The problem with resume guidelines is that there are too many factors that you cannot control. What makes a good resume is widely dependent on culture, and that includes the place you live, the company culture, and even the personal preferences of the HR folks.

Any tips, even along the lines of "you should not even need a resume" are just that: tips. They might be valuable tips in one situation and completely miss the mark in another.

It's probably easier to compile a list of things to avoid in a resume than with a positive list of things to do. But the first of the two would likely be so trivial as to be of little use. I'm thinking about "insights" such as "avoid typos". But the further you move away from such low hanging fruits, the more you enter the territory of "it depends".

The purpose of a resume is to introduce yourself to the hiring company as a contender. It's a sales pitch in a way, sent to people who are very experienced in receiving sales pitches. But you're not a snake oil salesman, the goal is not to get them to buy something they don't really need. The goal is to transmit the most complete picture of the relevant aspects of yourself.

My personal thinking has always been that HR folks have seen it all. There's no point trying to impress through style - referring to both your great visual layout as well as your choice of wording. Sure, you should not suck at both: if you cannot even align your indentation, perhaps I'm less inclined to buy the 20+ years of experience in the office. But other than that, all the bells and whistles will probably do little to impress.

Banks use energy.
Thanks. Your comment sent me to Wikipedia, where I found this related snippet:

> In the year 2000, 23 years after production, the radioactive material inside the RTG had decreased in power by 16.6%, i.e. providing 83.4% of its initial output; starting with a capacity of 470 W, after this length of time it would have a capacity of only 392 W. A related loss of power in the Voyager RTGs is the degrading properties of the bi-metallic thermocouples used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy; the RTGs were working at about 67% of their total original capacity instead of the expected 83.4%. By the beginning of 2001, the power generated by the Voyager RTGs had dropped to 315 W for Voyager 1.

There's also a nice picture of one deployed on the moon. The dust on the moon's surface looks spectacular in that picture.

It is not win. It is simply assuming and claiming she is getting unfair credit without bothering to look at the case -- on the basis of her gender. The comment did not asked for tldr, the comment literally made claims about her lack of achievements.

Admitting that you did not checked it and being theoretically open to change if you would bothered does not change all that much. Plus, this is just how bias works. In assumptions claim when you don't check evidence.
Clearly no and clearly yes: the sails won't provide auxiliary power, the electricity required to supply the navigation instruments (and lights, and the fridge, and sail automaton and in this case perhaps a Jacuzzi drawing more power than a village). But propulsion power, in favorable conditions, sure. And there's no lower bound for propulsion anyways: on a calm day with zero current you could run the boat on Jeff Bezos pulling it on a stand-up paddle board, infinitesimally slow.

In OSS you offer something for free with no guarantees and few strings attached and in return hopefully get public contributions. You might get something on top of that in the form of donations, but trying to project growth, incomes and hires seems rather naive. If that kind of product development is what you want, you better sell a product.
Mathematica (and I guess Alpha now) has always had good support for units and dimensional analysis:

> can and do make the case for spending a lot of money on SaaS products and hiring people. But there is no way in the world I can stand in front of company leadership and ask for money to spend on something that I already get for free. I'd look out of touch with the realities of running a business and the request would be roundly shouted down.

You're right is very difficult. It feels like there needs to be a product version of these tools, I can definitely explain to my partners that we need this tool and it costs £xxx. But to explain that we should pay for free tools when we might be one of a very few that are is going to be a hard sell.

They'd probably make less money if you paid them, that's the problem.

This is something that gets parroted A LOT, and has been for at least 20 years now.

I'm not saying that you're wrong, but I'd really, really like to see some actual numbers on this.

My biggest gripe with this theory, is that it assumed all responsibility and decision-making on a single worker. In every other industry I've worked, where employees have the access to some extremely costly "kill switch", where you can basically bring down the whole system, it's always - ALWAYS something that needs to go through multiple people.

That also goes for more fundamental roles, like design and implementation. These things go through multiple people, reviews, and later audits.

I'd be amazed if internal guidelines and regulations at FAANG behemoths allow potential multi-million decisions to rest on single employees.
It appears to be holding up well at 27 years past the age spec too. It is astonishing how something sent out when I was a toddler is still working till this date; kudos to the engineers.
LEDs help a lot. Partly because the waste less heat but also because IR spectrum is not present in LED light.

I have worked for Canal+ a long, long time ago and I have been on the set couple of times. When the studio was lit you felt hot even though there was air conditioning.

