What? That's like saying that programming is easy because it's just typing.

It's not about how fast the guy with the monitor writes things! It's about making the right choice when you're designing a system.

When I do programming by myself I go through many designs and refactorings.

If someone already mentioned "hey, don't allocate on the hot path" and "make a closure here instead of copy pasting" and so forth without me having to be concerned about code quality and performance I'd get things done faster. I usually implement a very naive first version. If after typing this up I already have 3-4 people fixing it, then my pull request can have good performance, style, etc. from the get-go and get merged pretty fast instead of constant "can you fix this, then I'll merge it?"

I am excited that more people can learn the crazy world of business compliance and its insanity, especially within the ADA compliance.

What a great incentives lesson:

* You have a business that wants to make sure that employee cars are in tip top condition.

* You have an employee who wants to maintain tip-top condition.

* You have a user who would like to board their service animal

* There exists a certain percentage of service animals that their service animal status is for emotional stress and does not have an animal trained to the level of a blind user. These animals tear up a car, urinate within a car, etc. Witness the "service animals" on airplanes defecating and rerouting a plane. [1] Getting the "service animal" status entitles owners to a lot of benefits [2].

The owner does not want their car damaged by the "service animal" and lose the ability to provide services to future clients. The future clients will give bad ratings for the physical appearance of the car and take the owner's ability to work out of operation. If this issue was brought up by the taxi industry, I want to elect that person to the National Security Council, because this is a brilliant solution to bring down Uber.

I heard it will only affect rankings when searched from a mobile device. This excludes tablets and desktop class devices.
If you want to do it in-house, you can geocode the customer addresses through geocoder (using Google's API) and use SOLR or elastic search to store the latitude and longitude, then do geospatial queries with all the drivers' current coordinates to find the closest driver.

I believe SOLR can handle pretty fast indexing with soft commits, so latency of indexing new records shouldn't be an issue. Not sure about elastic search.

Seriously, how dumb are NYT readers that the NYT feels the need to press "Play" for them, as if the readers wouldn't be moved enough by the content of the article to then view the video? Even BuzzFeed doesn't autoplay its videos (even when the posts are just a video)

You seem to only be able to think from the perspective of central planning. I invite you to stop invoking this earthly "god" and give people a chance.

Can you give me an example of how a town where 90% of the unemployed are black could possibly come into being in the free market where voluntary trade and contracts are enforced by the governments courts (and there are no group-membership based laws)?

I'll give you the beginning. Once upon a time there was a town where all sorts of races lived in (no one bothered to count because these people learned the lessons of Nazis using Dutch records to kill Jews and they didn't want that again). Then you fill in the blanks, then all of a sudden without government interference in the market, 90% of the unemployed are black.

I eagerly await your reply.

I would be developing in containers (I use both Vagrant and Docker) even if I were using Linux rather than OSX for my desktop. Why? Repeatability. I can automate and fully control my development/deployment environment with containers, something I can't do with a desktop machine.

Day-to-day desktops and laptops are snowflake servers, if you use them for server development. Developing on them, without a container layer, is begging for all the problems of snowflake server development and deployment, all the things we've been trying to get away from in the second decade of the 21st century.

If I'm not misunderstanding you, you're calling for a retreat to development practices I don't want to use, development practices that are demonstrably harmful. And if I do understand you, then there's absolutely no benefit to using Linux rather than OSX for my desktop, because I'm containerizing anyway.

So no, not downvoting you. Just showing you why you're wrong.

Not sure it's that cut and dry, nor that the rise of computers could be the cause of such a sharp inflection point. Bretton Woods ended around 1971-73...In fact the real wage of nonsupervisory workers peaked in 1973[1]

"Nuclear" should mean that newly married couples form a new household rather than integrating into the household of the extended family.

Why the nuclear rather than the extended family would be considered important for social stability is anyone's guess. We live in an incredibly atomized society that values personal freedom and autonomy over interdependence and social connection, but that doesn't mean "stability".

Cynical, but not actionable. What will the extra people do? Make it a 200,000 person city? Still not 13 million, still an order of magnitude less expensive.

