This came before the usage of 皇 to broadly mean emperor (i.e. during the Spring and Autumn period before the Qin dynasty), although it is used to describe the three mythical emperors. Here it's a clan name (氏), the common clan name of the kingdom of Song.

When recording names in historical records usually the given name as well as honorary name are given as well (honorary names of these figures are all recorded alongside these given names and are far more ordinary).
Is that unusual? I've heard of other states having similar programs. When I was a teenager in Pennsylvania, my time during the school day was split between highschool and community college (paid for by the state or school district, I don't recall.

It's a good system, though few bothered to take advantage of it. I was one of 4 or 5 kids in my grade that took advantage of the system, even though there were dozens of better students than me who doubtlessly qualified.
I graduated the year it popped... nobody was hiring, especially people with no experience. Out of about 200 compsci my year, I doubt 10 got a job that year doing anything computer related. It was brutal.
That's... not the point of the article.

If you read further, for example,

In these viral budgets and diaries, urban professionals—they are almost always urban professionals—describe spending on $7 lattes and $70 bikini waxes and $70,000 private-school tuition. Some describe themselves as middle-class. Many describe themselves as unable to save. Self-evidently, this is nonsense: Spending tens of thousands of dollars a year on vacations and babysitters and housekeepers and fancy salads means you are choosing not to save, not that you are unable to save.
> The question is, "Why not Harvard? Or any other top school in the US?"

Because Hardvard or "any other top school in the US?" didn't invite Tim Cook to be the on their board?
Yes, we have accreditation and professional societies. And yet, our doctors and dentists are not "notoriously expensive". I'm saying the one does not necessarily cause the other.
Even if they add little, they're bright shiny objects that attract attention when visiting & deciding to attend a school. Usage of them afterwards is almost besides the point. And that has created an arms race of bright shiny facilities to avoid falling behind competition.

Yea, that doesn't sound anything like today!

/sarcasm
Because China is important. And, unlike the Arab oil producers, China actually has the human capital to create a university that competes with Harvard for prestige. Get used to stuff like this. Tim Cook is about 10 steps ahead of everybody who gives him a hard time for how Apple deals with China.

Me: Why does your [38 year old] sister hate your parents so much? She has a real chip on her shoulder, doesn't she?

Friend: Well..long story short, they refused to continue to pay for her college, cutting her off at the end of her sophomore year. She couldn't afford to continue on her own, and she feels betrayed, and that it set her back decades.

Me: That really sucks..now I get it. They're bastards! So, where did she go?

Friend: Evergreen State.

Me: Oh.

Honestly, this is a natural response to a society where being anything other than middle class (whether above or below it) is seen as a dirty thing. It's almost self defense.

> Which is why you need to build your own if this is the threat model.

I am an individual, I cannot review every container I have control over, and version pinning might lead to unpatched publicly disclosed vulns. I could code review a few, but there's no way I could cover everything I run on my own. Add in $random_distro_packages and $random_git_clones and the ratio of review to functional use would be 10:1.

> Correct, this is why companies perform security assessments of vendors before granting access to sensitive data, and have contracts in place that help hold the vendors accountable.

I am an individual, I have virtually no control over which companies hold my data. Security in most medium to large organisations leaves a lot to be desired. I highly doubt project teams in large companies that don't care about security evaluate docker containers for security. I have no control over it, and laws in most/all countries to enforce professional negligence are toothless.

> It would depend on the distro and maintainer of course, but I'd expect they do to some degree as their personal and professional reputations depend on it.

That's awfully optimistic of you. Their reputation depends more on them delivering quality, functional releases in a timely manner. Larger distributions probably have some level of security audit but I don't know what level that is, and haven't seen any public details which indicate it, either.
High Schools & colleges near me partner for this sort of thing, though I don't think there's a lot of state funding to support it. It's unfortunate, since data generally shows that students who get a head start in that way are much more likely to graduate.
Arguably serving on the board of a very powerful education institution can have way more positive influence on future generations than trade wars and sanctions.

Now whether it will, that's a different story.

A lot of countries rewrite their own history first in school and then elsewhere.

It's hard to deny the influence Harvard has on US foreign and internal policy.

You don't even need to influence many people to have lasting change on the world in the right education institutions. A handful is enough.

Oh, I just noticed the domain name -- for what it's worth, I think you should try to find a different one: by inserting a gender (woman) and age (not young) into a neutral thing (helping someone else with a computer), you're encouraging a stereotype that already exists of women and not-young people as not understanding technology.

If you don't agree that the domain name does this, consider how ridiculous it would sound for it to be "helpoutdad.com". Help out Dad? With what? It only works as a slogan if it's able to latch on to the sexist stereotype.

>> I’ve collected names from the sublime—Vancouver city council candidate Jean Swanson’s (金玉鹅) beautifully phonetic and semantic rendering of her name

>Was that joke? At least in Japanese, the two first are a very common colloquial for testicles.

Probably not, although "beautifully phonetic [...] rendering" is a bit of a stretch: only her given name is phonetically rendered.

