It's easy to fall prey for psychopaths trying to second guess their intentions. "This can't be staged, that would be an unnecessary risk. Had they wanted to get rich quick they would have lied about this other thing instead". True intentions are illogical to other people, because they are the result of a limited, narcissistic and self centered world view.

(Not making any real life connections here, I am absolutely not qualified to call anyone medical terms, but in the subthead about clinical psychopathy it seemed important to point out.)

The corporate tax rate has been reduced to something like 20%. Most companies in the US pay much less than that. The state is already subsidizing a lot for big corporations.

Some part of which flows to investors who purchase securities. Capital gains and dividends are taxed.

Companies can't earn record profits without government running deficit (by healthcare/infra expenditure) and without people running out of savings (by spending on the goods and services being produced)

Part of the value produced will be taxed in the US while the individuals and governments all over the world run out of saving and run into deficits respectively. All that flows to the US. Stopping this is much worse for the US.
The commands you list aren't too bad because they get quickly learned through use. And "grep" at least is pronounceable and feels strangely apt as a command name.

In general though I think the terseness of the standard Unix commands is a problem, particularly for less often used commands. Even after many years of using them I still get "du" and "df" confused, for example.

Please do some research before you post. Where is your evidence that Binance is an "ICO Scam"? Binance is clearly past the ICO stage and has grown into an actual company. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-28/crypto-s-...

Binance is one of the most credible cryptocurrency exchanges out there. They are the #1 exchange by traded value. As I stated before, they are profitable, and based on the value of BNB they achieved a $1B valuation in less than 6 months. The article you posted doesn't disprove any of these points. The article barely addresses Binance in the first place. In fact, it actually supports them as Binance makes profit off wash trades.

Furthermore, as others have pointed out, the article is fundamentally wrong as in fact other companies have reached a $1B faster than Bird has.
They are mentioned in the article. Both of them are backronyms, though:

insurance doesn't work when the event is controllable (like pregnancy) and happens regularly to everyone.

Imagine an insurance company offering to sell to a business a plan for each employee, which covers their salary while they take leave.

The premium of this plan must be lower than their total cost in salary while they are on leave, since if it was higher, the business can just pay the salary!

Therefore, the insurance company must cover the cost by taking on the risk that some employee don't take parental leave (and thus, profit off those premiums).

But in aggregate, "everybody" reproduces. Therefore, there'd be nobody to "earn" the premium from. So the only remaining possibility to profit is from making interest from the premiums not yet paid out (which, while significant, can't really be as profitable as any existing insurance product).

> Then you do your risk analysis and determine if the risk of the person not working out is something you can stomach

Yeah, duh. Apparently you do realize this tautologically obvious point despite your churlish and contrarian argumentation against it. The need to do risk analysis as it relates to potential pregnancy was the main thrust of the post that you dismissively replied to by saying that any business can do equally well with 9 employees as with 10 as if it were some kind of fundamental truth - despite that assertion being trivially easily disproven even by your own logic.
MS-GitHub Enterprise would seem to address a lot of where TFS otherwise lands. Once TFS incorporates GitHub workflows and infrastructure I think anything off of that core is gonna struggle mightily.

I mean... as it stands TFS struggles with mindshare, features, and engagement. While the name and marketing will persist, I think the underlying technical reality will be the continued cannibalisation of that offering by the superior model of git and its cross-language appeal.
You are absolutely right about that. Not just awk but it happens in almost all programming languages when you're tempted to write a very long code in a super nested `array_map(array_filter(array_keys(.. .` type of expression.

Don't know why it gives me joy to write those things even when I know it would be far better to write the same in three nested for loops (which are less error prone, more maintainble and gives more flexibility like easy to "break").

Wow. That's a divorce that went rather poorly.

He has an affair. They get a divorce. To get revenge, his ex-wife tells a journalist that he once cheated a speeding ticket. Investigation reveals she knows that because she helped him do it. They both go to prison.

This revenge idea was planned with a lawyer/judge friend of the ex-wife. When the plan backfired, the judge falsified documents to mislead investigators. The judge got the longest sentence of the three of them and was disbarred.

What a trainwreck.
Nature is also not an Open Access or Open Science journal at all, and furthermore, does not require authors to publish all of their data for replication purposes.

It's incredibly hypocritical. If people cared about Open Science, they'd publish in PeerJ or PLOS One, but they care a lot more about saying they have pub credits in Nature.

Vocabulary correlates with IQ about as strongly as SAT score, yet vocabulary can clearly be hugley improved with practice.

