> I often get the impression that some people (not the PC specifically) here are either ridiculously anal about English or genuinely do not parse sentences the way I do.

People with autistic traits sometimes parse sentences in an overly literal or precise manner. I rarely do this anymore, but when I was a child and teenager I did it more often.

When I'm speaking of "autistic traits", I'm not speaking just of people diagnosed with autism/ASD (who are of course represented here), but also people with broad autism phenotype (BAP), the subclinical manifestation of ASD. BAP is when you have more of the symptoms of ASD than the average person does, but not enough to justify an actual diagnosis of ASD. BAP is quite common in software engineers, and STEM professionals more generally, so I think there are likely a lot of people on this site with BAP (albeit most of them have probably never heard of it.) The people you are talking about quite possibly do have some degree of BAP, and this behaviour is quite possibly a manifestation of their BAP.

> And that's not even to mention that the assets in a Roth IRA are essentially worthless to him - he's not old enough to make withdrawals or take distributions tax-free and you can't borrow against a Roth IRA

I don't think that's remotely true. For a normal person with tens of thousands or even a few hundred thousand in an IRA that money is basically useless.

But for someone with billions in an IRA? He can almost certainly start a public company and use a maze of shell companies to let him do whatever he wants with the money.
I spent about 3 months full time with Godot and was enjoying it, but ran into some bugs that undermined my trust in the Godot developers to the point where I had to move away.

For example: if you hold a reference to object in your script, and the object is removed from the scene, the engine can reuse the address for a new object, but it will result in your script holding a reference to the wrong object.

I believe its the object pooling system not talking to the scrips. This bug is a few years old and I believe it wont be fixed till v4.

Most people don't seem to encounter it, and I worked around it fine buy just making sure I manually null out any references when they leave the scene.

The real WTF which made me finally say this engine is not for me is that they changed the behavior so that it won't happen in Debug, but will still happen in Release. Different behavior for Debug and Release is an even bigger bug!

Its such a rare and sneaky bug, and when it starts happening in your release you can't even debug it!

Small update: I reported the issue on Github in September 2019. From reading the comments it sounds like the inconstant behavior was only in from 3.2.2 to 3.2.3 version (~6 months) then fixed in 3.3. However a user is reporting that the issue is still happening in 3.3 as recently as May this year.
And Roth IRAs are funded post-tax. That means he paid taxes on the income already, before he put the money into the IRA. That's why it's "tax-free".
The paltry amount he invested was hardly a risk. Had it not panned out, he would have been out basically zilch.

> Look far north. The village doesn't have clean water, but the local chief has two hummers and brand new ATVs on the front lawn. Guess where your tax money went...

I'm not going to try justifying a Hummer, because I don't know what intrinsic value it holds in their circumstances. I have been to northern communities where expensive pickup trucks were the norm, for very good reasons. There are many parts of Canada where a car is basically useless. The communities are small enough that one can walk from end to end in a quarter of an hour, yet the roads leading to the town would be impassible to anything less than a decent truck (and even then are impassible to any vehicle at certain times of the year). That is before utility is taken into consideration. You won't get very far with hauling loads of firewood home and would not enjoy the trip to the dump with your household trash in a car. Owning a truck also makes more sense for the trip to the city, where virtually everything from food to furniture will be less expensive. Arguing that they should own inexpensive cars because it supports the suburban lifestyle of the south is even more tone-deaf than arguing that people in the suburbs should use public transit because it is sufficient for downtown residents.

Forcing a company to face civil consequences and bad PR hardly compares with an institutionalized, brutal assault on human rights that tortured and murdered ~3000 people over three centuries, some by being burned alive.

It DOES, however, bear at least a chance of the OP getting their own property (data) back from the hostage taker.

Most importantly, by creating consequences for malicious action, the OP has a good chance (if successful) of PROTECTING FUTURE VICTIMS.

When you're being attacked, you don't just lay back and take it because it's easier. You hit back, because otherwise the bad guy is going to do the same - or worse - to somebody else, next.

Really? IF the US is that aggressive about their tax dollars, what was the full fallout of the Panama Papers again?

True, many other government contractor projects have been effective graft vehicles. The F-35 jet and the SLS rocket are other, very current examples. People have begun to catch on about nuke plants; they started out as a scam to make the uranium economy more favorable for weapons work, and that has been baked in.

Notable recent exceptions include solar and wind farms, partly I expect because people can tell how much they should cost: N panels x $P per panel, N turbines x $P per turbine. Also, people doing them tend to be idealists; they want the most power out that money can buy, anywhere else if not here.

