I feel like most bootcamps are bad, and the metric I measure it by is how many people actually end up with careers. Sample size of friends, coworkers, and coming across random profiles on Linkedin or Twitter or whatever.

Hackbright is the best one from what I've seen when it comes to placement and career retainment, and it's free too, but it's only available to women. Hack Reactor seems ok. App Academy seems ok too. DevBootcamp seems like it used to be ok, but is now bad after it was sold.

Which other bootcamps have you hired people from?
How do security cameras remove the "vibrancy of your young urban block" or "the sense of trust and community in your suburb"?

Yes obviously “death” can be used in more than one way, when it’s chanted in combination with violence I think it’s safe to assume it’s probably the more literal interpretation
And businesses.

This rule still holds true today. When I talk to people in their 20s and younger these days about Facebook, for instance, the near universal reaction is "Facebook is for old people and companies". They're all using something else.

You're forgetting taxes. CA has some of the highest taxes in the country. Comparing to TX, for example, gas is about $1/gal more in the bay and TX has no income tax.
Anecdotally, I agree with this. All of the successful dev bootcamp alumni that I know had been writing code for one reason another for at least a year before they joined one of the bootcamps. They probably didn't need a dev bootcamp to get them off the ground, but it probably helped with giving them structure and routine to fully follow through with retraining and transitioning careers.

Generally there seem to be three schools of hiring: (1) people who have been classically trained, (2) people who seem generally smart and willing to grind, (3) people who have done the work before.

#1 you mostly only get from a 4-year degree program, and colleges generally filter for #2. The other way I see people in category #2 hired is when they transition into a dev job through ad hoc circumstances (e.g. data analyst who needed to do more and more coding on the job). #3 is just having been a programmer before.

If you go to a dev bootcamp, you won't have #1 or #3. You're depending purely on #2, and that's the one category where it's mostly about you, not the dev bootcamp. The dev bootcamp is just there to give you structure and to signal something to employers.
The project is managed using Lerna so that we can reuse code easily across multiple platform. Currently, Ulangi mobile app is built using React-Native. I also decide to build a desktop version using Electron.

This is an offline-first app meaning it can work without internet; however, some features do require internet, such as searching dictionary or images.
HOAs in most states cannot issue liens for unpaid fines, only for unpaid dues or assessments.
Typical replies... "this doesn't represent ALL bootcamps!" Oh, I didn't know that excuses it. Less than 100% of them operate immorally so let's just not talk about it.
> IANAL, but my understanding is that it's not even clear you can avoid the "don't sell my data" language in CCPA even if you don't sell/share/collect data.

This is how my company's counsel (and other attorneys with whom our counsel consults with) has read the CCPA. If you don't sell data you don't need to include language to opt out of data sales since you don't do it. If that changes you have to message customers of change and provide the button.
Thanks for the feedback. I totally agree about simple auth.

emauth is intended to be very barebones. On it's own it really doesn't do much. You still need to have some sort of session management on your server. What emauth saves you from is having to worry about generating/storing passwords.

Returning a JWT is an interesting idea. Can you explain more what that would look like? Obviously anything that involves consulting emauth.io for every request isn't going to work. But maybe there would be a simple way for emauth to delegate token verification to your server.
I wasn't reffering to the assassination as much as the constant escalation and the targeting of cultural sites.

Whatever mess is happening in the Middle East, it's hard to deny the U.S.' role in creating it so it's not really as simple as "We're good, they're bad". In fact one could argue that it's the opposite of that.
Imagine if it uses facial recognition to tell you when the guy is next entering the neighborhood. Dystopian, but it could work.
Unsafe blocks don't mean it's unsafe: just that the language's safety scheme can't prove anything about that particular block. You prove each safe externally with Rust's safety handling everything else (i.e. majority of the code).

You can also go further like I did here:

I don't think the risk of child porn is why FreeNet hasn't really taken off; I think it's due to the fact that it's slow and its content is incredibly limited, largely existing for hobbyists.

I'm not 100% sure how you'd be able to evict offensive/illegal content in a fully distributed and decentralized way, especially while keeping free-speech guarantees. If you used some kind of consensus/voting system you would risk a sybil attack (or something similar) by entities that simply disagree with an opinion posted.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but virtually every system for handling this (thus far) has required an arbiter in the middle to avoid such problems.

EDIT:
I haven't read the paper yet, but in regards to Sybil attacks in particular, the creator of the Kademlia algorithm wrote a follow up to help mitigate these things called 5ttt or Tonika. [0] I don't know if this will help with what you want to do but it's probably worth reading.

