> Renters, on the other hand, have an asymmetrically difficult battle: pro-development individuals need to show up to all the proposed-development meetings, not just one for a particular street or block, if they want to expand housing.

It's not homeowners vs renters, it's homeowners vs property developers. Property developers who, I can assure you, are perfectly capable of sticking up for themselves.

> Homeowners are probably much more strongly driven to show up because the focus is on what they lose. Character of neighborhood, traffic, safety, noise, etc. and the threat against the status quo seems more likely to trigger that visceral defense mechanism.

Are these.. bad reasons to be opposed to development?

> Homeowners are well-defined and known individuals. They already exist, and their turf is already developed. Renters, on the other hand, are an abstract group of people who may or may not even move in, should something be built.

This is all the more reason to listen to homeowners vs renters.

> There's strong stigma against renters, to the point of being demeaning and tribal. A local council near me voiced their opposition to building more affordable developments, and the chairman said he was concerned about "derelicts" (exact word) moving in to the neighborhood and said if they built more affordable units, you'd see a rise in street drug vendors, threatening the local children.

Sleight of hand there. Renting != affordable housing. To be blunt, although maybe not as much as that councilman: poor people commit more street and petty crime. This is inarguable. Most people commit crimes near where they live. Also inarguable. He's not wrong.
Yes, so many ignorant commments above.. hard to believe software developers are so well paid.

he didn't say he wanted to mock people, but the concept of "non-binary" as presently accepted in our society

You can't separate the two things though. Mocking a belief is the same as mocking people who hold that belief. If someone says "I am a man" and someone else says "Men don't exist" then it's entirely fair to say the second person is attacking the first. They are. Maybe that's OK under the guises of free speech though.

You can't then also say that the first person should be free to say what they want without acknowledging that the second group should be able to call them out for it (aka cancel them). There's no reasonable way for the first person to have the freedom to say what they like without the second group also being able to say what they like.

Cancelling just means that the first person is scared of the consequences of the second person being upset. Well, tough luck. If you're scared of the consequences of your actions then you don't get to do those actions.

Hello Mr. Abc,

Usenet, for several decades already. Good NNTP servers had nearly perfect spam filtering and the trolls were handled individually by each user in killfiles.

If Google had kept the simple original web interface from around 2004 we might not have had all these issues. GPT-3 spam is hard to detect, but can be handled by killfiles.

Of course the real goal of Twitter is to do user profiles and possibly log private messages, for which Usenet isn't suitable. I wonder who on earth would send a sensitive "private" message on Twitter.

I have a question about the arbitrary memory test and palindromes. Are we talking about the memory required to test? Or the memory required to hold the string?
The only memory required to test a palindrome should be that for two characters because you only need compare the first and last character and continue toward the middle so long as those match. If you end up with 0 or 1 characters remaining and all previous comparisons have matched then the word is a palindrome. It doesn't seem that different to me than possibly infinitely testing if the next character is still an A in the case of (A*)

Many, many people are absolutely arguing that zero moderation is appropriate.

Anyway, you also acknowledge that some moderation is both appropriate and necessary. So, now we know your opinion of a private company’s moderation is different from the parent commenters, but you both believe moderation is necessary — and then you call them an authoritarian fascist.

Your comment is incredibly inappropriate.

You seem to be overlooking that in that scenario, your land has appreciated considerably. If you sell, you'll net a gain; if you don't want to sell despite the gain, you can borrow against the property to pay the tax.

Here's the thing to understand: anyone buying property now in a popular area, where prices have been increasing rapidly for the last two or three decades, is effectively paying an LVT. The thing is, they're not paying it to the locality, which could use it for infrastructure and services; they're paying it to the previous owner, because the higher purchase price means a higher mortgage payment. That's redistribution too.
You can't really make that comparison between individual developers though as there is just too much variability between jobs and companies. Some people are able to fully invest their creative capacity at their job and there are others that don't because either their job doesn't allow it or they have interests that are distinct from what the job requires.

> On average, who's going to be better at writing code, the one who has done a side coding project in the past 10 years whilst developing, or the one who hasn't but only worked a job?

