Developers should be quite right then ditching that middleware company and finding something professional instead, that works on Linux.

Most common closed gaming middleware works on Linux today (Wwise, Umbra3D and so on). And that's besides open source options of course. So the above is very unprofessional view.

That's still better than the 1000 year figure many claim takes for normal plastic bags to decompose.

They didn't riot, they were attacked and defended themselves. Look at any video from the event.
The whole "Cambridge Analytica" seems to be a limit (that we don't know if it is there or working...) that was only there because ... they weren't limiting.

Just not sure how that works.

I do agree that their privacy motivations may be a way to make sure that "we got ours, now nobody else should".
I want to put aside the question of whether this claim is true for a second, and just point out that it is - obviously, as proven by the response here - controversial among engineers. On that basis alone, it's never going to be part of an effective professional code of conduct. A code which starts with that condition will not be widely adopted. A popular code which tries to add it will fail, or be mired in controversy and lose members. A licensing regime which attempts to keep people who disagree out of the industry will be broken by (government-abetted) defectors or competing licensing.

The number of doctors or prospective doctors who deny the medical code of ethics is very nearly zero. Almost all debate around it centers on subtle questions like defining 'harm' in self-determination cases (e.g. assisted suicide). The number of lawyers who would reject a given the legal code of ethics is perhaps larger, but the code is accordingly narrower. Lawyers are for instance free (and in fact obligated) to support "not guilty" pleas by clients they know are guilty. The boldest parts of the code (e.g. that lawyers cannot actively lie on behalf of clients, or mingle personal business with professional work) are also the the parts which are regularly broken.

Striving to avert something you consider immoral is a sensible decision, even if other people dispute that ethic. But doing so with a professional code of ethics is not only a doomed task, it's one which dooms the rest of the code in the process.
How does any of this explain haggling over a medical bill?
We can be certain that after the failure of MKUltra, no freedom loving first world government ever engaged in such an experiment again. And even if they had, they surely would have informed us of the fruits of such research if any were found.

2 shifts but the push is def to have people work
more hours. Seems the main goal is figuring out how to make all the satellites with relatively unskilled staff(relative to satellite building. prior to this my friend worked at a bike shop and construction and has a BS in physics).
Frankly I'm not sure where the scam has a greater effect: at the estimate or the implementation. Probably a little bit of each, of course, but I think intentionally deflated estimates are the worse crime because they are the ideas upon which reality is built. That is, construction and production costs can be renegotiated, clawed back, or otherwise affected by things people can actually do, while estimates are made-up, set in stone, then used to calibrate everything else down the line. This process is not a great human achievement.

Thank you for the comment! I think it sums up some important critical questions very nicely.

While I am happy to see talented people working on important topics like this, I am really sad to see that this seems to be a for profit effort.

If you have the right team and vision it should be easy enough to get five million from public funders like the NSF without the leash of having to maximize profits (likely) at the expense of being able to maximize the overall benefit for society. For things that can go wrong just have a look at the dumpster fire aka fb.

Although I do believe that companies like Golden start out with the best of intentions, experience shows that the reality of financial expectations will likely win out in the end (e.g., Google, FB, Twitter).

So, why not go with an institutional structure that doesn’t have as many strings attached? INAL but maybe something like a public benefit corp [1]?

Fullstack.io | Book author | Remote | Part Time | https://www.fullstack.io/write-a-book Earn on order of $50k/year by writing a programming book. We’re the authors of Fullstack React, ng-book, Fullstack Vue and we’re looking to work with authors like you to write a few new books this year.
Our books sell very well because:

- We go way beyond API docs and teach everything you need to know to build real apps.

- We guarantee the books and code are up to date.

- We invest in marketing the books (and have an active email list of over 100k)

- We love the topics we write about and aim to create something remarkable every time.

If you decided to self-publish, you may find the marketing is more than writing the book. We have an audience, and we know what they want to read - so when your book is done, we already have people who want to buy it.

If you decide to go with a “traditional” publisher, you may be given a mediocre editor, write your book in MS Word (ha), and earn 5-15% in royalties. With us, our editors (me) are programmers first, our tooling is dev-friendly, and our royalties are split 50/50. (For scale, the author of Fullstack Vue earned $20k on the opening weekend.)

We’re looking to write content about JavaScript, Building Full-stack web apps, ASP.NET Core, Serverless, Python, Kubernetes, Elixir, etc. Anything up and coming.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, fill out the form linked below. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I think it’s hard for people to make themselves dedicate the time to learn something when they aren’t forced to. A big function of school is to force people to learn things, things they could perfectly well learn on their own if they didn’t lack the willpower.

