Why, when there is only one possible answer to the next question, does it still insist on asking that question? Pick your departing port as Bainbridge Island and see what I mean.
The "guy with the gun" narrative comes up a lot, so this seems to counter that? I love the concept. It seems like something that would work well in a movie but fail miserably in real life.
I could see it being a lot harder to contain in the south. I'm in a dry area in California and it won't grow where I don't water.

There are definitely different species of bamboo. The two main categories are running and clumping. Running bamboo is the hardest to contain, with rhizomes that travel long distances. Clumping bamboo spreads slowly.
You're granting GitHub the right to display your content to other users, and to make additional copies of it ("forks"). Those seem like reasonable rights to assign to Github when agreeing to their terms of service. I think it's completely clear that putting "all rights reserved" doesn't allow you to opt out of certain parts of the ToS, any more than the "I do not allow Facebook to use my content..." pseudo-legalese borderline-sovereign-citizen nonsense that goes viral every time Facebook change their privacy policy.

Working harder is good, but so long as you work on bettering yourself, not blindly ticking off tasks from an endless list. Working harder on making yourself smarter, more skilled, better experienced makes you a good hire, especially if it's in ways you can put on your CV as well. Simply grinding harder at work you already know how to do or what is repetitive is good for your current employer, but not necessarily good for you in the long run. In life of course it's a balance between the two.

As for moving, I moved to the Netherlands since I found an employer here whose work resonated well with what I'm interested in. I work in a fairly specific niche and they were looking for someone in that exact area meaning it ended up being a win-win for both sides. Making yourself wanted in such a way helps a lot when you're looking for the company to give you a hand in other matters, such as migration bureaucracy etc. I've found the Netherlands to be a good fit for me since Dutch people are great with English and it's a fairly international society. What works great for you might be something entirely different, but it's definitely good to think about that beforehand.

The Stack Overflow jobs board [0] helped me a lot when I was looking for positions. For one, you can set up filters and then subscribe to them, meaning you'll get emails about new jobs that are relevant to you. And for two, it's a good way to get a feel for what companies are looking for. Set filters for what field you're interested in and casually browse through some offers. You can see what they expect from you, and what they offer in return regarding salary and perks. This way you can figure out how to make yourself desirable and also motivate yourself as you can see what you can get out of it.

I’m curious how the thought policing parallel escaped you. Are you younger or just didn’t really get taught/research what happened? Not intended as a critique- just genuinely curious.

As for today’s problems, why are you so sure the social media mobs aren’t in some instances government controlled? Certainly we have clear evidence of this happening at least partially in the 2016 US election. Lots of investigative journalism has done good work uncovering how the industry around this kind of stuff is financed. In fact, the KGB 100% exploited social divisions in the past for political gains (eg supporting both white nationalists and the black power movements to encourage more political violence and destabilize US politics). Why would you think that a ruthless politician like Putin who came from t be KGB would be so opposed to leveraging those same tools again? In fact, it seems like they’ve learned their lesson about how to engage in such warfare more effectively.
Splitting some of the parts into smaller parts will expose the insides to outside air which brings some serious cleanliness issues. The mirrors especially will get destroyed instantly by heat if there is any dirt on them when they are flashed by EUV.
I've been toying with the idea of releasing the bitfort source code as open source, but the usefulness is limited as it only worked with a very specific version of Node back in 2018 and the key dependencies (in particular the FUSE one) no longer works.

Of course they have an effect. Take, for example, the UK. All three local peaks of covid deaths (Apr 20, Nov 20, Jan 21) all came exactly 2-3 weeks after each of the 3 national lockdowns.

Obviously that depends on which level of government we are talking about. Local governments are usually not funded by income taxes, same with a lot of state governments. They are almost entirely funded by more regressive taxes.
> systems are going from ETL to ELT

Interesting. I did this for medical records, mid-aughts.

The phrase I used was "transform & translate at the last possible moment". Ideally in the reporting step (server side rendering the HTML).

Since all of our customers kept changing their minds, totally their prerogative, my strategy minimized cost of change and turnaround time. Prior products would have to "rerun the data" from scratch, for schema changes. We'd make the same query tweaks, but at the end instead of the beginning of the pipeline. (Hardest part was always nailing down the requirements, expectations. Then the code basically wrote itself.)

This strategy made people's heads explode. Old schoolers just couldn't abide by it. Despite our small team running circles around everyone else. Data must be normalized! All the same! We had to be cheating somehow. They did everything possible to destroy us, and eventually succeeded.
That's not what has reduced employment at all.

As a rule, businesses exist to make a profit, and make gigantic efforts to eliminate unnecessary positions, such as mass layoffs after mergers. Just because you don't understand the necessity of middle management or "paper pushers" doesn't mean they're not necessary.

The real reason we avoid unemployment is the same reason we've avoided it ever since 90% of households were farmers. It's because however efficient we get, consumers always want better things.

