Having lived in dozens of suburbs moving around in life, it seems very typical to me. Even challenging neighborhoods buried in sprawl would lead to local zoning opening up for shops. The problem often solves itself. Where I live now only had one nearby market within driving distance, but market pressure opened 2 more. Its almost as if there is profit in these overlooked planning issues and people like to win it.

This urban-centric thinking is odd to me. I do not want to live so far away from the natural phenomenon of earth, and I think it is unhealthy that so many want to push that lifestyle on everyone. It rings absolutely hollow to me to have effortless transport to a thousand places all manmade, and mostly devoid of non-domesticated plant and animal life.

It's entirely possible for a bookshop to sell a book self-published through CreateSpace : the author can purchase larger prints from CreateSpace (at a lower price than the Amazon list price) and have them sent to the bookshop. But what happens to unsold inventory ?

The traditional publisher takes almost all the financial risks : they pay for editing, type-setting, marketing and for the initial printing run of the book, without any guarantee that sales will cover the investment. Bookshops do buy the books, but they are allowed to return unsold inventory after a while, and the publisher takes the loss.

With a self-published author, who shoulders the risk of printing a copy and delivering it to bookshop shelves ? For CreateSpace in France, that's 15€-ish. The author can't, the bookshops won't, and the traditional investor (the publisher) is out of the equation.

FreeWill – Full Stack Web – NYC – Onsite – Fulltime
We built FreeWill (www.freewill.com) to solve two problems. 1) 70% of Americans still haven't made wills, and it is a major problem for their families. 2) $35T is going to get passed as the baby boomers pass away, and giving part of that to charity should be easier to allocate in the writing of wills.

FreeWill provides free, warm and intuitive wills for everyone, and we've generated more than $180 million in bequests for non-profits in just over a year.

Disclosing a mental illness at work sounds like the worst idea you could ever have.

I think it's better not to say anything and, if you wrong someone because of your illness, maybe tell that person in private and apologise. Unfortunately doing that makes it sound like an excuse.

I'm not saying I have a better solution. Some people simply aren't apt for the real world. That's sad but it's the truth.

> who otherwise had never dealt with statistics before.

And why is statistics required? Let's face it most companies who need "Data Scientists" are looking for regular BI guys with fancy terms. Most of the problems are solvable using out of box functionalities in python/keras etc. Sure there are places and problems which require hard mathematics and stats but those are few and far between.

"The more responsibility you take on, the more meaning your life has."﻿

As a developer, you would do well to seek out the feedback from users/the impact your work has. Allow yourself to feel responsible for that impact. Taking ownership will make you feel more engaged than the dopamine hits of 'closing JIRA tickets'.

"data monkey" is even more of a fitting name than the corresponding "code monkey". Much of so called data science leans more on the side of data engineer where one fits existing solutions to your specific data. The split of data scientist and data engineer is the most unfortunate. It's like splitting programming into program design and development (opposite of devops) in a specific language. That's done too but usually the spec is functional (behavior not FP sense) and not algorithmic.

If this pattern works for anyone, great keep running find it he limitations. I just believe that there will be a better structuring and selective application movement.

A true data scientist would be doing research into new solutions or high level improvements. This can't happen at typical sized companies unless it's the core product and not a feature of one.

The big data, data scientist/engineer bandwagon is a little like blockchain. Everyone wants to leverage it, there are places where it is suitable but not everywhere where it's applied.

Speaking purely for myself here, but no, that's not as demotivating. Having to deliver crapware is demotivating, because you know that either the customer or yourself will get burnt by entirely preventable problems. Having to chase a new job is stressful, but not as demotivating since you know (or, have faith that) the stress is temporary.
Or perhaps: because designers failed to take into account the possibility that someone would drive a too tall trck over the bridge?
Presumably grandparent means downhill. Twenty years ago, you basically couldn't buy an adult-sized helmet for alpine skiing even if you wanted to. These days, it's weird not to have one.

I think the change was due to some high profile deaths from tree collisions in the late 90s.
We were on a business trip. We had a drink one night and the subject of a coworker who had a spouse die. He said "we have to protect him" casually as we were talking about some of the upcoming projects. It was just assumed that we would make sure that this guy got whatever he needed.

Of course, you are probably saying...that's just the right thing to do...it's also the law to some extent...you must not work in America. I've seen people treated very poorly in a variety of situations. So had this guy and he was going to make sure that it didn't happen to my co-worker.
> It appears (to me, at least) that the current state of the literature on ASLR is that it is treated as a succession of theoretical arms races, which new defence militates against which new attack, and almost no attention is paid to the concerns of actually deploying it in a larger system; and the current state of the literature on functional safety is simply "we will assume that there are no randomization processes in the software" (from an actual paper presented at ESREL 2016).

Thanks for your explanation. To give a slightly different perspective on the quoted paragraph: mitigations such ASLR etc. do not protect against security bugs, they just make them more "inconvenient" to exploit. So "average script kiddie" will probably not be able to write an exploit for them. On the other hand, for well-founded agencies (think 3-letter agencies), these are no serious hurdles. In this sense, mitigations do not improve security in the sense of "less security holes". Instead their (probably unintended, though not undesired) consequence is that mostly well-founded agencies are able to exploit security holes. Whether this new situation is good or bad for software security is up to the reader to think about.
I’m concerned the medical field is what is being aspired too.

The number of examples of where standard of Care deviates from empirical research is staggering.

We still lose hundreds of thousands of lives a year in the US to preventable medical errors.

