Only twice as much? I'm quite surprised, when I used to go to AYCE buffets I could easily push it to 3-4 times to make it worth the money, twice as much would not be worth the money.
The article states 40% of pupils will learn to read efficiently no matter what, it is going to be hard to identify those methods that do not work for anybody. Further we have talked about local maximum in the comments here, the brain is lazy so some methods will hurt your ability to learn.

On the flip side I agree that only doing phonics might be a local maximum for the group.
Any source for such a wild claim?

Interest rates are so low because people controlling the FED decided the rates to be low. They did so, as the story goes, to stimulate the economy growth, to make banks more likely to lend and companies more likely to borrow money and use the money they have to buy things, hire people, increase production. Of course, the reality is more complicated and lot of that newly created money just pumps the stock market with little benefit to economy.

One indeed has to pay banks for storing money, whether in USD or EUR, that's why big wealth managers don't keep big wealth as money but invest in diverse assets. Storing some USD is no privilege, it is a necessary liability. USD is needed for transactions, not for storing wealth.
This always requires the question: less safe for who?

Per that article, in 2010 the vast majority of violent crime offenders were black - and I wouldn't be surprised if the victim profile would look similar.

Pure anecdata, but this was 90% of the news I saw. Gang stabbing in park. Gang stabbing at party. Gang shooting at club.
I disagree, other companies should definitely stay away from copying the modern Macs.

I like having choices regarding OS, hardware configuration, ports, keyboards, displays, upgradeability, reaprability etc..

If you want a Mac copy then the Mac will be the best anyway.
>Also, go to a community college and count the number of macs there. There’s a clear class bias here.

Sure, since a PC would be more affordable, and in higher performance needs have more bang for the buck.

The Macs are for other kind of niceties (not raw performance per buck) and make different tradeoffs, plus cost more.
What about ear and retina? Are these purely sci-fi at this point?
There's one more situation where you should use semver: where you simultaneously develop the next version, which will not be ready for release in the next couple of weeks, and provide hotfixes to the public one. May be the end user won't be making a decision which version to use, but your qa will certainly experience both at the same time, so they should have some understanding of what's the magic version of the product, aside from release date.

> I was asked to bring in my laptop with some of my own code - I had a side project at the time, so no problem.

Seems like a good solution if the candidate has a side project. However, many candidates might have their majority of the "good" code they've written owned by their previous company.

> I am sharing in the hope that this will become the standard

Hopefully it can become a standard option. There's probably never going to be a standard technique which fits for all candidates (or employers).
I used to be of the opinion that it doesn't affect me directly so I don't care. But as more of us don't care, it becomes more common place, and then our (more gullible) relatives start taking in this information and will not listen to you because everyones knows it works! Whatever "it" is.

So no, I believe that we must actively fight false information. Not "we" in an individual sense, but "we" as a society, and that means regulation.
Yeah I didn't have a car for a while, I didn't get a job back in 2015 or so for PHP because of that ha. First in office web developer job after restaurant, I had to bike 30 miles a day lol [1] round trip, that was brutal. On the plus side, 3 hrs of podcasts. I listened to the book Eccentric Orbits then that was good.

Uber was like $60/day so yeah... although I only made it 4 days straight, never 5 days of bike riding so I would eat the Uber cost one day. I was lucky that friend loaned me $3K to get a car(opportunity). But I bought a bad car/sunk money into it(had to fix).

I would bike home from the factory pitch black road at night(dumb) listening to Changelog haha good times.

In what meaningful way were they financially poor?
We (the whole developer community) really need to stop responding to such companies.

I did one recently after the initial HR person chat. I spent a morning on it as they suggested 2 or 3 hours. But then I was rejected for the most pedantic reasons (2 white space PEP violations), not setting up mocks for testing (that would have doubled the scope of the project). Providing an HTML response rather than JSON when the spec asked for a "page, don't bother about styling". And various other trivialities.

I tried passing on my complaints, but the HR girls didn't like that. Pretty disrespectful after giving up a morning of my free time.

