To be precise, I meant to say the median software engineer at Amazon. My parent comment had called out "crying software engineers" and anyone who draws a paycheck from Amazon, and I was responding in that context.

I'll be honest and admit that I'm not sure what working experiences are like for the warehouse/delivery guys. However, neither does the person I'm responding to. Given how completely wrong they are in describing the median tech worker's experience, they have no credibility when it comes to warehouse workers either.

With 500,000+ employees, you can write an entire book of horror stories at Amazon, and you could still be describing only the outliers. You really can't form any judgements without using random-sampling techniques or mass-employee surveys.
"The world is very large, and cities are a very small portion of it. The land we set aside for animals should be outside of cities, where far more land is available at far less impact to people"

Perform a thought experiment in which human systems are part of nature, not separate from it; that land isn't set aside for nature, but that nature is everywhere. This frame will encourage systematic thinking of the sort that at least more realistically contextualizes this land-filling exercise, and at most entirely invalidates the ideas underlying the practice.

To decimate such productive, sustaining landscapes is reckless, short-sighted, and perhaps even cruel––not only to natural systems which depend on them, but to us, who in turn depend on those systems.

Late reply, but it was a bug using XLA GPUs to add concurrency to the training process. Maybe someone figured it out or fixed it, but I've moved on already.
>But sure keep on claiming I am the one who is making anecdotal claims

You are. This doesn't mean they are for sure wrong, but you are looking at the success of one school system and saying that means that the start time does not matter. For all you know, that school system could change to starting at 8:30 and rank even higher. It is a textbook anecdotal claim.

>The study you refer to compares 2, TWO schools and doesn't come to any conclusion that contradicts mine in fact it support it. More sleep means better performance most of all.

That study doesn't compare two schools, it compares two classes in both of the schools against each other. This let's them better isolate the start time as the variable responsible for the change. It also references other studies with similar results. And it does disagree with you, the later start time was associated with kids getting 30 more minutes of sleep.

No. If there are children in any of these encampments, I would say that they need to especially be broken up. Homelessness in modern America is to a great degree elective. People need to be harassed off the streets and into shelters for their own welfare -- especially children -- or involuntarily committed.
Yahoo Mail already recycles inactive accounts after 12 months. So if you haven't logged in for a year, they'll unsubscribe you from all the mail they can find in your inbox and delete all your mail, then let someone else sign up with your username, receive password reset emails for your accounts, etc.
Caps are way more common, but every monday morning the front stoop at my old office would have a handful of used needles on it. I suppose the hyperbole would be implying "hundreds" of dirty needles all in one place. When I walk to work, I see many, but rarely are there more than 2-3 in one spot.
Yes you would need to use our components because they have meaningful logic when it comes to building an app experience.

Can't make the judgement call on whether it's worth you moving to Ionic vs React Native, but Ionic would be a fit if you prefer a "web-native" approach, using the traditional react dev experience around react-dom, and want to target Electron and the web as a Progressive Web App with the same code.
It definitely affects people see see really hardcore porn when young. It gives them a very distorted view of what real sex is meant to be like.
Exactly this. You could not even pay me to raise my two kids in the city. What the city offers to someone in their 20s does nothing for those in their 30s spending most of their time working or child rearing (and I work from home).

I require space, comfort, and convenience for family, not eatery and nightlife variety. Proximity to interstates and international airports is also desirable though for work and vacation travel.

Why do people only picture someone born with a disability when they think of accessibility?

Any one of us could be temporarily or permanently disabled at the drop of a hat. You don't make you decision if where you live with that in mind though based on your comment.

Accessible design doesn't care if you broke your ankle and only have mobility issues until next month, it still helps you.

People have this weird mentality that accessibility is optional because it doesn't affect them. It doesn't affect you until it does.

That's not close to the only reason you should care, but even someone as needlessly cynical as you can at least appreciate that angle of it.

Yes — if there were real competition between multiple app stores, some of which provided better systems of vetting than others (both for users and for developers), then the kinds of stores that had these policies would die off.
So... what is next? Mentioning/linking patreon profile in YouTube videos could also be bannable if one disable ads in their videos?
No thanks. If I'm donating to a good cause, I don't want the App Mafia taking a 30% cut. That just reinforces this bad behavior.

