To find white collar employment? At least before remote work became prevalent recently, I suppose so.

On the other hand, the infrastructure for a large urban area doesn't run itself! Trade work is definitely needed to keep the roads paved and cars functional, the warehouses and stores stocked, the buildings in repair, etc., I would hazard even more so than in less urbanized areas.

I think what I'm getting at is that it seems a little too facile to say uncritically that anyone can just go drive a forklift and expect to make a reasonably liveable income.
For most schools CS is literally in the Math Department. And traditional CS is a lot more math than the contemporary CS, which should really be called SWE.

My alma mater finally merged CS and SWE, then moved the new CS/SWE degree to Engineering because engineering basically prints money.

"Documenting it so that others can actually learn it. Technical writing is another hard task that takes years to master."

Some of us might argue that you have to do that anyway, for any software you write. In fact, a similar argument might apply to your first point.

On the other hand, the last three points are really not requirements unless you are creating a general purpose language and have a large audience.

Of course there is a difference, that's why somebody posted the estimate (in another comment) that the insurance of one nuclear power plant would be around 70 billion per year. And we know from another recent story, that people doing those estimates are really good at math.

You can call it any way you want, but the question remains. If there is less coal use now than before, and coal was used to replace the reduced nuclear, what replaced the coal? It has to be nuclear, no?

Because cosmology has a lot of evidence that the clusters of mater we have around were created by gravity alone, and gravity acts the same way on normal matter and dark matter.

And if you expect a difference on particle genesis at the beginning of the Universe, it would be a major kind of anisotropy that is against much more than just the cosmology theories.

Why is it so hard to accept that we may have no good theory for explaining a galaxy without dark matter?
> if an attack can get into the bastion host, they can disable the firewall, so it cannot be used to limit egress.

This assumes that the attacker can get unconstrained root access to the system. It's fine to assume that attackers will but it's not as if you can't make that difficult.

Agree with the rest of what you said though.

Starting already. I mean, more than before. I found Crimeans not very understanding Russia's realities, so now even thought money go to Crimea from the rest of Russia, the people in Crimea start to compare unfavorably to the alternative.

History moves slowly. However, Ukraine going closer to Europe would be a good illustration.
My point was that it won't degree further as you make copies of the file you got with YouTube-dl
I don't actually think he's that impressive and I don't get people's praise for him. His videos have a lot of mistakes in them and while they're written in a way that dumbs down a topic well for an audience who doesn't understand the subject very well, that's his only major skill that's involved here. He's not especially smart or ingenious, he's just a good communicator. If he was to work somewhere it would be in a communications department, but he probably makes more from Youtube than such a job would provide.

That's why he doesn't work for somewhere in the industry, youtube makes him more. (He makes enough money to hire other people to write for him, as we can see in the linked article.)

Calling it a "myth" misses the forest for the trees.

What possible benefit to existing NATO members does Ukraine joining serve? I can't think of any, unless you define "benefit" as "intentionally antagonizing the former Cold War adversary".

From the former Ambassador to Soviet Union[1]:

>When the Budapest memorandum was signed in 1994 there was no plan to expand NATO to the east and Gorbachev had been assured in 1990 that the alliance would not expand. When in fact it did expand right up to Russia’s borders, Russia was confronted with a radically different strategic situation than existed when the Budapest agreement was signed.

Now, while it's true that there wasn't a treaty or a document that said "Ukraine will never join NATO", there was a good-faith understanding that NATO would not expand like it has. Gentlemen can disagree that this was or was not a realistic understanding of the security and geopolitical situation at that time, but it's genuinely odd that everyone acts like Russia is the sole aggressor in this.

For context for "36.15": you would access Minitel services by typing a numeric code followed by a short textual name, the most common code being 3615.

Advertisements for Minitel services would say something like "Dial 3615 HOTSTUFF to meet a passionate lover". A lot of these services were adult chat, games, or extremely low-res porn, and it was easy to rack up a massive phone bill by connecting to them (you'd have to remember to disconnect, too!). Another very common use cases was phone book lookups.

Think of it as a physical terminal for a ncurses-style terminal app using a remote client, with the display updating line by line with a scanning cursor as you received data. There's an example of what that looked like in this short documentary about Minitel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlUmxUB9RhI&t=500s – every single page loaded line by line that way.
Correct, I was merely underscoring the historic use of the tactic and not "bashing" any country
idk I always loved grinding games especially in MMOs and JRPGs. If anything I'd say games are not turning into work, they are just generally much easier than 10-15 years ago. And it's much more noticeable. There is a reason for example FromSoftware games (Souls-series, Bloodborne, Sekiro etc.) are insanely popular because they offer you a great challenge that you rarely find in modern games. On the other hand the "noise" is also much higher so of course more thrash game exist too.

