The issue in my case is that the opportunities are limited based on location. Workers in this town should be making MORE than average owing to lack of benefits that a big city has.

Theirs a reason they pay as little as they do. The 'good' talent leaves for higher paying jobs elsewhere. It's a self perpetuating problem.

I read an article just the other day about a group of IT workers who attempted to form a union - that didn't go well. I'd be all in.
They are not pyramid-shaped at all. Running a successful franchise does not depend on your ability to recruit other franchise owners and then collect rent from them.

Yep, INCIS was a cockup of massive proportions.

I remember interviewing a BA (business analyst) who had just come off of the INCIS project. She said their entity model was enormous, with tens of thousands of entities.

I couldn't understand how any project could have so many entities, let alone how anyone would ever hope to code up such a thing.

She said the commandment to the analysts was to model everything so they did, just like they learnt in data modelling 101.

So (INCIS was a project for the NZ Police), e.g.:

- A police station has zero or more cells

- A cell has one or more doors

- A door has one and only one key

- A door has many bars

Another data point in INCIS - my sister at the time worked in the police. Her workplace ran out of pencils (they did a lot of note taking with pencils and paper). INCIS had so thoroughly depleted the police's budget that there was nothing left for...say.. computers with email and the like.

I'm not sure which is worse, but I don't think either are helpful beyond the very very short term.
AngelList definitely has a great recruiting platform! One of the main differences right now is that Work at a Startup is a great way to get exposure to startups working on a vast array of problems in different industries. Right now we're working on making it more of a two-way marketplace where job-seekers will be able to browse all the YC companies that are currently hiring to find the ones who's goal/product really resonates with them.

Stepping back a bit, hiring is the most ubiquitous problem our portfolio companies report to us in the years after going through YC. Given that, building a hiring platform for our companies that YC doesn't need to directly monetize can add a lot of value and accelerate their progress post-batch.
Why? Most of that cruft is abstracted away, computation only gets cheaper over time (a world class AI rig cost ~30k, a decent one for 2k) and most applications of ML run on commodity hardware.

No, just the guards series and it sounds like not even adaptions of existing stories but rather ones based upon the watch in general. If the BBC pulls off another Sherlock and manage to get a decent writer then I think it could be great, but if they do a repeat of the mediocre adaptions done by Sky a few years back then it will be a sad coda on the inability of studios to do Pratchett well...

I totally agree. I was/am stuck in a similar place, but during a wellness workshop my speaker reminded everyone that the brain is like a muscle: you can train it to perform as desired so long as you condition it every day.

I'm not suggesting it is as easy as physical exercise, but this definitely changed my perspective on my personal well-being.
You're missing at least two pieces of incompetence:

1: the long gun registry was also a huge failed massively over budget project, so using the same people for Phoenix...

2: the long gun registry project was relocated from Ottawa to rural New Brunswick. Any competent civil servants switched to other departments to avoid the move. Only the civil servants without other options made the move...
Decades of different payment rules are anything but simple.

Imagine people hired over the last 50 years. Each at a different rate, pay scale, union, non-union, some people in a position have certain perks, some don't, and it all varies from region to region, province to province, department to department of the government.

I recently oversaw a payroll transformation project in Canada for an energy co at a smaller, but most complex scale according to the payroll vendor.

A few key problem makers add to the payroll mess;

- Accountants and their spreadsheets who think adding one little tweak here or there isn't a big deal. They create so much technical debt. It's not realized, until 10 or 20 simple tweaks on top of each other, and then have to interpret them relative to labor or union rules of each province. Accountants are not a vision of innovation. You will hear many just talk about having to do "manipulations" of data to get it how it should be and quickly losing vision that computers are good calculators and followers of instruction.

- HR / Payroll practitioners do not have enough digital skills on average. Either they can't do the excel work and feel threatened, or do have the excel skills and feel threatened. Either way, change management is a constant threat.

