Yes, that's probably true. Just because I say repressive in a pejorative tone doesn't mean the people who live in those states are bothered by it. They may prefer not to have to hear some of the speech I find regrettable but a necessary cost of freedom. (I think there's a very good argument for drawing the line where the US does and not somewhere else, but that's a different matter.)
The scary thing is Boeing has zero incentive to work differently. The US government will bail them out if push comes to shove because they are the only major domestic commercial airline manufacturer left.

Sure, but you either are or are not willing to make those changes, and you presumably already have made them to the extent that you're willing. Whatever burden ends up being imposed based on your consumption habits simply is what it is.

Flip side: not enough people would put up with going through a "serious" teacher ed program to fill the demand, unless pay went way up. Not even close to enough.
Find and replace is laborious in VIM...

https://www.linux.com/tutorials/vim-tips-basics-search-and-r...

In Notepad++ it's easier to do for me... I use Find & Replace VERY frequently as I inherit apps developed by others, Some developers don't need to use it at all because they work on a Single Page App...

We're truly in the era of "If it works for me it's great for everyone", which is truly a bad posture to adopt, because now developers dictate features based on opinion rather than research, polling, testing and facts like they used to in the early days. This is why apps, like Android dialer become annoyingly dysfunctional, because it's made and tested on a small group who have 2 hands rather than also on people who only have one hand (and can't afford 2 clicks to get to a keypad as easily).

CLI has been around forever in terms of development. I understand there are use cases where it's highly useful, but in a world where development should be getting LESS complex, it's a dinosaur that preserves job security because of a huge learning curve.

As an architect I frequently work with non-technical people, and using abstract tools to do my work only complicates my ability to get them to understand what I do. Things should be getting simpler, but they're not.

The reason is that each cable in its own package is a separate SKU, purchased from a separate supplier, and tossed one-per on an assembly line that is filling the box you finally received. I suspect that if, say, samsung or nintendo was told to stop putting bags on every single cable, they'd just add a step to their assembly line for snipping open the existing bags and tossing them in the garbage.

The real solution will be (as usual) more complex than you'd guess at first, and I don't have a good idea for where you'd start. Maybe find the point in the supply chain where these baggies are first introduced and add a tax on them at that point?
I think if happiness was a function of money, then it would very much look like the sigmoid / logistic function. You have a linear region where there's a very dramatic relationship between money and happiness (a $100k salary makes life so much easier than a $30k salary), but there's very small difference at the different ends...a $5k salary will not improve your life much over a $500 salary, even though there's an order of a magnitude in difference - just in the same way that $50MM won't make you much happier than $500MM.

And this is something I feel is important, because people tend to compare extremes. It's always poor vs rich
I mean, you criticized a human interest story for not being something like a business school case study for how to build startups. My counterpoint was that human interest stories aren't meant to do that.

> I really don't think anyone seriously thinks money brings happiness or purpose.

I was commenting on the purpose piece of the message not happiness, and no if this was another "money didn't bring me happiness" piece I don't think it would have resonated as much as it did. Maybe we've all finally learned that above a certain threshold of wealth you won't be any happier, but to see a man feeling a bit lost without purpose despite creating so much wealth for himself (and not having inherited it) is surprising, which is why this is resonating.

Even Naval said a few weeks ago "Money does buy happiness, if you earned it," which is clearly not really true in this case. He missed the fact that money can actually remove purpose from your life, whether it was earned or not.

Hey, Original blog post author here.

What a lot of people don't understand is that you want it both. The resilience of Postgres and the speed of fetching from Redis.

You have data stored. You want to retrieve it as painlessly (shorter time, less CPU usage, less complexity, etc.) as possible. What are the options? How much faster is Redis? How much RAM is that going to eat up? Different tools have different properties. Run some tests to answer some of those questions. Don't just guess. Sure Redis is going to save some time, but how much? Do you know by heart?
There are also significant decreases in performance due to wear isn't due to the material itself, but also the change in geometry. For instance, when rain grooves wear down, they're not able to channel away as much water.
The teachers union in my city basically negotiated a deal for higher pay but the union would self fund their health benefits. It turned out to be a bad deal because over the years health care costs skyrocketed compared to the pay increases. What amazed me is some teachers are mentioning premiums higher than the individual market rates. So apparently they can't even negotiate good group premiums.

If this article was trying to depict this man as thuroughl vain and void of humanity it could not have done a better job.

He moved to Miami Beach to avoid paying taxes? This hundreds of millionaire couldn't just move to a place he liked because he was worried about his marginal tax rate?

He bought a house that's empty and has accoutrements for a lifestyle he doesn't have or plan to have. This is a person buying something that looks like what other rich people by because it's what he's supposed to do.

He's succeed and now is not just overwhelmed by the opportunities he can tackle but is paralyzed by a lack of struggle.

I see these articles over and over again about entrepreneurs and what they show me is that many are not successful because they are imaginative people full of passion and ideas. Rather they are like robots who can see and optimize some little piece of the economy. And by and large they never tire of working at their own little corner. They are different from normal people not in their vision but because they do not tire of bulldoging one very tiny little thing.

I know that's not all entrepreneurs but there are so many profiles like this and they do not make me empathize with these people. They send a shiver down my spine.

Good point!

