Anyone knows if they use any open source doc project to generate this documentation site?
That really doesn’t say anything. Those teams all do very different thinks depending on the problem space. You’re not really making an argument though you are just stating two situations and hoping people arrive at your conclusion of big company is stupid.

Bio: I am at a director level at a major tech company managing cross-functional engineering teams and TPMs. I have experience in building and leading partnerships and programs focused on revenue and distribution growth. I also have experience in building and launching e-commerce and marketing products for some of the industry titans.

In my experience, Technical Program Management (TPM) is an extremely valuable function and capability that can supercharge the output and efficiency of an engineering team. From stakeholder alignment to orchestrating dependencies and from reducing complexity to increasing visibility, TPMs can provide immense value. In my past roles at fast-growth startups, I have built TPM organizations from scratch to help unlock that value. I consider that as my superpower and want to leverage it to help your teams realize the potential of an impactful TPM organization. If you find yourself thinking if your company is ready to hire the first ever TPM or just wondering if you even need a TPM, then I can be of help. Thanks!
I think it's sarcasm
TLDR; Wealth is like a box of Chocolates, you never know what it's gonna get.

Any asset is only worth as much as you can sell it for. It doesn't matter if it's a Mint copy of the Beatle's White Album, an NFT, or 50 acres of prime deep soil farmland. Anyone who grew up going to flea markets knows this.

There is always a risk, when you go to sell something, that there is no demand, or worse yet... you have to pay to get rid of it. For example - land that is listed as "federally declared wetlands", you can't build on it, but you still have to pay taxes, or try to get a greater fool to take it off your hands.

When someone appears on the Forbes list, and is said to have a net worth of $239 Billion, that represents an expression of an opinion, a guess, at best. If that person then goes on to do something brilliant, showing their leadership is likely to increase the value of the things they own, that opinion may go up... however... if that person makes a tactical error... (let's say, offering way too much, on an impulse, to try to buy a social media platform, for example) that opinion may go down.

None of that, however... really matters until the assets are sold, OR if there is a "mark to market" rule somewhere in the agreements used to leverage those assets for a loan. A margin call could then occur, forcing unplanned liquidation, and an even larger downward trend in "value".

If you're not careful, all of this leverage can wipe you out, due to events outside your control.

When an entire class of people are dependent on an asset class for their retirement, and begin to retire at the same time due to deteriorating health and working conditions... the market could collapse in value, a systemic risk is present.
The only successful version of this business I can imagine is, maybe, the ghost kitchen model that is basically App equivalent of a mall food court. So it's basically a handful of giant kitchens to serve an area that offers several styles of cuisine. You order and their delivery drivers go to the one place and bring it to you.

At that point, though, you're not gigging out delivery people. You're just hiring short-term couriers to move stuff to people from the central kitchens. This is, basically, the model that big city Chinese restaurants and pizza places had anyway before the apps muscled in by swamping them with superior SEO.

There's also a lot of cuisines that simply don't travel well and these Doordash/uber eats business are indifferent. Pizzas travel well, Chinese travels well. Sushi kind of does too assuming you can be quick. But ramen? French fries? Lots of stuff just isn't meant for it.
I was a TA for the introductory programming class at Berkeley, CS61a, where we used Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs to teach Scheme, a statically-scoped dialect of LISP. Frankly, I do not recommend it. Scheme is just another programming language, it is not "the one universal programming language to rule them all and in the darkness bind them".

I spent years in mathematics and CS theory and I am a published theoretician. I took two graduate classes from Karp himself and even solved one of Karp's open theory problems because I thought it was a bonus homework problem in an undergraduate class. I am also a programming languages researcher and a serious C++ dev and am now teaching myself digital circuit design. I wrote an integer user-mode RISC-V 64 chip that worked the first time I got it expressed in verilog. That is, I know what I am doing in both theory and practice.

It sounds like you want to know the "heavy, deep, and real" computer science. Never forget this: the only theory worth learning is that which comes from real problems. The theoreticians will tell you otherwise, but do not listen to it. Always think about reality first, theory second. Therefore: first just learn how to code like you know how to breathe. Learn one editor and one language/ecosystem really well. I use GNU emacs and I write most everything in C++.

The first language I recommend is RISC-V assembly language. Then learn C and configure gcc to emit the intermediate assembly interleaved with comments showing the C code that it came from. Practice writing C, predicting the assembly that will come out, and then seeing what actually comes out. Practice stepping through your programs using the debugger. Practice profiling them using gprof. Write lots of little programs that do something mundane and useful, write tests and documentation for them, and release them as open source. See if you can implement one program that someone else finds useful. One way to get started with an established open source project is offer to write tests for them. The best way to learn fancy algorithms is to implement them.
But no government took the decision to end companies that pollute.

