I think PG-13 had more to do with it than anything else. If you’re coming from an R rating, reaching PG might destroy your movie. PG-13 is far more reachable. No one is trying to peddle serious quantities of Mean Girls merchandise.

Sure, any biological woman can participate. And if everyone is cool with it, weaker biological men can participate too if they're not capable of competing in the male divisions. Maybe we need a third league for non-binary biology, or with divisions by level of proficiency rather than paying any attention to biological sex at all.
Just from my own observation recently it's also the case with French, German and Israeli TV. Much more nuanced, realistic etc.

What am I missing here:

"IPOs have been on a tear since last summer as markets rallied following the Federal Reserve’s moves to support the U.S. economy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet their popularity has been eroding as more companies choose to go public through mergers with special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) or direct listings."
> "Let's hit the popular dark web forums." isn't usually how criminals operate, based on my limited understanding.

Indeed. Most cybercrime, like most crime in general, is primarily interested in just making money as effectively, efficiently, and safely as possible. No point stirring up a bunch of big hornet's nests when you don't need to.

Whatever it is, it's definitely not ordinary activity. Non-exhaustive list of some possibilities I'd imagine:

- Blackhats who are part of that sphere with a chip on their shoulder

- Blackhats trying to start, promote, or perhaps (false-flag style) direct suspicion towards a competing forum or other platform

- Whitehats / greyhats who just don't like fraudsters and thieves and want to fuck with them and give them a taste of their own medicine

- Intelligence agencies / law enforcement

I do. I don't have a car, and I live in a college town where the nearest decent grocery store is about 3 miles.

I have a decent experience. The biggest con is that you "have" to give 15-20% tips (technically you don't have to but I try to be nice), I use express so afaik the other fee is only about $3. Also, shoppers don't always know where to find obscure items so they just get refunded, even when the item is in stock. But otherwise, shoppers are very nice, 99% of the time they get the correct items and only the replacements I specify. When you check out you specify a 2 hour timeframe where shoppers can deliver, in my experience they usually deliver on the very early side of the timeframe unless you specify "next 2 hours" immediately.
The original Office was an outstanding example of portraying normal people. The US version pushed a good bit more to some people being a bit cartoonish.
I think it’s kinda like how once digital photography became good enough you didn’t have to worry about wasting film. You can take 20 pics and later pick the best one, rather than spending 20 minutes trying to get the perfect shot.

With software how it is today the “outer software” engineering has created a little virtual realm where things can go haywire and fail but it’s in a mostly padded room. And of course it’s all running within very well regulated and stable hardware.

Maybe coding itself isn’t engineering anymore than welding or running cables is but both computer and software engineering was required for coding and to make the code do anything significant it takes some engineering, or you could just start welding shit together!
Who cares if "instagram opens -30% on their first day"? As a company, your objective should be raising the capital you need at the least dilution, not burning money for the sake of some articles that everyone will forget in one week.

We have the same where I grew up. Electricity is a national monopoly. Water was one under a national mandate of small provider until the early 2000.
My father went to one of the last of the one-room schools, in eastern Washington state. He said about a quarter of the class would be listening to lessons at any time, the rest doing assignments or, if they had finished, a project chosen from the Book of Knowledge, an encyclopedia geared for that, that all such schools had; or, helping younger kids with their work.

The faster younger kids sat in lessons with the slower older ones. They all overheard lessons taught to older kids before they got there themselves.

Separating kids by age is historically new, harmful, and weird. Traditionally, younger learned from older, who learned better by needing to teach. The experience of teaching might be our greatest loss.
The Jenga scene to describe CBOs is quite cringe to me.

If a BBB tranche goes under, the investors in the BBB tranche get nothing to protect the AAA tranche (and above). In effect: BBB tranche can fail safely, that's the entire point of them.

That's why they only shorted the BBB tranche (with exception of Brownfield Capital, who did go all the way to the AA tranche). AA was safer and more reliable: so for a short its a riskier move to short.

------

The scene does in fact lay the ground basis of tranches and CDOs, which is better than most Hollywood movies. But its still filled with misconceptions, and the Jenga tower (though dramatic) isn't helping at all.

---------------

Synthetic CDOs was very poorly described. The "rating agency" scenes were pretty much purely fiction and just designed to enrage the audience and IMO unhelpful to the general discussion. Etc. etc.

----

CDOs of CDOs were accurately described IMO. Hammed up by explaining the "yesterday's fish in today's soup), but that at least is somewhat of an accurate analog.

------

I mean, it was a solid movie. But look, I know how reality works. I've actually taken the time to look at (some) of the Congressional Hearings and read some of the papers for how that whole thing worked back in 2008. And there are also some good Frontline Documentaries on the whole 2008 crisis in general.
> If your promotion criteria says that someone's qualified for a higher-level job because they've been doing good work in fair weather, you have absolutely no way to know whether they listen to their conscience

How can we possibly know if someone else listens to their conscience? Their conscience is not accessible to anyone else.

>Khrushchev may have intended for the people to view this as life under his predecessors. He did believe Stalin's reign had been problematic and probably saw himself as ushering in something new

I don't think it was just his self-image, I think I recall reading about the Cultural Revolution in China, and how some people there (Mao?) saw Khrushchev as kind of having betrayed the true path or whatever.

> ...beyond being statically typed and compiled?

What do you mean 'beyond'? It's not like there are many other languages that have compile-time polymorphism. (Java, Go, C, etc., don't.)

