What reasons? It takes some discipline but I get to bed by 10pm pretty regularly because I wake up at 6am and at the gym daily at 7:20. If I am not asleep by 10:30pm my morning suffers, so I make sure I stop myself to get the sleep I need. In general that means starting to wind down after 9pm (usually 9:30) and then doing some light reading.
Um, no?

The most important job of a DB is store records which largely consist of numeric (including boolean) values and strings. Strings often need to be outside the ASCII range, and even in existing cases where they aren't supported, it's a limitation of the application and the users would really prefer unicode strings.

Even if you just target English speaking people from the US or whatever, there are a variety of non-ASCII characters that come up all the time, including accented characters, various currency signs, etc.

I've worked with amazing H1Bs. The problem is the great ones are always underpaid and by the time and the bad ones are encouraged to do anything to keep their jobs because their entire future is on the line.
People keep bringing this up. There was at least a theory about what the early computers would be good at that prior methods wouldn't. Then, they hoped they could improve them with research to do more. Even the ENIAC in the 1940's got used as a large calculator for defense applications:

Similarly, you could say what value ARPAnet would provide, disks, email, telephone, and so on. Whereas, using this argument for quantum computers (here) or blockchains (another thread) makes no sense given they aren't doing anything better than existing techniques. They're actually a step back on most metrics. Q is both a research tool and a commercial waste of money until it proves to be better than a classical computer at some practical job. An example where quantum tech was theoretically better from the start was Quantum Key Exchange with modifications on the line detected. Even that goal was easier to solve without quantum methods, though.
Quebec (Canada) has a system like that, it's called free higher education, and you pay with a fraction of your salary called "income tax" (it's actually 2k$ per session, not completely free)
Very interesting findings. Learned some new things. Thanks for sharing
Pretty much. Essentially if you run a thought experiment through several permutations you can roughly compute that this is the case. I always find blowing things up to extremes usually makes certain things come into focus quite well. For example if the organisation has 100,000 people across a multiple geographic regions and then it is discovered that one of the bathrooms have run out of toilet paper, it's not really feasible to call a company all hands meeting to decide who should buy some more toilet paper, where they should buy it from, which brand it should be. If everyone is involved in every decision that pushes productivity to absolute zero the larger the firm grows, though it possibly works for extremely small cases.

By the same token flip the lever hard in the other direction. Imagine management never trusts any expert or IC to ever take a decision on their own. Things get produced but quality plunges abysmally.

There are many configurations things can be in, but from some basic thought experiments you can work out that there is likely a certain operational envelope with a handful of parameters that produce stable, workable results inside the operational envelope and either unstable or unworkable results outside of it.

Some other thought experiments you can try are imagine a world in which no one is trustworthy. Well, it's close to impossible to do business because you have to spend so long figuring out who to do business with that you can't do business with anyone. Imagine a world where nobody ever cheats you and always presents an accurate, trustworthy description of what transaction will take place. Business flies along because you can do away with a lot of overhead that goes in to accounting for that stuff. So it seems trust is an important parameter. Firms make sense from the perspective of having people available (you can trust you have resources to meet demand) and who you trust to be able to complete the work. If you have to go to market every time you can't necessarily guarantee the company you are doing business with will stay in business or keep you as a client or any number of things. So there's a trade-off being made there and there are certain inflection points where on choice stops making sense and another one starts.

Just thinking about it now it seems that the parameters include, but at not necessarily limited to:

communication bandwidth/overhead
trust
alignment of incentives
I think this can't happen in the scenario you mentioned of zero personal data stored, since you have a simple webpage , no personal data is stored, then your backend should have no customer objects to handle.

I seen the issue you described where an exception will log all the function parameters but if I am not wrong this logs are configurable so you can check the framework you use about this logs and probably is a good idea to delete old error logs(I know as developers we are busy and don't want to mess with log configs and cronjobs etc but even without GDPR an error log file containing DB data since 2017 is a security risk)
Currently the Core Exam is 50/50. It's designed for career-readiness. Our Technical Steering Committee is composed of majority of hiring managers, so it's intended to be useful for them -- that is, what are the qualifications desired in an entry level software engineer?

