Unconstrained by non-competes?

The theory is that the Bay area has a huge liquid pool of talent, and that not being able to hire critical talent at all is even less "economical", in that you're less likely to be able deliver your product or service to market.

You're right. And this is where human psychology can and is being manipulated for financial or political gain, hence the internet has become the largest and most effective tool for such in the history of humanity. I don't underestimate the net benefits internet has brought to the table but same goes for the negatives.
This idea immediately makes me think of Tweetdeck which sounds neat until you're working on something and are constantly distracted with new items popping into the comment stream. Maybe I'm just getting old but I would prefer a good weekly summary of the news: allow plenty of time for meaningless ephemera to be filtered out and just tell me what happened that's relevant. While technology moves fast, even JavaScript doesn't move so fast that checking in weekly will leave you hopelessly behind.

Yup, same. I love that i have to charge it once every 3 weeks, tracks my bike rides while i commute to work, runs and workouts.

“Will” doesn’t want to buy your house. Will wants to collect the lead, determine how appealing the property is, and sell the lead to someone local. Will isn’t touching that property with a 10 foot pole. Phil on the other hand, just bought the lead and will make a lowball offer.

Oh, and "Will" on the voicemail isn't Will either. It's a voice actor off of Fiverr that likely has no idea their voice is being used for this scheme.

I found the same with the translations, I was looking for a contact/feedback option to tell them, but couldn't find any way to contact the site owner. Throughly enjoyed this anyway! PS, I believe "usine" translates to "Oven" or "furnace", at least that's what I've learned in high school (French wasn't really my strong suit though), which makes sense in that's where the coal is burned to generate heat>pressure>power.
> if its not turning a profit with that R&D spending then the business is not sustainable by definition.

Why? If the revenue perfectly matches the expenses (including R&D), it won't turn a profit, but it can be sustained indefinitely.
As with most bureaucratic procedures, there was probably one person, one time, who went absolutely nuts and tried to wipe all corporate data / attack every coworker they never liked / ... after giving notice.

Many very serious meetings were then held to ensure this could never ever happen again, regardless of the cost-benefit tradeoff, because inconvenient procedures don't make headlines.

This seems like an American phenomenon. I'm planning on handing in a notice soon, and from asking around it seems like 4 weeks minimum is the standard in the UK. A 2 weeks notice only happens when you leave on really unfriendly terms.

Those classes are all about conformity. It's about learning how to play the game of life and not going against the grain. "smart students" learn to read their teachers and know how to feedback the expected answers even if they don't agree or believe in it. A lesson that's very much needed in life.

A lot have not learned this lesson and this is why many of us on this site still marvel at the bullshit companies raising millions and wondering HTF! Because those "smart founders" learned how to feed BS that their audience expected back to them.

I learned this lesson when I took humanities, it was so stupid, but I knew exactly what the teacher wanted to hear when we studied architectures & paintings. It was all subjective and her own opinion. I fed her back her crap and I passed the class.

If you haven't learned this yet, it's not too late. The world is full on chicken shit.
I’m not saying you’re wrong legally, but I don’t quite follow your argument. You say “between those two dates, the employee has the same expectation of employment” but then immediately follow it up by saying that the unemployment benefits should extend indefinitely outside of that date range.

You may be right legally, I really couldn't say, but it makes perfect sense to me that the unemployment benefits would extend only to the announced separation date.

> everything above the fold is now an ad.

Is this actually true? Assuming that the top queries are still things like "mortgage", "lawyer", etc, when I search those terms, my above the fold are a Google Maps box with local results, a Wikipedia box, and a single organic Yellow Pages link.

Now, "personal injury lawyer" is indeed all ads for me, but on the whole, I feel like I'm seeing fewer overall explicitly sponsored links than was the case 5-10 years ago.
> cathedrals are accretions of effort over time, no cathedral is ever finished

The basic premise of "How Buildings Learn" by Stewart Brand, co-founder of The WELL, is that the better buildings are those that can and may adapt to different purposes over their life span. Like they say, 'this home has good bones' if the house has good infrastructure and structure. This can also be obviously applied to software construction.

It is possible that Samsung will not do so. It's the same problem that would have affected them had they actually colluded: each player has incentive to wait until others have cut production/raised price and maintain their own. Handy way to snap up market share. Every one loves to scream "price fixing!", but it's not easy to do and almost always collapses.
Before I read the answer, I guessed it was C, even though I hadn't read the poem—because it's the only logical statement about what breaking a poem into two stanzas can do.
Yeah, I happen to live in an area that CL offers 6mbps maximum to, and it is weirdly in a minority-dense part of Seattle metropolitan. They have zero plans to expand to our area, they've stated repeatedly.