You’re clearly leading toward the former, but I could just as easily make an argument for the latter.

In my experience, people with edifying jobs (usually because the problems are harder), are less likely to need to scratch the same itch outside of work.

I think requiring side projects not only shrinks the candidate pool, but also leads to adverse selection.
Tokenisation makes sense if you have a few very small pieces of highly sensitive data, like credit card data. But almost all data stored in an application might be something you legally must delete in certain circumstances. It's also the case that for some applications, all data is “sensitive”, for example a medical journal application, an application used by a trade union, a facial recognition system, or something as mundane as an HR system.

Many people don't see the difference between a joke about racism and racism.
It's an informal standard going back a long way. See for example RFC 3676, 4.3. Usenet Signature Convention

There is a long-standing convention in Usenet news which also
commonly appears in Internet mail of using "-- " as the separator
line between the body and the signature of a message. When
generating a Format=Flowed message containing a Usenet-style
separator before the signature, the separator line is sent as-is.
This is a special case; an (optionally quoted or quoted and stuffed)
line consisting of DASH DASH SP is neither fixed nor flowed.

Generating agents MUST NOT end a paragraph with such a signature
line.

A receiving agent needs to test for a signature line both before the
test for a quoted line (see Section 4.5) and also after logically
counting and deleting quote marks and stuffing (see Section 4.4) from
a quoted line.

Does the Navier-Stokes equation model (experimentally observed) turbulence accurately? I was under the impression that this is an open question.

Turbulence indeed is high Kolmogorov complexity (w.r.t some reasonable grammar of numerical mathematics) and thus high computational complexity. But the question of N-S equation's adequacy comes before the question of computing.

I haven't worked on computational fluid dynamics in a long time -- happy to get insights from specialists.
There is an extremely broad range of scaling between linear and exponential…

Even in architectures with nearest neighbor gates, the (multiplicative) overhead stemming from error correction will only need to be logarithmic in the size of the computation. The constants may be unfavorable, but a log is still a log. See for example https://arxiv.org/abs/1208.0928 and https://arxiv.org/abs/1310.2984

> either I think their issue is too mild for them to understand my experience or I feel like my issues aren't bad enough to count

I totally resonate with this struggle. Not saying my problem is like yours, but being in this in-between place and not feeling like there's anyone out there that gets it.

From my experience, the feeling of loneliness isn't something that can be "fixed" by simply finding a community, or even by having friends that care. Yes, feeling validated and heard are important, but there comes a time when we need more than that.

That is where intimate relationships come in. The paradox here is that, it is exactly because of the closeness and vulnerability and potential hurt, that makes these relationships critical for healing. Many people we meet are not going to get us because of the depth of our wounds. But it's important to keep searching for someone who can meet us at our level.

Intimate relationships, when done right, can be tremendously powerful in helping us heal from our wounds. They allow us to be fully ourselves, especially the ugliest parts that we couldn't face alone, and in providing that love, we start to learn to love ourselves and reconcile with our wounds.

But as you said, it's hard to find these people. You never know how much to reveal, for fear of revealing too much and it's consequences. But I do believe that, you should keep your heart open and go into the world. If you hide too much, no one will see you for your depth, and you may miss out on opportunities that were right there in front of you.

It's a balancing act, to be vulnerable enough for people to see the real you (or at least a hint of the real you, that there's something behind the curtain), and to maintain enough boundaries to not spill yourself over everyone you meet.

If interested I'm always open to talk (email in profile). Relationships are hard and good advice is practically non-existent.

Best of luck. :)

EDIT: Basically, attachment problems can only be resolved by replacing it with healthy attachment. No amount of friendship or even therapy can heal that kind of wound. They help, certainly, but they won't heal it from the core.
I see those signatures as rather excessive, perhaps archaic: headers already make it clear from whom the message is, it's clear where it ends, and most people have personal email addresses. Worse yet, the most common practice seems to be to auto-attach a long signature -- some combination of one's name, title, contact information, organization logo, Apple and antivirus software advertisements -- to a message that was composed carelessly and seemingly very quickly. Slapping "Yours sincerely" onto that wouldn't really improve how it looks to the reader (at least when the reader is me), would rather make it look even more like spam. It probably would look nice in a well-written email, as a fitting decoration, but otherwise I find those to be closer to misplaced decorations. Though as decorations go, a more modern way would be to M-x spook [1] (edit: to be clear, that's a joke about M-x spook).

