You're denying that the IMF imposes austerity conditions as part of the loan agreements? Have you tried looking for the actual text of these?

Edit: your argument is

- IMF requires laws XYZ as part of loan agreement

- country implements XYZ exactly as required

- this is the fault of the country not the IMF?

Please cite examples of countries successfully "wheedling out of" or defaulting on the IMF.

What exactly is stagnating in your opinion? The Google Ads platform is currently one of the primary means of generating steady income for funding research and development efforts into new future technology, innovation, and growth.

I personally believe focusing so much on advertising is a short term narrow minded way of judging Google/Alphabet as the company is pretty much a fully fledged conglomerate at this point. Even so, the growth of advertising revenue has consistently increased 20-30% for almost 15 years now. Considering it's sheer size, that's definitive and definite success regardless of your qualms with how Google culture encourages employees to try new things even if they might fail. In fact, though it may seem random, it is exactly because Google/Alphabet is so willing to try and do new things that it can succeed in so many immensely different industries and markets from molten salt energy storage all the way to pest control using genetically modified mosquitoes.

Much of the reason HK and Taiwan were so fiercely independent is because they enjoyed far higher living standards than mainland Chinese. The more successful China is, the more likely Taiwan is to join them.

Keep in mind that Taiwan, like China, ideologically believe in one China. When it's more advantageous for them to join China than to be a US satellite state, they will.

SEEKING WORK | Gainesville, FL | remote/freelance

I am looking for full-time or part-time work, either one is fine. If you are looking to get a small project done, or you have an existing project where some maintenance work needs to be done (perhaps on a regular basis), then I would love to hear from you.

I am a very experienced Python developer, having used the language in all kinds of areas and situations, including web development (Flask, Django, Pylons, Google App Engine, etc), desktop GUI development, database access (MS SQL Server, MySQL, and Postgres), ORMs, REST APIs, scripting, backend development, automated testing, web crawling/scraping, data extraction and parsing/ETL, parsing, language implementation, games, etc.

I have a lot of experience with relational databases and SQL as well, especially MS SQL Server and Postgres. In fact, in all of my previous jobs I have used SQL, including designed database schemas, writing queries, measuring performance and optimizing queries, writing views and stored procedures, etc.

I am also available for technical writing (I kept a programming blog for many years, mostly about Python), and for front-end development using React.

(For the record: Although Python is my main programming language, I am also interested in, and have worked with, many other programming languages, including C, D, Delphi, Go, C#/Mono, Ruby, OCaml, Prolog, Lisp, Scheme, etc, on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux systems. I am also available to work on projects in these languages.)

No, it really doesn't. The indictments that come out before the full report are the cast-offs. The things they happened to find that were tangential to the main investigation, or were separated (and deemed safe to separate) for a plea bargain, etc. Their number tells us far more about the security and discretion around the main investigation than about the severity of what it has found.

Uh, holy crap. Good job. How did you do it?

What are some lunch ideas from your parents for my kids? Serious question lol.

Since tree nuts and things aren't allowed I find nearly all the options in the "kids lunches" section of the store are all carb/sugar heavy, everything from the yogurts -> granola bars -> fruit. About the fattiest/healthiest thing I can think of are milk (still a lot of sugar but better than juice), cheese strings, or I make these celery + cream cheese things (instead of peanut butter, lol). I also found they like a tomato + mini bocconcini salad but by the time they go to eat it the salt has already "liquified" much of the cut tomatoes.

> It truly is a form of quiet slavery, not based on race, but based on wealth and privilege.

That sovereign debt has this property is truly underappreciated in our society and I think one of the great tragedies of the 20th century. We see ostensibly liberal economists calling for increased sovereign spending and sovereign debt without understanding that the debt treadmill enslaves the poorest the in the heaviest shackles.

Generally the mathematical resolution for sovereign debt is inflation and the blind retort that I hear all the time is that the poor are in debt and inflation helps those in debt which I don't know where it comes from but is woefully ignorant of the thue state of things (the poor are usually not in debt having less access to finance and when they do they are in short term high interest debt - and many financial instruments, that the wealthy use to increase their wealth like options and leveraged trading, require availability of lending to exist).
Definitely unprofessional and disrespectful for an interviewer to have a temper tantrum during the process.

The nearest I've had is a manager who was angry in a 1:1 when I disagreed and blew a gasket. That just made me smile as I thought it was funny but I stopped him there and left the room. Nothing more was ever said of that meeting.
> 1) They are signed not encrypted. Anything you put in there is public readable, unless you encrypt your token after you generate it

Not a JWT expert but isn't this the point of a JWT or am I missing something. Sharing data between servers & clients while being able to make sure the data wasn't changed.

> 2) you can accept a range of encryption types, don't. Stick to one type and disallow any token that doesn't conform (this protects against people making their own tokens with 'None' as the signing algorithm)

People do this?? Why?
Wow, I haven't heard about that site before. Was ready to bash it for being yet another get-rich-quick Cryptocoin scam but it is actual real money (I believe?) and an academic project:

> PredictIt is a research project of Victoria University of Wellington. In order to take full advantage of the research opportunities presented by prediction markets like PredictIt, we make our data available to members of the academic community at no cost. PredictIt’s market data offers researchers a wealth of information that can be used to further our understanding of a wide array of subjects in fields of study as diverse as microeconomics, political behavior, computer science and game theory. PredictIt is excited to support the work of our researcher partners as they push the boundaries of human knowledge.
I found it via a web search. Although the "Get Started" link takes you to the same signup form as "Request Trial". I think if you list yourself as a hobbyist you automatically get the free license.
There are also a number of easy-to-make mistakes or gaps which can be introduced with the use of JWTs.

https://twitter.com/ejcx_/status/1063846166029197312 provides a great list of test cases covering the commonly reoccurring flaws.