Unlimited PTO usually ends up being a confidence trick to guilt people into even less time off. If it was truly unlimited, few people would show up. If people just need to work the hours to finish the work, that is already happening and/or there is not enough work. No interpretation seems to favor the employee in the long run. This is merely my observation and opinion.

One of the reasons I use my Apple Card is because it's a step in the right direction.

I don't remember exactly what Tim Cook said in the announcement, but I believe it was something to the effect that Goldman Sachs can't use the information for marketing. Whether that means internal marketing, or if they're selling it or not wasn't specified.

It's not ideal, but it's a start; and other than cash, the only way to vote with my dollars.
Package theft is not just about the money. If I buy something, I want that something, not my money back. Not mentioning that some of the things I receive may be "priceless" (understand: much more valuable than the price tag the insurance will use as a reference).

Furthermore, insurance companies don't like to lose money, and they are likely the ones to encourage you to install a surveillance network. If anything, to make sure that you aren't stealing your own packages.

There’s has been little to no evidence any of the data collection/analysis done by the Trump campaign influenced anyone.
I know the author would chalk my experience up to 'survivorship bias', but my bootcamp experience was life-changing and 100% positive. I don't know if the quality of bootcamps have gone down, but I did one ~5 years ago, and was very impressed by the talent of my classmates and felt lucky to be with them.

Backgrounds were extremely diverse, from Ivy-league graduate math majors to a former horse trainer. The graduation rate was around 85%, and among the graduates, the 'true' job placement rate was probably around 90%. I was able to hit the ground running in my first software engineering job at a well funded startup, and was on par with other fresh cs degree graduates. Over the next few years I was the first among that class to be given a team leadership role.

Looking at LinkedIn, the other graduates from my bootcamp seem to be having their own successes at FAANG jobs and other strong positions. While I believe my experience was somewhat typical for my bootcamp cohort, (like college) I think quality can vary greatly based on the bootcamp, and I am sure some are bad deals in the ways Zed has outlined.

edit: For those who are wondering if the successful bootcamp grads would have been successful anyways without the bootcamp - 100% no way for me. I had already been self-studying programming before the bootcamp and it was a night and day difference. It would have taken years of self study to learn what I did, and with a good chance that life would have derailed me along the way.

The article claims that the people still desire to see our leadership topple. I doubt most of the people chanting the phrases want to see "individual Americans" die but want to see our government die.
Take anything Zed Shaw says with a grain of salt, given that he has his own very strong views on how to teach/learn coding (as shown by his books).

For example, "FBTA"s are real and I have encountered them in real life. There are definitely bootcamps that game the system by hiring their own grads.

On the flip side, I think ISAs are a really promising way to align incentives between the school and students. Compare that to people going into massive debt by going to uni and then failing to find a good job - only the gov't cares if you're able to repay your debt or not.

The question is... did the bootcamp help? Or could you have done all of this skipping the bootcamp?

I also was a nerd growing up, wrote QBasic code in 2nd grade, got an unrelated bachelors degree (Philosophy).... but I just used side projects as my resume to get my first job 15 years ago.

Did you need the bootcamp, or could you have entered the industry without it?
The author appears to run this website: https://learncodethehardway.org/ which directly profits from people not doing bootcamps but rather, teaching themself to code (using his books). So maybe not the most unbiased source (even if some of the content rings true).

why is eviction so bad? provided the person has the resources to move and is given enough notice, I fail to see what is so morally wrong about it. it can certainly be inconvenient and/or disappointing, but it's hardly a heinous evil.

the expectation to live on a specific piece of land indefinitely has always seemed one of the more bizarre entitlements to me. it's basically the only thing we can't make more of.
I think your resume looks really good if you explain that you solved complex problems with Visual Basic because it was the right tool for the job given the circumstances. If it’s the only thing you know, maybe not.

> The privacy violation that infuriates me the most is that Visa and Mastercard sell your purchase data, and I don't believe CCPA applies to them. Like cell phone companies selling tower-based location data, the credit card's sale of data is unavoidable and completely hidden from consumers.

If they do business in CA, why wouldn't CCPA apply to them? Even for HIPAA-covered entities, the CCPA still applies, just not all the parts (specifically there are exceptions for health data).

Except for the climate change part. Continued carbon emissions threaten billions of lives.

To keep our planet inhabitable current-fuel air travel must be reduced to a tiny fraction of its current scope within the next few decades (alongside many other drastic changes to transportation, industry, and electricity generation). It’s not clear that alternative power sources for air travel will be practical at large scale any time in the near future.
My opinion, which is obviously reflecting my own bias, is that there is a very large segment of the US who really ought to know better, and that there isn't much we can do until they choose to do so. They've crossed the line from the ordinary kind of biases, selfishness, and differences of opinion to active malice.

