The TV insurance thing is effectively a scam. Your home insurance likely covers accidental damage, and your consumer rights cover any breakdown in that sort of time (depending on where you live).

A lot of that info was traditionally included in CVs in Spain (dob, phone# and address, citizenship, marital status and even driver permit situation, and a photo). These days it is increasingly rarer, and if a company asks it for a tech position it would definitely be a big red flag.

But, IBAN and copy of your passport, in a CV??? I can't believe it is not an outright scam.

Steer clear either way.

A Fundamentally Illegitimate Choice:Zuboff on the Age of Surveillance Capitalism
I have direct experience with building and selling a low density product in the US and found I could substantially undercut Chinese offerings on price because domestic shipping costs were so much cheaper.
So what's the point of the APK?
A minority almost always refers to a group that comprises less than half of the population, so I think the label was apt.
I think, sometimes, people at the top forget that there are a lot of talented people who got the company where it is today. THey believe they can reorganize however they want and it will turn out well, but ultimately you have to keep attracting top talent and motivating them. It is harder for tech people to get motivated about ad sales than about cool tech (heck, that's why a lot of startups are terrible at sales). It may be their main revenue source and source of growth, but it probably doesn't fire up the imagination as much as what they used to do.

Edit: Although, I do believe they still do a lot of cool things, and that is a strong point, but it seems ... different than before.
Again and again I see the comments of how crazy it is that we allow violence in films/TV/anywhere, but not sex which is peaceful and harmless -- as if this were some kind of idiocy or hypocrisy.

There's a good reason we try to draw lines between areas where sex is "allowed" and "not allowed" -- because it's arousing and has the potential to be greatly embarrassing. It's private, in a way that violence isn't. I seriously don't get how so many people seem to willfully ignore this.

When I Google something in a meeting or in front of my mother, I do not want sexual results to appear because some term has an alternate meaning. When I watch a movie with my parents, nobody's going to squirm from the violence, but we certainly don't want to watch a steamy sex scene together. That's just how human beings are wired. We're not prudes, there's just a time and a place.

So having major internet services like Google and Facebook default to being non-sexual seems like a pretty smart move to me. And then there are still countless sites on the internet devoted entirely to sex. Keeping them largely separated seems smart. And while what happened to Tumblr was very sad, I'm sure other sites will replace it... it's the internet after all.
I think that the core of the issue lies in their certification style: simple multiple-choices question, with many of them certifying that you understood that you should use the branded product (example: Amazon RDS instead of managing your own posters cluster in the cloud -- which might best suit your use case).

So you're tested on your understanding of the platform but not on your actual competences on it.

I've seen this in other areas however: people getting LPIC certifications and failing to run a proper grep.

In my experience, Red Hat is one of the few tech companies that get the certification program right by using an hands-on approach: either you actually are capable of performing tasks at a certain level, or you get not certification at all.

There are many professionals certified on AWS that aren't really able to perform properly on that platform, for example. Add the fact that plain old system administration I'd dying (less and less needed with the cloud and things like ansible)... And here we are.
Your response is exactly the right kind for an interview.

"I don't use those AWS services, but let me tell you what I have used". I agree, most people won't know one of: Sumarian or Sagemaker, but chances are you can easily know most features that matter for your job interests. Most new AWS services over the last few years are niche markets. A good company to work for would not expect you to know this stuff without experience. I personally don't expect someone without certifications to answer AWS questions, so it's always a plus when they can. But if they have certifications and can't answer any questions? That's a big red X. I can't speak for everyone, buy I usually have 2-3 different questions on different areas, and if you're certified and have used AWS, you should be able to get 2 of them.

Ex: what is the difference between EC2 server types M, R, and C.. my previous lambda question, and usually a question on ECS or CloudFront
This is identity theft. If it were real they wouldn't need your passport, date of birth or IBAN until they'd already hired you.
Can a company ask for this info? Yes they can ask for almost anything they want to. What would stop them asking? If you don't want to give them the information then don't.
I’m Dutch. All of the requested data are legal to request as an employer in the Netherlands. Asking for an IBAN number (which is not considered “secret” btw) up front is a bit much though. You would only need that in case you are hired and they need too send the salary somewhere.

Industrial Engineering Studies to Save Time at Home
Unfortunately this is the circle of life in high cost living areas. The NYC area has been expensive for a long period of time. SF now has become even more expensive and this phenomenon is newer to the area than NYC. The people I grew up with had the following outcomes:

* Got a high paying job and stayed (not many)

* Tried to make it here, but ended up moving to NC or FL

* Work lower paying jobs dual income and struggle

* Got a job in the area they went to university

SF was not super expensive 10-15 years ago. I mean it was not like living in a Midwest city but you could still get by on a reasonable income.

