Part of the Product Manager’s job is to understand and get in the head of the user, if they can’t do it for your users they’re the wrong Product Manager. If they’re relying on the engineers they the wrong Product Manager.
Yup. I have one that gets used anytime I need to pop the cover on my sprinkler valve box. I have to use a smaller flathead to bleed the valves but the giant one pops it open with little effort every time.
I used to use jasmin to generate invalid code to test an old JVM. I assume this has the same relaxed attitude that will let you generate invalid code?
Why give a mouthpiece to someone who only spreads hate and division?

Just because you can build something doesn't mean you should.

Unregistered doesn't mean unowned. It just means that the land registry, an official government register of ownership, doesn't have an entry (yet). The registration system was created in 1925 to replace the previous system of tracing ownership through a decentralised system of dusty old documents, but land normally only gets registered when it's sold or if the owner decides to register it.
It's closer than I've seen elsewhere, but not quite there. There isn't a good way to predefine what they consider "billable metrics" for the use case I'm considering.
Awesome, I'm gonna have to take a good look at your project, it's very interesting! Thanks :)
The NIH says that although it's not approved for COVID, more trials are needed for Ivermectin:
https://www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/therapies/ant...

"[The] Panel recommends against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19, except in a clinical trial (AIIa). Additional adequately powered, well-designed, and well-conducted trials are needed to evaluate the effect of ivermectin on COVID-19"

So in other words, it has been approved for clinical trials, which are ongoing. So how does believing in its efficacy make him a "quack"? That characterization is more inline with the highly misleading, and in some cases outright false, stories about ivermectin being "horse dewormer".

HGH has been used for much longer than you give it credit for to address a myriad of growth issues. What the difference is now we have lab derived recombinant HGH rather than that of the cadavers they used to be extracted from.

LAGH is rather new, and Im excited to see where it goes and how it affects treatments of those who want to minimize the frequency of administering it.
I saw NordVPN ads in German TV. At this point I would say they invest all of their money into marketing - my reason for never ever buying their product. I haven't had any issues in terms of blocking on mullvad but my sample size is small since I don't change the servers that often.
It was meant that way to counter sole blame on "due to greedy mortgage investments".

And it is correct - see my other post in this thread with all the relevant FRED data series on people's finances leading up to the 2008-2009 crisis. People most certainly ran many of their own indicators to record highs before the crash, by choice, by choosing more debt than they could manage.
For me a chiropractor is a last refuge when physiotherapy isn't working it's thing. I personally have a lower back problem due to a Hyperlordose (extreme hollow back), which I am able to control well with physio exercises most of the time (keeps me from using painkillers).

When bones are out of alignment, especially backbones, then often they pinch nerves that have important functions like digestion, liver, kidney lung etc.

This translates into bad body functioning that can cause even bad illnesses, think of organs that clean up, or change sugar levels, or bringing oxygen to the brains.If these don't work properly you get into trouble.

First thing you notice when things are not working well is compensation by muscles working hard to try and make things workable in the body, this translates to back pains, feeling stuck, or even paralyzed.

Most of the time it is preferred to do physio-therapeutic exercises to slowly get the bones and muscle tissue into a "normal state" and release the nerve pinch, but sometimes when the alignment is too far from acceptable, or when things are too stuck to have physio work, then you need a mechanic force to get these bones in the proper place again, this is what chiropractic care is.

Like when you had an accident or fall, in that case it is possible that your bones can get a too rigid mechanical shift that isn't solvable with mere exercises.

When using that try to seek the system that does as little as possible to get you back in shape again, like Gonstead, seek for dr. Rahim on Youtube, he explains things very well and takes time for seeking what is off balance (mostly the foundation, like Illiac and Saecrum, which is Latin for hips and tailbone).

There's plenty of news sources internationally that provide interesting articles without "progressive" commentary, with instead say maybe an editorial and some explainer: Financial Times, The Economist, amongst other local sources.
Or perhaps I'm just dull.
Not to detract, but if you're looking for something similar that isn't batteries-included, I wrote a web component library for node editors. Requires a bit of setup but gives you absolute control, would be interested for someone to try it in a new project and give feedback!

cultural oppression - that might have been a valid reason many decades ago but not these days.

Most of the men on H1B visa get married and their spouses arrive on dependent H4 visa. They cannot work with H4 visa (they can work with EAD these days though). Usually, there are a few years gap by the time they get back to workforce.. and what is the easiest field to enter without any programming skill? QA testing !! There are literally hundreds of QA training institutions who train home makers on QA testing and place them in a QA testing role (sometimes inflating the resumes with fake experience).. And there are other subtle reasons like low confidence level, assuming developer roles are more stressful with long hours of coding, cultural bias to focus more on family than career, etc. Outside the fancy startups and tech companies, QA testing is very slowly moving from manual to automated testing. So, it is still one of the easy entry points to the IT industry.
"Corporate media" never said Ukraine was winning in Mariupol. It was always given as a counterpoint.

