I attended college part-time and intermittently while my kids were somewhat young. My first full-time job at age 41 was a corporate job that paid above minimum wage. (I have been told that expecting better than minimum wage when starting work so late in life is crazy talk. So I think I did well.)

I think the US desperately needs a "mommy track" for college that encourages women with young kids to go to school part-time and take 6 to 8 years to complete their degree. I think this would solve a lot of problems.

Waiting too long to have kids can involve problems for both mother and child. (Among other things) An older mom can require fertility treatments to get pregnant at all and there is higher risk of certain birth defects in the child.

Historically, we resolved these conflicts by having women have babies young, but with a financially established husband who was typically older. Now, that is decried as evil patriarchy.

I'm well aware of the downside of having kids young and being a homemaker a long time. I'm divorced after having been a homemaker and full-time mom for a lot of years. But my problems were compounded by various factors.

I'm quite confident that one of the smartest things I did was go to school when I could. I have thought for years that we should foster young moms pursuing their education. But I have no idea at all how to start such a movement, for lack of a better word.
It's a pity that you can't enjoy a good social health system where there is parental leave and all that. I just got a baby with being basically (university) student in Germany and it didn't ruin me. And Germans still look up to countries where the social system is even better, such as the Scandinavian countries.

Play Store itself behaves similarly to App Store. Android lets you sideload through a separate mechanism, and all Google has to do is remove that switch from Android
The opposite is true and I'm glad race is not part of it. These maps are visualising information about aspects of life and we can see where patterns emerge so we can ask questions. This is opposed to starting with perceptually legitimate categorical ways seperating people and working inwards, which isn't usually useful. "We need more discrimination" isn't a sentiment I can get behind.
> That's my big gripe with the NYT article and charts - these would be considerably more informative if they were also broken down by race. As it is, the real story is incredibly blurred.

You'd immediately have to double the number of graphics and do god knows what to the amount of text, and that's if you just did a very simplified racial breakdown. Better to leave an ethnic, racial, or religious breakdown (and they're all worth discussing) for a follow-up article.

I recently had to write a lot of unsafe code in C# to interoperate with a driver.

As advanced as modern languages are, the excellent memory models only work within the language. Interoperability requires that you can work with memory directly when needed. (And only when needed.) I don't have a lot of Rust experience, but C# has plenty of tricks to avoid unsafe code but get close enough to working with real memory.

One thing that would help is if there was some kind of a tool that could take C header files, figure out how the structs and functions compile, and generate the Rust / C# structs and fuction signatures. This is such a time consuming task to do manually in C#, and novices screw it up all the time.

(I wish I had the time to do more work in Rust. It's a great concept!)
Pitch accent isn't necessary either. Just like English, Japanese has many different regional accents that sound different, yet people from one region can still understand people from another.

The difference is that people write with more homophones than they speak with, just as written English is different from spoken English (more subtle word choice for brevity), but that is not necessary for communication, and written language can adapt just like children's books which don't use Kanji.

Hanja worked fine in Korea, and there still remain a contingent who insist on it, just like there remain people who insist that Kanji is necessary. The fact that people born blind can speak and understand both languages shows this to be a lie.
How do you get laid off?
A well functioning market contains the incentives to bring correct information to it. If Ackman was right about Herbalife then he stood to make billions. He wasn't, and the process that unfolded over 5 years was a Good Thing, both for The Market and Herbalife (he was actually right about some things, which they fixed).

Herbalife is an excellent example of the market providing the right incentives and those incentives working out in the way we want them to. If Ackman had exited his position after the original corrections were made by Herbalife everyone would've won: he would've made money, long investors would have a stronger company, and Herbalife would be a real business. Instead he doubled down and so he lost, but everyone else still won.

This sounds like a really high functioning market to me. If you think TSLA is bound for 0 there are ways you can make that bet today. The fact is no one thinks that, and so no one is trying to make that bet. Same with Twitter.

> Taking these two strategies together, you can simultaneously have someone short a stock they expect to go down soon and someone else long a stock they expect to go up over 5-10+ years. Both can be right at the same time. You can then derive from this point that short interest is of limited to no concern to a long investor, which was my original point.

Right, but this doesn't mean that the incentive to devalue companies that need devaluing doesn't exist.

So as I said, I'm still not sure what you're arguing. Shorts seem to be doing what we want them to do. The market does not seem broken.

This feature is the sort of thing that a clever person will use as a shortcut to actually writing robust ETL code. I have had nothing but nightmares dealing with foreign data wrappers in Postgres.

The caveats using this feature -

1/ Strict upper bound on how much data it can pull in.

2/ MySQL migrations need to be run on both Postgres and MySQL

3/ No way to gracefully migrate or version

4/ MySQL’s “loose” typing doesn’t play well with Postgres’s “strict” typing. This means data can break the fdw.

5/ Pain in the ass to debug.

6/ This is debatable, but I don’t believe that application code (SQL code in this case) should live in the database.

7/ Postgres and MySQL have different performance characteristics. This can lead to hard-to-debug performance problems if you are explicitly or implicitly using a fdw in your query.

