modern medical forms do indeed ask for sex assigned at birth (or some variation on that) rather than gender, unless gender is specifically what they're after. And there really is very little variation since almost everyone is part of a hospital system nowadays and literally everyone does state/insurance interactions that require specific questions/etc.

OP is just being colloquial. But you are correct that there is a difference between sex at birth and gender and the medical system does handle that.

Last year we adopted Numba for GPGPU programming. It is a Python compiler with LLVM back-end and full CUDA support. It generates the same code that NVCC (CUDA compiler for C++) does only it compiles Python code and not a C++ .cu dialect.

No one in our organization writes heterogeneous code in C++ anymore.

I think your main point is correct, but the Music Genome Project had experts humans listening to each and every song. It originally started out to build music-store recommendation kiosks (yes kids, music used to be sold in physical stores), and it took them 5 years to pivot to streaming audio. Given when they started, I expect that they just bought a lot of CDs to start. By the time they got into streaming, they of course had licenses. So Pandora didn't defy RIAA; they spent money and built business relationships, two things unavailable here.

Almost every human civilization is extremely environmentally damaging in some way. Much of the global North would be uninhabitable without heating for a proportion of the year.

Limiting ourselves to places we can occupy (and actually work/produce) year round without environmental control would mean basically killing off a significant chunk of the planet's population and telling loads of whoever is left that they need to leave behind their homes and move.

Compared to eating less meat, that seems to be a much bigger ask.
Their rate of doing so is currently 3x lower than the USA per capita, and rising quickly primarily because of shit like what happened in the article. It's better there, but it's still a problem.
Watching the money flow used to bother me a lot as another obvious survelliance front, and it still is scary to me. Now though, I feel much more like there are exploiters & villians moving huge amounts of money, and I want some oversight, want to bring sunlight to so many of the shady dealings of the world.

I lament to have switched sides on this, but anonymous money does far too much to enable the worst exploitations of this planet. I dont see what the effective alternatives are.

> IT IS NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY NOR THE JOB OF THE SOFTWARE ENGINEER TO DELIVER OR PRODUCE VALUE.

Says who? Is there a law that forbids it?

If companies where SEs are focusing on value are more successful, then naturally it becomes SE responsibility.

> My only concern is to design and implement what they ask for

What they ask for changes over time. The hardest part of SE is not building first version of the software, it's evolving it. If you don't understand where the value is coming from, you will always make wrong predictions. Given freedom, you will always choose to focus on things that matter to you (performance, scalability, fancy tech, etc) instead of things that matter for the business (growth, UX, features).
Of course it's going to be processed unless you're getting it straight from the field. That website's ingredient list for their unflavored grounds:

Water, pea protein, fava bean (9 %, Finland), rapeseed oil.

Looks fairly minimal to me. "Vegans love their processed foods" is a weird take, I don't think they likely eat more processed foods than your typical American.
Secure facilities still need janitors, plumbers, electricians other maintenance people. I worked in a downtown data center that did banking and securities trading and had to badge through three doors to get to my desk. Every night a different janitor I'd never seen before would also badge through both of those doors and empty every trash bin on the floor, and then another person would come in around 3am and vacuum the whole floor for two hours. Based on the rate that new people cycled through those jobs I doubt they were being vetted very hard.
Half the battle at least is most likely in your head. If you bite into a sandwich with very negative thoughts (e.g. it's probably horrible/bad/diseased) then you'll most likely taste something much more different than if you had thought it was a normal delicious meal.

Happened to me. The key for one car worked on another car of the same model.

Nice elderly lady at work asks us to take out her car at lunch to diagnose a noise. We found her '73 Buick Skylark in the multi-story car-park and went to lunch. Ran great. Afterwards I asked, "I thought you were Baptist? Why did you have a St Chris statue on the dash?" Of course she didn't.

We had found the "wrong" car on a lower deck of the car-park but when we got back from lunch parked it on the uppermost deck, unaware it belonged to someone else. When we discovered our error, we imagined what the owner might go through when the car was discovered missing but we kept our mouths shut, fearing some sort of liability.

I bought that old lady's Skylark. Ran like a dang tank.

If you can burn it, there is no point in burring it. We're still taking a lot of stuff from underground and burn it for energy, why not burn the stuff we already have above ground?
You forgot the third option... Grind it up, and put it in inappropriate places... Like "ooh, we can mix it into asphalt"...

Mixing some material that you don't want and can be quite toxic into something you're gonna leave in the environment just seems like a bad idea...

