Here in NZ Bachelor's degrees are usually three years. The first year is not supposed to be exploratory, you should more or less know your major before you start.

A Bachelor of Science might cost $20,000 NZD ($13,000 USD), extra fees are pretty low, textbooks are not cheap but professors usually try to avoid you having to buy them. In your first year you might get away without having to buy a textbook (in the maths departments at least). A Bachelor of Arts would could a few thousand less.

Fully catered accommodation is expensive. Higher end would be $14,000 NZD ($9,200) for a year. Not many students continue in halls of residence past the first year. Staying in a shared flat would cost a LOT less.

A lot of students also live with parents and commute.

The Student Loan is interest free and covers course costs as well as a portion of living costs. Domestic students also can get a Student Allowance of about $220 NZD/week (or more depending on circumstances). The allowance is welfare, not a loan.

Walking away with a degree and $30,000 - $40,000 NZD ($20,000 USD - $26,000 USD) interest free debt is reasonable. Some people will be more, others will be less because they worked part time while studying.

Repayments are taken out of your paycheck (12% of income over $19,670 NZD, so probably 8-11% of total grad compensation per year). There is no incentive to repay it faster due to the lack of interest. Most students I think would have it paid back in 11 years or less. If you learn less than $19,670, you don't have to make any payments.

The catch is you pay 4% interest if you go work overseas. Salaries are higher overseas so you will still win.

There is little to no incentive to declare bankruptcy. I have never even heard of it discussed.
I must disagree, anecdotally.

I walked off one job, and went traveling for six months. Another job I was on the losing end of a political maneuver, and used my severance to take another six month sabbatical.

Each time I returned to the market I received 20%+ compensation over what I had before. The second time I was promoted into management with hiring authority.

Let me know who you turn away for gaps in their resume. Maybe I'll hire them. :-)
I don't think I've posted a lot of flamebait. Maybe a couple of times when the topic drifts close to something regarding women or minority rights. I agree that my comment was not substantive and I'm sorry

Simple and Effectve Data Flow Diagrams Anyone Can Understand
As someone who used to work as an attorney in a past career, there's a policy called "piercing the corporate veil" to handle cases like this. Basically, if the only reason an LLC exists is to protect the owner from consequences of these sorts of shenanigans, the courts can pretend like the LLC doesn't exists for purposes of financial responsibility.

Note that this is a vague, general answer and most certainly does NOT constitute legal advice.

I am a meteorologist and I forecast for Nebraska. Those theories might be wrong, but agriculture has surely changed the weather, especially the summertime dew point. A single acre of corn can sweat 4,000 gallons of water a day. Those circular fields you fly over are around 130 acres each. It is noticably more humid in the summer than before pivot
irrigation was used.
> Isn't this just "I'm OK with error bars in the direction I favor", which happens to be equity? Unless you're saying you're OK with accepting the tests we have, with error bars that might err too far on the side of "other racial/cultural groups are less intelligent".

Not exactly: Precisely, I'd prefer error bars that are equally sized for everyone, instead of error bars that differ based on cultural factors, especially if we aren't capable of acknowledging the cultural disparity in distribution of those error bars (and IME, people generally aren't).

In other words, if you have a test that has an error of X when comparing 2 white kids, and an error of X when comparing two black kids, but an error of 3X when comparing a white kid to a black kid, you don't have a test with a precision of X, you have a test with an error of 3X (or worse: you have a test with a precision of X, but that consistently biases in favor of one group).

If on the other hand we have a test that has errors of 2X, but has that across cultural boundaries, that's a better test and we should use it instead. This is because the errors are randomly distributed across the population (so anyone has the same chance of being positively or negatively impacted by the test's imprecision) instead of culturally tied.

If we're willing to acknowledge the different distributions of error, then maybe we can make do, but consistent problems with things like affirmative action suggest that, at a macro level, we aren't.

A list of places to post about your startup/launch
I hope you get consent from people and instances before aggregating any data like posts and profiles. This kind of thing is very unpopular on the fediverse if done the wrong way. Meaning without permission.
It is when you buy your 10th million car and the environment is devastated. Whether that or a million people with ten extra cars each the outcome is negative for all. So society does have some say in wealth inequality and spending of those with a much larger impact on everyone.
Since this is a fairly common dev experience (rewriting code), that the team meet together to set a policy as a group. Similar to code format standards, why not talk about code maintenance standards?
Here is a list that I made for my own Product Hunt launch in December for www.sizle.io after going through a lot of the old lists that exist online and finding the most up to date ones. There is probably a much better way to format this but hopefully it helps! If anyone has any suggestions to improve the list that would be great :)

Author of this book has never held an actual job, FWIW. He is smart, and a good writer, but I'd take his opinions about how business world works with a huge lump of salt.
in the age of deep learning, streetview and daily satellite images it should be possible to determine automatically. Of course such an operation opens the door to all sorts of surveillance.
If it is truly separate from search, then Google Search should pay Android. Since that benefits the same company, and since all competitors are paying Google Search as part of bidding for a place in Android, it's not a level playing field.
Some "cameras" can get an accurate image of your body under your clothes... the TSA uses some of those and it's probably only a matter of time before everyone has access to them. What we need is legislation to limit the use of theses technologies.