Sennder is the company, as I feel that we should be naming and shaming.
I haven't read the linked paper so I don't know how they'd define poor in it, but in my opinion in times of cavemen everyone was free to catch any prey to feed their families, everyone was free to pick any fruits from any trees and bushes, everyone was free to move in to any caves on any land.
I'd say they had everything they needed. Nowadays I wouldn't call that poor as masses of people working several shifts to be able to pay the rent and feed their families while they are feeding others to obesity higher up in the chain.
I am shocked that neither the article nor the discussion mentions that there were second century Roman trade artifacts recovered by French archeologists at Oc Eo[0] on the Mekong delta[1] (ancient Champa[2]; now An Giang, Vietnam). Champa was the major pre-Vietnamese society in Vietnam and Cambodia whose probable regional trading partners essentially correspond to the SEA cultural sphere currently using fish sauce. Apparently Columbus tried to reach it at one point! [3] Asian ancient history is fascinating.

> Many of these massive projects have incurred various costs and challenges. In the 1950s and 1960s, the Fillmore redevelopment targeted a largely black part of town. A 36-block area was torn down including housing, a distinct lifestyle, and a world-famous jazz community. Most of the previous occupants could not afford to return.

> In many cases, these huge, multi-decade redevelopment projects bring new life to part of a city, but sometimes we can't foresee what we're going to lose.

This is disingenuous, and shows how little the author understands about the history of American urban development. In many cases the purpose of redevelopment in US urban environments has been to push out people of color. To say that gentrification was an unforeseen consequence of redevelopment is just wrong. Gentrification is often the entire point of redevelopment by city officials.

They should read The Death and Life of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs or read The Power Broker by Robert Caro.

To be completely serious, this article reads like someone had some ideas about urban development, did absolutely no research, and then talked about those ideas like they were some kind of expert. I don't understand why the ACM would publish something like this.
When the pandemic came to italy, I thought about what would be needed to survive[1] a two month[2] lockdown[3].

I had thought that in relatively rich[4] countries, providing air (minutes) for everyone would be trivial, providing water (days) easy, and providing food (weeks) something that would require something less than 5% of the population labouring under slightly altered habits[5].

However, by mid summer it has become painfully obvious that not only did some rich countries shut off water to their citizens, there has even been an infamous case of someone being deprived of air.

Now I am much less optimistic about climate change than I was last year.

[3] In practice, we didn't even "lock down", relying more on shared responsibility, and managed to get new cases to single digits per day. Unfortunately we're now in a (smaller, at least for the time being) second wave.

That's not what it is at all. The placebo effect tells us that the thing we were doing did not cause the measured effect. If it's a placebo effect causing us to feel calmer, we could as easily hold a can of beans and be calmer if we believed it to cause us to become calmer.

According to your logic, AMD was also dead a few years ago.
Why did you pick London as an example? It has about 0.1% of the world population.
Venezuela is an example of what happens when you base your entire government spending on oil exports, prices drop, you refuse to adjust your spending in response, and resort to violence to silence critics of your spending. It has little to do with social welfare policies, or capitalism really, and much more to do with the pride of Chavez and Maduro, and a failure to diversify the economy to support social welfare policies.

The U.S., in contrast, is not only the largest oil producer in the world but also the largest economy in the world, and therefore much better diversified and suited to roll out enormous social welfare policies.

I agree that ARM is a threat to AMD as well, but AMD has two things going for it:

1. Stronger x86 design: AMD's recent CPU releases have shown they are inching ahead of Intel on x86 design, and are able to achieve significantly better cost per $. At the same time, AMD are already well into shifting a big chunk their 7nm manufacturing to TSMC. Intel has only just started this process.

2. A strong GPU business: Yes, they are second to Nvidia, but given the design skills they are showing on the CPU side, I expect that gap will narrow very quickly. Both Sony and Microsoft have chosen AMD for CPU and GPU in the PS5 and Xbox Series X, with support for full 4k ray-tracing. Given how long this generation of consoles will be on the market for (likely 5-10 years at least), it is a strong forward indicator of roadmap strength.

tl;dr: I expect AMD will weather* the ARM storm better than Intel.

