> being untrustworthy based on a single article

A single article... and the negative to do anything about it.

Yes it does.
> And as a kid, you certainly can't say a classic author is not interesting. You can't say the text is boring, that you don't see talent in it, that you didn't learn anything from it. It has been validated by society, hence it's good.

That is because that statement is both not useful in the context (you're there to pick it apart) and reflects pretty badly on your understanding, clearly the text has some depth, even if not consciously included, to be analysed. If your conclusion was "rubbish" when you're meant to be making a point about subtext, you're failing, its pretty simple.

People include subtlety in their art even if they don't intend it. Things can not be fantastic but still reflect society, the author, your own experience, which is the point of literature analysis.
Just afraid that time will come, when searching for black hole, neutrinos, gravity will primarily yield these kinds of topics. Not actual ones.
I tried something similar and was successful, so much so that I haven't been as happy at my current job (which is not remote). I made deep connections and friends (mostly with WeWork community managers, but not limited to them), and I genuinely felt like they cared about me and I could use their help in case of extreme loneliness.

It might be worth noting that I'm a young, social boy and most of the people I made friends with were at least 5 years elder to me and were slightly protective about me as well. Also I'm in India, where co-working and social culture may differ from where you are. Also worth noting that we did keep a balance of speaking and working, since you can't do both together and there were different areas people would move to depending on the intensity of their work at hand, I would almost always have company for lunch though (I even found people to commute with!).
> Google, Apple etc are public companies. Huawei is state controlled.

Citation needed - Huawei denies being under state control and there is no evidence of any direct state involvement in their day-to-day decisions. Maybe the Chinese state makes secret demands of them occasionally - but maybe the US state makes secret demands of Google/Apple occasionally.
China has millions of Uighur Muslims, journalists, dissidents etc in detention centres in the Western Xinjiang region. Some of whom were even fellow Australian citizens kidnapped that are still missing.

China has a surveillance network and social credit system that is unparalleled by anything in the entire history of this planet.

China is right now a Xi dictatorship that has no independent judiciary, no free press, no independent companies, censored internet and the most sophisticated and efficient crackdown mechanisms known to man.

And you actually think that the US or Britain is equivalent ? Ridiculous.
I’m sorry, in what world is literature or English multiple choice?!

In Australia / NSW it’s essays and essays, including a creative writing prompt that I’ve always genuinely found fun. Think /r/writingprompts.

Never really engaged with the rest of English but it requires choosing your own texts (no list) to compare and dissect. Still flawed? Yeah, but I feel like ‘they tried’.

…does not always work. When I give people a link they can't click on, they type it in the search bar. And not even in full, they tend to strip the http://www and .com ends. And you can't click on a piece of paper, which is where my CV typically ends up on.

Last week, I interviewed with someone who said he googled me. All he found was a "little GitHub page". My full name ranks my personal web site first or second on every search engine I've tried, yet he couldn't find it. Is the Google bubble that strong?

Have you used the Jenkins Job DSL plugin?

I'm just getting started using it, but it seems like the solution to scaling up to a lot of Jenkins jobs. There's a good talk about it, and since you're one of only two people in the thread who used the word DSL and you are having a good experience with Jenkins, I thought I'd ask.

My config is similar except my single EC2 node is actually running Kubernetes via kubeadm, it's a single node Kubernetes cluster and has enough room for about 3 of my worker pods to execute concurrently before the rest have to wait.

(But that's just my setup and has nothing to do with Job DSL.)

For me, managing Jenkins via the helm chart has been the best part of the deal, but I'm a pretty big fan of Helm already...

a) We don't know if the article is bullshit.

b) You have no evidence that that they didn't have sources, no evidence that they have ulterior motives and no evidence that they published the article without evidence.

c) Like you said if it was a year of effort by top-shelf journalists surely there is more to the story than simply "nothing".
>The first is that it's an international market, so any given country is better off to underpay and free ride on the R&D paid for by other countries.

By "free ride on the R&D paid for by other countries" the US market bought R&D is a especial fit for this outlook, but without any hard figures to hand, it is perhaps easier to flatteringly assume its stability. Others can do R&D in their own ways, including very significantly University research besides Nationally funded research. Pure commercial health research is problematically burdened by interest in profitability of potential treatments. Its unfortunate that in this age we are to assume international competitiveness in health and all important technologies as given and unavoidable, over cooperation. Cooperation is what we do with people we care enough for.