Many hospitals still refuse to use things like simple checklists that are proven to save lives.
It’s very context sensitive. QA usually needs someone strong to protect the team, as they’re the ones who most frequently get asked to make up for cost/scope/schedule/quality problems that others caused.

In other casss, being too standoffish causes local optimization (“look how efficient my team is!”) at the expense of the broader org.

The first issue is to have a compiler backend for that target. Someone has to write that. gcc supports more targets than LLVM.

Then, you have to make sure that it doesn't break; this means running on that target in CI, somehow. Given that you're already talking about devices that may not even have an OS... emulation can work sometimes?

Then, there's ecosystem stuff. You probably want some sort of HAL and support for not just one platform, but all of the platforms you're deploying to. So that's more work...

Finally, some platforms are proprietary and basically give you their own fork of gcc and so C is pretty much your only option anyway.

As a cyclist I've seen too many barriered-off cycle lanes that left me trapped and unable to go where I wanted to go, so if my choice is the main road or a cycle lane behind a barrier, I'll stick to the road. Separate lanes make sense for between-city highways, but inside the town speeds are already low enough - and space limited - that we ought to be able to share.
> I can see pretty clearly how it would be possible to argue legally that advertising a job internally and not externally (to a company) is discriminatory.

I think the precedent is the opposite. Companies and governments in the US do this all of the time without legal risk.

> And following that further along, in this way, I can see a pretty straightforward method of declaring any job advertising as discriminatory under that decision.

Perhaps a bit of a stretch here. Companies and governments will continue to advertise jobs

> So in that way it's not used to fight discrimination, but instead becomes yet one more way to fight the oldest battle in history: The battle to consolidate and preserve the power of existing institutions of control and weaken the influence of competition and punish outsiders.

This sounds like good old competition to me. Why would an established player not weaken competition with pricing or product value?

> What I found was, ebooks aren't that much less expensive.

Ebooks are that less expensive, because they are mostly free now: ebook filesharing communities like LibGen (part of the Sci-Hub universe) have had 95% of what I want to read. I own a Kindle and read voraciously, but I have never had to actually pay for an ebook. With cost savings like that, it is hard to go back to paper except for a very few genres (such as poetry, for me at least) where the physical artifact is an important part of the experience.

> The reason your phone (that's set to use "New York" as a timezone) knows to change the UTC offset from -4 to 05 on the first Sunday of November is because it has received a firmware update at some point since 2006. A standalone device from before 2006 can not know that the spring forward/fall back dates in the US changed, unless it's updated.

Fair enough, good point - I didn't think about that.

> Your statement "None of those require firmware updates. It's quite nice to never mess with the clocks and have everything just be correct" seems naive at best.

I never said that, possibly you're replying to a different person than intended.
For me it like "Why I cannot trade some Americans? They say that they are free."

You are mismatching unrestricted (wild) market with free market. Market, to be free, requires someone to play role of guard and punish bad actors, who disobey rules. Otherwise, bad actors will convert free market into non-free in no time.

Usually, such power is granted to a government or to an association of traders.

Currently, world have no united government. We have WTO, which is our world trade organization, but it have very limited power.

Why have enough power and strict moral principles to keep market free? As you said, USA cannot do that, of course, so maybe it should be job of Russia, Iran, China, or North Korea?

Its almost as if they are also humans who need to feed and enjoy themselves outside their job.

I know a few american teachers, grade thru hs. They report wages and supplies are a bit better off than in previous years, but that cricculum is so perscribed that they feel little leeway to actually 'teach'. They find themselves optimising for test taking and hate themselves a little bit for it. They are constantly under fire from other teachers with competing agendas, and beset by often abusive, sometimes nessarry, unions. It is a bad system that has evolved and the teachers are sad pawns in it. But there is still live to live, love to explore and things to strive for outside your job. Teachers have a heavy feeling of seeing their enforced ineffectiveness slowly degrade their community.

But screw teachers for not having extra time, amirite?

if you think of the web as a delivery vector for apps, it makes sense. Visiting a URL to play a VR game or initiate a VR experience makes sense and complies well with the original intent of URLs. Imagine launching (e.g.) minecraft.net and instead of a website, you get dropped into a demo version of the game with a contextual "frame" of information, links, and so on. Or a virtual showroom for a kitchen company where you can explore a 3d model of the kitchen, interact with the furnishings, and select new colours or models.

Putting 3d content on a screen sucks in the same way that putting a 2d plane in 3d does. Making 3d content explorable in 3d makes a lot more sense.
It's fine to not run on "tough on crime" because it was always bs anyhow. HOWEVER, I am watching what has been going on in the large midwest cities near my home and the lack of enforcement is causing crime to soar. There are definite and measurable consequences to not letting police do their jobs.

In my city, which is really just a large suburb, we have a guy up the street who is shooting guns at street signs from his back porch. There is a park and a church right behind where he is shooting. I brought this to the attention of the police as did another neighbor, but nothing has been done about it. I even showed them how I could tell where the bullets were coming from, it's not rocket science to see how each sign was hit at a certain angle. But no, I don't even think the cop was intelligent enough to understand what I told her. It's also sad that we have a former army vet who is drunk or on drugs and goes out and shoots at signs at night--no respect for his community, his neighbors, himself, or anyone.

If it takes bringing back caning or whatever, it's a small price to pay for civilization to continue.

And whether drugs are legal or not, they're a terrible idea, they will destroy your life the same as alcohol and cigarettes.
