I wonder if this degradation could also be a health risk, as many polymers are hydrocarbons, which do have known health risks.

Would you consider wax and vaseline as "health risks? Or mineral oil? Those are basically polyethylene but at much lower molecular weights. The hydrocarbons you're probably thinking of (octane and below) are even lower, but e.g. propane and butane aren't actually particularly toxic.

It's a shame to hear that. I never would have thought there would be such a problem with the watch.

I've worked with systems where petabytes are flowing through it every day. If your data starts backing up, it costs lots of real money in terms of hard disk space. Backpressure crosses organizational boundaries--the team running the system which consumes data is not the same team running the system which produces data. We exposed backpressure through our APIs... if our system was overloaded, we returned a specific error code. Clients were expected to retry, sensibly.

Sometimes "add more capacity" just costs too much.
I disagree. It is a political decision to force 2 million Americans to get a vaccine that they don't want under threat of not being allowed to work in their profession. If you disagree with the decision at least you can vote the bastards out.

You're acting like its a trivial procedural matter. These people obviously feel very strongly about it since they're under immense pressure everywhere to get it and they still refuse. Or they may have other reservations, but to dismiss that and just have some nameless faceless un-elected organization intrude in their lives in such a meaningful way is really gross
When I was first starting any kind of fitness in my life, I went through several of the programs on darebee and read many of their guides. I found the content to be exactly right for me at the time. Digestible, detailed, 30 day plans for beginners. They also warm my heart with their hard stance on keeping the content free, having zero ads, and being accessible to anyone with internet access of any speed.

I hesitate to speak for them, but I don't think their mission is to provide content for people who already know what they want out of exercise, have been exercising for years, and understand what is and isn't good for their body. If you're experienced in fitness, the site likely isn't for you. And that's fine, isn't it?

Some folks have called out perhaps not understanding the funding issues with hosting a site so minimal. You're right, that part is cheap. It's the content creators, who are fitness professionals spending their time not working for money that need to be supported by the funding. They also do various outreach programs that of course require money to make happen.

I have no idea what you mean. The judges blocked only one course of action, so they aren't removing the ability of the government to do anything.

Also, they explicitly said that Congress should do it, as our elected representatives. That's basically putting the authority where it belongs, if it exists. That's not about preventing government from doing anything.

And what's wrong with dismantling the administrative state? Many industries are already over-regulated because there are so many agencies, so many rules, and often, those rules conflict.

That's true. My impression is that this is more or less a rubber stamp and the head is acting on behalf of the president. I can't imagine someone getting elected to this position that wouldn't take marching orders from her appointee. It's a lot of power to give one person.

No, just a candidate with low interest in the job. As I said the challenge must come after a chat with a technical person.

It's a good way to assess the level and filter out the kind of code you want or don't want to deal with. Or just help identify what you are looking for.

In the end every suggestion misses _some_ data points that could be useful in a form or another to hiring.

Either way, our process is flexible. The tech screening comes first, so depending on the candidate we might not ask about a coding challenge at all, it would be even embarassing to ask given the seniority of some people (masters).
Source?

I find the only thing keeping groups from organizing is some schlub running an out-of-band comm network, and a fear of being heard mentioning the U-word in the workplace, and a general ignorance of just how much anti-union FUD is spread, and how amazingly cheap it is to produce balanced against how effective it is at disincenting organization.

Don't get me wrong, not everywhere needs a union. The places that do though, there really is no other option.

"Kings inherited their positions regardless of their ability to rule the country."

Yes, but the son of a king was also trained from birth for the role of being a regent, something few if anyone else could have said. This didn't make him the best for the job but it did allow a period of on-the-job training and a cadre of ministers and assistants who DID get to their positions by merit to guide the crown prince.

Setting aside the specific role of monarch, it was typical for sons to take up the same job as their father for similar reasons: they were exposed to knowledge about the trade and mentored in it from a young age. I don't know what happened to children who showed no aptitude/merit for following in the parent's profession -- I suppose it depended on the wealth of the family or the child's ability to find a patron to pursue some other career. But I wouldn't immediately dismiss former times when one typically took up the career path of their parent as being without merit.

Or can we add autoscale? I encountered this exact problem today as I were looking for a simple to setup and maintain autoscaler solution. The programs feed in the backpressure metrics to monitor, the autoscaler would tell me how many pods/consumers there needs to be, based on naive estimation or prediction by yesterday's traffic.

K8s seems to be an over kill and with stateful pods problems, KEDA looks promising, but I wish there's much simpler ones.
No. It's to stop psychologically abusing the population and scaring them and their children into thinking the world is going to end in ten years.

If you solve that problem, then we can actually focus on what matters: making sure there isn't a real catastrophe (implementing policies that don't destroy the economy, building alternative energy solutions, etc). If everyone is terrified and panicked, you're more likely to get the whims of a totalitarian authority accepted by the population (go figure).

Instead of having "climate anxiety," kids should instead be excited and curious about what they can learn to help reduce the effects (or mitigate them away entirely).

The goal of a lot of the people here seems to be hysteria.

Whenever i am trying to google a code issue i have, there is countless low quality sites just showing SO threads with no added value whatsoever.
It is so annoying it actually drives me mad.

Does anyone know what's up with that?

I am really disappointed because the guys creating these sites (i guess for some kind of monetization) must have some relation to coding. But i feel this is an attack against all of us. Every programmer should be grateful for the opportunity to find good quality content quickly. Now my search results are flooded with copy & paste from SO.
They are killing that.

P.S: I don't name URLs because if you don't know what I am talking about already, you probably don't have that issue.
You realize that most of the core software that we depend on was built by graduate students right ? Idk why the average programmer assumes that PhDs in freaking computer science can't code.

The Retro Video Game Scam Gets Worse
> it is a Senate confirmed position - she was approved with a vote of 55-44 (with five R votes).

The elected representatives chose to delegate this power to the person they approved as the head of CMS. What principle would be involved in requiring Congress to execute its powers in a different manner (i.e. by not delegating), simply because one does not like the outcome in this case? Who would decide which powers Congress could delegate and which it had to exercise directly? Has someone already drafted the Amendment to the Constitution which would limit the powers of Congress in this way?

There's no reason in principle for Congress to directly make this decision about requirements placed on CMS contractors and not other aspects of vendor relations handled by CMS. (The narrow issue here is whether CMS can require its contractors to enforce vaccine mandates.)
> Too often we look at the end results (e.g. will this increase vaccination rates) rather than the means of getting there.

Strongly agree. Tangentially, I felt this way about net neutrality. It should have been law passed by Congress. Instead, everyone cheered when an unelected executive board passed a net neutrality bill that the public wasn't allowed to read.

And then, everyone had the audacity to be surprised when the FTC undid net neutrality as fast as it did it. There is a reason we have a legislature and not just an executive branch that can do anything it wants.

>This supports the view that any interview is really focused on finding a reason not to hire someone rather than finding reasons to hire them.

I completely disagree with the current interview process as it existed for the last 20+ years. Last discussion I had I came to the conclusion that big tech companies created this process to not hire domestic workers so they can use H1-B visa workers, who are much easier to control under threat of deportation. H1-B was really big in the early 2000s which is when this process really started. There is a legal requirement to hire H1-B that a company must try to find a domestic worker but were unsuccessful. This style of interview process fits that requirement perfectly. The industry just happened to cargo cult it and here we are, massively employing an interview process designed not to hire people.
