Every time I see a headline about outrage over corporations not paying taxes, my first thought is, "How much taxes did employees pay?" It's not clear to me why a non-human should be paying taxes, when all of the humans working at that company pay a ton of taxes (especially the tech side of Amazon, where employees pay taxes on their high salaries and on their RSUs).

I'm definitely not an expert in corporate finance or taxes, so I would be grateful if somebody could explain to me why I should be outraged by this.

This, together with grades and the classes the student took, doesn't seem like it would be very anonymous?
I think it depends on how you use your keyboard.

As far as orthos go I went from Kinesis Advantage to Planck to JJ50 to 75Keys/XD75. I use a lot of keyboard shortcuts and the Planck didn't have enough keys for me. I think I could've made the JJ50 work but the extra keys on the 75Keys/XD75 are really nice to have. Typically people put them in the center and it's almost like having a split keyboard.

If you use a lot of keyboard shortcuts I would suggest starting big and working your way down.
What's broken is code that relies on long double offering more precision than double and expects to be portable. That's not guaranteed by the standard and isn't going to be true on all architectures.
> wage garnishment

Exactly, it just becomes a deferred tax. There are also laws that cap how much a person's wages can get taken specifically with student loans. It maxes out at around 10%.

Again, I do not agree with it. But to pretend the sky is falling is false. That's also why, as you've noticed, laws have been adjusted in the wake of the abuses of the for profit university industry. As well as accreditation crack down on the organizations that accredited these for profit universities.

I'm not saying it's right or just. I'm only saying it's intentional and not some giant debt bomb surprise that the government is not expecting.

It's just kind of how the US tries to do things. By having loans they are trying to apply market forces. The idea is that students will do a better job as a whole deciding what schools and programs continue. And again again, I'm not saying I agree. Just relaying that there is an actual design behind it.
WOW, thanks for that. Strange though since I just received confirmation from Seller Central Support saying it was fine to do so. Here is the reply.

Greeting from Amazon Seller Support,

Thanks for contacting us and I will surely assist you with your issue!

I understand that you would like to know whether direct scraping of web pages is allowed and you would like to know this since some of the sellers are selling their apps through direct scraping of data. I really agree with your query and I will surely assist you with your issue!

I would like to inform you that yes, you can very well perform direct scraping of data from Amazon web pages. Further there will be no issues in scraping of data and it is allowed to do. If you are using Amazon web services it is added advantage and then you can web scrap using it. Further, I would like to inform you that there are many third party software are APIs available on google which you can use to scrap the data.

You can enroll and access more details through the below link regarding Amazon web services:-

There is limited space in New York. Amazon would have taken up more space and given less tax output. The offshoot businesses have even more limited space. Why would New York give away so much?

If they decided downtown Buffalo is the hq the state should have thrown money at them because that would change the area and provided space for many offshoot businesses. Win-Win
I think the article linked in the posted one does a better job explaining what's "news" about this:

https://newfoodeconomy.org/bpi-pink-slime-ground-beef-usda-r...

>
Since 1994, the government’s stance has been clear. Lean finely textured beef (LFTB) has been a “qualified component” of hamburger, meaning it can be included in ground beef without being independently disclosed. But it could not itself be called ground beef, suggesting that, in the eyes of regulators it was something else—a padding or additive, but not the real deal.

...

> That effort culminated in 2018, when BPI, citing advancements to its process, formally asked FSIS to consider whether its product might just be called “ground beef.”

> “It was an extensive review that took well over six months and included consumer reviews, nutritional panels, tours of the plant where agency folks could get a first-hand look at the process and understand what we are doing at BPI,” Nick Ross, BPI’s vice president of engineering, told Beef Magazine, a trade publication that covers the cattle industry.

Moderately high personal wealth does not translate into having nice public spaces as well.

No amount of personal wealth makes a Texas suburb walkable. No amount of personal wealth makes it possible to skateboard on Tokyo sidewalks. No amount of personal wealth makes the downtown park you live next to actually be nice.

