The Weird Magic of Eiderdown
No, that's entirely what a "checked out" Loser person would say. The step before upper management until you add enough egoism and sociopathy in. ;)

Clueless, these are the people who believe in so called company values, think they can change things or try to achieve something. Relatively rare nowadays in most places, but these do happen.
Both of the middle managers were this.

Losers are people who indeed care more about social aspects than getting things done. While the top sees this as a distraction it really is, but does not care about the day to day operations, just power.
I think that the point being made is that in a world with true equality, there is no bar, because each person's perspective is as valuable as any other's. The existence of a baseline necessarily requires choosing a perspective and enshrining that as an ideal to be aspired to, which is a power play on the part of the person setting the standard. There's nothing inherent about reality that requires that: the alternative is that you do your thing, I do mine, each of those things is as valuable as the other, and if our things conflict we work out our differences amongst ourselves (or if necessary, bring in a neutral third party to adjudicate that is mutually acceptable to both of us).
> The trend you see is that every year, tech grows by ONLY the number of visas they are granted.

That very strongly suggests that there's a shortage of tech workers in the United States. What's the unemployment rate for CS majors? [1]

> From the data, which theory of the labour market do you think best describes the history of the tech sector in the USA?

The data appears to describe a tech sector that cannot find enough skilled workers to fill the positions it has available. Virtually all of the CS majors are employed. There is a large pool of skilled labor abroad, however, which US tech companies would like to tap into. They have two ways to do so: getting those workers to come to the US or setting up shop where the workers are.

There seem to be a lot of protectionist-minded tech workers in the US who are convinced that their salaries would increase if there were fewer visas handed out. That's probably true in the short run. If you constrict the labor supply, you force companies to outbid one another to hire the remaining workers. But once that initial shock subsides, companies will wise up and expand their operations overseas, where skilled labor is cheaper.

1. The answer seems to be about 2%, with less than 1% of CS majors being unemployed for longer than 26 weeks: https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2018/05/29/unemp...

I keep hearing all of these "Vue just makes more sense than React" converts, and I'm baffled. I recently did some Vue after doing React for a few years, and it felt like a major step backward. It felt very JSP - here was a different syntax that was HTML except when it chose not to be - managing data was done in a custom expression language, and I was left to figure out what scope a given value had. Need to loop something ten times? It's one tag with a special "v-for" property. Want do to that loop with a condition? Special "v-if" property, and is that evaluated in the scope of a variable created by v-for or not? No idea! And that's not even getting into the various parts a Vue component object has.

JSX is just javascript. It's HTML looking, but is ALL (not some) a wrapper to write a JS function that outputs HTML. Need to have a loop? Loop in JS. Need to have a conditional? Condition in JS. What scope? This is all a JS function, so the scope rules are all JS scope rules.

I have no idea if I'm a weird minority, or if I'm just running into more people that felt better with Vue than React, but I really don't understand why.
- native mobile apps: I thought they would be replaced by simple webapps within a year, cause the costs of developing and maintaining at that time three different native apps appeared unreasonable.

- app stores: the facts that they exist and people make money from it. From a user perspective ratings and stats seem to be of utmost importance
One of the things I do when I'm the only car waiting at an otherwise empty intersection is to think about all the ways it could be better automated rather than timed.
> We would ride our bicycles more than 5 miles along US-44. It has 2 lanes each side for a total of 4 lanes, 2-foot shoulders, and traffic that often got to a decent highway speed. There could be snow on the shoulder. One of the older bridges was narrow, with only about a half-foot shoulder. We went anyway.

And I bet it was uphill! Both ways!
I think it's moved. GG Park, when I've visited recently, has been delightful - I let my 18mo play freely in many of the open areas. The Mission, Tenderloin, Civic Center, and much of Market Street looks like a warzone. Or an outhouse. Or an outhouse that got bombed in a warzone.

SF is weird in that you can have very nice areas that are literally just a couple blocks away from hellholes.
A few use cases I've personally experienced:

1. Demo during presentation on a local server (as you suggested)

2. Demo during presentation on someone else's computer without R installed

3. Quick-and-dirty dashboard for non-technical colleagues, hosted on an on-prem server

4. Simple GUI interface to some kind of R functionality (as seen here)

It's definitely not some kind of universal tool. But it comes in handy and I'm grateful that it exists.
Great, many thanks!!

Women Suddenly Got Thinning Hair Or Hair Loss? How to Stop Female Hair Loss and Grow it Again

Female hair loss is a big problem that affects millions of women all around the World. And even though the thinning and disappearance of hair is generally thought of as a male issue, many women have the problem as well, and it's often a lot worse for them. Fortunately, there's an easy way to fix female hair loss permanently by using a natural remedy.

