The dirty secret of perceived intelligence is that, in practice, mental acuity (or however you want to characterize IQ) matters less than passion for the subject matter. It doesn't matter how smart you are if you aren't motivated to immerse yourself in the subject matter. Of course, there's no reason a single person can't have both, but on balance I'll take a passionate person with moderate intelligence over an intelligent person with moderate motivation.
Location: Canada

Remote: Only

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Various optimization tools (CPLEX, Gurobi, OR-Tools, etc.), Python, C++, Bash, Linux, and others

Résumé/CV: https://www.pedtsr.ca/work.html

Email: See CV

I have a PhD in operations research---essentially, I solve optimization problems. You can give me a real-world problem and I can translate it into a mathematical model that can be solved (often optimally) via integer programming, constraint programming, or other methods. I'm the father of four young children, so I'm looking for flexible/remote part-time work, and/or contract work. I can work up to around 20-30ish hours per week.

I'm currently working on a column generation-based daily fantasy sports (DFS) solver as a personal project. Taking as input the predictions/requirements of the user, this solver can generate optimal lineups for multi-entry tourneys. It is, as far as I am aware, the only DFS solver that can generate provably optimal sets of lineups for multi-entry DFS tourneys.

It seems correctly caveated; it is really hard to measure intelligence. People could have different skill sets and talents, some of which test better or work better in an academic setting. It isn’t obvious how much teaching experience could tell out about some hypothetical intelligence-horsepower or something like that.

Indeed. It is surprising how often I've been chastised for saying that some people are smarter than others. Relatedly I believe that some people are just incapable of learning, for example, college algebra. As an extreme example can a mentally disabled person learn college algebra?
Right. but things they have in common are questionable cost/benefit, and, undoubtedly, unintended consequences.

It also is not a better way to solve the problem. Now someone has to replace the batteries of the "beacon" or remember to charge it? How are they going to remember? Why not just have that same person remember to check that the source is secured properly?

Where to apply: send your resume and cover letter to careers@spacerake.net
> always write a good cover letter.

The importance of this can't be overstated. This is just my opinion based on years of interviewing and hiring devs, but...

The resume tells you the "what". What is the candidate's experience, what is their skillset, etc. Resumes get a once-over, mostly to see if the candidate is in the ballpark for the position.

The cover letter tells you the "why". Why should I hire this candidate over the others? Why does the candidate want to work here? etc.

The cover letter is the more important of the two. Assuming a candidate has the technical skills required, the things an interviewer really wants to know are softer: will they fit in with the team? Will they be happy in this role? And so forth. This is what the cover letter should be talking about.
There are lots of birds that can have 100 offspring in a lifetime. Wild ducks lay ~12 eggs per year, and live 10 years. Commercial ducks can do 20x that.

Obviously, all those will be siblings, so your chance of getting much of another generation is low.

Thinking about when I'm on stage, I think it's, in part, a way to calm the motion of your hands without having your arms at your sides which can feel unnatural and make you look stiff.
I don't know that any of my opinions are particularly refreshing, but I'm happy to share them anyway. It's certainly never stopped me in the past ;-).

All current reactor designs, even the most recently approved ones, are bespoke. Incredibly expensive, slow to build, relying on a lot of one-off manufacturing and a dwindling number of experts in the technology. We could overbuild wind & solar on breathtaking scales and still spend a good bit less. I suspect we will find an energy storage solution for solar (EVs is a reasonably good bet IMO) before we'll figure out how to make economical nuclear a reality.

I don't worry much about catastrophe. The worst ones we have seen so far were practically non-events compared to the ongoing damage we do just with coal alone. Both of the big disastrous nuclear events have straightforward engineering solutions (and in the case of the first, we already have done that engineering). Aside from it being a bit of an eyesore, I'd happily live in close proximity to a current generation nuclear plant.

I think we'd need to see a fundamental shift in our approach to nuclear before we could make it viable. Maybe something like shifting to smaller floating reactors that we could churn out in quantity. I doubt we could make it directly cost competitive with wind & solar, but maybe we could find a way to make it valuable enough to keep as an alternative.