Even if correlation with IQ somehow proved score durability, a correlation of 0.76 or even .8 is low enough to allow for huge swings away from IQ in a very large percentage of the population.

A big chunk of students practicing and increasing their scores 200-300 points could easily be hiding in that 0.76 correlation.

>As far as algorithms and vocabulary go, most people have limited ability to follow complex algorithms because that requires a lot of working memory, which correlates with... Intelligence!

Most algorithms at that level are designed to be written out step by step explicitly to reduce working memory requirements.

Part of SAT prep is learning algorithms for solving word problems that reduce working memory load by memorizing patterns in the questions and writing down the components in a standardized form.

You said

>As far as algorithms and vocabulary go

And then never mentioned vocabulary.

It has nothing to do with working memory and most definitely can be improved dramatically with practice.

One more thing. The SAT was rewritten in 2016 to be far more content based, so the correlation with IQ will likely fall even further.

The Theranos case clearly illustrates why. Fraud by the top executives of a company, who lied about what their technology can do to raise a bunch of money, and endangered patients in the process--that is a story you can explain to a jury. Even if you think there are "bankers" (curiously, you do not identify specific bankers) who broke the law, good luck explaining to a jury exactly what anyone did that was illegal.

I'd also posit that this is a very good thing. You shouldn't be able to put people in jail for a crime you can't explain to a group of a dozen ordinary people.

You can already use GitHub in visual studio. MS didn't have to buy GitHub to integrate with it.

Pretty much the best that can happen is GitHub will now get worse as MS puts in functionality to do with their tools. The worst is they really fuck it up like they did with Skype.
Just as an item of general interest, "sabotage" was (I understand; I'm no historian!) a common charge when targets weren't met.

I've just finished reading Anne Applebaum's book on the famine in Ukraine; if impossible targets aren't met, pick some people and say they sabotaged production. The problem isn't the system, and the problem certainly isn't the impossible demands and the purges and the terrified lies from the cadres and the disasters of collectivisation and the self-defeating elimination of the best workers (in Ukraine, owning a few cows and being good at farming could qualify you as a 'kulak' and an enemy of the people, ready for execution or the gulag, so of course the most competent farmers were eliminated early). None of that; the problem is saboteurs. Pick someone, charge him and execute him (or send him to a gulag).

You keep saying Theranos. Are you of the opinion that we should treat all technical startup founders as probable criminals? I think where Theranos investors failed was when they confused media hype with due diligence. I'm perfectly ok to live in a society where imprudent investors get occasionally burned, if the hype can also put the spotlight on real, non-criminal founders that would have no chance otherwise.

This is far from getting funded, it's a technical concept and we have absolutely no ability or relevant information upon which to call it a fraud.

Me. Basically I have been programming long enough and perhaps with a varied enough CV and varied enough skills and some major accomplishments mixed among just normal stuff that I do not seem to get hired as an employee anymore but people are very happy to hire me as a consultant (which I make more money at mostly)

I remember there were several interviews where people suggested I would want to do more than they wanted me to do, one example: that I would not be happy just doing frontend development and they were worried I would go fix issues in ElasticSearch, and I asked "well of course I will do what I'm hired to, but why wouldn't you want me to go fix issues in ElasticSearch if I'm caught up on my frontend tickets?"

That was probably not a good thing to say, because I didn't get that job.

The idea of jail is that your personal freedom is taken away as punishment for a number of days.

How much opportunity cost those days have, or how much money you lose as a result of your jail time, is irrelevant. The punishment is taking away your personal freedom.

Jail time is a fair punishment: Nobody likes having their freedom taken from them. There is no need to scale it.

But its different for fines. If you drive a 100k€ car, you're not going to give a shit about a 50€ fine for speeding. And my personal experience seems to suggest this is true: Drivers of expensive cars often ignore speed limits and "no parking" signs.

So one thing we could do is add a mandatory jail sentence for speeding. You drive to fast, you go to jail for a day. But that seems a bit harsh, so maybe we stick with the fine, but make it so that it also hurts people who make a lot of money.
Yes, it is. At the higher end of the socioeconomic scale, your network becomes extremely important, and who you marry will certainly form a huge part of your network.

Many people don't realize, but that actually is a core purpose of selective higher education institutions. Biology and physics is the same at a community college versus Princeton, but you don't get the opportunity to meet the kids of diplomats and board members etc.

