> Someone on the conservative side of the spectrum, please enlighten me what the reasonable argument for justifying the past military action there is at this point...

I'd say that it's possible (quite possible) to be conservative and to be against foreign adventures. It's probably better to view a country as being occupied by multiple cohorts of political thought, one of which is a ruling class that likes to play Risk.

That ruling class has shifted party allegiance and probably will do so in the future.

In any case, from my uninformed armchair, it seems pretty obvious that it's easier to run foreign policy by attempting to influence the existing dictator (whether it's in Iraq or Libya or Syria) rather than install a new one with the attendant cost in blood and treasure.
Very much this. I also work in wood and it amazes people that it can often be easier to make 5 or 10 of something than just one simply because of the jigs we make.
As an aside, in 2021 Computer Modern looks really dated, especially for content that’s predominantly text rather than math. There are much better, more Unicode-friendly, and more typographically complete LaTeX fonts available.
the interesting follow up question would be: Are beautiful people more moral?

There certainly can be a reinforcement effect: If the world is nice to you, you are nice to the world. However, if you notice that the world is nice to you for no good reason (like your looks), you might abuse this, e.g. you take things for granted (e.g. people doing stuff for you) that you should not.
However, I'd bet most studies that would try to find out if beautiful people are more or less moral, couldn't be reproduced since there are way too many things that might affect this.
I agree on the personal discipline side, but I also think browsers can guide you towards a behavior with their design.

Give it a go and tell me if it improved your flow or not.

I get you on the whole messaging aspect, though I personally find it so useful for work. Ali and Mahyad can just send me pages without having to pollute Slack with a bunch of links.

You plan to make your own operating system? How will that work given your reliance on OS X?
This is extremely difficult to read

edit but I do want to address this point:

> Nope. It is not. Dull claim requires a dull answer but I’ll do you one better. Uber just raised $1.5B in senior notes due 2029. In plain language, this means that Uber is capable of raising money when it needs because there are investors out there who did their due diligence and concluded Uber will be good for its word.

$1.5B is less than 6 months of operating costs for Uber. This comment also excludes any information on the interest rate of the debt being raised here. Is it a low interest debt because the lenders have confidence in the company? Is it a high interest predatory loan because Uber is desperate and needs cash? The fact that someone can get a long term note is, on its own, not useful information at all.
Sure... in the sense that everyone's job at a company is to make profit.

By the same argument you could say that everything is marketing, including designing and making the product. This is true, I guess. You might borrow a mac for a week from a buddy before buying it. Still, making a laptop is generally not described as marketing.
Prevented waste is a lot of it. Factories used to produce full on until inventory built up too much, and then they did clearance sales to empty it, or sometimes sent it right to a landfill. Now with just in time there is less produced than before, but it is only produced as needed, so the total produced is less, but what is produced is what is needed.
First impression is that I wouldn't go near it until it settles down a bit — it was on v1.7 in May and now on version 3 already.

Great that it's under active development, but changes to my scripts are infrequent and slow. I wouldn't want to be touching an old script on a server somewhere saying "How do I do X in ZX again?" and everything I find online is now for v15 while I'm still on v3.

Maybe if it had plans around a LTS version I'd take a look at that stage.

To be honest though I like doing things in bash. You can get pretty far & it's 100% portable. If something's too complicated for bash it's probably time it's not just a simple CLI script anymore, in my experience.
And yet still many many many business have SPF records that do not pass validation which IMO is worse than not having them at all
The Taliban wanted to surrender in 2001. https://www.nytimes.com/2001/12/07/news/rumsfeld-rejects-pla...

The surrender was rejected, and the Taliban became an insurrection force we know today. We won the war in 2001, then lost it when we refused the surrender terms. We wanted to nation-build instead.

