I would say that helping employees feel like they are making a difference with their work is important . It's very easy to feel like work is just a paycheck. Once people get to a point that work is a just a paycheck then the quality of work and happiness falls. Also help with work life balance. It's very common for new and young employees to give their all to new jobs they like but that leads to burn out which is bad for all involved. And eventually leads to bad job performance and having to fire them or they quit. As a CEO be very clear and constantly reinforce what your company culture is and what your goals as company are.

You drive the company and your employees are the force to get you where you need to go.

Also be careful with buying their loyalty via ever increasing benefits. This leads to a cycle of being disappointed with what you have and wanting more, no matter how much you get.
Most of the time, the complexity comes from the app and its requirements rather than having anything to do with React. Could another framework do a better job of handling and helping you manage that complexity? Maybe, depending on the specific use cases. But my guess is the majority of those apps would be complex regardless of framework.
Those things are true in the current climate regime. They may not hold true when global average temperatures exceed 1.5 degrees over preindustrial. In addition to decreased crop yields what we will be able to grow will be less nutritious, not even getting into increased mortality due to heat and other human impacts: https://climate.nasa.gov/news/2865/a-degree-of-concern-why-g...

However, one report is not conclusive, especially as that Science article points out how "Studies aimed to test the BWT (3–6)h ave provided mixed results at best", suggesting that their paper only adds to the mix.

You can see this in the abstract for an upcoming paper (expected publication date, Jan. 2020) at https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-crimin... :

> To evaluate the causal claims made in these studies, we use a potential outcomes framework of causality. We conclude that, although there is some evidence for both broken windows and informal control theories, there is little consensus in the present research literature. Furthermore, at present, most studies do not establish causality in a strong way.

The author then asserts: "The broken windows effect is also true at the level of the individual."

Is there any evidence for this?

The author also writes "Your environment (e.g. your room, desk, house) sets the norms for your behavior."

Really? Because that sounds like a fundamental attribution error to me.

Does it mean that a single person who can afford a maid to keep things clean is inherently more responsible than, say, a single parent with two kids who is also a small business owner, but can only clean up the house once a week?

No. Clearly not.
Hi I wrote the blog post linked - and I feel a little silly that I didn't check that _both_ loops vectorized. So I fixed the Rust implementation to keep a running vector of partial sums which I finish up at the end - this one did vectorize. The result was a 2X performance bump, which I'm about to include in the blog post as an update.

If it's OK I'll link to this comment as the inspiration.

On the iterators versus loop: for some reason when I use the raw loop _nothing_ vectorizes, not even the obvious loop. What I read online was that bounds checking happens inside the loop body because Rust doesn't know where those indices are coming from. Using iterators instead is supposed to fix this, and it did seem to in my experiments.
I would love a coding assignment. But make sure you have an style guide and tell me what paradigms to use and what patterns, and have an auto linter and style formatter. I would hate to be rejected just because I used tabs and you prefer tabs or vice versa. A could adapt to anything, even write the damn app in brainfuck if thats what you want. Instead you dismiss me after 5 minutes of soft talk with a group of people i never met.
I really don’t understand why ISPs don’t sell VPN-to-the-home as a feature. It’s very useful and would make the scenario you describe trivial to set up. I imagine it would benefit the ISPs because they’d get not only your home traffic but your mobile traffic as well.

Mutiny works with any CMS so shopify is technically fine. What type of personalization do you want to do? If you have a ton of products and want to dynamically change the product you show, it might be better to build a server side implementation. We are not quite optimized for big e-commerce sites who want to optimize SKUs - that's much more of a b2c use case. Send me the site and what you are trying to do, and I can take a look.
If only each OS would ship an abstraction layer that guaranteed "at least modern browser X" that one could ship into. I want to ship an electron app but I want it to be 100kb and start in 0.1s and take almost no memory because the libs are shared. I don't want each little chat app or music player to gobble up half a gig of ram and take 3 seconds to start.
It's quite interesting how Lenses blends the streaming data fabric with the application layer!

The other major distribution network already visited every addressable location and took packages of varying sizes: the postal service.

Newspaper delivery was closer to 'real-time' - it was printed this morning, and arrived for consumption during morning coffee. Many children took paper routes for some cash and delivered on their bikes. You slow down paper delivery when you start sending along multiple shipments, weighing more, for various customers.

well there's the rub. How am I supposed to be "adequately" interested in the company/job if I don't know anything about the company or the job?

That's what I mean by talking to a candidate before the screen. Going through a recruiter isn't sufficient for most of the information I would like before deciding to apply for the job.

> The context for such a meeting is to share knowledge and information, which discursive domain provides the reason for meeting in the first place.

Yes, that underlying context is true but you're missing the point of my example. The professor example was not about "information" vs "friendship". It was meant to illustrate "engaged" vs "disengaged" in the conversation which is orthogonal to whether the context is teacher/student or friend/friend.

For example, professor X sits there with arms folded across the chest thinking the student doesn't really care about his class and is only there to lobby for a good grade.
Therefore the professor just answers, "Uhm, yes, I see. Well, I don't know what to say other than make sure you get your final paper in by next week".

