The "STL" part (data structures and algorithms) part of the C++ standard library uses no OO design at all. The iostreams part does, but it's hardly visible to the user. (No, simply having syntax that allows you to write `data.function()` instead of `function(data)` doesn't make anything object-oriented.)

I worked for a large company that had gotten into trouble in the past, with written records used as evidence. All new employees were trained not to write anything down that we would not want to see on the front page of the WSJ. It was stressed that even content on personal devices could be subpoenaed and entered into the public record if issues arose.
It also ignores the fact that bullying exists, i.e. people indeed literally do "just start attacking someone for fun", and it doesn't stop with childhood. Anyone who's ever visited the comments section of any website knows this.

You're incorrect. At the company I work for, which is one of them mentioned in the article, a customer pays for DNA sequencing and analysis. Who pays for it is often separate from who's being analysed. We often have customers who pay for products for their family, friends, or otherwise. The name on the DNA sample is not verified in any way shape or form (and how could we verify it beyond just billing information?) You can opt-in or opt-out of public matching. You can download your raw data anyway (GDPR requires this if you're an EU citizen).

>Nicotine is viciously addictive. I don't see how anyone could consider one of the most addictive substances, and its associated withdrawal symptoms, to be "harmless".

Addictive stuff is bad if taking it has other negative effects. Food, water, and air are likewise addictive, but that doesn’t mean you should do without. You’d need to cite something other than being addictive to establish a reason to avoid them entirely.

>And yes, nicotine replacement therapy has a decent track record compared to other methods, which should not be surprising since you don't have to actual break the addiction. You just maintain the same addiction with a different delivery system.

I think the idea is to follow them up with a tapering off of the nicotine levels, which is much easier at that point.
It doesn't extend very far into the western suburbs, though. Example: https://goo.gl/maps/TZDgVrsLsbE2

At the same zoom level here are some exurbs of Dallas (Frisco and McKinney to be specific) which are pretty close to the edge of continuous development: https://goo.gl/maps/MsQBWBX9pH12

This part of the Dallas area is much farther out from Downtown Dallas than the first screenshot is from Downtown Philly.

(Also, this bit here isn't about Dallas vs. Philly, but here's a selection that shows off why I love Dallas's grid so much -- https://goo.gl/maps/1NEtE6WnYX42 -- it's from Plano, an inner-ring suburb that was mostly built out in the '80s and '90s and probably some of the '00s. Note that there are shopping centers at almost every single intersection of arterials. Since arterials are on a one-mile grid, this means that no matter where you live, you are never more than sqrt(2)/2 mi. from a place to shop even though you're living in a very pleasant suburban subdivision.)

I'd like to say that I appreciate this comment even though I disagree. It's true that you can be a perfectly good or even above average developer without ever using BFS, and interviewers shouldn't pretend this is not so. It's also true that software development is a problem solving job. You are paid for your ability to think for yourself and solve a problem. BFS is artificial but also a nice self-contained exercise that any developer worth his salt should be able to figure out.
Most of it pushes these quit-smoking drugs or just different forms of nicotine intake (which is the very drug you're supposed to be trying to quit in the first place).

Hell no. Nobody really gives a shit if you consume nicotine or not. We should just avoid doing so in the form of a horribly dangerous delivery system.
It is viciously addictive, yes, but it's all that other crap in cigarettes that lead to lung cancer and heart disease, two of the largest killers of all people.

Standard Oil was never a literal monopoly, there was always some competition. They had about 90% of the market at their peak, and it was down to about 70% when they were broken up.

True monopolies, e.g. Bell Telephone, local cable franchises, utilities, etc. are (almost?) always granted by the government.
As I pointed out earlier, I think of markets on a scale between perfect competition and monopoly. Which I believe is common view. So anything can be described as monopoly if it's not competitive enough.
I've used KeePass and one issue I do take with it is the UX. Bitwarden and 1password feel like cohesive apps and have good integration with many platforms. For KeePass I felt uneasy about some of the ports of it. There's a lot of good ones on desktop, less so on mobile.