-----------

EDIT: Never turn the government of a country into an insurrection force. The Taliban, for all of their flaws, was the government of Afghanistan (or the closest thing to a government that they had in the decades before 9/11). They knew how to run their country. We didn't kill the Japanese Emperor when we won WW2, we let the Emperor live a life of dignity and remain a culturally significant icon while negotiating surrender terms.
Ban human driving on the interstate, highways, etc. Boom, self driving now works at scale.
I don't disagree. I'm not saying all conservatives support(ed) the Iraq war in retrospect. But there are some who do and I'd like to understand why.
Is this how you defend your marketing claims on privacy? Sue us if we have a data breach?

I really don't get it, despite having written my first game over 20 years ago. How can a large company publish a game for multiple systems, but fail to support cross platform play? I was really disappointed a couple times.
I'd argue woodworking tools are harder. People expect physical objects to work correctly, whereas the word has largely come to accept buggy, glitchy software.

It’s horrible. But what is there to do about it?
Why would regular people want it? We already have real meat. Those who don't want it can stick to plants. It's risky to eat laboratory things without knowing the centuries long impact on people.

> industrial-scale torture of factory farms

So melodramatic. You can raise your own animals.

> but most people's consciences are too stunted

No, some people are so weak minded that they attribute human characteristics to animals to the point of wincing at the idea of a balanced omnivorous diet.

You only find this permanent state of infantilization in first world countries. Even Buddhists in Tibet are perfectly happy to eat meat.
My thought would be that we hear lots of anecdotes because they claim a full self driving capability, so it’s particularly interesting when they crash and are using these assist features. Indeed when I bought my Model Y I paid extra for that capability.

Here’s more detail: https://www.tesla.com/support/autopilot
The real question for me is whether this "meat" will result in less carbon emission, which seems highly unlikely. Legumes will probably remain the cheapest and most ethical source for proteins for a long time and there are lentil and bean dishes that are a lot tastier than most of the ways people eat chicken (in my opinion as someone who still eats chicken)

> Allowing multiple beliefs to overlap

This doesn't seem very rational. If your beliefs are in conflict and you're content to not resolve that, then pretty much by definition you're accepting a logical inconsistency.

If resolving the intersection doesn't lead to a new stable belief system, then aren't you basically going with "whatever I'm feeling that day"?
Maybe you did that, I made an account to participate in a discussion forum. Until I submit an application to ycombinator or back one of their startups or apply to one of their startups I don't see how I have fallen for their marketing. Similarly, just because I sometimes get emails from people calling themselves Nigerian princes doesn't mean that I fell for Nigerian prince scams.
I do not have data to support what I say but I believe that fiat money pollutes more than any cryptocurrency...

Just think about the printing of money, the transport of it, the construction of banks, all the bills they issue, the energy that is spend within the same bank, many countries have a relatively active national currency (that means mining)...

In the case of cryptocurrencies you are only spending electricity and production of graphics cards ....

I also think that the bitcoin algorithm is Shit inefficient, but certainly crypto pollutes a lot less than fiat money.
Assuming Python or Perl are installed by default in any server is an invite to a world of pain. At least that's my anecdotal experience.
Germany is still occupied by Americans. We're still defending you from the same foreign adversary, Russia.

If the US pulled out of Germany in 1965, what would have become of the place? IMO, it's clear. The communists would have been conscripted into war, West Germany would have surrendered rather than fight their countrymen. This is exactly what happened in Vietnam and it's what is happening in Afghanistan now.
Agreed. This is a much better article from last month: https://www.axios.com/facial-recognition-retail-surge-c13fff...

> 1. Don't use strict (adkim=s; aspf=s) if you expect your emails to be forwarded (https://www.dmarcanalyzer.com/forwarding-within-dmarc/).

Neither of this settings have anything to do with forwarding.

aspf and adkim are for SPF/DKIM alignment, where 'r' (relaxed) allows subdomains, and 's' (strict) does not.

aspf=s requires RFC5321.MailFrom and RFC5322.From to match exactly (no subdomain difference) for the SPF to be qualified as aligned.

adkim=s requires the DKIM key to be published under the same subdomain as found in the RFC5322.From address for the DKIM to be qualified as aligned.