Whoever advised her on taking the name probably didn't know the Japanese colloquial meaning of 金玉, but was referencing the Chinese idiom 金玉滿堂[0]. It probably sounded good to Swanson because she's deeply concerned about poverty[1], but it feels like gilding the lily, because the whole name literally means "gold-and-jade goose/swan" (鹅 is probably referring to the "swan" in "Swanson", but "goose" seems to be what people landed upon in this thread).

It’s ironic you are been downvoted and hidden for this comment.

I want to believe.

But the article has problems.

First, it's not about colleges, it's about a case study on one specific cool hippy college that has no majors, no structure, a handful of semi-known graduates, and 13 students in the recent freshman class and (they think) probably 0 in the next.

Article has problems. Look at this:

> Depending on the state, needier students will usually pay less at a liberal arts college than they would at a state flagship. It sounds counterintuitive, but choosing a public school to save money is actually a privilege for the affluent.

It then clarifies:

> A survey of 405 private nonprofit four-year colleges by the National Association of College and University Business Officers found that though the average tuition rate was $38,301.

Average tuition at private colleges is $38,301, and it's more expensive at a state college?

I think not. What state colleges charge more than $38,301 tuition? Rhode Island has the highest at $39,029 for both tuition and fees. The $38,301 private average is tuition only. Or you can pay $12,363 on average for tuition in North Dakota. According to https://www.collegetuitioncompare.com/state/.

But if you go to https://www.collegetuitioncompare.com/state/north-dakota/ you find that in state tuition is $6,608 for North Dakota residents and $8,766 for out of state.

State colleges are dramatically less expensive in every single state than private colleges, especially for in-state students. The article's claim is so absurd that it demolishes the credibility of the entire piece.
Uh no, sorry, it's the argument. You've been on this site for four years now - be honest, have you ever seen someone with a lazy armchair opinion enter a debate, receive strong pushback including scientific citations, and then refuse to change their opinion? It's literally every fifth thread here. Though imo, more fun when it's idiots telling tptacek he's wrong about security than when it's someone a dick to someone with depression (my victim mentality!!)

But sure, let me actually respond to you:

* At no point have you acknowledged or shown any awareness that depression is not "one thing". Like how people discuss "curing cancer" as if that's any sort of meaningful statement. How complex do you think depression is? What point of complexity does something need to reach before you defer to experts? Depression is still more or less a black box (watch the Sapolsky video I linked or look up some starslatecodex articles on ketamine.) Again, no sign of awareness of this on your part, which suggests you haven't done the most basic research.

* Yep, you never said there are no biomarkers. You said:

> Depression is a set of guidelines in a book that ask vague subjective questions about how someone perceives the world. And then if the person decides you have it you have it. If they don't you dont. This has very little to do with the first scenario."

This was your reason for stating that depression wasn't an illness. That it was based on a list of subjective questions. Sadly you didn't respond to the person saying that this was equally true for schizophrenia. Is schizophrenia an illness?

* I said it was an undercurrent, meaning subtext. Do you understand why subtext can't be quoted, and why that's work that you need to do for yourself? (If you somehow can quote subtext, though, immediately switch careers to political journalism, you'll be a wonder.)

* The only really offensive part was when you said "I do also believe that people don't have zero agency in this problem." Like, cool, a few sentences in and you've also added in a complete strawman to make yourself look reasonable. So this was just debate club to you.

The last point, combined with the fact that you're only responding when it might let you feel superior, leads me to believe you're not here in any sort of attempt to learn. How's your own mental health? You're clearly get some need fulfilled by arguing on the internet, which generally isn't the best sign. Watch that video, it's good, and absolutely full of things you do not know.

Apparently the unit economics are still showing lost money because they aren't fully leased at many of their locations so their rationale is that as those locations, mature, they will fill up. Which is pretty normal in the real estate market.

But it's definitely not a certainty that the locations will fill to capacity.

Once you are deeply embedded with the in-house option, you have no competition. Sometimes distinct layers bleed into each other and things get even more messy to untangle. Also, sometimes due to embarrassment alone, you continue with the in-house option.

With CSPs, at least you have four major players (AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle Cloud, ?IBM?) competing prices downward and multiple theoretical options. Yes, you have your in-house CSP expert biasing things, but since most of the work is external, at least you dont have a heavy internal weight on a home-built choice.

IMHO, the better option would be a CSP-agnostic Kubernetes based layer. But IMHO we're not there yet.
systemd does that too. The problem is that the default wait time is insanely long (I think it is something like 5 minutes). My biggest complaint with systemd is the same as my biggest complaint with tmux: many of the defualt configurations are very strange.
I think Google is a bit smarter about that? I.e., I'm pretty sure it detects things like "you click on one link, come back after 10 sec, click on another link and then never come back" and correctly attributes the weight to the link you stayed on.

Possible I'm wrong though. Or could be the heuristics for how long you stay on the page are off. E.g., it can take me a while to realize that some GitHub issue page doesn't help me at all, and I click back, then find another page and get the answer immediately. But maybe Google thinks "well they spent a while on that page, they probably got something useful out of it even if it didn't totally answer their question".
I'll offer a story a little different from most here.

