Clearly you’re not a student of Brazilian history.

Until 1988 Brasil lived under a CIA supported military dictatorship. I’m sure there are more examples of brutal Us intervention (same as there are in all of Latin America) but that’s the biggest one.

Also look at this map

Brasil who is not one of the top contributors to climate change will be one of the most affected countries. Now they want to chop their forests for productive activities and they’re being climateblamed for first world activists.

What I say to that - clean up your own house first. If you really want the amazon protected, pay for it by taxing your own carbon emissions. Brasil is going to suffer from your climate change activities, so it deserves compensation.

TLDR- Brasil is getting fucked by climate change. So the answer to this idiot idea that Brasil should be paying for the world’s sin is - no, fuck you back. You want to absolve yourself of your sins, pay up.
Because container tech is often per-thread which you have no control over in Go.

There is runtime.LockOSThread(), but then if something happens to spin up a new groutine from there it will be done on a new os thread and not running in the container context.

It's not totally impossible to work around, however it does make many things incredibly frustrating.
Right, but it still needs to be discussed.

Framing suicide as a bad solution to a problem reaffirms that it is still a solution, and gives room for the individual to justify away the taboo aspects (my situation is different because...). I don't know the right, ethical approach and I'd prefer to leave that discussion to psychologists, but we absolutely need to address it so people know what to look for in loved ones who may be at risk.

Personally, I think some people who may consider suicide are terrified of death in other situations. For some reason, suicide is different than dying in some other manner. Maybe it's about control, maybe it's a cognitive disconnect, IDK. What I do know is that it's a problem that we need to address through eduction, I'm just not sure on the best way to do it. Ignoring the problem seems to just push it online where the information can't really be controlled, so I think parents need to learn how to broach the subject.

> The internet makes it trivial to distribute documents for free

While I agree with pretty much everything else you wrote, I have to take some exception to this. Yes it is trivial to put something online. But library sciences exist for a reason, so if you want a nice collection of things online with some sensible structure it becomes less trivial. Worse yet if you want some way of ranking in importance the things in your collection, it requires a lot of manual intervention.

I think your solution is ultimately correct, but the peer review process is harder to solve than the technical one, and there is still a cost of some sort to implement and maintain the technical one.

Then you should be very much in favour of assigning expensive liability to companies running these centralized platforms. If it becomes extremely expensive or legally risky to maintain a big centralized database, that opens a window for free, open source federated protocols to fill that gap.

Consider: You can sue Megaupload Ltd, but you can't sue BitTorrent-the-protocol.

It’s hilarious that you’re so centred in your own politics that you don’t see the hypocrisy in that statement btw.

“Tariffs are easier to enable”. Sure, FOR YOU. By you are fucking over Brasil twice - once by enacting climate by your irresponsible, untaxed and unregulated carbon emissions. Then by BLAMING Brasil for doing something productive with THEIR forest land.

Why don’t you just tax your own carbon emissions and make a difference instead? Oh it’s politically difficult. Same as any action against carbon emissions.

So let’s fuck over the third world twice by A) causing climate change which will affect them more than us and B) making THEM PAY for OUR IRRESPONSIBILITY.

Why ? Because it’s more politically feasible to fuck them than to limit our own industrial capacity. America First

>I have no idea what this discount rate you’re talking about is (I don’t think we don’t have anything like that in the UK)

He's talking about the discount rate in the sense of net present value calculations[0].

Roughly, the idea is that if something will give me £100 in a year, I shouldn't be willing to pay £100 for it today. Because I could alternatively get £100 in a year by lending out £95 today at interest, I should only be willing pay £95 for ANY asset (say rights to a song) that will pay me £100 a year from now. The alternative interest rate one can earn in this context is known as the discount rate.

The idea from GP is that with compound interest, the value today of the payments I expect in year 70 are small relative to what I'd expect to make in the first few years because they're penalized by so many more years of potential interest. As a result, shortening copyright protections shouldn't change the value to an investor of funding new art by TOO much.

The frustrating thing about Go for me is that it lacks generics but is strictly typed, which encourages the passing of empty interfaces which can cause problems at runtime. You have to be very careful about storing all your data properly in structs or you face a big foot gun.

They aren't looking for an absolute rockstar who believes their experience puts them in a level above all other engineers, or someone who believes they are too good to go through the process everyone else went through.

They want someone who won't spread toxicity through the small team, and your numerous accolades does nothing to convey that. However, the way you've conducted yourself so far speaks volumes.

Hyrodgen can play a huge role in energy storage in a green economy. Creating and storing hydrogen for later use, like when a solar farm is idle at night; as it likely has a surplus during the day, is a common problem with all energy grids.
In this case I believe it is more an issue coming from the authors of that particular article. They probably used some bibliography software that recorded the sci-hub as the address for some articles cited, although published articles are peer reviewed people rarely scrutinizes all aspects of an article that finely to pick such issues.

Meat and fish, greens, and some vegetables plus whatever odds and ends I ran out of since my last larger grocery run.

Generally this means I’m never out of anything, my food is as fresh as the grocery store’s and/or the farmers’ markets, and I buy only what I need and will use in a dish within 48-72 hours.