> I can also see the benefit of removing the burden on the person performing the query to have to remember the details of the expression, or in the server case, not having to duplicate the expression across code bases.

You can do that also with a database view or function, which is my preference.

I prefer my tables to be fully normalized. Any computation or processing, I try to keep in views. This just helps my mind. Tables = hard data. Views = processed data. But maybe I'm just set in my ways. Calculated columns are in the SQL standard, after all, and have been implemented in other databases for some time. In special cases (heavy calculation + heavy reads) of course this feature makes a bit more sense.
That did exist in the US Northeast when I was a kid. Most everything we needed could be walked to. Walmart, Home Depot, and other chains eventually killed off all the walking distance mom and pop restaurants, grocery marts and shops.
Thin-film electronics would probably be the starting point. As far as I can tell, that industry is very concentrated on display, solar and "gimmick" electronics (think electronic tamper seals or marketing strategies.)

To make this device, you'd need:
- A battery breakthrough (hard)
- Flexible OLED and peripherals (easier)
- Flexible chips (hard but optional)
- High power efficiency or microfluidic cooling (hard depending on thickness.)

Depending on where you let the device be folded, if you had a small enough SoC, you could protect it from bending and hide it in the panel sections that don't have a seam. The trickier bit is raw power and thermals, which will be the bottleneck for the next few years.
> and I guarantee that the bandwidth used by this feature is rounding error for Google.

You're points are of course correct, but I want to note that bandwidth goes both ways. They may not care that they are wasting their own bandwidth - but they are wasting the users' bandwidth as well. If the page was kept open for some time on e.g. a metered connection, this could cause some annoying surprises.

From Google's perspective, the descisions make a lot of sense, but it's not simply cost/benefit, it's also not considering externalised cost.

This is Windows-only. The code claims to be userland but relies on kernel middleware. That is interesting, because the driver seems to be signed. If you've never looked at Windows kernel stuff, you'd probably be surprised at:

I remember first day doing some work as consultant with JPL for Cassini and a sim finished just before lunch and my collaborator says “huh, that’s interesting, the bug we have been reproducing for the last week suddenly disappeared! Case closed! Well let’s go...”. Being a naive youngster I say “wait, don’t we want to rerun the sim?? Maybe we need to tweak the parameters, etc, etc”

He shakes his head knowingly, says something to the effect of “no time for all that, son” and off we go.

In the end he was right, Cassini performed wonderfully, proof in the pudding and all that...but still can’t help think that it was in many ways a lot of lucky coin tosses!

I am a high school English teacher in a suburban district outside a large midwestern city. There is a large variance between how much work members of different subject areas bring home. I certainly have colleagues that work their 40 hours and don’t spend a minute more thinking about school. The nature of my work is different, and I typically work 50-60/week.

Also for reference, I have been working as a teacher for 6 years and make just shy of 43k.
Paid propaganda or not, I hold that these men have no teacher friends or family, or they would not have written this.

There's a shocking amount of incompetence and corruption in school admin. Sometimes it's hard to tell which is which.
> The fact that I could walk out of college with zero experience and only a degree, and earn $20K more than that working only 9-5 in the same city seems unfair (as a programmer).

So what? With many other degrees, you can walk out six figures in debt and land a job at McDonalds. Is that fair?

> But I have no idea how society decides salaries.

In the open market, it's (supposed to be) supply and demand. If salaries are high, that's a signal that there's too few people in the profession. Programmers are privileged for now, but lots of people are joining in.

Once supply outweighs demand, salaries will fall. Just wait for the next recession when the bullshit startup train will go off the rails.

Okay. But I contend that makes the whole log worth less because the short commit messages are often devoid of useful info. Granted, I don't have an email-based patch workflow; I look at logs on both GitHub and pulled in from the CLI. On GitHub, things are even worse because I have to constantly expand commits to see what actually changed.

In any event, I think teams should be free to adopt the workflow that works best for them without tools getting in the way. GitHub wrapping commit messages at 70 chars, even though I have more than plenty enough horizontal real estate, isn't helping anyone.

Ability to reason about and optimize algorithms and data structures (graphs, trees, etc) is key. C++ knowledge/experience strongly preferred.

We're hiring at different experience levels, from fresh undergrads to experts - for my specific position I would prefer someone who has done at least a couple of years of similar work, but as I mentioned there are several groups hiring.

The minimum valuation is 150M, and as for the number of employees hired, I would venture to say that they are trying to use it for PR purpose. Employees are a big cost center for a business (a few thousand can cost 100M a year or more) so it sounds like they really want to highlight all the favors they are doing for the world by employing so many people.
This is why languages such as D and Nim are interesting. They support both styles of development. You can always use the RAD style to get to something people like, optimize the fast paths, and still use RAD style on experimental features.

Dunno, they all do it though. I know school stats report the % of teachers with higher degrees and of course they all want those percentages to be higher. Possibly there are state incentives. Mostly it's just a bunch of people doing dumb crap without anyone having the power & motivation to fix it so they can all knock it off, which is a pretty common phenomenon, actually.

[EDIT] I mean to you wanna be the superintendent reporting that proportion of district teachers with master's degrees is up by seven percent since you started, or the one explaining that most of those degrees are bullshit and you don't care about it and neither should anyone else? Bear in mind most people have zero idea what teacher education looks like.
