If it is a contract to hire position let the recruiter pick the number for you, because their commission is a percentage of that number and they know the client's (hiring company) target range and exceptional range. You will want to max out that contractor rate, because that rate is a factor in your conversation negotiation.
The benefits you mention seem valid, but I would also point out the problem of complacency. If people falsely believe that buying “rainforest certified” products means they aren’t impacting the rain forests, they’ll feel satisfied with their efforts. If they knew however that the label was a lie, they’d maintain their guilt for hurting the earth and feel motivated to do more. False certifications pacify the people from making more real change.

I played a lot of Ultimate in High School in the late 90s, and went on to play for the top University team in Australia in the early 2000s while pursuing my undergrad in Comp Sci.

One thing I've noticed about ultimate that makes a significant difference to other sports, is the degree of control you have over the flight of the disc. Releasing the disc parallel to the ground it should fly straight in the direction you release it. But angling it will cause the disc to curve as it flies, quite significantly depending on the angle.

This allows the thrower to curve the disc around defenders or even out of bounds to reach a spot on the field where only your player can get to.

While you can curve a pass or a shot to some extent in ball spots like football, the degree of control is much smaller. This gives frisbee a "3 dimensional" aspect I find really compelling and really adds to the depth of strategy available to players.
Maybe so, but I still contend that it's very possible to speak a foreign language while rarely making mistakes. Nobody in my extended environment spoke English when I was growing up, yet I think I'm doing okay. I don't think I'm getting tripped up on idioms all that often, but I may just not be seeing my mistakes.

This is good advice about naming the first number if and only if you don't have good market data. If you have good market data, and you should with sites like levels.fyi, you should use that data to your advantage. Why? Well, first off it signals value. If you name a number that is a bit of a stretch for the prospective company, but still within a realm of reason, they start to wonder if they have undervalued you. Second, it demonstrates that you have done your homework. Third, it shows that you have negotiation skills and willingness to use them.

This technique is referred to as anchoring. https://www.pon.harvard.edu/daily/negotiation-skills-daily/w...

Use anchoring to take control of the negotiation and to maximize your compensation.

>> Giant nuclear weapons are heavy, dirty, inefficient, and pointless

Pointless yes, but as bombs scale in size they actually become more efficient, burning more of their fuel. The primary reason behind this is that the cores of larger bombs maintain critical mass for a longer period of time before blowing apart, resulting in more fission/fusion per weight of fuel. So they are less radioactive, less dirty, than an equivalent number of smaller bombs.
Also red lights and stop signs become optional.
And it’ll be billed out at some ridiculous fee because there are 9 layers of ticket clickers, each of which filter any request made such that the actually contractor gets told a story very different from what was intended. Academia is a strange land.

More recent example is Hit me baby, one more time by Britney Spears:

>Turns out, it's not any form of physical abuse or kinky S&M or even a metaphor relating to those -- it's all one big misunderstanding.

>Swedish writers Max Martin and Rami Yacoub believed that "hit" was American slang for "call."

https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop-shop/6753845/...

And the fact that it's another mistake made by Swedish writers shouldn't make you think they are bad at English, but rather make you wonder how many successful writers/producers of pop music come from Sweden.
"The chorus of the song goes... "All that she wants is another baby.." The intended meaning was “All that she wants is another lover... But of course, no native speaker of English understood it that way. We all thought the song was taking this really surprising angle: “All that she wants is to get pregnant."

Is this true? I never had such confusion about this song, and the Wikipedia page for it doesn't mention it.

It seems more likely that a non-native English speaker would have misinterpreted the lyric -- lyrics often don't intend the literal meaning of the words and the use of "baby" as "lover" is pretty widely known.
Pfft, GTFO. Kymko or go home
Haha yeah even 20 minutes is too much.
My comment was in response to a specific comment criticizing the exclusion of certain zip codes. To my knowledge, zip codes are not legally protected discrimination criteria. I suppose one could argue that they can be a proxy for excluding people based on criteria that is legally protected, however, that argument is unlikely to be successful if the primary motivation for using zip codes was to target those of certain income levels, which is also not legally protected.

