I also did the community college route (before transferring credits to a four-year school) and I learned so, SO much in those two years. The community college had some cutting edge classes (at the time) like a web development course that taught PHP, MySQL, and Javascript, but also language-focused courses like Java and C# that focused on teaching OOP. The community college did not teach traditional CS concepts like Big-O, sort algorithms, etc. it wasn't until the four-year school that I learned those. It cost all of $2,500 to attend the community college those two years (with the added bonus of skipping two years worth of general education requirements at the more expensive four-year school school).

Money well spent.

I actually considered taking my newfound web development knowledge (this was in the mid-late 2000s coming out of the Web 2.0 craze) and starting my own website business, but the advisor at the community college recommended I go ahead and get the four-year degree, which I absolutely realize was a good decision.
I have, actually (Kenya). I'm also lucky enough to hold the passport of another developed country that helps its expatriates and doesn't have a regressive expatriate tax system, so I can compare.
That sounds like irony. Given the author is German and lives in France for years, it could totally be a sarcasm to denounce the current situation. It's hard to tell just by text though.
The article addresses this practice and states that the bacteria found in babies born vaginally differs from the bacteria found in the vaginal canal this further calling into question this practice. The bacteria instead seems to come from the mother's gut.
It reminds me of the famous photo that Stalin had altered to remove a person from, so as to erase them from history entirely. I don't think the practice magically becomes acceptable just because you promise to keep the original copy locked away in a vault somewhere for an elite class of special people to access (who both happen to be members of deep institutional structures with a long history of abusing their power). This idea shouldn't even be entertained. Everything about it is a deeply awful idea.

You've managed to say a lot without really saying anything.

You make plenty of baseless assumptions about my background and ambitions... but I'm not even going to try to address my professional experience (or lack thereof) because it doesn't matter, since you're just using it as a straw man to deflect criticism.

The facts are as follows:
1. Reddit is one of the highest visited websites in the world.
2. Throughout nearly their entire history, they've struggled to put together a way to make money.
3. They have notorious uptime.

Of course they have talented engineers... it would be a surprise if one of the worlds most popular websites didn't.

That doesn't change the facts that they continue to look and function like they're straight out of 2005 (does their search even work yet?), lack a semi decent mobile experience, and have contributed essentially nothing to the technical community in their entire history.
Smart TV's are only for stupid people. If you have one, unplug it from the internet, this removes the smartness. Add back your own smartness with a "NUC" kind of computer. Now you have a dumb TV and a smart owner.
>If the parenthetical read "even women!" that would not be perceived as a minute poke at the female ego. Commentary would be at least an order of magnitude louder/more inflamed.

Come now. Far worse things are said about women all over the web all the time.

And the point is the double standard. When women are outraged about toxic male behavior that leads to sexual harassment, violence, rape culture, keeps them out of employment in certain fields, etc, they're derided and dismissed as radical feminist man-hating social justice warriors engaged in mob outrage and misogynistic witch-hunts.

When men are outraged about literally anything, no matter how trivial (and this is very trivial), it's always perfectly justified.

From the title one would assume they are no longer translating their site in Spanish which of course is not the case, rather than had a site run from Mexico City that didn't prove financially viable. "Moving forward, editors will continue to translate signature journalism into more than a dozen languages — including Spanish, which will continue to appear at www.nytimes.com/es — as part of our core mission, and we will increase investment in the expansion of these broader translation efforts.

This change does not affect our coverage of Latin America, which will remain robust with dedicated staff based in Medellin, Mexico City and Rio de Janeiro."
Maybe this is more about outrage culture (being upset over relatively small things like microagressions rather than "real problems", often argued to be a fallacy of relative privation, unless the small things are not a problem at all or the argument is that the response is disproportional to the magnitude of the problem) than about whether an SJW is of a feminist or some other persuasion. Some disagree that SJWs are necessarily feminist or vice versa. A lot of these terms aren't exactly clearly defined.

The argument could have been a lot clearer and less confrontational. At least it seems more consistent than anti-feminists being "reactionary" for the old times where we could make jokes about women but being offended by jokes about men.

>I see nothing stupid with using quantum mechanics and nuclear science in this context.

why don't you?

Nothing in any of the examples show anything remotely related to either fields.

