Except when it doesn't. eg

* when the broadcaster screws up their RDS signal after a traffic report leaving you stranded on the wrong station.

* Or FM stations that run at different frequencies from different transmitters (this used to be a massive problem when driving long distances even just 20 years ago but now even the analogue car radios are digital devices that scan multiple frequencies to hop to the next frequency aired by a given station so you don't experience much cutout).

* Then there is the obvious issue of "dead zones" where the signals cannot reach (tunnels, some industrial locations, etc).

* Digital radio also suffers from frequent, albeit brief, cutouts while driving too but I've found that to have fewer dead zones than analogue.

* Bleeding used to be massive problem with analogue radio as well - this is another problem that was solved when radio started going digital.

So this is with 100 years of research and development into a protocol that requires an order of magnitude less bandwidth and yet most of the improvements have only been in the last 20 years when things like RDS (digital packets in analogue signals) and DAB have been introduced. Given that IP streaming video content isn't that far behind, just imagine how good it is going to be when that technology finally matures.
It would be cheaper and significantly easier to just buy coins though.
There you go. But if you go to Jansport, I bet you'll have to pay shipping and the cheap option will be 5-10 business days. That's the norm. We've forgotten, mostly thanks to Amazon.
I think you overestimate the duration of modern software job searches in urban areas. People sometimes take months to search when they are being picky, but it's not for lack of choices. Being in a very rural area and looking exclusively for the right sort of remote job though, then yes, you would be lacking choices and it would take at least several months and probably much longer, while at the same time forcing you to compromise more for lack of options.
also prime streaming music
Korea, too. Probably some other countries. I remember the PSP had an optional OTA antenna.

There have been several attempts at doing the same thing in the U.S., but none of them ever worked out for various reasons. Often it was because of the expense of upgrading the tens of thousands of TV transmitters across the country.

This one died in 2011: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaFLO

In a small country with more centralized control of broadcasting and less territory to cover like Japan and Korea, it's much easier.
from the indictment [1], statement 62:

The Conspirators funded the purchase of computer infrastructure for their hacking activity in part by “mining” bitcoin. Individuals and entities can mine bitcoin by allowing their computing power to be used to verify and record payments on the bitcoin public ledger, a service for which they are rewarded with freshly-minted bitcoin. The pool of bitcoin generated from the GRU’s mining activity was used, for example, to pay a Romanian company to register the domain dcleaks.com through a payment processing company located in the United States.

63. In addition to mining bitcoin, the Conspirators acquired bitcoin through a variety of means designed to obscure the origin of the funds. This included purchasing bitcoin through peer-to-peer exchanges, moving funds through other digital currencies, and using pre-paid cards. They also enlisted the assistance of one or more third-party exchangers who facilitated layered transactions through digital currency exchange platforms providing heightened anonymity.

Having read extensively about American history since WW2, from political attitudes, obsessions with military industrial complex, gate keeping based on wealth (using race and anti-communism as fear tactics), this does align with the reality of day to day life of Americans after WW2

Your contention is that the public policy decisions to start adopting license plates around the turn of the 20th century also encompassed the decision to track and permanently store all licensed vehicle movements?
And on top of that, what happens when the bricks and mortar store goes out of business and you have nowhere to go when Amazon is not sending it to you and "need it urgently".

Sometimes I shop at the local BestBuy to delay that inevitable day when Amazon is the only thing available.

There's a lot of counterfeit stuff on Amazon. I ordered a Pulltaps corkscrew and the chrome-plated metal part [1] was instead made of crudely bent sheet metal that didn't look remotely authentic. After that I mainly use Amazon for small household consumables. I also heard stories about counterfeit Mitutoyo calipers [2] so I didn't even consider trying Amazon for those.

I agree... Its a laptop. 5 year refresh cycle is plenty time for the device. Your looking at a few hundred dollars to get small gains to keep a device running an extra year or two. When by that time the market will have things 90% better ha.
I've been using https://privacy.com/ to prevent this exact kind of thing.
Amazon keeps constantly increasing fees in their marketplaces or warehouses, then there is a brutal competition on price via algorithmic repricers, so resellers try to compensate wherever they could. Increased price could be also a consequence of Amazon kicking out cheaper sellers and the remaining ones without doing anything by using a repricer would set a higher price, not mentioning some advanced repricers using game theory to find equilibrium as well.
This weeks episode of Reply All [P] talks about how Amazon counterfeits, how it's easy to do, no recourse and be bundled along with the authentic products for sale. It was very interesting.

I would say the DoD is very effective. When was the last time the US was attacked by another country on our home soil? 1941? What about Europe? When was the last time a European country was attacked? March 2014.

Now “effectively is not the same as “efficient.” DoD and pretty much every single other large government agency could be considered very inefficient. But ineffective? Not at all.
It's really bad with things like SD cards. I've gotten ones that are half their stated capacity, and ones that are supposed to be V90 class (90MB/sec write) that barely make 10MB/sec.

It was a 100 lb wild sow, covered in ticks and just nasty looking. I was excited until I tried all the cuts and realized how different wild is from domesticated.
That is technically true, but isn't relevant.

