I’ll bite: your team may say they are doing “domain driven design” but given from the description that they are not, you could just as well claim to be training alligators and be as correct.

However, you _are_ correct to say that DDD has a very limited use - as does the domain model pattern itself. Martin Fowler even calls this out in Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture, imploring that it is necessary only when there are “complex and ever-changing business rules”. Most business systems should be multi-player Access databases, and instead have “a few sums and not-null checks”, thus should not use a domain model, thus should not use a technique aimed at designing and validating a domain model.

Honestly, I’d find a new job.
Why? I’m sure the usage is low enough that a user hitting the same issue, likely similar in time to their post, stands out quite well and can be linked to a public report.

* Things that need cheap moderate security - vending machines, confidential-waste-for-shredding bins.

* Things that need the simplicity of classic keys, or that need to be controlled by someone different to the door access system. Safety lock-out systems, lift shaft / roof access.

* Things that are already behind electronic locks, but need an extra layer of security - e.g. the safe in the ambassador's office.

Ok, so the recent independent confirmations that the laptop's emails are genuine indicates the original story was not entirely made up bullshit, correct? That there's some warranted suspicion there.

And the 5 years of reporting that Trump was a compromised Russian asset since the 80s are just as much bullshit as all the Fox News reporting that Obama was a secret Muslim and not a real American citizen, yes? And you would also support suppressing those bogus claims about Trump just as much as you would support suppressing those claims about Obama.

Just to make sure we're all being impartial about reality here, and not treating one set of claims preferentially because of who they're about or where they come from.

Why? Central Europe isn't that dependent on that gas, because Russia isn't the only source. OTOH Russia now has an incentive to keep the gas and thus the Euros flowing.
> debating whether it is worth 5 points are 8

I'm baffled by this behavior. If you know it is the next most important thing, why do you care? What would it change in your behavior if it is a 5 vs and 8? If you are looking at a task that you would choose not to do if it were an 8 but choose to do if it were a 5, then you probably look for something that is more important to work on.

I think you are right that much of that is driven by managers looking for metrics, but unless they understand what the metrics mean it is pointless.

Gas would be a huge ecological improvement to coal. Nuclear power is too expensive and much of the costs are externalized. It will only be able to compete if you weight co2 beyond any other influence.

I think you are right, but it allows parents to say "you can get instagram for kids" as a way to compromise.
This idea is about punting responsibility onto parents. This way FB can claim the responsibility is not on them but on parents. It's in many ways a legal maneuver.

The reality of helping kids requires parents who are well enough informed and engaged here. This is something we don't have. I've talked with many people outside of tech circles and they are typically unaware of any consequences to kids. Sometimes they just don't believe it.

This isn't about helping kids. It's about shifting legal responsibility so they can keep doing what they do.

Could this be the kind of external force required to help reduce unnecessary paper waste (junkmail, statements, etc.)?

China is the largest paper consumer in the world (100mm metric tons), followed not far behind by the US(70mm metric tons). Japan is 3rd at 25mm.. That seems to suggest we have a lot of room for reduction.
No, the problem is that AI systems are unpredictable, unverifiable, and their correctness is unprovable. There is a million academic articles detailing this issue.

When we need something that works 99.99999% of the time, it is written in ADA or similar safe language and tested exhaustively. You know how long processing will take to the microsecond, you use a special realtime OS, etc.

AI will have its own failings, some of them totally unpredictable, so yes, boiling it down to 'just needs to be trained properly' is terrifying when peoples lives are at stake

Just out of curiosity, what’s your proposed solution?

There's been decades of very smart people working on this problem and its still a problem largely because of its complexity. If there was a simple solution, I have a feeling it would have been implemented already.

The irony of your post that starts with "its not that complicated" ends with an anecdote about just how complicated the system is.

One cause of misapplying tactical patterns is learning. When people start learning something, they do it badly and in inappropriate contexts. The solutions to this are:

A. Don't learn things.

B. Dedicate some amount of time to learn something in a sandbox before using it on the job.

C. Once you've learned something well enough to see the error of your ways, dedicate some amount of time to clean up your old work.
> without hurting people

You need to be specific. Injuries? Stress? Responsibility? Overtime? General drudgery? People are paid a salary to do something they wouldn't do otherwise. There is always a downside. Laws exist to limit certain downsides, eg undue physical stress, sexual exploitation or too high a risk of injuries. If that was the actual policy goal, you would not say “We cannot allow corporations to put profit over people”, you would be mentioning a specific downside. Doing otherwise would be dishonest sloganeering.