On the other hand, professor Y was genuinely intrigued by something the student said and it spurs him to search his bookshelf and clarify something. He didn't have to physically get up to get a book but the conversation was engaging enough to do so. When the professor temporarily turns his back to the student to fetch a relevant book, that doesn't mean he's less disconnected from the conversation; he's actually more connected.

That's what I'm trying to convey: maybe measuring how much time your friend's eyes are glued to your face isn't the best way to measure connectedness. E.g. The professor X with the unbroken stare towards to the student was actually less engaged than professor Y that paused the conversation to find a relevant book.

Like I said previously, I can't argue with others' feelings. This thread shows me that everybody seems to have different thresholds of annoyance for others using their smartphone to look up something. Personally, I'm never slighted or offended by it. I actually feel complimented if our conversation prompted their fingers to type out a search request because of something I said. Just last week, I was talking with a friend about iron supplements and as we were talking, she typed in a search query for the most iron-rich foods. It was great as the conversation then flowed into spinach, tofu, etc.
Myths About AI Manufacturing Applications
>Do it at the top-level.
Which top level?

Requires a lot of coordination code, duplication, and coupling of your entire component hierarchy to each other no?

Still doesn't solve disparities in data loading completion across different services. Render giant loading spinner or the entire app?

Plus, you will be overfetching if everything is pulled into top level components.

For exactly the reason componentizing the markup was a good idea, it is beneficial to breakup data loading and manipulation concerns across components, while also being able to reuse some of this logic through abstractions (hooks).

>Keeps your UI components reusable so they aren't coupled to a specific app or backend.

They are coupled to each other by virtue of where you define them in the hierarchy and which props they need to pass to and receive from each other.
Hey Patrick. I drive past the current office quite frequently at night and notice most of the TV screens in the meeting rooms are left on (on a dark blue idle screen). For the sake of the planet, can you switch these off at the end of the day? It's frustrating to see such an innovative company wasting energy on something so easily fixed.
Electron is so heavy you could include a copy of Windows 95 with every application and use its GUI.

This is how ludicrous the state of modern computing is. Java accomplished the same thing with fewer limitations and vastly more efficiency.

Best case scenario of the continuing "evolution" of electron is the elimination of the OS entirely. Why do you need it? Just put drivers in Chrome and be done with it. It's already the rest of the damn OS to a lot of people (notably not people like me).
"Statistics don't matter when it happens to you."
It sounds like you're looking for something like the Chrome Debugger Protocol. There are wrappers over it such as Puppeteer that let you spawn a browser instance and call arbitrary DOM APIs.
Although I agree with the idea, getting good at a jack of trades might be equally difficult (e.g. depending on childhood influences or genetics). If A complements B and someone gets good at A, he/she probably HATES B to the point to avoid it as much as possible.

Same here, but it's my understanding that they don't strictly hire for specific roles/teams and take a large number of unsolicited applications. The tech screen is also interactive with an engineer which is much better than automated assignments with a time limit.
Man the feels. I played the heck out of Utopia. But yeah Utopia's internal kingdom forums would get wiped out every season. It would take a little while for the Crystal Ball app to update. I think an archive system for the Q and A format isn't a terrible idea but you could take it further and build actual knowledge dbs that collected the best info sources and paired them with relevant books and tutorials where appropriate.

That's the fault of people who are completely brain dead and leave the DVR in plane sight. Hide the damn thing far from the monitor and run an hdmi/dvi extender.

That's what I did for a friend. We hid it in a kitchen cabinet behind canned items and ran a VGA cable to the living room TV on the other side of the kitchen wall. No one would know it was there.
> That's a rather uncharitable characterization. SF is just trying to tie jobs to adequate housing construction.

I’m a San Francisco native. I’ve learned to be uncharitable when it comes to the Board of Supervisors. They are masters of saying one thing and doing another.

Increasing the fees on office space is going to make even more projects infeasible, which would lead to fewer offices being constructed. Which, in their minds, will justify the fees. For the longest time, the self-styled “anti-corporate” faction in San Francisco politics have said that the cap on office space construction that Elberling helped to pass back in 1986 is not a real burden because so few offices have been built that the cap has rarely been the limiting factor.

Limiting offices in San Francisco isn’t even going to help with the jobs-housing imbalance. As we see here, the limited office supply in San Francisco is driving companies to move to other Bay Area cities that don’t pretend to care about the jobs-housing imbalance.

The workers still need somewhere to live, and many of them will live in San Francisco. But instead of using our extensive investment in transit to downtown San Francisco, they will use the more limited transit and freeways going to the outskirts of South City.

Enough with this every-county-for-itself race to the bottom. If the San Francisco supervisors were serious about the jobs-housing balance, they would not be making offices harder to build in San Francisco. They would be ceding local control of land use to a regional authority, in exchange for the rest of the Bay Area counties ceding their control, too, so that we could build an integrated and equitable region. Solve the jobs-housing imbalance for the whole region by building a lot more homes.

Sure, percentage wise, the majority of desktop computers are on Windows.