In fact, this did happen. I looked over this area one year - all the houses were < $100,000 which I could swing. Moved a year later - all the houses were > $100,000 which was harder. I asked the agent what had happened. She said "All those people from California moved in" which was ironic since I was moving from CA myself.
The knee jerk reaction is to defend the rights of the disabled (blind people in this case) but I'd like to ask if there's any fair argument to be made for the drivers at all?

For example, if an Uber driver has dog allergies[1], should blind service dogs override that? Should the blind person's right to mobility trump the driver's discomfort? The discomfort could also continue (shedding, dander) after the blind passenger has left the car. Would it be ok if Uber had an option for driver profiles for drivers to check "I have dog allergies." ?

I'd anticipate the reaction to be "we shouldn't allow Uber to legally offer that option because every driver would check it to keep dogs out of their cars". I'm not sure if that would be true. Wouldn't there be a good percentage of drivers who would love to welcome dogs into their cars? I don't know. I'm not an Uber driver so I don't have any vested interest either way. Just curious what people think.

Also, let's compare the situation to renting apartments or housing. It is illegal to disallow service dogs even if the landlord has a "no pets" policy. The law allows for the disabled have an exemption from such policies. But, the landlords also have an exemption from that exemption if the housing is owner-occupied.[2] In other words, the landlord can't prevent the service dog from living at the rental condo out on the beach but the landlord can prevent the dog from moving into an upstairs loft in his house.

Presumably, most Uber drivers are driving their personal cars and not rotating the driving among a fleet of rental cars from the taxi corporation. Is there a parallel between renting owner-occupied housing and driving a personal car for money? Is there a parallel between Uber-to-personal_car and Airbnb-to-residential-home? Consider that a car is a much more intimate space than a house.

I do not want to ignore the fact that society has changed, and with that, the risks and dangers children face have grown. There was an incident at my home where my youngest daughter was playing outside alone (my mom was inside), and a rather decrepit van paused at the corner, idling. When my mother came outside, the van promptly took off. It might be an overreaction to a single event, but, to me, it was a chilling reminder.

However, CPS agents can definitely overstep their authority, to the point where they will issue threats they can not legally enforce. If you ever deal with CPS, it's best to get a family lawyer, and not allow them into your house unless they are accompanied by a police officer. Even better, record the conversation. No matter what an agent or a supervisor may claim, it is not illegal to record a conversation in your house. Outside of that, be polite and courteous, keeping in mind that many of these people are overworked and dealing with hostile people every day. The point is to ensure your rights are protected.
You are right

However I'm not sure how does the ADA applies, if it's to Uber as a whole or to the individual driver.
Hey, you could be representative of an Olympics sports of your choice.
You can't, for example, partition a space into two rooms when there isn't enough space to do that.

Quite often in modern steel-frame construction the only real constraint is the external walls and the support pillars. You can knock down all the plasterboard walls and turn it into an open-plan office if you want.

You're right about old buildings, brick houses and external walls. I think in the UK the property industry sneaks round the Parker-Morris standards by expressing things only in terms of number of rooms, never total floor area.

They vary; generally, their maintainers mean well but that doesn't necessarily translate to secure code.

Cake lacks security expertise in their core team, unfortunately.

CodeIgniter is a bit conservative. (We must support PHP 5.2!) But then again, so is WordPress. They do listen to researchers.

Laravel is okay, but their lead dev is a bit of an egotistical and hypocritical ass. Recently, found and privately reported a PHP Object Injection vuln to Laravel; he said he didn't consider it a security issue, then when I disclosed publicly flipped his shit on me.

Symfony is great. Fabien has a cool head and responds well to security researchers.

Yii 2 is promising. I'll have to take another look before I call it bulletproof though.

My only experience with Zend has been interacting with their core devs on other media (Twitter, IRC); I haven't found any bugs in its core.

Developers' Lack of Diversity Still an Issue
It's explicity limited to mobile search:

Just to reframe this a little:

Commercial aircraft travel in ground-speed terms, around 350-500 MpH on average [0] (sometimes faster with wind behind them). This travels on a "normal" day up to 313 MpH which is nothing to sniff at.