So if you want a car, you should pay more for a company, while companies are free to pollute how much they want.
why is Medium blocked in some countries? Or are you saying it is paywalled without supporting your local currency?

Asking because I wasn't aware that some countries block things as bland as Medium.
Prudish? What are you even talking about? I said I found the article interesting and have no problem reading it myself. I also use such language with my friends all the time. I'm not squeamish about it either. And no I'm not Christian, but even if I were why should it matter?

I don't want to share it with others. These others include young kids and a parent who has an interest in construction. We don't cuss at home, and I've never cussed in front of them. Similar situation for most families in my country.

What I'm saying is that by choosing to use language like this (which is COMPLETELY unnecessary btw, and kinda lazy tbh) you're preventing me from sharing it.

There's a reason why serious newspapers don't publish such headings. They cater to a wide demographic, and not everyone is ok with reading such language, and I don't see what's wrong in that.
Not just you.

Hotreload can be handy to some extent, annoying in others - I like to preserve state of given app including what the dom looks like + the window/memory state in devtools. Iterate in code, refresh, then compare. You can do that with multiple browser tabs for example. But not with hotreloading; each tab will re-render/reload the global window state.
It is legal, and that is exactly what businesses do. The statement was just a notification. Any company you do business with and provide your info can contact you, because you overrode the DNC by giving out your contact information.
In my experience, Slack doesn’t differ a whole lot from email. A lot of crud, some useful nuggets, and overall not great for making hard decisions.

Within the team, we use daily stand-ups. Start out with the normal “I did X, working on Y” stuff, try to get that done in 10 minutes (for a team of 6 + manager + occasional BA or tech fellow dropping in). The rest of the 30 min block is open to whatever the team needs - stuff that if left to Slack would end up being a multi-day game of telephone.

Outside the team, Slack is ok for starting conversations, but generally anything important or hard needs a live meeting, even if it’s only for a few minutes. We have a few channels that are exceptions, where the team that “owns” the channel is better than average at making well reasoned responses. But, that’s the exception and those teams are always a pleasure to work with. And this is in a reasonably well functioning mid-sized company. I hate to think what it’s like at a large company.
> And where exactly do you think cattle and chickens and pigs get most of their calories?

I feed my chickens other (dead) chickens. They seem to love it and still taste the same.
Uber is the literal definition of a parasite and is STILL not profitable and STILL has mountains of debt?!?!?!? get fucked.
How does this work, given there is no sale? Sales tax applies to the sale price paid, but there is no payment. I think the same is true for use tax, too.
I agree with you that we should be wary of burning Ammonia as a fuel directly, but its use for liquified hydrogen transport is extremely interesting.

Ah, but you missed the word "famous."

Eric Schmidt asked both John McCain and Obama, "How would you sort a million 32-bit numbers in 1K of memory?"

McCain laughed and said "I guess I should have studied for this!"

Obama had been tipped off on that question. He stroked his chin and said "Well, I don't think the bubble sort is the right choice here."
Read a few of the case studies. These people are either career criminals or large scale drug dealers.
Always on screen can be emulated using an invisible video. There are libraries for this, like https://richtr.github.io/NoSleep.js/. Which sensors are you talking about? Accelerometer and GPS are standard.
Being on the DNC making it so no business ever can call you is a monkey paw wish.

Your bank is absolutely permitted to call you regardless of you being on the DNC. You have an existing business relationship with them.
My neighbor recently found that a young raccoon had gotten stuck in the bamboo next to their house and died. He pulled it out and buried it but we were joking that the bamboo had turned carnivorous. Now, I’m wondering…
Build nuclear power plants and leave everyone alone.
> MUST the third group of "Shapeshifters" ALL be Machiavellian? Careerists, seeking only to use you for your position and influence? Does this category even exist then, for the overwhelming majority of us who don't have much position or influence? This sounds like category for managers and LinkedIn junkies, not individual contributors and normal humans.

You don't have to be a manager to have sycophants. People can use other people for all sorts of things not just career status. E.g. money, emotional support, netflix subscription, whatever.
I would have nodded if I had read this comment when I was in college…
On Android request desktop site also forces the viewport to be desktop-sized. iOS doesn't.
> The only place that you saw people make the claim about driverless cars was on Reddit, management never made that claim...because it makes no sense.

