If we're talking about SWIFT transfers, it's probably the same in Europe. The only difference is that in Europe there's SEPA, which is readily accessible by consumers, fast and cheap.
Responding late, but yeah, you raise a valid point.

The difference to me is in the purpose of the two facilities. A toilet is there for the employees' physical needs and more or less no other purpose. A computer is there primarily to do business work on. The company has a clear need to be involved in how that computer is used in several ways, such as maintaining its security, monitoring its performance, making sure it isn't misused, etc. They can afford you some privacy, but only on a best-effort basis because it's not reasonable to be entirely hands off.

Ask HN: How can I make my lack of education less unappealing to employers?
It's been a huge trope for a while now about how you dont have to (or even in some cases shouldn't) go to school and get a CS degree to be a developer, but I deeply regret not going for a number of reasons, but have mixed experiences personally with interviewing. I dont currently live in a tech hub (would like to work my way toward one) and while I've been able to find work, it's always been difficult and I always feel like I come out underpaid from jumping in the first offer I get. I've interviewed at both tech companies (startups, etc.) and (mostly) non tech companies and my education eventually comes up in the interview as theres no section on my resume. I've had recruiters/ interviewers visibly or audibly display disappointment when I mention I'm self taught and on occasion have had interviews or phone screens cut short because "this position requires a degree" despite "sounding really good for the role". Just minutes before. I have a couple years of professional experience on top of contributions to large open source projects and years of hobbyist work, but its proven to still be an issue.

Is there anything I can do or any way I can market myself to beat this sort of issue?

The US census counts the suburbs as urban. I don't believe most people referring to "city-folk" are referring to people in the suburbs.

As it turns out, journalists aren’t immune to subconscious bias, incompetence, and plain old bribes. So what’s the difference between journalists and me? I agree that it’s a dirty job and someone’s gotta do it, but journalists aren’t the answer.
So, as a full-time practitioner in the space with multiple decades of experience, one among many that read and comment on HN, I'm just going to say that ASVS has essentially no currency whatsoever in serious application security practices (like, the practices run by clueful tech companies with large security teams, or NCC Group and any of its constituent companies, or, as far as I know, other large-ish consulting practices like Bishop Fox or Gotham).

I appreciate that the documents are helpful as appeals to authority to win dumb arguments and am not saying you shouldn't do that! But it is weird for me to hear that people outside my field take ASVS especially seriously.

I am not particularly opposed to income based taxation. While I think asset based taxes are usually better than income based taxes, income based taxes are better than sales taxes or state run lotteries.

I personally think that how we handle unemployment and food stamps do more to disincentivize work than our income taxation.

Taxation is complex and tricky to do well. Unfortunately it is treated as a wedge issue and this prevents productive discussion and effective policy making.

This isn't really the case.

First, to talk about the place I know best, cities in the UK outside London are pretty expensive too. The UK has a disproportionate share of the world's expensive cities, despite being a relatively middle-income country. Demand isn't rising fast, it is just impossible to build (usually due to "environmental" planning regulations). That is an unforced error.

Second, there are examples of large cities that don't have these issues. Berlin is probably one of the most well-known examples, they had a ton of public housing. They started breaking some of these buildings up, and guess what...rents are going up.

Third, it is worth getting some perspective on this. There are cities that have almost no land that have managed much higher growth. Property in Singapore, for example, is expensive by international standards but, given per capita incomes and given the population density, they have actually not done badly (particularly when you look at access instead of average price). That is equally true of China (some cities in China have gone for 0 to millions of people...this makes the growth in most Western cities look flaccid). You could even say that New York has managed this reasonably well too (there has been investment in transport infrastructure at least, which is another cause of rising prices in some cities).

It is hard to generalise about this because policy is often made locally. But I think it is also clear that part of the problem is local policy causing a problem in aggregate. That is systemic and unrelated to demand.

In this case, the complete and correct information was provided by some random people on Reddit, not "journalists".

