Your facts are wrong. At the same price point, the 32" TVs available today have better picture and sound quality than those from a few years ago. Check the archived manufacturer specifications and independent reviews.
Don't know if I agree that things have intensified since Biden came to office...in my anecdotal and possibly siloed experience it feels like things have calmed down significantly for one side and stayed about the same or decreased slightly for the other side. Maybe it's recency bias, and I'm comparing too much to 2020 when everything was extremely heated. But generally I feel like the left and right were both screaming in 2020 and now it's like 10% of the left and 90% of the right.
Inflation is an increase in the cost of goods and services. Employers generally mitigate it with regular small bumps in salary, often called “cost of living” increases.

What you’re seeing with salaries right now is not inflation, or at least mostly not inflation. It is supply (lower than usual) and demand (higher than usual) of certain skills. In other words it is a real market movement in the value of certain kinds of labor.

Employers can mitigate this as well, either by proactively raising salaries to match (sometimes called “market adjustments”), and or by waiting to hear an employee is leaving and then trying to match their offer to keep them.

Candidly, sometimes employers don’t actually want to mitigate these forces, but instead see it as an opportunity to trade longer-tenured employees who are entitled or jaded for newer employees who are more enthusiastic (and maybe more naive).

In any case, the only sure way to test your market value is to apply for new jobs.
This is similar to what I've seen in Germany. Probation is six months long and during this time either party can terminate with two weeks notice without any cause. This is a time for both the employer and employee to be evaluating each other for a good fit.
What if we solved it by replacing passwords with client HSMs?
20k would be an enormous amount to me. This is sort of frustrating to read in a similar way that it is frustrating when some "satisfaction expert" tries to tell me money won't consistently motivate me or make me feel appreciated, when I know for a fact that it does.
This is overly simplistic. Frequently you get blocked because your IP block legitimately has a lot of people with poor computer hygiene who are a source of large amounts of spam which puts your IP on a reputation blocklist.

There are legitimate and valid reasons for Google or Microsoft to be taking the actions that they do because email is an extremely hostile environment. Blaming them for that environment is silly. You may be a good actor but you are in a sea of really bad actors and it's non-trivial to figure out that you aren't one of those bad actors.
I expect a yearly raise that at the very minimum match the inflation, such a raise I interpret at "my salary has stayed the same as previous years" while no raise means "I'm getting paid less". I'd probably quit if the company started paying me less (by not matching inflation) unless they had a very convincing excuse.
There, if you don't play with the unwritten rules, you get clobbered by the written ones...
Unless you are Mother Theresa everyone works for money and extra money in terms of wage increases to keep up with inflation is welcome. I have seen this come out of mouths of MBAs who are tasked with quelling the wage rebellion "money isnt everything, work for the greater good, save the walrus who can't get his sea weed and lives 3000 miles away" come on :)

> confusion over the word 'tracking'

OMG. This was one of my stumbling blocks in learning git. None of the explanations were helpful to me.

The other area that is a tremendous source of confusion is rebasing being described as "re-writing" history. There is no re-writing of anything in git during a re-base. There is some moving of labels (branches), which you might call "re-labeling" but all the commits that were there before a rebase are still there after in the git repository as well as a bunch of new commits.

Great essay.

Am first time dog owner (as an adult). Right before the apocalypse.

A handful of Yes And:

Like the cockapoo's owners, most dog owners I've met are basket cases. (Me included.) Not as nutty as cat owners, or godforbid parrot owners, but still pretty nutty. I'm pretty sure most humans are nuts, and that pet ownership is an expression, outlet, and amplifier of that intrinsic nuttiness.

Totally agree about under stimulated dogs. My dog is high maintenance. Requires at least two major outings per day. Long walk, hikes, dog park, play dates. But truly, he's only happy while chasing birds on the beach. If you see a spaz dog, most of the time blame the owner.

Most dogs need to be in a pack. So get a second dog. Bonus will be the owner won't be the sole center of dog's universe. Until we score our lottery ticket getting another rescue, I'm dog sitting our neighbor's dogs during the day. Makes everyone happier.