> memory safety, sum types (don't tell me std::variant is a valid replacement), move semantics, having pointers, classes, GC vs RAII, statement vs expressions... That's a lot of differences.

ML ignores the real performance and architecture considerations, so yeah, of course it is a simpler and more 'elegant' language. As a teaching aid, yeah, I think all C++ programmers should be forced to program something in an ML-derived language.

But once you start handling the real-world edge cases and requirements you'd end up in a place very similar to C++.

> stand ups which are supposed to be peer to peer as opposed to a more expert to non expert relationship.

Right - I'm taking the assumption that everyone will have their own area of expertise, and "the expert" for a given issue might be any one of your peers.

> If you’re self conscious about asking questions, how is it easier to do it in the moment with your entire team also listening in, as opposed to a direct IM, or email if you’re worried about disturbing the busy expert?

Because there's a specific time at which you're expected to do it. It's very easy to keep putting off an IM/email, thinking you'll just spend a bit more time trying to figure it out yourself first. And the expert has already been disturbed, so there's no need to feel guilty about interrupting them.

> Wouldn’t it be much bette to setup a 1 hour meeting on day 1 of the project with the expert (doesn’t stand up add a whole role, scrum master, whose only purpose is to direct people to the correct experts, basically? Well, use them if you don’t know who the expert is...prior to scrum we simply went to our team lead for situations like that). A 30 minute follow up at the end of the week.

No, having experienced both approaches. You're so much more productive if you have direct, daily access to the expert. On day 1 you don't know what questions to ask; most of what a programmer spends their time doing is exploring the problem space. If you've got a daily iteration cycle where you ask a couple of questions, try things out, and then come back the next day with some follow ups based on what you've learnt, you get a whole lot more done.

> That’s 3 hours worth of time from the expert in a span of 3 weeks, but the expert gets to hold forth for those entire 3 hours, without having to waste 12 out of 15 mins listening to useless crap. That’s a straight up 20% saving over the stand ups, gets you a full 3 hours from them, as opposed to 20% of the time, gets their attention in decent chunks of times, where you can have a real discussion, interrupts them 4 times over 15 working days as opposed to 15 times, and only includes those who are directly relevant to the discussion as opposed to everybody.

It doesn't end up being "useless crap"; everyone is part of the same team delivering the same product, so it's important to have cross-pollination about what's everyone else is doing.

Of course if someone has particular expertise that warrants holding forth for an hour on the subject, it might be worth scheduling a time for them to do that. But there's definitely no substitute for having everyone available every day, at the same time as the rest of the team.
It looks like you're misunderstanding those ideas. And it seems maybe the point of the article as well, since in a way it argues that both sexuality and body positivity (less perfection, more attraction) was better in older movies.

If you really have such strong opinions about this, can I tempt you to read what "body positivity" is actually about? And why "objectively beautiful"... is pretty subjective?

There is no evidence for this, you're claiming this purely out of personal bias.

Just because nobody bothered yet to define a rigorous mental model of 'Ship of Theseus' doesn't mean such a model doesn't exist in principle.

(In fact, the job of programmers is exactly that - to define rigorous models for things that nobody bothered to define before.)

Who controls spending? Especially on transfer programs, which represent the bulk of the deficit? (It’s not the president)

http://goliards.us/adelphi/deficits/index.html is more useful. It shows party control of the presidency, house, and senate and deficits each year, not just at end of term.

Looks like the ideal for deficit control is to have a democratic president and republican control of both houses of Congress. Unified government by either party leads to less constraint on spending.

We all have to be extra kind to ourselves (and to each other) during the pandemic. It's an exceptionally unusual, transient time. Still, it is a long time to be socially distanced in various ways from coworkers, lovers, friends, etc.

Things will get better soon.

And yes, I'd imagine that a more similarly gendered and oriented therapist would find it easier to relate to your concerns. But maybe just being direct with your current therapist would help. There may be a good reason she's redirecting you to more general social aspects, or maybe she's not trained to deal with male sexuality.

I picked up talking with my hands from my father, who has a very animated style of speaking and storytelling. I remember consciously making the decision to use gestures to "annotate" my speech when I was in my early teens, and doing so has paid off (as far as I can tell).

I find that I'm able to convince people of things and explain abstract concepts with much more ease than other people. This holds true even if I don't fully understand the idea I'm explaining. Something about being able to "mold" the space in front of me lends another dimension to weave the fabric of language around.

As a personal anecdote: I won the Marconi-Samueli Award for an app I built when I was 14 called MathSuite. It could parse algebraic equations and yield a result, and it did so offline (think Wolfram Alpha). I'd built the thing from scratch, and on the day of presentation, my computer had crashed and I couldn't ship a version of that app that would run.

Somehow, I convinced the judges of the veracity of the screenshots and claims on my presentation poster, and explained to them the potentially huge ramifications of my app, without being able to demonstrate it working. One judge commented that I had a "very expressive and mature style of explanation" — really, I think my hand gestures were a huge part of it.

I doubt this is the only reason, but one contributing factor is probably that the cited articles declaring a game as "best of all time" are often retrospectives from a number of years after the game released. E.G: Portal was released in 2007, yet all-but-one of its references are from the 2010s/2020s. Given another 10 years, there'll probably be at least a few more games in the 2012-2021 sections.

which sucks - but it points to a problem of under-specifying the "rules".
