Some blogs are clickbait simply to capture clicks, or maybe the blog is to pad out somebodys resume and the content may as well be lorem ipsum boilerplate becasue nobody is ever going to read it anyway, but having a blog is better than not having a blog (most of the time). IF you have even ONE good article to show somebody then they tend to assume that your entire blog will have around that level of quality. So is wanting Adsense money stupid? No. Even if all the stuff is low quality then it may as well be MY low quality blog that gets all the his amirite? Thats what they're probably trying to do. IDK there are really too many reasons to enumerate...

The Truth is, employers will always want people with degrees.

Show HN: Cannoli – A compiler for a subset of Python written in Rust
I like that option, but barring an order of magnitude more public investment in higher education, I can't see it happening. We're stuck with the school system we have, it seems.
I recently finished the code for my thesis and wanted to share with you all :). The goal of the thesis was to evaluate language features of Python that were hypothesized to cause performance issues. Quantifying the cost of these features could be valuable to language designers moving forward. Some interesting results were observed when implementing compiler optimizations for Python. An average speedup of 51% was achieved across a number of benchmarks. The thesis paper is linked on the GitHub repo, I encourage you to read it!

This was also my first experience with Rust. The Rust community is absolutely fantastic and the documentation is great. I had very little trouble with the "learning curve hell" that I hear associated with the language. It was definitely a great choice for this work.

I also included PyPy in my validation section and "WOW". It blew both Cannoli and CPython out of the water in performance. The work they're doing is very interesting and it definitely showed on the benchmarks I worked with.
So why then does the US military place people according to the ASVAB?
Yeah? Wait until you find out how much harder it is to be in the corporate world after age 40.

Graduate: Say age 22. You have ~20 years to make most of what you're going to make.

I'm not saying it's impossible to work after 40, not at all. I'm just trying to tell anyone who will listen that is is harder and even with full employment in tech, it is still hard to make the kinds of moves I made in my 30s, reinvent myself, and generally do the cool things I want to do.

Formal university settings are not the only way "education" can be conferred/obtained.

Would a person who only knew apprenticeships trust someone who sat through 4 years of theoretical lectures, book learning, and "sample projects", when their expectation is that trained apprentices have worked side-by-side with masters in "the real world" for many years, doing real work that real people depended on?
> It makes sense on a capitalist pays for productivity level but it really doesn't make sense on any other level.

Capitalism doesn't pay for productivity; it pays whatever price it can get away with.
> A winner-take-all game-format would perfectly describe the above phenomenon.

That's not quite true, a winner-take-all with a normally distributed reward should probably also result in a normal distribution of wealth, due to the central limit theorem. If my memory serves me correctly - i am not a professional statistician - it's been long known (but also equally long forgotten) that markets (and for sure many natural risk distributions, like earthquakes), aka, rewards and penalties, are levy-distributed, which has undefined variance, resulting in a pareto distribution.
You have something against IPv5?
The article mentions that Via is useful while the request is bouncing around among proxies, but isn't useful in responses, which is what the article is about.
It would theoretically lead to a lower default rate, as it would dissuade "art history" majors from pursuing that low-paying profession. As it stands now, the people who pursue higher paying majors are subsidizing those who pursue the lower paying majors. You can't seriously say that an engineering major is the same risk as an art history major. Then why should they pay the same interest rate? You aren't going to claim that everyone should pay the same mortgage rate, right?

I'm a software engineer and I developed trading algorithms just by playing around and visualizing data. Once you have historical data, technical indicators and a simple back tester, you can test some trading strategies and get feedback quickly. Graphing the output of your tests to analyze the annual return over time also helps a lot to design algorithms.

I have limited financial knowledge but I would recommend reading about technical analysis and technical indicators (This one is short and sweet https://www.investopedia.com/university/technical/) just so you can grasp the basics.

I generally disagree with your clarification.

University was mostly a core of classes that everybody needed to take, free electives that let me take whichever classes I wanted, and then degree courses which were a subset of my classes.

We over-fixate on the major in these discussions because we look at the crazy American education prices and then think in $/major. But otherwise I'd say university does a decent job of making people credentialize in generally important concepts. And this process helps you in life, like being able to think and speak intelligently on any topic.

I think it's the gross expense of uni that causes us to push people into majors like STEM that can be directly transmuted into dollars. But I don't think that's best for society. And it's an unhealthy approach to education.

For example, if I could redo university, I would've majored in philosophy. It's just obnoxious that I had to make that decision somewhere within age 17-20.