We avoid unemployment not because of "bullshit jobs". We avoid it because humans have an insatiable demand for more travel, novel restaurants, video game consoles with more realistic graphics, fancier theme parks, new blockbuster movies. Our desire for new and better things will never stop. So the desire for people to take jobs to invent and provide those things will never stop.

"Unnecessary managers and paper pushers" has utterly nothing to do with it.
Locating on an echo at one more receivers rather than a perhaps quieter more direct path. Putting the wrong impulses together when computing a location. Computing the wrong start time for one or more impulses.

If you want to read up on all the ways this kind of thing can go wrong, the technical term here is "source localization."
The incentives between the federal government and local police departments probably aren't aligned here, but they're probably not aligned in a lot of other places, too.
Porlock. Nice place, roads in and out will test driving skills (I love the smell of burnt brake lining in the morning - oh, and clutch for drivers who haven't seen the like before). Rather stiff climb out the back to Dunkery Beacon, doable on a bicycle but a challenge for cars in icy conditions.
If we're talking something written in c, its at least as easy as not having memory safety vulnerabilities ;)
Non-Swede who lived in Sweden basically all of 2020 here.
We basically self isolated most of the year and only did grocery shopping with masks and keeping distance but a lot of people really did not care about social distancing or masks. My wife and I were often very uncomfortable being out of the house and really did not like the relaxed guidelines. We commuted a lot to Denmark and the contrast was huge. We felt so much safer and comfortable being out shopping in Denmark compared to Sweden.

We moved to Denmark start 2021 and has been back and forth between the two countries monthly and there’s still a big difference in behavior.
Good luck changing the opinion of the cuckdowncels.
> I think our court system does a good job of defining this already.

I'm not sure that it does. Short of "I know it when I see it" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_know_it_when_I_see_it) what definitions of the essential characteristic of good speech vs bad speech do we actually have if not overtly causing harm?

> If you disagree, you are going to have to repeal the 1st amendment, I guess.

The 1st amendment wasn't suddenly repealed when we got consumer protection laws, so I don't think so.

Whilst true, that's not how "data are a liability" uses the terms.

In banking or brokerages, loans and credit extended are assets as they're value owed to the bank by others. Deposits, held certificates (e.g., stocks), or stored valuables (gold in a safety deposit box) are liabilities because others can make claims on them.

Checking accounts are literally "demand deposits" in the sense that the funds are demandable at any time by the accountholder. Many savings accounts actually have limits on the amount or rate of withdrawal. These are typically large and generous, but they may exist.
But it is reflective. I've found that sort of thing rampant in it's community, and sometimes it's own docs. It doesn't mean it's bad tech, but will be hard to convince a corporate group to want to use it.

Well, sure. I wouldn't take contract work either at this point in my career. But on the other hand I don't really have to do technical interviews at all anymore. After a point everything is reputation and networking.

Contract work is important for people just breaking into the field.
For more / additional information, check out Alex Soojung-Kim Pang's book Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less. Like Jeremy DeSilva, the author of this Lithub article, Pang discusses Darwin and others who consistently walked to think.

The short story is that Pang went and read through the diaries of many notable thinkers, artists and creative types going back to the 19th century. Walking is one tool in the tool box. There are others, including getting enough sleep and taking naps.

> > … I don't recommend anyone do it outside of a testing environment.

> … which is exactly dow it is used in dapr

Eh... There's a difference between "a testing environment" as used in that quote and "as part of an automated test" as you mean here.

To me the former implies an experimental and/or ad-hoc environment, while the latter implies a stable, production environment.
Sure. It is a "joke" until you're tempted to sue a big enough fish that falls for it and get some people fired. Pathetic.
This is a joke, but the person under duress also has to sell that they are under duress. This isn't something you can really "train" the average person to do on command.

It reminds me a bit of Jon Lovitz Pathological Liars Anonymous bit. "Okay! Here's the password...ya that's the ticket."

You're pro having 30 people breathing in a small room with bad airflow for multiple hours when there's a pandemic?

If you don't know how it's transmitted, then try various things and see if they help. We tried lockdown, and it worked. So we kept doing it, if it didn't change the situation we would have tried other things instead.
This sure sounds scary, but it's just a gish gallop of scary phrases. It's a shade away from "there are microchips in the vaccines!" A bare sliver of the crimes committed online are ever even investigated (and that's crimes, not politically subversive speech). You'd think that if there was some functioning, pervasive state surveillance apparatus there would be swift punishment of the plethora of incompetent criminal schemes that people perpetrate online, but there just isn't.

> Contact tracing

If only that was even happening. South Korea did it, and they made people who were exposed to covid stay home and check in regularly with an app. If we'd had the sense to do that here we probably would've saved tens of thousands of lives.
That sounds amazing (though the mukade alone make it a big nope for me), did you write about it anywhere else?
does this mean I would be out of range on any construction crane higher than a skyscraper nearby?
> what definitions do we actually have?

By definitions, I am simply referring to how courts have ruled in the past on this stuff. Which is to put very strict limits on what the government can do.

> The 1st amendment wasn't suddenly repealed

The courts have traditionally ruled pretty darn strictly on what the government is allowed to do.