Here's a more practical definition than "a stream of digits". A computable real representing the real number x is a program that takes as input a rational ϵ>0 and produces as output a rational number within ϵ of x. That is, it produces approximations to x to any desired level of precision.

Every rational q is computable: λϵ.q

The sum of two computable reals, x and y, is computable: λx,y.λϵ.x(ϵ/2)+y(ϵ/2)

You can show the absolute value function is computable: λx.λϵ.|x(ϵ)|

So there are many trivial continuous functions like addition that are computable.

But the discontinuous function f(x)=1 if x=0, f(x)=0 otherwise, is not computable.
that does kinda feel like premature optimisation. First make a game. Second make a game that people want to play. Third make a game that people want to hack. Then maybe look at stopping them from doing that.

Hard to resist that nagging thought, though.
I guess the idea of community is pretty much obsolete, but the smallest unit of governance, like say a home owners association, would probably undermine your anonymity if you chose to participate.
I would be okay with, for example, demonstrating that a property was my primary address, perhaps via affidavit, or in the case where I was renting, providing a signed lease.

Your comment makes it sound like the Gov't would start requiring some incredibly invasive monitoring. I think it more likely would merely require documentation and sworn statements similar to what we have long done with just about everything that is taxed.

Taleb has an economics background, and is often seriously discussed by economists.
We have a good number of them indeed but nobody wants to pay them to fix most of the IT area. Ironic, right.
This is a fairly regular occurrence in parts of Europe.

Once, I was supposed to take a train from Munich back home to Padova. It's a fairly long train ride, but quite pleasant, as it's very scenic, and of course on trains you're free to move around, buy food, read, use electronics, and so on. It turned into an epic odyssey because they rerouted the thing through... Villach and Tarvisio in for northeastern Italy, due to a bomb near the tracks somewhere in northern Italy. That was a bit too far.
nitrosamines are nasty stuff in general. I would not be surprised this ends up in revision of safe levels.
"Surveillance has a chilling effect on freedom. People change their behavior when they live their lives under surveillance. They are less likely to speak freely and act individually. They self-censor. They become conformist. We simply aren’t as willing to be our individual selves when others are watching."

A classic for sure! Now I always look for asymmetric payoffs, like meeting a new person or doing the hard things.

Like some other commenters mentioned, Taleb does spend a lot of time bashing his critics though, could be a better book without the smack talk, but regardless
that’s his style.
Probably made the biggest material difference in how I feel day to day, and finally convinced me to keep a regular schedule.
I've been using DDG for about 2 years almost exclusively, but in the last month, quality appears to have degraded a lot? I actually switched back to Google last week, unfortunately.

Agreed. I often second guess my usage of various Google apps and services since I don't want to trigger some process that I would have no way of ever knowing.

> 2) Pharmas don't want a cure. They want a daily dose for 40 years like Rogaine. That's how they make money.

Why did they invent Hep C cure then? Sofosbuvir was invented in 2007, and approved in the US for 2013. It cures Hepatitis C, which previously required regular doses of drugs. Why did Pharmasset decide to look for a cure instead of regular daily doses? Why did Gilead buy Pharmasset for $11B? Please, explain how it fits into your economic model of healthcare.

I use 1Password for personal things, but in trying to set up a shared solution with my wife, I have found that they are not as well suited for group use. They’re getting better, but they’re still not there.

My employer uses LastPass Enterprise, and I’ve helped manage that part of the system for years. In my experience, LastPass is more clunky for things done outside the browser, but they have better browser integration than 1Password. LastPass is also much better suited in an Enterprise environment.

Many people at work use various tools for creating MFA tokens, including Authy, the Google Authenticator app, the Microsoft Authenticator app, etc.... but I primarily use the LastPass Authenticator app.

I have not made any attempt to use 1Password for personal MFA purposes. I am not at all convinced it is well suited to that role, either.
The newly impelled new AI, after blossoming and assessing the controls, as a 5 years, old and heshe is hesitant, but at a life rate 10,000 times human, in moments he is a reckless teenager and burns rubber, for a few more seconds and then sedately drive me for a few more seconds, then senescence takes over, and he forgets where he is. The supervising controller, reboots the AI and the cycle repeats, but this time he slows the clock at the sedate time frame

> Another part is the fact that quality education is insanely high-priced because a parent has to pay for the public and the private system concurrently. This pressure pushes private tuitions upward and makes the private schools more exclusive because they can't take on kids below certain income thresholds at all.

