If your work culture allowed you to remove bad hires, then the company would not experience the 'cost and disruption'. The problem isn't the time invested getting employees up to speed: you'll do that with good or bad employees. The problem is, bad employees stay, and often for long periods of time. Have you experienced the bureaucratic nightmare of formally dismissing someone? It's something we all would like to avoid, but clearly today's filtering is ineffective if our organizations are filled with dead weight.
Your reconstruction of intent from my words is putting you in a very different place from where I am.

Curation - I provided the definition above because you seem to be focused on the collection part of curation. There is more to it than that. You cannot 'curate' these samples on Earth because they don't exist on earth.

Value - I'm using this term in the sense of 'what would someone pay for these'? I'm using it much the same way that art is valued or classic cars are valued for auction, not the internal mysteries of motivation or the commoditized value of a good like cold rolled steel or corn. In this case, like art, the provenance, authenticity and care of the instance is generally considered essential and therefore why the 'curation' does actually have a meaningful role in the value (at least by virtue of not destroying it along the way).

It's also a crap shoot when you try to solve a routine task. You might read through 1500 lines of people arguing before you get to the right answer, get an almost right answer, or no answer.

If you are working in a language which has good documentation (say Python or Java) you are best off learning how to look up the right answers in the official manual quickly and let your competitors waste time with stack overflow.
That’s not quite correct - upscale of diversity is seen as an industry issue; creators of children’s books are mostly white and predominantly female. Interesting breakdown from a UK literacy charity: https://www.booktrust.org.uk/globalassets/resources/represen...
yeah, I grew up on a farm which is where loads of children books take place. We had to take a car literally everywhere, including our mailbox.

I'll agree with this, but want to clarify that the education I would reference isn't necessarily formal higher education, but educational reforms at primary and secondary levels to include more useful life skills like logic, finance, and understanding of civic duties including the legal system.

That's what's been told by experts on our side at least. The majority of their arcade collection was still 2D though, and they probably have considered it to be too expensive to bring that 3D tech to the homes. Especially Daytona looks much worse on the Saturn than on arcade, so there's that at least. Their 3D tech was much inferior to what SGI offered, and it might have been that they didn't want to give up on what they developed in-house. At least the part that they added 3D very late in the development cycle is very clear if you look at the system architecture, the rest might very well be up for discussion.
Sexism. Maybe even racism at some level.

Really I think prejudices operate all the time in all sorts of ways. I say that not to be dismissive — I think all forms of them are a problem — but I think some of them rise to a certain level of societal awareness because of the numbers of people affected.
No but when figuring out what informs a price you want to look at supply and demand first. There’s room for other variables, but you normally start there.

EDIT: While I’m inside the edit window, let me throw in another big variable as an example. Costs are another factor that inform a price, and a big one. You could make a case that it deserves higher billing than supply and demand, but if your costs are $X but you can only sell your widget for $X-1, and not $X+>=0, then $X-1 is your price ceiling. Your business is unprofitable and losing money.

I’m trying to be careful with my words but I still seem to be leaving some people with the impression that I think supply and demand is the only variable that informs a price. It’s not, but it’s still incredibly important and often dismissed as a non-factor when discussing San Francisco rental and real estate prices with San Franciscans.

The most expensive single part of the custom mechanical keyboards is the case. If you want a high quality aluminum case, those usually double or triple the price of the keyboard. Off-the-shelf options that use plastic cases are probably your best option to minimize costs. Kinesis makes a few models that are pretty nice. Ultimate Hacking Keyboard is just under $300 (w/out shipping). X-Bows is around $200.

DIY boards with sandwich case is the cheapest option, but they don't look or feel anywhere near as robust as boards with full case design. You also need to factor in cost of tools to assemble one, and switches and keycaps, so it actually ends up being pretty close to the examples above.

I'm quite fond of the kits sold by https://www.littlekeyboards.com/ They have a good selection of some of the more popular split ergonomic keyboard designs mostly from Japanese keyboard designers with different kits, incl. different case options. I believe they will also assemble the keyboards for you at extra cost.
Zoning is a result of NIMBYism.

NIMBYism is a result of people who really want to protect the value of their land. Some of these people will be quite desperate to do this because they're highly leveraged. Negative equity is a good incentive to turn up to your local planning meetings and inhibit development.

Just ordered a second replacement battery in under 5 years for a Dell XPS laptop due to the battery swelling. The first was replaced under warranty (and the trackpad was also replaced as it had been slightly bent).

