No they don’t, their tenants pay the property tax. I own a rental property in New Zealand (not out of choice, long story) and the rates are paid from the rent. I don’t chuck in the extra $120/month from my other income.

fb and goog have a captive market. no competitor is going to sell ads to their customers. they would lose money and that's it.
Sharing pages between user processes and kernel is extremely bug-prone, because threads in the user process can mutate the data while the kernel is reading it, leading to all kinds of race conditions. You can't depend on user processes respecting mutexes for security.

You can make this work by removing the page from the user process before making it available to the kernel, but the synchronization overhead of doing this (especially on a NUMA system) is probably worse than copying moderate amounts of data.
That's nice in theory. But it doesn't fit the facts.

1) The whiteboard questions are unrelated to the job opening.

The interviewers have no idea why you are there. They don't know what your resume says. They don't know who you might be working for. They don't know what you might be working on. Would you hire someone to work for you without knowing if they were going to clean your house, install new lighting, or rebuild your kitchen? How exactly would you interview a person if you don't know why you need their skills? Or how their skills are related to the task? Asking a carpenter to "whiteboard" the steps to clean a bathtub during an interview is insulting.

2) The interview is being conducted by people who have almost no job experience.

My experience is that the interviewers are recent college graduates. And that the whiteboard questions are related to their data structures class. They are focused on details like worst-case behavior of the algorithm and whether you can quote the log-log-n asymtotic performance. This entirely ignores the fact that the actual behavior depends a lot on the actual measured performance. Take, for example, my paper on garbage collection (http://daly.axiom-developer.org/TimothyDaly_files/Bozm84.pdf) where the actual data access pattern matters. Theoretically strong algorithms usually exhibit bad behavior because of data access patterns, CPU caches, look-aside buffering, and/or branch prediction failures.

3) There is no known relation between being effective and being able to present information.

I know people who are strongly autistic, to the point of not making actual eye contact or giving any verbal feedback at all, appearing to be "not paying attention"... and then create beautifully crafted excellent code. I also know people who "talk a good game" and couldn't write a "hello world" page in html. Please point me to any study that shows that whiteboarding is an effective way to judge candidates. Even Google's HR head claims it is ineffective.

4) There is a ball-pit / clown nose aspect to the interview.

"Everybody does it" so wear the clown nose. I've had a fair number of interviews in my 48 year career. Most of them were with people who needed something done and I could demonstrate my ability to do that. Interviews exist for a reason. Asking me to whiteboard Knuth-Bendix because you're writing an editor is reasonable. But the same question for a customer service job would be nonsense.

These "clown-nose" interviews are simply insulting and a waste of time. Walk away.

I haven’t tried Sainsbury’s but have tried Marks and Spencer’s frozen Indian dishes. It’s passsable if you’re desperate and missing it but the quality and taste isn’t great imo. I think some other food like Italian lends itself better to being reheated.

With respect to restaurants, I’m in central London, so not a suburb with many Indians, and there’s some decent places like Dishoom, Roti Chai etc but I wouldn’t say they’re cheap. Im thinking outer London in the west and then places like Birmingham probably have cheaper places but I never go out that far.

That might have been a bad example. But if you're comparing military spending between one country with the VA and another with universal health coverage, it will mess with the numbers if you include the VA. It's the other country with the difficult accounting.
Do you have kids yet? I lived in such cities from when I left home at 17 until 36, but the arrival of kids... well, I want them to have a yard to play in, in a chilled neighbourhood, close to the beach and hikes, etc.

As well as more room so they can all have their own bedroom, we can have a family area, etc.

When they leave the house, I’d probably move back to the city to an apartment.

In essence, I’m agreeing with you but I think it also depends which life stage you are in as to what you prefer.
Improving Big Data by Improving the Data Field
This isn't correct. The real world accuracy record of people with handguns, even supposedly trained professionals like police, is pretty dismal. Sight radius is very significant, by something like a multiplier of several times. This is why all military organizations and all special police forces use long guns if they can.

Magazine capacity is significant, but slight by comparison to handgun vs. rifle, especially in the context of mass shooting and terrorism. Magazine capacity is most significant when it comes to gun vs. gun.

> Typically international airports were considered to be "4A-free zones" because they weren't considered "US Soil".

That's never been the case. International airports have always been acknowledged as "U.S. soil" and the 4th amendment has always applied. However, the 4th amendment, but its terms, only prohibits "unreasonable" searches and seizures. Searches incident to a border crossing, was always considered "reasonable," on the theory that nations have the inherent right to control and tax goods and contraband crossing their borders.

From my experience with a GTX 950 and a GTX 1060, the macOS Web Driver from NVIDIA doesn't seem to care about virtualization, and it works fine (assuming the drivers and passthrough are configured correctly).

Windows is a different story, and I had to use a patched vBIOS[1] to get my 1060 working without Windows 10 throwing the dreaded "Code 43" error (when it detects virtualization and refuses to work). In my case, the CPUID workaround mentioned in another comment didn't help.

As for VT-d, I believe the unlocked "K" processors from Intel all have VT-d disabled for some reason.

This assumes people spend at the 33% level on housing.

You'd have to actually know what people are spending on housing, after accounting for spouses/roommates.

It could end more being more or less than 23 million, easily.

Also, some people will own their home or live at a family owned home.
> No site is doing anything useful with the counter.

What do you mean? In the article I mentioned that at least Google and Github refuse to authenticate if the counter is less than the last seen value. So using backup token does invalidate the primary one.

> If they steal a primary yubikey token, no. The counter is stored and managed only in the secure element part of the device. If they steal a primary u2fzero token, which of course the proposal depends on, the counter is not protected in any meaningful way.

