Before my current position I was having a really hard time finding a job because most of my experience was Flash and ActionScript (talk about dead ends...). What ultimately got me a job (well aside from having a friend at the company, which is admittedly the best strategy for getting a job) was just checking out the requirements on as many job postings as possible and cramming the frameworks that showed up the most. For instance, if you want a frontend job, learn React. You may be surprised at how transferable your prior skills will be if you just put in the training time. In a more ideal world companies would recognize this in applicants and offer to train you on their time.
> I disagree. These are somewhat loose business standards that people have a general idea what they mean.

The problem with these standards is that they aren't conducive to creating value. They mostly help with pigeonholing developers into neat categories so they can be treated as fungible resources.

> the back-end servers itself ( especially in production ) are taken care of by DBAs, sysadmins, network admins, etc.

The main idea of the DevOps movement was to break down these walls in order to establish a culture of shared responsibility. What's the point in that if we even have walls within the Dev part of that equation? People thinking "I've done my part. Not my problem anymore." once they've thrown their stuff over the wall can be hugely detrimental to an organization.

> For toy projects that you do for school, you can wear all the hats. But in larger projects, nobody has the time or domain expertise to wear all the hats.

You don't have to be an expert at everything. Asking and relying on the expertise of others is perfectly fine. A developer in my opinion should however be able to take responsibility for creating an increment of business value without having to resort to managers or similar interfaces for coordinating the efforts required to do so.

Dividing developers into "front-end" and "back-end" lends itself to silo creation and the notion that someone higher up in the hierarchy is responsible for the business value your code contributes to.
On the weekends I do sleep in until 7am or so mainly because my gym doesn't open until 7am on the weekends. I'm going to start building a home gym soon so I can save the time driving back and forth to the gym.

I tell people that while it sounds silly, winning that first battle each day is a big thing. Get up, win. Gym, win. Now skipping that donut or working on something I would normally procrastinate on is easy.

Nicholas Oresme essentially thought of them in the 14th century. I'd be surprised if as you suggest there weren't a lot of sporadic particular uses of the idea. But Descartes's big accomplishment was to abstract the coordinates away from any specific problem. No matter how many people prior to his work used coordinate ideas in problem solutions that's a major accomplishment.

I would argue that nothing in this sector is "production-ready".

For key exchange, SIKE looks promising (especially with the prospect of a non-interactive version).

For signatures, the SPHINCS variants are also promising. Gravity-SPHINCS is more intriguing to me than SPINCS+, but, they're both good forks of an already good design.
Folks, keep in mind that the value of code reviews, tests, etc. varies wildly from project to project.

- What kind of product are you building?

- How large is the project?

- How many developers are working on it?

- How experienced are the developers?

- How is the project being managed?

- Are there any hard deadlines?

- What is the budget? Burn-rate? Runway?

- Is the product established or are you just building the MVP and trying to validate market demand?

A two-person development team building an MVP with ever-changing requirements won't have the same workflow as an established company with a large development team and a bunch of existing users.
Is’nt the real problem that the market for web designers have imploded as social media became the primary platform for web marketing and customer outreach for most small businesses, killing of the need for a bespoke semi static website.

Whit that role gone most web designers now find they are more needed as traditional app developers creating crud interfaces to data backend which requires less design and more business logic.
That's a pretty cute idea.

Not sure how I'd feel about my cat continously jumping on my device though. Nevermind just letting it lie around the house for her to play with.

But that might have more to do with the behaviour of my cat! :P
Making Cyberglads 1 – Choosing a Game Engine (Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot)
I think another confusing factor about that specific example is that bus shouldn't ever start before their schedule. Otherwise you run the risk of a bunch of people missing their bus even though they showed up on time. I think bus, trains and planes can only be late.

For example this is an article about a Japanese Train company issuing a public apology for departing 20 seconds early. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-42009839

I dont disagree that JP Morgan should not be punished. I already explained that. You're confusing some things. Another example of your confusion is you mentioned here that the government is punishing fraud; but in reality, they punished them in secret for "unwritten rules" which were broken.

