Based on the comments here, it looks like people have this notion of "Work in XYZ domain is hard/important/impactful and should get paid more".... but that isn't how pay works in real world.
Because it creates a conflict of interest, where their income depends on the continued significance and validity of their research results.

And when a researcher this fanatically believes in their own research, were they properly free of biases going into the research? Is writing the book the consequence of amazing research results, or did they plan to write the book from the start (maybe seeing it as the only way to make investment into the research worthwhile)?
It's not intellectually honest to weigh Google's worst actions (like tricking poor people into clicking on ads, when they would obviously much rather trick rich people to click on ads) without also weighing their contributions to the world, of which the hedge fund has none.
Turboprops indeed fight wing tip vortices. But they also have a problem of not being able to shape air properly like Turbofans can do with stator vanes and such. As you stated, ducts are awesome.
Do you have any plans for “easy auth” (that’s what MS support called it despite it not being called that anywhere in the Azure UI or documentation) with azure functions or at least not allowing people to try to set up auth for azure functions when according to your internal support AD-B2C “easy auth” is not compatible?

BTW I just want to say that functions kinda work aside from the above issue, but having to write a boot-loader that handles auth, kinda defeats the purpose. Or is it just that AD/B2C is so bad even your support guys don’t know how to set it up? Tried this about 12 months ago so maybe it’s changed in that time but fuck me dead getting auth to work with functions was a pain in the ass and made me swear I’d never touch another azure project again. I don’t think the problem is with Azure Functions per say, every interaction with AD/B2C at every org I’ve worked for that used Azure has been a monumental disaster of poor documentation and excessive complexity. You need a true expert in auth to work with it and even then they will spend half their working life swearing. The auth offerings from Google and AWS just work.

AD/B2C is also the biggest problem with teams (I just can’t log in on my machine as I’ve too many accounts for it not to get in a tizzy). I can’t even play minecraft cross platform because of it.

Whenever you introduce fluids into this sort of experiment, any turbulent flow will add indeterminism to outcomes - this applies to air as well.

Being a shitty employer isn't the sort of thing an NDA is made for. It's not a trade secret that they treat their employees poorly.
Sort of. Verbs are still eschewed so rather than finding a 'book' link, it would be a 'booking' link to which a POST could be made to create a new booking. As a note, "Booking" is a confusing example because while a hotel booking is a noun it at first glance reads as a progressive tense verb.
Energy is proportional with the speed squared, momentum with the speed. You have a fixed budget of energy, initially stored as chemical energy in jet fuel. The engines have a more or less fixed thermodynamic efficiency, so you transform the chemical energy in a fixed amount of kinetic energy of the air being pushed out of the engine. You want that air to have as much momentum as possible (Newton’s action-reaction principle: the momentum the plane gives to the air is the momentum the air gives to the plane).

Now, for a given energy, you can push some mass of air with speed v or 4 times as much with speed v/2. The momentum of the air in the latter case is double the first case: 4 m v/2 = 2mv. You always want to move more air at lower speed.

You achieve that with higher and higher bypass ratios. Of course, with a higher bypass ratio the engine becomes larger and heavier (and draggier), so there are limits. But if you could increase the bypass ratio without increasing the engine weight and drag, you would always do it. As a bonus, with lower air speed come lower vibrations and noise.
In 2016 I left a very scathing, and very truthful, of my current employer on Glassdoor a couple of weeks before deciding to quit. Two weeks later, Glassdoor sends me an email notifying me that the employer is pursuing legal action and I have two options: 1) delete the review, or 2) stand by the review if it's true and, when it comes down to it, my identity may need to be revealed in court when necessary. That was my catalyst to quit.

I stood by the review and Glassdoor notified me that the employer pulled back on the legal action. My review is still there. And Glassdoor did their best to not reveal my identity under the threat of legal action -- not until absolutely necessary.
Have you read the merger agreement that Elon signed? Bot’s aren’t even mentioned. For anything about bots to be relevant to the deal Musk’s team don’t have to show that their were more bots but that Twitter’s statements about how they measure bots were incorrect and that the difference caused by those incorrect statements caused a materially adverse change. Since Twitter’s statements about bots are very specific and caveated (they label a small random sample, and estimate how many bots there are in the overall population using the number of bots they see in the sample, they use “significant judgement” and the number could be higher than what they say) it’s really hard to see Elon prevailing on this question.

Looking to survey my fellow startup/project hackers who monitor their traffic year round.

Does your traffic slow down during the summer? Or better yet, do seasons change the amount of traffic your site gets?

I am most interested in those who host projects that aren't affected by industry (IE. obviously if produce you produce tax tools you would see an influx during that time.)