It's a brash leap to judgement to presume that something unexplained is using phenomena that we're well aware of -- and it's a brash leap to presume that given a video of flight dynamics that one can understand the technological progression of history required to do so.

Example : If it was an alien, how do we know they didn't purchase the technology? How do we know that another race didn't gift them something beyond their comprehension?

If we're making big leaping judgements given small amounts of evidence, why not write an entire history and lore for these aliens that must exist, given that we saw an unidentified aircraft?

It's ridiculous to jump to such lengths when a much more reliable and proven answer to the question of unidentified aircraft is : 'Military experiment'.
"But a resource and its endpoint can be thought of as the same thing, in that the endpoint is the resource's canonical URI."

After reading your description, "a resource is an endpoint" still seems wrong. Perhaps just lazy, but laziness in technical docs gets confusing fast.

I personally run CurveDNS but here is a quick and dirty script to show how DNSCrypt might be used to encrypt DNS traffic between stub resolvers or caches and authoritative servers, if authoritative DNS providers used dnscrypt-wrapper. To demonstrate we can pretend we are an authoritative DNS provider, e.g., a root server.

See code, documentation and examples at https://github.com/Cofyc/dnscrypt-wrapper

# send end-to-end encypted DNS queries to/from an authoritative DNS server
# send query for example.com to root server using stub resolver (drill)
# authoritative DNS server (e.g., tinydns, nsd, etc.) listening on 127.0.0.1:53, serving root.zone from ftp.internic.net
# dnscrypt-wrapper listening on 127.0.0.1:530
# dnscrypt-proxy listening on 127.0.0.1:5300
# could have dnscache or unbound forwarding to the dnscrypt-wrapper listening address

You don't have to repeat corporate nonsense-speak that makes them sound like less of a failure. If they are selling the unit then write that they are selling it. Stop letting your source put their dumb spin on it.
I think the main difference between choosing to hire contractors as opposed to permanent staff is if the work they are being hired to do is something that is a short duration project with a highly specific skill set. For example you might want to create an app for your business and hiring someone specialized in this would make sense. They could likely do it more efficiently and maintaining it later would not require such a high skill level and could be handled as part of the duties of one of your permanent staff.

I keep reading the NYT out of a 20+ year habit but the level of editorializing, even in news that should be straightforward to report, has become so overt I can barely stand it anymore. Do I like Trump? No, not really, but living in a 2 party system there is 0 percent chance that either puppet at the top of the major parties represents even a fraction of my views.

Trump is not the literal devil but reading the NYT you would be forgiven for believing so. There is not one thing a Republican can do that is positive, and even Biden seems to be an enemy.

I guess I’ve moved on from mainstream reporting but it seems like it’s the NYT that changed rather than me.

Really? Can you get a commercial display with the image quality (4k OLED) and feature support (Dolby Vision HDR) of the LG C8?
Wait what??

Your third example could just as easily and correctly be:

int const **ptr;
^^^^^ this is what is const

True, it is a special case when there is more than one item in the declarator list as to how const applied, but that by itself is secondary to where const goes.

Const qualifies the object. Whether the const is applying to the "int" in some way or is an independent type specifier that applies to each declarator is pretty philosophical. I say it's the latter. The fact is, the very allowance of a cv qualifier in the specifier list introduces an inconsistency or imbalance.

Ultimately this is one of the ultimate bikeshedding argument. There's no right answer, and appeals to spoken language aren't particularly compelling when bikeshedding C of all languages. This isn't AppleScript.

I'm not even terribly interested in this particular point. I'm more interested in quashing the notions that bikeshedded opinions of language syntax have some divine providence. It's just bullshit.

WebODM – User-friendly, application and API for processing aerial imagery
I will never buy a "smart TV". For one thing, I don't have much use for any TV. What I have is a large display attached to a media server. It doesn't have Internet access, except when I need to update packages. If there's something that I want to watch on it, I just use a DVD, or get a copy of the file.
Don’t let your TV access the internet at all.

Smart TV interfaces are almost uniformly worse than set top boxes (one or more of: bad UI, slow CPU, weird quirks, few updates) so you should avoid it anyway.

The current Apple TV (which I cite only because of familiarity) has a great UI, every major app, and robust HDMI-CEC support so you might never have to touch your TV’s remote again.