That has been exploited by those seeking power and money, but that exploitation is so transparent that they can't be unaware. They accede to it because their top priority has become the fight itself and defeating their opponents -- even though those opponents are fellow citizens. That allows them to buy into even the most obvious deceptions, because it affirms for them the deeper truth.

I've expressed this in nonpartisan terms, but I'm willing to bet that everybody knows who I'm talking about, and they will object. I'm not going to engage -- the whole point here is that I don't believe engaging will achieve anything. And it also means that their attempts to convince me will similarly be ignored -- either because I'm right, or precisely because I'm wrong. The irony bugs the hell out of me.

That isn't actually true. It would be perfectly possible to build a payment system where the participants by default don't know the identity of most other parties.

Like, it would be perfectly possible for a merchant to encrypt the transaction description with a public key of the customer, and their bank only submitting the encrypted record with the amount and the account to debit to the card issuer, who would debit the account and pass on the encrypted record to their customer.

That's just a random idea, but the point is that you could achieve much the same result with a lot less data collection if you actually cared to.
I think you missed Ps point completely. It was that if the ratios are off, the lower side has more of a supply.

Stupid things like overthrowing Iran's government and installing a puppet monarchy?

> In August 1953, the Shah finally agreed to Mossadegh's overthrow, after Roosevelt said that the United States would proceed with or without him,[64] and formally dismissed the prime minister in a written decree, an act that had been made part of the constitution during the Constitution Assembly of 1949, convened under martial law, at which time the power of the monarchy was increased in various ways by the Shah himself.[65] As a precautionary measure, he flew to Baghdad and from there hid safely in Rome. He actually signed two decrees, one dismissing Mosaddegh and the other nominating the CIA's choice, General Fazlollah Zahedi, as Prime Minister. These decrees, called Farmāns, were specifically written as dictated by Donald Wilber, the CIA architect of the plan, and were designed as a major part of Wilber's strategy to give legitimacy to the coup, as can be read in the declassified plan itself, which bears his name.

> Soon, massive popular protests, aided by Roosevelt's team, took place across the city and elsewhere with tribesmen at the ready to assist the coup. Anti- and pro-monarchy protesters, both paid by Roosevelt,[64] violently clashed in the streets, looting and burning mosques and newspapers, leaving almost 300 dead. The pro-monarchy leadership, chosen, hidden and finally unleashed at the right moment by the CIA team, led by retired army General and former Minister of Interior in Mosaddegh's cabinet, Fazlollah Zahedi joined with underground figures such as the Rashidian brothers and local strongman Shaban Jafari,[66] to gain the upper hand on 19 August 1953 (28 Mordad). The military joined on cue: pro-Shah tank regiments stormed the capital and bombarded the prime minister's official residence, on Roosevelt's cue, according to his book. Mosaddegh managed to flee from the mob that set in to ransack his house, and, the following day, surrendered to General Zahedi, who was meanwhile set up by the CIA with makeshift headquarters at the Officers' Club. Mosaddegh was arrested at the Officers' Club and transferred to a military jail shortly after.[67] On 22 August, the Shah returned from Rome.

Stupid things like shooting down Iran Air Flight 655 and killing 290 civillians?

What I find is that, while Rust unquestionably improves the security of software, the argument that you can minimize unsafe code and thoroughly inspect it doesn't tell the full story, because in my experience people end up writing general-purpose unsafe blocks, and while they are controlled by the "safe" outside, the sequence of actions the "safe" code tells them "unsafe" code to execute can lead to subtle bugs.

I’m no biomed expert. But I recall earlier discussions that amyloid plaque is basically just misfolded proteins, which are hard to differentiate from prions by any meaningful definition.

Now I have no idea what Tau proteins are, but it sounds like they’re also a type of misfolded protein. So, to those more knowledgeable, how inaccurate would to be to say Tau proteins are basically prions too?
Because it's a worse car.

The absolute minimum bar to hit for a car that's even roughly the same price (say within 30% or so) is the range of the equivalent Tesla.

Bear in mind also, that this car would not give you access to Tesla superchargers. I'm currently on a road trip across Europe and if I had to use only the standard chargers it would have been far more logistically challenging.

So to make up for that it should have significantly _more_ range than a Tesla, because otherwise it's an inferior product in practice.

That isn't happening, and everything they make without that problem solved is literally a waste of energy. A little Nissan Micra type car can have a 100 mile range and that's fine, it's a city car.

A big sedan should be able to drive anywhere - if it can't, it's basically a stocking filler, it's going to be scrapped in 5-10 years.
