Even at $100 these would be very worth it to me. Can't read in cars, and can't ride in ocean boats in any kind of swell. Twisty mountain roads as a passenger are bad. I even get a little nauseous on city busses. Barfing doesn't look cool, so the dork factor is an easy price to pay.

The concept makes sense, unlike copper/magnet bracelets.

Dramamine doesn't help me. The "Relief Band" that shocks the wrist does help with stomach nausea, but not the head wooziness (https://www.reliefband.com/). Also no food, ginger, or small amounts of carbs doesn't help. Looking at the horizon helps a little.

That we can agree on!
Chinese engineers also play the tech company referral game very well. My team went from having one Chinese engineer to being almost completely Chinese in less than a year. All through referrals that started with one.
I don't fear machine analysis draining the life of literature. Its limit would simply be a functioning similar to a human's. Rather than algorithmic analysis, we'd lump it with literary criticism. Here the computer's personal context rules on how 'vivid' or 'good' a text is.

This aside, I am as decidedly pro-analysis as your comment. My claim that OP's method may as well be subjective was a criticism of his process' insubstantial description.
Wage. Suppression.

Wage theft alone is the largest form of theft in America. Wage suppression is just as significant, and carried out through a huge variety of means, many of them legally questionable at best.
Well, part of the problem is that humans are pretty bad at accurately assessing frequency within groups. You seem pretty certain that there is a ‘cultural predisposition’ to cheating, but I have only heard anecdotal evidence.
Unclean drinking water supposedly kills 500,000 a year (eg https://www.news24.com/Green/News/two-billion-people-drinkin...).

We could probably fix that without need for any new technology and with only minimal changes to the eco-system. I wonder which costs more.

[Yes, I know it doesn't work like that and that these are not mutually exclusive.]
There's a big difference between producing something that's addictive by accident vs. engineering the addiction.

Even in the former situation, it's reasonable to ask researchers to detect and flag accidentally addictive mechanics.

Yeah, you definitely don't hear about ageism being a concern for doctors.

Family & internal med doctors can work pretty much anywhere, but specialists don't have a ton of choices when it comes to geography. Positions in desirable cities can actually be very competitive and hard to find.
Discourse looks different from the traditional style but to my surprise I got used to using it quite fast and liking it much and not just about the usability but with its API, customizability, administration capability and mobile support. It shows when someone has experience creating stackoverflow.
Wow. This is shocking.

I've only once rented a flat in Oxford. It was over 10 years ago, so I don't recall the details, but I do recall having to argue with the letting agent about changing some wording which was totally unreasonable.

Perhaps the situation is different in university towns, where lettings agents often dealing with naive tenants who have never signed a lease before.

>A Wall Street Journal analysis of data from more than a dozen large U.S. public universities found that in the 2014-15 school year, the schools recorded 5.1 reports of alleged cheating for every 100 international students. They recorded one such report per 100 domestic students.

>Students from China were singled out by many faculty members interviewed. “Cheating among Chinese students, especially those with poor language skills, is a huge problem,” said Beth Mitchneck, a University of Arizona professor of geography and development.

It seems like this could work for small components especially if one were using solder paste. Would something like this work better machined in aluminum (instead of acrylic) if the holes were bigger on the bottom instead of on the top to allow for the devices to not get stuck to the acrylic?
They are and always have been a bunch of anti-intellectual religious zealots. I'm not sure what anyone was expecting. There's still too many people drinking the kool-aid to say it now, but I'd be very surprised if by 2050, Tony Abbott isn't considered the worst PM in Australian history.

I think he is saying that he got labeled as arrogant because he was not respecting internal office drama and human specifics which were getting in the way of him trying to do his job well. Is that arrogant? It's very context-specific but I'd claim that most of the times it is not.

People calling other people offensive names in offices happens way too many times. Way too many managers and teams got too warm & fuzzy & comfy (and unproductive) and any newcomers who want to get shit done are labelled as "rocking the boat" although not literally but with a ton of euphemisms to conceal the core idea -- like those your parent commenter already mentioned ("troublemaker" etc.).

We're just going off of random internet strangers ideas about Chinese culture here. Personally, I would need much more information before I decided this was "the rule."
It is. I think you misunderstood. I was simply pointing out that defining "remember" to include that extremely broad definition basically makes the term meaningless because it includes all kinds of biological processes that we would never associate with memory under other circumstances. But when we want to talk about slime mold "cognition", science journalists start using loaded terms to pique interest in otherwise mundane behaviors.