The number and seriousness of these errors and how easy it is to make them does raise questions about how sensible it is to use JWT, unless you're really sure about what you're doing.

Uh... small biz owner here, it ain’t just farmers. I know very little about farming but I hear a lot about this:

“An agricultural subsidy (also called an agricultural incentive), is a government incentive paid to agribusinesses, agricultural organizations and farms to supplement their income, manage the supply of agricultural commodities, and influence the cost and supply of such commodities.”

Curious where the small business subsidies are? How about all these programmers that are in such high demand?

I am probably way off the mark here but I don’t have a lot of sympathy for this. This is a problem for a lot of people these days.

It's worth noting that Boston has been investing quite a bit in improving the T.

New rail cars are being added to all lines over the next 4 years. As another poster mentioned, a new North/South link project is likely to start soon. The Green Line is being extended into neighboring Somerville. The article seemed to focus solely on NYC.
Canada is ideologically quite separate from the US. Our histories diverged quite early, and we have fundamentally different ideas concerning governance. Linguistically and ethnically there's differences too.

China and Taiwan both believe in only one China, and both believe in reunification, albeit with differing ideas on how to accomplish it (Taiwan still calls itself the Republic of China).
I'm certainly with you on The Cloud. I've been expecting a backlash for a while, but not much sign of it so far. A big monthly bill from $CLOUD_VENDOR_OF_CHOICE seems to have become this century's equivalent of "nobody gets fired for buying IBM".

Makes me think: a few years ago, there was some or other beer in the UK that was (heavily) advertised with the slogan "reassuringly expensive". The Cloud vendors (perhaps AWS in particular) seem to be going down that path a bit. Very interesting to juxtapose the reluctance to pay for software with an apparent eagerness to pay for Cloud services.

The approach was to serve a reasonable amount of food. But the intent was to force me to try new things when I was simply being a picky eater. If I didnt like a particular thing after two or three meals, fair enough. It wasn't meant to force me to gorge myself, it was meant to force variety and it worked.

If I ate 80-90 percent and said I was full that was fine. When I was simply being picky because it was new, that's where that tactic came into play.

We are the fastest growing home security company in the country competing against the entrenched giants, like ADT, and the new-to-the-space giants, like Amazon and Google. To compete in this ever growing IoT home automation security space we must learn and iterate quickly, work collaboratively, and deliver creatively. In service to this challenge, our engineering team is proud to own and run the literal "full stack", from designing and building the circuit boards on our hardware all the way to coding the UI on our mobile applications.

My plan is to run this on a local device (probably a Raspberry Pi) and add server-side functionality to get around the browser limits. The rationale is that I can write my own commands that better fit my needs and which have access to local devices without giving all of my personal data to the ad giants.

If you're wondering why it's browser-based in the first place, it's because the browser solves the problem of UI, speech API, and won't require any installation/updates on clients (just the server).
As I understand your comment, you are saying:

1) thirty years ago you were given a sales pitch about Smalltalk that you disbelieved

2) You don't know how to make it work with a large team

3) That you gave up reading an article that is written for an audience of Smalltalk programmers on how to handle a particular situation, despite you yourself presumably not being a Smalltalk programmer

How is any of this relevant?
I think storing JWTs might make sense for some advanced scenarios where you have multiple services with varying security requirements but when you store JWTs, you lose a lot of the benefits of having a stateless token which doesn't require a database lookup.

A possible alternative is to just make the JWT expiry very short; like one hour; then you don't really need to explicitly invalidate the token.

With a real time bidirectional transport like WebSockets, you can make the JWT expiry even shorter; like 10 minutes and you can auto refresh it by pushing a replacement token to clients every 8 minutes or so. If the expiry is so short, you don't need the ability to invalidate tokens.

Getting your laptop stolen while you are logged into a service which relies on JWT is like getting your credit card stolen; it will probably take at least 10 minutes for you call your bank to disable it.

No, you are not. The extensive problem sets at the end of each chapter is main contribution of this work (imho). However this is not a shortcoming these days.

I spend upto ~1 hour on each problem. And then I google keywords from the questions. Someone somewhere has one possible solution. Usually , this is enough to set me on the right track.
The pre-selection is a big deal. The AD936x needs good front end filtering to reject n*LO. For instance 5x146 MHz = 730 MHz, which translates that 730 MHz nation-wide LTE signal smack-dab into the 2m amateur band. Unless they have a new front-end architecture in the AD937x, all the I/Q calibration won't help them.

Of course as you said, for $325 it's not a consumer chip, so some $ will be spent on external passives.
I’ll grant him that there’s no physical reason that any sort of underclass has to exist, or that if they do, their needs cannot be met- but that’s a political problem not a technological one.

It's possible he was acting, trying to put you in a "high-pressure situation" to see how you'd react. If that's the case it sounds like you probably did OK.

If on the other hand he was just being his normal charming self, then I guess you now know why they're hiring. Nobody hires because it's awesome; they hire because they have to. Which is because the last person quit. Which is because of this asshole.

I've had rude interviewers, but never to the point of ranting like that. In the moment I mostly just keep going with the rest of the interview and make the best of it, but later on I always come up with lots of ballsy things I could've said.