In the future, before saying such snarky things (which are of little value to the discussion), perhaps you should read the comment you are responding to. The first sentence of my comment limited its scope to the location issue:

An honest actor doesn't ask irrelevant questions that just so happen to put you in a weaker negotiating position.

When you do this to a naive kid, you might win out. When you do this to a seasoned professional, you burn any chance of him assuming good faith (which is almost never the case to begin with, given that negotiations are inherently adversarial), and he's going to enjoy playing hardball with you.

Listen, I know how this works. And I tell your employees and potential employees because I like when knowledge, dedication, and skill enrich people, and I hate when lesser-minded snake-charming enriches people.
The difficulty is that helo operations are pushed around by the bigger/faster stuff.

One completely unrelated thing. On Chrome 68.0.3440.84, I noticed the large icons (particularly the Kubernetes one) looked "weird", with jagged edges that didn't make any sense. Some poking with the devtools revealed that 'backface-visibility: hidden' seems to be disabling antialiasing.

I noticed disabling this has an effect on the animation at the top (the edges of the moving webpage slides don't have constantly-moving jaggies).

There may well be a valid reason you have this enabled, perhaps for added performance. Or perhaps React added it in for you? :P
Vitamin D is mainly problematic when low or insufficient, as is the case with many other nutrients. 40-60 ng/mL 25(OH)D is a commonly preferred range. It can have positive effects at higher serum levels (>70 ng/mL, with >90 ng/mL being even better) when trying to heal.
I agree with this 100%.

I do wonder if insurance paying for everything under the sun is part of the issue. I remember hearing talk of medicine for some chronic conditions being available over the counter (migraines, diabetes, asthma, etc.).

Your story is a bit similar to mine. I'm also named Aram, was born in Armenia, and moved to Australia at a young age.

But of course, no native speaker of English understood it that way. We all thought the song was taking this really surprising angle: “All that she wants is to get pregnant.

I know this is a little off-topic from the point of the article, but I think this is a very sophisticated take on the song! In my less sophisticated world, people in my community who got pregnant were never "gone tomorrow." There was no unexpected "goodbye." If the result was not marriage, there was always child support, interference with subsequent relationships, various threats of violence both ways, and/or a perpetual public argument about the sufficiency of the father's involvement. Based on what I saw around me, the "she's trying to get pregnant and then disappear" interpretation of the song just didn't make any sense, so I had a good immature teenage snicker over it but never doubted that "baby" meant "lover," never thought it was intended as a double-entendre, and never thought that the accidental double-entendre gave the song any extra depth. This is the first I've heard that people actually took it to be the intended meaning of the song! (Though with broader experience now I can see it's a viable interpretation.)
> "A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form."

By wikipedia's definition, the application Excel is the spreadsheet. I wouldn't call Excel.exe an organised collection of data.

On the other hand, the relevant articles also state " A spreadsheet may also refer to one such electronic document" and "the term "database" is often used casually to refer to both a database and the DBMS used to manipulate it."

I think we both know the parent's point -- Spreadsheet applications aren't general purpose database management systems; and most databases can't be cleanly implemented as spreadsheet documents.
Health insurance in the US isn’t insurance. It’s a scheme to try and spread around the costs of providing healthcare to everyone, and everyone tries to pass the buck to those with the least power in the system. Large employers with young, healthy office workers win, and poorer taxpayers who don’t have health insurance or independent contractors who have very little power lose. The people who have nothing get medical care, but it’s not ideal, but they don’t have anything to pay with either.

So try not to be in the middle - the ones with enough assets to take, but not enough to defend against having them taken (e.g. not being part of a group that can negotiate out of it).

God forbid we actually come out and say we, as a country, want to support each other. A large portion of our fellow citizens would rather play this game of hot potato, but don’t have the balls to turn poor people away from the emergency room and tell them to die.

I'm quite sure you can speak several languages on a native level, and you don't have to learn all of them when you're a kid.

My counterexample is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad

BTW I don't consider myself a fluent English speaker (mostly because of my awful pronunciation), but all of the problems with ABBA songs specified in the article were clear to me. I was just never bothered by it, because songs by native English speakers have weird or even ungrammatical lyrics, too.
>Meanwhile MalCorp found a way to tweak the law so its patents would never expire. It proposed a special amendment, just for patent pools, that said: Any time any part of any patent changes, the entire pool is treated as a new invention under U.S. law.

