> This development came at extraordinary cost for the org and, in the case of the people who were laid off, cost to people's careers.

Except the people who were laid off, if they have been there a while, got much deep knowledge than if they just glued together a bunch of AWS stuff.

Gluing together AWS stuff can get you a good job, but it's not the same as solving these sort of problems.

I'd rather spend 3 years working on this and get laid off than the way I spent my last 3. Guarantee I'd be in a much better spot in the job market too.

Instead I'm trying to figure out how the fuck I get my career back on track because I'm headed towards the sort of job I will hate every single day.
Really a polariser only cuts about 2 stops, so in conditions where a Kerr effect shutter makes sense, it likely doesn't matter.
This could easily be fronted by an Apple controlled CDN to avoid Tencent from getting the IP addresses.
How could they possibly do this? Is there a trace of true journalism alive today?
> They are compliance cars, and showpieces. Not an actual product line.

That's not the practical reality. Nissan has sold over 400,000 Leafs and they're still selling them:

False. That's exactly what Volkswagen are doing. Here are some marketing videos for the Porsche Taycan.

Yes it's becoming a bit of a mess.

I wanted to associate a file type with a program in Windows 10 recently, and I found at least 4 different menu items that lead to the same unhelpful modern screen. Unhelpful because it only let me pick 'App Store' Apps, not anything else I have installed. Some answers online suggested these very item as ways to go to the old screen but it looks like they closed that escape hatch.

I was having trouble because it was a 'special' file type (CMD) so the context menu didn't offer the Open With option, I suppose to save this clueless user from himself. So instead I dove into the registry and did a manual hack which will hopefully stick around between updates.
I wonder what percentage of factory farmed meat is devoted to the pet food industry. I love dogs and cats dearly, but I really hate what's happening to animals in factory farms. Unfortunately cats and dogs can't be vegetarian as far as I know. I also suspect that pet owners rationalize daily meat eating for themselves since their pets have to have it.

I agree. Mint has been my daily driver ever since Ubuntu dropped the ball.
I’m sorry but that seems pretty absurd. You don’t need to be a certain type of bot to pull the meta information. From an analytics standpoint it would also be beneficial. I’ve always had issues tracking how many people have shared an SMS referral link.
How do you balance avoiding this with wanting engineers who have ideas and agency?
Maybe it's a causal claim being challenged, not a statistical claim. What is a statistical claim anyway? No observation will disprove another observation.

I think the easiest answer: If it comes in a box or a bag with a list of ingredients, consider it processed.

Occasionally eating something that comes in that form is okay - so making pasta from a once a week won’t kill you ( at least not quick enough to matter). But if you find yourself opening a box or bag of something every night, you may want to think harder.

Just my opinion, of course.

I eat a diet consisting mostly of starches, fat, and protein (including red meat), with some fruits added on (and basically no vegetables). I have a small stomach and live an active lifestyle so I have to load up on carbs to avoid getting exhausted during sports / activities. I also just dislike vegetables.

I got a bloodwork done at my last medical appointment and it came back perfect. High good cholesterol, low bad cholesterol, all the fats, proteins, etc. in the best ranges. The doctor then proceeded to go over all the things I must be doing right to have such good bloodworks but the only things I was actually doing were not ingesting too much sugar and exercising a lot. On everything else my diet basically consisted of the opposite of what is recommended.
Yes I actually agree with verbosity, 10 second soundbytes have massively polluted the information ecology. I was just arguing against myself :|
This is the coolest response. :)

(You didn't by any chance sail around Cape horn in 2016? I met this really cool older couple in Central America who had been living at sea for 17 years.)

Reading all of the replies I realize that sometime between 2007 and 2012 I just gave up entirely on storing media locally. I don't watch movies (e.g. no cable or netflix), but I've been using spotify for a decade maybe? One response makes a good point: it is a waste of overall bandwidth to stream content.
Yeah I hate that file grouping feature in my Downloads folder.