Voluntary actions from big corporations don't cut the mustard. They can cancel it any time, for any reason and without warning. It's nice of them but that's not why they're in the business of giving away credits.
I don't think people forget that, they need to scale up the responsibility accordingly.

You can't run world-dominating platforms and dodge the responsibility that comes with it. Surely if you rake in tens of billions in profit every single quarter, you have room to do better.

I’ll have a guess at the causation here: more coffee consumed => better code written => higher income => higher standard of living, correlated with better health outcomes.

A true gentleman and scholar tips hat.
ageism is rampant in software engineering. it’s more like a professional sport where you might be relatively high paid for awhile but unless you’re one of the few who can transition to management you will be in a precarious position at some point long before retirement age whereas you can be a doctor up until you choose to retire from old age.

also a significant chunk of pay is in volatile assets eg stock comp. as we’ve seen this past year that is not guaranteed. many people who thought they’d be making $500k a year are now looking at $200k depending on the company.
It’s not. You left out the rest.

“…according to copies of the documents as well as interviews with Soundararajan and current Google employees who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of concerns about retaliation.”
It amazes me that so many people don't instinctively know that artificial light is tiring.

I use as little as possible of it. If it's dark, it's dark. It's not something we need to fear (anymore).
The company is an abstraction layer that allows for very convenience-based relationships.

The point is that at a company you are a line item in the budget and you will be forced out the moment it’s not financially beneficial to keep you around.
I don't really understand what exactly this is. It looks like an open source version of emacs, but I don't understand how it is commercial. Could someone explain more or point to a better description of the project?
It's not a strawman, it's a serious concern of many people, primarily because there is no talk of fixing the actual problem, just handing out more money as a bandaid to a few.
Had me in the first half.
A good senior developer makes 70-90K in London (which is not even close to 80% of Bay Area), a place where a 2-bed flat cost 2K a month and nursery cost 1.5-2K. A junior dev making 50K in Berlin or Munich or Hamburg is much richer, let alone what’s going on in Zurich or Silicon Valley. Italians and Spaniards are better off going to Germany or the Netherlands.

Besides, London has a cultural life that’s not comparable to Paris, Rome or Berlin or even Hamburg (try to get a pint or a coffee at 2AM) and it’s hell if you are not wealthy (try to explain what a section 21 eviction is to a French or a German).
> This is especially true in math and physics. You will find that no matter what problem you can think of, either it has already been solved to the highest level of abstraction, or it's an unsolved and famous problem, or not worthwhile/trivial.

This hasn't been my experience in fluid dynamics. There are so many places where one could apply a standard approach that people haven't. It takes some effort and experience to recognize that, but it's still true in my experience.

I think what you described is probably true for sexier areas like high-energy physics, but not true for more "boring" areas like turbulent flows. Yes, turbulence is "unsolved", but that doesn't mean that useful information couldn't come from applying standard approaches to particular turbulent flows. The variety of industrially-relevant flows is quite large.
I've worked at a consulting firm as a dev where we used React for our all of our projects. Given the nature of the industry, we had a fairly high turnover rate with new devs constantly onboarding and older devs moving out. That, coupled with lack of engineering culture, resulted in our project architecture unfolding into what felt like a variety of different brain dumps in a codebase that was difficult to reason with.

It's my opinion that Angular would have safeguarded those projects from a scattered architecture with its opinionated framework, and ultimately resulted in less overhead associated with onboarding new resources and getting them up to speed.

The types of companies you listed aren't necessarily known as being engineering focused, and for a React project to really scale, I think that you need a good engineering culture to make that happen. Choosing Angular alleviates some of that work, and that's exactly what some companies need.
As a (young) PM - yes!

How I wish engineers in my little company expressed a little more curiosity about our users and how the things we make solve their actual problems. Would be a huge load off my mind.

However, I can’t imagine our engineers taking over my job entirely and being able to just do both. They’re just not the type of people who could handle talking to the marketing and sales people. Not to mention the clusterfuck that is our actual users and use cases.
The hardest part I find with self-cooking is keeping the greens fresh and in stock. A whole head of lettuce is large for just a single hamburger.
For context - there's 1655 calories in a pound of uncooked rice.

Assuming the average meal is >400 calories - you need about 25,000 pounds of rice.

That's 500 50-lb bags.

That's a lot of food and work if all you were doing was just boiling rice!
shrug you have your opinion, am I not entitled to my own ? And since when did not liking something mean you weren't entitled to criticise it ?

American society is screwed up, IMHO. A large part of that is due to the policy of fear used by authorities, due to guns, and another large part is due to the wide "independent" streak within the society - I put it in quotes because it's really just selfishness, and guns are the poster-child for that attitude.

shrug Nothing I say can matter, I can't even vote, but it doesn't mean I don't have eyes to see.

The most appropriate ones here are probably:

> 2. Become incredulous and indignant. Avoid discussing key issues and instead focus on side issues which can be used show the topic as being critical of some otherwise sacrosanct group or theme. This is also known as the 'How dare you!' gambit.