Random comment about AMD, but damn their cpu line naming is really confusing. between zen, zen+, zen2, threadripper, ryzen 7,8,9. ryzen is actually 3 different architectures? then there's like ryzen 7 2000, 3000, now 4000. But for the laptop cpus the architectures are actually different. zen2 isn't used in the ryzen 3000 mobile cpus. Then you can look at best buy and see a laptop listed using a 3rd gen ryzen. Im not sure what that is actually referring to. I'm not sure how this compares to their epyc line either. I still need to read up on that...
People vastly underestimate how hard it is to do anything without capital/savings.

If you are one missed paycheque from going hungry, you can't afford any risks. No going back to school, no going freelance, no interviewing, no investing in anything. You can't afford the means to make money, whether it's a car, a computer or nice clothes. You can't afford them breaking down, but you also can't afford maintaining them.

The missed opportunities add up over time.

Grapes of Wrath is an excellent book that drives this point home really well. It hurts to read at times.

I think it's a bit disingenuous to compare the Hangul of kimchi to the writing of nước mắm when Vietnamese is already in latin script. Of course the diacritics aren't going to convey much knowledge to non-speakers besides "this is not pronounced how you're probably going to think it's pronounced" but in a world of Unicode it doesn't seem like it requires much extra effort. Maybe I can relate because everytime I look at my ID, I don't see my name, just a bastardization of it.

It should also be noted that most Vietnamese people don't really care about texting without diacritics. Most text messages are written without diacritics in order to minimize the payload size. It's just about perception when you see foreign western dishes with their diacritics like crème brûlée but see foreign eastern dishes without theirs.
My favourite “french” word on the list is “cédérom”, literally just the phonetic writing of French pronounciation of CD ROM.

This seems to be "Why do people stay in poverty?" "Poor" has a different meaning depending on who you ask. For example, students are popularly considered "poor". Some people would consider themselves "poor" if they can't afford a car. Some people consider themselves "poor" because they are not millionaires.

AMD is the exception, not the norm. There are very few companies that can do that turn around. And AMD was lucky that Intel wasn't able to continue their progress. Had Intel still been ahead of AMD, AMD's revenue's wont be growing.
The whole idea of having any government at all is to pull resources to collectively advance beyond the base state. Clearly this prosperity is not very equally shared, and that is the problem.
Sure, you can forget Pinyin, that doesn’t mean people do forget Pinyin, which you have provided no evidence for and doesn’t match observed reality. No convenience features in Pinyin-based input methods will help you if you actually forget the whole system. In fact, I personally know elderly people who were educated in 1930s and 40s who later learned Pinyin because it’s easier to type that way.

And yes, I’m aware of the non-phonetic input methods, and that professional typists could type faster in them. But the learning curve is way steeper (compared to basically none).

zen, zen+ and zen2 are the architecture. Threadripper and Ryzen are product lines. I find that quite straight forward.

The really confusing part is, is that the Ryzen 4000 APUs will be zen2 architecture but the desktop CPUs without APUs or the mobile Ryzen 4000 series are zen3 architecture.

> I can easily imagine a situation (I.e. a functioning society) in which poverty is not the default.

You're imagining a society that has overcome the default state and maintains their progress. They haven't changed the default. A machine's default state isn't being powered, but if you power up a machine and keep feeding it power and maintain it well, you can rely on it being powered. Once you stop maintaining it, or stop providing power, it will go back to the default state of not being powered.

> Do we mean absolute or relative poverty?

Absolute if you want to get anywhere. Unless you distribute everything perfectly equal, you'll always have one half that makes less than the median.

Zen was the first core design, Zen+ was an enhancement on it, Zen 2 the newest generation. This is analogous to intel chip generations.

Ryzen 3, 5, 7 and 9 are like your Core i3, i5, i7 and i9 - market differentiators.

I agree that when you start looking at the actual model numbers, they're all over the place. Zen 2 laptop products are 4000 series, but Zen 2 desktop products are 3000. I think this was a mistake, personally.

This is something I enjoy about our jobs up in Scandinavia - the salaries are very compressed around the mean.

Engineers, Lawyers, and other similar professions tend to earn 2x-3x of what the absolute minimum wage jobs earn. That's quite the difference compared to other countries, where Engineers can earn 5x-20x.

People here are still motivated to seek higher education and better paid jobs, even though they could live normal lives off those lowest paid jobs that don't require any education.