Central Fl and many areas in NC have a large amount of New Yorkers. This trend is going to accelerate as top tier cities become more popular and affluent, and costs will spiral. Unfortunately cities like Orlando that take in a lot of fleeing New Yorkers do not build the same density and downtowns as older cities so it is less likely that they will become as desirable for higher paying jobs. They are more suburban in nature and are car dependent.

What needs to be done is to make high density cities from the start somewhere else. Make a high speed rail link from SF to some area outside and start new with affordable high density in mind. Then people will initially commute to SF but the new area can then flourish. Otherwise old high density cities will continue to explode in popularity with post 1950s sprawl cities taking in mid income people.
Then again that bit about the Roma is somewhat accurate.

On the other hand majority of the Roma refuse to assimilate, and on a much deeper level than pretty much any immigrant at that, so it's possible to imagine why this prejudice lives on.

"Poorly-designed" seems to be the sort of thing that is incredibly subjective, and often declared with little objective truth. Even this stage light ribbon thing -- does anyone have any empirical numbers showing it's an actual problem? An anecdote is not data, and for any large scale manufacturing they generally test it for some huge number of activations/swings/opens/whatever before going with a design.

I don't want to be an Apple apologist -- their current laptops, one of which I purchased one week ago well into this stage light fiasco, are grossly overpriced (and AppleCare+ basically seems mandatory, so that was another $400 on my bill) and I wish they were more upgradable, but at the same time as much as we bemoan non-upgradability in practice extraordinarily few ever upgrade anything. At all. They just get their next laptop.

That's completely a cultural artifact though, there's no reason to be squeamish about sex and to accept violence.

These two statements seem to conflict a bit. Anybody else think so?

> are flooding their home, driving up rents, installing yoga studios, polluting the local vibe with new technology, and generally making everything suck while sipping kale juice.

> These people want to be artists, teachers, blacksmiths, therapists, mechanics, and musicians. They want to have children, open bakeries, own a house ...they aren't techies; they had the audacity to want something besides tech.

Are the people who left California and who apparently are driving up rents and sipping kale juice in wherever they ended up artists, mechanics, musicians, and blacksmiths? California rents have gone up apparently because technology companies pay workers enough they can afford $3000/mo rents for an apartment. Is the effect of an influx of bakers, musicians, artists (who I'm assuming probably can't afford high rents) sufficient to inflate rents enough to complain about? I would have said the "californians" people complain about are employed by technology companies (or other high paying companies).
My goal and marching orders are to use AWS managed services for anything possible. We (the CxOs and myself) agreed that out of all of the business risks we had, our dependence on AWS is the least of them.

For builds we are completely serviceless. We use CodeBuild with mostly the prebuilt Docker images and one custom image to build some .Net Framework code. We use CodePipeline to deploy lambdas with CloudFormation and Code Deploy agents for EC2 instances.

For any new work, we have to justify a need for servers instead of using lambda for both APIs and back end ETL work loads - with step functions. There are a few back end workloads that we will need to transistion to Docker eventually but even then we are looking to use Fargate.

Both your statements are just incorrect. The articles are reporting on efforts in coal mining towns to actually teach unemployed blue collar workers how to code. None of these articles were prescriptive, they were all describing events taking place.

These articles did not say, "Hey why don't these guys just learn to code." The articles say, "Hey, there is an effort on the ground to teach unemployed blue collar workers some technical skills. Will this work, we don't know yet. But it interesting and worth reporting on."

The other comment is clearly a misreading of what I wrote. I never said journalists have killed themselves from this harassment. I said the goal of this harassment was to make the journalists lives so miserable that they want to kill themselves. Feel free to take a trip in to /pol/ and check for yourself what the sentiment is but here are a couple quotes from the articles I linked that demonstrate that.

“I’m not ready to declare victory until these maggots are killing themselves with a live stream”

"Making them a hero is goal anon :)"

Please quit pretending like this is some harmless game. Be bold and take a real stand. This isn't about teaching journalists a lesson for being flippant about the problems of blue-collar workers.

If it were, why are they targeting journalists who didn't write articles about coal miners learning to code.

And furthermore, why does this rest on easily disprovable claim that the articles were somehow prescriptive in nature, and not simply reporting on experiments underway in some of these communities?

For example, Taila Lavin, the author of the New Republic article never wrote anything about miners or any other blue collar workers learning to code. If this was about punishing people who were dismissive of blue collar workers, why target her? Clearly that's not the goal. The goal is to target journalists as a group, regardless of what they have written.