We'd also need a cultural shift, of course -- people already fear nuclear power plants and have forced them to close prematurely as a result. That's a non-trivial problem, and I don't have a solution for that. Humans aren't rational, even if we like to pretend otherwise.
> Why will academic R&D begin falling below the rate of inflation?

Debt-to-GDP ratios and the cost of servicing existing debt together mean that there are difficult budgeting decisions on the horizon for many western governments. Academic R&D just doesn't have the constituency needed to save it from cuts.

I will be a bit astounded if NSF/NIH don't take nominal cuts during the debt ceiling negotiations, and they certainly won't get budget increases to keep up with inflation. Even defense spending, a massive sacred cow, might take a cut. There is just no way that base closures happen without DARPA et al. also taking it on the chin.

There may be one-time infusions into critical sectors here and there (CHIPS, probably energy, etc) and the STEM fields may benefit from a systematic defunding of humanities departments in certain states, but it's not enough to make up for secular headwinds.

The only saving grace for budgets might be if universities could create and capture the value that their R&D spend generates. But most research doesn't provide any value to society, and for the research that does capturing that value is often harder than creating the value in the first place. And even in that case, the change in management culture and workforce dynamics mean that the "relaxed tenured professor" is quickly going extinct.

The only thing academic hustle will get you in the 2030s and 2040s is a relatively low-paying job that requires even more hustle.

,,I have no expertise on this topic but it seems to me that some people are truly smarter than others''

As an autistic person I agree with this, but it comes at a huge cost of much worse understanding of facial expressions of people and much less adaptability to change.

Also one more big disadvantage is that most people can't distinguish between a smart person and an a$$hole (Dr House is a good example of a person focused on saving lifes, but still people think he's an a@@hole... Elon Musk is an even more controversial example)

Shower thoughts: academia should employ part time project managers paid by the university. PIs can do less administrative work. Grad students can feel less lost. Time can be used efficiently. People will overwork less.

Oh so that makes censorship ok? Bigotry is fine too, it’s all in the name of Islam, right?

Why didn’t you say so, that obviously activates the “free from all consequences” card. /s

>You can't act or believe as if humans can or should have no impact on the environment without entertaining humanity's gradual demise as part of the process of "saving the earth" when all other known options are exhausted.

IMO this particular aspect of modern environmentalism is a religious root on a secular tree.

Many religions imply that man isn't natural, that there's the nature world and that we are above it/not part of it. That core belief carries over into secular society/people even though they no longer believe the system of thought that lead to that conclusion.

I assert that man is in fact natural not supernatural, and that the changes man makes to the world as as natural of a process a trees overgrowing a grassland to make a forest or an ocean eroding away an island.
The book The Genetic Lottery: Why DNA Matters for Social Equality by Kathryn Paige Harden does. It’s written by a progressive for progressives. It’s not logically sound and admits to taking such a position on faith in the service of being anti-racist.
>in fact in some cases it could be harmful if someone who doesn't know the material already believes the nonsense it spits out

I get what you mean, but that's also kind of silly. First, almost no one who is not in the field is going to be even asking it the kind of questions you are. Second, even if they do and try to use that as reasoning etc.. well, then that moron would basically find any type of source (i.e., random youtube video) to prove their "point".

So I honestly think the "harmful" argument is completely out the window. We already opened that pandoras box years ago with basically every piece of human knowledge online in so many places and people making videos on almost everything with all sorts of varying views.

People say this about the coding aspect as well "oh this is going to hurt the world because people will be just asking for code and it will be wrong!" Ok.. but it pretty much sounds like they were just going to do that anyway.

Let's focus on the positives of this infant technology that is still insanely impressive. We are just seeing the beginning, right?
USGS has a much better site for that.

The only way to undo the culture of overwork for academic professors, is to increase bottleneck somewhere upstream (e.g. cut the number of PhD students in half). Any time you have a situation where 300 people are applying for the same job (as is common for ladder rank professorships at research universities), the people who end up getting those jobs will inevitably have been overworked. Imagine if less than 10% of people who went to med school ended up landing a job as a physician - that's basically the situation with professorships.
They must be recycling enough of it to recover their £30. They may dump the unrecyclable parts into the ocean, but nobody doubts there are unrecyclable things mixed in with it. It can't be 100% recycled.
What you say true. However, this particular organization has a well documented history of committee without action.
Assuming that by Apache Oak you mean the Oak subproject of Apache Jackrabbit ( https://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/ ), why would you consider it abandoned? Release 1.48.0 came out last week and it's been seeing steady activity throught the last years - https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-oak/ .