8/ If you want to keep a local copy of MySQL data in Postgres (to solve for #7) you then have to write code to keep it up to date. This defeats the convenience of the fdw.

9/ At least when I was using fdws, they didn’t have predicate pushdown. This causes you to do structure queries in a weird way to get filters to work as you expect.

10/ You have to manage schema type mismatch between MySQL and Postgres. This isn’t fun or productive work.

My experience is colored by inheriting a disaster of interconnected fdws. But given that negative bias, I still haven’t seen enough value from fdws to justify their use outside of small scale corner cutting.
Why does race matter for calculating when married or college educated women have babies?

To echo on Conor's comment, our keys will protect you from online attacks. The one you describe is certainly a threat, but still pretty sophisticate and requires physical contact with the key.

To protect from physical attacks you need stronger devices, for example Yubico now has an entire new line of FIPS certified products. Note that the cost is higher than the FIDO2 usb-a only key.

As Conor mentioned in other places, to obtain stronger hardware we'd need to sign NDAs with vendors, and thus we couldn't make our key open source. Personally, I really hope that this first iteration will be a success, so we'll be able to push the industry for even more open hardware, and eventually we'll be able to address threats like the one you reported.
The thing with the moving parts is doing better? Really?

That does not change the fact that SCOTUS has upheld the death penalty generally as being a Constitutional punishment.

In a lot of ways America is undergoing a "Caribbeanization" where there are two strata of society who rarely interact with each other except in contexts like buying something from a store and so have little concept of the other's way of living.
You can do it yourself, but if you buy from your local window decoration shop, they will probably install it cheap or even free of charge.
You're getting downvoted because it seems like you're plugging a book and didn't actually say why you cringe at the word "gap" - your comment is pointless and contributes nothing.

This was the open source outspin of the NSA with French SW. You have to assume that internally with their own HW and SW they are at least 100x better, not counting Shor with their Quantum Computer, which should have around 2000 qbits.
It wouldn't be overpopulated, even if that happened. It would take orders of magnitude of population growth to overpopulate the Earth.
You're probably being downvoted for not explaining what the book taught you that makes you cringe. Saying you read a book and now look down on some common, innocuous matter comes off as pretentious if you don't bother to give any insight.
The Order of Time spends some time qualitatively discussing quantum gravity, and the audiobook narration by Benedict Cumberbatch is really excellent.
Saying black is the "absence of color" only makes sense when we talk about additive color. For subtractive color, black is a color like any other, just like white is.

The entire area of dyes and pigments is intensely fascinating. I went down this rabbit hole while trying to get a set of paints for a toddler that mimicked process color primaries rather than the traditional but inaccurate red/yellow/blue primaries.

Additive color is in a sense a solved problem -- we can create monochromatic light (or at least very narrowly band-limited light) in all possible wavelengths, and all human perception of color is based on a fixed set of wavelengths. It is possible to produce lights that will mimic any color that humans can perceive.

Subtractive colors, on the other hand, are dependent on finding physical substances with emission spectra that roughly map to the gamut of human perception. There are no magic substances that produce a monochromatic reflective baseline, instead, we are dependent on finding substances that have emission spectra that are simply close enough to the complements of the human visual primaries.

That's a hard enough problem, much less dealing with the fact that actually applying dye or pigment to another physical substance involves chemical reactions that may affect the color of the pigment, as may exposure to ultraviolet or visible light, or changes in temperature. At one point I had a Canon inkjet printer and I switched to using off-brand ink, because it was so much cheaper, and looking at the photos now (~5 years later) the difference is stark -- the cyans of the knockoff ink have almost completely vanished, even from photos that were not exposed to sunlight or significant direct light, while the original Canon ink is still true to the original photos.
Make code hygiene your mantra. Piece at a time, make existing code better and make your code obey all the solid clean code principles you care about. If you want to TDD, make artificial seems on everything new and do TDD on the new stuff and start putting tests around areas at the smallest levels you can and start refactoring slowly in areas that you are touching. Make it a process that you always follow to have good hygiene. You'll eventually end up with clean code.
> "Know thy audience"

With end users I find it very hard to predict technical knowledge, which can vary by orders of magnitude and often include misinformation or the completely wrong focus, and which users themselves estimate unreliably. For that reason, unless I know better, I tend to aim low - better to tell them extra than to make it incomprehensible.

There seems to be ego tied up in it for users; if you aim to high, they won't admit that they don't understand, and if you aim too low they might get insulted:

I get complaints, often politely implicit, that they feel condescended to. How does one communicate the basics without sounding condescending? I have some sense of it, of course, but I don't feel that I know the trick.
Paradise Lost: Tourists Are Destroying the Places They Love
This last comment is very true. I remember when my wife and I were looking for a house to purchase, we did the math based on my single salary, not hers at the time. We knew we wanted kids soon, and she had already decided she wanted to stay home. The bank obviously approved us for a huge mortgage but we stuck to our calculations and we've been doing just fine since then.