You also want to sprinkle some natural, hard working geniuses in there and you have a good recipe for a network that can take advantage. Usually for their own monetary gain.
The goal is deterrence, not inflicting pain. If speeding fines where set at $3 people would probably just treat them as a cost of traveling. To someone very wealthy current fines may essential be that.

Jail has both the purpose of deterrence and rehabilitation. Since the method is essentially depriving criminals of their time and freedom then wealth has nothing to do with it. Either way it's probably equally painful for a CEO as a factory worker.

As for driving licenses, they are administrative expenses not fines. I assume you already know this so I'm not sure what your point is.

The problem is not any particular hosting service such as GitHub, it's that the pointer in your paper ss relying on a single point of failure.

There was a bit of drama several years ago when Megaupload was seized and shut down; various small/free projects lost access to the only copy of some of their files. Like your paper, important documents had evolved in forums, which linked to the file hosting service for files that could not be uploaded to the forum. A few projects were the canonical documentation for something that the original author had abandoned, the first result in Google couldn't be updated creating the same pointer problem as your reference in a paper.

At the time, a lot of people talked about finding a "replacement file hosting service" in the same way people currently talk about finding a replacement for GitHub. Moving to a different service is still a single point of failure. Instead, when you want to preserve access to data in the long term, you need to assume any single service might fail and build in redundancy.

Instead of saying, "[things] are available online at [URL]", you should include in the paper something like:

The code and simulation results are
available as an archive named:
foo_project-2018-06-16.zip
The file has the following checksums:
MD5: 1271ed5ef305aadabc605b1609e24c52
SHA1: ab69db8315af7de6e673a6ddf128d415157a7c3f
(...more...)
The file was originally hosted at:
$GITHUB_URL
$GITLAB_URL
${OTHER_HOSTING_SERVICE_URLS[@]}
$INTERNET_ARCHIVE_URL
$AUTHOR_UNIVERSITY_URL
$COLLAB_UNIVERSITY_URL

With tools like git (or rsync, etc), making multiple copies of a project is very easy. Redundancy protects against some risks, but including checksums (and any other relevant metadata) makes content addressable searching possible. Even if all of the URLs in your paper eventually become defunct, someone reading the paper in the future may be able to find your data by searching for the file's hash.

The hosting service isn't the (primary) problem; the paper needs to include a pointer that is more robust than a single reference to a single path on a single server.
IDK if that's true. Consider that a real alcoholic drinks all day long and truly can not control this. Typically they tolerate alcohol better than the rest of us, but still, there also comes a time when they are simply bombed and then they are (really) a huge danger.

Depends on the company. The level of tech skills required for an organisation depends heavily on what the company does, what technologies they're already using, etc. What Google requires for a mid level developer is different from what a smaller, less tech focused company will require.
>Talking bad about anything or anyone

Personally, I think this should be near the top, and I think arrogance[1] should be near the bottom. And not just for interviews. If you are known for giving credit where credit is due? that's going to get you more help at this job; that's going to get you better contacts, more recommendations for your next job. You will see your co-workers again. Generally, if you can say something good and true about a co-worker, you should.

There are few times when as an individual contributor where it's in your interest to say something bad about someone else. I mean, I'm not saying to lie, just if you can't say something nice, keep your mouth shut.

[1]Yes, yes, socially skilled people see arrogance as a different thing from confidence, not just a matter of degree. But if you are that socially skilled, you don't need these tips. Me? I see it as a sort of linear progression from low self-esteem through confidence and then into arrogance. For the tech industry, this is a good enough (though incorrect) model. I mean, you can go too far in one direction or the other, but at least for me it seems to be a reasonably tunable thing, and I've seen far more people fail interviews due to being too far on the shy/humble/lacks confidence end of that scale than the other way around.
>Sure. Everybody likes grand gestures. Nobody likes paying for them. As a social responsibility it's not on private businesses to cover the cost.

That's just a law away. Some countries do have private businesses to cover the cost.

You could do what Okta does with its PassProtect [1][2][3] browser extension and use the Have I Been Pwned API along with k-Anonymity [4][5][6].

PassProtect is a browser plugin that makes it easy for people to see in the moment whether or not their password was exposed in a breach. With a real time, as-you-type notification, PassProtect quickly alerts users of possible "riskier" passwords so they can take action immediately and without compromising privacy. By using k-anonymity, PassProtect ensures that your passwords are never seen, stored, or sent over the network during this checking process.

We’ve also made it easy for developers to add this functionality directly into their app or website. By also surfacing related information and breach details, PassProtect promotes security awareness for users while relieving developers of the burden of tracking breaches and maintaining a homegrown tool.