And one answer to your second question could be: money. Professionals need to generate (exactly) 60 minutes of news every night (minus time for commercials), and have it be entertaining enough to get people to watch (so they can sell more commercials). Amateurs providing random facts on the internet are not dependent on other corporations to generate income, or daily TV/newspaper deadlines.

Thought experiment: if we didn't have a profession called "journalism" today, and free worldwide publishing already existed (i.e., the internet), would we wish that they existed? Would people be saying "For the sake of our democracy, we need to pay these random Reddit fact checkers a good salary"?

This is the kind of idiotic thinking you get with Libertarianism. They're thinking, simplistically, that "competition is good", but the problem is that they're already in competition: in your case, the bank is already competing against many other banks out there. In Sears' case, they were already competing against Kohl's, Home Depot, Best Buy, etc. Internal competition might reduce a little waste and get people more motivated, but it isn't made for when considering the outside competition.

Another example I can think of is Microsoft under Ballmer; they operated that way to a certain extent. It didn't work out too great for them either, but they were a monopoly of sorts, so they had the luxury of being able to operate that way without it killing them.
> redux state is immutable and updated atomically.

Immutability certainly makes it less harmful, but it still means that a function in one area of the codebase can modify the global state and affect a completely different area of the codebase.

Atomicity is basically a meaningless buzzword in this situation, given JavaScript doesn't have parallelism.[1]

> When you're just dealing with functions and data

When you're just dealing with functions and data, you aren't using Redux, so really anything you have to say after that isn't relevant.

At the end of the day, you can make all these mistakes yourself if you want, but you'd be better served by listening to the programmers of the past and learning from their mistakes instead.

[1] What you're actually talking about is the fact that the entire transition is executed in the same event, which isn't the same thing as atomicity, but is actually somewhat useful because it works around the horrible things JS programmers often do that make it difficult to tell what order state transitions will be executed in, despite being in a single-threaded environment. However, the fact that it enables inserting state transitions into utterly untraceable code is hardly a point in Redux's favor if you want your code to be traceable in the first place.

$100k in student loans @ 4% and a 10 year pay off period. That's over $70k net pay in Philadelphia. I'd imagine you could certainly afford to buy a home after a short period of time saving for a down payment. If the dual income household is over $200k gross then it's just poor financial decision making.
If I'm poor or middle class, I can aspire to have merit, and thereby to rise in the world - if "merit" really means merit, not "connections" or "money". But if I'm poor (including in social capital) and have talent, effort, and ambition, but the key to making it is connections rather than merit, I'm just locked out, and there's nothing I can do.

I think those on the outside would prefer merit.

Enjoy life outside of work? Look, I enjoy my work and it's pretty meaningful work that affects people in real ways.

But I work to live, not live to work. My job is a means to an end, that end being to have a fulfilling life that doesn't revolve around what I do for a living.

Because of that, I find the quest to climb the corporate ladder has lost it's appeal. I'm cool staying at my current, well-paying, work from home job until I retire. I don't want to be running a company, I want to be running my life.

To add another couple data points:

I am substantially younger, make exactly 100k/yr live within commuting distance of a grossly overpriced city full of people I want nothing to do with (read: expensive urban area known for tech and medicine) and made 90k/yr when I bought my house. I live in an city, not a nearly rural suburb, but it's not a rich city (thank god) but it has everything I need. I'm paying a few hundred dollars a month on debt, have a similarly sized discretionary budget, am maxing out my 401k and slowly building savings. The schools aren't great but they aren't bad, not my problem yet anyway.

My buddy who is a teacher makes substantially less and has approximately the same situation but in a different slightly wealthier city and has a slightly smaller house.

The DB administrator at my last job who was in his late 20s and made about 100k had the same situation in yet a different city.

100k is not a crazy number in this area. If you are in a blue collar trade you can make 100k by putting in your years to get licensed (BS gate keeping requirements make it impossible to get licenses/certs in most trades in this state without working several years) you can commute into that rich overpriced city that shall remain nameless and make 100k.