Syncing is also a thing I prefer 1password and Bitwarden for. They both have cloud syncing by default. Some won't want that but I definitely do.

I think the idea is to follow them up with a tapering off of the nicotine levels, which is much easier at that point.

And indeed, if you fail to taper off, at least you’re doing yourself much less harm.
Nicotine addictiveness seems to vary based on consumption method, I say that as someone who smokes cigars but doesn't inhale (common practice among cigar smokers), I don't find cigars addictive in the least.

There’s a lot more stick than carrot from the government to connecting outside, so a lot of people are just avoiding concequences rather than doing what they want. OTOH, we complain about the same problems in our “free/open” internet as well.
Here it would be great to see if the optimizer (which was only on O2 for unfathomable reasons) understands the reserve() beforehand to the point that it can eliminate those checks. You'd have to look at assembly for that.
No, that’s also incorrect. The real number is way higher. They share 50% of alleles, and hence 50% of variants. But a lot of the DNA within two distinct alleles will be identical, except for (say) a single nucleotide difference.

in the US, most engineers take the standard two-year lower division sequence (calculus, linear algebra, a bit of diffeqs). for the most part, you learn technique rather than proving things. upper division engineering math courses teach more technique (e.g., more diffeqs).

but as madhadron says, you can't read/write proofs of upper division or graduate level math without the "foundations" material, which includes naive set theory.

do you need any of that to do engineering math? well, there are a couple of standard quotes, relating to the fact that the technique taught is brittle, in weird and subtle ways. the claim is that understanding the proofs tells you what the limits of applicability are.

"[F]or more than 40 years I have claimed that if whether an airplane would fly or not depended on whether some function that arose in its design was Lebesgue but not Riemann integrable, then I would not fly in it." - richard hamming, "mathematics on a distant planet"

"It is customary to begin courses in mathematical engineering by explaining that the lecturer would never trust his life to an aeroplane whose behaviour depended
on properties of the Lebesgue integral. It might, perhaps, be just as foolhardy to fly in an aeroplane designed by an engineer who believed that cookbook application of the Laplace transform revealed all that was to be known about its stability." - tom korner, fourier analysis

And Blind is explicitly for workplace discussion, whereas 4chan is just a random discussion website.

A useful analogy would be that one bar near your work that lots of your coworkers go to often, and end up talking about issues at work. That bar isn't officially affiliated with the company, and you don't have to ever go to said bar to nevertheless be affected by what transpires there. Except Blind has more to do with the workplace than said bar because a lot of people post to Blind from work.

> They don't have the massive overhead of the stores weighing them down.

Is grocery store overhead avoidable for Amazon? Amazon's biggest wins have come in places where carrying costs are not just large but easily reducible.

Books are heavy, bulky, and have extremely high product variety, so physical stores are large and require heavy curation. They're also stable, nonfragile, and open for artificially discounted consumer shipping via media mail. Amazon started there and won heavily because a warehouse in Omaha can win on variety and price nationwide.

Clothes are bulky and high-variety too, with different sizes adding 3x to 10x multipliers on product count. Physical clothing stores generally involve large spaces (fitting rooms, backroom with stock), heavy employee presence (reshelving, customer service), and high loss (theft, damage). Online sales suffer from the inability to try things on, but clothes are stable, relatively nonfragile, and lightweight. Amazon parlayed cheap shipping into generous return policies and avoided all the other overhead.

Large appliances are a similar story; highly varied, hard to stock, hard for consumers to take home, easy to store and ship in quantity.

But groceries? They come with huge carrying costs, definitely, and making grocery stores presentable is quite demanding. But many of those costs are inherent. Frozen goods need to stay frozen; lots of produce is too unappealing to sell; bulk produce (e.g. broccoli) stays moist, needs to be investigated for decay before it spreads, and requires steady turnover; delicate produce (e.g. herbs, greens) can't be stacked or treated roughly and turns over incredibly fast. Further, much of it has to be sourced and distributed fairly locally - and god help you if you let mislabeled or fraudulent products into your supply chain.

