Computer science. (I have a BS and MS.) I taught at a boot camp for a few years, and now teach full time at a state university.

I kinda fell into it. I wrote some guides that were popular, and the head of the program at this boot camp was copying my examples for content (I had placed the code examples in the public domain, so he was acting ethically, don't worry), and he stopped and thought, "I should call this guy." They were a startup and needed folks to teach. I had just left the company I cofounded and was drifting for a bit, so it was good timing.

The university is in the small town I live in (about 100k population) and I organized a tech meetup here, and met the head of the CS department that way. That ultimately led to me being hired recently.

For casual teaching, be a part timer. There are lots of night courses that need teaching.

Private boot camps should pay around $90/hr. Adjunct positions at universities probably pay about $1000/class/month. It's really not good money, but it's good experience. I taught a couple quarters as an adjunct at the university and the positive student reviews I gathered contributed to me getting the job, for sure.
> Pensions are gone, salaries are higher, job security is lower, performance expections are higher, management is more merit-based than seniority based, etc.

Where are salaries higher? That doesn't seem to be the case in real terms in most places.
I looked again at the idiomatic solutions and of the GC languages, on the benchmarks that are relevant to me, go leads the pack (except unchecked swift which doesn't really count, and julia which I think may use actual magic). I feel somewhat vindicated in not bothering to learn c# yet. I am trying to become more fluent at julia though. It already has a very extensive set of libraries from it's community. I may eventually use julia for the things I reach for go for now, and probably some of the things I use matlab, c++ and cuda for.
That's true, but there could theoretically be more then one default. I'm not arguing in favour of it, just pointing out the possibility. it would be pretty simple to create a <html styling="modern"> so that it's opt-in.

I personally just don't see the point. There are a lot of bare bone frameworks around and if you're doing a static website (which would likely be the only type to benefit from that)... The <10 kilobytes gzipped css won't matter for the most part.
We need to figure out dark energy and dark matter before making that conclusion.

Just a nice example of how fast fake news is spreading across the globe.

Should be punishable.
Instantly thought of the same ressource. Still something I recommend regularly to people.
or use a subset of c++ that does everything c does, plus OOP, RAII and smart pointers for free, and it compiles and links with c code smoothly as well. the only price to pay is that libstdc++ runtime must be present, which is just a few MBs that can even fit for small embedded boards.
Investors have become addicted to easy money, so that outlook is embedded in the whole economy. Perhaps higher yields can produce better investments, since there will be a cost to these loans.
Xcode definitely has it's issues but I think they're moving to a system where Swift, and the Swift Package Manger specifically, can provide a bunch of this kind of functionality.

Take a look at this 'Meet Swift Package Plugins' talk from WWDC 22 which goes into detail: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022/110359/

What's nice about this is that it's not restricted to Xcode, it can be integrated with your CIDI, too.
I hear you, but let's circle back to the part where EMS staff is being poached by Dunkin fucking Donuts. That should not even be possible. A pizza delivery driver in a decent delivery area can make multiples (!!!) of the median salary for EMS staff.

I don't know much about code and what this page accomplished, but I'm browsing the page on a mobile phone and is hard to read, maybe accessibility should be part of the challenge too.
> They'll be getting shit for that for decades.

I saw the original video the user that reported it created. That guy was a deceptive idiot. It was obvious that he used trial and error to find a strange, finger-spread death grip that duplicated the issue in the most severe way. What is bazaar is someone that was obsessive enough to develop a grip that produced the issue with the most effect, and used it for personal benefit to gain notoriety.

Not being an antenna engineer, I had also noticed the exact same issue on my Motorola v551 years before, but not that it had anything to do with the grip, merely touching the device anywhere on it caused signal degradation. Apparently, this was a known issue that existed for decades, long before cell phones became ordinary, and the issue can be reproduced on every cell phone from every manufacturer, as well as ordinary radios, and anything that uses an antenna. But I didn't remotely think to try to attack Motorola for personal benefit. I just set the phone down when signal was weak and used bluetooth for data or calls, eliminating the issue, which wasn't Apple's fault and is apparently due to the limitations of antennas.

