Sadly, not many organizations of this type do exist, you are correct, particularly I'd imagine, in some parts of the globe.

But on occasion, temporarily, teams and organizations like this do exist. I've worked in them. It's how stuff gets built initially before the game players take over.

Because these power structures are _not_ axioms of groups but rather symptoms of productive decay.
This is important, but Safari has a stable market position too (macOS + iOS), so the worst case scenario will not be as lousy as the early 2000s situation w/IE.

I tried to switch to FF completely - for dev work and all - late last year. The dev tools were just not as good as Chrome/Chromium. I use FF for browsing. I'll try to make the dev switch again, starting today.
But Caltech records are not. I took Caltech salaries for carpenters from Glassdoor and compared them with median salaries for carpenters in California to get an idea of the university premium/discount. Then applied that to scientific glass blower salaries in California. It's not perfect, but it's at least reasonable.

I could not find a scientific glass blower salary in the California public records system. I looked, perhaps they are titled under something else?

Highly Effective Methods of Natural Depression Relief
Serious question: how does this not just become a race to the bottom salary/compensation-wise the same way other remote sites like upwork have become? If I have to compete with others from all over the world who will settle for a lot less salary-wise, how do I even compete at all? I've got several years of programming experience, but I've never been able to secure jobs through sites like upwork because I'm unwilling to lower my rate to minimum-wage levels when I have a family and a desire to eat.

I think it is more a matter of how populism is defined: the policies or the stated goal?

Look at the USSR and the way they treated their workers. Taken for granted and undersupplied, given grandiose mandates to live up to from the uninvolved above to deliberately gives lung cancer to union leaders via minutes long xray. The USSR was "for the workers". The Technocrats weren't really scientific or engineering based, just a moronic faschiod cult which called for a power based currency and no interest or accumulation - ignoring the value of other inputs or accumulation of growth. And then there is all of the violence committed in the name of religions calling for peace....

The point is never trust the pretense. Populist movements/groups are untrustworthy by defining themselves by the pretense instead of the policy. This does not apply to some policies called populist.

Moving up the bonus payment dates in the Great Depression,
safer working conditions, raising the minimium wage, shorter hours, Roman land reform after the farmland had been illicitly shifted past the legal limits per owner, even more radical goals like Georgist "only the value of the land itself is taxed - scaled appropriately", shifting to direct democracy are all fine - a given policy may or may not work as intended but they are not an easy direct road for some megalomaniac to power.

Populist groups are untrustworthy for the same reason as theocracies. It isn't operating upon the basis of say treating fellow man as a brother that is bad but the actual practices.
Similar to how cd key protection originally was limited to skilled crackers but as things like SecureRom became normal so did tools that automatically removed the protection from software.
While there is some unknowable risk, Theranos was in a completely different realm in terms of the mismatch between her technological aspirations and the feasibility of current technology. From the interview, Holmes appears to lack the knowledge and even the curiosity to understand the existing technology, making her company essentially a blind bet. This is enormously more irresponsible than the technological bets that FB, Apple, Uber, etc make.

Thank you. I was thrown off because I couldn't believe I was looking at post-12pm. Those are pretty extreme circumstances.

In my own case I've been tracking caffeine use and some helpful strategies are:

- 30mg after a brief afternoon nap

- 50mg to 60mg after a long afternoon nap that resulted in grogginess

- 100mg after a terrible night's sleep and before a long meeting

- Extreme care if I have an exhaustion headache due to lack of sleep and overproduction; caffeine often triggers migraine here
I'll take Occam's razor on this one. This is much better explained by people becoming more aware of something after having been exposed to it recently [1]. They talk about it with a friend, and suddenly the ad that usually goes under the radar now goes above the consciousness threshold. It connects to more neurons that usual, and thus makes a complete cycle in the brain.

Furthermore, this is highly amplified by marketing tactics. Their friend would have been exposed to the same campaign, and this might be why he/she talked about it. This is the co-occurence that the second person actually reacts to. It knows the statistics are skewed on this one. Something is up.

I would not be surprised if Facebook campaigns are rolled out clusters by clusters of friends. It takes repetition for consumers to remember a message, and this is an efficient way to create it.

That's the nature of social ads.

If anything, it informs us of the emergent phenomena that can arise in a social graph.

Most of the comments on here relate to aspects of remote work and its limitations, but I haven’t seen anyone say what seems obvious to me - Having an office is nice! It’s good for me to have a place that my brain associates exclusively with work. It’s nice to interact with teammates in person. If I need quiet time or even if the weather is nice and I don’t feel like going into the office, I can go work from a cafe somewhere. I certainly see the appeal of remote work, but to me, having an office with the option of working from home is preferable.
May be evidence that the additional training/work s/he's put in is paying off. I agree that the post does not show a lack of written communication skills.
Probably worth having a look at this: https://youtu.be/c9Xt6Me3mJ4?t=4196

Embedded shouldn't rhyme with "C".
It's when you build a business on a technology and then have to re-invest to rebuild the product, that's when it becomes an issue. Think of all the start ups that built running businesses on Angular 1.

