Well, other than the fact that Facebook lied about the number.

The reason Facebook tried to initially downplay the number indicates that even they thought this was an issue so I’m not sure why you think this is manufactured outrage.

Our family was moving in two months due to my wife's job. I told my boss we were moving out of state and asked if I could work remote. Since I'm a developer, he said yes, even though we are a no remote worker company. I had been working at the company for about 2 years and I believe he said yes due to my punctuality, work ethic, and projects I was already lead on.

There were/are so drawbacks that I should mention.

-I didn't get a raise that year because he wanted to make sure this remote thing was going to work.

-Everyone in the office gets free lunch every Friday but me since I am remote.

-I miss out on every company team building event

-I miss out on the company big Christmas party

I could go to the company events, but I would have to pay for my own flight and hotel. So I don't see myself going.

-I often feel disconnected with the company and only know a handful of remaining employees that still work there when I was in the office

So there are downsides to bring the only remote employee. But I have an amazing schedule and don't have to travel. This works out perfectly with dealing with 2 kids and daycare.

Btw, the raises come almost every year now and are decent. I am very content in my current situation.

So my advice is to keep your head down, come to work early, stay late and get some good experience at your current job. My boss is a big time micro manager that said yes.
In Johannesburg, South Africa, where crime is high, privately run street cams are popping up to deter neighborhood crime. I'm not sure how effective they are.

I wonder how the IRC bridge works with regards to threading.

Does it merge multiple consecutive messages from a single user into a single Zulip message?

Are all replies from a channel just a never ending thread that goes on and on forever?

I might have to try it to find out.
Isn’t it a bad idea to use the same account for work as well as personal projects?

Currently I have a separate ‘home’ account for personal projects and I never touch the work ID from my home.
My experience in the 2000 bust was that there were too many programmers. The market was flooded with dead weight who should have been in sales or management or baristas, but there just happened to be roles to fill.

Thank you for the feedback! We agree. Need to get some semi-professional headshots and approval from our on-staff CPA first, but it's on the shortlist.

I'm curious, why the hard stance on granting purchase data?

I suppose there are two types of people: those who would consider it fine if a night light is on continuously all night, and those who would not.

I'm firmly in the second category. I want my room to be as dark as possible while I'm sleeping. I don't have a night light right now, but if I did, I would get something that errs on the side of not being lit. For example, a motion-activated one.

If that is what this dim by default behavior is intended to accomplish, then it sounds like a wonderful idea to me. A night light is a hard sell for me in the first place, but this is the sort of thing that might convince me to consider it.
There is a solution for this. PM me.
LendKey | New York or Ohio (Cincinnati) | Full-time | ONSITE | $70k - $150k+ | Software Engineer/Senior Engineer/Lead Software Engineer, Platform Engineer, Associate Product Manager/Product Manager | https://www.lendkey.com/

Come help us build the next generation Lending as a Service platform. We're in an exciting transition phase where we need some key people to push our platform into a new and more extensible direction.
LendKey is a growth-stage lending technology firm that partners with credit unions and community banks to allow them to offer some of the most borrower-friendly loans in the industry (mostly in student loan / student loan re-fi space). LendKey enables these community financial institutions to bring loans to consumers online, making the end-to-end lending process easy & simple for both borrowers and lenders. Because we're growth stage (founded in 2009, Series C) the team has the advantage of being at a stable company but still have elements of a start-up (115 employees currently). Also just named in American Banker’s ‘Best FinTechs to Work For’ based on employee feedback reflecting our culture.

What we offer:

• Competitive Salary

• Stock options

• Unlimited Vacation Policy

• Flexible work environment

• Startup culture

• Employee events/activities

• Good benefits

We're looking for top tech talent in software, platform, and product areas. What we're seeking in all of these roles:
Team-members who are open to learning new technologies. Brave enough to implement solutions to challenging problems. Can be hands-on but also strategic. Willing to speak your mind but kind to others when doing it. For product roles ideally consumer-facing experience, bonus for strong technical skills.

We're Ruby on Rails, Linux, Docker/k8s, and adding Java and Go. We're building microservices on AWS with kubernetes, and are actively pushing towards automated deployments all the way to production.

I'm a technical lead and will answer any questions I can. Shoot me an email at tony (dot) baron at-sign lendkey.com with resume or questions! Don't quite fit and things sound interesting? Let's see if we can work something out, anyway.

