Reddit wants lots of growth (they are taking new money now I think) and that means lots of new users that don't know the old UI. The new one is designed with those users in mind, not ones that know the site inside and out already.

Doing this right now working for one of the big 5. Worked onsite for 4 years, now work from my farm full-time in rural NH. I couldn't possibly see us hiring a remote employee outright unless it was a contractor. The problem is not whether you'd be able to get the work done but it's that there are lots of things outside of daily deliverables that you need to be aware of and the only way to become aware of those things is to be on-site and develop tenure, relationships and camaraderie with the team. History counts for a lot in BigCo as projects come and go all the time.

One in three enterprises can’t protect themselves from data breaches
I’ve had a long unanswered question that I think about a lot: does design (fashion, architecture, app UI/UX) evolve or does it just change? Are the fashions we are wearing today better or simply different from 30 years ago? The fact that retro is cool seems to point to it being just different, versus better.

But I’m not really sure. A lot of architects almost have a morality about their designs: that a building shouldn’t cover up structural columns or engineering structures. That beauty is honesty, and adding extraneous stuff in the name of design isn’t honest, and in fact, immoral.

This is certainly different from the design of buildings 200 or 300 years ago, which often were excessive and baroque.

But it’s hard to say one is better than the other.

The people that buy luxury cars don't care. It'll be under warranty during this time and the dealer will offer a free loaner car while it is being repaired. Most of these cars are leased and the ones that aren't will likely be sold around the 3 year mark. There isn't much incentive for the manufacturers to make them reliable unlike with mass market cars.

Some can, the rest of the higher class people literally just drive Camrys, Accords, and Fusions because they need to be places just as much as the next guy.

I see this all the time. It is a symptom of blowhard UX designers who don't understand there's a difference between mass consumer and enterprise app design. They look at a shitty looking enterprise interface and snort "I can make this so much better! Let me introduce you to Material design!"

If you want to make pretty little apps that get you tons of likes on Dribbble or whatever, go make consumer apps.

When it comes to enterprise apps boring is beautiful. I'm talking dense data displays, esoteric shortcuts, NO optimistic saving behaviors, etc. Everything that classical consumer app designers hate. The point of an enterprise app is all business.

Lots of people have used deflationary currencies all through history, actually.

Also, your point is irrelevant.

If you want to use an inflationary currency, you should totally be free to do so.

I merely think that there are lots of other people who would prefer a deflationary one, and would accept both the pros and cons, and that they should be allowed that choice.

May the best currency win! If inflationary currencies are so awesome, then you have nothing to worry about ;).

Idk how the military ever expected to be able to use these satellites in wartime. First thing enemy will do is saturate them with fake signals from small and cheap battery-powered transmitters just left alone in random places (so targeting them with anti-radiation missiles would make little sense). Sounds like someone has been unbelievably dumb.

Most other languages have moved that sort of information into more shared container formats like Docker (and higher level container orchestrators like Kubernetes, etc). virtualenv has been a relatively poor, Python-specific Docker, and it is probably past time for the benefit of Python DevOps to retire virtualenv entirely for more general/shareable tools.
Automotive EE here.

In the last 5-8 years there has been a DRAMATIC change in the way vehicles are tested and released. Everyone has become much more focused on electronic features - while at the same time almost everyone is completely outsourcing electronics design and firmware. Cars hit the lots with 10 new flashes waiting. When I started, it was a BIG DEAL if you had a lot held up somewhere in Detroit because of a pending flash.

I've worked with two of the big three, and right now, neither own their traction control, radio, trans, body, ignition, steering, etc controllers. Basically anything. Even engines are being outsourced. I don't just mean the module, but the code on it. One of the mfgs, their engineers can't even SEE radio code or anything much more than general documents. They used to have compiler access to most things, now it's extremely rare.

The mfgs wanted to outsource the development, and now when they need an adjustment to traction control it's a $50, 100, 250, 500,000 charge, BUT, they've also moved the responsibility to the mfgs like Bosch, ConTevis, etc.

Short version is everyone is playing the game to get hot new electronics in cars, to make them seem as advanced as phones - but the work is not being put in besides surface level customer view. I've found obvious glitches in zero mile vehicles this year, but none I can think of from 2000-2013

I would not purchase a 2019 anything right now. I'd allow for two-three years worth of flashes before considering a new car. And that doesn't mean you're "safe" with your old car. You think your 2001 Subaru Outback is going strong? Well, surprise, you're likely to fall victim to a different issue.

As to the article, yes, luxury cars are worse. Most people that don't realize you can't leave your touring Ferarri in the garage not hooked up to a trickle charger, or also picking on Ferarri that the LaFerarri when runs battery dead may require to be loaded on a truck and shipped to a dealer before it'll charge again, or that the new Range Rovers will attempt to void your battery and electronics warranty if they find a radar/laser detector hooked up because THAT is how finicky the electronics system is.

It's funny to me the amount of work that your average Toyota or Chevy vehicle gets relative to lux models that skirt by with less engineering and more features.

As to Cadillac and Lexus, those are just GM and Toyota, all the same things plus some. So fundamentally they're the same, but yes, add features add problem areas.