- No one knows how to successfully procure, implement and roll out software as a non-technical manager. Whether it's accounting, hr, payroll, sales, every position is becoming digital first, and the powers that be are not. It's a good case as to why CTO's are needed reporting to CEO's who get the big picture.

Payroll othherwise, is a neat problem on it's own. In my case, the project ended up implementing a larger vendor of payroll that did a decent job that was saved by preparations we made at the CTO level.

Before selecting a vendor, a payroll script capturing the rules for all employees in all regions to calculate everything was developed in-house. It took months of hardening at a few payrolls per month. Using this in-house payroll tool, and not wishing to update it, it was used to hold the screws to the payroll vendor if their output didn't match. Hilarity inevitably ensued.

If someone built the stripe of payroll, it would be something.
Let's rephrase the question - Is there any reason consumer ISP's don't follow BCP38?

There is almost no reason whatsoever for clients to spoof their public IP address. Obviously, there are reasons to SNAT at the carrier level for load balance or routing purposes.

It seems from https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/master/packages/simpl... that in the live version you'll be specifying which cache to use; this could be global, provided via React's old or new Context APIs, or passed down through props. And you could always write your own fetcher factory if you want to do something really custom; there's nothing special about the SimpleCacheProvider, and it doesn't use any React internals.

The unions have crazy complex pay rules.

For example, in the private sector, if my boss goes away on a 2 week vacation, usually the boss might delegate someone to answer questions and possibly run meetings... but that delegated person doesn't get paid more.

However, the public sector unions have negotiated that the delegated person get a pay bump for those 2 weeks only while the boss is away.
We have laws against trading on Sundays here in Norway too. They might well have started as religiously justified laws but they are nonetheless popular here where the vast bulk of the population is non-religious and a substantial fraction avowed atheist. We don't want our day of quiet disturbed.

and possibly large scale transmutation. Disassembling the gas giants might be enough for some designs.

My understanding is that it isn't physically possible to construct rigid spheres or rings in that orbit, so it would be an orbital swarm of some kind, with the elements able to actively correct for the inevitable perturbations.

It sounds like you are describing curves that are strictly convex. Curves that are convex, but not strictly convex, can intersect their tangents at more than one point, or even at every point.

I'm going by the definition of convex function given in Rudin's "Principles of Mathematical Analysis", Apostol's "Calculus", Wikipedia, and MathWorld.

In the end, it seems a bit like "why is $social_network hard" I mean, why is it hard to show my my social graph?

And the answer is: it isn't. The issue is building a system that deals with everybody's social graph. Because you have in your social feed one person that has few friends (easy), that other person that is followed by several people and they leave lots of comments (and you are loading their information when the post is shown - and of course there's no way of sharding that so your info can be read from one shard exclusively) and everybody has their list of blocked persons, other permissions than on top of that you have things like "algorithmic reordering", prioritization, paid promotions, etc
You're a hardware vendor. You've created a new embedded CPU chip. Since it's new, gcc doesn't support it yet - and may never, if it gets no sales. But nobody's going to buy it if there isn't a C compiler for it. So you, the hardware vendor, kind of have to do vendor-supported programming tools, or your new chip will never sell.

So what's your alternative to vendor-supported tools? Only use the standard chips that are already supported? That doesn't sound like progress. Expect people to design in a chip where there are no tools? That's not going to fly. Expect gcc to support every brand-new chip, whether or not it has any sales? The gcc people seem unlikely to see it your way.

So, what is your alternative?

Professor Peterson. His university psychology lecture classroom recordings are available on YouTube - https://m.youtube.com/jordanpetersonvideos?uid=L_f53ZEJxp8Tt...

Watch some of his lecturing that isn't about gender and see that he's passionate, engaging, knowledgable, human, visibly wants to help his students grow into better more considered people, and if "half the population" choose to take offense at one of his opinions that alone doesn't define him.
That handwriting is lovely; mine is unreadable, but indeed the older I get, the more I program on paper. And it pays off; less bugs and generally better results in my field. The break shit mentality never worked but it definitely does not work in embedded. You lose a lot of time and probably prototypes (actual money) if you work like that. Writing things out and testing them in your head with maybe some level of formal proofs on paper (they do not have to be complete, just a lot of deep thinking) really saves us time and money.