Let me think... When else did we do that? Oh yeah - when we mixed coal fly ash into bricks[1]! Everyone wants mercury poisoning from the bricks their houses were made from - and it was a very cheap way to dispose of otherwise hard to deal with toxic waste!

The thing is, a lot of have been making plant based patties for years using almost no ingredients. All you need for a convincing non-meat burger is quality mushrooms in the patty. Sure, it might not taste exactly like beef but once you consider it like any other meat it's not an issue (pork burgers don't taste like beef, chicken burgers don't taste like pork, vice-versa).

I understand that they have to have some preservatives, but some other products are only there for the novelty or to attract meat eaters. We don't really need to have an entire formula that adds fake blood.

For example, my favourite store-bought one is from Good Butchers and it's simple ingredients that are very similar to what you would make yourself at home:

Wheat gluten, Onion, Organic black beans, Organic mushrooms, Barley, Apple juice, Organic carrots, Organic beets, Water, Organic sunﬂower oil, Organic celery, Tahini, Oats, Organic garlic, Nutritional yeast, Apple cider vinegar, Organic mustard, Natural smoke ﬂavour, Salt, Balsamic vinegar, Natural ﬂavour, Dried shiitake mushrooms, Dried porcini mushrooms, Herbs, Spices.

Meanwhile some other brands have a lot of additives, preservatives and chemicals.

Great points. Consider the source of the message. Is it a gourmet site? A health magazine? A nature conservation or animal protection group? Nope, "Bloomberg delivers business and markets news, data, analysis, and video to the world".
Even worse. If meat is not from some local farmers(and even from them), it can have a ton of antibiotics and other things to increase muscle mass, reduce fat, etc...
Hell, even some vegetables like potatoes/tomatoes can have some awful chemicals in them( Sometimes I feel envy of my grandparents that grow vegetables on their land))

There was a hype bubble yes, and from the perspective of the people who bought into the bubble, it has been a flop. But the industry has still undergone slow and steady growth and this trend will likely continue.
Also makes sense in Japan (and Korea, and maybe other places I don't know about), where the populace is very mindful not just of making sure garbage ends up in a can, but as well separating it based on the type of garbage.

Contrast with the US, where people decide to save a few bucks a month by dumping their garbage bags along the side of the road, or tossing garbage out the window of their car.

Oh god yes. The "collect data" was such an "underpants gnomes" business model thing. Just thinking about it gives me flashbacks to industry events where insufferable people droned at me about this.

And yes, another vote here for early proofs of concept and rigorous testing. Not everybody gets what really matters in data quality, but the surest way to find out is to try to build something and see if it really works.

Historically, one of the reasons not to create one massive blob with all your stuff in it is containment of the blast radius of any kind of failure. The filesystem at least has (probably) reasonable consistency checking and repair tools, and you're likely to see integrity problems discovered at a file level, rather than experience catastrophic losses.

I think we're not yet at the point where supermarket-bought products are on par with price, but we are on par when it comes to restaurant/fast food chains.

Every vegan/vegetarian food that I try from the likes of McDonalds is surprisingly good and costs about the same as the meat equivalent. In London there is also a fast food chain dedicated to vegan food (Neat Burger), it is fairly cheap for what it is and tastes amazing.
That’s still a thing. I know I signed pages and pages of stuff like that requesting a sample of 5 ancient TTL chips from Texas Instruments.

Part of it is liability (tho I like to think they send the most reliable parts on sample orders), but also ITAR.
I really doubt it was the "similarity to meat" that gave you those symptoms (though obviously there is no way for me to verify that, so you have the last word on what happens in your own body).

Anyway - there is a great comment that I saved (https://www.facebook.com/david.zilber/posts/pfbid02CkCY53qDd...)