You should also take into account how long you'll spend at the airport (e.g. security, checking/unchecking bags, etc) and taxiing/queuing on/off of the runway, and how long it takes it get up to altitude (aircraft travel slower while ascending).

Even still an aircraft likely is faster than this. But this could theoretically be cheaper than an aircraft, in particular as fuel costs continue to rise (and after the high building costs have been repaid).

These might be wider deployed if land wasn't already "owned" and using Eminent domain to seize it wasn't so politically unpopular. Plus every road you cross either requires a bridge (expensive), tunnel (more expensive), or crossing (dangerous).

I am allergic to animal dander. I can't be around cats, dogs or rabbits and the like without sneezing, wheezing and coughing.

Why should someone else's disability take precedence over mine?

Yes, I'm sure that some drivers would falsely claim to have an allergy just to keep animals out of their cars but some passengers would also lie about their pets being service animals just to get them in the vehicles.

That was my thought as well. The dates don't quite line up. Computers weren't widespread until the mid to late 1970s when mini-computers started to show up in smaller businesses.

Even then, very small numbers of people were actually working with the computers and the paper office was still in full force. It wasn't until the 1980s that computers were ubiquitous in a way that it clearly affected the vast majority of the population.
A list of great podcasts about Data Science and Machine Learning
That makes sense to me. Sites really should be designed to look good on mobile then adjust them so they also look good and function well (often with additional, lower priority content) on larger displays.

For a few years I have used Bootstrap as a starting point, and as a refresher I am taking the edX Bootstrap class right now. The course emphasises a mobile first approach. In addition to making web dev easier I also really like Bootstrap because it is so common that users instantly know how to navigate and use a site. A nice way to show content.
I used this product while it was called Trak. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to build a service with a delivery component. Their mobile apps work pretty well and drivers need little to no training to use them. The dashboard is very useful when you're at low volumes, and they have a nice API for automating things when the time comes.

My only complaint is a driver cannot be "active" on more than one order at once. That is, if a driver is making a delivery to two people from one origin (like a restaurant), only the first customer will receive the tracking link and live updates. The second customer will receive it after the first delivery is complete, but in a densely populated area, there is little value to knowing where your order is when it is already almost to you.

That's a pretty small complaint that they'll probably address in the future if it is worthwhile, so I wouldn't let that deter you if you're using a crappy homegrown management system and want something better.
This is exactly how I feel about processed nutrition. We don't yet know what we don't know, so we think we have it all figured out. This is true for medicine as well, but the difference is we already have a solution that works in whole, unprocessed foods.

The article title and the contents don't match up. If you're interested in how technology is and will be replacing most jobs we have now see "Humans Need Not Apply" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Pq-S557XQU

I believe that we will need to make some structure that allows for people to work who want to earn more, and still support a considerable number of people who just aren't employable in the future. There don't have to be just winners and losers like this article posits, it isn't us versus them, and technology shouldn't be vilified.
True.

Though: we speculate that it may eventually come to affect all searches - as mobile-friendliness becomes more pervasive (and hence as non-mobile-friendliness becomes an outlier), we anticipate that they may prefer a good mobile-friendly result to an equivalent non-mobile friendly result even on the desktop.

The main user-centric argument for this is the increasing amount of multi-screening (i.e. returning to the same page on multiple devices) as well as sharing a link via email or social (where the recipient is highly-likely to open it on mobile at least some of the time).
Trains still have an "end of the line." So, yes, you could if you were going fast enough.

>Existing government is sub-optimal and competition tends to increase quality.

Government is not a product or service. It doesn't follow market rules. Heck, who enforces market norms when at anytime you can send out warships and conquer everyone?

If anything, we have way many small governments that often must bow down to the regional power and become de facto client states with limited autonomy and almost no ability to fight off the regional power if it thinks you've offended it in any way. Ukraine is getting a lesson in how little autonomy they have when they're so close to an aggressive regional power. Just because you are recognized as a country doesn't mean you enjoy the autonomy a country should. Smaller nations are just going to be under the thumb more than larger nations who can put up a proper military deterrent.
I think a more useful example would be adding further information from the users profile to a leaderboard.