Windows 10 overall is very stable but just a few days ago I did have Explorer crash in a new and interesting way like you say.

It went away and didn't come back as it usually does, so I started a new instance from the task manager. This instance seemed to be missing some kind of callback hook so when files in the directory changed it wouldn't update the display. So I would delete or paste a file, or make a new folder, and have to hit F5 to see it. If I didn't refresh then it also seemed to forget what folder it was in and paste into the wrong one, sometimes multiple times with one keypress.

It was very weird, but luckily Windows knows best and rebooted itself for an update when I went to sleep.
Is it possible that the study shows that high IQ people who bother to join a "high IQ society" tend towards higher mental and physical disorders, rather than high IQ people in general?
wrt flight cancelations, etc.

> I'm not even sure who makes that call: is it the pilots, or someone in a central office somewhere?

The relevant regulation is here,

https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/121.533

The "operational control" is jointly shared between the pilot in command and the aircraft dispatcher. In theory, either one can cancel the flight. In practice the dispatcher does it or a shift duty manager (who may not be actually performing dispatch duties) who is the "man behind the curtain" and oversees all flight operations during their dirty duty shift. Big carriers may have several managers, assigned per region (CONUS, Asia Pacific, Europe-Trans Atlantic, etc.) but the theory is the same.

[me: licensed dispatcher & former flight ops duty manager]
Another negative aspect of compensation I’ve thought about is that it could cause content creators, particularly political and religious/non-religious ones, from seriously exploring opposing views. Why make videos exploring opposing views when you are making thousands of dollars by giving your audience what it wants? It may increase bias, and limit the self development of not only the creator, but audience as well.
That sounds great. But that "each know that the other has their back" ends at divorce. And indeed, that vow ends with "until death do us part". So for it to actually mean anything, divorce would necessarily be impossible.

But divorce is ~50% likely. So the entire contract is fraudulent, and cannot be binding.
And this, in your honest opinion, explains 32x the difference in alimony awards? Please.
Loved reading this. I’ve been a happy user of BugHerd for six years now across two companies.

But it’s true that waiting for a couple of QoL features have been painful. Please let someone see all their assigned bugs across all their projects at once. :) I had hacked this together with the XML API at one point (as JSON was horribly rate limited) and then paid TacoApp to write the same integration, but it’s not functioning anymore.
Only thing to add is that you are doing your kid a disservice by not being in peak physical condition during your adolescence and early adulthood as well, as epigenetics is also affected by what happens during your development, not just when you conceive.
It's trivial to study the effect of IQ independent of socioeconomic background. You can segment your study based on these factors. You can also look at outcomes among siblings. IQ is strongly correlated independent of all these factors. It's been studied for over 100 years. It's been sliced every way you can think of.
To be completely honest, the parent poster is referring to the common experience of normal people. If you were in the position to take months off after a large liquidity event, that experience doesn't apply to you.

There is a similar effect people have when they reach a certain level of financial independence - not only are offers better, but negotiation is much easier. Companies react to confidence (whatever the source) the same way individuals do.
A four year university is 12 quarters. There is no such thing as a 2-quarter degree as far as I’m aware. Potentially this is more equivalent to a 2-year associates degree, which would be 6 quarters.

My parents never told me my IQ. They were afraid I would turn into a monster (and given their parenting skills, that wasn't a bad instinct). I learned it from my spouse after she talked to my mother.

Problem is, I thought I was just 'smart'. If there were things I struggled to understand, it was only natural for others not to get it unless I could unpack it for them.

However I also had this notion that when I understood things immediately that I was just 'faster', that in five, ten, fifteen minutes they would figure it out and we'd all be in agreement and everything would be great. Everything was not great, and I would get visibly agitated with people for not getting these completely obvious things.