I'll throw stones as much as I like, thanks.
These tests also usually include scientific articles that are used to test whether students can figure out basic facts presented in an article. But that's only one part of reading comprehension. Students also must be able to understand the structure of the text, themes, use of devices like metaphors and similes, etc. These are higher-level concepts, but still objective ones. And they are present in all types of writing, not only technical articles. This particular set of questions is directed at evaluating those skills.

The tests don't purported to be "testing ability at deep literary criticism." The kids aren't learning poetry, they're reading poetry to help develop general reading comprehension skills. If you look at the STAARS curriculum for Grade 8, the tested skills include:

> Students understand, make inferences and draw conclusions about the structure and elements of poetry and provide evidence from text to support their understanding.

That's exactly what the questions are asking about: the structure and elements of the poem.

I am using the declarative syntax. It's just as horrible to debug. Play around with it a bit, delete some characters, misconfigure it. You won't even get a line number, just as I said.
We have made significant progress towards lowering the price of our system, considering that similar devices up until now cost $75k-$150k. But it is still quite expensive for the vast majority.
Our price will continue to reduce over time, making it more accessible for both families and insurance.
I wouldn't recommend it, you'd destroy accessibility and countless other built-in browser features.
I don’t get the whole being walked out by security thing. It seems just an unnecessary show of force or humiliation without any benefit. If a person had wanted to do danger then they could have done that easily before putting in notice. It makes no sense.

Except she didn't. She hired an IT person to run a personal email server.
There’s no question that unemployment benefits are worse for that employee than their full employment benefits, and that extended unemployment benefits are better for the employee than them ending on January 1.

I just don’t think that’s a sufficient argument for saying that the employee is entitled to those things legally or ethically.
But they won’t be leaving the market, right? Therefore, they expect to make some profit at the expected higher price, and would stand to gain the most if all others cut production, except for them.

This is a classic prisoners’ dilemma, where everyone should defect. If they don’t, it must be due to coordination, either ex- or implicitly. And because anti-trust is civil law, it criminal, the standard of poof is “preponderance of evidence”, i. e. >50%.
> if you keep getting attacked via the tor network

This is why we can't have nice things. Given enough time and traffic, eventually the worst-behaving actors will poke at everything vulnerable any way they can, until everything gets locked down so tight that everyone with half a brain develops acute paranoia and an intrusive sense of defeat. I honestly think it's genetic, though, and there will continue to be a lack of easy answers.

Try to find a few humans in meatspace you can trust. Preferably with skills that balance well with yours.
> Many of the martial artists whom I know began training for purposes of self-defense. Some began as adults, and some were placed in training by their parents after being bullied.

There's a difference between saying that something helps with with being bullied (many disciplines achieve that by offering a structured environment, a framework to develop experience, consciousness over one's body, controlled confrontation, and a controlled experience of pain; I personally found taking up fencing helped me a lot) and saying it's a practical self-defense technique.

> That's totally out of the scope of this conversation; I made no claims as to the seriousness with which cycling ought to be treated. I think most sports are given too much credence.

Very few people regard martial arts as "more serious" than other sports. You dodged my example of naginata; do you consider martial arts that can't be used for practical self defense to be "less serious"?

> Most sports involve pushing yourself physically. This does not involve such exertion and improvement.

I wouldn't be so sure - maintaining precise control over one's body can involve a lot of physical effort. Often making something look effortless is part of a sport's aesthetic, but actually involves a lot of hidden effort to achieve. Consider figure skating or gymnastics, or indeed "real" dressage.
She mostly follows english speakers on Twitter. Twitter is a useful way to improve language skill because there is a "Translate" button right there, and it's already part of your routine if it's in your feed. It's kind of funny she mentions circling a word Le Monde and then looking it up, as if there weren't much better ways of doing that online.

Because Twitter is such a good way to learn a language I've started an account for learning a little Greek every day (you need the equivalent of a year of Greek already).

I'd put this in a different category than 2FA, password manager, or basic "watch out or phishing emails" training. All of those things can be enacted by the individual end-user if the organization doesn't enforce it. But it doesn't look like DMARC is something the individual can turn on or off--it's completely on their IT to set it up.

I'm not sure how easy it is to setup, either. Assuming they're paying for Office 365 or G-Suite for outlook/gmail on campaign domains, is that something that Microsoft and/or Google will turn on automatically for you?

VS Code wants party like it's 1984
The discussion in https://github.com/heycam/webidl/pull/357 is one example (the Web IDL spec defined the behavior of all the non-Chrome browsers as the spec behavior, then Chrome introduced a third behavior that they want to implement and is trying to get the spec changed to match it).

There were several things in the flexbox spec where Chrome refused to implement what everyone else was doing and the spec ended up getting changed, but I don't have links offhand, sorry. It would take me some hours of digging through bug reports and mailing lists to find them. In general, there have been a lot of things like this in the CSS world that I see peripherally, but I'm not as involved in that personally, so don't have them at the tips of my fingers.