A regulator should not pick and choose who to punish, in secret, and for unwritten rules. That's ridiculous, and this kind of secrecy and ambiguity is not an example of good governance, fair treatment, or competitive markets.

In a competitive market where government treat everyone equally (no picking winners and losers) everyone abides by the same rules, transparently. That's not what happened.

In fact, when government decides to meddle in markets in secret and without any written rule or law, this raises fear of exactly that. Probably in this case, the end result seems to be not unjust, but the method is horrible, and I have no idea why they did it this way.

And yes, this kind of market meddling, or "picking winners or losere," is a type of market meddling, not unlike what I linked to.

I would suggest going back over the article to see where your confusion started, and also the posts here, and my other response to you.
Yes. They have at least two reasons to care...

1. Noise leads to complaints from neighbors. These can turn into legal issues, if the police are called, or HOA notified.

2. Damage to property. Noisy tenants are more likely to break furniture or leave the house in a mess.
Another interesting thing I noticed about this (our neighbor's house is being assembled in this way, and a couple more in the neighborhood) is that they'll hold off on window openings until after the roof is put up. So these wall sections are framed for windows inside, then sheathed as if there is no window there. After the roof goes up and shingles go on, they'll cut out the opening and throw the windows in. It's pretty genius as far as waterproofing a construction site goes.
I think it's less talent and more dedication. My coworkers are impressed when I'm able to help them on all parts of our stack, but it's really because of the extra time I spent over my career outside of work learning new things.

From the start of college to about 4 years into my first developer job, I spent most of my free time building my experience. I'd experiment with new languages, build projects using different tech, etc, all to deepen my experience across the board.

To summarize that with "talent" cheapens the work that has gone in to it, and I think most people who are in the same position would feel the same way.

It's mostly about time invested, though aptitude certainly helps. Talent is learned and trained, not innate.

This doesn't happen. Most of the time people either:

1. post something where you can understand what they mean but they didn't spend the time (not that you should have to) to refine the point and people are pedantic

2. post something so absurd that has no basis in reality.

I agree that the end result is screaming at each other but nobody is on Twitter to engage in debates in the first place. Nobody can present a valid discussion that was hampered in any serious way by twitter's character limit.

I used to think medicine was about science and then quickly realized it about engineering with respect to the body. I was thinking of attending medical school but am glad I chose the route to get a Phd in EE instead. It seems much more science and discovery focused instead.
To be frank, many of the GNU extensions are very useful. BSD tools have their own extensions over POSIX as well. Anyway, GNU software is FOSS and tends to be portable and so you can create something like GNU/FreeBSD or GNU/OpenBSD or whatever (Debian did it in the past). Naturally, the GPL/LGPL/etc. may not be "free" enough for the tastes of the BSD devs, but this is getting into politics.

This was written by someone in their 20s who doesn't have the first clue why conservatism is on the rise and why it's not fascism, but rather a response to government overreach, intrusion, and destruction of rights and freedoms. It's a messy process.

> Its unfortunate that C and C++ kept the mindset that automatically memory managed variables are stored on a SMALL stack

This is not a property of the language, it's a property of the runtime its running on.

In a normal userspace program under Linux (at least), you can stack allocate megabytes and the stack will dynamically resize (note that shrinking the stack might not happen in a timely manner).

But in kernel space, there's a conscious decision to keep the stack small and not dynamic. While it's not impossible to have dynamic stack in kernel space, that has a lot of implications.
Twitter doesn't work if you want to know what's hot out there, because lack of threading, awkward interface, no possibility to organise by subject. Finally the need and concept of "following" people, but by default you don't follow them since you only see a subset of their tweets, only the ones that are popular. If this is what you are looking for, use reddit.

Twitter works fine for it's original purpose, follow a few people and wanting to know what they post. You have to tweak a few settings:

• Disable "Timeline: Show the best Tweets first" (in "Account")

• disable "Quality filter" (in "Notifications")

• "Turn off retweets" for people you follow who tweet interesting stuff but retweet garbage

• stop following people who tweet more than a few times a week (nobody has that much interesting stuff to say!)