This is a little silly. Patent law isn’t like copyright law. The term has never changed appreciably.
Not just hostile UX changes, but also less attention to getting things right.

For example, we sometimes watch a show/movie with subtitles. But netflix frequently gets confused about whether subtitles should be on or off and with which language they should be in, even with simply stopping viewing and coming back later. We sometimes use English subtitles, but then they get turned on automatically in various languages for other shows/movies.

Agreed -- my wife moved here from an Asian country in her late 20's (with only classroom English education), and she understands most common (and many not so common) English idioms.

One thing she doesn't get is a lot of american humor -- standup comedy is almost entirely lost on her. But that's not because she doesn't understand the words, but it's the cultural situations that she doesn't get.

Oh, and she still doesn't get the American units of measurement -- I've learned to convert from English units to Metric when talking to her because we keep having conversations like: "3/16's of an inch!? That's nonsense, why can't they just say it in mm?"

Netflix was more or less forced to start developing their own content because their suppliers (the studios) started realizing how much money Netflix was making, and they started developing their own streaming services.

That's why their in-house content grows percentage wise each year. Each year the library of content they can license gets smaller.

I've gotten them elsewhere in the US, but can't speak to Europe. Usually they have strings attached; basically "work for us for a year or pay us this back". It's a good way to make the offer more attractive without it affecting the following year's budget, while also achieving a bit of risk management. Relocation usually stipulates the same thing; I know with a recent move and job change of my own, between signing bonus and relo costs, I probably would be looking at $50k if I walked away within a year, so yeah, they own me for that time. However I knew what I was getting into and so far am very happy there, so mutually beneficial.

>> You can see in cities, public places, transport, offices, people's homes, clothing, packaging.

Yes. Art and beauty happen where private money is funding the construction. There are some great corporate buildings, private houses and churches. But public structures, things funded by governments spending tax dollars, lack heart. Compare US manhole covers to those in Japan, or even Germany. The cost difference is negligible, but US cities just lack the whimsy. Or compare US coinage to Canadian. American money is covered in symbols, crests and dead guys. Canada went with polar bears, beavers and loons.

> I had this experience with imaging (MRI), cost 10% more with insurance than without.

Depending on where you went it could have been much more than 10%. Non-emergency imaging is definitely one of those things you ask about other locations and if they have cash pricing. When I needed an MRI if I was to use my insurance it was going to be ~$1000 because of high deductible plan. A different place took payment at the time and it was $350. According to the doctor who wanted me to get the MRI, hospitals are far and away the most expensive places to get one.
Price fixing is a crime only when coordinated among multiple suppliers.
They don’t just put pills in a bottle. They’ve been tasked, by the government, with making sure the correct drugs are dispenses to avoid abuse and other damage.

Obviously if certain behaviors correlate strongly with people who abuse, then it’s their job to use their discretion to demand more proof, or deny.
That right there should be an anti-trust case. I am big on the free market, but that whole concept hinges on transparency in pricing.

Finnish Rock band Hurricanes and their "Get On"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGCviZAdxeY

it is not possible to assign a sensible meaning to the lyrics. This situation arose from the deficient knowledge of English by the singer, Remu Aaltonen. The words were supposed to be replaced later by proper English, and Remu’s words were only meant for a demo recording. However, the other members of the band, as well as the producer, thought that the delivery was strong, and decided to stick to those words, despite opposition from Remu Aaltonen. The unique words are part of the charm of the song.
Hm. I'd like to understand more. Why not just go back to your other health care plan? (or, I suppose, why not just pay the penalty?) Also, what circumstances lead to $13K a year? -- I'm only familiar with folks at the lower wage spectrum that are definitely not paying that and are getting much better coverage (read: any) than they would've 5 years ago. Thanks in advance.

Health expenses only matter if they exceed 7.5% of your income for a given year. Using flex accounts though, that would give you a big tax win. Flex and HSAs are really the only way to really get tax savings on health since the standard deduction was doubled in the Trump tax plan.
It’s also tax exempt income for some stupid reason, so $1 extra in wages is less than $1 extra in healthcare resulting from health insurance benefits.