Singling out Apple was ignorant and deceptive, and fundamentally, Steve Jobs was correct about what that guy was doing, intentionally holding it in an unnatural way in order to produce the effect. That entire affair was nothing but a hatchet job that had nothing to do with user satisfaction and everything to do with negative and toxic personalities that irrationally believe they can gain personal satisfaction by causing misery. The most insidious types of mental illness are those where the mentally ill individual themselves do not suffer, instead they are compelled to make others suffer, which is how narcissism is generationally sustained.
People still believe the Pearl Harbor attack was an inevitable occurrence or a radar detection and communications problem almost 100 years later. President Roosevelt told General Marshall to send a message to the Hawaiian commanders: "Don't interfere with Japan's overt act of war. The United States desires that Japan commit the first overt act."

Maybe in 100 years the questions and evidence presented in the 5 hour documentary "September 11: The New Pearl Harbor (2013)" will be answered and/or justified.
TWA 800 violently exploded in mid air. That would not be caused by an inert missile impact. The high speed impact of an inert body into an aircraft the size of a 747 is not a reasonable explanation for a violent in-flight breakup on top of the fact that there is literally zero evidence for it. The most likely explanation is exactly what is written in the official report.
People in general are idiots and would freeze to death at the end of the month just as they roll to credit when the paycheck dries up.

You’d have to do it on a day to day basis or hourly. That could actually work - use too much power in an hour or day and it shuts off for awhile.
I think the 4.4% unemployment projection is from Table 1 of this document:

“Federal Open Market Committee Summary of Economic Projections“ Sept 21, 2022

> Projections for the unemployment rate are for the average civilian unemployment rate in the fourth quarter of the year indicated.

Especially because it’s all relatively self contained.

Removing brew stuff is trivial, and with sip being the default it’s really hard to put the machine in a state that requires a clean install.

I’m really unsure how someone could put up with clean installing needing to be part of their workflow for that long without questioning whether that’s normal or not.

Even in the pre-sip days, I’d have to go out of my way to make my Mac unusable since it’s a very opinionated platform of isolating data/apps into very specific locations.

unless a kext is involved. Then all hell breaks loose.

Killing off the zombie companies will drive unemployment rate higher. Good in the longer term, but it won't come without a cost. That's the price we pay for such an extended period of cheap credit.
I wonder if everyone has a different optimum here based on different eyesight, screen size, and usage patterns. I always have a slightly different zoom on every website I visit.

With this one I tend to agree, I can't see enough text at once and the margins seem a bit wide.
Haha, you know I know a lawyer tell me the monthly payments to victims of torture was 10x what another human rights lawyer said, $2000 / mo vs $200 / mo. Yeah play the system. You know who else plays the system? Bosses insisting above 7 objections and ways out to perform repetitive strain injury with my back in order for me to have an injury that can't or won't ever be corroborated "by a medical professional". And get me to spend the rest of my life with backpain over $3 of labor, begging dogshit after dogshit to please believe me and diagnose my injury.

That's playing the system.
I've been to villages in Eastern Europe and wood burning is among the main methods of heating. I'm guessing the price increases of everything else is what's a bigger problem there.
dcrainmaker had an article where he reviewed the whoop, he liked most things about it, except the accuracy. Without that the rest was meaningless.
What does the far right government have to do with the "inevitable collapse"? I'm not choosing sides but if the prior government's policies have led to this moment I don't see the logic here. I can imagine there are distasteful things about such leadership, but I'm curious about the economic and NIMBY aspects only.
News for hackers...
Eh, I'd say the vast majority of people find it much more comforting to embrace the "mere banality of fate" explanation than to even entertain the idea that an errant missile test could be covered up by putting intelligence agencies in charge of the investigation -- let alone that it actually was.
I have never jumped off a bridge either but I certainly have a lot of insight knowing that I won't enjoy it.
I've been trying to follow this as well but as you mention all the news is coming out of India and it is only on really obscure YouTube channels. I've not seen one iota of evidence of an actual coup or house arrest mentioned by any of the big news channels or corporate media.
I was on the subway in Toronto in 2017, two college age girls had an inch thick stack of 4x6's that they were going through. It was a strange throwback to the pre-digital era.

In economics, the Phillips curve is well known. The Phillips curve specifies that there is a short-run tradeoff between unemployment and inflation. Thus, trying to tamp down inflation in the short-run would inevitably increase some unemployment.
It sounds more like "take over" than "assistance."
> Who's to say my "Catholic light" behaviour isn't how the majority of what Catholics act?