> 5. Sidetrack opponents with name calling and ridicule. This is also known as the primary 'attack the messenger' ploy, though other methods qualify as variants of that approach. Associate opponents with unpopular titles such as 'kooks', 'right-wing', 'liberal', 'left-wing', 'terrorists', 'conspiracy buffs', 'radicals', 'militia', 'racists', 'religious fanatics', 'sexual deviates', and so forth. This makes others shrink from support out of fear of gaining the same label, and you avoid dealing with issues.

> 18. Emotionalize, Antagonize, and Goad Opponents. If you can't do anything else, chide and taunt your opponents and draw them into emotional responses which will tend to make them look foolish and overly motivated, and generally render their material somewhat less coherent. Not only will you avoid discussing the issues in the first instance, but even if their emotional response addresses the issue, you can further avoid the issues by then focusing on how 'sensitive they are to criticism.'

I'm still astounded by how consistently contemporary defenses of Apartheid blamed the objections to it on "anti-Boer bigotry" in order to derail the conversation.
I hope they succeed too, I feel its vital to their success in the long term, although their success in the short term may be difficult.
I only really have experience in the eastern half of the U.S., but on some routes I've found Amtrak significantly cheaper (in coach) than flying, so I consider it if I'm not in a hurry and it's a day train under ~8 hours (not sure if that qualifies as "modestly long"!). The price difference is especially large in Amtrak's favor if you're doing a one-way trip, or to/from smaller cities that don't have much airline competition.

For example, to pick Richmond, VA as a city I know about. Amtrak's Richmond to NYC service is about 6 hours 15 mins, and as low as $32 each way if you buy in advance. Flying is only around 1.5 hours but typically $150 one-way or $200 round-trip. Going the other way, Richmond to Charleston, SC is typically $68 one-way and 7 hours, 15 mins, versus about 3.5 hours and $200 to fly one-way.
Again - if you lived in HCOL... You'd understand.
The level of personal discipline it takes to get released and stay "good" on probation is far beyond what we expect from workers in general and almost certainly stricter than either of us requires for ourselves.

Yeah, it's part of the corrections system. You go on probation or parole and they keep you on a leash. It's intentional. If you don't like it, you can serve out the whole term.

"Saintly". For god's sake people. Listen to yourselves. How many cars I gotta jack before people start calling me a saint, anyway?
Yes, as I said not every project needs a TPM. So if your product manager is trying to take on a TPM role for a project contained within your team, they aren't really adding value.
Long time ago, I also worked for an outsourcing company in a poor country. They didn't call it a startup though.
Carlson is a corporate establishment media host, yet you're willing to cherry-pick particular news items you find reliable from him, yet your framing doesn't offer other corporate establishment media figures the same benefit of the doubt.

I prefer not to get into the weeds on the particulars about who is exposing or responsible for "flat-out lies and falsehoods" - we won't agree, and that's ok, I'm not trying to dissuade you on that front, I am just pushing back against the rhetoric of your comment which suggests your news sources are inherently superior to those you malign, rather than they simply being a reflection of your political biases like everyone else.

Here in New Delhi, people will straight up ask you, especially if they're older.

Trying to get a house in Delhi as a single, straight male is an exercise in discrimination 101. Landlords will ask you if you drink alcohol, eat meat, have female friends, belong to a non-Hindu religion (especially if you're muslim), your caste, and heck, even what city/state you're from.

My friends have been denied housing simply for being from a state with a somewhat poor reputation. Some were denied because they were lawyers AND from a specific caste (the landlords feared that my friends would somehow take over the property through legal shenanigans). And I won't even get into how hard it is for a muslim male to find housing in India, especially outside of big cities.

So much of this simply never gets talked about in Indian society. But its just accepted as something that happens. Sometimes feel that we're developing backwards as a society.
We have discretion build into our society for a reason. Judges, juries, police, all exercise discretion.
There is an interesting dichotomy. On one hand, you simply cannot build advanced semiconductors without thousands of people in scale. We wouldn't have cheap semiconductors if it wasn't for big corporations. On the other hand, the moat that they build in the process through various ways (market capture, lock-ins, IP threats, etc) are real obstacles for startups. Startups are the seeds that clear out old forests and rejuvinate the land. They're necessary but so are the forces that are their obstacles. Conversation here is generally sawtoothing between these two opposing forces but may be there is a role here for some minor form of regulation. A type of an economic free zone for startups where they're immune from large corporate pressures. America could benefit from a Shenzhen/Goungzhou type of a economic free zone.
It goes both ways. If you increase your bet size too much on bluffs, it becomes profitable to just wait for a good hand to call you with and fold everything marginal. The bigger your bluffs, the fewer I need to catch.

You'll also become predictable if you only overbet when bluffing. If you try to deal with that by making all your bets larger, then you lose out on value from your strong hands because I can now profitably fold some hands that I would have had to call you down with otherwise.

Put another way: you can't exploit someone who makes decisions based on pot odds just by changing your bet size, because changing your bet size changes the pot odds.