> But knocking out all donations using a big ban hammer is not acceptable here

To be fair they didn't. You can accept donations if you're an actual charity (like Wikipedia is). The line they drew isn't perfectly fair, no, but it's not a full ban hammer, either.
Article is espousing the benefits of asynchronous communication. If the expectation is that I respond within a minute or so, then it is synchronous.

Can you suggest a better way to use IM that doesn't require me to respond quickly?

I'm fine with IM for sending over quick URL's, etc while doing a live debug or something. But if you just have a "quick question", email me if not urgent or come to my cube if it is. If you are located far away, call me. Both email and phone are more efficient for simple questions. IM is in the unhappy place where it's worse than both.
Your comment reminds of “Design for everyday things” book. He talks about Affordances and Signals.

I agree with you, sound can be ok as a signal that something has happened. It is fine with some users, but annoys others (beeps when a camera auto focuses, always a split opinion. Some people like it and some don’t).
that's chump change compared to sugar (=> diabetes at $225bil per YEAR) and alcohol (destruction upon others via accidents as well as chronic health problems).

so what is your take on those? should they be controlled substances? because it certainly seems we need to have a discussion at the level of the nation about how we're going to pay for universal health care consumed by those taking part in these behaviors going forward if this is going to realistically work.

Knowing what you can and can't do with an object is the time consuming part. Once you know that answer, the writing is relatively insignificant.
This was mostly during the vietnam era the government has been better about that but doctors freely prescribing drugs that destroy lives is a much bigger issue. Pooling data from 2002 to 2012, the incidence of heroin initiation was 19 times higher among those who reported prior nonmedical pain reliever use than among those who did not. A survey by the United States Conference of Mayors found that 68 percent of cities reported that substance abuse was the largest cause of homelessness for single adults. Substance abuse was also reported as one of the top three causes of family homelessness by 12 percent of cities.

Though easy to phrase it as a moral problem, I think the matter requires an unemotional analysis. At first hearing it looks like shutting down avenues by which open source app developers can gather donations, but perhaps the measure was targeted at shady money laundering operations.

Perhaps the right thing to do is for Google to offer a discounted cut to legit open source apps, from the usual 30% to a lesser value or entirely waive it off so that they can still seek contributions through Google play billing.
It's unlikely that GitHub subjects themselves to legal risk by allowing developers to link to Patreon [1]. I think this issue has more to do with Google's priorities, than what is legally possible.

A young teacher still getting their masters and fighting for tenure will probably put in some work, yes. Young people in any profession will try to get out ahead of their peers early on.

The idea that most teachers are attending conferences or blogging about teaching all summer is odd though.

I come from a family of teachers. My mother started teaching later in life, got her Masters and was hustling when I was a teenager. After a decade teaching, I don't think she spends even a minute thinking about school during the summer.

My dad is now retired and has probably the best sort of pension imaginable in this country. Certainly nothing like that safety net will ever exist for me. I can't really compare his experience though because it was a different generation of teachers. He was very involved with his union too.

Teaching just seems like a varied profession based on where you are. I hear and believe the talk about teachers being undervalued, underpaid, overworked etc. But my family has done very well for themselves back in NY, with a lot less uncertainty than a lot of other professions.
> Mr Gohmert explained: "We can take safe haven in this suit, we'll seek refuge in here, we'll keep the body at 8 psi (pound force per square inch) for a certain period of time, then we'll drop down to 4.3 psi and we can remain there for six days."

> "That's no small feat to be able to live in a volume that's only a couple of inches bigger than your body for six whole days."

This means one can expect to expel solids and fluids while in this suit, and perhaps take in nutrients, if one is "stuck" in this suit due to emergencies?

Why don't they show the insides of the suit? How long does it take to put on? What technology is inside of it?

It's kind of pointless just to show the colors of the suit and someone bending down to pick up rock (albeit I realize this is an accomplishment from prior suits... but I cannot appreciate the work to make that happen).

The difference is that your BBC viewing habits, if exposed in a massive hack, are (probably) not that much use to a blackmailer.
I would like to be your friend.
I did say I had a fantastic model with Tensorflow. I gave up after a while because I didn't have time to hack on that stuff. I wouldn't mind learning to and trying it out, but the nature of the small company meant I needed to find a solution sooner. Now I have comparable results with Pytorch and it's easier to work with. That's a win/win in my book.
>Can my IDE really tell me all the ways I can use an Integer? I don't think so.

