had foreign friends, as tourists having to pay the fine.

In SF you can simply not pay,there is no control. In argentina, the bus driver might not start the bus if you don't pay, turning the whole bus people against you. In germany, you get a damn ticket very fast, which you can pay with credit card.

I once didnt pay the ticket and felt like Jason Bourne.

Some context here on "fag" / "faggot"

In some cases Quinn seems to be bantering with her gay friends. Quinn is queer herself.

In other cases she is calling out some 4chan person, for unknown reasons since they deleted their account. Norton is using the common lingo on that site. Especially at the time, on 4chan, everyone was a fag. Being a "fag" on 4chan or certain IRC channels was a complex identity. It was acknowledgement of being a high school social outcast who got called a "fag", and also part of a community that's turned that hate inwards, and is merciless towards outsiders and even each other.

And yes, it's also a slur against gay people and it causes many people pain to read it.

These aspects of internet culture are hideous and awful. It's also the culture that Norton fell into, and grew out of. I suspect many people here are the same.

Where she is right now? Was she a good pick for the NYTimes?

She's complicated. In her personal life she can be very, very difficult to deal with, and her associations are questionable. (Like probably all of your favorite writers from other eras!)

But there isn't anyone else writing with her compassion and understanding about what's happening with young men online in odd technical corners of the internet. And her prescription, that compassion and understanding are the way out – some may find it naive, but I see no other plausible response to the rise of fascism in developed countries today.

I encourage everyone to read her works.

The practical test pyramid
That depends. If you know that your data contains a highly irregular, non-exhaustive list of extra attributes that have no relations to other parts of the data model, a JSON column might be the right choice. It's rarely the best choice, but I can totally see applications where it is.
4 and 2 are not in opposition when ticket pricing is used for load distribution. Which actually happens, monthly tickets are much cheaper here if you take the option that excludes rush hour. With free tickets, that would be lost.

I'm all for allocating more tax money to transit (and I think it's pretty cool that "we"/"they" are actually consisting it), but I'm really afraid that quality would suffer a lot of tickets were abandoned. Turning businesses (even heavily subsidized businesses) into charities will absolutely change how they are run.
"Most inventors are not professors"

This is not a great example.
In academia, that's because they are fundamentally different jobs in most cases.

Most of the professor roles are not teaching their research, and where they are, i would bet your best professors are the inventors. But most are researching x and teaching y.

By contrast, in software development, the devs should be teaching, because what they are teaching is what they are doing on a daily basis, and the knowledge they've learned in how to do that well.

The notion that people who refuse to mentor or attend meetings (assuming these are symptoms of the same "not team player" phenomenon, and not something else) are rockstars is, imho, pretty misguided.

Even if you assume the 10x people silliness is true, each person mentoring 2-3 new people and building them will make the organization more productive than your 10x person fairly quickly.

(Again, situation may be reasonably different if you only will have a team of one or two, etc)

AMP scrolling is still broken. I don’t see why it needs to touch the scroll behavior at all. Plain html is both fast and scrolls naturally. It doesn’t break mobile safari. I don’t get why Google needed to render AMP on such a way that they need to try hard to emulate native scroll behavior (still getting it wrong, previously it was too fast and now it’s a smidge too slow) instead of just using the native behavior.

> In the case of a real emergency, the FCC allows you to use a Ham radio without a license.

That's like saying, "In the case of a real emergency, the police allow you to smash in a store window." It's technically true, but it shows a lack of wisdom to offer a statement like that to people who don't know what they're doing, such people who buy a radio and don't have the knowledge required to obtain the relevant FCC license.

In the case of a real emergency, the last thing I want is the ham bands filled with unlicensed operators attempting to use their radios.