I am a committer and PMC member in the project, so I may be biased.
Academic institutions are loaded up with people who are skilled at political manipulation and bureaucratic infighting, and who often have little real interest in their supposed field of research. For these types it's basically a game of getting in with the reviewers of grant proposals, rubbing elbows at scientific conferences, hiring technicians and postdocs and maybe some pHD students to generate a steady stream of papers, cozying up to university administration, attending dinners and so on.

It's gotten even worse since the corporations started getting exclusive licenses to university patents, now there's all the secrecy in those fields as well as the PIs start salivating about the possibility of getting a small percentage of the royalties on those patents.

Trofim Lysenko would have recognized the system, it's similar to the one he ran in the Soviet Union for decades.
What makes you think it's scanning, and not e.g. preloading items from disk cache into RAM? Maybe run it under strace and see what it's accessing?

I am a software engineer transitioning from an aerospace engineering career with over five years of designing
solutions in the aerospace industry. Over the last two years, I've built software using multiple languages and
technologies including Ruby, JavaScript/Node.js, Typescript, React, Go, PostgreSQL, Docker, and AWS. Most
recently, I built a geographically distributed load testing service, Constellation (https://constellation-load-testing.github.io/).
What is their opinion about being unable to go supersonic for more than short bursts currently classified as "will not fix"? [1]

A hint they got from the world of software development clearly... :-)

"...At extremely high altitudes, the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps’ versions of the F-35 jet can only fly at supersonic speeds for short bursts of time before there is a risk of structural damage and loss of stealth capability, a problem that may make it impossible for the Navy’s F-35C to conduct supersonic intercepts...

The Defense Department does not intend to field a fix for the problem, which influences not only the F-35’s airframe and the low-observable coating that keeps it stealthy, but also the myriad antennas located on the back of the plane that are currently vulnerable to damage, according to documents exclusively obtained by Defense News...

...The F-35 Joint Program Office has classified the issues for the "B" and "C" models as separate category 1 deficiencies, indicating in one document that the problem presents a challenge to accomplishing one of the key missions of the fighter jet..."

Greybeard storytime:

In the middle of my 17 years working remotely at a tech megacorp, I moved to a product manager role from a custom engineering manager. A couple of years in to my PM role I was feeling stagnant in my career so I purposefully got a headshot done wearing a sport coat and tie to replace my younger me ponytail headshot on our intranet directory.

The first change I noticed was a major difference in the respect and deference I received on calls. Over the next couple of years, I was promoted twice and was offered several lateral move opportunities.

Obviously, some of this change was due to my intentionality, but I attribute the headshot very highly.

Some important factors: I worked with a large number of salespeople in a highly matrixed salesforce. I worked on large global teams and people from some geos were more obvious in their deference. I am of above average attractiveness.
Emergence of a stochastic resonance in machine learning

Game dev is large part C++ exclusive because of legacy (the widely used engines were started long before Rust existed), so does one really have a choice if the goal is learning game dev? In the end, you learn what you need to accomplish your goal, even if you'd prefer other tools.
I dislike it greatly and accumulated 200k+ in extra student debt.

I am trying to switch back to software engineering now.
> > FAANG salary? Red flag.

> Completely not my experience.

Whether more than a little experience at a FAANG company helps or hurts you depends entirely on which companies you're applying to. With many, it really is a red flag. With others, it's almost a guarantee that you're going to round 2.
I don't know why you are down voted. I've been accused of racism for saying that some people are smarter than others. I guess it is a given for some people that a person's worthiness is tied to their intelligence. I hold no such view but I guess people assume that since I think some are smarter than others then there must be a racial component to said belief.

I would never say to colleagues at my university that I hold the belief that some people have more intellectual talent than others. Amongst certain vocal subgroups of academia an unassailable core belief they hold is that all people are equal in intellectual abilities and that only external factors contribute to any divergence in perceived intellectual talent or in knowledge.
It’s arguably the biggest development in tech in recent history. How can you expect people not talk about it until it becomes background noise?