Remote work in the US and great talent from the same time zones in South and Central Americas has a lot to do with it.
They would have to instruct all their users to start blocking qeys.io. Looks like this isn't designed to be foolproof, but to deter most from cheating.
I think you gotta have a good understanding of the domain and use cases you want to hit (which is really hard, especially so when it's a general purpose programming language whose domain is... everything), and design from the start with a vision of hitting those use cases, instead of having to shoe-horn them in later.

Of course, use cases will still evolve, and your initial understanding is always flawed, there's no magic bullet, designing general purpose software (or a language or platform!) meant to hit a wide swath of use cases flexibly is _hard_.

And then, yeah, like others have said, you need skilled, experienced, and strong leadership. You need someone (or a small group of people) who can say 'no' or 'not yet' or 'not like this' to features -- but also who can accurately assess what features _do_ need to be there to make the thing effective. And architects/designers who can design the lower levels of abstraction solidly to allow expected use cases to be built on top of them cleanly.

But yeah, no magic bullet, it's just _hard_.

As developer-consumers of software, we have to realize that _maturity_ is something to be valued, and a trade-off for immature but "clean" is not always the right trade-off -- and not to assume that the immature new shiny "clean" thing will _necessarily_ evolve to do everything you want and be able to stay that way. (On the other hand, just cause something is _old_ doesn't _always_ mean it's actually _mature_ or effective. Some old things do need to be put down). But resist "grass is always greener" evaluation that focuses on what you _don't_ like about the original thing (it's the pain points that come to our attention), forgetting to take into account what it is doing for you effectively.

I'm not sure why you are providing that second link as proof that they don't log. That is just a link to the same story being discussed here and the same one I am quoting in my comment.

Also the first link continues its insistence on using the phrase "user activity" logging. That's a rather nebulous term. Nowhere is "user activity" defined and it's certainly not a term that meaning in the context of syslog/journald. Does "user activity" logging preclude RADIUS authentication?
What is the "freedom to contract" that you keep bringing up. Contracts are legal instruments defined and enforced by the government, so if the government says you can't do x in a contract then you can't do x.

>That's hyperbole
Because you are stating that anything other than absolute freedom is central planning.

Beyond all of this, you started off this thread by saying that you think this will bias the journalists and affect their integrity. You've moved the goalposts multiple times and it's obvious you just don't like unions. If you want to have a discussion about that then put you're argument all out on the table instead of shoving it in after saying something provocative
My experience with offshoring is that you need to put a lot of due diligence into hiring. I've worked with excellent Indian engineers, but we really had to interview a lot before we found them.
Thanks, fixed the typo.

I'll include a section in the privacy policy on what's sent in the request, which is just the application UUID and the licence key. Our service then uses the origin of the request to determine the domain.
i worked as a server last school year for a local korean restaurant, and as a 20-something who grew up in a rural community with nothing more diverse than panda express, holy crap. what amazing flavors. i'm a regrettably picky eater but that restaurant had me trying everything on the menu. the one thing i never expected to like was the kimchi and pickled radish, but now i'm in love.

the only bummer is it turned me off to anyone's kimchi but the owner's. nothing else tastes right.
I feel like i'm missing something obvious here. This is for "webapps" which have been "licensed". Who is running licensed webapps without some form of user account? Either a login or an API key, which can easily be turned off if the person stops paying. If i have that, why do i need this? If i don't have that, haven't i just totally fallen down on the job of controlling access to my system?

What am i missing here?
I think another way to look at it:

Many Indians who were legitimately good ended up in high paying jobs where they then used that money and skill to emigrate to countries with more comfortable standards of living. In my area, the Indian immigrant community has exploded, and almost entirely within the technology sector to start with, but now rapidly expanding to other areas as family members sponsor other family members and so on.

The wonderful halo effect is of course that family members who immigrated with the technical household head, but don't work in tech, are now employed at, opening and running all manner of businesses as well.

As a result I have a vast community of new, highly skilled and educated neighbors who are also ambitious and motivated.
I only realized when I started traveling internationally how much we (perhaps over-) value reliability in the US. We really pay a lot in terms of work hours and stress to gain what is sometimes marginally more predictability and reliability.

In Mexico, Belize, southeast Asia, and southern Europe, I found everything to be much less reliable than I was used to. Everyone spent a lot time more waiting around. But I felt happier and more relaxed, and the people around me seemed to as well.

I think it might be more cultural than you seem to think.

Check out Delphix (https://www.delphix.com). It provides a ZFS-backed copy of your production database per developer using snapshots, with rollback. Disclaimer: a friend worked there, I haven’t used it personally, and it’s not free.
I guess it depends on which team you are in. I have worked for some of the well know MNCs(not FANG) in Bangalore, some of the teams I was part of did really hard core development work. Some of my team members in Bangalore were more competent than our US counterpart.
It was just an anecdotic example of a more general habit that also affects office jobs. I heard that directly from people who have an IT team in India, and the answers here at HN also seem to imply that this is a wider shared experience.

