If I read that correctly there is little support for the 'age' component of adulthood and a lot of support for 'required to act independently without a safety net'. It might explain why people who were 16 in the 19th century were considered ready to kick out into the "real" world.

In my own experience I did a couple of internships in my high school summers which required that I live away from home, plan all my own meals, budget my expenses, manage my housing situation, and track everything required to succeed in my internship. I had some really eye opening experiences (like having my motorcycle be in the shop and catching the bus to work but getting on the wrong direction and ending at the depot far from work.) That experience helped me "grow up" in many ways, and it was one of the reasons when I had kids my wife and I gave them responsibility as soon as we thought they could take it, so from age 10 on for example they did all of their own laundry. At 12 they were called on to cook a meal for the family from time to time, Etc. If nothing else that helped them be more functional when they got to college.
Rent-seeking for the ones holding the licenses currently. Prevent market disruption as well.
Exactly. And I feel it's expanding rather than shrinking.
Of course it's both.

In many of these cases, the public has a strong enough interest to justify licensing requirements. E.g., it would be impractical to eliminate CDLs, licensing for food prep/barbers, etc.

Once these licensing requirements exist, it's easier to justify increasing requirements as a way of increasing the barrier to entry.

It would be nice if they offered certificates for S/MIME signing + encryption too.

Most states require food prep employees to carry some form of food safety certification.

Any additional checks are above and beyond this and other basic requirements.

Of course, there's a good reason that both exist in food prep. Downgrading a restaurant only after the typhoid outbreak isn't really serving the best interest of the public. And continuous monitoring/enforcement is too expensive.

Although not directly related to the article, in some fields you just need to work under someone that has a contractors license. Many plumbers, electricians, builders, etc, aren't licensed, but they are employed by someone that is, and the owner of the company signs off on their work saying it is acceptable.
I'm thinking we have very different ideas of what a Senior Engineer does. Or how capable a dev team can be when given a project, without micromanagement from a PO about which buttons go where. And whether its reasonable to cut a big project up into hash and try to (appear to) complete something useful to a customer every 2 weeks.

You're only 25 years old. Even if you spent 5 years at your ML job, you'd only be 30. Contrary to popular belief, your life isn't over at 30! If you still have the desire to teach overseas then, it's not going to be too late. And by then, you'd probably be in a stronger position financially to make that switch.

Think about the reverse situation. You go overseas, and you realize things are not as rosy as you'd hope. What are your options then? Because I can tell you from first-hand experience, moving to another country is a lot costlier than you'd think. Especially to a country where you don't even speak the language.

If you want to take a big risk at life, that's great. Don't let a random Internet stranger stop you. Please just make sure the odds are stacked in your favour.
Reliability, determinism, and security vulnerabilities are a good start for the purchaser. For the reviewer, we already know what methods [1] historically improved the assurance of software. Every method they added, the more bugs they found. That most proprietary and FOSS software use little rigor is why they're insecure. Only a few proprietary or academic offerings, not community driven, had the rigor for the B3/A1/EAL6/EAL7 process. I give examples here [2] for those that want to see the difference in software lifecycle.

Can you name one FOSS product designed like that? Where every state, both success and failure, is known via design along with covert channels and source-to-object code correspondence? I've never seen it. Although, it has happened for a number of proprietary products whose claims were evaluated by NSA & other professional reviewers for years straight without serious flaws found. So, for high security, the "proprietary niche" that does that has beaten FOSS by far and mainstream FOSS is comparable to mainstream proprietary in quality (i.e. priorities of provider matters most).

FOSS can potentially outdo proprietary in highly assured systems given they have free labor. In practice, they do whatever they feel like doing and so far that's not using the best software/systems engineering practices available. So, I don't trust FOSS any more than proprietary except in one area: less risk of obvious subversion if I verified transport of the source and compiled it myself. Usually plenty of vulnerabilities anyway, though. Would love to see more high assurance efforts in FOSS.

Doing minimal safety training seems reasonable, I think. If it cost $200 to enter a profession, that wouldn't be so bad.

No.

I actually pay for the NYTimes. They provide a real value to me, but not in their webpage

Their value to me comes in their mobile app. I like to read their articles there, and they make me feel good. For example, they hit your app with "Good morning, here's what you need to know" followed by a daily briefing. the daily briefing is worth it alone, but having that extra part, as lame as it sounds, makes me feel good.
So will the auto tag and transfer old videos with gaming content to the new site? Will uploading gameplay content on regular YT be prohibited than?

I would prefer if YT stay one entity and Google should just improve their "Search" on Youtube! It's weird that the search on Google in the video tab is a lot better than the search on Youtube directly. Youtube search functionality hasn't been improved since 2005 or so.
Funny. The Greek economy has been criticized by many economic commentators for also having this kind of "closed-shop" paradigm. Not sure what their percentage is in comparison to the U.S.
This is just the age-old tension between marketing design standards and product design standards. Apple's marketing materials have all used Myriad Pro since the early 2000s (though Apple only recently got around to using a webfont on apple.com), and thus the announcement is produced according to those standards.