And Apple respects your privacy.
I take your point but it’s not binary - in the sense that I have strong doubts that the MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration) of antibiotics would touch much of a colonisation in a neonate should it be present.

Having a single dose of abx in an adult doesn’t kill everything; the intent of a pre-surgical dose of abx is because evidence shows it significantly reduces post op infections; and the antibiotic used is active primarily against gram positives (cephazolin 1-2g) whereas Pelomonas puraquae is a gram negative anerobic rod and more than likely not going to be touched, even if the MIC is reached (and my experience of obstetric theatres is the antibiotic usually (80% of the time) goes in only minutes before skin incision.

So; a couple of things:

- presuming no contamination in the study, the primary coloniser of neonates appears to be a gm -ve rod

- antibiotics given for caesars are active against gm +ves /aerobes

So while there may be a mechanism, it’s not highly plausible in light of the other known mechanisms affecting Caesar births vs natural (ie bacterial microbiome pickup during traversal of the birth canal) about which there is significant evidence regarding immune priming

I'm not sure why anyone in the Navy would say that to them, especially anyone with any type of engineering or science background. But if they did I'd be happy to shift the accountability, somewhat. Somewhat because politicians should also have BS meters, so holding their feet to the fire should also help tune this BS meter. Because let's be real, this is just absurd and should set off tons of BS meters.
Do not live 20 miles from work. With that said, you may have extraordinary circumstances that absolutely require you to live 20 miles from your employment. No problem. Statistically, that would place you in the vast minority of people. As long as the massive majority of people that can very realistically replace their commute with public transit and/or other options do so, the problem is solved immediately. There will always be a small minority of people that have to drive a car to work. We are not talking about that tiny minority of people. As I said, we only need 30% and this problem is solved immediately. I repeat, immediately.
other way around: it assumes most non-firefox users are on 64 bit, which is a pretty reasonable assumption given Apple's hard push for 64 bit (so that's the OSX-ers covered) and Chrome's "we've made finding the 32 bit installer _really hard_ because we don't want you to use it" move. I'm sure there are some 32 bit users in both segments, but far less than you'll find in firefox land.
Two Arrested for Extortion of Startup Cryptocurrency Company
I think I checked 3 weeks ago, right about the time Connexion was saying they were lighting their first household in the next couple days. I MIGHT be misremembering the $100 gigabit, because they had a staggering number of offers (many different speed options with many different terms), but I think I recall there being a 400Mbps@$60/mo offer and the gigabit was $90 or $99 with a year commitment.

Would be VERY entertaining if they dropped it by $30-40 in the weeks since...

I was thinking about getting one of the lower levels because I'm on an older 120Mbps plan, which started out at $60 for a year or two, then jumped up. I'm not expecting Connexion any time soon, because of my location, but then I realized I need a new cable modem to get the new offer, so most of the saving over a year would be eaten up ($130 for a Surfboard).

Then the roads a block away started getting marked for utility locates. Hmm, I should ask one of my neighbors how crazy utility locates are, he works for a company that does utility locates...

What evidence do we have that these phenomena are strictly natural?

There are some ingenious explanations in this thread of how you could create something like this effect with known technology.

If we don't a priori eliminate it on the grounds it is impossible (as a Christian, I do not, but many here do), I imagine that supernatural beings trolling humans (especially modern scientific reductionists) could look a lot like this and is also a plausible explanation.

If you have a grudge against the concept of the supernatural, maybe think of it as "graduate students got drunk and starting messing with the Earth-universe simulation".

You are making a different claim than the parent. Their point is that simply from a scheduling perspective, and stipulating some adverse reaction from some vaccine, simultaneous vaccination maximizes the likelihood that you're going to experience that reaction at that specific time.

Your argument is that your kids feel crappy after they're vaccinated... so you get them vaccinated in 3 different stages. No matter what your brother says, the research appears to demonstrate that you're not improving your kid's experience; in fact, it seems like, if the parent comment is right, what you're really doing is maximizing the number of days they'll be uncomfortable, if they happen to have adverse reactions to more than one of the vaccines.

The thing we seem to know from the research is that simultaneous vaccination doesn't tax the immune system in such a way that a reaction to any one vaccine is more likely. Vaccinate all at once, or in 6 separate appointments: the number of reactions will be the same.