Just because a person can take my picture in public doesn't necessarily mean they should be able to use face recognition to find out my name and lookup other information about me.
Once again, this experience really doesn't generalize. I worked in one fully remote job and the company did not care whether employees had prior experience working remotely and did not generally believe that people who worked remotely before would be any better at it than people who had not. There's not really a "skill set" for working remotely, mostly because so many companies require remote coordination between different office locations that even if you work in an office these days, it absolutely requires all the same remote-specific skills that a fully remote worker would have to utilize.

I've also generally experienced developers being hostile to candidates we wanted to hire when they had active projects on GitHub or they had high-reputation Stack Overflow accounts. It's very idiosyncratic whether developers try to cut people down and emphasize only dimensions of achievement that they personally excelled in, or if they take a humbler approach and have a more open mind about a variety of ways that a developer can demonstrate skills. But by no means is it common for people to look positively on GitHub activity. Most often, interviewers just ignore it and believe it's not relevant to their job and prefer you to complete silly programming trivia. But occasionally they go further and even actively hold it against you in petty ways.

Overall, I'd say it's no easier to get remote jobs by already having a remote job.
Some banks also have virtual CCs included.
I've wondered the same about myself. What I've come to about it is that there are definitely different types of programmers, and I have found what type I am and what makes me unique. Also I've come to that I may not always program just to program. I have higher goals that could use programming as a means, and for my specific goals I don't need to be the best. A good example is Pieter Levels [1]. He is not the best programmer, but he makes a lot of amazing (and revenue generating) things.

Major League Baseball Is Creating Digital Collectibles
Meanwhile in my country in Europe I have never heard about anyone buying anything from Amazon. Not the IT people, not the common folk, not teenagers, literally no one. Maybe someone bought a Kindle some time back, but I remember that people were literally reading tutorials how to buy it from amazon. The same people who had been buying things online for years.

Amazon doesn't even have a polish website, as amazon.pl redirects to amazon.de They have multipe logistic centres in my country, employing thousands of people though! I guess it's for Germany so I can buy at amazon.de with international shipping, lol.

We have Uber, McDonald's, iphones, credit cards, the internet, electricity! Come on! Almost everyone buys online here, either native polish e-commerce or directly from China.

Also I think we can't buy any of Google hardware directly. I have given up on them though.

So much for globalization.
Thanks. I'm asking because apparently the other Russian group previously charged by Mueller et al has hired lawyers who seem to be easily winning the case in court, without any Russian national having to appear. Apparently for lack of evidence and lack of legal substance.
Not quite; there's also the chance you might switch providers before discovering a condition.
Did you mean shouldn't* ?
> What should I do? Is quitting this job a good idea?

yes, absolutely. I've been there. I've burnt out twice and i'm working on my third. (not proud of that statement at all). In my experience it's not a question of if it will get better. It's only a question of how many coping techniques you can put in place to extend the time before you loose it completely (and probably dramatically). Also note that the stress associated with burnout is hard on the body. Want a heart attack at a young age? keep courting burnout....

If i were you i'd also do some serious internal searching regarding if this _carrer_ might also be worth quitting. I dunno, maybe you love programming, in which case the question is more how to find a way to make a living at it that doesn't keep burning you out.

I quit and did something i loved that was completely unrelated to programming for four months. it was amazing. it was life changing. Now i'm back in a co. and my values aren't well aligned and it's burning me out again. I will quit. I will do the thing i love, and i'll probably never work for The Man again. I still love programming. I'll keep doing it. Just, not for the man, and on my own schedule. I'll probably end up making a fraction of my current income, and it'll be worth every penny.

You sound like you're into the pretty severe end of burnout. My opinion is that no amount of money is worth that. Do whatever it takes to take care of yourself and live your daily life in a way that makes you smile, regardless of if it involves a pay cut.

also, major kudos for getting the help of a therapist. and good luck.
WeWork Will No Longer Let Employees Expense Any Kind of Meat
OTA doesn't have less problems to solve. You have all the same problems of digital encoders etc (since all the media is digital anyway) PLUS the problems of transmission towers, solar events (I kid you not), wildlife, etc. You have the safety and cost problems supporting those hazardous and highly expensive equipment in remote locations.

IP streaming does actually solve a lot of problems. Plus these days OTA transmissions are all digital anyway. So serving that digital content via the internet is a natural progression. Sure things are superficially more complex at the moment but the technology hasn't matured yet.
I use both raw SQL and the entity framework on a regular basis. That Linq to entities query gets translated pretty directly to SQL. Each of those includes translates directly to a left join on whatever column is specified as the key. You would need a group by, but no self joins. Assuming that you are familiar with the database schema and are proficient in SQL, it shouldn't be any slower to write the SQL version than the C# version.

It depends a little on the exact columns you need, but it would look something like this, which is a supper common form for a SQL query:

select
m.id Manager,
count(sh.id) as ShiftsCompleted,
sum(iif(sh.coworker = m.id,1,0) as ShiftsWithManager
from staff s
left join manager m
on m.id = s.manager_id
left join shifts sh
on sh.id = s.shifts_id
group by s.id, m.id

The SQL version has the advantage that it's more intuitive to specify the columns that you need so if your query is running slow because you're pulling too much data (something that's happened to me a bunch,) you can omit unneeded columns pretty easily.