Fortunately, female loss of hair is a LOT easier to treat than its male counterpart. This is because the cause of women losing their hair is usually down to one simple problem - hormones. Men have genetics and other causes of this issuue... but women only have one thing that prohibits hair growth - a hormone called DHT is to blame.

DHT stands for "Dihydrotestosterone" and is one of the most devastating things that can happen to your hair. This hormone is present in everyone's bodies (men and women) and it controls the amount of hair growth on various parts of our body. A good way to see this in action is to compare the length of your hair on your head to the likes of the hair on your arms... it's different lengths because DHT lives inside the hair follicles and controls the rate of hair growth.

The reason why you're experiencing loss of hair is simply because this hormone has embedded itself inside the follicles on your head, making them unable to grow any hair. This process has not killed or destroyed the hair follicles, but has simply "sent them to sleep". The official terminology is that DHT makes the hair follicles "dormant", leading to the falling-out of any hair that is inside them, and the shutting-down of any further hair production.

We have indentation for context, the only thing this is really bringing to the table is highlighting variables of the outer context when used inside the inner context. But that only seems necessary because the example is awful code, cramming everything into the return statement. There is also an awful lot of brown there that would have been clearer with syntax highlighting, so even in this contrived example it's a mixed result.

And if syntax highlighting is training wheels and context colouring is better, does that make it your dad holding the back of the seat?

It's interesting to hear, knowing the the lack of XSS Auditor on Firefox for years was a recurrent topic on Bugzilla. Even IE and Safari got similar protections. Curious to see if the XSSs I found over the years will now work on Chrome.
I would argue that the only barrier right now is information asymmetry. With the right knowledge I should be able to compete with the big boys by just moving compute around to the cheapest provider, getting information using nothing more than a script for scraping pricing pages and being able to run code on distros derived from either Debian or RHEL. The thing is, that I don't have the information that the insiders do about the billions of other workloads that are being run. They should be able to use that information to massively reduce costs (aka under utilization of resources) and more importantly to _undercut the prices of their competitors_ but they are not. Where I agree with you is that if I tried to do such a thing and they found out, they would just drop their prices and force me out. They can do this because relatively speaking they have infinite capital compared to an individual.
Yep. One of my expat friends lived in Songdo and it was great every time I went to visit. It doesn't have the same pop density as Seoul, but it's a great mixture of a modern city and proximity to nature.

Also the hour and a half ride is a big deal but not too big of a deal. Parts of Seoul are an hour subway from Seoul. When I lived there, it was close enough that we would go to our friend's place before clubbing in Gangnam some nights. (Pretty sure we took a taxi to the club though)

When will companies selling ML stop making these statements in attempts to whoa people?

It's hugely apparent that it's not even physically possible to pull that move off.

Indeed, from Latacora's recent "The PGP Problem":

> Encrypting Email

> Don’t.

> Email is insecure. Even with PGP, it’s default-plaintext, which means that even if you do everything right, some totally reasonable person you mail, doing totally reasonable things, will invariably CC the quoted plaintext of your encrypted message to someone else (we don’t know a PGP email user who hasn’t seen this happen). PGP email is forward-insecure. Email metadata, including the subject (which is literally message content), are always plaintext.

> If you needed another reason, read the Efail paper. The GnuPG community, which mishandled the Efail disclosure, talks this research down a lot, but it was accepted at Usenix Security (one of the top academic software security venues) and at Black Hat USA (the top industry software security venue), was one of the best cryptographic attacks of the last 5 years, and is a pretty devastating indictment of the PGP ecosystem. As you’ll see from the paper, S/MIME isn’t better.

> This isn’t going to get fixed. To make actually-secure email, you’d have to tunnel another protocol over email (you’d still be conceding traffic analysis attacks). At that point, why bother pretending?

> Encrypting email is asking for a calamity. Recommending email encryption to at-risk users is malpractice. Anyone who tells you it’s secure to communicate over PGP-encrypted email is putting their weird preferences ahead of your safety.
It should be possible for the viewer to select a different dollar rate , everyone's time has a different value, so it makes sense to read only the emails who are willing to pay you for your time to acknowledge their offer.

1) I think GraphQL is more relevant than ever. Facebook ran into the same problems like Netflix, Airbnb and Twitter and thus came up with GraphQL [0].

2) The most popular one I know is GitHub's GraphQL API [1]. I made the difficult decision to rely on their API to teach GraphQL in my free book [2]. So far, there were no breaking changes for me and people love it to learn GraphQL from a client's perspective.

