I love reading these rants. I wish more young people fresh out of college were confident and critical like this, I see too many people simply accept whatever the organization tells them without doing the research.

You really have to stand up for yourself and be willing to fight in every interaction with corporations, because they will exploit you in every way possible if you let them. And there is very little recourse for wronged employees in today's rigged arbitration arena.

IMO you're judging yourself harshly. For most people who use drugs and/or alcohol a hangover is the worst consequence. If you're around other people using them and they're having fun I expect it's very hard to stay conscious of the fact that the risks are elevated for you, given your family history

Not necessarily. Not all games are 0 sum games so it is possible to give one an unfair advantage without subtracting from another.

For example giving someone a free movie ticket doesn't mean that everybody else is penalized. They get to pay exactly what they were told and expected, and nothing changes their situation. But one person is subsidized, gets an advantage without it subtracting from the others. They all get to see the movie but one does so for free.

In a university admission exam giving one person an unfair advantage might mean that they get admitted instead of someone else. So someone has to lose for this person to win.
Yeah, his wording is quite strong, but isn't it even more insulting to have your very existence declared problematic?

Let's be honest here, some environmentalists really do see too many humans as a problem. I mean, it's phrased in terms of too many people doing too many things and owning to much stuff, which all implies there's to many of us. The next logical question is "ok, so which one of us will have to go"?

Your points are mostly valid, but they were all solvable, had people wanted to solve them. The reality is that today there are jurisdictions (Ontario, France) that produce clean, safe, affordable, carbon-free energy because they built and maintained their nuclear plants. But the anti-nuclear crowd did not want to solve issues, they had one aim, which they achieved, and now we have a far bigger issue.

The uncomfortable fact remains is that if the rest of the developed world looked like Ontario, climate change would be a far smaller problem. And what bothers me personally isn't that the anti-nuclear left fucked up so badly in the 70s - after all climate change was barely on anyone's register back then. What bothers me is that even today after we see these facts staring at us plainly in the face, they still won't admit they fucked up.

This bothers me because even today they won't let you call yourself an "environmentalist" unless you sign up to their very specific implementation of environmentalism.
You are mixing the Gaza strip with Ramallah, which is where this ice cream shop is.

Ramallah is actually a pretty developed and secular city in the west bank.

My mom worked at a bank that installed what they called a "man trap". Essentially there's a large magnetometer between two sets of heavy doors that locks the doors if it detects someone with a firearm (or any large block of magnetic material) has tried to enter the bank.

On any given week, they'd catch about a half dozen police officers, a maintenance person or two who still had their tools on them, and the occasional delivery person.

After a few weeks they disabled the system entirely.
Ramallah in particular is a very westernized, modernized city. To illustrate, the city has KFC branches (which no city in Israel has), and coffee downtown can run you $6 (compared to $1 in cities like Nablus).
The recommendation I remember is once every 2 or 3 days, since sperm production has its own refractory period. Every day is slightly less effective than waiting a little bit.

When I was teenager, during some play I got my nose hit. At the beginning I didn't notice anything special - my nose had been usually blocked due to allergy so I was mouth breathing anyway. After couple of years I got signals that I'm terribly snoring and it occurred that my nasal septum is broken and my soft palate is too loose which are the reason of snoring. I had my surgery done but it failed - my nose was still completely blocked (I wasn't able to take 1 full breath) and I was still snoring. So that was many (15?) years ago.

Until 3 years ago it was getting worse. I was easily getting cold and other infections, snoring (which caused not sleeping well), cough. Until one day when I got constant cough that each repetition was literally making my head to explode. It was Saturday so I get to emergency when I got some strong drugs (something based on morphine) to stop that horrible cough. Then I decided that I had to do everything what was possible to do.

So I went to otolaryngologist who detected 3 problems: 1) completely destroyed tonsils causing ease of catching infections (and some "cosmetic" discomforts); 2) broken nasal septum which were blocking nose; 3) loose soft palate causing snoring. Tonsils were in bad shape so they were only to be removed. So the doctor fixed all the 3 points.