> The government is then put in the position of choosing who to make unhappy.

In UKs free health service practice most of the treatment decision is made by the treating doctors, who select the best treatment available to them for the patient. The doctors quite rarely don't have most expensive treatment option available and can advise that one is available for private purchase occasionally. This is unfortunate but such is the nature of illness.
Overall, the selection of treatment to patients is overwhelmingly worked out by doctors, not the government. There is a certain delay and compromise involved in the government selecting and making treatments available to the doctors, thats a matter contested between doctors and government, not patients and government.
US companies comply with laws governed by an independent judiciary and monitored by a free press.

China has none of those.
> I'm fairly sure the gitlab ceo commented before that they don't want to pay people way way over the local average because it could cause them to have people who don't want to be working there staying because they could never find a new job thats competitive where they are.

This is a cop-out because ultimately whether you are higher paid than the local average is subjective, since a) in most areas, nobody really knows what the local average is, they just have a feeling for it, b) local averages are just that, averages, it's further difficult to judge what salary a specific profile of person (given years of experience, educational background, etc.) can expect in a given local market, c) it is entirely possible to underpay people who wrongfully believe that they are being overpaid, due to information asymmetry and not interviewing with other local companies on a regular basis.

If you're not keeping in touch with your employees, and their happiness, satisfaction, and motivation levels, you cannot possibly know whether your employees perceive themselves as being overpaid or not. And if you're not willing to pay significantly above the local average, you're not going to attract the best talent in a given locality, and since a large part of the motivation for all-remote is to hire the best people you can get around the world, refusing to pay what they could be worth just shoots yourself in the foot as you risk losing them to all-remote companies willing to pay salaries at what is genuinely the market rate.

>To show honestly that the change is barely noticeable.

Any claim that the chart is misleading would have to show that it is disproportionate relative to the impact of these "barely noticable" changes on discounted future cash flows, which is the rational basis for stock valuation. These changes, if sustained, are potentially very significant.

>Then readers could see clearly that revenues were still growing

But the target audience already knows that because it's a simple headline number. The chart zooms in on a particular aspect that matters a great deal to that audience - for good reason.

> Try turning off overcommit completely and see how long it takes Chrome to crash even if you have a lot of available memory.

I thought the point of this discussion was talking about sane defaults? Of course if you're going to mess with kernel parameters then you run the risk of getting undesired behaviour. It's no different to when we used to tweak the BIOS in the 90s. So I'm not going to disagree with you there. But what are you actually proving aside how easy it is to break things if you mess with core settings that are designed for experts?

> This is how spotlight works though, no? It's a separate process gets notified by the kernel on file system changes and then indexes them (that's what I meant with FS integration).

That's not file system integration though. What you were actually describing was a completely different behaviour. Moreover, you claimed that Spotlight works differently from other tools of it's ilk and that is also untrue.

> (spotlight is 15 years old tech and linux has had xattr support in all major file systems for ages)

Again, you don't want that information in the file system table. Storing every little bit of information like that in xattr would slow down standard file system operations. What you actually want to do is store that information in a separate RDBMS (eg sqlite3, MySQL/MariaDB, etc). To be honest even something like Redis might work as long as it has a persistent backup.

> as far as I'm aware there is no robust file system change notification API (you can use inotify for some stuff, but it's limited in various ways). I'd love to be wrong about this though.

I've not spent a great amount of time with inotify but from my limited exposure I do recall it wasn't great with nested hierarchies. There's probably some better ways that I don't know of but this is a particular problem I've not needed to solve before so I'm as in the dark as you are.

> I think the situation is better on macOS, but it might just be that spotlight is more polished and there is no fundamental difficulty in writing the same for linux these days.

Honestly, I think the perceived differences are all imaginary. Like wine tasting when you're told one bottle is expensive and another is moderately priced - lots of people will start to imagine deeper flavours in the more expensive bottle even if those flavours don't exist. So much of our perceptions are based on expectations rather than experiences and I think that's what's happening here because I've used both Krunner and Spotlight and my honest impression is that they're both much the same.
Uhhhh... I'm so glad GitHub didn't exist when I was a student.

>>These are the actual things we should be talking about.

I (hesitantly) disagree. That specific tax policy change is a tree in a vast forest. It happens to be relevant here, but without it... It's not like Amazon, Google, apple, etc would have paid anywhere near the simple tax rate had that legislation not been enacted. Amazon had a different loophole/strategy in 2016 and will have another one for whenever the 2017 one expires whatnot.