Porn normalizes sexuality in the same way dog fighting toughens youths. The viewer experiences sex / violence completely removed from its context (since there is an intensely inter-subjective nature to both). Without counter-teaching external to the medium the presentation of these acts teaches the viewer that these acts exist for the sake of pleasing the viewer, and for no other reason.

> [porn] might provide information to those who may otherwise not get it

Porn doesn't teach you how to have sex, it teaches you that sexual feelings are a commodity you can take.

So on eway to think of a hash table/map is a set of tuples of <key, value>. Imagine we extend that to <insertion timestamp, key, value>. All of your conventional mapping methods (get/has/put) work on the key and value and ignore the timestamp. But anything that relies on iteration takes advantage of the timestamp[1], and iterates in timestamp order (or, in fact how this is normally done, is that you have a sparse array/map of <key, pointer> and a dense array of <timestamp, value>. Whenever you insert a new key/value, you always append value to the end of the dense array (so that array is dense), and the key is hashed as normal, but the value in the hash table is a pointer into the dense array where the timestamp/value pair is stored. So internally, get is

return (map[hash(key) % map_size])->value

or approximately that (I haven't written C in a while).

Then iteration over objects in the array is consistent: you just iterate over the dense array. Removal from the dense array is done by tombstoning, and possibly eventual compaction. This is essentially how python's current hash table implementation works.

IIRC, if you're table can assume only insertions, this actually becomes really, really nice as a persistent data structure, since you can replace the backing vector with a backing linked list, and you only really lose out on iteration speed. Then you further extend that by swapping the linked list to a tree, and you share the entire backing structure.

[1]: And you can use an increment-only mutation counter instead of a timestamp to make this pure.
I think UK did not get highrise development right. Building residential highrises far away from workplaces,social facilities, and no good transit pretty much defeats the purpose of building highrises.

In other words, UK cities with "depressive" highrise communities unknowingly copied Moscow suburbs.

That's an interesting take. I don't think most people have an issue with a nomadic lifestyle, as long as you can afford it, and it doesn't interfere with other people's lifestyle choices.

I think those latter two points are rare, but I might be mistaken. How many homeless have a job and pay taxes, but choose to be homeless?

I think at the end of the day it's about having the ability to afford yourself and care for yourself. And we tend to believe that if an adult doesn't have this ability (as opposed to the opportunity), then it is a handicapped individual, either physically or mentally handicapped in some way. That's why I think most people believe homeless which aren't suffering from the lack of this ability most likely just lack the opportunity.

There is a public nuisance aspect to people who are living on the street or in forests on land they don’t own/rent. Even mobile vehicles can be problematic if they are parked on the street without access to decent facilities.

I don’t think many would have a problem with someone who lacked a permanent home but setup camp or their vehicle on a formal campground with reasonable hygiene facilities so they weren’t pooping in the street and we weren’t walking over their tents.

Why does scale suddenly warrant microservices when we’ve had countless examples of successful sites that scale without them? I agree microservices seem to be a reasonable decision to make if you find yourself with 100 engineers.

The YPG is marxist offshoot of the PKK. Turkey (an actual member of NATO) will never voluntarily let them establish an independent homeland in Syria.

It may technically be true initially but ecotourism is generally needed to preserve it economically and from a game theory perspective essentially.

* If it isn't human inhabited why not take it?
* If it is human inhabited why not try to raise their standard of living by development and exploitation of natural resources?
If there was some sort of payment for holding unspoiled environments it would have compliance and inspection issues not to mention funding and distribution.
* However if it is an asset with tourism then "poaching" harms future income and they have incentive to keep it beautiful and clean for real. It may lead to some "manicuring" like removing pests and making trails but biodiversity would be far more preserved.
* Those who are already developed may also have the local ecosystems as an effective "service" or amenity from quality of life. Needless to say that is a "late game" option only.

I think an asynchronous workplace (remote or not) is mostly a good one as people tend to be more effective without interruption.

Anyways, I think a big barrier to this dream are the tools that can promote and sustain asynchronicity.

It's really hard to keep communication open and job responsibilities/deliverables clear without being mircomanage-y. Lots of leaders will have to give up control - which is going to be really hard, to say the least. Software tools will need to be security-blankets for managers as much as performance trackers for employees. Give them a little pat on the head that "it's all ok". That's going to be hard to accomplish.