> I have worked multiple jobs in the health sector, and it seemed as if the vast majority of the overhead and time spent was for the sake of complying with HIPAA.

It is pretty easy to comply with HIPAA, and other countries also have privacy laws governing medical records. I suspect you've worked for incompetent organizations - some organizations intentionally drag out compliance and make things more difficult in order to complain or justify increased costs. This is the lamest excuse I've heard in a long time. All user/customer data should always be protected and compartmentalized to the greatest extent possible in any industry.
Don't get me wrong, I was almost instantaneously full from just eating a good-sized blob the size of my palm. Its a weird feeling, like you know you're missing all the other nutrients but you feel healthily full even though it was just a blob of fat and oil. Definitely also sick because of the normally fat-filled diet I probably had.

Those stats hide the fact you’re still looking at 10s of thousands and more living in poverty

Quantophrenia in action right here

Instead of thinking “but the stats aren’t so bad.”

Maybe consider “would I want to live a life of poverty?”

Plainly, no, I don’t

So pointing at a stat saying “oh but look...” changes the conversation from “a person is in the shit” to “I mean you know it’s not 100% of 300 million so no big”

Or at least that’s where Americans let it lie

Make an MVP that has some of the capabilities you mention, and build a small loyal audience that pays, either with eyeballs/time spent on the app or actual dollars. If you have a smidgen of that, and a team of 1 or more capable people, you can then approach people for funding which would be needed to scale your product out to more users and more capabilities (iterating). How you do it is simple, you show your product, user base, yourself, and your vision to anyone who will listen. And then take the amount needed to make it happen (could be less than the 10M figure you mentioned, actually wondering where you go that number from).
Good luck!

>>The first time someone knocks out one of our GPS satellites, you'll be asking, "why don't we have a Space Force to protect against this sort of thing?"

It seems lately I see an article like this about once a week - "an algorithm did it" and 1 person's livelihood in shambles, with said person needing to prove they're real/not a criminal/not violating policies/not fired/ etc.

Just off the top of my head -
[1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17350645

We need to think critically about how to propel legislative action requiring every company/organization using machine learning to have a human-in-the-loop that can override the mistake. It doesn't matter how good an algorithm is - thanks to the nature of probability and a large enough sample size, it will always make a mistake. The onus to correct that mistake should not fall to the victim.

Currently, if, say, one's Google's account is suspended because of a mistake, there seems to be no recourse for a victim except to stir up a large enough PR scandal. In essence - a "guilty until proven innocent" approach. Our courts don't work that way and neither should the closure of our accounts (which are, increasingly, our livelihoods).
Instagram was barely two years old when FB acquired them for $1B along with a promise to allow Ig to continue to operate independently. It'd be very hard for most founders/investors to pass up such a deal, particularly with an app that was even more of a one-trick-pony at the time.

Both wider and taller! The most common Russian T loading gauge is 3.75 meters wide, 5.3 meters high.

Compare to Germany's traditional G2 gauge: only 3.15 meters wide by 4.65 meters high, and that height is with a sloping roof profile. (And the German gauge is quite generous compared to some other Western European countries; for much of the British network, the loading gauge is much smaller.)
If you have a bacterial infection, a relatively incompetent doctor giving you an antibiotic is going to do you a lot more good than the world's best homeopathist. The question then is whether therapy is more like medicine or more like homeopathy. This study suggests it might actually be worse than homeopathy which at least doesn't appear to cause worse outcomes than doing nothing.
That's solid advice if you're aiming for performance. If you're aiming for performance per buck at the expense of today's performance then it's far better to spend the bare minimum on a fewer but large-ish DIMMs and max out on RAM when your wallet recovers from the initial hit.

Sometimes you don't notice the impact on performance, but you do notice doubling or quadrupling your RAM with a fraction of your initial budget.
I dont have to. In any situation where the fans have come on. I already am, cus I'm playing a game.
I’m not sure I’d use the term ripoff either, but prime is essentially there to tie people into using amazon. Once you’ve committed the $x/yr for prime it is there to compel you to spend more to make sure you get your money’s worth. Amazon could just as easily lower the prices of what they sell, or the cost of shipping, and not force people to buy in to a “club” membership. In my case I buy one or two things from Amazon a year, and have no interest in their streaming content, so whatever they’re charging these days for prime isn’t worth it.
I don't just mean wasteful in terms of materials, but also in terms of man-hours, equipment needing to be owned and maintained. Once all factors for the total cost of ownership are taken in to account I highly doesn't it's efficient. It's like everyone growing their own vegetables.
"Yak shaving" is for things that seem ridiculous at first glance but turn out to be necessary or optimal due to unexpected constraints and requirement -- washing your car requires you to shave a yak to get the wool to build a sponge.

"Tying your shoes" is for mundane but necessary tasks. "Sharpening your saw" is for tangential work that indirectly makes your output better.

They seem to have given up as well... a few years ago the Finnish Google Store sold various Nexus tablets and phones, nowadays it is just Wifi and Chromecast.