Ultimately, corporate income tax has been broken for over 50 years, and it's been brought ken internationally, not just in the US.

...broken in the sense that the "rate" can be 35%, 23% or whatever and the total tax raised in an economy some number unrelated to that.

Reporting the way you suggest implies that in 2016 things were different, or that canceling that policy will yield a meaningfully different result. That's not the case.
Some are, but I think many don't.

Text analysis is a lot like wine tasting: there is something to it, but it's way over the top. And if you put a brand new text and put 10 experts on it, they will come up with different interpretations. They will even claim terrible wine is good because of the bottle.

There is also a huge mentality implication. See for example your reaction: you assume my understanding is bad while knowing nothing about me.

And I just criticized people drawing definitive conclusions about other people so distant we know little about them. The example in the article supports this and beyond, and while a few data point is not evidence, it calls for a debate.

I think it's perfectly ok for kids to be wrong about their text interpretation if they produce a personal constructed analysis. First because it's pretty hard to prove there is only one right analysis and you got it. Second because the process is as important as the result. Good teachers target that, but few do.
I thought this (among other paragraphs) provided context:

"Though both parties have sought to lower the top corporate tax rate in the last decade — President Barack Obama proposed lowering it from 35 percent to 28 percent — Republicans in 2017 pushed it down to 21 percent, in addition to expanding some generous tax breaks. The new law allowed immediate expensing of capital expenditures, for example, in order to goose investment. That was one of the primary reasons that more corporations paid no federal taxes, according to the report.

Mr. Trump and his Republican allies argued that the tax changes would stimulate investment and economic growth. That has happened, though not by as much as they predicted."

There's no debate here, the article was written by one person. It juxtaposes several facts (changes in tax law over the last 10 years, a group of profitable corporations with an effective corporate tax rate of 0 (or negative), poll results, factory closings, and a number of statements by presidential contenders) and, for context, adds a handful of statements from voters and minor activists to give the reader a sense of of how voters in Ohio are viewing these changes.

It's full of charts and dates and numbers. While the title is a little provocative, I find the body text to be informative and interesting, and feel the temperature is kept relatively low given the extremely contentious subject matter.

Since you were backing up the partial results, I assume this means you could load such a backup and continue from it if something happened to the running machine.

Does that mean that you could, if you wished, have switched to a different machine and just continued where you left off? E.g., could the Peffers team, if they knew about it, theoretically have taken your partial results and run them on their FPGA to obtain the final result a little bit faster than if would have been otherwise?

(Not suggesting this is in any way what you should have done. Just curious)
Plenty of people are saying otherwise, either directly "These cross-national inter-company agreements are illegal and should be reversed" or indirectly "These companies are free-riding by improperly exploiting loopholes and should pay more."

If the only issue were loopholes, the fixes are outside of Amazon/Google/other companies hands and in the hands of the legislatures of the various companies.
>Operations with 1,000 or more head of cattle on feed accounted for 75 percent of the inventory in 2007 and 77 percent in 2012.

That's from your source there. While most farms/ranches might be family owned, most cattle are in large operations.
I'd argue that the components are:

- job config

- agents & resources

- logs/results

- triggers/schedules

- web UI

- system config/'plugins'

- user directory with optional permission/ACL

and default ancillaries for secrets, artifacts, alerts, etc., with the idea that they could all be replaced with a purpose-built product that's actually good at it (i.e. Vault, Artifactory, PagerDuty/Sensu/whatever)

I think deployment is a separate problem space to CI and shouldn't be included

The reason everything currently runs "in the cloud" is very simple; it binds you to the vendor and prevents anyone from reverse-engineering the software in any sort of usable form. It's essentially DRM gone wild.

It never ceases to amaze me that people can say something like this with a straight face. As if "the Republican Party" exists in a vacuum, and that the Democratic Party is some bastion of widely held ideals. This is why some people, like me, consider Silicon Valley hopelessly out-of-touch.

Ordinary and necessary business expenses (expenses incurred with a reasonable overall expectation of profit) are, in general, deductible in the US because we tax income.

Personal expenses are not.

People end up paying all taxes anyway, just sometimes one or two steps removed from the legal entity/TIN who files the returns.
I thought you could carry forward income tax if you say paid a lot in one year due to share options? you could use this to offset later years tax.