These are not realistic expectations and certainly are not attractive behaviors.
At no point would all additional safety regulations, on the margin, uniformly make things worse. So I don't think the binary question of whether this "is not already current the case" makes sense.
Two things that keep me away from gnome browser. 1. The tab handling is awful, would be great if they added vertical tab support. 2. Like firefox, it doesn't play with dark desktop themes, you end up with text areas with black text on a black background.
That answer to the America question is just a student being obnoxious and attempting to show off. They should have enough awareness to know the correct response.

In most cases why would you bother trying to accurately gauge a student over 145? A student with an IQ of 145+ has very different educational needs compared to a 100 IQ student. Do you need to know if it's 145 verse 155?
You don't need to go to a specialty bakery to get good fresh bread in most of the US. It is ubiquitous in most cities, and many stores that sell it will start to run out later in the day. It is either made or delivered daily. Several small shops within 1-2 blocks of where I live all sell fresh bread.

The old school sliced white loaf in a bag that was very popular in the 1960s has been in decline for at least a few decades. I rarely see it anymore.
I always remember ordering small "apple" things and always getting fakes.

I mean apple cables, apple chargers, apple headphones.

This was probably > 5 years ago, I stopped ordering them after that.

I would assume there are other product categories still suffering the same problems.
judge the articles based on their merits. they're not hiding their sources, you can go check the study of 5,000 british students if you want to read it yourself.

ironic because you'd think that if buzzfeed was as bad as its reputation, being a left-leaning outlet, it would be reasonable to assume they'd be in favor of growth mindset.
I would almost suggest Josh Waitzkin’s book “The Art Of Learning” instead of Dr. Dweck’s as his speaks through first-hand experience of the two mindsets while being a child prodigy.

The highest score obtainable on an IQ test is achieved by realising it's complete nonsense to project the entirety of human intelligence onto a one dimensional value, and refusing to waste time on it.
Is the post otherwise good? If so, Google/quack/whatever for ze pronoun and see what comes up. Search engines are better at surfacing explanations for them these days.

In practice, you won't encounter them often, and it should be obvious if they're a troll. Those should be reported and otherwise ignored. You can worry yourself sick with these hypotheticals. You are more dynamic than you give yourself credit for.
Don't forget Hollywood. They're notoriously political, and almost entirely one-sided.

It gets tiring, trying to find somewhat impartial sources of news. The best I've found is 'Real Clear Politics'. They carry blatantly biased articles, but from both sides of the aisle.

Essentially redux is programming the state part of your app outside your UI and having an immutable approach where given a state X with Y action, Z will always result so its good for testing. This does allow you to reuse the redux parts in different frameworks quite easily but I have never done that myself. I personally find redux to be heavy for most apps as most apps are small but in teams redux shines.
> The article was super confusing because it implied the box itself would need to be traveling near the speed of light for the theorized effect to work, which is pretty useless if you're at 0c to start with

Even more useless when you consider that in your own frame of reference you're always at 0c.

Locale region, not language. Important distinction. For example I don’t believe Tencent would be used in Hong Kong (zh_HK).
I guess it depends a lot on the products you need to buy from them. As for gasoline, I live in an area where it's about the cheapest in the country, so Costco's prices don't improve much on that, maybe $1.50 per fill-up. I don't drive enough for that to matter, but I suppose that alone could still cover the cost of membership each year.

I've been previously diagnosed with a major depressive episode by a psychiatrist. The psychologist I used to see told me I had very black and white thinking and that I need to work on seeing more areas as grey.

I'm one data sample but I fit your description to a tee.
I don't think a single IQ test is overly meaningful. I did some IQ tests in my youth, which produced interesting numbers (120-140 range); later I took one during my university time, which came back with a two-digit result.
This is super true, React/Redux with hooks is really nice to work with. If you use the redux hook it is super apparent what is coming from store, what is coming from external props and what is internal state.

It makes it dead easy to cold read a components functionality and super simple to detect code smells.
Yup, there is no word on the tolerances that would have been required (especially when using realistic sized stone blocks, rather than 126 large blocks as done in the experiment).
Supply and demand. Look it up.
They should have enough awareness to know the correct response.