Where did you get the idea that the counter on u2f-zero is not protected in any meaningful way? The counter is maintained by the ATECC508A chip and is incremented on each authentication. And also see my adjacent comment about reliably preventing primary token from returning a counter which is as large as that of backup token.
As a father to two so-far-healthy young boys, one soon to be a teenager I feel devastated at the thought of either of them having to endure the level of emotional chaos that Katie went through the moments leading up to her suicide attempt.

Thanks for sharing - that was an incredible story. I find David Blaine fascinating because many of his magic tricks aren't tricks per se, he just does things that would be unthinkable for the average person. For instance he often takes a bite out of a wine glass and chews it up, and it seems like there must be some trick to it, except in one of his TV specials he goes to a dentist and reveals that his teeth are all worn down and messed up from eating so much glass.

As another New Zealander with an investment property I thought the government closed the loss-making rental loophole s few years back. You can’t use rental losses to offset personal tax so why would you rent at a loss?
I don't see how that is relevant. If anything, handguns will typically fit more bullets within the same volume of magazine. A 100 round 9mm Glock magazine is smaller than a 60 round magazine for an AR-15. FWIW both are illegal in California.

No. That’s the way one may see the first time they’re learning what a SELECT statement is, but it’s most certainly not what you’d ever do in anything near production code.

The parent made this statement:

> ... for instance there is no way for `SELECT COUNT(star) FROM table` to do anything but retrieve every field of every row and return them to the SQLite engine.”

The only response here is, “Of course! That’s what you told it to do! Why would it do anything else—and why would you ever tell it to do that?!”

Edit: To be clear and not sound as though I’m just being dismissive, you can of course use `COUNT(star)`, but the parent made it sound like this was something non-trivial. There are better ways to write such a query when you care about the exact count of rows and, assuming you can’t depend on grabbing the max primary key due to deletions, you’re complaining about the database wasting cycles pulling back irrelevant info. Get to know your database, as it often has features to query such metadata in a much smarter and more performant way.

PS: I replaced the asterisk with the word “star” because it’s making the formatting of this comment atrocious. Apologies for all the edits. I give up now.

I don’t understand when people believe this - as an owner of an investment property in Auckland, NZ, I almost never can just pass on increases to my tenants, unless I want long stretches of no tenants, even with the shortage as it stands.

The market dictates what I can charge.

And if I have good tenants I’d rather keep them than immediately try to recover costs.
> Unfortunately millennials do not remember the Soviet Union.

Unless there's a sustained period of economic prosperity similar to what followed WWII, socialism will continue to gain support among Millennials. Most of the warnings around socialism sound similar to those we've heard about illegal drugs: "I smoked one weed and it ruined my life" = "I put in modest regulation and now it's the Soviet Union"

Edit: Specifically, unless Millennials experience some measure of sustained economic growth and stability, derived from capitalism, socialism will likely continue to rise in popularity.

Capitalism is in need of a better argument than "If you think free markets are bad, wait till you see communism!"

Turns out the 'stopping power' of handguns is largely the same regardless of caliber. Larger caliber has a high chance of stopping someone, but there are fewer rounds in a magazine. So the statistics work out about the same for all handguns across each category (full-size, compact, subcompact)

At the end of the day "rationality" and "ideology" are more or less synonymous. Few individuals believe their ideology is irrational, after all, and all "rational" really means is, "that which is most consistent with everything else I believe to be true."
Good. Every country needs such laws. From NZ to London to Spain to Iceland.

If you live in a place and earn your income there you should be able to buy or rent residential property. Otherwise you have no business exploiting the inflexibility of the market to adjust the available housing. Rent is becoming an indirect tax to the rich in many major metropolitan areas around the world. And it's massive, often up to 50% of the median wage.

A couple things stood out to me in this article:

One of Warren's main points is that this is visibly not true: "Real wages have stagnated even as productivity has continued to rise"

> “What she’s talking about is freezing the economy as it is, keeping things as they are." (Steve Forbes)

Unsubstantiated. I'd like to see an explanation of how this could be true.

I'd really like to see these conservative-corporate types actually defend their positions sometime without resorting to "socialism is bad!" or "the economy will falter!", which are just bogeyman arguments.
I hate talking to people after a long programming session. I simply can't do it, and I'm normally very social and outgoing. I just stand there and it probably looks like I'm gazing off at something; I'm just not there.

I've tried doing many things after a long session.. for me, the only remedy I've found is time. I just need a few hours.

I also produce music. This doesn't help because producing is very similar to programming in many ways. Puts me right back in the same state.

Having three+ drinks certainly helps... but not healthy nor sustainable on a daily basis.

[tl;dr - aim to take at least 250 steps every two hours to prevent buildup of blood clots]

It's not just about getting exercise. It's also about moving your legs sufficiently to ensure proper blood flow and prevent the formation of life threatening blood clots (disclaimer: that happened to me, I love to hyper focus and just sit in my chair and code for 8 hours straight, which turns out to be an incredibly high risk activity even for someone who is otherwise active, in good shape, not overweight, not a couch potato, etc).

Your legs are far enough from your heart that your body has evolved a separate pumping mechanism for them: the actions of your leg muscles when you walk or run are responsible for booster pumping the blood through your legs. Standing desks may be great for other reasons but they don't help here because your leg muscles still aren't driving that pumping action the way they would if you were walking or running.

My solution was to get a cheap fitness band (Fitbit Flex2 in my case) and set it to vibrate if I'm inactive for long periods. When it buzzes I get up, walk down the hall a couple times, and go back to concentrating.