Yeah maybe you should try listen to the people who lived in the countries under Russian influence and you'll find thing are a lot less nuanced here.

The scars are still here, the memories still alive, the monstrosity still visits us in our nightmares. We would do anything to prevent that from happening to us again.

Thanks a lot, great hardening considerations.

It would be interesting to hear what you think of Keykloak.
I think you're over-complicating some of these.

On point 1, I think legitimate interests covers this fairly well, but it would be arguable for sure.

On point 2, the right to erasure is not absolute so the fact that data are not purged from the database is not relevant. Legitimate interests also come in to play here.

On point 3a, the GDPR only mandates that data subjects are given access to personal data, so the WMF need not collate the information to send to them. Surfacing rev-deleted data might be more tricky, I suppose, Wikipedia has policies against posting personal data of other users and such edits will be oversighted where it's brought to admin attention (see WP:OUTING).

On point 3b, again the legal requirement is to give access to the data. Rectification and erasure is also straightforward (edit the page, ask for other edits to be revdeled/oversighted if the violate WP:BLP). Like you say, Article 85 offers wide protection here, too.
Journal of Natural Products is a great journal when it comes to natural products, for example when you elucidate the structure of a complex novel natural product this is a good journal to publish it in (alternatives being eg organic letters). I follow natural products chemistry and together with nat prod rep this is one of the journals where I will make sure to not miss any abstract, this is a top of the line journal in it;s niche.
However in natural products chemistry there is the tendency to inflate the importance of measured biological activity, often you will see it reported this or that new compound is cytotoxic against some random cancer cell line but when you read the fine print the compounds are weak and/or not selective. Often this later can prove as the justification of a total synthesis attempt or as the starting point for optimization into an actually potent drug (which does not succeed that often).
The 45+min bus ride from SF is not exactly pleasant either. When I was in SF I took a daily shuttle that went on the more scenic I280, but staring at those meadows and hills got boring after a couple months. The GP can get to office in 12 minutes.

Moving much closer obviously makes the monetary aspect of the proposition much less enticing since the rent is ridiculous. And if you happen to hit peak traffic where everyone is trying to leave the office, even being physically close might not get you home in 12 mins.
I completely agree, but the fanboy aspect isn't really my main sticking point, it's his tone that feels like he's teaching elementary schoolers something.

Although I know of many small businesses that would be very happy with $1M pa, there does seem to be an imbalance with the number of employees. You simply can't pay 100 people a salary and stay under $1M. Maybe 12 people, or $10M would be a better balance.
Well then I guess we'll have to find ways to make it clear that they'll like the alternatives less.

What makes this a bit hard to pin down is that around 2009 was also the (re)start of indie gaming. Xbox Summer of Arcade started in 2008, Humble Bundle and Steam Greenlight followed in the next few years and ever since we had an enormous mass of high quality indie games available.

So even with AAA gaming starting to go downhill around 2009, gaming as a whole did actually quite well.

The problem comes in when you try to verify someone's ability to repay the loan. It's not just one's choice in major — for example, the graduation rate for Historically Black Colleges & Universities is only 35%. There are significant deltas between GPA, test scores, and college success rates between various ethnicities. Further, there are significant differences in the repayment of student loans between various ethnicities.

I would not want to be on the team that does a risk assessment with these facts as inputs, because the results would be politically untenable.
This is the #1 cause for me staying in my current position that I hate.
imo a "skilled trade" involves a hard to learn skill that is in high demand. Consequently, the demand yields a higher salary than a commodity "non-high skilled" trade that is not high in demand.

> I fail to see how you can be an electrician longer than a software engineer

Because electrical components and systems do not evolve and change as fast as software constructs, neither does plumbing.

> but even if that was true there are far more careers a college degree enable that pay more.

That's debatable when you account for student loans paired with less marketable degrees. Otherwise, I feel that student debt wouldn't be an issue.
> My prediction is that traditional companies that go back into the office are going to face strong attrition to remote companies. And companies that go remote are also going to get a huge benefit in talent.