I was newly graduated and working at Accenture, erm, Andersen Consulting at the time. They had an incredible deal in light of the recession, where you could take up to a year unpaid leave (I can't remember how benefits worked out, was too young to care) and be guaranteed a job upon your return. I took the entire year to travel.

There was always the worry that they'd go back on their word, but they didn't, for me or for anyone else I've heard from. And when I came back I was at my same client as prior (eBay) and had a few years of low rent and light traffic in San Jose, after which I bailed for less congested pastures. (Actually I don't remember rent going down too much. But traffic definitely got lighter.)

I don't know how to arrange things so that it works out that well in your favor, but maybe try planting some seeds in your manager's head if it looks like the next downturn might be temporary (they always are). And don't own too much stuff, so you can take off at will. (I literally packed all my belongings in the trunk of my Jetta and left it in storage).
The other challenge with the trades is that they are more subject to the boom and bust cycles than the jobs that a liberal-arts degree qualifies you for. When construction is hot, it's hot, but when the market turns, a lot of those companies that were employing 20 electricians drop to just 5-7. That's less common in social work, law/medicine, government and non-profit, etc.

I graduated from college and entered the industry just post-bust (early 2002.) I went to work for a company that had, 6 months prior, laid everyone off and decided to pivot with the remaining VC cash. I think it took them 3 or 4 months to figure out what the new company would be. That strategy wound up being successful for them (us, I guess...)
Love it. Thanks for finding this blast from the past.
My company was 12 minutes from going public, and it got pulled. That’s a fun story to reflect on.

No, people rip them, wash them in acid, and generally do everything possible to make them look like they came from a hobo, then stitch cute hearts on the sear so rich kids can look like they're "from the streets." I don't understand it, but this happens in cycles. E.g. tanning used to be bad because it indicated working outdoors, but then it flipped.

Personally, I'll stick to my durable denim that I can keep for three years or more.
It was psychologically worse than it actually was due to 9/11 and the war buildup which was really, really stranger.

The 'crash' was a very well needed market correction as few startups had figured out how to make money - and a lot of regular stocks were way overvalued.

It was a little rough for devs, but honestly, anyone with decent chops had a decent chance of securing 'something' - either in the Bay or elsewhere.

There was a huge drop off in marketing, biz dev etc. over the span of a few months it went form 'a lot of parties' to almost none!

It recovered somewhat after a few years - Google did an IPO that went really well. Then the Facebook craze started.

The 20008 crisis was much, much worse as it hit the entire American economy in a very powerful way - not just a stock/.com correction.

FYI the 'telecom bubble' was 5x bigger than the '.com' bubble, there were huge investments in optical switch companies you never heard about that went bust.

That said - the buzz since 2012 has been stronger than in .com. During .com all this zany stuff, startups etc. were completely new. So it was completely new math. By 2010-2012 - or say the real establishment of YC, a lot of the zanyiness had been normalised and it metastasised throughout the world in a way. The valuations these days are 10x-100x bigger and the game is significantly more global. In .com companies that did a $500M IPO were 'huge' or whatever. Nowadays, it's almost not going to make the news.

The correction that's coming eventually probably won't be as severe as there's no reason for a real crash. Something will give - probably China slowdown - which will pop a lot of other bubbles. To give you an example - WeWorks' valuation was not actually that crazy - as long as they could continue to raise (and it's not entirely irrational) then they could move ahead. The $50B->$10B drop is not some crazy mis-calculation so much as it is an example of the leverage being applied. A little bit of wind out of the sails and lack of momentum can kill something that might actually be working (and WeWork actually does have some workable metrics, just not at $50B).

So the coming adjustment will affect 'everyone' even if it is really only driven materially by a few things (i.e. China, trade etc.) though probably not severely.

If you do good job and have reasonable skills, I wouldn't worry too much.
I was the last person left at my company in 2008. It was a one person company, after I fired my best friend so he could go to India and drive tuck-tucks.

I moved my operations to a organic farm in the east bay. My wife and I were shoveling horse shit one afternoon with some community volunteers that just happened to be the Comcast Ethernet sales team. That is how we got the fiber.

I pulled a 40' "high cube" shipping container into one of the greenhouses <lots of illegal stuff deleted> and now operate on some dirt that will be flooded in 50 years. Elevation 4ft above sealevel.

I'm surrounded by homeless transients on 4 sides. My wife left me this year and she killed all the plants. I'm really happy because of the drugs, and sunshine.

Y'all should get out more -- dig in the dirt, make food and write code in a non-toxic environment.
Take a step back, reread what I wrote, and ask yourself if I was saying they should just "get over it."

It's not really clear to me what that would mean. Auto-replicating customer data like docker images across national borders is a non-starter for legal compliance reasons. That's got to be an opt-in, not an opt-out. So they can't just point outbound GCR requests at the EU registry and assume the customer's images are there.