No need to insult me, you can read my response to another comment in this thread where I direct them where exactly in Uber's prospectus they make these claims.

Whether they actually do what they said would make them profitable is another matter.
Only if you do not consider big time drug dealers a safety risk. I cannot believe the ACLU wants to spring a corrupt drug involved cop from prison.
I've seen somewhere that people writing handwritten parers are either newbies or experts
I work a startup with less than 15 technical employees and have experience at tech companies ranging from 100s to 100s of thousands of employees. Suggesting that one could accomplish or maintain a platform like uber with so few heads is a farce.
Imagine having "spare" 50€.

Unless you're absolutely rich, you probably shouldn't default to using a cab in a city known for it's amazing public transport.
Right. But solar insolation at Mars is, indeed, low, just by the r^2 phenomenon. 40%, IIRC.

But you should be able to use perovskite panels and not worry about them getting wet, oxidized, or hot. Those can operate at up to 40% efficiency, gaining back the difference. And, they are very light. You ought to be able to keep dust off electrostatically.

Not that anybody will ever live on Mars, or need methane there.
There are many people serving extremely long sentences due to things like 3 strike laws and mandatory minimums. Unfortunately it comes down to perverse incentives. It’s a lot easier to get elected by being “tough on crime” rather than practicing empathy and developing systems to provide the tools and skills necessary to help people become productive members of society.

Once a person enters the cycle it’s very difficult to exit it. You grow up in a bad situation, get busted for a crime, serve time and exit, lacking the skills to be successful. You’re labeled as a criminal and surrounded by trip wires ready to send you back. Society then uses the fact that you got sent back as proof of why we need tougher sentencing, lobbied on by private prisons who make more money the more people who are locked up. The average person doesn’t stand a chance against that.

I used to believe in harsh sentencing and that people got what they deserved because they violated the law but the more I really learned about the justice system the more I realized it’s not only harming those caught up in it but helping to push society in a direction of even less empathy and human compassion.

I’m not saying we should do away with criminal punishment but I think we should reconsider whether the system and the incentives surrounding the status quo are how we want to treat members of our society and whether this is the legacy we want to leave.
> irrelevant in the age of GPS navigation with live traffic (ie. google maps)

The confused phone calls I get from delivery drivers just about every time I order begs to differ.

And that's assuming they bother to call rather than just leaving my order with the basement apartment or one of my neighbors or in the same address only on Northeast [name] street 8 blocks away rather than Northwest [name] street.

These drivers churn so much they never learn their way out of routine dumb mistakes like that.
It should be pretty easy to measure model performance vs alternatives, no?

Am I misunderstanding something here?
They are looking for qualified leads, 28 years or older, hopefully in a couple, mobile number, where you like to go on vacation, and what type of credit card(s) you own. Scraping social media will absolutely not generate leads that a salesperson can contact.
And this is a great thing actually. Easy and accessible means good UX. Look at how Apple designs their products. You need a gentle learning curve. But while it starts easy, Javascript can be as hard as you want it to be, with a very high skill cap (eg going from optimizing your website to building a framework that generalizes those optimizations).
a 12 yo can break any parental control. what’s the point?
Doctors generally believe in fibromyalgia. What's more controversial is whether it's a disease, disorder, symptom or syndrome.

A patient experiencing fibromyalgia is very obviously unwell, but in many (not all!) cases it's comorbid with depression and treatment with antidepressants and therapy helps with both the depression and fibromyalgia.

As of right now, it's not especially clear what things like fibro and CFS are, and whether they might be mental disorders in some cases, but they're definitely real.
When Google is not your friend (2006)
Just to clarify for the boomers, the meme is that beginners and experts share similar ideas not that they reason about or execute on them in the same way.

Also, the endearing label for those of you in the middle of the bell curve is "midwit".

This meme can mostly be boiled down to accepting the constraints of reality and working around them. The midwit component of the meme is often something like "nooo, but everything has to be perfect".
My comment was questioning the language of the other comment. It said "Congress got burned because they've been complacent.". This is a bizarre way of thinking about it.

In general, I push back against language and metaphors that don't have much value. We get to choose what metaphors we use. So we should choose good ones. Fixating on, i.e. "A versus B" is a competitive metaphor. But the branches of government are not competing against each other. They are working as part of system to (hopefully) maintain some semblance of a functioning representative democracy.

When one branch exercises a check against another branch, I don't think it is useful or interesting to say that it "won". I don't want us to start treating any of the branches as competitors in some kind of game or sport. I don't have much joy when, e.g. the House votes to impeach a President. It might be wise and justified (or not), but it is hardly a cause for celebration. But at times, it is necessary duty.