So what changed since then:
- no snoring at all - even if want to simulate it my throat does not allow me to. Its shape really changed. Before it was like top left, now it's top right at the picture:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_apnea#/media/File:UPPP._...
- no infections at all (literally nothing!)
- I am able to breath by nose as long as I want to, even during moderate effort (eg. during going by bicycle)
- I started to have dreams. It seems that due to snoring and vibrations made by that I wasn't getting REM phase
- no more every morning headaches
- more energy

But: I keep forgetting to breath by nose. That's something I've been working on and it's getting better. My wife claims that I'm still snoring but on the video she took I can hear that it's sound like normal person make when has running nose. And I still have my allergy which every so often makes me sneeze and blocks my nose. So I get up morning with dry, open mouth and blocked nose (by allergy).

Until yesterday - when I was lying on my back in bed (barely sleeping) I felt that my mouth was closed all the time and the liquid made by allergy was going to throat.

So besides all the things I've read about sleeping on back - spine, muscles etc. I hope it would help me with my nose breathing too.
When I first saw this problem in elementary school, I went to look at an atlas to see if I could see the bridges (but couldn't because the scale in an atlas was too large). I'm just blown away that today, not only can I find the map but I can look at the aerial view and go on virtual walks through the city and the bridges -- mere seconds after reading about it:

I'm wondering what the amazing mapping advance will be 20 years from now. Real time street views of all metropolitan areas?
And both of them were probably more interactive and educational than a standard online masters.

I'm not saying that online=bad. But a good classic masters program will invariably be better than a good online masters program. Of course if something's already not up to par (classic or online) it becomes irrelevant by how much it fails.

Aretha Franklin has died
Everyone else says money. The real reason is darker.

When the first broadcast media came out, radio and later TV, there was very limited bandwidth. The FCC had to apportion out a finite spectrum, and the powers there decided to make sure the public got their money's worth (because spectrum is a public good). Remember when government did that?

That ensured that building a transmitter and beaming out programming was expensive not only from a physical hardware perspective, but also from a licensing and compliance perspective. If the FCC thought your approved use of public airwaves was a little too raunchy or biased, you'd lose that approval.

Now with ubiquitous internet, bandwidth is essentially free. Net neutrality aside, there's no public interest in governmental involvement in bandwidth from a scarcity perspective, and we've yet to reach an agreed-upon point where there is any other reason for governmental involvement.

Imagine the heady days of TV with the lineup of talking heads, push polling, personal branding, backroom deals, astroturfing, sockpuppetry, and exogovernmental involvement we have today.

To answer the question, Google won't fix it because no government forces them to.

How so? If I as the MITM (non-decrypting) proxy intercept the request, look at the SNI to ensure it’s on my whitelist, and then do my own DNS lookup and open my own TCP connection to that IP and relay the traffic between the two, what’s the attack vector?
Are female less represented than, say, gay people? Are they less represented than, say, trans-black-woman or a non-binary-gender person.

Shouldn't we rise above and instead of helping minorities, just help/accept "everyone" already. A side benefit is to remind them that there is no such thing as "minority" and they are regular persons. And that no particular person no matter what his gender/color/religion is still a person and welcome.

And is it actually legal to give woman an unfair advantage? Or advertise capitalizing on it (I'm aware the offer is open to anyone).

How many of these overdoses were because of suicide?
So part of the reason is that since the end of WWII we have not technically been "at war" because that requires Congressional approval and politics gets involved.

It has nothing to do with money. Setting up a DNS like that would not even require raising of taxes by 0.1%.

The reason is that the law is only a political battle. Once the battle and the marketing are over non of this law or how it is or is not implemented. At best you get a bunch of bureaucrats in place that monitor these things and write a report every so often. Those will be ignored until some politician is again interested in fighting this battle.

My first reading of that headline was that "bombs" means unexploded ordnance (which is a regular problem for construction projects in my home town thanks to WW2 air raids). I'm not sure if this means I'm sheltered or level-headed.

My first (real world) exposure to exceptions was Python. I was a bit above novice. I would write some code, run it, and it would die of some horrible exception. I would catch that exception, try again, and die again. Lather, rinse, repeat. Eventually I would wrap everything in try-except blocks. Talk about verbose; tab indents everywhere. You can often end up handling exceptions somewhere not immediately close to the call that failed.