I’m very grateful that my dad, recognizing back in the 90s how important a skill it was, made me learn to touch type when I was just six years old. I never got as good with the number row as with the letters, which was fine for a long time as I am very quick with the number pad, but nowadays I mostly use my laptop which doesn't have a number pad. It is a silly thing, because I could with a few minutes every day for a couple of weeks train myself to be as quick with the number row as with the letters, but I haven't and probably never will. There is no pressing need for it in my life and no one to force me to do it.

What we do actually matters.

It's estimated that 250,000 people die in America annually because of medical errors. That makes it the #3 cause of death, just behind heart disease and cancer ( https://goo.gl/zntNUd ). This is a major societal catastrophe - and it needs to be fixed. Part of the solution is the long-overdue modernization of our nation's health IT infrastructure. This is CareEvolution's mission - to create better patient outcomes by modernizing - and connecting - our health IT systems.

We're a small team - still under 100 people (and all technical!) - but our platform manages health data for over 130 million people.

We're looking for AWS engineers with experience in some of the following: EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, ELB, EBS. A more complete picture of job qualifications can be found here: https://stackoverflow.com/jobs/249670/aws-devops-engineer-fo...

They would have listed a charge for at least $67,957 if that's what they were tendering to the insurance company. Uninsured people do not get negotiated rates which are usually discounted. The final bill might have been lower if they negotiated. A lot of hospitals will lower the bill and then include that number in the amount of "charity" care they provide.

(I know that this is not the first or even the second attempt to wrap it in a nice cover. Hope that this one is handier than previous ones)
So this seems to me to be an instance of the system working. For example, the girl's family wasn't actually charged. The article notes the insurance paid for it. Keeping the price high here helps the hospital cover the costs of people who cannot afford treatment (I don't think this is a good sign, but it is how our system works).

The article also notes that due to competition, the price of the medication is now significantly lower. I guess I don't really see the issue here. This is to be expected... if there's a cheaper drug produced elsewhere that works the same, then it will become more used.
FastMail | Philadelphia | ONSITE | Full-time

https://www.fastmail.com/about/jobs/2019-04-clientdev.html

We're looking for an Email Client Application developer to join the FastMail team in our Center City Philadelphia
office.

Together with the rest of our team, you'll work on our email services FastMail, Pobox, and Topicbox. When the vast majority of people get email for free, the reason people choose a paid service is because they value both privacy and a great user experience.

You'll be working on our best-in-breed mail clients, providing super-fast, powerful access to webmail, calendars, contacts and more. You’ll work with our collaborative team of front- and back-end developers, designers and researchers. Improving our customers’ interactive experience, keeping it secure and a delight to use is what we do, every day.

Our interfaces are built upon our own Overture framework and the new email standard JMAP. It gives us full control from top to bottom to build the right solutions to difficult problems. If you've worked with other MVC application frameworks, like Apple's Cocoa, you should find Overture easy to pick up.

You'll have the opportunity to work at many levels:

* building features from scratch with our design and product teams

* optimizing and improving existing code

* tracking down and fixing elusive bugs reported by customers

Email us at jobs@fastmail.com to introduce yourself and tell us why you would be a good fit for the job! This job requires clear communication, so that message is part of your application, but please also include a PDF of your resume.

GitLab Product Manager for Verify (CI) here.

This is really valuable feedback, thank you for it. It's something we are thinking about and working on fleshing out a vision for. Two epics we have around these ideas include [1] Making CI lovable for monorepos and [2] Making CI lovable for microservices.

Both of these challenge our current assumptions around the project::pipeline relationship and will help make room for improvements around that model and provide flexibility to build more complex models that work for "real world" problems like the ones you've stated. However, I don't believe we have all the answers yet so I would love more feedback on these and the issues attached.

The justice system is broken enough in the USA (unless you are rich) that I can’t imagine introducing more issues.
I didn't get a great answer in regards to your requirements for burden of proof - you didn't expand upon the other evidence or your requirements for accepting these items. I understand and accept that there's a rift between mainstream reporting and what's actually happening, I'm sure we are all aware that not everything is above board, and their IS absolutely secret stuff happening, but if it appears on Wikileaks, do you treat it as the absolute truth, knowing that it is also has a completely opaque vetting process?

The exact same sort of obfuscation that you claim is being used to pull the wool over the mainstream could be being used on those who see the "truth", couldn't it? If the message was modified to appeal to your ideals, why is Wikileaks a source that's in any way more trustworthy than the mainstream?