More specifically... No, Congress didn't "get burned". First of all, the composition of Congress has changed significantly over the last decades. Second, to my knowledge, the Dobbs ruling was not directed in any way at Congress or its legislation.
0: Don't optimize anything, it's too difficult, just hack on the code until it produces correct answers without regard to performance.

1: Optimization takes time, so optimize the critical sections (by choosing appropriate algorithms + data structures) and don't worry about the rest.

2: Don't optimize anything, just write code naturally. The libraries your code calls into are already fast enough because they're written by experts.

3: Optimizing makes code more complicated, so only optimize the critical sections (e.g. with vector intrinsics or atomic memory operations).

4: Just write the code naturally and avoid writing any slow code.

You could create many Twitter-appropriate bell-curve images out of a single real-life distribution of skills/experience.
Look up IIH and POTS. Read through descriptions. Good clue is if symptoms are worse after laying down for awhile.

Then schedule appointment with a neurologist or neuro-ophthalmologist or both. The real test is a spinal tap to measure pressure. They will also drain off fluid if high. I felt 10x better when they did that.

Medication is usually Diamox, lasix, topomax.

It can cause swelling in back of eyes, so sometimes eye doctors will notice first. But not always.
Coming In
Going to college isn't right or wrong it can only improve your chances of getting a job or a higher salary in certain careers.

If this doesn't work out moving to the probability of a windfall maybe desperation but it's not smart.

If people believe this is their only hope that's sad and we should guide them to make better decisions.
Doesn't prevent someone from encoding the IP address in colors or something though.
> belongs to the state?

Oh please. Cool it with the strawman arguments. It's boring.

They aren't owned by the state. They simply can't kill the human growing inside them. That's it, that's all it is.

We don't need to drop to analogies and hyperbole, we have the language to describe what is happening. A woman, in most instances, chooses to have a baby grow inside of them. But regardless of how it got there, at a certain point that baby deserves human rights.

That point is all that's up for debate. At what point does a baby become a human with rights to life.

One side argues birth, one side argues conception. The vast majority decided viability 22 weeks (disturbing imo but neither here nor there).

My human right to free speech stops at the point it harms someone else.

I don't see why these rights would be any bloody different.

If you want to debate this issue you need to be willing to define when a baby becomes a human, because THAT is the only thing being debated here.
Another article that notices a racial disparity in prison sentences then infers the cause must be racial inequality in the sentencing.

I'd like to see jaut one analyze the socio-economic and educational levels of these offenders and see if there are factors that go beyond race. Overly harsh punishments are a problem for everyone but maybe there are other factors at play here that funnel minorities into the justice system in higher numbers.
I think the market is ripe for a real Uber Black. A super premium service that guarantees a cab no matter where you are within a minute. No cancellations. Your own personal on demand limousine. People are so tired of cancellations and not finding rides, I bet some will pay a premium just for the predictability that you can go anywhere whenever you desire.
Why not use Write Freely or Write.as?
Tempted to give this a try instead of feedly, but I can't find anywhere that they say (a) how much premium costs, or (b) what the restrictions on the free plan are. All I can see is on the Sign Up page, there's a drop-down that says what you get if you try premium for 14 days - no mention of how much it costs after that, or what the limitations are without it.

I don't mind paying (I currently pay for feedly), but I'd like to know what I'm up for before signing up.
If you are talking about Figure 1 of https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.04426, you are reading it wrong. Y axis is bits-per-byte and lower is better.
Just wondering where the credibility to make statement (2) comes from? This is a pretty big thing to say about a company that has generally been tackling some major technical challenges for quite a few years now. Yes, the economics of the whole thing has changed drastically during their journey, and there have certainly been leadership failures along the way, but they have obviously had technical leadership for quite some time now.

Betteridge’s law of headlines: no.
If you're doing business travel you can probably justify 50€ fairly easily.
The 9 euro ticket is only for local and regional trains. However, you can just get about anywhere taking only local and regional trains, but it'll be a very long day.
How did he run for president while incarcerated? If elected, would they serve from prison, or? Self-pardon?
You could literally say that about anything.

The world is falling apart and people are worried about Nim compiler version 2.0. Talk about misplaced concerns.

The world is falling apart and people are worried about who wins champions league this year. Talk about misplaced concerns.

Where exactly is the line for you? What if this article began with a picture of a guy with his dick out fucking a pig that had a picture of an airport drawn on it. Would that still be acceptable? Because if its not then I have to say. The world is falling apart...