You can get rid of most, if not all, of that with Lineage OS.
I can do like 3-4 hours of productive work a day realistically - after that I lose focus. I can push this in some periods - but that's the ammount of time I limit myself to be functional over long term.

If I need to waste that time sifting trough boilerplate than I'm pretty upset because I get less shit done in that time window.

Exactly. By detecting and letting you know what happened, you'll be able to take action. You know who you built the application for and will most likely still have their phone number which you can use to ask them what's going on.
Something that I learned after being part of a startup back when doing web servers in Tcl was cool (AOLServer and such), and Zope was hip, was that I never wanted to work again in software stacks that lacked a JIT or AOT compiler for production code.

Dimon, Buffett Urge CEOs to End Quarterly Earnings Forecasts
It's a pretty good read, mostly about the prevalence of Pervitin usage. I found it extremely worthwhile but drug discourse is my cup of tea- I tend to get a bit geeky about it.
It's a cultural problem that has arisen across much of tech and is embedded within it - if you're going to have a science based business, then science says that while you may have picked your initial hypothesis because you love and believe in it, the only thing that matters after that first step is measurable and provable results. I see this a lot in the machine learning space "We've got this great ML solution all ready to go.... annnd we don't even know what linear regression is" Start your journey on a dream, but navigate by facts, you must.

This should clearly show this as time per request rather than requests per second, since these are really trivial requests and aren't going to be representative of actual performance differences in the real world.
"...these projects devolved into internet searches..."

This is the 3rd millennium. Learning how to ask questions and find answers is a core competency. Along side critical thinking and problem solving, of course.

I now keenly remember a 4th grade teacher who would drill the entire class with random trivia style questions. "Where is the capital of Botswana?" "What is the root word for 'homage'?" And us teams of kids would race to find the answers. Great fun.

If home work assignments are easily fulfilled by quick searches and copypasta, the teacher is being lazy, not the students.
It is really surprising that the same frameworks are much slower running pypy than cpython. I'm assuming all the result are run from cold... Considering that webserver rund for long period of time, it'd be interesting to measure after several runs, and see how the JITted platforms (pypy, java etc...) place in comparison.
I take your point and my choice of words could have been better, though I'd note that valid methodologies in social science are far from limited to quantitative, which is what you seem to be suggesting, and plenty of students can get through a social science degree relying almost entirely on qualitative methodology.
LOL Disadvantage: "The need to prepare food."

Are we talking about generally existing as a human being? Yeah, until they invent food replicators you're gonna have to prepare your own food. Get used to it.

I'd say getting to use your own kitchen to prepare your own delicious and nutritious meals is one of the prime advantages of remote work. It saves you way more money over going out to eat, and it's a much more healthy alternative to blindly trusting a restaurant or some food service company like Sysco.

Then again, I am a bit of a maverick in that I make all of my lunches at home, even when I have an office I must travel to for work. You can do your entire week in advance on a Sunday evening, spending less than $30. Not. A. Hardship.

We really should push back against the catered meals and supposed "perks." That's money the company could have spent on increasing your salary or paying a higher dividend to shareholders. Instead of doing that, they've decided they're going to spend your money on an army of chefs to keep you at the office 24/7.

I'll take the higher pay, greater freedom and autonomy, and my own home cooked meals, thank you much.
> rules are artificial, arbitrary social constructs with zero benefit, while results are concrete

Sounds like "might is right". It's hard to argue that's wrong, you say? Why, then just kill the person who says it's wrong, EZ PZ! After all, only the results matter.
> So how do you get your message out without spending money?

You use the fact people who won't listen unless you spend money won't hear your message.

> Spending money is how people with novel ideas expose it to more people and can hope to compete against established ideas that don’t need to be marketed.

It's also how you mix and dilute your idea into an ocean of meritless crap that nobody would care about unless someone spent money to have the likes of Facebook and Google shout it at them.

It particularly cements the idea that the only way to get novel (usually you'd aim for "good") ideas heard is by paying money to Facebook, Google or that other big media conglomerate (where their money buys "nation-wide local" "news").

Problem is, people with the good novel ideas are usually not the parties with a lot of money (because both are statistically rare).

And that means that the parties with a lot of money will decide which people get heard at all. Regardless whether they have good ideas, novel ideas, or even remotely plausible ideas.
I'm confused by this as well. Though I've seen odd things locally like 7.1 being significantly slower than 7.0 when doing local AB tests.
Ouch. According to facebook debugger, this link has not yet been shared before, a good thing in this case. Fixed it, thanks.
It's for on-premise deployments, where you don't have control over the deployment environment.
Agreed, but it shows the framework that are able to reduce their overhead, since they aren't all at 100% of the fastest.

That was the case with the housing bubble, the tech bubble, etc. Everyone always gets wrapped up in the free money, that they just don't care. The media does, I think, pay attention, but they are in it for money too, so if the positive story is going to get more clicks, they run with that.