If it doesn’t make sense then, at risk of being too frank, you aren’t actually thinking about higher order effects. In an otherwise intelligent person, which you clearly are, this indicates emotion is dominating reasoning. I get it, pedophrasty* is extremely effective rhetoric.

Domestic criminals who get arrested for a misdemeanor while having their children along don’t get to bring them to jail or get immediately released on their own recognizance. And yes there are plenty of arrestible misdemeanors.

So, these terms are horrible for low wage workers, but these are also bad for tech workers.

Does anyone know any any groups in NY agitating to ban these terms for all workers? I would be quite interested in participating in such a group. Bonus points if anyone knows groups interested in restricting the rights employers have to IP employees create outside of work hours/scope.

I see your POV, but I think the distinction is that RHEL

If I need to sit, I need a chair can support my weight. A box containing 2x4s, a hammer and box of nails doesn’t meet the need.

I’m not disparaging OSS — it just isn’t a good fit for use cases like this when you need to deal with bullshit like FIPS 140-2.
MongoDB 4.x also brings transactions to the table, which further reduces the vulnerability to inconsistent data. Data loss is far less of a problem than inconsistency due to partially completed operations and data damage.
That's quite a stretch in your comparison there, I don't think that stealing industrial trade secrets for profit is the same thing as whistle-blowing the fact that tinfoil hat sci-fi conspiracy theories were actually being carried out by the US government.

Your high school calculus teacher wouldn't have flunked you if you copied your neighbour's exam answers because you were violating their copyright. They'd have flunked you because you cheated. If someone in Ancient Egypt sent their cousin to sit the Obelisk Chiseling Guild exam for them and got caught, same thing. None of this has anything to do with 'intellectual property'.

Can you elaborate on this? Is it ephemeral data that requires some operation done with it, and then it can be discarded?
With the exception of Apple, you do not have a great point.
Where I work, we've had a problem with Chinese engineers sharing our internal interview question bank (with answers) to their friends, along with coaching for other interview types. They then refer their friends and get the referral bonus when they join.

It's now roughly 50% Chinese and this has caused some issues, although it's not something that can be discussed.
I am neither East Asian nor a westerner, but the subtle and not so subtle glorification of "western" values is amusing. How did the British gain control over China? By selling them opium. How did they dominate the textile industry? By chopping off the thumbs of weavers in Bengal. As for the United States, it's path to industrialization was paved by slavery and genocide. And let's not forget the massive amount of "IP" stolen in that process. It's the nature of capitalist expansion throughout history; it's just that the west is now being exposed to actors who are successfully copying their own innovations in this bloody race.

Smart move IF we weren’t doing the same to Europe and Canada at the same time. Europe is completely unreliable in terms of a united front against China, everyone has failed on that. They delay, delay, empty promises almost as bad as China so we don’t need them per say but we don’t want to get retaliation from them either.

And Canada is awesome.
Meanwhile... nasdaq prices were within 20 points of all time highs today. Tariff's aren't having decimating effect on the economy(yet?) that mainstream media would have us believe. Not saying they are good/bad/etc, I don't care, I'm only interested in their effects on markets.

Many sharks, plus bycatch, for no rational reason at all. Australian politicians vilify the animals and demand even more be killed. It's wholly irrational, as is your characterization of the sharks "menacing" the beach simply by living in their natural environment. Sharks aren't menacing the beach, the Australian government is menacing the sharks.

It is this sort of shitty attitude that will only become more prevalent when the eradication of animal species is further normalized.

> Instead, the cultural feeling is that copying someone else's work is a subtle way of honoring them and their work.

> learn to respect other people's property

Are these two not conflicting? If they feel inspired to use other's work as a way of honoring them, isn't that similar to them respecting their work?

I'm just confused because it sounds like most of the time it's a matter of perspective. If you think from the way you've been brought up that what they're doing is disrespecting other's property, but they see it as respecting - is there a right/wrong?
This terms like a strategic decision: Trump now has a bargaining chip with Europe/Canada that he can use to pressure them into ganging up on China. Without that pressure Europe/Canada would not be eager to take on China.

Every shelf at your local store filled with imports from that one-party state is pretty new in my book. And "strongman"? What are you basing that on? Saddam Hussein was a "strongman". Xi Jinping is unusually powerful for the president of the CCP, sure, but he still needs to be re-elected in 2022.
Outsourcing detective work has been going on for a long time. When the Marshals or bounty hunters are looking for fugitives, one of the first things they do is pull what is essentially your credit report (with strictly financial details redacted) to get your address history and last known whereabouts from the private sector collective.