We are debating having a Core general exam, and separate per-subject tests, similar to SAT I vs SAT II.
You've put it into words better than I have. To acquire all shares of a company requires a premium, but to acquire all shares of a crypto makes it worthless. Companies and cryptos are not remotely the same thing and frankly "market cap" is a misnomer when applied to cryptos; it misleads more than it enlightens.
Piping program output is just function composition. The downside is that it works over expensive system processes, and data must be serialized. It's a fragile system where instead of using built-in functions, we use "standard" executables.
Many subreddits have rules on when you can do self promotion, such as a separate thread or a specific day for posting. That's when I do it. [See this post for example](https://old.reddit.com/r/getdisciplined/comments/a3oz48/meth...). As well, you can see in that post that I don't directly promote my app but instead I ask questions regarding the process by which people schedule their day.

Provide value without expecting value in return. If you look on [/r/entrepreneur](www.reddit.com/r/entrepreneur), you can see some posts where people use their blog posts as a reddit post, which provides value for those who don't read their specific blog. Then, you can link back to your own blog at the end of the post. In doing so, you provide value before you promote yourself, and so any products or services you then promote will be associated with quality to your readerbase.
Or you can recall the snickering when the iPad was introduced. Didn't seem to have negatively affected it.

You can actually write your own spreadsheet nowadays and I'm not even sure this is going to be harder than to write a good outliner. I advice using HDF5 for the file format.
I think it would be a distinct recruitment advantage not to have a cofounder. You could reallocate equity you would have given to a cofounder, to early employees. Cofounder or no, money talks.
Does this "lish" data model map into a spreadsheet with simple values or other spreadsheets as the cell values? I have been looking for a good tool to handle manipulation/editing/presentation for this kind of recursive data model.
> The government never had to be involved with financing higher education to begin with.

The government needed to become involved to make education affordable to students without wealthy parents. If the market was going to take care of that by itself, it would have happened before the government got involved.
You're probably right. I took a few undergrad business courses when I went to college the first time. They were the most...regimented I guess is the best way to describe it. Every single section of the lower level business classes had their tests all together in a big 300 person auditorium on Saturdays. Upper level courses also required students to wear suits to class.

It's probably mostly a function of how much they feel the need to treat students like kids. Even though my university had a very highly ranked business school, business in general was kind of the refuge for people who wanted to go to college but weren't sure what they wanted to do.

>I completed all my English lit and writing requirements in high school so not sure how those classes worked things.

I took 1103 instead of 1101 and 1102 because that was a thing you could do if your SAT score was high enough. It was much less high school like than the business classes. World Lit was an elective and it was nothing like high school, no attendance requirements, and no grades except for a 2 papers.

Supposedly the Gatwick drone was a larger, possibly industrial type. I made the point to illustrate the bounds of the problem. It's easy to assume it'll always be quads but it's very likely we'll see a variety of different configurations in the future and any solution should be flexible.

This is so tragic. I wonder if legalizing the recreational use of pot nationally will take enough of the profits out of it to reduce demand for this kind of illegal grow site.
Think about it this way, its less about learning everything you need to know, its learning enough about learning that you can learn the minimum and then learn even more once you pass the bar.

Which will result in far less new construction.