Expect this to add at least an hour a day to the commutes of those employees living in East Bay. Oyster Point is a long way from the Bart station. The fastest option will be to change to the shuttle at Glen Park. The ferry is nice for those who live near the terminal, but slower than Bart and shuttle for everyone else.

On a more positive note the Caltrain station is closer, so the East Bay commute could improve significantly in 20-30 years if the Caltrain to Oakland tunnel is ever built.

> But it's straight up impossible to do a lot of what Git{Hub,Lab} do without JS.

Like infinite incremental loading that randomly stops working and also breaks browser's built-in search functionality because the thing you want to find is not loaded yet until you scroll down? Yeah, I'm glad they can't do that BS.

Making a good service isn't only about what you can technically do. I'd say it's much more about what you choose to do with whatever tech you have at hand. My experience with GitLag is that it's slow and the UI is generally clumsy (I have to use Google so often to find my way around), and you run into antifeatures like infinite scrolling and this: https://i.imgur.com/Qmtec2b.png

Sadly I think all these sites (SourceHut, Github, Gitlab..) have things to learn from cvsweb. That is, if one could ever convince them to prioritize convenience over prettiness. That is, probably never.
I guess it's impossible to please everyone, but I would be miserable with this setup. I'm far more productive in the mornings and have managed to keep most of my meetings in the afternoon so they don't interfere with my productive time. Only allowing meetings in the mornings would probably cut my productivity in half or more.

Why does the report not put spotlight put on car crash deaths? Footnote links to data that says over 1/4 of unintentional injuries are from motor vehicle deaths, more than even overdoses. Add on that sitting on your butt in traffic or keeping your kids "safe" indoors is going to increase obesity and heart disease.

This changes with the size of the firm you're part of. It's true for individual pursuits like basketball, drawing comics, or entrepreneurship.

But a big corporation gets around a lack of any one critical variable by hiring someone for that variable. So if you're an excellent backend engineer, your time is wasted learning digital art, because somebody else will be making the artwork. Effectively the corporation becomes the organism and you become one specialized organelle in them. You're better off increasing your expertise within that specialty than learning other ones - say by firsthand experience with all the ways distributed systems can fail.

The returns to being a top individual producer beat the top returns to being a corporate drones, but the average returns are significantly worse (because the big corporation benefits from being able to swap out individual motivated actors to plug deficiencies rather than having to develop skills itself), so depending on your risk tolerance, this may or may not be a good strategy.
> If people who view such material are in the wrong because they support the harm it causes, then are not people who support Tor in general also guilty of the same?

How is this any different than FedEx or USPS? They don't read your mail to see what it is. To a near certainty at least some of what they deliver contains child pornography.

And what about roads? I bet child pornographers sometimes use roads for child pornography related purposes. Does that mean we're all complicit as taxpayers? Or maybe it's that the child pornographers are the guilty parties and common carriers are not the police.

Check out create-react-app: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app

It sets up a 'modern' React-based web dev environment that can be used to immediately start experimenting with stuff. React acts as a view layer, so you can write views and components in HTML-ish declarative syntax while still getting live updates whenever data changes.

Past that, it's common for people to add Redux or MobX, which both act as global data stores with good integration with React, and have lots of secondary libraries for transparently handling data persistence.
Yeah and doctors here regularly receive incentives from drug companies to push drugs on patients. My girlfriend gets free drug Rep lunch at least once every two weeks and has for years at the doctor's office she works at.
That was interesting indeed, thanks. For an outsider, the most trivial takeaway from that is something along the lines of "Rust is slow to compile and it's probably not getting 10x faster any time soon". Beyond the obvious culprits like heavy metaprogramming, it looks like death by a thousand cuts (not to mention that ggez spends 15 seconds on something that's not even accounted for in the profile, that alone is huge) and there obviously isn't a common root cause for huge compile times in general.
As a general principle, my plea is PLEASE keep a check on the number of clicks to do something.

The range picker used to be great where you had a text field allowing you to quickly type a time range in a single field; now it's:

- 1 click on the time range;

- 1 click on Custom Time Range;

- tab or click on the From Field;

- tab or click on the To Field.

Huh. Throwing promises to manage concurrency is kind of neat and scary (because it's new and different). I remember there was huge performance hit from functions containing `throw` statements in V8, has that been addressed (in V8 or in this project)?

I give it 15 minutes before decisions, well reasoned or otherwise, by the individual platforms cause incompatibility issues that make you wish you'd just shipped your own copy of Chrome in the first place. This is part of the reason Electron even exists.
I think OS makers explicitly don't want to do this. In the case of Apple, they prefer you to use all their tools and technologies. It allows them more management of the experience.

When I went through the red light district in 2008, I didn't find it anywhere near as sketchy as half of San Francisco.

The only disappointment that I had is that Dutch weed isn't anywhere as good as Californian weed.

That being said: If I were Dutch, I wouldn't want to raise a family within biking distance of the red light district. It's practically across the street from a major train station. Dutch children have a lot of independence, and I wouldn't want an 8, 12, or 16 year old stumbling into the red light district by accident.