I think they do try to verify that the person posting the review actually worked at the company they're reviewing. Otherwise it would be filled with spam and competitors trying to badmouth each other.
> In a turbofan, the turbine mostly rotates the various stages and creates very little thrust.

That undersells the turbine. Turbine powers not only the various compressor stages, but also the turbofan itself. All power comes from the turbine and it is is arguably the most challenging part of a jet engine. Turbine blades are tiny and fit in the palm of your hand with fingers closed [1]. Temperatures through the roof, it needs compressor bleed air to keep the turbine blades cool or the blades would melt. I was part of the team that did mechanical design of turbine blades and one of interesting challenges I remember was the trade off between the pressure-side bleed vs. trailing-edge dump techniques of cooling turbine blades. Aero engineers prefer razor thin trailing edge for better efficiency (pressure-side bleed as you can see in the picture). These are tiny holes/slots on the edge of the blade that bleed compressor air from various stages which is at 800F and trying to cool 2200F blade edge. So mechanical engineers (us) would prefer a trailing-edge-dump technique of cooling where we would make the edge thicker and drill the holes at the apex of the edge for better cooling performance. Pressure-side bleed usually won because higher fuel efficiency requirements and pushed us to do other things to cool the blade, even if that requires pulling air from a cooler compressor stage, which impacts efficiency too.

Another fun fact, the whole thing leaks hot gas like a sieve until engine reaches temperature and the tip of the turbine blades seal the hot gas path through elongation along the radial direction. Reminds me of the famous SR-71 fuel tank seals.

Jet engines are insane. So much complexity.

Wait, membership in Republican party guarantees you not having ectopic pregnancy? How does that work? That goes way beyond my knowledge of biology and human anatomy, I'd like to know more about it.

I think it was just mentioned above no laws are being passed that concern ectopic pregnancies. Is that not correct?

Compare the amount of effort that goes into both design and production of a physical part and a line of code.

A single physical part generally has many, many inputs and outputs (expressed as its physical contact surfaces, tolerances, forces and stresses of all possible kinds from all directions they are supposed to withstand, etc., all with the added dimension of time) compared to a line of code or even a function. You cannot design a 'functionally pure' part, or design a part that creates itself for every discrete 'use'. And unlike a line of code, it can't be quickly replaced so you must get it right. And if you get it wrong, people may die in this particular example. Etc.

And that's before we become concerned with actual production of that part, whereas all you need for to write a line of code is a text editor or pen and paper.

>That has been the de facto way to use netflix ever since its inception

The pedantic me wants to remind you that the original way to watch Netflix was to have DVDs delivered to your home. That was the original inception. By developing their backend so that streaming on the internet became so ubiquitous, they dug their own grave. All of the studios got to sit back and watch (popcorn included) as Netflix paved the way by doing all of the expensive R&D, find all the gotchas in delivering video to shitty home connections, mobile, etc. Once it was stable and established, all of the studios said thanks, hired people away, and built their own. They then took their ball and went home to their own platforms. Meanwhile, Netflix has pretty much been thrown a haymaker leaving them in standing knockout.
As someone involved in universities - uni's that are blue are actively discriminatory against men. People from the outside can argue as they like, but when you're actually in it you are told that 1. Men are the cause of bad things everywhere. Congress, Jeff bezos, trump, your typical ideas of patriarchy.
2. Men are responsible for and initiate abuse always. The idea of woman abusing men is not even entertained.
3. Criticism of this means you're sexist/bad/undeserving of life. If you look at how people act on Twitter, that's close to it.

These are actual required classes and is how administration enforces policy.

Most people are taking their ideas of how uni politics were 10-20 years ago. But things have changed. Psuedo-woke Twitter is unfortunately real people, and they have jobs in government.

On top of this:

Universities act as their own courts, they can and will eject students for heresay claims. No due process.

Universities are textbook dictatorships. The students cannot vote for whom makes the rules. Yet they are directly affected.

Their costs and spending have risen dramatically over time. They argue this is because of less government aid - it's really because they don't control spending. They will overspend on cafeteria decor and luxurious dorms. Politically motivated programs that students are forced to pay for.

Why on earth would any young man go into that when there's plenty of trade roles hiring? Make good money, start a family, own your own life.

I became disillusioned with EE when I worked with a bunch of EEs (mostly MS EE, I think) at a software company. It was the same mix of people who know what they're doing and people who have just been sliding by most of their life--same mix as I found in other professions. I was hired because I was a programmer who knew enough about EE to be dangerous.