If you believe journalism is not a worthwhile profession, and people who write things that don't align with your personal belief system should just shut up or face harassment, why don't you just come out an say it? Why hide behind code words like this?
Aye. Although essentially all of my UK friends are relaxed about Muslims, one of those friends stopped believing in Christians[1] because his local church congregation prayed for God to burn down a new mosque.

And anti-Gypsy sentiment is so socially normal in the UK that I have only ever witnessed (in person) two people defending them as ‘not a problem’.

Those are cultural differences, not genetic ones (for the most part). I think that’s quite a difference as one can adapt over the time span of a couple of generations (or even immediately by strong willed individuals) while race is much more sticky and impossible to shake once you’re born into it.

Case in point, when a Roma family settles down, they can in theory just be another Eastern European family to those who don’t know their background. 28 years since the Berlin wall fell, Western European people are now pretty much used to mingling with Eastern Europeans. It’s the hardcore differences in lifestyle that makes a lot of people afraid of others, and those can change - e.g. see the integration of immigrants from Kosovo. I don’t think Syrians who stay will have a much different fate 20y from now.
Do you have any stats on the wealth distribution of people leaving California? This really is a situation where more demographic information would be helpful, since an average wouldn't tell you as much. Do the wealthy Californians tend to be old, retirees? Young with kids? Are half the Californians leaving well off, with other half largely penniless?

Your assertion that "when Californians leave, they leave wealthy" may be true, but I would like to see it substantiated with some kind of cite.

Having grown up in SF (I'm in my late 40s), I have, by this point, seen a lot of people leave (and arrive), and they run the gamut.

I know a couple with two small kids who did what everyone in Portland fears most - they bought in SF during the housing bust, sold recently, collected 800k or so, and now own a house outright in Portland.

I know a woman who grew up in Palo Alto in the 1970s and works as a documentary film maker. She left for Denver with nothing but the savings that can get you through a few months.

Lots more, and they're anecdotes, but it's enough to make me suspect that "when Californians leave, they leave wealthy" isn't true often enough to make it a generally accurate statement, even if it does describe a substantial number of these cases.
If you mean the Catholic Church, that is incorrect. That teaching is that sex is good, sex is not a sin by itself, but must happen in the correct context of a mutually consenting married couple and must be ‘open to conception’ (i.e. no artificial changes to the procreative ‘mechanisms’, such as condoms or birth control.) They even teach ‘Natural Family Planning’, which is basically how to enjoy sex in rhythm with woman’s fertility cycle so as to ‘naturally’ avoid conception.

Not practicing Catholic anymore but that’s what I was taught from the Catechism et al several years ago as a convert.
Event-driven investments, inflection points and how I made 3263.64% in a month
Every major Christian church teaches that enjoying sex outside of marriage is a sin and furthermore teach that it's sinful to direct your sexual desire toward anyone (or anything) other than your husband or wife.

They shame the expression and even the feeling of sexual desire that doesn't fall within those bounds, teaching that the sex drive is something to be "controlled" or completely squelched until/unless you're able to express it within the bounds of marriage.
The older generations were the first freed by birth control to have more sex, and their rebellion against the established sexual norms (and their parents) is part of what defined them.

Today’s young Germans are growing up in a culture that accepts non-marital sexual relations, there is nothing to rebel against so it is not such a defining dimension of their culture.

Furthermore, you could also posit that some of the young people see how the “swinging” lifestyle affected their families. Might have worked out great for a lot of people but probably really hurt some others.

I have one swinging uncle who happily swapped wives in the 1980s, but other members of my family just ended up bitter and alone over similar circumstances.

Then you look at your grandparents or great grandparents who were miserable, but at least they were miserable together and always had each other :-)
This is my point though -- European racism is portrayed always somehow "different". It's the exact same story and there are no excuses for it. Anti-Roma prejudice is no more rational or justified than any other prejudice, and it's just as violent and dangerous.

Most Christians fail to live up to their own theology, however the thing itself is beautiful. In Catholic terms, lust is precisely the desire to have or use the other apart from love.
In theological terms an 'evil' is always a privation -- a lack of good and in this case a lack of love. It is a reduction or removal of some vital piece.
Just as a healthy garden has many necessary parts: soil, light, water, protection, seed, etc. healthy sex should have all of the following: Love, stability (via Marriage), openness to the possibility of creating life, be unitive psychologically and spiritually, desire the good of the other above self, pleasure, and a sacred character.
Lust undoes most of that leaving only pleasure intact. Lust is about taking. Love is about giving. Appetite placed above the good of the other is disordered (ie: an improper ordering of priorities).