It is basically the same as meeting sunshine on a winter day with no air movement. The air is cold but the sunshine on your skin makes you feel much hotter than it really is.

95+% of people don't use torrenting/pirating. That worked out fine. Not great, but it's not the total failure you make it out to be.

No, but it would add more friction if you did not have a choice of legal exchanges.
I know who are there, and the fact that they rather contribute to the private APIs than comunity tools kind of says it all.

As an example, mesh shaders or ray tracing APIs weren't created on those commitites, rather yet another set of extensions taken from proprietary APIs.
I would say that, generally, higher complexity results in more possible attack vectors. Give that assumption, any client high on the list has more attack vectors than ones down the list.

I also think, though, that any open source client likely does a good job regardless of feature density, since its likely going to use well vetted code in core components.

Saying that, for example, Microsoft's or Apple's code isnt well vetted is unfair, but the amount of eyes that have seen the Microsoft html renderer vs the, say, WebKit one, is likely smaller and less diverse.

Because you don't want to learn and maintain a new kind of software in a small organisation with limiter resources, for example. Each new language, framework, database and other kind of tool adds a lot of cognitive load for everyone involved.

The irony about this is that it's the same companies then complaining that development is not being continued or not going in the direction they want.

Essentially what you're saying is that the realities of running a business is the equivalent of a millionaire going to the local soup kitchen/food bank and taking as much food as possible and then complaining about the food.
that would require a total shift in the industry. closed source isn't different, tons of startup are unsustainable and only vie for adoption
I'm a libertarian who supports UBI. Or I did until I realized my conception of it was different from most supporters.

Libertarians who support UBI think of it as replacing the other stuff. This is a wildly unpopular opinion on the left, who want everything else (welfare, college, childcare, healthcare, retirement) and UBI. Any libertarian non-corporatist supporter of UBI would not only have to win against his better-funded corporatist opponents, but would need to win with a "Let's get rid of social security for this other thing" pitch. You're more likely to find Bigfoot riding a unicorn.

If it is 2 times per year and extends for a period of 2 months, that is almost half of the entire year.

That sounds crazy to me, I would never ever work 60 hours a week without getting paid for it. Many game companies make ridicolous amounts of money, there is no reason why they shouldn't pay a reasonable salary for it.

60 hour work weeks are insane and you should never accept that.
I would have more sympathy for them if they didn't start leaning on core-js two years ago.

I get that two implementations of the same thing seem suboptimal, but Denis Pushkarev's, ahem, legal situation proved that sometimes you might want to do that.

Also with this move they freed up a lot of resources which previously went into maintaining their own polyfills and still there are problems? Where all that went?
Does City Power correct measure kVa
Does City Power correct measure kVa
The City of Johannesburg bills “Demand” or kVa for Large Power Users (Business clients) at the highest peak of usage during the last 12 months.
In terms of the City of Johannesburg Electricity by-law, demand is defined as follows:
"demand" means the power in kVA or kW of electricity measured over any period of thirty consecutive minutes;
The question is now:
Is it the highest peak in the 30 minute interval
Is it the base (lowest) usage in the 30 minute period
Is it the average usage over the 30 minute period.
The following aspects must be used in the answer of the question:
1. Spikes due to load shedding. It often happens that there is a spike of usage due to equipment, which was not put off during load shedding. The high usage may also be recorded due to an unstable network after the power is reconnected.
2. City Power does not have a forum to address incorrect spike readings.
3. The Rules of interpretation of by laws say that the by laws are interpreted against the Council. This implies that the most restrictive interpretation is used against the consumer.
4. The reference to 30 minutes in the by laws. The by laws expressly refer to 30 minute intervals. If there were no reference to intervals, then the definition would simply have to say “the highest peak during the past year”. We therefore hold the view that the base usage over the 30 minute interval must therefore be applied.
City Power fails to measure kVa correctly and bills clients on the highest peak (spike or no spike) over the last year.
We hold the view that the measurement and billing is contrary to the by law, unjust and unreasonable.
The effect of the illegal measurement and billing of kVa is massive.

I've recently written a units library for Nim [0]. It's still WIP, but it's already proven extremely useful for me as a physicist.

Thanks to Nim's strong type system and metaprogramming features, it allows for a fully compile time design, without any runtime overhead (in form of special unit objects or such things; everything is a `distinct float`).