I know a few couples who didn't take the loss of 1 income into account and they are really struggling.
I showed the prototype yesterday night to my aunt and uncle. They had issues keeping it in their hands, let alone pressing the button.

The tomu/yubikey nano are great products for a certain population, and certain use cases. I have a nano, for example, that I use for vpn and for conveniency. I don't use it, for example, for authentication to my personal accounts, because it's always connected to my laptop, and often time I'm not in physical possession.
Sure... in theory. I'm skeptical that there is going to be anywhere near as much demand for 5x levered exposure to ETH as there is for shorting ETH.
You can’t force people to accept treatment in US. While these might slow growth of the homeless population in dire need of medical help, it won’t prevent it.

To have no homeless, you have to have both resourcing for housing/medical, but also be willing to use force to compel those unwilling to get treatment/be housed where they have little choice. That’s a very tough leap to make.

The choice part never made sense to me - why would anyone want to live like that? But, as a society we value free will and therefore must respect the choices we do not agree with.
My understanding is that a 5mph collision should not even harm the bumper. As in, that's how they are designed. Maybe some paint will trade, but nothing that requires a repair
I don’t see any difference between an app making making one non-optimised GraphQL request for the data it needs vs. making dozens of allegedly “optimised” REST requests for that same data. If the API designer didn’t anticipate that use case then it’s going to be slow either way. Probably slower with REST due to the extra HTTP traffic, loss of query batching, etc.

Of course the states are free to outlaw the death penalty, that doesn't address whether or not it is Constitutional. There are plenty of things that are completely Constitutional but which are outlawed in the majority of states.

As far as popularity goes though, the death penalty has been more popular than not for all but a brief time in the 60's[0], and I think it's dangerous to conflate popularity with Constitutionality, or to suggest even implicitly that they should have any bearing on each other.

It's still stronger crypto vs passwords and tokens. It has certainly different use cases, and you need to protect your laptop in other ways, for example with a strong enough password to unlock the screen. It's certainly not a product for the masses, imo.
Why not? You see US and Chinese products in Russia and Ukraine, why not vice-versa? "But the dollar is so expensive", etc is not a legitimate argument.

There are a couple of projects that do this for Rust, depending on what your inputs and outputs are:

* https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-bindgen - Inputs are C/C++ headers, outputs are Rust type definitions and extern functions to interoperate with the type and functions in the headers

* https://github.com/immunant/c2rust - Inputs are C headers and source, outputs Rust code that is semantically equivalent to the C (modulo bugs, etc.)

* https://github.com/eqrion/cbindgen/ - Inputs are Rust source, outputs C/C++ headers that can be used to interoperate with the types and functions exposed by Rust

This man says: I could believe that. I think women suffer from depression more often than men, but apart from that they are probably more even-keeled than men.

I wasn't talking about the idea of overpopulation. I was surprised to see that the total count of kids was predicted to be so stable, while at the same time we're expecting ~1 billion more people in Africa.
Poverty is a much stronger link: http://www.censusscope.org/us/map_poverty.html

Look at the blob in Arizona for example on Without a college degree vs poverty. So yes the south east black population clusters in similar areas as poverty but out west they look rather different.
My first preference is medicare for all. However, I don't see that happening. Something has to give.
"Laid off" means your position is no longer available, so your husband leaves, dies, no longer has the resources to support you, or decides his money is better employed buying a sports car and you have to work for your own food. Even if in some of those cases you could find a different husband, it takes time and it may not offer the same financial conditions as the first one. There's no "market rate" for your services really.
Those all have different programming. It's even easier for loads of people to scream at Apple for removing one of their favorite apps.
I can totally see that.

But the other side is that they money they are asking for has to be taken from people who were responsible and can afford their families. Shouldn't we at a minimum require that if you seek help for family members you can't afford, that you take the same steps others take to not get any more kids you can't afford?

Because unless you have a good counter argument to that, you won't get anywhere politically.
You're right, I haven't! I imagine a lot of people haven't. I didn't say the statement was wrong, just not self-evident.
Some surprising takeaways for me;
Facebook uses a Django app in their infrastructure.
That app was in debug mode, revealing server secrets.
That app was also configured to use the Pickle based session storage, leading to one of the few serious RCE vulnerabilities in Django.

I'll have to remember this next time I think an exploit scenario is too unlikely.
Do you need a science degree to be a science reporter?
This isn’t really enough. What you really want is something that hoists C memory management into the the language you’re using; for example, the constructor for a high-level type would manage allocating memory and calling the constructor function, and the deinitializer would map to the custom free/close/release method. This isn’t really anything that I think can be automated; you’re going to have to write this wrapper yourself or find someone who’s already done it.
Sure. That's already basically how it works with rules for gathering evidence, for example. If you improperly gather evidence, it becomes inadmissible, and if it was critical to making your case then the accused will go free.

Once criminals start going free because of easily fixed procedural problems, those problems will be fixed quickly.
Not to mention that daycare in cities where people who tend to be dual earner make big incomes tend to live can often cost at least half of the gross of the lower earning parent. Meaning working is something people do for a net contribution of less than minimum wage, even as a high income earner.