The house across the block from me is on the market for ~200k. 150k on up seems to be the going rate for a turnkey single family house around here depending on size and condition. These aren't crazy prices. They're just not a neighborhood your snooty coworkers will approve of. My house was 150k but needed 20k of siding (screw that, next time I'm taking the week off from work, buying the staging and doing it my damn self for a fraction of the price) on day 1 and has never been updated inside.

If you want to own a home and are willing to work for it you can own a home. You just can't own one in a neighborhood where everyone is richer than you.

>Live below your means, take advantage of where you live, and maintain a simple life. Good things come to those who wait.

Fully agree here. Simple life is key. You can't drive a nice car and go out drinking all the time and all those other things that cost money. You can do a few of them but you've gotta choose.
I live in London. I'm not on 100K, however my salary is higher than 90% of the UK's population.If I'd compare our family income,we are better off than 75% of the country's households.These are just the stats. All 3 of us live in a one bedroom,rented flat in a decent area. We wouldn't even get a mortgage for the flat we live in (£300K)...The neighbors bought a house next door for £1M. Only pensioners and businessmen own properties on my street,the rest are renting. So realistically,unless I start making 50% more than I do now, there's no way this will ever change. I guess I should start looking at those remote Salesforce jobs in Bay area...

It might look like c++ but I can't say it 'feels' the same. The lack of header files in D immediately jumps to mind. D's module system is totatlly different from C++'s preprocessor. Ranges and slices are a big part in D programming that's a fair bit different than the way things are usually done in C++. Interfaces, Classes, structs are handled differently.

The similarities are more surface deep once you start learning more about the different features and tools D offers.
Yes it will. In fifteen years when Miyazaki is gone, they'll end up having to stream the content in order to have revenue.

There is no heir to Miyazaki at Ghibli. In my opinion, the closest director to Miyazaki I know of is Mamoru Hosoda, and he's at another studio. Ironically, he was supposed to direct Howl's Moving Castle but they decided his direction wasn't Miyazaki enough and so they split over creative differences. I think this is why Miyazaki keeps coming back from retirement.

The one guy who should have sat in that chair was run off. The other guy who should have been eligible was Miyazaki's son, but their relationship is strained. Clearly his skill was in animation, not parenting. His son has a very different style. More different I think than Hosada's.

So either there's going to be a merger at some point, or their revenue will shift more and more to their back catalog. That's a different kind of management team, and it seems like those sorts have absolutely no problem taking money for distribution rights.
All of these options people are presenting are not realistic for most workers. Contracting, starting your own company, and working at the same place for the rest of your life are generally not advisable (Or even doable!).

It's not just that the elite made their values the values that everyone else holds. Everyone else valued competence in the elite even without the elite "making its own values everyone's". Competence among the elite is something the elite claim, but it's something the non-elite want, for their own good.

You can argue whether it should or should not be illegal but in many countries of Europe (probably except the UK) not being registered with gov't in any way whatsoever is explicitly illegal.
>There is a fundamental, irreconcilable tension between the need for people to be able to protect themselves against abusive governments and the need for governments to be able to catch criminals.

Aren't these the same thing to the technology? To someone labeled a criminal, the government doing so is an abusive government. To a government that considers itself right, those who don't follow the rules are criminals.

We each have our own personal views on what should and should not be allowed which we judge individual cases with, but technology does not have a sense of morality to make such judgment as to when the criminal is in the right and when the government is in the right.

I think people far too often try to humanize computer algorithms with notions of right and wrong. The technology to avoid and oppressive regime is the exact same technology that protects the horrible person from justice.

Semantics aside, I'm off the opinion that competition and oversight from the internet in the news arena is an overall good thing.

Of course we need journalists, but it's just as good that we have some independent fact checkers that also have a platform to stand on.

>it really feels like a big "fuck you" to anyone who would bother to shop at their stores. Nobody wants to do business with a shop that's trying to bait and switch them with deceptive "deals".

You'd be surprised; there's always a bunch of suckers out there. And some businesses are able to get away with a big "FU" to customers: just look at Apple and their AirPods (see articles about terrible battery life, inability to replace battery, high price, etc.). But Sears isn't Apple, and there's only so many suckers left willing to shop there, and they're all probably elderly.