Positive reinforcement is magic. I so wish I knew about clicker training before having a human kid. As a first time dog owner, I'm still pretty bad at it. OMG, so many mistakes. OMG, so much bad advice. But getting better with practice and experience. And the benefits of focusing on the positive have spilled over to other parts of my life.

Lastly, in general, I'd say don't get a pet if you wouldn't have a kid. A dog and a toddler are about the same amount of effort and moral responsibility. And a dog will always be a toddler.
Here's one example:

>Savings accounts used to pay anywhere from 5 to 8 percent back when inflation was 1 to 2 percent.

source? using the data from FRED https://i.imgur.com/O6EdHco.png, the periods where that was true (ie. interest rates being 4-6 percentage points above inflation is few and far between.
"it depends". The v2 box we had back in ~2009 was Intel and Linux on the compute side but SPARC and Solaris for the storage side. It had horrible throughput though for the 1st year or so that we owned it, but it eventually got better after some software upgrades. All the equipment was Sun branded though (except for the Infiniband switches, I think those were Mellanox, but it's been more than a decade so don't quote me)
I had the pleasure of being a test subject for my local hospital’s new 7T last week. They strapped my head down to the table and I was only able to listen to the intermittent “DO-DO-DO-DO” of the machine, while a mirrored television played 15 minute aerial footage of Norway’s fjords on repeat for an hour. Reminded me a little of the brainwashing scene from A Clockwork Orange.

The radiology report said, “No significant incidental findings identified,” so that’s good at least.

I think O notation represents the upper bound, so a complexity of N can also be said as O(N^2) or O(N^3), but that isn't particularly useful.

In other words, if f(x)/g(x) < inf when x->inf, then f(x) = O(g(x)).

Then there's omega-notation (lower bound, f(x)/g(x) > 0) and theta-notation (both lower and upper bound, 0 < f(x)/g(x) < inf).
OK I see what you mean. So it's probably close to the second definition.
The last two drugs doctors put me on have contributed to my life being ruined for the past 5 years

I was given Tremfya, a biologic, for mild psoriasis. I've had a horrible reaction to it and it's exacerbated what used to be a minor autoimmune issue into something debilitating.

After autoimmune destroying my life, I was given Lexapro for anxiety which took my anxiety levels from like a 5 out of 10 to a 1000. Even after being off it for a year, I'm still really messed up and haven't gone back to pre-lexapro levels.

I was given gabapentin for neuropathic pain. It did nothing for my pain but now I have full body shivers and twitches and I have horrible withdrawal trying to get off gabapentin gradually.

Doctors push what the pharmaceutical companies tell them too.

Look into the effects of cipro and -floxin type antibiotics causing lifelong neuropathy.

My mother developed AVN from prednisone - causing her to need dual hip and dual shoulder replacements bc her reaction to the steroid caused her joints to turn necrotic.

Her lack of mobility and age has come with higher blood pressure.

Her blood pressure medication gave her gout.

The issues you describe are important but typically out of scope for data structures and algorithms book. They are often considered more architectural issues.

In many real-world scenarios, it is not necessary to pick the best data structures and algorithms. It is often good enough to just avoid poor choices.

Trustworthy measurements are important since constants and implementations matter. That is done through benchmarking and profiling. This is also often not considered part of many data structures and algorithms books.
You maybe wouldn’t expect it, but in this regard Windows is far superior to macOS. It will output whatever resolution your monitor has, and then you can just set a “scaling factor” which will make the interface exactly the size you like while still being pixel perfect.

Given how simple most UI is, especially these days (circles filled with gradients, roundrects) and given how many different screen sizes and resolutions are used even within Apple’s first party displays, it’s almost insane macOS isn’t resolution independent.

The deal we struck with Google for all that nice free stuff, the affordable mobile phone ecosystem, the entertaining videos etc. has proved a deal with the devil

Wow, what a bad deal! Perhaps we should just, you know, undo the deal and give back the mobile phones and entertaining videos. If it's a choice between societal collapse or land-lines and physical-media-driven home theater, is that even a choice?
When you remote into the Mac with VNC (which is the protocol Apples native Screen Sharing solution uses) you are limited to the display resolutions that the hardware thinks is available.