San Francisco is a UI type family for use in products. Just as Apple has never preferred Lucida Grande or Helvetica for marketing (only using either on the web in the pre-webfont era), this announcement doesn't get set in San Francisco. If Apple has a webfont version of it at all, the only place it would get used is on icloud.com, which is an actual web-based product UI.

All that said, this announcement could do with a bit more of the typeface on display than the paltry two letters seen here.
Right. Licensing these professions is completely reasonable. But years of training and extortionate costs to acquire a license is nowhere near reasonable.

Your statement validates his statement. Just because R-based development teams are in number, does not make quality, and vice versa: APL or J programmers may be lower in numbers, but you may be getting better quality.
The catapult was invented, and then forgotten, and had to be re-invented. In today's age with the internet, and the relatively short span of computer science, I must say I agree that the short-sightedness seems worse.
I play with APL/J and I like Julia and Haskell. To me J (APL) are close to the succinctness and expressiveness of mathematical formula, and they work naturally with arrays, no batteries needed.
I am not going to address many of your questions because the answers are obvious if you honestly think about them (an honest reading of the rhetoric should supply all the necessary clues); also, I'm not familiar with the details (though it's still obvious what's going on). I do, however, want to provide some historical background about hate groups in response to:

> Then why were these 'hate groups' active before the allegations were made, if they all truly only target people for "who they are" and not "what they do"?

(I assume you meant "weren't", right?) Well, history teaches us that oftentimes there's a lot of pent-up anger in people that only rises to the surface -- in the form of mob violence -- in response to a trigger, which takes the form of an accusation of some illicit action taken by the mob's victims. For example, many pogroms against Jews were incited by some incident[1][2] (usually fabricated, sometimes partly true, sometimes blown out of proportion). Same goes for lynch mobs in the US. That's just how mob violence works.

Also -- and this is very obvious, but I think I'll be amiss if I don't explain this point, you say:

> while conveniently ignoring the harassment other GG members receive from anti-GG ones?

You imply symmetry where there is none. In civilized society, it's perfectly acceptable to harass members of hate groups. In fact, it's a civic duty to do so. The KKK and the SPLC are not two equal-but-opposing sides. The former is a hate group while the latter isn't. When one harasses the other it's mob violence; if it's the other way around it's common sense.

Also, the "harassment" against members of the hate group (although, again, I'm not familiar with the details of this seventh-grade kerfuffle) is often just calling them out for what they are. While clearly moronic villains, unlike in comic books, they don't appreciate and accept their villainy because they're morons. In their delusions they are misunderstood mavericks, and calling them out for the idiot brutes that they are makes them feel harassed, when, in fact, it's just that their behavior has no place in sane human society.

And before you cry out, "I'm just a nonconformist with unpopular opinions, and the majority calls me a hate group because their PC minds can't stand original thought" let me give you a little advice. If you have two sparring groups, it's quite easy to tell which is the hate group baddies and who are the goodies -- and it has nothing to do with the majority. If one group has too many people you wouldn't want your daughter to date -- that's the hate group[3]. And if many sane people tell you you're part of a hate group, before arguing with them, try to think very hard if they may be right, because they probably are. Another tell: if a group refers to social justice as a negative -- they're the bad guys.

I understand your scepticism, I shared it. What changed it for me was prototyping electronics.[1] If you're prototyping something there are things you use to hold them together, but when you look at something like the LMB catalog [2] there are a bunch of boxes of certain shapes with certain properties, and mixes of those properties to try and maximize the chance they will have a box that is useful to you. Often you can get close, but it is to expensive for any distributor to stock their whole line so when you found your enclosure you had to order it and it had to come from the factory. Change the project so it doesn't fit any more and order the next bigger box, wait, and move forward.

ABS though is reasonably strong (and it is used in a lot of plastic cases) so if you can "print" the enclosure you just do. After postage its about the same cost, and from a time basis it is a lot cheaper. My daughter built a yardage counter out of an arduino, a hall effect sensor, an LCD display, and a printed "wheel" which carries the yarn and rotates carrying inside a small magnet that passes the hall effect sensor. All of the case work is custom and can be printed.

I wanted a 'universal' mount to hold various small eval/demo boards. The base is defined and the board holders are custom printed (basically a flat sheet with posts that can be drilled and tapped in various places) so every board just drops into the holder. Easy sauce.

Prior to printing things I have a Sherline Mill and Lathe. Great for a lot of materials and you can make things the old fashioned way by grinding off the stuff you don't need, but aluminum is expensive (even at scrap prices) when you need a bigger block that mostly is going to become chips. So while I love the VESA 200 -> 100 mount adapter I machined out of a 1/2" thick piece of aluminium, you can do it in structured ABS for less money and less time. And a lot less waste. (That said I'd love an affordable laser sintering system).