Forwarding will break SPF in most cases anyway, this is unrelated to your aspf setting (unless you are forwarding between your own subdomains).

DKIM should not break by forwarding, regardless of your adkim setting, because forwarding does (should) not rewrite the RFC5322.From address.

For more explanation, see here: https://www.mailhardener.com/kb/dmarc#relaxed-vs-strict-mode

> 2. Microsoft (Outlook/Office365) ignores DMARC p=reject by default (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/offi...)

They don't ignore it, they treat it similar to p=quarantine. So there still is a difference between p=none (or no DMARC at all) and p=reject.

Glad to hear you aren't the only person thinking of the mind virus idea!

Exactly what you said. Once you accept one toxic thought, it tends to branch out into other decisions. Unfortunately there are many, many memes out there ready to cause an infection.

These things can be fatal.
Yes. This also makes me kind of nervous when just using normal car adaptive cruise control. I feel as though my foot needs to be hovering near the pedal anyway and that's often less comfortable than actually pushing on the pedal and controlling it myself.

Indeed, and topically understanding the urge to order, safety and peace is the key to working out China too as well as the West's befuddlement at the inhabitants attitude towards their own tyrannical and authoritarian state.

China isn't totalitarian but I believe the Taliban aims to be. I should look into this more.
Well, that is another issue: no (or limited) competence of the plumber.

At least here (Italy) we have two kind of workers:

1) generic plumbers (BTW also perfectly capable of installing a new A/C system or boiler, furnace, etc.)

2) specialized "boilermen" or "heat engineers", i.e. people that do the maintenance and repair of them

The level of competence of #1 above is - generally speaking - excellent, whilst the level of competence of #2 greatly varies, particularly when the issue at hand is not "normal maintenance" but rather a malfunctioning, and even more so if it is an electronic/controller related one.

Even if manufacturers do provide courses to (hopefully) keep the maintenance crew up to date with specific new machinery, these courses are often completely unuseful (as they are often theory only and very little real-life or actual field related) or they are terribly conceived or taught, with the result that only a very limited number of people taking them actually understand them fully.

To give you an example, I often deal with a "largish" plumber firm that has some 15 people, of which some 10 are "generic" plumbers and 5 are "specialized" on HVAC, A/C, boilers, etc.

Of these 5 people, only 2 (IMHO) are good in problem solving, and only 1 is at the level where all of them should be.

This latter guy is often called directly by this or that manufacturer to go and solve for them issues even 3-400 Km away, which should mean that he is a rare resource.

And every year the manufacturer engineers add some more complexity to the machines (no matter if for a real bettering or not) completely disregarding the need of forming the maintenance and repair personnel.

There is also an underlying education problem, some machines are getting so complex that only someone with a graduate engineer level has the competence to troubleshoot some issues, but of course no graduate engineer would ever dirty his/her hands in a plumber job.
No I loved those buttons, and find miss-touching a screen so much easier! I could bash out messages on my Nokia 8250 without looking at all, and could type away with the phone in my bag. I'd love to know what my typing speed was actually like back then, but it sure felt fast!
> Illegal (no signal) lane change results in a steering wheel shaker (and optional audio alert).

To be clear, tying the warning to the signal isn't about preventing unsignaled lane changes, it's gauging driver intent (i.e. is he asleep and drifting or just trying to change lanes). It's just gravy that it will train bad drivers to use their signals properly.
To be fair though, it is very broken.
we get new virus strains every year due to mass poultry and pork farming. Mad cow was not super fun. Mass meat farms are a large driver in climate change. Not to mention the ethical issues in killing millions of animals a year if there is an alternative not too.

Yup. For me, this is very much anxiety-removing.

Professional resume writer here. Quick review.

We don't use first person voice on resumes. We use 'implied first person' (no 'I'). So "Former emergency response driver..."

Mentioning a Twitter handle is only useful if your Twitter has things you'd want people to see.