3)I would use it if I want to have no under-/overfetching, declarative data fetching, microservice API aggregation, ... [3]

4) Using it in personal projects and one client of mine is using it in one application to aggregate multiple microservices (each one speaking GraphQL) into one GraphQL API gateway. So far, everything works like expected. We didn't hit any rate limiting and caching issues because of the N+1 problem yet. But we are prepared for them :)

Precedent for New Deal decisions can be traced directly back to the Mann Act, which included all-encompassing language like "to aid or assist in obtaining transportation" and "to induce, entice, or compel". See https://archive.org/stream/283075-the-mann-act-1910/283075-t...

Actually, IIRC you can go back further to the fugitive slave laws to find precedent where activities only incidental to interstate commerce were deemed to be reachable by Federal powers.

I say this not to defend it, but to point out that the history is complicated. And that there's not a simple liberal vs conservative dichotomy. Historically conservatives have supported expansive morality and pro-business laws and liberals expansive social programs and protections going back a century before the New Deal, and each used precedent set by the other. (Small 'c' conservative and small 'l' liberal because linkages to particular parties and political interests gets messy quickly, especially the wider the window of time.)

A couple of people actually do sell kits on Amazon for ~$10-50k (https://www.amazon.com/Jackson-275-119-Sq-Ft-Tiny/dp/B07SPTW...)

I can't speak to other kits -- some of the shipping container ones actually seem like they might work for some people (https://simpleterra.com/) but we looked into working with Amazon kits and it's really tough. The two main issues are on-site work and bringing the kit up to a livable standard.

On-site work is expensive -- think $50-80k depending on the site to secure a building permit, level the ground, and pour a foundation. There are some new types of low impact foundations (closer to $15k + $20-30k for permits) we've seen and are exploring but I don't know we could do that with a kit.

The main issue is with turning the kit into something livable. Kits are usually difficult (and loud) to assemble, the wood needs to be finished so it doesn't rot, they usually aren't designed to accommodate plumbing, gas, and electrical lines, and unless you want to spend hundreds of hours of your own time to learn those skills, you'll need to manage and hire 5-10 professionals which quickly eliminates the initial cost savings.
Being a rural peasant farmer in a region with an undiversified economy can be very bad. Within people’s living memory rural peasant farmers in many parts of the world were literally starving.

Rural peasants have been getting screwed by wealthy local aristocrats since the beginning of agriculture thousands of years ago. Peasants have their wealth stolen, get pressed into forced labor, get killed or raped on a whim, have their agricultural output seized while they don’t have enough food for themselves, have their land stolen and given to someone more powerful or better connected, ....

But the big outward migrations from rural places come when there is massive population growth but no commensurate growth in jobs. People’s choice ends up being to either starve or move. The first stop is the nearest big city.
This is something I have had at the back of my mind for a few years now - a website that lets people upload hypotheses and link evidence that supports or rejects the hypothesis.

Such a website would allow people to gain insights, by gathering individual bits of evidence observed in various news articles, research papers, etc. and linking them together to form a larger picture.

When I lived in an urban core...

I stepped out of my door into a hallway of doors, greeted by the scent of several different ethnic foods being cooked, and usually the sound of one or more families.

I take an elevator down the stairs to the lobby, nod at the guy manning the desk who was interested in what I ordered yesterday (it was heavy - he thought car parts, was a rack-mount UPS).

I step out into a U shaped walkway, lined with bushes, with a cherry tree in the middle before merging onto the sidewalk.

Fifteen minutes away in one direction is a zoo that was free. Full of kids learning new things about amazing wildlife. Five minutes in the other direction is a hiking trail, onto another hiking trail.
The Neanderthals lived hundreds of thousands of years longer than the entire existence of homo sapien. Their peak technological development was stone age, which sounds even nicer than what it is. Pound two rocks together, notice sharp pieces fall off, use them -> you're now in the stone age. And, contrary to misinformation driven by mass media - there is no clear evidence they engaged in any form of art, adornment, or generally symbolic behavior. [1] Extremely high rates of traumatic injury among the discovered remains also implies that in their hundreds of thousands of years of existence they failed to even refine their hunting technique.

When working with a manufacturer's RAW format, there is a defined way to get the values (R, G, B, T_from) as a result of demosaicing. For example, in the author's photo post-demosaicing, the manufacturer calibrates the final data to obtain (I'm completely making this up) T_from = 2700K. Then using that information, you can correctly adjust the temperature to any other temperature using `f` above.