The Chapters Indigo approach to this has just been pricematch Amazon online, and charge more for the same items in their retail stores.
How is Google's TPU chip a commodity? If anyone is commoditizing a ML chip, it's ironically-enough Nvidia <nvdla.org>. (And the RISC-V ecosystem will most likely get there eventually, but that's kindof a given anyway. Systolic arrays are very old tech, of Atari Transputer fame.)
Yup -- I remember in college (in the early 2000s) how slow it could be for a bookstore to get a book in that a professor required for class (there was a book of poetry I literally could not find in the state of Georgia and my professor let me photocopy the work she had assigned until I could get my copy from Amazon b/c she recognized that I had literally called every single major and minor bookseller in Atlanta and the publisher and none could get me a delivery time ahead of Amazon, which was still going to be after our test) and by the time I graduated, most of us just reflexively went to Amazon rather than trying to fight over 6 copies Barnes & Noble or the college bookstores would manage to get in.
The school doesn't get paid if the student doesn't get a job. Pretty different.

Something I always wondered about - what's the current state of affairs wrt Gtk and Qt support? Both are available (different versions, even!), but which one is preferred, so to speak?

I've noticed that e.g. Debian installs the Gtk version of Lazarus by default, if you use the virtual package. But it's not clear whether this is a conscious choice, or it just dates back to when they only had Gtk.
Of course it's hairy - that's kind of the point of this whole discussion!

People who use databases naturally end up wanting to store Unicode strings, and people naturally want to query them in locale-sensitive ways. Your Mueller example is a fine example of this. Databases have deep support for this, and you can also build your own compromise, so to speak, on top of the database with ICU or another library if it doesn't meet your needs.

I agree and think OP's comments about industrial drones are probably a bit of overkill. The majority of cases will be some consumer level drone, probably a lower-mid range one because it's nearly guaranteed to be lost.
it's important not to conflate federal loans with private loans. neither can be discharged during bankruptcy, but only federal loans are guaranteed by the government. also, the government sets the interest rates on federal loans.

a private student loan is not a particularly safe debt to issue. even though the loan cannot be discharged, there is still a substantial risk that the borrower will never be able to pay it back. credit cards and personal loans are a pretty good comparison IMO, as the main difference is the fact that student loans cannot be discharged. this is in fact priced in already; even private student loans have much lower interest rates than any other kind of unsecured loan.
Meanwhile, in an alternate universe...Sears saw the coming of the Internet, put revived their dormant catalog business and put it on the web gaining a first to market mover advantage over nascent on-line bookstore Amazon. Fast-forward to alternate 2019 and Sears is one of the largest internet companies on the planet after a painful early 2000s where they shed 70% of their brick and mortar retail presence in favor of a distribution center model to service their still growing on-line retail operations....

Sears Airlines, once just a rapid cargo mover for the company starting offering bottom rate global flights for passengers...which gives them another venue to push their catalog...in flight sales.

Sears Shows, ready to launch in Q3 2019 is expected to be the second largest on-line Television and Movie delivery network on the planet with many shows featuring Sears exclusive brands in them.

Sears Craftman brand, already the largest 3d Printer manufacturer, starts offering educational discounts to middle and high school students.

SearsNet, once a staple of 80s and early 90s era stores, revived like the catalog and rebranded from the Prodigy online service, starts to finally offer a new service called "Computers in a Cloud" where consumers can rent computers over the internet and run arbitrary programs on them. This is leveraging spare capacity in Sears' service oriented computing investments, often housed in old Sears warehouses and properties that were no longer useful as retail spaces, but could be reconfigured as compute hosting centers.

Highly anticipated, next year's unveiling of the Sears Car, built using Craftsman tools and easy to drive. It promises to combine the latest in electrical vehicle technology with the comfort of corinthian leather.
This reminds me of the rule in particle physics: Anything not forbidden is mandatory.

Our third party proctoring service handles the KYC, as well as the LogMeIn. We did some vetting, and they are used by some well-known MOOCs and universities' online courses. It's a concern of ours as well, which is why we try to offer in-person proctored tests or appointments.
Think I’m on a pet project at the moment. It’s probably going to hit the buffers in a few months and I don’t think there’s much that can prevent it. So why not use the time to improve my CV?