None of that dooms order-for-delivery groceries, but it means the pickers for those products will be going on-demand to a relatively local destination which looks relatively like an existing grocery store. There are efficiencies to be had like not needing prime "on the drive home" real estate and discarding checkout lanes, but it's nowhere near the same efficiencies as warehoused national distribution like clothing.

What sounds more likely to me is an increasing split into three different classes of food sale. Stable bulk goods reward the centralized model with cheap carrying costs, whether that's CostCo or Amazon, and can be sold on price above convenience. Staple perishables (milk, lettuce, apples, etc.) get sold on demand with localized distribution where possible - we already see farmer's markets staying in business but including not-actually-local goods like bananas. And speciality goods get sold by dedicated retailers both in person and online; spices and hotsauce are already better bought online, while exotic perishables are best found at boutique stores that don't try to compete with chains on staples. There's plenty of room in all that for Amazon and delivery groceries, but no obvious market dominance like we saw in other fields.

Here is a proven approach for at least the first part, building foundations and being ready for graduate work. Many Berkeley Ph.D. students passed through this route. Get the book "Berkeley Problems in Mathematics." It contains historical problems from the Berkeley math prelim exam, and solutions. Now don't look at any solutions yet.

This is the exam all Berkeley math Ph.D. students must pass within three semesters of arriving to stay in the program, and the fail rate is about 50%.

You will also need reference books, advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate textbooks. Buy, download, or borrow as appropriate.

Pick a problem (start with the older ones, they are easier). Set aside 30-60 mins and try to solve it. No devices, no references at all, go to a library or a coffee shop without your devices. Dont' give up till time is over. If you cannot (usually the case), still don't look at the answer. Hit the reference books (don't look up the problem online either, it will go right to the answer and you won't learn much). Read and try to understand enough so that you can solve the problem. It is ok if you solve it this way (in the course of reading about it).

For bonus points, students studying for the exam will typically take entire old exams (available from the Berkeley website), take that to the library and just sit down for three to six hours and try to solve all the problems correctly. Then self-grade harshly. When you can do that for a recent exam (and get a good score), you will have more or less mastered undergrad math to the point that you could teach it.

Most important: you have to struggle to solve problems. Reading a solution is about as useful as watching someone else lift weights: you get minor tips on form but not any stronger.

I could give you a list of books that are used at the graduate and undergraduate level that are considered good. However, almost none of them really discuss the motivations behind topics.

"Spoofing" caller ID is a feature, not a bug or hack. Pretty much all VoIP providers let you send a callerID name/number [1]. If they don't, it's because they've done extra work to explicitly block it. If you're using Asterisk, for example, setting the number is a simple command [2] before you call the dial command, and is trivial to script.

CallerID name is more complex [3], as some providers will pass it along and some won't, and the termination provider (the one that receives the call) may or may not accept it. However, many VoIP providers have a way to register CNAM entries, this just also isn't totally reliable due to the way CNAM database sharing works [4].

Take away is: CallerID name and number are ENTIRELY unreliable as a means of identification or authentication. In fact, the only thing it's really useful for these days is that you get a call from a number in your contact list, it probably really is that person because it's unlikely that (a) by random chance the spammer choose a number that is in your contacts, and (b) has compromised your contact list and is using it to choose caller ID numbers.

> TLA+ is a language that allows you to specify your system in any level of detail. As such, it is more expressive than any programming language is or could ever be.

I don't see that this necessarily follows? In most programming languages it's normal to have high level functions that describe your program in broad strokes and lower-level functions that describe your program in more detail. If you're talking about the ability to check aspects of program correctness without necessarily implementing an executable program, several languages support a technique of using "undefined" or similar to typecheck a "program" that can't actually run, or maybe can't even be built.

It's crazy because the knob for "how much debugging do I want to do" (aka iterator debug level) has been left untouched. Do you want the most rigorous checks (the default)? Don't do anything. Just want to avoid "variable optimized out" while debugging? Turn iterator debug level to "none".