In addition Nim's unicode support, the code even looks nice!

There's a reason the most popular media is video and images and the main social media platforms are practically platforms for sharing video and images.

The average person all over all the world is almost functionally illiterate (literacy level of a middle schooler or maybe high schooler, at best). They really, really don't want text. They'll only read as much as they have to, and they will definitely choose images over text if they can.
I’m happy with this if the borrowed money is used wisely!
I read earlier versions of the Actor proposal, and maybe I misunderstood, but it seemed like the design was oriented towards UIKit. That’s what made it interesting for me. Has that changed?

Specifically, actors would alleviate the the mental overhead of constant dispatch queue management littering iOS codebases. Certain UIKit classes would gain @UIActor and suddenly you get a compiler error if you try to modify a view from a background thread. I can’t seem to find any references to that in the current proposal.

Regardless, I’m excited for actors to land in the next release. I’m just concerned adoption will be similar to Swift 3’s do/try/catch syntax, which didn’t take off until UIKit converted all fallible synchronous methods from `(Data?, Error?)` to `throws`.
I think quark jokes are a bit cheesy myself. ;)
Ah yes... good old anecdotal evidence.
Your whole argument hinges on the fact that the publications are intentionally trying to smear Tesla and their AutoPilot feature. The fact of the matter is that those articles very clearly state that they're quoting what the police say about the crash.

From your The Verge article, that supposedly is the example of trying very hard not to divulge this fact.

> Authorities in Texas say two people were killed when a Tesla with no one in the driver’s seat crashed into a tree and burst into flames, Houston television station KPRC 2 reported.

It's the first line of the article.

> Preliminary reports suggest the car was traveling at a high rate of speed and failed to make a turn, then drove off the road into a tree. One of the men killed was in the front passenger seat of the car, the other was in the back seat, according to KHOU. Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman told KPRC that “no one was driving” the fully-electric 2019 Tesla at the time of the crash. It’s not yet clear whether the car had its Autopilot driver assist system activated.

That's the third paragraph. I don't think they're hiding that they're parroting police officials.

When making games are hard and make huge profit why are the salaries low?

I doubt the argument that there are vast number of game developers who are passionate and are willing to take low salary. The reason is if that is the case why don't they make their own games?

My hypothesis is to make game only few people in the team need high skill and the majority need low skill hence the compensation is low as the entry is easy and supply is high.
I used to work for AXA Health insurance.

Up until about 2017(!), they were reimbursing people for treatment which was claimed back (as opposed to billed to the insurance company directly) by cheque exclusively, and there were rumours from the finance department that this was because lots of people never bothered to cash in their cheques because of the hassle compared to receiving a direct debit.
It's a mildly interesting game theoretic problem, where if you are attacked and you pay, that wins over not paying -- but if you are not attacked and others pay, that loses you money because now you need insurance. So the actual optimum is for nobody to pay, but good luck on that.

Except oppression isn't necessarily an end and allowing certain groups to define oppression or deriving it from immutable historical fact simply creates another privileged class and gives one a stick to beat oppressors who may not even intentionally participate in so called "oppressive acts" with.

I argue fighting oppression is only useful insofar as it presents a utilitarian good for society and that certain levels of structural violence is necessary for nation states to function. At the end of the day, there always needs to be a (large) class of street sweepers, accountants and restaurant workers for the benefit of the rest of society.

> and so one can guess what correct fingering would be when there is no teacher around

At least in some cases, yes. For me, that's the real point of having a teacher - learning the thought process, not the pieces.

One thing worth mentioning is that sometimes the correct fingering for a piece is contextualized. There are pieces that you might treat as a goal in their own right, but they might also be just a stepping stone to other pieces. For example, you might see a sequence of three notes in the left hand, and there will be a "correct" fingering that's most comfortable for just those three notes. But the teacher that suggested this piece knows that those three notes can be seen as a simplified version of a six note pattern that occurs throughout a more difficult piece you will tackle later. So the "correct" fingering they suggest to you is the fingering that's most comfortable for the more difficult version you haven't played yet. You're not looking at the piece as-is, you're thinking of it in the context of what you'll eventually play and optimizing the fingering for performance of the target piece.

You will often hear that "correct" fingering is the one most comfortable. This is only partially true when you're in the early stages. Often, you go for something that's suboptimal in a particular piece because it will be more comfortable in another piece down the road.
And I thought that such awareness was a part of being good at one's job.