I’ve had several of those “dead space” periods s projects wind down and you have to use the time productively, is my view.
But some of that income tax gets lost in the education system. It would be much efficient to just pay back to the school you went to. Then there’s no chance of it getting spent at levels above the school.
Very tue.
Coming back to OP, long before this point would have been reached, you might have switched to a different process (probably including VCS setup). But as OP states: many of us are not Bank of America
So in summary it's a hard problem and requires some smarts to get right? Then we agree.

Retreating to ASCII is not the answer, and "full text search engines" don't even solve the same class of problem, such as say paginating a list of local towns by name.

Financially, it would be throwing away a dollar to try to save a couple of dimes. There is no scenario where you would be better off by doing so.

But if the low-paying job is crummy enough, maybe you don't care about strict financial calculations...

This "special butterfly edge case" == anyone who wants to specialize in the humanities attitude will probably lead to a bleak future. Life does not begin and end with technics nor economics.

Supporting the continued interest in the historical, artistic, cultural, literary and philosophical development of mankind and likewise supporting the preservation of these fields shouldn't be seen as 'catering to those types'. If you'd like to live in a world devoid of art, culture, and history, but efficient, logical, and completely determined to the apex, be my guest; it sounds like tons of fun.

If these systems are to be adopted nationwide they'll have to figure out a reasonable way to fund studying the humanities for more than just 'a handfull[sic] of true scholars'. Traditions and whole fields of disciplines don't live and die off the progress of a few geniuses--they are worldwide human endeavors sustained by a complex of economic, political, and pedagogical interests. Maybe that means this sort of model is only fit for 'trades', but eliminating support for the humanities wholesale wouldn't work.
You're trying to use the wrong kind of law for the problem at hand.
Notes on Test-Case Reduction
> At Lambda, students pay nothing upfront. But they are required to pay 17 percent of their salary to Lambda for two years if they get a job that pays more than $50,000.

This appears to create a cliff:

If you make $50000 a year, you keep $50000 a year.

If you make $51000 a year, you pay 17% ($8670) and you keep $42330. That extra dollar cost you a ton of money.

It really ought to be a marginal rate like tax brackets.
I think amazon got to play by different rules though, it would be a very different thing for an established company like Sears to reinvest all of its profits into growing its digital platform in the 90s, 00s, or even now. There is no way investors would have stayed on for that ride.

Fungibility is fundamental to money.

One dollar should have the same value as any other dollar.

If I had to verify every dollar I accepted wasn't used in illegal activities, then it would undermine the fundamental principle of equal value units, the coins linked to the WannaCry hack are now less valuable because they're blocked by several exchanges, if you're unlucky enough to accept those coins then you're stuck with coin that is accepted in a lot less places.

There's a reason why the "gold standard" was in a soft metal that could be easily reshaped and melted to fit standardised units and didn't corrode or "break" lowering its value, and not diamonds or gems, where each crystal has unique collection of properties, and thus market values, imagine having to have an assessor to be on standby check the value of every one of your customers gems or bitcoins.

It's also fundamental that you should be able to go to a local coffee shop every day without the threat of being mugged by someone who saw your bitcoin wallet amounts, and your tx sending money to the coffeeshop enter the tx pool just as you buy a coffee.
> Where is the SEC investigation into the CEO’s looting and plundering of the company?

Is that even a violation of anything within the SECs purview, if all the reporting is in order so that the stockholders have the information about what is going on?
Thanks for the tip! Can you elaborate? Do you mean teaching to the test, or something else? There's a whole research field for large scale assessment and evaluation methodologies.
>The US has laws and I expect our justice department to arrest those who break our laws regardless of their nationality if they step into our country (or allies).

Do you expect every citizen of a town to be punished because the store ownet broke the law then? As that's the equivalent of sanctions.

>The WTO submitted a report last year about the efficacy of sanctions (and it happens to be on Iran) for those curious

This report completely ignores the morality of sanctions, waving it away by saying it's preferable to war, and still finds sanctions largely ineffective.
If I understand correctly, at least at elite universities, that's about meeting contacts, not so much about meeting spouses.