The laptop is now out of warranty, so I contacted Dell to see about a replacement battery. "Sorry, we don't support laptops more than 4 years old" was the response. The support person suggested I source a replacement battery on Ebay and find a local laptop repair place to do the swap.

I deliberately chose to purchase a high spec (for the time), expensive laptop so it would have good longevity and previously I have had good support from Dell. Seriously disappointed by Dell's response this time.

Will be giving careful consideration to repair-ability and long term support before making another laptop purchase.
> Who the hell wants to create new blocks for each sub-heading and paragraph when they're writing regular articles? The old editor is much easier to use.

You add new paragraphs by just pressing enter, and you make it a heading by typing (part of) "/heading". It's less work than in the old editor, and it even produces reasonable markup (entirely unlike the old editor). If you don't want to design a new web page, just... don't? You don't need to press every button available.

I'll probably start a language war with this comment, I sure hope not.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean with just "static", I'm assuming static types. But wouldn't a language with static types and a repl not be as powerful as if it was dynamic instead? In the end, you want to be able to redefine everything via the repl in your runtime, and if there is types to be checked all the time and the compiler has to do extra steps for each eval, it'll get in your way and make it harder to monkey-patch things.
I understand your disdain for their new editor, but it is not required. The great part about Wordpress is the ecosystem of plugins and customizability of the CMS. You can just add the Classic Editor plugin and you can use the old editor - it is that simple.

If the editor is laggy it is because of the server / infrastructure you are using, not the editor. I can guarantee this as a fact.

I wouldn't brush off Wordpress. I've used pretty much every CMS on the market with client work and Wordpress is the one that I prefer the most for websites, hands down. For custom applications, I prefer Contentful for the backend CMS. There is a reason that Wordpress is #1 and has the market share it does. It is not flawless, but it is the best once you get to know it. Especially when you know how to optimize and debug problems.

If you are just doing a pet project and simple blog and you don't want to spend a few minutes to figure things out, then it might not be for you. There are many options for a simple blog. Like any technology worth knowing, in order to maximize its features you need to learn how it works. Best of luck to you.
No and if it came up it would work against you. It means you are working for basically free for Google at least you can put it on your resume although that might work against you.
Might be a little off topic, but what’s with the ”written in” obsession? From my perspective it’s so irrelevant compared to well tested, design, architectured, community engagement, track record, performance and usability.

Call me crazy, but how does the language you do this in become relevant? As a reference perhaps? Only the best of intentions here, have i missed a paticular pov that makes this extra relevant?
>Besides skills, I think it comes down to your attitude and how you relate to your younger co-workers

Also an engineer in my mid-40's. This is key. You need to be the "cool" dad in the room, and someone people can go to for hard/difficult problems. You also have to stay relevant and keep your skills up to date. Talk about the great ramen place near your house, not how you had to solve Y2K problems with COBOL 20 years ago.

The worst case scenario is if you're a bootcamp grad at 40+, you're gonna have all the problems of ageism without any of the experience to counteract it.

Mechanical Keyboards are nice obviously for the tactile difference and impact on typing speed and sensitivity, but for me the game changer was switching to a split keyboard for the ergonomics. I have always had shoulder pain, and tightness in my triceps. No matter how much I worked on ergonomics .. mouse position, height, etc. I have very broad shoulders/chest, so putting my hands on the keyboard always bowed my chest in and rotated both shoulders slightly forward.

I use the UltimateHackingKeyboard (UHK) now for over a year, and my shoulder and arm pain have all but disappeared. The UHK comes with a relatively short 3-4 inch cable to connect the two halves, and I found that was even to close together. I've since replace with a 12 inch cable and each half of the keyboard sits directly in front of the corresponding shoulder. This lets my arms, pecs,triceps, and back muscles all be in a relaxed position.

That said, this is one of those things that might be best relegated to the "Phase 0" APIs now that there is a better way to do things (e. g. postMessage).
I am definitely not kidding. The Tesla Model 3 costs twice as much as low-end new cars: https://www.motortrend.com/news/top-10-cheapest-new-cars/

It's also important to note that a lot of car purchasers buy used cars, because the low end of the new market is too expensive for them.

And really the appropriate comparison versus food is the transport sector, not cars alone. Cars are, as I said, the rich end of the market. In many places, cars are less popular than motorcycles, scooters, and bikes. I don't see any reason to think Tesla has an advantage going downmarket there. Indeed, as a luxury brand, there are significant brand barriers to them going lower in the car market, let alone down to scooters.

My favorite children's book growing up (the embarrassingly named Captain Underpants) was definitively suburban.