A recent thing that came up is that the behavior of the `disabled` property on `HTMLLinkElement` in Chrome does not match the (very long-standing; literally decades) spec, and it looks like at this point we're going to need to change the spec to match Chrome because sites are writing code to the Chrome implementation, not to the spec, and it's causing compat problems for Firefox (which does implement the spec).

Now don't get me wrong: there are lots of cases in which Chrome _does_ fix longstanding spec-compliance issues. But that's not the only dynamic happening here.

Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy (2018) [pdf]
I am sure i will get hundreds of downvotes for this but i still dont accept that the Russians targeted the DNC. Wikileaks says otherwise, the only people who examined the servers are a nakedly anti-Russian security outfit hired by the DNC and to date zero hard evidence has been presented this is true. There are so many holes in this narrative, and given the total lack of credibility the press has after the Russiagate collusion story we shouldnt also allow this piece to slip through as accepted fact.
In this recent article [1], about half way through, the author writes about work on cold cathodes. These are field-emission devices like you describe.

Vacuum-channel transistors do not actually use a vacuum, because the channel is much shorter than the mean free path of electrons in air, and they usually cross the channel without colliding with any air molecules, and, despite the field strength, without gaining sufficient energy to ionize them when they do.

Its one month since the initial release and lots of things happened.

- Intercepting navigation intents for security and/or animation

- Utilizing query parameters

- Serverside Rendering (SSR)

- Setting the window title, fetching the current path, performance improvements and more

As usual, all purely utilizing hooks. No JSX has been harmed during the development :)
That's a good point. Perhaps we can build a similar model to a car warranty where the actuators are covered for a longer period, but other components are not. Atleast it gives people a peace of mind regarding the most expensive items.
I use Google's Call Screen service. It answers the call and tells the caller to state their name and reason for calling. The response shows up on my screen as text and I can decide to pick up at any time.

99% of the time, the call just disconnects.

I really wish Google would let me set my phone to ring only for numbers in my address book and give everybody else a busy signal.

I am highly suspicious of China's motivation for this. It happened at roughly the same time as news broke that the chinese stole Micron's technology. China is not exactly known for good or fair practices, and it would not be the first time they screwed over a foreign competitor and stole their tech to make a competitor.
I think it is a good thing JSON is limited in what types it supports. Otherwise it would contain so much type bloat while at the same time still annoying someone somewhere because his type is not supported by JSON.

If you are able to pull your data from the database and process it in a programming language of your choice, you can write a custom serializer that takes a tsrange and spits out some JSON, e.g. a JSON array with two items [start, end], which you then can pass on to a client that understands your JSON format.
No OP, but I read his thesis that low-level courses should also be putting the "emphasis on analytical thinking about the text," but instead focuses on the "supposed correctness of the analysis"

But if we make a world safe from these .000001% events, what do you think that will look like?

I'm still disappointed that new smart watch development has seemingly stalled in progress as of late. I was hoping that by this time we'd have watches that had 24 hour battery life, and an always on display that didn't need a flick of the wrist to activate. I hoped that wouldn't be asking for much, but I guess it's harder than I assumed.

It doesnt really matter what I claim, what we know is sufficient and we have that already quoted here.

> Classified documents point to covert US and UK activity. Former US secretary of defense Caspar Weinberger stated that Western submarines operated ‘regularly’ and ‘frequently’ in Swedish waters in order to ‘test’ the Swedish coastal defences, and former British navy minister Sir Keith Speed confirms the existence of such operations. Royal Navy submarine captains admit having carried out top-secret operations in Swedish waters, and that a member of Cabinet signed approval for every single operation

as well as

>Many military officials and politicians said they had never heard of the NATO exercises.

>``You need some sort of agreement to do a thing like this. But I know nothing of such an agreement,″ said Admiral Per Rudberg, head of the navy from 1978 to 1984.

>Current Defense Minister Bjoern von Sydow said he was surprised, but added, ``I have no reason to question what a former U.S. defense secretary is saying.″

To summarize, we know that both the US and the UK have carried out submarine incursions into swedish waters, the US on a "frequent and regular base". We also know, that the head of the Swedish Navy did not know these operations, "to test Swedish costal defenses" took place.

So unless you are arguing the source (which source, AP?) is doctored, I really dont understand what you are trying to do with Occam's razor.

On the implications of these informations: If we are arguing about the effect on the Swedish population as well as on the government, I think it would be fair to summarize the period as Sweden getting more and more nervous with one sub sighting after another. Which at the time was assumed to be soviet subs by the public, leading to an increased fear of a soviet invasion and a more positive view on becoming a NATO member. Sweden is a democracy, the populations view is rather important.