The professional experience section (Modules here) should be in reverse chronological order - so most recent first. It would be useful to say something that you did while working for RustMinded and maybe tell the reader who the company is. So it might look like:

Software Developer, Rustminded $DATE_- present

RustMinded is a Belgian startup dedicated to the promotion of the Rust language.

As others have said, I don't really get the fascination with LaTeX. I get a lot of incoming resumes from my tech clients that are written in LaTeX. It feels more like "I built it using LaTeX to try and impress you" than "it's the best tool for the job".

The project sections are mostly OK other than some language issues.
Well yes. From the OP link:

Yes it seems that anything that takes more than the average tenure in a tech company is defined as "forever" now.
I understand your skepticism when details are hidden, but there can be some valid reasons:

* details are so technical that they're hard to explain without "just look at the code type explanations". I've run into this roadblock trying to explain the Spark Catalyst optimizer.

* Not truly understanding all the details, so you can't explain the tech. Sometimes the documentation writer can't provide a "plain English" overview of the technology.

* the details are the proprietary IP / secret sauce of the company

The inner workings of a proprietary query engine are a good example of all three. It may be great tech, but hard to explain and part of it are the secret sauce that they don't want to expose. Not exposing something doesn't necessarily mean they're hiding something / being dishonest.
It is quite hard to become rational as humans are emotional beings. Sometimes, emotions will take over rationality in making decisions. This is why people struggle to make wise decisions.
Thanks for the suggestions, we are seriously considering these options, as mentioned under few of the other comments, the pricing isn’t written in stone for us since again we are workshoping that currently :)

I don’t know much about trading, but it appears to be down nearly 5% this morning as of right now. Regardless, I think you’re conflating trading price with whether something is material in general.
With paper, you do it your way, which maps to the organisation's way at both ends (and is probably just a minor improvement over the organisation's way). With computers, unless you can reprogram the system (which is tricky even for programmers), you're doing it the computer's way, which is often worse than the way the organisation would want to have it set up.

I consider myself a liberal, I'm broadly in favor of more regulation, and I might even be in favor of this regulation given something to assuage my initial concerns (because as I said, I like the idea).

But I believe there are also lots of well-intentioned but bad regulations, and so they need to be considered carefully!
Honestly, agree 100%.
How do you communicate that to users though? The trust is hard to gain.
To OP - I think the resume is a clever format, and riding a language's popularity is a great way of putting yourself out there, especially as a junior.

To others, the "Traits" section -- how much impact does this really matter to the hiring managers? You're hired for what you know, but you're fired for who you are. Is it worth it to expand on these "traits", or is it a fluff area that can be replaced with something more meaningful?
Same reason why WeWork, AMC, Lyft, even Tesla continue to raise money.

2% interest rates on a 30-year, and terrible valuation on all other stocks. Most S&P500 stocks are well over 20 PE ratio now and pushing 30 PE. When all other investments look like crap, it is only natural to invest into other crap in hopes of winning big.

There's also a contingent of investors who are willing to throw $Billions into GME in the hopes that GME turns itself into a dominant online marketplace. Others are throwing money into NFTs and initial-coin offerings.

The amount of people throwing away good money at risky offerings is at an all time high. Under these conditions, Uber, Lyft, Tesla seem capable of eternally raising money from the markets.

I don't know when or how this behavior stops. I assume people will run out of money eventually, but I've been waiting since 2015 or so. It will happen when it happens, no point trying to predict the exact moment.

"VisiCalc took 20 hours of work per week for some people and turned it out in 15 minutes and let them become much more creative." - Dan Bricklin

It's interesting to me that VisiCalc (1979) and its successors (Lotus 1-2-3 and Excel) undoubtedly made some key business jobs vastly more productive and yet software spreadsheets don't really make a dent in the productivity numbers. I'd argue that software spreadsheets are a 'management technology' as the article defines them, but that they are a counter to the article's claim that management technologies spread slowly. They've been widely adopted by businesses of all scales, starting from the introduction of VisiCalc.

Because of this, I wonder whether we are measuring productivity properly

My only contention is that this is not trivial, the way the first respondent claimed it was.