"Here’s a pesky little chemical called hexanal. If you’ve ever eaten a beyond burger, or any of these plant based products 2.0 (though to be honest, it’s more like they’re on V.46.6.2) and burped 10 or 15 minutes afterwards, and thought to yourself, “Hmmm, wow, ok I definitely just had a meat alternative” you were probably regurgitating this aerosol. Some people think it’s fruity, like green apple, others like mulched grass. At the lab, we had to walk outside to get wafts of it in its pure form, but the minute I opened the cap I knew exactly what this flavour was…. “OLD FRYER OIL, 100%”. It’s metabolized in all manners of organisms through the oxidation of fatty acids, and is… kind of unpleasant?! The point is that while this molecule exists in fava beans, peas, and soy, (the three kings of texturized vegetable protein) when you have a WHOLE FOOD, its there in harmony among all sorts of other volatile compounds, while also being locked away deep inside the beans fibres. It’s the act of processing that concentrated and heightens the presence of off-flavours like these, making the processed foods made from them taste, well, processed. Good with the bad. You can’t concentrate for protein without concentrating other aspects of a plant. There’s always a cost. Now, I will always be a huge proponent for whole foods, made with care, prepared simply. But the realities of grocery store shelves dictate a different truth. People opt for convenience, and sometimes, you’ve got to meet them where they are. My current work at CH has me doggedly hunting down an effect of fermentation I’ve long known intuitively through practice. Certain lactic acid bacteria fermenting their way through legumes don’t just mask, but dismantle this and other problematic molecules. I’m still after the mode of action, but it’s also enough for me to know that age old techniques of fermentation (like soaking ones legumes or grains days in advance of their cooking) can still put to shame the greatest technological “advances” of food science of the past 40 years. Nature is, after all, cleverer than you are. "
You're repeating the same all-or-nothing reasoning. For many people looking for a substitute, it is close enough. For many vegans, it is an option they like. It doesn't to be every single person eating it at every meal for it to be successful.

Other vegetarian protein patty substitutes have done just fine for decades selling to customers who want it. Why does Impossible have to eliminate meat altogether in order to succeed? Why can't they just make money providing an option to a growing customer base?
1. Lower your asking price. The days of 6 figure boot camp grads are over, at least temporarily.

2. Get as much professional experience as possible. There's an entire world outside of the startup/HN crowd where you can thrive in a great career at an enterprise company doing .NET/Java. These are your name brand mega insurance companies or health care organizations that are just trying to get line-of-business apps created for internal use. It's not the brand name cachet as a popular SaaS. These mega corps often don't go out of their way to advertise for new positions, so just checkout linkedin or look at their job boards on their corporate website. These companies often have the large internal development team to pair you with a senior developer and train you up.

3. Bide your time until the market "re-opens". The market will come back, but in the meantime now is the time to build up your CV. If you still are having problems getting a foot in the door, then take on open source projects. Create a side-project. There's nothing worse as a hiring manager seeing a new grad with zero experience asking for $150,000.
I might be missing something, but as I see it here:
by assumption, √2 is rational. Then
k(√2-1) √2 is a positive integer.

This does not mean that k(√2 - 1) belongs to K, with K the set of positive integers {n: n√2 ∈ ℤ}, as k(√2 - 1) is not necessarily an integer.

The proof can be fixed I think with K the set of rational numbers {q: q√2 ∈ ℤ}
I like your idea of visibility a lot, and would like to know more. Are you using a barometric altimeter? I use one hiking, but mainly for dead reckoning using an USGS elevation map. I usually just set my altimeter using those maps.
I always wondered what this was, and presumed it was just a fill-in for commentary videos where the commentator was a bit camera shy, despite being confident enough to post their political / social commentary.

The Grand Theft Auto footage of the car driving down a load of ramps has popped up so many times when I've been mindlessly browsing YouTube, that I never connected the dots that it was being used to reinforce (through the reward/satisfaction element of the video game footage) the commentary alongside it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omphalos_hypothesis

According to the Omphalos hypothesis, God created the redshift in light received from other galaxies to fool humans (beginning in the 20th century, but not before that time) into thinking that the universe is billions of years old. Among the many problems with this hypothesis (including lack of any evidence and lack of reference to the phenomenon in the Bible) is that it would require that God adjusted the shift in exquisitely precise ways for each of the billions of individual galaxies, and did so to deceive humans about the age of the universe in a way that was not detectable by humans until the 20th century.[6]
Much easier to predict the weather underground.
Dark, damp.

Once you build up credibility for being right, you can expand into other more difficult areas. If you keep predicting for the underground, then it will also help keep you correct average up.

1. Principles of Mathematical Analysis by Walter Rudin (baby Rudin) - I'd studied real analysis in the past, but this book is direct and rigorous and provided a good framework to move forward into things like functional analysis in a way that I was not prepared for with other books.

2. Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems by Lawrence Perko - Solidified for me how dynamic systems behaved and were solved. Very much helped my understanding of control theory as well.

3. A Concise Introduction to the Theory of Integration by Daniel Stroock - Helped solidify concepts related to Lebesgue integration and a rigorous formulation of the divergence theorem in high dimensions.

4. Convex Functional Analysis by Kurdilla and Zabarankin - Filled in a lot of random holes missing in my functional analysis knowledge. Provides a rigorous formulation of when an optimization formulation contains an infimum and whether it can be attained. Prior to this point, I often conflated the two.