Beyond that, most places in SEA have caught on and if you have money, the society around you will figure out how to charge you enough to get it from you, especially if you're used to a pretty high standard of living
I can attest to this. Being on your own clock is still stressful in some ways, but compared to a standard work week - not even close.
No, in that C doesn't have the pattern-action style of awk:

/<pattern>/ { <action> }

"For every line which matches <pattern> perform <action> " is the fundamental flow of awk programs. It's procedural but the iteration is hidden; it's almost like each stanza is a callback which gets executed when the pattern fires. I'm kinda surprised no "real language" has adopted this design for an API.
Spinach has oxalic acid that can lead to fragile bones. I wouldn't suggest to eat a lot of it (specially if you are a pregnant woman), unless you take countermeasures to assure a correct calcium intake.
Why is this supposed to upset me? If we're going to keep eating animals (and that sure is my plan), we shouldn't give ourselves the luxury of getting squicked out over using the whole animal.

If you're picky about what's in your ground beef, find a butcher you trust, or grind your own.
The article/directive specifically called out DNS account passwords on DNS hosting providers. If they were using support tickets and manually implemented changes by hand then there would not be an account. With no account for a control panel you don't have any risk that the email and password gets dumped on pastebin. In the directive it even speaks about password managers, which again implies that the issue they are talking about are DNS control panels like the one at Route53, likely with reused password, and not bespoke systems.

For high priority domain names I would go so far and recommend against having a DNS control panel accounts on things like Route53. It has access control management but unless the department has the experience and skills it will likely end up with a single account that has full access with little oversight when something goes wrong. Those departments are likely better served going through a domain management company that handles all the security and manage who can request changes and how. If they have the experience and skills then managing it fully themselves can be a better option, but then what they really need is a registrar which allows for DNSSEC keys to be forwarded (with for example a cds record).
I always forget that when the subject is not political that you can somewhat rely on them, but thanks anyways for the alternate source.

I use trimmings from deer and elk meat that I harvest and butcher myself and grind into ground meat. Only difference is those animals are much leaner with little fat and I don’t use a centrifuge with ammonia. If you like burgers and such, I highly recommend grinding your own chuck or nicer cuts of beef.

My intention in mentioning the carbohydrates lost when cooked was more meant to suggest other nutrients are also likely intact when consuming the meat raw.

The classical Inuit diet is more unique than just being meat-based, it's also mostly raw. This detail is often overlooked by those using the Inuit diet as proof for some dietary argument.

Opening the file and parsing JSON in it is two lines of code in Python.

For what it's worth, I use an Ultimate Hacking Keyboard (UHK, https://ultimatehackingkeyboard.com) and I really, really like it (have been using it for about 6 months now). I do not like the "ortho" keyboards, and I definitely need my keyboard to be split in the middle.

What I love about the UHK is the programmability: I can make the keyboard do lots of things, which makes switching between OSs much easier. The UHK makes heavy use of the "layer" concept.
Oral History of Blaine Garst Part 1 [video]
But what about meat glue???
I'm not saying the claims aren't plausible, but it sounds like this could be p-hacking? "No other factor the researchers analyzed showed a statistically significant difference among classes—not the instructors' experience, tenure status, gender, specific department, or even ethnicity."
It's support for video codecs is pretty limited, and has been for a long time, but I think you're right about most of the other things being very new "standards".
I guess people are worried about uneducated and poor who don't or can't think about the difference. For example, where fast food chains previously might be unhealthy but still OK, this might tip the scales closer towards not OK. If you're knowledgeable enough to make an informed decision and also can afford to take the time to grind your own meat, people probably aren't worried about you.

The System’s Neatest Trick [pdf]
I have the UHK, I really like it (it is so far the best keyboard I've used). I could make use of another row of keys, but they chose to minimize size, which makes the keyboard nicely portable (especially if you put the two halves together back-to-back).

A big part of the appeal of the UHK is the agent, which lets you configure the keyboard any way you want. Not all keyboards let you do this, so it's often an apples to oranges comparison.

Ah! I see what you mean. It reminds me of https://github.com/airbnb/hypernova
To summarize the achievements:

* Attention is all you need transformer created a non recurrent architecture for NMT (https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762)

* OpenAI GPT modified the original transformer by changing architectutre (one net instead of encoder/decoder pair), and using different hyperparameters which seems to work the best (https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/openai-assets/research-co...)

* BERT used GPT's architecture but trained in a different way. Instead of training a language model, they forced the model predict holes in a text and predicting whether two sentences go one after another. (https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.04805)

* OpenAI GPT2 achieved a new state of the art in language models (https://d4mucfpksywv.cloudfront.net/better-language-models/l...)