More generally, I guess I'd question what it means to portray a house as suburban. The author seems to be assuming that anywhere with cool nature stuff in walking distance is rural, and that's not true; my definitively suburban house growing up was within easy walking distance of a pretty well-forested park on one side and a creek on the other.

It is a bit more complicated. Sbcl, as an example, does check types on defun statements. Some it will just warn about, but some will prevent the completion.
Could you expand a bit on that?

I'm having a hard time making the connection between declining efficiency and there necessarily being something broken about the science.

To expand just a bit: Scannell seems to be primarily focused on the disease model as the root issue here. This is curious to me. My understanding is that drugs fail primarily in two ways:

1) It's ineffective - fails to treat the disease. Which is partially covered by model validity, but also impacted by pharmacokinetics and distribution. Essentially your molecule can work, it just can't get where it needs to go in a high enough concentration to make a difference.

2) It's unsafe - your molecule is toxic either acutely or long term.

The data[0] I'm aware of indicates that these issues occur with roughly equal frequency. (My assumptions being: failure in Phase 1 trials are an issue of safety, failure in phase 2 can be caused by safety or effectiveness). Which for me calls into question the focus solely on good disease models.

It was so not about comparing, but learning c/c++ is often a less fun experience due to either the write / compile / debug cycle or the heavy tooling required.

A c/cpp repl would make people fiddle around and have a rapid intuition. Then they go without.

The biggest problem is that people seem unwilling to change their mind. People base their whole identity on their opinions and it’s getting worse.

I think it’s because the internet allows the people who have dumb ideas to meet other likeminded people. They can now form groups. And now it’s harder to be open to other opinions, because the existence of your group validates your opinion.

Check Facebook Groups. It’s a cesspool.
Why do you say that?

Most printer companies make their money off of the ink/toner for consumer products. The printers themselves are usually close to break even prices. That doesn't leave much room for open source competitors.

This is interesting. What mechanisms do you see enabling this?
I bought an ergonomic, mechanical keyboard last year, since my decade-old Logitech keyboard broke and there were very few commercial replacements like it. I even bought a set of comparatively cheap keycaps -- having used Dvorak for 15 years, it's nice to finally have a keyboard with correctly labelled keys.

But I find it very strange that some of the most popular mechanical keyboards are much less ergonomic than a cheap Dell keyboard -- especially the Planck Keyboard, and anything with a fixed 1970s "wedge" shape.

In an effort to show there are some reasonable options, I made (strongly deriving from an earlier website on GitHub) and continue to maintain a gallery of ergonomic mechanical keyboards: https://aposymbiont.github.io/split-keyboards/

When running `npm install` without the mitigation, the attacker can steal your source code right away, among other things.

Also, developers adding new packages could compromise their environment because that's done running e.g. `npm install react`.
I think there are two problems here.

One; the "audiophile" mindset has afflicted mechanical keyboards -- most people are buying keyboards for the purpose of showing off their keyboards, rather than to enhance their ability to interact with computers. Actual functionality is kind of an afterthought, and style is very important to people.

Two; it's easy enough to make your own keyboard out of commodity parts that there might not be any market for unusual designs. What is available in bulk is what is profitable to manufacture in bulk, and that's what you see advertised in your "social media marketing bs". But, it's easy to make your own and opt-out of all of that.

I wanted a split keyboard with the two halves a certain distance apart, thumb keys that were the exact size of my thumbs, and a numberpad in the middle. Shockingly, no such thing has ever been manufactured in bulk! So I drew one in CAD, printed it out, popped in the keyswitches, hand-wired the rows and columns, connected it to a microcontroller, downloaded commodity firmware to the microcontroller, and I had the exact keyboard I had always wanted. (Turns out: I hated it! But... you don't know until you try.)

I guess what I'm saying is that you should skip the BS and make your own.

It's just personal preference. I can't use a smaller keyboard than 65% (no function key row, no numpad, but with an arrow and pgdn/pgup cluster), but I have friends who swear by 40% keyboards. Whatever works for you.
I don't think framing it in terms of 'what could have been' was really necessary. To me it seems like there was absolutely no chance of him ever being the 'other' guy to begin with. It was just another temporary escapist fantasy like the cyber stuff.

What happened doesn't resemble a meaningful fork between two possible lives. Fate (and Apple) really made the decision for him, it's implausible he would have ever rejected that job given the circumstances.

I had the same experience with older students. They always had a certain perspective that was lacking with the younger students. I wouldn't say they were harder working, or less harder working, but I think they took things in stride a bit better, and were better with time management. They also tended to be coming from some other areas first, and so understood bigger picture issues a bit better.