You should compared the supreme court precedents that we have in the US, to other countries, and you will see just how much more strict the US is, regarding what the government can ban.

So yes, based on how strict courts have been in the past, if you want to redefine how speech laws work in the US, you are going to have an uphill battle.
> Why do you need to jump to "Full Self Driving"? Presumably there are intermediaries.

They've explained this very often. Unlike Tesla, they don't think you can go through the intermediaries without the dangerous situation of drivers not paying attention because it usually works. Based on their experiences a decade ago of employees using it as drivers assist, people check out and it becomes more and more dangerous even if the software is improving.
It's so weird to see people still claiming this.

Sweden has relatively few neighbors, but compare it with any of them, and it looks bad https://imgur.com/a/BlaU2SX

Yes, Sweden did well compared to the EU average, but a country with very low population density, surrounded by very few neighbors that all got the virus under control very quickly has a lot of things going for it compared to the European average.

The difference between them and their neighbors isn't small.

Counterfactuals are always hard, and there might be valid non-lockdown related excuses for why Sweden did so poorly, but it's really strange to be reading articles about how well Sweden has done.
Dividing 1.0 by 0.0 gives ∞ in C# as well when I try it.
The lithography machines are just one part of a very complex machine that is a semiconductor fabrication facility. So basically they failed in one of the many other things.
Going well here. Glad to hear that things are picking up!
I think your points are valid, and it's an interesting problem, but I think a few key differences are worth noting.

A race driver is a much more elite position. There are less of them than there are Youtubers, and there's a lot more attention on you. A dismissal of a sponsorship could be spun into a big PR move, if they wanted to. Compare that to a single social media actor, you'd have to be an absolute huge name to make any sort of difference, simply because there are so many others out there that will immediately fill the gap you'd leave.

Maybe Derek (I had to google his name) would be able to choose another line of work, but what if your passion is to spread knowledge about science and such to the general public? As much as I dislike them myself, I really do believe that social media such as Youtube, Instagram, Tiktok, is the best way to achieve that goal today.
I am a bit biased here, for I am married to an American Physician.

She works longer hours than I do. Her work is much more stressful (literally, life and death decisions almost every day). She can be sued for malpractice while I can only be fired for my screw ups. Her Medical education (undergrad + MD + medical residency) took three times as long as my Engineering degree with much larger student debt at the end.

And yet, as an SWE I make more money than she does. American doctors and nurses are not overpaid, certainly not if compared to the SWE crowd at HN.

American health care is a chaotic poorly organized mess with lots of money simply going to waste. Bringing an order to it (single payer system is one example) can restore some sanity, fairness and financial accountability.
In a rather well-known murder case in Spain, they made a detention based on the fact the suspect had turn off his phone around the time of the crime.
Not specifically about 1/128, but there's plenty of reading about discrimination against masses of Koreans abducted and pressed into labor by Japan during WW2, basically ever since WW2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koreans_in_Japan#Integration_i...
Population density in the inhabited parts of Sweden is similar to the Netherlands, only slightly less than Denmark. Norway and Finland are much lower.

It is no Hong Kong for sure, but not quite as sparse as it is often made out to be.
> Using correct terms helps to communicate effectively. What is wrong with promoting correct use of English?

As has been mentioned elsewhere, language is constantly changing. It isn't even that slow of a process. As a result the vast majority of linguists view linguistics as a descriptive rather than prescriptive science. The "prescriptive" approach to linguistics is much more common among teachers but hopefully that is also being tempered.

The reason why this matters is because prescriptive approaches to language have a long history of being used to enforce class, ethnicity and geography based discrimination.

I think there is a fine line to walk here. If you are going to fight against the changing of language, you need a good reason. I personally really dislike the confusion of "literal" and "figurative" (where "literal" now figuratively means "figurative") because it clearlt reduces the expressivity of the language. In contrast, the advent of "irregardless" doesn't reduce the expressivity of the language (though it foes add some minor complexity as it is an annoying exception in the meaning of the "ir" prefix.) Similarly, the common use of "me" instead of "I" in "and" clauses is commonly touted as a misuse of language even though I have never encountered as usage where it added ambiguity and is extremely common. I've had people tell me they take it as a marker of low intelligence while those same people will make a very similar mistake by switching "me" for "myself" in and clauses.

I do think there is value in teaching people about the historical and cross-cultural uses of language, as this increases our ability to understand eachother. I also think there are times where we should push back against language shifts that descrease the effectiveness of the language. However, I think it has to be done with care to avoid perpetuating injustice and becoming irrelevant as the real language in use shifts.

In your particular case, you seem to be denying the existence of fairly commonly used phrases that don't actually have any negative impact on the information carrying ability of the language.
> Second, it would be absurd to account for extra income to say they make what you're saying.

Except it's extra income that they make by being a police officer. A business that hires an off-duty police officer for security isn't hiring them because they're a big burly-looking dude; they're being hired because they are a police officer. An off-duty officer will typically wear their police uniform while working "off duty", and can take actions which an ordinary civilian could not (like conducting arrests).