Slashdot had, 20 years ago, different types of upvote and downvote, so you could say things were "insightful" or "off topic". You could even alter the weightings attached to them so "Funny" would be negative rather than positive.

Of course, slashdot was also where I first encountered trolling and regular attempts at posting racial hatred or obscene images into conversations...

Looking at the app/block/deck in question, it feels like it is still somewhat unfocused. You compare it to your competitor and it comes off as "like them, just better".

Calling that person web designer is wrong on so many levels, just like in print the guy doing the preparations for printing and setting up machines is not a designer (although many designers do that part of the work too). In web it's the same, it's the step of implementing the design (a picture) into html and it's a separate role that's often been looked down by us (real?) programmers, but in reality it takes a lot of expertise to be good at it, so we should at least acknowledge it as a position that is much more about programming than designing. Actually I know quite a few people who are excellent in css and not know the first thing about design...
On the other hand, if I intentionally mislead you about the contents of a contract, it might not be binding.

Not really. In the son/daughter case, the calculations are:
expected daughters: 1
expected sons: 1/20 + 1/41 + 1/82 + 1/163 + 1/324 + …

So number of expected daughters = 1, number of expected sons = 1. In practice since women can't have an infinite number of children, then this wouldn't be an infinite series, so the real number of expected boys would be lower than one, but there you go…

Now, for the bus case, you get +1 if your bus turns up first, and -1 for every other bus that turns up first. Assume that it is completely random, then:
expected + score is: 1/2 1
expected - score is: 1/2 * -1 + 1/4 * -2 + …

Expected + is 0.5, expected - is -1.

Pretty sure most folk in Hamlet get a bad deal in the end, and Hamlet's brooding and whining doesnt outweigh that. Ophelia literally goes mad and is driven to arguable suicide. Everyone that mattered dies, and if that is outweighed by Fortinbras and his good fortune in the end. Hamlet is Icarus if anything, since it only goes well for him for a moment while everybody else is on a downward spiral.
1. Isn’t viewing someone as “beyond the pale” such that they deserve summary punishment and/or execution dehumanizing? How is that different than the guy who tortured small animals because he views them as objects and not living things?

Interesting. Google has been pushing TLS on the world, with its additional 750ms round-trip time to clients on the other side of the world, while taking advantage of their ownership of Chrome to use QUIC to deliver very fast connectivity for their users.

I've been reading "The subtle art of not giving a fuck" (https://www.amazon.fr/Subtle-Art-Not-Giving-Counterintuitive...) and there's one point I try to follow: if you don't have control over something, then you shouldn't let it emotionally affect you, aka "you shouldn't give a fuck". Otherwise your life will be emotionally driven by things outside of your command and you'll just become insane.

Example: you can prepare all you want for a job interview or a date, dress appropriately, rehearse all you need, this is all something you control. But ultimately you have no control over their final decision, so you shouldn't let it negatively affect you and be mad/sad/puzzled. Reach for rationality, understand why you failed and improve on this for the next time

Three doctors have examined me and concluded that my feet are different lengths which cause my back pain, but I can't afford any customized insoles at the moment.

In my lower back, right on the right of my spine I get occasional stabby pain which prevents a lot of movement. It usually stays away for over half a year and then it acts up for a few weeks but now it's been worse. When I get the initial stab it means that for the next few days it can come at the smallest motion that my back doesn't agree with and then after a few days everything seems fine.

Except for the last two months my left back of my thigh is also "stuck". The muscles seem to be fine, it feels more like a pinched nerve. Going to a professional masseuse doesn't help because they can't hit the spots that hurt, it feels more like its in my nerves. My left thigh hurts even when I'm coughing.

The doctors I've seen say that I don't have a slipped disc by visual examination but I haven't been scanned. What could and should I do?

Flashcards for YC Interviews
- there's no afterlife

How does the "default" death answers that there is no afterlife? You need to be a believer in both cases. And then depending on the answer of this one, all of the others could also change.

Also, the very definition of God is that you can't see it, so negating its existence because our 5 senses can't get it isn't a default negation of the existence of God. To be a real skeptical you need to be doubt and understand both absolute answers.