I liked when I started with Go (mostly due to concurrency primatives, but errors were nice too). In my day job, many of the errors have a need for custom handling and I get that for "free" in Go and I am never surprised by a program crash because I failed to read the docs on a function and what exceptions it may throw (or undocumented exceptions it may throw due to one of its dependencies). I can see right in the signature that I have an error to potentially handle.
Funny enough, the OP's later Reddit posts were things like "Two months into my first job, I'm still fucking up on basic tasks" and a complaint that their co-workers are too good at their jobs, and making the OP look bad by comparison.
This kind of process just reinforces why doing paid internships and freelance work during college is so important. I think after you go through that process your tolerance for crappy hiring practices approaches zero.

Something you learn quickly in freelancing is no money == no work. It doesn't matter if it is to measure technical ability. Any amount of time you spend not doing something else carries a cost, if companies aren't willing to pay for it early on, why would they respect your time later?

No, it shows that unfortunately you don't know what you're talking about. Federal employee salaries are set by legislation and may not be changed. They can't get bonuses or anything else. Contracts are bid and are paid out of completely different budgets.
"Reduce friction to start" is a huge one for me. Especially if "starting" is a bunch of busywork like writing a Dockerfile, initializing a git repo, creating package metadata files, etc. I've found it helpful to just dive in and start writing the "fun" part first and turn it into a "real" project later. Usually after an hour of coding or less I feel I've created something of value that I want to save and reuse so there's no motivational problem.
What direct cryptographic attack do you know that works on a one time pad? (Aslong as the randomness used to build it is real, it is implemented properly and not re-used etc)

It’s stretchy due to the addition of mastic gum. I had to look that up.

Mastic is a resin obtained from the mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus). In pharmacies and nature shops, it is called "Arabic gum" (not to be confused with gum arabic) and "Yemen gum". In Greece, it is known as the "tears of Chios," being traditionally produced on that Greek island, and, like other natural resins, is produced in "tears" or droplets.

Originally a sap, mastic is sun-dried into pieces of brittle, translucent resin. When chewed, the resin softens and becomes a bright white and opaque gum. The flavor is bitter at first, but after some chewing, it releases a refreshing, slightly pine or cedar-like flavor.

Except that hardware fails, but software should stay reliably running in the face of that system.

It seems like they can detect liquid and metal, which is very different from detecting bombs and guns. That's like building a face detection library and saying you can find terrorists. If mostly you just identify people with water bottles or laptops, what problem would this really solve?
To be fair, thats part of 'experience'.

7 years after college, I'm not a noob engineer, I'm a leader on my team.

The way I talk to recruiters has changed as well, and they know what my paygrade is as a result.

A grad doesnt have that industry experience and HR penalizes them greatly for it.

The biggest threat is being a new grad and never changing companies. I know a kid 2 years younger than me making 50k less per year than me.

Keep in mind that some people are at much higher risk for becoming addicted to opiates. You may have been able to take them recreationally without major issue, but the same behavior could have a much more severe consequence for someone in that at-risk group.
Many diseases are the results of choices, often the culmination of thousands of little, to use your words, "moral failings". Cancer, heart disease, diabetes and even suicide attempts fall under that umbrella.

State governments in regions where lynching were commonplace were unable or unwilling to address it at the state level.

From 1882-1968, over 200 bills were introduced in Congress to make lynching a Federal crime. 7 US presidents called upon congress to address the issue in legislation as late as 1952. None made it through the Senate, I don't recall exactly, but I think that only one made it out of committee. The "solid south" Senators kept these measures bottled up.

Only the extraordinary abilities of LBJ was able to break the ossification in the Senate the blocked civil rights.

If we adjusted for the period in which they were suicidal, and calculated how many days per suicide attempt existed, would women still have a higher number? That would seem a better measure given that the simple stats of total attempts in general means that a man who commits suicide counts for less than a woman who attempts many times but never commits.
And about losing weight after surgery. I guess once you fix your breathing, then you sleep better, so you have more energy to burn calories and that helps you lose weight.