So kind of like programming, its neat and all but what ever and then suddenly it clicks into your brain where solutions to problems come from and you start seeing all sorts of things you can do now that you didn't think was possible.

I definitely appreciate the input. After all, thats what I came here for. As for moving expenses, the sort of teaching jobs I'm looking at usually come with compensation specifically for moving. And I've also studied the language for about a year and a half, so although I'm a bit rusty right now, I'm pretty sure I could get some pretty simplistic communication done, even if I didn't decide to go back to studying it full-force as I almost certainly would.

My concern with waiting is that I will be a different person then, and I'll be less able to experience it in the way that I want to. That is, if I am even able to go. For example, if I am in a relationship at that point, most people dont take well to their partner up and telling them that they want to go live on the other side of the world for a year or two.

All that said, I really am taking all of this advice to heart. I'm just arguing my side because well....I cant get to intimately know the strengths and weaknesses of both sides unless theres a lively debate. I hope you know what I mean. I appreciate the input.
Electronics Designers: Export to OrCAD and Allegro Now Available on SnapEDA
You are correct, the licenses arise because they aim to protect people. However, the intentions need to be separated from the reality.

Three useful questions to ask when situations like this arise are:
- As opposed to what?
- At what cost?
- Is there any evidence?

Do the regulations actually protect both sides of the agreement?
How reliable is MTurk for an IQ test? I presume the respondents don't put in that much effort on these quizzes.
Interesting and cool.
It's almost like a magic trick, particularly in the sense that an almost unbelievable result has been achieved through putting in a serious amount of effort.
It's not just a gimmick, though-- projects like this demonstrate the steady creep of progress on seemingly unsolvable problems[1].
But of course, there's thousands of such problems out there, with millions of potential customers ready to make whoever solves one a billionaire, so even if "true" AI fails to appear, odds are good we'll make a fair approximation for specific applications.

One thing that popped out at me, however, was the distribution of the human scores: monotonically increasing with age, which was somewhat odd.
Shouldn't it be more or less normally distributed?

1. I wouldn't have thought to make a serious attempt towards beating a verbal comprehension test with deep learning; the possibility of succeeding would've seemed tiny in compared to the work. Similar to the notion that trying to prove the Riemann Hypothesis is hard to think of as a real pursuit, at best it's like a quixotic hobby.
If it is a really critical system, the proper way would be a T1 circuit between the two buildings. The circuit would only go from one building to the local telephone office, back to the other office. They tend to be pretty reliable, but expensive. You could then run a lan over this.
> Most of these licenses arise because the people practicing them wind up hurting, or even killing people.

From the article: "In fact, across all states, interior designers, barbers, cosmetologists, and manicurists all face greater average licensing requirements than do EMTs".
My families tradition is to kick the kids out at the legal age with nothing but promise of a roof and food if they need it. Grandfather grew up in poverty and is now quite rich, none of trickled to my Dad. The logic being if you have a safe place to sleep and eat, you can do whatever you set your mind to. Dad started his own business, and instead of giving him money, my Grandfather guided him and introduced him to people. Same with my father now. I left home at 16.

I haven't gotten a cent from my parents and it has taught me a lot at a very young age. Meanwhile most of my friends are completely dependant and have adopted a 'the man/system is out to get you' mentality because they didn't get their dream jobs fresh out of school.

How do you teach people to hustle? Cut the life line?

But based on the risk factors in their plan, not based on the scale of one small market segment they're aiming for.

Dos and Don't S for Charts and Graphs
I believe that in many organizations, this premise is flat-out wrong. We absolutely need designers who can code - and the kind of "production-ready code" that the author mentions is not the same code that I expect designers to write. It's true that I might not trust someone who is a designer first and developer second with writing a front-end framework. But wiring up a static HTML page with some Angular directives, or even just some jQuery? I feel like to place that beyond the capability of a designer is incorrect, if not plainly insulting. Design itself is not a simple art, and anyone who can get good enough at it to be worth hiring as a designer is certainly capable of learning the bare minimum necessary to be self-sufficient on the front-end.

Designers who cannot code come with lots of hidden costs - if they want to prototype a complex interaction, perhaps with some animation, they need some developer time or are using tools so complex that they may as well just learn to write the code. If they produce a design that doesn't work as well on a phone as it does in Photoshop, that's a lot of lost developer time. In my opinion, these are costs that a lot of organizations can't afford, and don't think about when they hire purely visual designers. All that talk about "you can only be an expert at one thing", while true, misses the fundamental point that designers don't need to be expert developers: they just need to be good enough to enjoy the benefits of being able to bring a design into reality (regardless of whether that code actually makes it all the way to production).
That sounds like a guy I knew. He planned to kick all his kids out as they approached adulthood and if they wanted to leave sooner, he'd let them go with the understanding there was no coming back after leaving the nest.

He's also very strict, hence the possibility the kids might want to leave before they reach adulthood.

It's not something I could do but it probably works for some people.