"The research actually demonstrated that many teens we heard from feel that using Instagram helps them when they are struggling with the kinds of hard moments and issues teenagers have always faced."

This is research 101. Of course kids that "Instagram hears from" are going to have positive reviews of the app. The is convenience sampling from your own users. Additionally, they interviewed kids 13+, do they really have the ability to identify the source of issues they are experiencing?

You've missed an angle - the causal link between genetics and personality is completely overwhelmed by the non-causal correlation between genetics and social status.

These models aren't going to pick up the correlation between facial structure and personality, they are going to pick up which families are high status and which are low, then provide the same pseudoscientific justifications for discriminating that people have been deploying since the dawn of pseudoscience.

Basically, these models are going to mislead people into thinking that a non-causal correlation is causal.
It's a simple update of an app that was posted about a year ago. The time-period has been extended so that you can see the trend since 1950.

Any arbitrary locations can be chosen but the input is sort of limited to larger cities. The underlying data is the hourly ERA5, and I'll try to add a bit to download some of the data and add more parameters.

I've always thought that while global numbers such as 1.5C is something we all hear about, it's also important to know how things are changing at the local level.

Any feedback on the app or the visualization would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Yes, and then we ask an Iranian what being influenced by the US means, and we stop all international collaboration and just focus on the EU. But then we shouldn't ask southern Europeans what northern European influencing is...

The Russians could make the same argument of the US meddling in Ukraine, before Crimea happened. Nato denies it, but from their perspective it can make sense. Perhaps they only perceived it that way when the US got involved in the Maidan protests. That said, wrong perception is sometimes an excuse.
While I agree with the premise, I think this is going to be a huge battle to win very little: advertisers taken out by the door will come back through the windows.

At this stage, we should just ban advertising in general.

The purpose of advertising was to be able to give informations to the customers so they could chose, but it's not what's happening anymore. Now, it's a tool mostly used by those having money and/or power to have more of it, or keep it.

Removing advertising will have a lots of benefits:

- small shops will have a better fighting chance. Their local presence will give them visibility.

- "free products" that are actually paid with advertising will be filtered out based on their actual value for the users since they will have to explicitly pay for them

- no more information pollution on TV, internet, billboards, etc. No more product placement, star endorsement, branded athletes...

- billions of dollars redirected from ads to actually make useful things. Probably closer to home as well.

- fake reviews, paid articles, click bots, etc, would be prosecuted, making money for the state, and less fake news for us. The signal vs noise would get better significantly.

- weak people, like kids or the elderly, will not be campaigned to be molded into consumers. And social norms not affected as much by corporations.

- and the incentive to spy on consumers, hold as much data as we can, crafting future data leak disasters, will naturally become weaker. No need to fight for it.

The downsides exist, but cannot even touch a world with a ton of less waste and bs, and money for the business that make a living with it.
>I'd say part of the problem is that DDD critics conflate DDD with overly complex, enterprisey models

I don't think it's the critics conflating. It is what it is.

Like most problems I think there’s the actual issue at hand and also the feelings that fosters. Feeling under appreciated is the #1 complaint amongst employees, I believe, and even out-ranks salary.

I think calling them tips has taken on legal slash CYA purposes, makes it harder to refund than a "donation" (the former internet name for it, not quoting you) which has its own legal meaning regarding registered charities making it easily chargeback-able

Paper shortage? We just got through our wood and lumber shortage - the lumber mills being shut down before Covid.

At Google your tests are automatically run beforehand, but not all tests of entire Google are run for your commit beforehand. Sometimes you break others code with your change.

>Also the worker doesn't profit in any way if he works faster. [...] So why the haste?

Yes, it's true that they're not paid piecemeal per box so working "faster" seems pointless but some workers still hustle because they want to keep their jobs.

A worker having a defiant attitude of "I don't get paid to work any faster" is fine -- up until the point they are replaced by another worker who is faster -- which means they're unemployed and make $0.

Going through the physical acts required for procreation could be trivial to some, I suppose.

The problem is the title, but remember that the researchers don't write the title of the press article.

It's well known that you can compute any desired linar transformation with light and lens, diffraction gratings and similar stuff. I've see people calculating the wavelets transform with a similar equipment, like 10 years ago.

The interesting part of the research article is that they got a better method to design the lens, diffraction gratings and similar stuff to calculate the transformation. This is somewhat explained in the article, but totally lost in the title.