Some people skip greetings too, particularly in IMs, and I think that makes sense as well: a greeting is actually useful in speech, even more so over a phone (or some other unreliable channel, especially when you don't see the other person), but doesn't seem to be useful in a textual message (though some use it as a ping, and some are unhappy about such usage too).

That requires you to have the entire string in memory, so it’s still Ω(n). Regular languages can be recognized using O(1) space and a single reading pointer into the string, without even storing it whole; you can process it in a streaming manner.
I’d happily bet you any sum of your choosing that I’d make a pretty big dent in the crypto spam within a few months of full-time effort.

Could you do that while also making sure no false positives happen? Elon is making claims that he wants to make Twitter a platform where people are truly free to say what they want, so any spam that gets removed that isn't spam would be seen in a very poor light.

Eliminating spam when you're happy to have a few other things end up in the spam folder by mistake is relatively simple. Likewise, eliminating most of the spam but letting some through because it looks real is also quite easy. Eliminating only spam and nothing else is significantly harder.
Actually, I never took coding tests, until a few years ago, when I was looking for work, at age 55.

I quickly learned, that if I saw a binary tree test, I might as well give up. Even if I did OK, the company was not going to give me a chance.

What I do have, is a ginormous portfolio, with dozens of repos full of ultra-high-Quality code, for shipping products, and over a decade of checkin history, along with hundreds of pages of documentation, and dozens of blog articles and postings; often directly discussing my design methods and development practice.

It has been my experience that this was dismissed, even when I curated and sent examples, directly relevant to the job.

But time is the important part here - a single parent raising two kids is not going to have time to code at home versus a twenty-something year old with no responsibilities and dependants who has an abundance of free time. Selecting in that manner can also end up being a discrimination (those from poorer backgrounds are more likely to need to care for relatives, same goes for women, who on average do ten hours more of unpaid care than men a week)
I don't think the issue is the lockdown in itself or it being much more severe than anything that was done in other countries.

It seems to me like the real issues revolve around the mis-management of availability of basic goods such as food and medicines.

And another common critic is that such strict lockdowns while surely working for the original strains of Covid-19 seem to be much less effective with the recent more infective variants.

As a side note, it has IMHO still to be seen how much China fared better than other countries.
You can have perfectly fine, high quality, peer reviewed code without PRs.

Only if some regulation requires sign offs from e.g.other depts. PRs are inevitable. In all other situations they are at best an inneficient workflow and at worst a Kafkaesque circus.

Peer programming, daily checkups, a rock solid CI, and, above all, trust in the professionalism of your team are some ingredients for high quality, high throughput software development.

This is not an opinion. It's a scientifically proven fact. As laid out in the book Accellarate.
Same here. 25 years. Bored to death of the whole thing but not having the talents or inclination to build a career in a different field at this point in life.

I've never worked in the VC culture (public sector and SMEs instead) but there is still this slavish adherence to things that were "cool" in The Valley five or ten years ago. Scrum is my bete noire. I've just been moved onto a product team that follows the full shamanism of it and the amount of time wasted is staggering. Between daily sprints, weekly planning sessions and fortnightly retrospectives we waste half the week. Then they insist on adding in some "fun" "team-building" activities too.

On top of business practices, I think dev practices have changed so much too. My job these days is increasingly about configuring some Saas system we've bought in or hooking up the plumbing between different open source libraries. I appreciate that it removes the tediousness of building yet another CRUD web app but it also devalues the skill of the job. Maybe our platforms have just got too complex now for any one person or small team to manage it all.

I've tried going into management before and hated it. The higher you go, the more time you spend in meetings discussing the same shit with the same people just on different days.