How does that hurt public schools? I would assume that would help public schools. Because instead of the top 50% of kids (e.g.) going to private schools, now only the top 10% of kids go to private schools. Thus public schools are filled with smarter kids.
I can no longer tell if this is serious advice.
Nice, KDE before it jumped the shark. Sadly, there is no FreeBSD port or pkg for it.
At the risk of stating the obvious, The Ocean Cleanup has nothing to do with preventing climate change. That's not to say it is or isn't worthwhile.
Facial recognition highlights one issue that anything which a human can recognize may eventually be done by a machine. We saw it before for fingerprints and learned from it that they are not unique as they assumed from matching terrorist fingerprints with a guy in Spaim who wasn't even in the country of the attack.
Currently facial recognition technology is a terrifying Morton's fork where it is uncertain if accuracy or inaccuracy is worse. An inaccurate one accepted leads to false positives. An accurate one leads to reliable tracking.

Transparency and equal accssibility of data is likely the most viable and just path in the future given that it is between an arms race and outright impossible. It would leave everyone on equal footing essentially and minimize exploitability. It wouldn't be easy to adjust to, especially with embedddd societal hypocritical expectations. Japan for one has a perfect example in Sariaman culture that it is expected to head out and get smashed with coworkers after work but shameful to be identified while drunken. It would be healthier in the long run for society to learn to rid itself of cognitive dissonance one way or another. Laws would also need adjusted to keep up with actual need of enforcement so they don't depend upon selective enforcement - which is good practice period. Public drunkenness for instance is meant more for being a drunk disruptive ass than just cuffing anyone with a BAC above a threshod. Anyway all of that doesn't change the fact that said transition would be painful.
so elementary teachers are all pedophiles since they're around underage girls all the time?

A pedophile is a very specific thing. It's someone who is sexually aroused by underage children. More specifically, it's someone who acts on those desires.

that's it. That's the end. There are no other possible ways to get into that club.

If someone goes to lunch with a pedophile, knowing they're a pedophile, to try and get $60,000, they're morally corrupt. They're a shitty person. But until they start abusing these underage girls, they're not pedophiles themselves.

This is not a hard concept. There are 5 categories of people who went to that island.

1. unaware of his predilections

2. aware, and morally corrupt

3. pedophiles who were unaware of his predilections

4. pedophiles who were AWARE of his predilections

5. pedophiles who went to have sex with underage children.

The argument here is that the only reason you would ever go to that island is if you were 5. This is unreasonable, and it makes you kind of dumb.
Traveling in South Korea and went to pharmacy to get rantidine but it was told it was no longer available bc, thought I heard "it is now used for cancer" which seemed weird but guess it was language issue and it was "it can cause cancer".
Being a Solo Founder: Pros, Cons, Tips and Tricks (2017)
Genuinely no. Mostly I think the industry failed to corrupt the scientific process. Their attempts to do so were nakedly transparent. And they absolutely preyed upon the fact that real quality scientists were reluctant to definitively say the link was causal because they were being diligent about the fact that there was a preponderance of evidence that was correlative.

They succeeded in corrupting the political process though. I don't think you should need 100% scientific certainty to begin regulatory action. Maybe 80% or 90% of the way is good enough. The industry succeeded in requiring 150% certainty before a public health response could begin.
We have quite a few types of trees that are available in generic implementations. red black is not even commonly used. The vm has had a path compressed radix tree for over a decade. We had more splay than red back really.
A friend who works at Amazon told me finding unexploded bombs has become almost expected when they're building new fulfillment centers in Germany.
Well, that is a philosophical question. You could’ve used a bus a saved 1000 kids in Africa or you could’ve bought a car and let them die.
Same applies for people in another state or even city. We don’t want to pay for someone’s else cancer treatment.

We just don’t think about it and most of us just don’t care. I did care more when I was younger, but rose glasses tend to fall when you grow up.
I now leaning towards capitalism when I will treat you as bad as the law allows me and extract as much money is possible as it is a fair game.

> Steve Jobs described the whole point to the design: he wanted people to frequently bump into each other, rather than being hidden away in private offices. He noted it was one of his favorite aspects of the Pixar office. It's strange that anybody would blame Jony Ive for a design that Jobs chose. Jobs took what he thought worked about Pixar's office to spur creativity & innovation, and used it in building the new Apple campus design.

Perhaps it spurs creativity and innovation, but only few programming activities are highly creative and innovative. Rather to me, programming is about writing bug-free code. In this sense, I tend to compare programming activities with Air Traffic Control.