Sort of. The parenthesis around an expression like (a b +) imply a result of some type. That type is defined by the whatever type promotion rules are in place for the operands and operators. Thus, if a and b are integers in the range -MIN_VALUE to MAX_VALUE, and + is defined as integer addition, then the 'type' implied by (a b +) is an integer in that range (or possibly an error condition, if under/overflow).

The reason you don't see a stack language that evaluates from left to right is because then it wouldn't be a stack language.
You can buy publicly traded companies without going through brokers/stock exchanges.

My issue is that as a society, we want a percentage of the wealth that is created to be democratically controlled. We can debate which percentage and how that should be acquired, but the end social contract is that part of all wealth produced has some democratic component to it. For the last 5 is that decades, we've had groups of people gradually trying to evade more and more of that responsibility, and we aren't going to produce a functioning society that way.

From the cited (18 U.S.C. 32):

> Amendments to 18 U.S.C. § 32 enacted in 1984 expand United States jurisdiction over aircraft sabotage to include destruction of any aircraft in the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States or any civil aircraft used, operated or employed in interstate, overseas, or foreign air commerce.

The special aircraft jurisdiction in question requires the aircraft to be “in flight”, where the definition of “in flight” oddly enough depends on the aircraft having “doors”.[1]

A plain reading of the statute indicates that it does not apply to unmanned aircraft unless they are engaged in interstate commerce. But I am not a lawyer.

> engaged in the authorized operation of such aircraft

Perpetrating a crime like criminal trespass or harassment is by definition not an authorized operation of any aircraft.

An FAA advisory on the topic [2] claims broad authority to supersede local regulation, but is careful to refer only to “navigable airspace”, and notes that

> Laws traditionally related to state and local police power – including land use, zoning, privacy, trespass, and law enforcement operations – generally are not subject to federal regulation.

I should have been more careful in my wording in the above comment. What you can and cannot do to a trespassing unmanned drone operating below the navigable airspace ceiling on your property is going to depend on the applicable state and local laws. For example, most municipalities have laws against use of firearms within city limits.

No, I’m talking about the advertising dollars. You’re taking about something else. Ultimately the amount of attention at any given moment is fixed yet the amount of money that be spent pursuing such attention is unlimited.

Just because money being spent has a positive ROI doesn’t mean advertisements are not zero sum.

By your logic ads can be a disruptive experience and hence negative sum. In fact I’d be surprised if isn’t the case. Most people find ads to be annoying.

I mean, you're already not allowed to use a Roth to invest in a company that you're an officer of, major shareholder in, etc (with many other restrictions), so I'm not sure how adding a new law would have changed this (since the existing ones appear to have just been ignored)
> And that's not even to mention that the assets in a Roth IRA are essentially worthless to him - he's not old enough to make withdrawals or take distributions tax-free and you can't borrow against a Roth IRA. The funds are essentially unavailable to him for years to come unless he wants to pay taxes and penalties.

If he took all of that money out now he'd be looking at losing half of it to taxes and penalties, leaving him with about $2.5B which is several of orders of magnitude more than he put into it. That's far from "essentially worthless".

Have you really been looking?

Like really hard?

Just asking.

My first guess is that you're facing a triple bang situation

Everyone in a hiring situation hates you because you are young, semi successful, had the audacity to try your own thing, had the temerity to think you could escape and were therefore better than everyone else so now they need you to suffer -- along with a few other dynamics.

Are you specifically looking for junior and entry roles? I would. If you end up being too good then just get promoted early or bounce if it's too late.

I'd look at startups, fast growing and maturing startups like Stripe and post-public startups, and all the typical stuff applies when trying to get a job.

Also look at dev-adjacent jobs like tech support dev evangelist, tam, etc. The not-strictly support ones will be more open to proactive people with skills outside of just coding and complete unquestioning obedience.

5 months is a good amount of time but getting hired after just three would be a miracle. 6 months closer to normal. A year before we know you're doing something wrong.

I am also a first generation Canadian. If you became a citizen at least in the past 10 years (not sure about before), you perhaps remember the Discover Canada guide[0], which we were asked to study prior to taking our citizenship oath. It discusses the multicultural nature of Canada and gives special mention to the unique status of its indigenous peoples. When we choose to become Canadians, we accept the same responsibilities that Canadians whose ancestors were born here have. That includes sharing responsibility for reconciliation, and perhaps also reparations for the impact of poor decisions that were made in generations past.

One outcome of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report (published 2015) was a proposal made for a change to the oath of citizenship to clarify this responsibility[1]. That change has now been made. It was used for the first time on June 22[2]. Hopefully this will help new Canadians to better understand what becoming a Canadian means.

There is no intention here to assign guilt. There is simply an understanding that as Canadians we have a responsibility to the indigenous peoples of the land that we now inhabit.