>Some library authors try to make sure their library doesn’t have dependencies.

I can't count the number of times i've looked at a potential dependency only to find that they have massive bugs in some auxiliary part of the library that they decided to do themselves in an attempt to "avoid dependencies".

We have these tools designed to handle a complicated network of dependencies, use them! Don't implement your own cute way of parsing XML just because you want to avoid dependencies! Let the library that is focused on just parsing xml, well tested, widely used, and actively maintained handle XML parsing!

The limiting factor is not the spots for medical students, but rather for residents and fellows, who are primarily funded through medicare/medicaid and the VA.

An interesting post on this is here, although it somewhat contradicts the popular notion that graduate medical education is limited by funding: https://theincidentaleconomist.com/wordpress/gme-federal-fun...

Sorry what? At minimum your company gives $25,000 pay increases, per year? What's the starting salary, a $1,000,000? Can I apply for the janitors position? I'll clean the toilets for a guaranteed additional $25,000+ every year.

So, MugShots.com posts mug shots, which are a matter of public record, but will remove them for a small fee. That's extortion.

But, the government posts judicial proceedings, which are a matter of public record, but for minor crimes will expunge the record for a small fee. That's a perfectly legal government function.

These two situations seem a bit too close for such disparate legal outcomes.

But if you are a child of parents who can finance your college? Absolutely. No question. This is essentially a way to enforce Aristocracy.

Are you sure? $100k in college vs. $100k in S&P 500 ..I think the it's about the same. The grad starts with a -100k deficit (i'm assuming graduate school is included). The Aristocracy perpetuates itself through inheritance. I don't think most college grads, even with the wage premium, feel like aristocrats.

> The coyotes know exactly where the invisible fence begins and ends, without the benefit of ever wearing a shock collar. How do I know? Because they intentionally leave their scat on their side of the invisible fence, creating a demilitarized zone as precise and as well-observed as anything on the Korean peninsula. Occasionally a coyote will try to test our dogs by leaving its scat juuusst over the line on our side of the DMZ.

My question is, why does the human think coyote scat on the other side of the line was precisely placed and scat on his side of the line is an intentional provocation? A more reasonable explanation is that the coyotes don't know exactly where the invisible line is.
> Failed out of engineering= they didnt care

I don't even know how to respond to this... my friends didn't fail out from a lack of effort. You also don't know this but all of my old friends are Mexican - so you are implicitly saying the reason they didn't succeed is because they are lazy Mexicans. I don't think you intended to take this stance.

You likely got tricked with everyone else into believing in social constructionist view that colleges push, everyone is the same unless you can see the differences. Of course they push this because it removes all liability from them for vetting students, and it places blame on failure to the students.

Also I did graduate college and found only the math and advanced CS classes useful(3rd year +).

They may have been wrong in your case, but unless something has changed very recently the numbers still tilt in favor of better long-term results on average for people with college degrees. I know plenty of successful people without degrees but at a macro scale it's not good advice.
You're missing opportunity cost. If you're in school full-time, you're not working full-time. That costs the salary you're not making and the experience you're not getting, on top of what you pay for school plus interest (because unless your parents are rich or you're That Counterexample, you're borrowing).

In return, you go to school, which one hopes is worth the cost over the course of the rest of your life, however you measure it (but here, mostly in currency). Which brings us back to this discussion.
Late 20-something embedded dev here.

This is horseshit.

The bulk of the embedded developers right now are aging boomers who are soon to be exiting the workforce. I barely know anyone else my age who does this stuff.

Yes the ecosystem is changing. There's been a "recent" movement towards ARM-all-the-things, even the little bit-banging chips that everyone is talking about. You can get uCs with clock rates from the single digit MHz all the way to GHz with loads of features. Most people seem to be running an RTOS on top of anything over a few Mhz but there are a few of us who do things the hard way when things get tight.

That's just the uC stuff though. There's so much more going on in the industry. Someone needs to write the windows drivers for your system, same with pretty much everything that's going on in the linux kernel, android, etc. Embedded wraps the entire computing space. Can't really say the same for any other discipline.

On top of all of this, there's a solid demand from the "mission critical" world for good devs. Airliners, satellites, rockets and cars all, by necessity, run extremely thin stacks consisting almost entirely of C (though some of us are starting the push for Rust). You can't just Python your way to glory in a fly-by-wire controller because that's how you get people killed.

