There are many good programmers available, who could quickly learn Go, who would work for a fraction of that. Look for someone who knows how to program (in any language), who knows the problem space you're in, and they will be able to learn how to adapt to Go fairly quickly. 400k is not at all the market rate.

Whenever I've made notes like this, it's never been useful to my future self nor to anyone else.

The only use I've had of this kind of documentation is that the process of writing it, made me understand it better. Basically write-only documentation.

I think you're onto something. I don't speak Czech but I've been there a number of times and I know people who live there.

When Hašek wrote Švejk the Czechs were surrounded and influenced by vastly different nations—the crumbling remnants of the Austro-Hungarian Empire—which they were part of—the Russian Empire and Germany—both of which were in chaos after WWI. Even today they're still surrounded but at least now they're an independent nation with their own language so perhaps it's not surprising what comes out of them is quite unique.

It's quite some years since I saw Closely Watched Trains with English subtitles and it had a huge impact on me. It's one of those films that one cannot get out of one's mind for days. In its own understated way it's a great film and it's not surprising that it was a Czech production. Its ending upset me greatly because whilst its story was fiction, it reminded me of similar tragic scenarios that were played out for real many times during WWII (it seems to me one of the purposes of the film was to remind us of the fact).

BTW, when I first went to Czechoslovakia it was still under communist rule and the only practical (easiest) way to get from Vienna to Prague was by train from Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof and Emperor Franz Joseph Railway line. For some reason seeming known to the communists we had to use this single track line instead of the more modern dual track line via Brüno. I mention it because the Franz Joseph Railway was a once-in-a-lifetime experience to travel on, the track was in such terrible condition that one thought the train would derail any moment and the train only did about 30km/h max. After Communism fell the track via Brüno was opened up and although a much longer route the trip only took half as long.
It looked to me like there was some major oscillations shortly before the engines relit though.

I feel like you are cherry picking extremely high-profile projects that you were personally not involved in, so

(1) sometimes estimations do end up wrong and mistakes can happen, so being able to pick any example and choosing the ones that failed is disingenuous

(2) picking someone else’s projects means you have absolutely no insight into the process. sometimes I will very intentionally under- or over-estimate a deadline for political - or really practical - reasons and someone on the outside will think I messed up. the projects you picked are extremely high profile and have to contend with a lot of political forces and are probably the worst examples to pick

> Wow, that doesn't jive with my personal experiences or what I've ever read about sociopathy. It sounds more like you're describing folks on the autism spectrum.

The amount of undue hate that people on the spectrum get for being sociopaths or narcissist is awful. You are correct that they may misunderstand or "not get" social situations. You are incorrect in that they don't care / can't feel the emotion of a situation. Often they are overwhelmed by this and it's what makes "dealing" (passing as NT) difficult.

The amount of times I have had people socially manipulate situations against me is difficult to count. Any time you speak up about this you are the "crazy" one. These have mostly been situations where sociopaths are abusing me for the entertainment / social benefit reason.

They DO NOT CARE about the pain / suffering they cause. This has been a source of extreme stress, pain and suffering in my life. YMMV obviously but the amount of time I have to spend explaining this to people is disheartening. It's like nobody wants to believe that people can be so awful... and this belief can hand wave away any bad behavior being described.

> because even if you have little empathy, behaving like a creepy scumbag is generally not going to be beneficial in the long run.

I think you significantly underestimate the benefit to risk ratio. There are a lot more terrible, manipulative, sadistic people out there than "kind but misunderstood" people. The averages are not in our favor.

Unfortunately in a lot of cases, this means they already know who they want to hire, but they're legally required to post the position publicly. Making the requirements for the position match the person they want to hire, allows them to screen out everyone else.

That egregious UI was specifically Honda's (see the last paragraph I quoted), but a lot of automakers are doing shady stuff:

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/11/technology/carmakers-driv...:

> General Motors is not the only automaker sharing driving behavior. Kia, Subaru and Mitsubishi also contribute to the LexisNexis “Telematics Exchange,” a “portal for sharing consumer-approved connected car data with insurers.” As of 2022, the exchange, according to a LexisNexis news release, has “real-world driving behavior” collected “from over 10 million vehicles.”

> Verisk also claims to have access to data from millions of vehicles and partnerships with major automakers, including Ford, Honda and Hyundai.

> ...

> The other automakers all have optional driver-coaching features in their apps — Kia, Mitsubishi and Hyundai have “Driving Score,” while Honda and Acura have “Driver Feedback” — that, when turned on, collect information about people’s mileage, speed, braking and acceleration that is then shared with LexisNexis or Verisk, the companies said in response to questions from The New York Times.