There's a bit of snobbiness in different areas of tech, although there also are in different areas of academia and research. At the end of the day, the most successful people are the ones who wouldn't dismiss a DS who didn't know "Jaccard index" or "the Halting Problem".
Thanks Google! Now I know that I am a ML guy, as an economist and econometrician. Yes, we shoot this on all kind of stuff, though with a clear business acumen or economic policy thinking.
I'm all for choosing the best tool for the job (even if it's against conventional wisdom), but I don't really follow the arguments made here.

He talks about how he launched a "high traffic" Aliexpress-style marketplace using an embedded K/V store.

Is the marketplace website running off of a single machine with no failover plan when the host machine dies? Is there no need to generate sales reports from external applications that want to pull data from the same database? Is having no fixed schema really an advantage when dealing with orders and financial data? Are saving serialization time and "tcp transport costs" by keeping the app and data on the same machine a big advantage given that everything is a huge single point of failure?

I'm not trying to be too critical. If you want to launch an app very quickly and only have the budget for one machine to ever run it on and you are the only consumer of the generated data, I could see how this would be an appealing approach. But it also dismisses the important reasons most services aren't designed and deployed this way (redundancy, sharing data with other applications, financial data integrity, extensibility, etc).
It was always a website in nice packaging. Actually I don't want slack engineers to build a semi web browser, it's already crappy enough with the good foundations. A rebuild only increases one thing: bugs. Although Slack runs slow and GIFs in background are like CPU stress tests it does not have major bugs in functionality. Never touch a running system... it's easy to rebuild a simple chatroom experience but Slack is far from simple... it has a vast amount of features on closer look.
G Suite has been called in the past "Google for Work", "Google Enterprise", "Google Business", "Google Apps", "Google Apps for Business", "Google Apps for Work", and I probably forget some more. It's really insane.

The 'feudal lords' are not the 1%. They would be the .1% or the .01%. I imagine the latter two remain a much more static environment.

Also, the 1% in this article is not even defined. After some digging it looks like it is Gross Adjusted Income. There are CEOs who wouldn't be considered in the 1% because they take salaries of $1 while making millions in stock options - it is such a ridiculous metric.

Inequality is about wealth as much as, if not more than, wage.
yes, it is sort of like a russian nesting doll of incompetence. the fuckups are nested hierarchically inside the earlier fuckups.

You cannot have a "trusted hash" if you cannot trust the delivery mechanism (unencrypted and unauthenticated TCP).

The content of the delivered payload (your blog and your "trusted hash") can be altered by anyone in transit.

When you take unencrypted and unauthenticated TCP and upgrade to encrypted and authenticated TLS, only then can you begin to have trust.

I see testimonies here in comments by freelancers who are using 10xmanagement to source work. This specific product posted here seems to be for something else: you have a gig lined up, but want to be represented.

I appreciate the endorsements, but am now curious about the main product: how do I get on the 10xmanagement list of software engineers to be considered for gigs? I don't see a publicly visible way to apply. Is it really via referral only?

If so, where do I go to find a referral? Luck? Research existing "10x developers" and get them to like me?

What are the requirements to becoming a "10xer," aside from the potential for referral?

EDIT: Ah, I did not read the FAQ: https://www.10xmanagement.com/faq/ -- tl;dr as the response below suggests, probably need to contact them. As far as I can tell, they're basically operating as a standalone agency, so it's not much different than applying for a job interview anywhere else.
A valid point. I don't know why it was downvoted since it counterpoints the argument he was responding to.

And, often times that discussion leads to a decision maker saying - that shouldn't be the case, it's your problem, not ours that you can't handle that.

So you end up assigning someone to 8+ hours of work to do it, you also have to end up having 2-4 meetings on the topic, and on and on.