- All of us work from home on Fridays!

Who's "we" and why would they worry? I'm struggling to think of a side-effect of AWS going down that would worry me more than being unable to get a Lyft (which itself doesn't worry me very much).

Unlike the Earth, the Moon rotates very slowly - once every 27 days. It's equator is not fast-moving - it is moving at only 4 m/s. This delta-v gain is nearly negligible.

The free-return trajectory, where you keep the command module's orbit in the same plane as the Moon's orbit around the Earth is more important (Since both the Moon, and the command module orbits at ~1,000 m/s - which is the delta-v that you gain, if you eject from lunar orbit, in the opposite direction to the Moon's direction of travel.)
> The Constitution has yet to be amended to reflect significant modern shifts

That doesn't excuse ignoring it, though the CIA generally did. Doesn't make that an acceptable policy, I can't imagine anyone proposing so for other aspects of the Constitution.

> I certainly don't want to declare war on a nuclear superpower foe.

But the current actions are the worst of both Worlds; not officially declaring war, yet waging war. Like throwing rocks at the hornets' nest whilst ducking behind a wall. When the hornets find you they'll sting just as hard.

If something is worth risking war for, then declare war. If it's not worth nuclear annhiliation then ... get on with boring old spying.

I'm fairly certain he doesn't want to be involved in politics. He at least mentioned he will not run for president.
If you ever have a low moment, worrying about about the marketability of the skills you have developed in your side interests, you can always think of these people that think it's a good use of their time to learn how to develop a Nintendo Game Boy emulator in Sed.
>> doesn't have access to the same tools and procedures as USCC does

If she's well connected, she does have access to almost everything that's available, short of something that offers no plausible deniablity because it's custom made for a particular system, like Stuxnet, or something that's full of zero days nobody else knows about yet. And the only thing you can conclude in these two cases is that you're _probably_ dealing with a state-level attacker, but you can't say which state unless there's something to further narrow things down, such as unfettered access to controlled nuclear technology in the case of Stuxnet.

Notice also how we are always expected to accept these reports on faith, and no _verifiable_ evidence is ever presented.
True, but it started as a high speed/high altitude stall and ended because of poor pilot choices.

It was in and out of the coffin corner before the pilots realized what was happening.
> slowly turn into a datacenter company

That didn't turn out very bad for amazon

And frankly i 'd rather invest in a cloud company than a money-losing taxi company.
"Most wacky ideas never lead to anything. A lot of wacky ideas seem like sure bets in hindsight."

I was just reading how a French inventor offered one of the first submarines in existence as a gift to Napoleon. He refused it.

Imagine if France had instead started massively supporting submarine research and development instead. They could have had a couple of hundred year lead on the rest of the world in submarines and perhaps dominated the seas from then on.

Of course, even then it wouldn't have been so simple, as there'd likely be technology theft and simple inspiration by others that would make their lead not so great. But the potential to make a great difference was there and it was squandered by an otherwise extraordinary leader.
Everything in Python is implemented as a dict behind the scenes, which is implemented in C with a few different types. Python does have arrays in the standard library's array module, so yes saying python doesn't have arrays would be a lie.
But they did lose out. You're confusing a comment about relativities for a comment about absolutes.

No one is saying they're not going to be well off, or that it wasn't a worthwhile use of their time to build the company. They're just saying the return is smaller than it could have been. Your "objective outside measure" isn't enlightening in that sense, because the point is specifically about relative measures.

Responding to a discussion about funding dilution by saying, "well they're well off anyway!" is kind of odd, because that's not really relevant. Dilution also materially impacts non-founding employees, and small changes in dilution could have outsized impacts on their returns.

It's also comparable to negotiating with a company who tells you that you're still getting a lot of money "by any objective measure" even if they won't meet your ask, because their offer is higher than the median wage for your locale. Yeah, sure, but that's a pretty empty observation isn't it?
I've been told it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Most of my contact with "Idea Guys" was when I would attend hackathons. Without fail, about half the people there would be marketers or business people that would have an idea, and offer to write up the business proposal for the hackathon project, but offer nothing in the way of actually building stuff. When I would work at hackathons I got pretty good at identifying these people and ensuring that prizes went to the people who _actually_ did work past the first 20 minutes of ideation.