That said, the people I know who work in EE in aerospace seem to have an uphill-both-ways job experience, in terms of all the documentation and justification they do for their designs. There's a revolving door of new hires, and every once in a while somebody will get hired and actually stick it out.

python has had virtual environments forever now. what was it missing?
That’s awesome. I had a similar experience, started out in comp sci and switched to game design and found it way easier & more fulfilling. Although a difference is that rather than being top of my class, I nearly failed all the courses I took. I ended up as a coder anyway and I find the mental models that I learned in game design often help me out when understanding the business side of what I’m coding (and often I can find a simpler solution that meets our users’ needs just as well if not better)

Very true. I never said the turbine is not a marvelous piece of engineering. But it DOES provide very little thrust.

Technically, wasn't Black Mirror a BBC production, but then Netflix paid to have an additional season made. Plus, a holiday special IIRC. If you can't get the original production peeps to do more Black Mirror, then it's not really going to be the same. Something along the lines of maybe, but at that point, it's not the same so why bother?

Wow. Really grounding to see the personal troubles of such a monumental figure.
You asked about Congressional power to legislate, not whether 14A grants an abortion right. These are different questions. For example, it seems Congress could plausibly pass a general abortion ban with exceptions for medically necessary abortion under 14A. Moreover, if Congress wants to give itself additional power more explicitly, it could pass an Amendment to give itself authority to legislate on abortion (of course, this requires bipartisan cooperation).
Petite Vue is a great concept but the project seems abandoned. What is the best alternative?
With a fairly basic set of woodworking tools, you can turn out high-quality cutting boards and charcuterie boards pretty easily. Advantages of these include the fact that they're easy to produce in batches and don't take up a lot of space to store (so it's straightforward to keep some inventory on hand). I've done this and ended up with a steady drip-feed of local sales. It's a nice source of pocket money, though not a reliable one.
I know things are different now but I grew up in the suburbs and yet went all kinds of places. Got my driver's license at 16. Parents let me borrow one car or another all the time. Even before that though, rode bikes all over.

I think 'becoming a historian of the craft' is very much what a first year phd is supposed to do, and a large part of what doing a literature review is all about. It helps crystallise what exactly your research questions should be, and what experiments you should do to answer the questions. I think this article will be useful for the author to see how their thinking has evolved over time when they read it back in 3 or 4 years, because I think a lot of changes happen to a persons thought over a phd.

I see how one can argue that's why Haskell hasn't caught on, with the same line of reasoning. So I feel very comfortable dismissing it.
Sorry, but this thread excludes arguments that presuppose the "life of a child" maybe there are different threads that follow that line of reasoning.

This thread is also not about post-birth situations. I'm strictly interested in discussing the construction of a bodily autonomy right to abortion that is not predicated on the aliveness of anything. Maybe you'll have better luck elsewhere.

We are not in the 19th century. There are a lot of Republican women in power. Here's one specifically from Idaho, if we were talking about Idaho laws: https://www.idahostatesman.com/news/politics-government/stat...

I see no indication Republican women radically differ from Republican men substantially on this issue, at least in the polls I've seen. And if there were, there are enough prominent Republican women that would be able to speak up on the issue.

So I think your simplistic take of "patriarchal Republicans oppress women again" is probably a couple of generations late.
I heard this phrased as people wanting “revenge instead of equality”.

It will be interesting to see what happens as the pendulum continues its over-corrective course. Will there be a long-delayed reckoning like with China's preference for boys and the one child policy? I don't expect the ideologues who are encouraging the current trajectory will be around to pay the price for it.
And Google Docs has its fair share of issues too. I've seen many Google Doc documented with the issues described here for Word.

Well, a lot of people warn of those, but you were one of the naive people who believed throwing your career on rusty crap was a way of "never ending unemployed" or you thought banks for some reason were the best technological choice option then I guess those are the consequences of your actions (not to mention the mental toll)
So you're suggesting that a high stress, overcrowded, more polluted urban environment and lifestyle is actually healthier than a rural one?

What makes you think that "correcting along these lines" wouldn't make the differences in mortality even more pronounced?
A turbine, by definition, provides zero thrust, because it works the other way (it extracts energy from the flow).

What you meant to say was that the air flowing through the engine core provides very little thrust, because most of its energy is being extracted by the turbine almost immediately after combustion.
Before I moved to the technology sector, I worked in academia and earned a fraction of what I earn now. I loved doing research in my field, and now I'm moderately interested in my work. I don't hate it, but I don't wake up saying, " Man, isn't this great?"

However, I would not go back to work in research for the miserable salary I was getting. If they paid the same amount I make now, maybe.