It's not about how the sheep act, or if they believe their own dogma. It's how the leadership acts, now and historically. And public sentiment is also localized. Not every Christian is born in white America.

> Characterizing a group by a small minority is the work of demagogues and thugs.

The small minority (a questionable label without citation) does the majority of damage, while the rest of the congregation fund and venerate them, sticking their heads up their own asses so that they don't have to see what they're really contributing to.

Painting your detractors as thugs is just so lame, so lazy, I know you can do better than that.

UB throws a huge wrench into all of this. The behavior of a C++ program is defined by a combination of the code, the compiler, the compiler flags, and the target archecture. You can't write a source to source translator that preserves the semantics of a program with UB without that extra information about how it was compiled. It's a very hairy problem.

Well if what they say about UAPs is true, you could do the same thing the 4D version of minecraft does where it visualises what 4D objects would look like for us in our 3D reality.

Really, though, it's just one paragraph after another of pablum. Does it amount to, "All our Uranium reserves belong to WEF!" Anyone know the real story? With this much avoiding-the-topic, there just has to be something nefarious going on.
Then the people, in general, need to stop listening to the echoed words of Grover Norquist ("government so small you can drown it in a bathtub") and recognize that taxes are the price we pay for living in a civilized society.

After all, where else can public sector wages come from?

It also needs to be said that this is a common and despicable tactic of the right wing: first, vote consistently against any support for the public sector; then, claim that the public sector is fundamentally incapable of doing a good job (and should thus be deprioritized further), rather than it having been deliberately starved of funding and public support over the course of decades.

We have the public sector we vote for and are willing to pay for: no more, no less.
While that's a non-zero amount, the moral panicking probably caused more than it could've ever helped. For comparison, there's thousands of child washing machine related injuries per year, but probably fewer NYT articles about it.
If you can't experience wonder, that must make you history's most recent example of someone who's basically figured everything out. That must be very nice for you, but you are assuredly wrong about many things that you know you know.
I'd be tempted to put Linux on a Chromebook (I don't trust Google...), but Chromebook vendors often sell a windows version of the same laptop, but with a different (standard) BIOS.

I bought one of those once (an Acer Cloud Book), and it was great. Not high end though.
A bit of a tangent, but does anyone know of a good utility that can index a large number of PDF files so one can do fast keyword searches across all of them simultaneously (free or paid)? It seems like this sort of utility used to be very common 15 years ago, but local search has kind of died on the vine.
Fun fact, Xiaomi does by default on their stock OS.
What Eastern Europe? Romania (pretty balanced and not reliant on gas) and Poland (mostly coal, locally mined) are self sufficient. Baltics maybe?

i've settled tentatively on the notion that nothing simplistic works for societal truthseeking, but a series of principles like education, community, (institutional and economic) fairness, etc. do work in concert to combat mediopolitical narratives that are wholly unconcerned with truth but rather control. this need for multidimenionalism is why change is so grindingly slow, but it's totally worth continuing to support and advance these principles at a local and state level against motivated, moneyed interests.

i should note that i do believe in science and the scientific method but reject scientism and expertise. part of this faith is understanding that no one person can embody the truth of a field, but all of the practitioners together can tell you insightful things about it. it's still ultimately up to the discernment of the observer to reach reasonable conclusions based on that imparted knowledge though.
that's a good question, I have yet to find a good beginner friendly modern c++ education material, be it a book or some course, that can make c++ learning simpler, to the point and enough to start to work with the language before diverting into those deep concepts.

Someone needs to write a c++ 101 book, followed by 201 and 301 for beginner, intermediate, and advanced users.
There is a lot of hopium on social media about this right now because we mostly only see the Ukrainian side of this conflict.

The likely outcome to this war is Ukraine losing territory. There is no reasonably likely outcome where Ukraine will liberate ALL of the occupied territories.

Putin will indeed use tactical nukes, or at least demonstrate them, should Ukraine push much further into the occupied land.

...but you are right that little of that is in our hands. Domestically, we need to ramp up energy production. Both in the US and EU.
Think you could tell more of the story? I feel like there’s a lot missing between the How it Started Getting Better and How it Improved.
Please clarify what you mean by "dropped". If you are talking over a 12 month window, that is most certainly not the case:

Ignoring CPI, inflation is rampant in many other areas such as agriculture (basically everything is up) and manufacturing of good (again, everything seems up, metal, paint, fasteners, etc.)
The susceptibility of the SD card to data corruption is a big showstopper. The only digital files I've had corrupted were stored on my phone's external SD cards (after 3 to 7 years). When I looked into it, it seemed to be an issue related to lack of radiation hardening. So if you do make this service, please include some error detection/error correction metadata.
Economic activity is not inimical to humanity. Not in and of itself. That's a terrible way to think of your fellow man and our relationship to nature.