Thanks for clarifying - I appreciate the correction to my admittedly non-local knowledge.

But I'd love to hear more rationale why it would unwise to open a dialogue? Not specific to this scenario, of course, but in general what risk does that expose?
I am not sure the failure of any company has ever hinged on the hiring decisions of a few developers. If you take a look into the downfall of Sears you'll see long-term strategic missteps that aren't related to recruitment in their software engineering teams.

Also I don't think a company deserves to fail if they've got a bit too much faith in a slightly flawed recruitment process. The entire point of us sharing posts like this on here and discussing them is to learn and even help each other, isn't it?
The test has the same kind of change. It passes, and nobody thinks to look at the obviously-correct code.
This is another point in which this can be a good interviewing question. For certain jobs you don't want someone who just forges ahead with an unclear specification.

That said, for most dev jobs implementing a binary tree isn't necessary knowledge. But if I need a dev who can get their hands dirty I would be weary of hiring someone who can't take a decent stab at it during an interview.

No, plumbing isn't a bad thing. As I generic term I might use it myself. The porcellain part though moves it clearly to the toilet topic, and that part I find unfitting. And the original poster just didn't understand what was meant with the differentiation between the porcellain and the plumbing. Which caused me to comment that software authors should be a bit more carful when naming things. What starts as a inside joke might not be well understandable by outsiders and off-putting in the extreme cases. After all, naming is about being understood.

What Could Disrupt Amazon?
> Burning out is likely due to a lack of focus

Folks do get burnout because of personal habits, but just as often it is due to the environment that they work in.
Amazon did a very classic version of reinvesting profits to drive growth: build more infrastructure, enter new segments, etc. It's easy to just stop doing that and start raking in profit.

But many startups today invest into incentives, ads, low prices, low ad density on their platform (Twitter & Reddit). Stopping those measures is far more disruptive and has the potential to kill a company.

Thanks for the support. I considered the @pumpkinman's complaint quite odd!

To address their primary note directly: I do indeed speak this way when reviewing details and considering hunches on viability. If someone only needs a conclusion then I give them one. Most people legitimately considering something, like creating an ML implementation (something I do all the time) and mapping to business feasibility, benefit by understanding the "why" of a conclusion. That by chance you do not personally benefit is not pertinent. If I have read your comment appropriately, I recommend adopting this interpersonal wisdom: https://xkcd.com/1053/

Nonviolating ads have a static amount of money. All the other departments, which exist only because of ad market growth(which happens because of violating privacy and making the ads more and more effective), will not be needed anymore. No growth - no point to develop anything else.
I dunno, unless some criminal stuff is involved, I feel like it is not the business of an employer to probe why a candidate left their previous job in six months. Maybe it is a red flag if their entire resume is filled with 6 month stints, if it is just one job, why bother?

Also, the candidate can say something like "the contract ended" or something generic. What is the point of talking about the shortcomings of their previous job? The interviewer and the interviewee should be interested in what they can do for each other, no?

> The thing about thinking is that our analytical minds rationalise our thoughts and hence our conclusions _feel_ rational.

This is spot on!

A lot of people call themselves "rational" when they are driven by unexposed anger or fear. Including fear of their own feelings.

Real rational thinking is the opposite of being an emotionless robot. It's about being deeply aware of our emotions and how they affect our though process.
An explanation I saw lately about misalign between salaries of newly hired people and existing employees is due to budgeting.

The budget for new hires comes from one budget line, and budget for increases comes from another.

A manager has $N to distribute among fixed number of existing employees (typically a few % of existing salary mass). They can't 2x everyone's salary. And the budget for this is approved long in advance.

OTOH they have some a budget of $X to hire M new people. They might not be able to hire M people if market is hot, so they hire fewer people at elevated salaries and still stay within the overall budget $X.
> It boils down to: Owners who don't excercise and socialize their dog enough are abusive.

And I think that's what the author is trying to point out from a different angle. And I agree. Dogs are kept by people to fill social voids WITHOUT thinking of any social voids the dog might have. And I believe many owners think they have a happy dog when in fact the dog's quality of life is pretty low.