> But that would not be evident or obvious to drivers using these features. In fact, before a Honda owner activates Driver Feedback, a screen titled “Respect for your Privacy” assures drivers that “your data will never be shared without your consent.” But it is shared — with Verisk, a fact disclosed in a more than 2,000-word “terms and conditions” screen that a driver needs to click “accept” on. (Honda does mention Verisk in an FAQ on its website and Kia highlights its relationship with LexisNexis Risk Solutions on its website. A Kia spokesman said LexisNexis can’t share driving score data of Kia participants with insurers without additional consent.)
Impressive. It tackles a similar problem to what I'm addressing. Thanks for sharing!
For 1:
I guess I'm on the clear, because the affirmation "obviously, the majority are successful" was made without checking the exact numbers.
On my side, it's just a guess, but based on the fact that there are tons of universities, tons of events, and tons of people disagreeing with these events, I would say it is very reasonable to expect that if the majority was successful, the amount would be overwhelming.

> How come? If I go to a town square to speak and I get lynched, am I the one in power because I organized my speech?

But people don't just "show up" to universities and, bam, they can jump on stage and do an event.
The events are always vetted by the people in charge. The events and their contents are reviewed and agreed. If it was not the case, how do you explain that companies don't go there to do a "speech" that happens to promote their product, or that extremists communities cannot easily go there and do their sermon, or that politicians cannot just go there and do their campaigning?

How do you judge "worst offender"? As I've said, it's very tricky, especially if the harassment from the "right" has become the norm. Or worst, when the harassment from the "left" is partially organised by the "right" (https://observer.com/2017/02/i-helped-create-the-milo-trolli...)

But does it even matter to the initial argument? Even if the "right" was the worst offender, the metric used in the article is still flawed.

And even if the "left" is the worst offender, if there is 95% of "right-wing" events cancelled and 5% of "left-wing" events cancelled, then, the presence of 5% is the demonstration that the left-wing is not in power (otherwise, it would be 0%).

More realistically, left-wing is the worst offender because they are the one using the protest tool more, while the people in power are not left-wing, they are just trying to ease the protest, but would act the same way if it was a right-wing demand.
There seems to be a big miss here on the purpose of the cameras. Are they there as security cameras to help monitor the facility, or are they there to act as an audit trail for manufacturing?

Presumably the documentation processes in place (whether Boeing followed them or not) are meant to handle the manufacturing accountability need. That leaves the security cameras as just that, security cameras.

I can't get mad at a local convenience store for not retaining footage from last week or last month when 24 hours of retention fits their needs. Why should anyone complain that Boeing's security footage region doesn't meet the requirements for a use that they were never meant to handle?

Prices are relative. Not many folks in the US are buying $50 smartphones. Sure, you can buy a smart phone that is $50, but it sure is a crappy smartphone, at least in the US. We're talking about US market here, obviously.

Obviously there's markets that need to be serviced by super cheap phones... but it's a much more brutal market to compete in.

You also need to sell literally 20x the amount of $50 phones as you do a $1000 phone to make the same amount of money (assuming your margins are the same... which they likely are not). Nobody really wants the super low end budget segment, the numbers are just bad.

Technically it's a transatmospheric orbit. That is, an orbit such that it'd stay up there if the atmosphere were not present. The difference between this and full orbit is just a few seconds longer burn, so it's a difference with little meaning in terms of proving out the ability to reach orbit.
The authors seem too rosy on China's economy.
While as main stream media are too hostile.
It's the same inside China. CCP always trumpeting China's inevitable rise and growth.
And most ordinary 9-5 workers are complaining non-stop about the abysmal economy situation.

China is just too large to fit in any existing theory or perspective. I just don't see any one who can reasonably summarize China's situation at all. China remains in drastic changes. It's absolute amazing that CCP maintained the stability and growing the country throughout so many obstacles and disasters.

History would eventually put China to the appropriate verdict. I would bet people would fine the verdict bland, probably just a mix of all these dramatic opinions people are tirelessly evangelize right now.

Agree on "being unemployed does not look great", but senior, financially secure folks that chose to take a year off will likely have "developing tools to deploy X at Y at a stealth startup" or some such on their resume instead. Plus, IME "being umeployed is not great" applies just to chances of getting to the first technical interview. After that, it is just interview-based.

Bottom line: I am not shedding any tears for most senior engineering folks who worked through one of the most favorable decades for software engineers. Yes, changing is uncomfortable, but they should have options that are way better than a free soup kitchen. My 2c.

> if a single week of overtime will help you meet a critical deadline

In my experience, every unit of overtime is followed by a larger unit of "undertime" where the team (usually subconsciously) goes through a period of low productivity. The ratio is often as high or higher than 1:2, so a week of overtime can result in two weeks of undertime.

I present this as a fact when project sponsors request that the team work OT so that they're aware that they're trading future productivity at a loss for productivity today.
Transfer internally between tanks in the bottom and top of the ship. This was one of the planned tests, I have not heard whether it was accomplished though.