My utility (SCE in the US) has traditionally had consumption based progressive tiered pricing for years (monthly basis). Recently, they have been pushing consumers to time of use pricing though (higher rates at peak time of peak consumption). So, consumers can adapt.
For anyone unaware, earlier this year, Kazakhstan faced protests over gas prices (it was a tipping point, there's a lot of wealth inequality) and this president requested the help of Russian security forces to enter the country and help quell riots, and they ended up killing rioters [1].

Most of my Kazakh friends were rooting for the rioters, wanting a more free Kazakhstan, while one friend close to the government was sharing government-sponsored propaganda against the rioters.

It's interesting to see the Kazakh president now take this stance and say all of this.

What's the supposed difficulty to just use Cabal and not Nix? I had alot of difficulties running into Nix installation issues not along ago.

What resources does Nix handle for IHP? I can guess ostgres and the sql ui.
Yes, they do. The first one even runs an FSF-endorsed OS (PureOS).
Incident analysis - especially where explosives are concerned - is absolutely something the CIA does regularly. (As is causing such incidents.) If I asked the CIA to determine if something was enemy(ish, in this case) action, I'd expect to get a fairly detailed report explaining why or why not back.

I'm skeptical until they provide some details on the FOIL documents received.

The NTSB worked for four years and released a report, as expected.
> You could very well thrive on plants exclusively

Survive, yes.

Thrive? No, not really.

And it's absolutely not the case that everyone can even survive on a pure vegetarian/vegan diet. Some people have medical conditions that make it impossible. Many, many, many people do not have the money to buy the unquestionably much more expensive food required to maintain a nutritious vegetarian or vegan diet.

The ability to do so is a privilege of the abled and well-off.
This whole design pattern of wasting screen real estate in desktop browsers drives me crazy. If I want narrow text I'll make my browser window narrow.

On mobile, so many times it ends up creating a bad UX, but I will say that it does make more sense there where you can't change your browser width.
I was using WSL for awhile and some things weren't quite right. So I figured out a way to unleash the full power of Ubuntu:

> Malaysia Airlines Flight 17

This is what seals it for me. Sadly, so much time has elapsed, and the world has turned to such shit, that we have multiple other incidents to compare to. Not just MH17, but also PS752, and many others that did not receive as much attention (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_airliner_shootdown_inc...). TWA800 looks nothing like these.
Semi related iWatch Rant - if you think running data is bad, try tracking your sleep.

It just doesn't work.

- Sleep for 3h - wake up for 1, sleep for 5 more: records 3h only.

- (being a parent of a small baby) do not sleep at all during the night, sleep 4+3 hours during the day: 0 hours recorded

- sleep trough the night but wake up every 90-100 minutes (baby again): 0 hours recorded

Damn, this is a $500+ device, and it cant even get basic sleep data correctly.
Also, it takes anywhere from 1min to couple of hours for data to appear in the Health app.

OTOH my wife has ~3 year old Huawei Fit watch, which was about $120, and that thing records every 10-15min or longer nap. Without a mistake.
I didn’t think I was going out on limb in assuming that the details and limitations of a naval defense weapon were probably something to guard.

> Google is pretty proud of their record of not losing user data.

As far as I know, they just haven't admitted to losing consumer data. Until they define that and put even a little bit of effort into checking whether it might hold true, they don't really have anything to be proud of.
No, because I am not connected to the grid. If I wanted to be, it’s a big hassle.
As an anti-capitalist, I would love a society where everyone benefited from unpleasant jobs being automated away. However, under capitalism, only the owners will benefit. That's because automation turns labor into property. That means the owners of property, capitalists, benefit.

If the value of automation were distributed differently it'd be great. If workers owned a company such as in a worker-cooperative structure, then the workers would be happy to focus less on stuff they don't like and focus on different things. Or a strong state could impose taxes on highly automated industries to fund a kind of universal basic income. But under our status quo, automation benefits the capitalists much more than the general population.