Just repeating "building nuclear is much cheaper" doesn't make it so. Nuclear is safe. It has some very admirable technical qualities. But it's difficult to find examples of reactors built quickly and at low cost any more[1]. South Korean reactors built in South Korea seem to be the last good example.

South Korean reactors in UAE are behind schedule. China takes 6 years to build reactors in China and their costs aren't very transparent due to opaque government and censored press. Russia takes even longer to build reactors in Russia and abroad. India takes a decade+ to finish a reactor. France can't build their new reactors swiftly or affordably, either in Finland or in France. We all know how Westinghouse's AP1000 has fared in South Carolina, Georgia, and China.

Ontario experienced drastic cost overruns building the Darlington reactors in the first place and rejected new Darlington reactors a decade ago because the projected costs were too high.

The Ontario government put its nuclear power plans on hold last month because the bid from Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., the only "compliant" one received, was more than three times higher than what the province expected to pay, the Star has learned.

Sources close to the bidding, one involved directly in one of the bids, said that adding two next-generation Candu reactors at Darlington generating station would have cost around $26 billion.

https://www.thestar.com/business/2009/07/14/26b_cost_killed_...

I have some hopes that small modular reactors will eventually break out of the rut of disappointment that recent Western reactor projects have furrowed. I'm not trusting anybody's cost/schedule estimates until some SMR projects are actually in commercial operation.

Finally, if NIMBY is a legitimate obstacle to renewable projects, it's also a legitimate obstacle to nuclear projects. (I think that NIMBY is not a good reason to block either renewable facilities or nuclear plants, but I'm not King of Earth.)

[1] You might think that requiring swift completion on top of affordability is excessive, but my view is that Western projects that aren't fast will become expensive as well. Even projects that never get within earshot of the NRC, like building transmission lines or refurbishing bridges, are very predictably expensive if they stretch beyond 5 years.

I make a distinction between accepting what's out of one's control (in it's immediacy) and dealing with injustice or undesirable situations. Such that, I don't accept bullshit. But shit happens. I've found this is a relatively low-stress approach. My vehicle was hit in a parking lot, with no information left and no camera capture - the appropriate response for me is "whatever". Had I caught the person in action though, I would have pursued it to the extent I could, as a matter of course.

We use Zulip for xi-editor and related projects, and I am very happy with it. I find it helps us have real discussions, as compared to other types of forum (and I've tried a bunch).

Two features in particular make me feel it's helping me rather than just trying to soak up my time and attention. One is the "topic" organization, which is especially useful for conversations that span a length of time. A serious downside to HN and Reddit is that discussions flare up for a day and then become dead. Topics solve that, and have the added advantage (compared to, say, IRC) of being linkable, so I can point people to an existing discussion.

The second is the unified chronological display. This lets me catch up quickly with lots of discussions at once, as opposed to digging through a page for each conversation and then sifting through timestamps to find the new comments.

Disclosure: none. I'm just a happy user, and it's generously available for free to all open-source projects. I have no connection to Zulip or Tim, other than being fellow Recursers (which is probably how a lot of Zulip users get hooked).
"Care" also requires a ton of imagination to implement beautifully. Rare indeed.

I didn't really see that, but I wasn't as involved in the community at that time. Of course, the company I work for is in no way tied to the economy of Houston (and outside of that, I've done a lot of remote in my career)
Congrats on finishing this.

A suggestion for the Zulip team: email is the hardest part of setting up any self-hosted solution, and Zulip is no different. You covered a lot of bases in your email section: https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/stable/production/email.html

However it's still too difficult for many people to setup an account with an ESP, get the SMTP creds, and configure Zulip to use it correctly. It's a big step for people newer to self-hosting. I would suggest meeting somewhere in the middle for those people, by offering a paid self-hosted tier that handles some of the "harder" stuff for them. You can see how the popular 3CX phone system does this for inspiration: https://www.3cx.com/docs/fqdn-management-allocation/

All 3CX accounts receive a FQDN and confirmation emails are routed through this managed service, no configs needed. You could charge perhaps $80/yr for this tier, so customers wanting to host their own data can do so, but have SMTP and DNS managed for them by providing them with a Zulip subdomain, like Slack does.

We can all argue till we're blue in the face over how vulnerable aircraft carriers are, but the reason that we're the only country with multiple super carriers (there are countries with multiple smaller carriers) is that they're expensive as hell and only the US's outsized military spending can support them.