>>>> Users absolutely hated the new system. Sure, the old system was ugly, but it had everything they needed, right at their fingertips!<<<<

I understand this but before agreeing to this, I think one should look at the issue of "change management". By default, people resist change. Once you get used to something, it is difficult to adapt to a new one (even if it is better). If the UI is "really bad", then it should definitely be changed but this should be done in tandem with change management (lots of training, slow cut-over to the new system, etc).

> putting a customer’s first and last name in the same field.

This can also present unexpected difficulties for people who's "first name" contains a space. It will appear as though that unified field contains their middle name too, which it might, but the customer might be using their middle name as a de facto part of their first name in systems such as on their credit card.
Too bad they didn't give an edgy name like "agile" or "scrum"...

That is a good question regardless.
“Benefits of the full-flow staged combustion cycle include turbines that run cooler and at lower pressure, due to increased mass flow, leading to a longer engine life and higher reliability.”

TL; DR Full flow lowers turbine temperatures at the expense of parts complexity. Given turbopumps are the devil’s ass part of rocketry, this has been a sought-after technology. The pay-off isn’t so much efficiency as much as longevity. (This also explains why full flow hasn’t been a priority for anyone until SpaceX.)

I haven't read the paper yet, but I plan on reading it tonight. It's so great that this came at a time where I've been researching Neurofeedback treatment, how Meditation effects certain brain activities, stoicism, and other mindfulness practices.

When I was younger I would have a lot of night terrors, sleep walking, you name it because of a stressful family situation. So I'm really interested to read about the studies, because I never thought about using my dreams to understand how my brain/thoughts are while awake.

I'm totally open to discussing this more with anyone that is interested!

I am at the same company for a year now and I want to stay for the rest of my career, a lot of people work here for their whole career and 30+ years isn't unheard of.

The company is one of the global leaders in its segment, treat their employees very well, pays very well (probably less than FAANG or your SF startup ;) ) and gives me a lot of autonomy and opportunities to practice leadership.

I don't see why I would want to change companies. I've worked in seven companies before this one (startups, big companies) and usually left around the 2y mark. This one hits all the check boxes (work environment, work/life balance, technical challenges, perks, good pay). I can certainly see why people stay here for a long long time.

It's because in almost all cases, all the damage comes from your brain sloshing around in the fluid inside your skull and ramming against the front of your skull when your skull suddenly stops moving, it doesn't have a lot to do with surface trauma to your skull from the impact itself or anything like that. Until we can wear a helmet that directly augments the connective tissues inside the skull, we won't be able to solve concussions with head protection outside the skull.
It should be obvious here that the domain is e.g. integral types on computers. The term is used in many places to denote collision-free quasi-randomization, which technically is a strict subset of perfect hash functions, and I chose it to align with that common usage.

>In an affidavit lodged with a court in Virginia, one of the witnesses said that Mr Prince "views himself as a Christian crusader tasked with eliminating Muslims and the Islamic faith from the globe." The statement continues

>To that end, Mr. Prince intentionally deployed to Iraq certain men who shared his vision of Christian supremacy, knowing and wanting these men to take every available opportunity to murder Iraqis. Many of these men used call signs based on the Knights of the Templar, the warriors who fought the Crusades.

>Mr. Prince operated his companies in a manner that encouraged and rewarded the destruction of Iraqi life. For example, Mr. Prince's executives would openly speak about going over to Iraq to "lay Hajiis out on cardboard." Going to Iraq to shoot and kill Iraqis was viewed as a sport or game. Mr. Prince's employees openly and consistently used racist and derogatory terms for Iraqis and other Arabs, such as "ragheads" or "hajiis."

The challenge with Enterprise software is that the people who pay for it are usually not the people who use it everyday or a lot. So the vendor takes feedback from the end-users but they still have to demo to the guys holding the purse strings and when those guys give feedback (usually different from that of the every day user), vendor has to go with feedback from the purse string holder. If the vendor doesn't do this, the project doesn't get approved.

I think the proper thing here is for the purse string holders to defer to the views/feedback of the every day users.

We try to solve things with pills, and certainly that is a very useful delivery mechanism for active medications. But there are a lot of fermented foods out there that have become unfamiliar in the Standard American Diet.

The current science is still unclear about which bacteria combo is important, in which proportions, in which part of the GI system. BUT we do know gut flora is important.

So my approach is to consume (in moderation but regularly) a variety of fermented foods that come from traditional cuisines. Yogurt with a wide variety of active cultures, Miso, Cheese from unpasteurised milk, Kimchi, etc.

Also raw vegetables will likely have traces of microbes from the soil they were grown in, though I have no idea what role those play, if any.

That might make for interesting project (individual or community). Photoshopping AR vignettes for peoples' various passions. Sort of speculative storyboarding and market exploration for future apps.

For a user with a passion for fashion, what might a nifty AR future expert experience look like? Heads-up tooling for where their head is at as they walk down the street. Collaborative tooling for their interactions with friends of similar interests, while walking and retrospectively. What about for software, or for startups?

The AR vignettes I've seen have been generic. Refrigerator contents, street navigation, business travel, etc[1]. Broadly accessible, but most of it mundane. Not targeted, not trying to inspire individuals with "O.M.G. Want future now.".