Yes, the pay is mostly shit unless you work for a large company. Qualcomm and similar typically offers six figures starting. I work in aerospace but they're starting to get desperate as they no longer get to pay nothing for getting to build cool flying stuff. YMMV here.
> Interestingly enough, microcontroller manufacturers are currently in a big push to provide developers with high-level software frameworks and tools that abstract out the low-level hardware.

Ha. I wish.

We're usually working with chips where the software from the chip vendor isn't done, and isn't going to be done before we need to ship a product.

And then there's issues where the vendor calls it 'done', and it isn't done, and we have to fill in the gaps.

To hopefully give some encouragement: you can for sure play all modern games on a game controller with only a single hand, but it might take time to learn how to do so. There is a speed runner (who holds at least one world record) that has a disability preventing him from using more than one hand when gaming, and he regularly used modern controllers. You can see his Twitter here: https://mobile.twitter.com/halfcoordinated and can easily look up recordings of him playing (with a camera focused on his hand) at games done quick. I recommend his Vanquish run.

Wall Street greed did this! The financiers got their hooks into higher education. I'm friends with a person who is the head of financial aid at a major Mid-Atlantic university. She saw it all go down during the Bill Clinton years.

It was all sold as helping people but all they did was help themselves. A lot of university administrators are guilty, too. There were likely kickbacks and other illegal schemes taking place.
I strongly recommend reading "So Good They Can't Ignore You" by Cal Newport. It's full of good ideas but one of the key insights is about spending time building up career capital and then leveraging that to get what you really want.

I don't think anyone else has said this but it's worth noting that most coding jobs don't involve many hours of being alone. I've been in the industry full time since I graduated (a little over ten years ago) and it's been non-stop meetings and people asking for help and spending time with customers and mentoring and demo days and offsites and brainstorming...

I think compute stands in for computing power so `amount of compute' to me means `amount of computing power'. If I were to use the terms calculation or computation I'd pluralise them so you'd get `amount of calculations' and `amount of computations' from `amount of compute'.
Thailand is very liberal with their visas. Actually you don't need any to enter Thailand. You get 30-days stamp in airport on arrival which you can prolong for another 30 days by doing border run.
Yes, flexibility. You don't need to have 2^24 hosts for a 24-bit address space to start becoming cramped. You have to divide up that space into subnets that roughly match your physical network structure, which depends on accurately anticipating future growth; otherwise you'll have to suffer the pain of renumbering later on.

The real benefit of a /48 or /32 IPv6 subnet isn't that you never run out of individual addresses. It's that you're practically guaranteed never to run out of identifiers at any level of the hierarchy.

How to Boost Your YouTube Channel with Giveaways
I don't have a degree and it almost never fails to come up. Ultimately I flunked out (for a variety of reasons). I've done a lot of A/B(/C/D/E) testing with my resume:

- Don't include education - I'm asked about it. Every. Single. Time.

- Include the years I attended college - Asked why I didn't finish. Every. Single. Time.

- Include college in a misleading way - I did a summer extension program for 2 years while in high school at a similar college. I list both colleges, my start year, my end year, and what my degree track was. I do not claim that I have a degree, but nearly everyone assumes I do. I'm almost never asked about it.

Any time I am asked about it I'm honest to the degree they need ("I had to take a break from school due to family issues", which is true: my family had an issue with the number of "F"s I was getting).

I've actually had managers who found out after being hired who told me "if I had known that, I wouldn't have hired you"

Ultimately I think there are a lot of industries that a degree requirement is a good thing (I really want my doctor to actually have an MD), a lot of industries where certification is sufficient (I don't particularly think an LMFT needs to have a full degree), but the vast majority of industries shouldn't require it, and filtering for that is a cop-out.

I've been at Google for a number of years. Whether I had a degree was brought up during the recruiter conversations; nobody cared.

It seems like it might be a good business to offer to refinance loans for, say, CS students at top-tier schools at a lower rate than the government loans.

Ideally that would raise the default rate of the government loans and push up the interest rates of the arts students. Right now the STEM majors are subsidizing everyone else if the interest rates are the same.
Disagree. There are too many STEM students already. It's just that plenty of web development shops are okay with hiring a physicist. It's a waste of money and time to encourage more STEM education unless the student is actually passionate about the subject in itself.

The downsides of the current trend are:

- pretentious web development job posts requiring master's degrees in CS "or related field" (as if physics prepares you for jQuery).

- debt-ridden, unfulfilled scientists relegated to the above