Certain things, spices, a few different “safe” cheeses, and anything that I buy in a can or a jar tend to get picked up in one large shopping trip every two or three weeks, but also restocked in my daily grocery run on an as needed basis.

And yet with the rise of software recruitment platforms this practice seems to be creeping in to the US. Linkedin and Hired for example both "nudge" you to add a photo.

Also SSN isn’t that distinctive of a format. nnn nn nnnn. Check bits and reserved prefixes were all removed decades ago when it became clear we’d run out unless we use the whole name space (and even then that buys us to 2100). \d{3}\s?\d{2}\s?\d{4} will match a surprising amount.

Detecting SSNs is hard without accepting a high false positive rate. Much harder than phone numbers, credit card numbers, or cloud credentials.

I'm 41 and just hired a 50 year old devops guy, because he's good, a little nuts and fits our salary range. The problem with older developers for me is mostly the salary expectations. I'm looking for mid level or senior people, but for most developer positions a few years experience are enough – we're not doing rocket science and the extra experience only makes them more expensive, not more effective. This looks totally different for architect level positions where someone at 25 years just isn't credible enough.

> No, they’re not. Not necessarily.

It seems like a pretty direct relationship. Your link is comparing who caused the damage to who suffers it, but that's not the same as comparing who caused to who can prevent it. The people who can prevent it are the people still causing it. Notice that Brazil is the same color (red) in both versions of that map. (It's also a misleading comparison because the "harm" side is measuring change in GDP growth per capita, but GDP growth per capita is smaller in developed countries to begin with. And then comparing that per capita number with absolute rather than per capita CO2 emissions.)

> Countries that are vital to stopping climate change because they have huge green areas, ie Brasil, are actually being heavily impacted by climate change and now they are being climateblamed by the first world for chopping down their forests for productive activities. Well if the first world wants the forest to stay they ought to pay for it.

Should we make the same argument all around? Generating electricity is for productive activities. If the third world wants the US stop burning coal then they should pay for it? No. The country doing the bad thing should suffer the cost of stopping it.

> Well then protect it - tax your corporations for carbon emissions and buy up the amazon to protect it. Simple.

It's easier to get tariffs put on a foreign country than pass a tax on your own people. It would be nice if some other countries (China? Europe?) could put some tariffs on the US tied to some CO2 targets as well.
As a hiring manager I'm literally losing sleep over this problem.

I've been on both sides of this now and it's such a delicate balance.

As a developer, you want to be fairly evaluated to prove your worth.

As a hiring manager, you want to make sure you don't hire a dud (or worse, someone that will drag down the rest of your team).

I spend more than 1/2 of my day now trying to build out a team that I need to aggressively hire for. I've radically revamped our hiring questions to ensure they are:

* Based on real-world code. That means coding up components if you're a front end developer or API contracts if you're a back end developer.

* Includes a breadth of tasks. PR reviews, writing code, writing tests, and systems design are all a part of the assessment - not just algorithms tests.

* Has clear acceptance criteria. I want to remove as much bias and subjectivity from the assessment as possible. Every question we use has a Wiki page designed to formulate the question, the unit tests, and sample answers as well as grading criteria depending on the level we're hiring for. Expectations for Principal engineers are different than those for mid-level engineers.

It's not perfect. I'm not perfect. But I'm trying. SO hard. I hope that we're resolving this problem in the best way possible for both us as a company and you as the candidate.

Full disclosure; I screwed up one of those enormously several years ago when I just couldn't remember the C++ std function for turning a string into an int. Was it toString? tostring? stringify? No, that's crazy, none of the std has "ify" on the end. I must be thinking of some other framework I used once. What about intToString? No, that can't be it. itos? itoa? That's not standard. They've given me locked down web access to a C++ reference (and nothing else), I can just use that. WTF - this isn't cppreference.com. I suppose I could open up the header and ... oh, it includes a bunch more headers, and string of course is itself really basic_string<char> so I'm going to be searching through a lot of template...

Suffice to say I was looking for to_string, and what I did was blow through too much of my time trying to remember this, and writing my own function to do it instead, which worked fine, but then I ran out of time and didn't finish all the tasks in the time permitted. For want of remembering to_string.

This isn't a men vs women thing. It's a young adult thing, and like you said it's something cultural and societal. The fact that young women are getting educated is a victory for everyone, but MarketWatch would rather use it as social justice bait.
> The plaintiffs believe that because Social Security numbers had a fixed format, GitHub should have been able to identify and remove this data

I don't see how they can expect to enforce this with 100% accuracy.

SSNs do have a fixed format but other things could potentially follow the same format.

For example what if you had a library that lets you configure randomly generated codes in a XXX-XX-XXXX format and it just so happens one of the random codes matches a valid SSN pattern?

Is GitHub going to mess with your code? What if you have tests that matched on a hardcoded random number in a SSN-like format. If GitHub scrubs that then suddenly your CI tests might not pass. Also how would it deal with modifying your git history so others couldn't clone it with the potentially sensitive data?