All that extraneous data in your credit reports is up for sale to qualifying purchasers-- be it law enforcement, marketing firms, or financial institutions.
The story is the perceived loss of control over who can (and will) make guns. The thinking being that by publishing the info on the net a great many people who wouldn't have otherwise bothered to figure out how to do so will now make guns. And of course, since the net isn't limited by geography per se, now the issue becomes one of international concern.

For the record, while I expect that there will be an uptick in interested parties, I don't think it will of epic proportions because at the heart of it, people are lazy.

I do, however, wonder how the gun manufacturers feel about this.
Consider the scale of an automotive manufacturer - General Motors has a technical centre that can house over 21,000 employees [1] which goes to show the scale of people involved in vehicle R&D. For a company that's effectively just dipping it's toes into the industry, 5,000 is understandable

If it's an assignment many people will copy this has always happened and will always be true for probably every human being anywhere.

I have, actually. This week has made me decide to move away from it. I have been using it, and filed an issue[0] asking them to document the schemas emitted by their entity-tree code; I was then told that I was doing it wrong and that I should use their code-first/synchronization feature and trust in their magic rather than writing my own explicit migrations which are informed by my (tbh, pretty extensive) understanding of PostgreSQL.

The code seems fine. But I don't really trust anybody who is that insistent on owning the changes made to my database schema--I am certain it is well-intentioned but it makes me itch. Although I will say that there's an interesting project[1] that creates entities from a database that I need to examine further and see if it's worth using to get around TypeORM's unfortunate primary design goals.

This is the kind of thinking that enables this cancer of public-private corruption. The agility offered by the private sector would have been during the build out. Privatizing a monopoly after having used public authority to carve it out and after having suffered the bureaucratic red tape to build it is exactly backwards. Frankly, we'd be better off letting the high-speed road surface fall apart rather than giving up the public right of way!

The sensible public-private synergy would be to retain public control of the monopoly while applying market freedom to what gets funded, so politicians could no longer play chicken with services. Let individual taxpayers choose between funding roads repairs and traffic police, between national parks and the NSA.
"Good actors" isn't some term of high praise, it just means those who aren't "bad actors" (who do harmful things).
Unfortunately? Shareholders buy shares for two reasons:

1. The share price may go up

2. The dividends pay out

These have been the reasons for buying shares since shares of the Dutch East India company was chartered. If neither of these ever happened, there would be no shares purchased.

A buyback is just a bonus instead of a salary.

You could make the criticism that a company having nothing better to do with its money is bad, and I agree, but in the interim paying it out as a bonus is a great way to reward shareholders for holding. It's also better than a dividend in case next year the company does find something better to invest the money in, because investors really don't like when companies decrease dividends.

(posting from a throwaway for obvious reasons)

I currently sell to autonomous vehicle (AV) companies and spoke to a number of them. I believe that (most) chinese-money backed AV startup set up "R&D" offices in silicon valley purely for the tech/IP transfer back to China. Just to give you an example, an engineer at one of them boasted to me how his colleague, who used to work at a brand-name-AV-company-you've-heard-of, copied code & provided access to all of it internally.

Although innovation in China might seem like a wild west to many Westerners, there's plenty of it happening there. It's impressive, extremely fast paced (10xSV), and deadly cut-throat. They know they're behind the US in AV and are playing catch up, with VC certainly knowing of & backing such approach.

Circling back to this story - just check who's backing XiaoPeng Motors/xmotors.ai: $700M in funding from GGV, Alibaba, IDG, Foxconn & others. All their R&D is in China, with a very small office in Palo Alto. What do you think the office here is for? I don't believe this fellow Xiaolang Zhang acted without Xiaopeng's "encouragement".

All of this being said, there are plenty of smart and honest engineers working on both sides of the Pacific to push the humanity forward. One could think though, maybe the more know-how transfer, the better for the entire world?
Well, the US leadership has made it quite clear that US is only in for themselfes and not a reliable partner anymore, at least in the current presidency.

China already is a very important trading partner for the EU, so it makes sense to look east if relationships to the west deteriorate.

Apart from practical reasons, I actually think facing off China on their extremely anti-comptetitive and protectionist behaviour is long overdue and something the EU should do as well.