This was an actual anecdote from a discussion with a parent of the child in question. The child in question was probably between four and seven years old. They were being assessed by a professional one on one, not in a classroom setting. They were neither showing off nor in possession of the social skills you assume they surely had to have.

I will add that imposter syndrome is common among adults because it's quite hard to figure out where we stand in relation to other people, so smart adults frequently feel they must be "average" because this is "normal" for them. Children are at substantial disadvantage compared to adults.

Do you need to know if it's 145 verse 155?

Possibly. The standard deviation for IQ tests is just 15 points.

More importantly, a test that only goes to 145 cannot distinguish 145 from 180. Both will likely score 145 or close to it.
I'm excited to give this a try, though I wonder if there's a way to replace command tab with it instead of control tab.

This little bit of UX is seriously one of those things you notice in Windows, if you're primarily a Mac user, and go "holy shit, I'm missing out." Windows 10, faults aside, actually does have some pretty clever UI/UX in spots that I really wish Apple would just "steal," because it (MacOS) sort of feels like a one-button-hockey-puck-mouse sometimes.

I won’t defend the marketing very much, I think there’s a lot wrong in pharma marketing. The only (very slight) defense I’d make is that marketing when done well brings in more resources than it costs and helps the broader org. That said, it’s hard to know and it’s a difficult area morally.
> When it was "proven" that I was "intelligent", I just felt like more of a failure

I fly United twice a month and the only time I had my seat moved in 20 years was when a 15 year old ended up in the exit row and they had him swap with me. I call BS on your story.
They're not completely useless, but I do find that I don't seem to get much benefit from them.

For example, I needed to rent two cars on a trip last year. The first car I was able to rent through Air Miles, but I had to pay the taxes and any fees beyond the base price myself so it didn't feel like much of a deal. The second car required more Air Miles than I had, so I had to pay for the whole thing myself, I couldn't do part on Air Miles and part cash.

I ended up renting the second car through Costco and felt like I got a better deal overall than I did with the first car.

Maybe rental cars aren't the best way to use them.
No. I never did. Please stop.
Its an incredibly small sandwich.

You're just describing food trucks, and there's plenty of cities which have a large number of them.

Out of the box Firefox, even as-installed on Debian through apt, has sponsored content on the home page and new tabs. It's basically advertising.

> Do you have any stats on apartments without baths? I know apartments with no showers exist but I haven't seen one since 2000.

I dug around a bit and I can't find anything outside of some articles with people wondering if those apartments are still worthwhile with the number of public baths going down.

I know I've seen train ads for new ones as recently as last year -- it might be worth mentioning that all of these apartments are inside the Yamanote, which explains why they don't have baths... cut everything possible to keep the rent down to something someone could normally hope to afford.
Noone once gave me any advice anywhere near that and I really wish they had. Not only is it important to know how to work hard (an easy skill to miss when tests are easy), but being able to relate to people is a huge indicator for happiness and success.
What, if any, advice would you offer someone who would like to begin learning about security today?
They aren't indiscriminately doing anything. Only executables with hashes not previously seen are sent by default, and clearly you know how to turn that off.

They're legally bound by their privacy policy. They can't use info obtained by those executables to blackmail you or turn you in to authorities; they can only use that data to improve the anti-malware service they offer. And, as previously mentioned, you know how to turn it off.

The information about this isn't hidden. An operating system is complex, and thus operating system configuration is likely to be complex. Microsoft could have made things less difficult to find, you're right, and they are basing their defaults on the vast majority of people, like me, who are completely fine with doing what we can to improve their anti-malware service.

You're angry and that's fine.

Imagine the anger (and the fallout) if yet another malware worm used Windows to propagate across the world. People were absolutely LIVID last time, and there were lots of lawsuits against Microsoft for ILOVEYOU and Code Red and others of the era. The default settings you see today are a direct result of those events and other, smaller ones, like them.