* The paper in the top post found out that if we fine tune several models in the same way as in BERT, we get improvement in each of the fine tuned models.
I'm surprised quartz was willing to call it pink slime in the headline. That cost Disney/ABC a lot of money.

ABC didn't coin the term, incidentally. It was coined by a regulator at the FDA some years earlier.
should be noted that ABC had to settle with the company behind "pink slime" and paid $177 million out of pocket, with their insurers paying a larger amount as well[1]

Trail runner comes forward: How I killed that mountain lion
As others mention here and there in the comments: you can get a 3-day weekend at many tech jobs. It's just a matter of asking, and asking in the right way.

E.g. this guy I interviewed has been working 4 days a week for 15 years: https://codewithoutrules.com/2018/01/08/part-time-programmer...

I've personally not worked 40 hour weeks since 2012, because, too much stuff to do, especially with a family.

If you don't have negotiation experience, well, I started out a terrible negotiator and eventually figured out how, so you can too. And if you'd like to skip over all the mistakes and research I did and just know what it takes to negotiate a shorter workweek as a programmer, I've written a book that can help you: https://codewithoutrules.com/3dayweekend/

Nice. I wrote txeh because the lib I was using for kubefwd (a Kubernetes port forward utility) was a little too opinionated about the format and use of /etc/hosts. A few of libs I looked at really wanted to take over the file.

I built the CLI because I needed a fast way to remove CIDR ranges (ie 172.27.1.0/24, etc..) when 100's of IPs get added and then no longer needed.
I solved most of this for myself purely by relocating closer to work. If you have an hour commute (hour to, hour from), that's 40 hours/month sitting in traffic being unproductive. That's an entire 3 months worth of full-time work in a year. Just eliminating a long commute gives you back a lot of time during the regular week that's currently being completely wasted. Now I mostly just work remotely.

I didn't write about libsodium. I wrote about tools I can actually use to access my data — while writing my own utilities to decode my stuff is fun, it is not necessarily how I choose to spend my time. And the fact that something was written by HN celebrities doesn't change much — being revered in HN circles is not necessarily indicative of real-life performance and certainly not of software longevity :-)

> Is there a good way to abstract testing away from educators so they can focus on teaching? Isn't that the way it should be done?

Ideally I think this should be done at a high level -- i.e. separating the institutions that do the teaching from those that do the testing and award the credentials.

More practically in the short term, it would be great if teaching and grading were separated and allocated to different staff members. (Preferably with a proper firewall between them, to guard against politics and favour-trading.) There are just too many conflicts of interest and emotional pressures involved. This separation may also increase the likelihood that grading would be taken seriously, with markers given enough time and incentive to do the job properly.
Most of the nutrients in mushrooms are behind a cell wall of chitin, which is a fibrous substance consisting of polysaccharides and forming the major constituent in the exoskeleton of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi.

PSA: your grocery store butcher will grind up a steak of your choosing for you at no cost, you only need to ask.

I didn't know people bought pre-ground beef until moving out of my parents' home. Growing up, whenever we went shopping, my mother would start at the meat department, pick out a cheap steak, and ask the butcher to grind it up. We'd return for it later before heading to the cashier. I thought this was the standard operating procedure, as well as eating home-cooked hamburgers bloody rare.
Interesting. Yeah I've never used the regional bolete rules-of-thumb (not red/orange pored, not fast blueing, not B. huronensis) to decide whether or not to eat something.

The "pink slime" story is mostly fake news. ABC News coined the term, and later paid $177 million to settle a lawsuit over it. It was the largest defamation settlement in the history of the United States.

The story took on a life of its own, though. This image[1] became synonymous with "pink slime" (and still appears in a Google image search for the term) even though nobody knows where the image came from. Didn't stop The Young Turks (among others) from associating it with McDonalds, though.

GCT and NYP werent built for the civic enjoyment of the plebs out of the kindness of Vanderbelt et al. Quite the opposite in fact. They were built so that the railroad and its rich clients could show off just how far above the plebs they really are. They built monuments to themselves greater than any church built to god.

Are these articles a bit misleading about the "trimmings"? My understanding is that a large part of the controversy is because its not little pieces of "meat" its basically the garbage, tendons, pieces of skin, bits of bone, etc. Sure some of it has meat attached, but the difficulty separating the meat bits from the rest is what requires the intensive liquefaction process. The fact that it happens to liquefy some of the normally inedible parts as well is just a bonus.