Your prediction is right that remote work might benefit small companies, but there is a big risk. As soon as those companies grow to a decent size, then they middle management layers which is typically imported from outside. In a remote-only setup with no opportunity to form strong connections, small innovative companies may find it hard to transition to big established giants.

> it seems more innovative companies are embracing remote

maybe because early stage companies, who do not have communication overhead find it easy to embrace remote and such companies are more innovative by their nature? If that is true, then a real test will come when these companies need to scale.
Could you tell me more about the blacklist? is it IP based? URL based? The servers are in Germany under Hetzner so maybe it's an IP ban that went in
Not quite. Electric pumps scale just fine (that is, linearly), but turbopumps scale better. It's hard to build a very small turbopump but not much harder to build a larger one, and turbopumps improve in efficiency as they get larger. BTW, the largest electropump (4 times that of RocketLab’s Rutherford electropump engine) for a rocket engine is the electropump for the 100kN (10 ton) thrust rocket engine for the reusable crewed suborbital Spica space rocket by the volunteer-run Copenhagen Suborbitals group, which more people ought to know about:

Maybe. The person to whom Baker supposedly made these comments doesn't remember them. The treaty regarding the reunification of Germany, in the context of which these statements were supposedly made, is devoid of any reference to them, as is any other official or public record.
I'm not sure how you can get that sentiment from my comment.

This is a real fear, not a construction, and it should be okay to share the concern in a public forum without being attacked for saying something I'm not. But I know it will happen, anyway, because you cannot fight the tide.

As men, our expected place in society is to contain our emotions. To be silent. Our traumas are not ours to share. The social costs of doing otherwise are unbearable. Society has no tolerance for our victimhood. ...The Audacity!

So yes, exactly. No one cares about men.
There are few easier ways built in to do some of the file functions you've made, instead of `open(f -> read(f, String), "input")` you can use `readchomp("input")`. There's also `readlines` which is equivalent to `open(f -> read(f, String), "input") |> f -> split(f, "\n")`, and `eachline` which is like `readlines` but returns a generator instead of an array.

There are curried forms of the operators that might make it easier to write functional code, like instead of `x -> x == "0"` you can write `==("0")`. Another useful thing is you can broadcast pipes, so instead of `x |> xs -> f.(xs)` or `x |> Map(f)`, you can write `x .|> f`.

It's funny that the first section is about everything loading as a matrix and not knowing the easy way to load things as a vector, I had the opposite problem and every problem that has a matrix I've ended up making a giant vector then reparsing the first line to figure out what dimensions to reshape it to. I'll have to try `readdlm`, I'm currently working through the older AoC years in Julia.

And then on top of it all, throttling ability.

People don't grasp what an unbelievably complex engineering problem that is. It's at least an addition of difficulty at the same magnitude as building a steady-state 63000 hp turbine pump in the first place.

Mechanically implementing it in the inherently steady-state design rocket of most rocket cycles. Having variable controls able to work at those pressures. Testing structural dynamics for a range of harmonic conditions instead of one. And do all of that with materials that need to tolerate temperatures going from cryogenic to white hot, without allowing thermal expansion to affect the mechanical tolerances of parts running at thousands of RPMs. And now you have varying flow rates and negative pressures in the lines coming from the external tanks, so have to design such that cryogenic liquids (that normally would require immense positive pressure to keep liquid) don't spontaneously boil or cavitate or cause a shock-like wave (think water hammer turning off your bath faucet) under changing negative pressures.

It's really difficult even for seasoned engineers to grasp the scale of difficulty involved.
No-code metaverse platform raises $50M in 3 rounds of funding
I get what you're getting at, that we should trust the experts who have professional experience with a problem, but on the other hand, he didn't say how he arrived at that 10% number, and we don't know if his opinion is an outlier among medical doctors. And we do know, because we're witnessing it, that his statement is being amplified by non-medical professionals for the precise reason that it would be urgent and shocking if true. A lot of questionable information about Covid was amplified this way, because "a doctor" said it.

Before we take the information at face value, we would expect some kind of support for his statement from other professionals. There are scientists who study the factors relating teenage pregnancy, as well as advocates for sexual abuse victims who uncover and publicize facts like these. If the information is something that has never been formally studied but is something that doctors "just know," there are tens of thousands (at least) of medical professionals who have regular contact with different populations of pregnant teenagers in the United States alone. If there's a widespread suspicion that the number might be 10% or more, that would mean a lot more than one doctor making an off-the-cuff remark in the audience of a law lecture.
