That’s not a development fail. They need better product people maybe? Also, google has money to spend so the bar for a launch may have been much lower in the past.

You’re ruling out all candidates who work on classified systems and those under an NDA

Don’t the boost libraries use a bunch of namespacing? And I think you need boost to be decently useful in c++.

Is there an issue with automation costs on a small farm or is it that margins are too low? Not sure if that’s a good opportunity for companies or startups to target.

The question I have is that even with the 1st derivative at 0 (ie no inflation), the prices will still be too high. I believe prices won’t drop.

You’re assuming a lot here. Most IOT security is on shaky ground. They probably went with the cheapest vendor too. There isn’t a compromise reported but I’m willing to bet that whatever was implemented was very insecure.

Not sure about the China angle, but if he's in Singapore he may be safe. Allegedly the Singapore-US extradition does not cover money laundering [0]. Although, I'm not sure if this will count as Fraud or Money Laundering.

I’ve been through a couple of those. I’ve never been asked language specific questions. Most FAANG code interviews don’t care much about which language you choose. I’ve also not seen them care if you use OO or don’t. Either way works - as long as your algorithm is good.

In short this is irrelevant for those interviews. It’s definitely relevant if you do python as a day job.

My Teams works fine on my Mac without issues. Have been using it for over a year now.

Fwiw - I don’t understand why it’s hated. It’s a collaboration tool - mainly messaging and conferencing. It’s been decent at that for me.

Ummm - Modi is from one of the backward classes. Amit Shah is a Jain not Hindu upper caste. The president is a tribal woman. This whole upper caste bashing doesn’t reflect reality.

Indian royal families were mostly despots who were left to do what they wanted as long as the British got what they want.

They didn’t own anything. It’s basically stolen off the backs of people. I have no love lost there or any grief at them being cut off.

That’s curious. I mean why lay off ICs and ask managers to be ICs? Wouldn’t it be better to lay off managers and keep the ICs?

This is true. Here is the other thing. Promotions in corporate America are based on how well you know the hiring manager chain of command. Golf buddy? Oh he’s a great guy for a promotion. Church person - yup very ethical, let’s promote him. Know him personally - maybe went to the same college or support the same college football team, oh yes they’re a candidate for promotion.

Corporate America needs to get promotions out of the hands of the hiring manager chain of command. Create a board that’s independent and can deal with promotions impartially.

In absence of and independent entity handling promotions DEI is needed and necessary. Otherwise a lot of promotions are just plain nepotism.

I love my system76 laptop. Shit just works. No messing with drivers, setting, etc.

Absolutely!! And encourage them to take up a career.

I was talking about the dataclasses.dataclass annotation in 3.10/3.11. You can use slots with it.

You’re right, they’re dicts unless slots are used. I read the parent comment and saying you can define types easily. But you can with dataclasses

You can use dataclasses instead of dict now.

Maps, android and its ecosystem (play store, etc.), cloud, nest, gmail & google docs. All those have a significant market.

You can’t choose not to work in the US. You will be without health insurance.

I don’t know of single US company that allows their workers on their board. I’m not against it. I think it’s an awesome idea.

Why is that an OpenAI problem? It’s something the Kenyan government needs to solve. I fail to see why every company needs to subscribe to an SJW mindset.

They paid decent wages by Kenyan standards it seems. They did not force, exploit or abuse the workers.

How would it behave in a place like Chicago where we've had recent weather events that take the temperature from 40F to -10F in a couple of days? Will the system catch up that fast without ducts?

Web servers and http enabled services can limit the length of headers and url. While this can be done it runs the risk of having surprises when unknown limits are encountered. Most of these limits are buried deep in docs, not easily visible.

I’m Hindu, not Buddhist. But I don’t teach my children to meditate either although meditation is part of Hinduism. In fact I’d volunteer that most Hindu’s don’t meditate. It may be that it’s similar for Buddhism as well.

There’s a lot of churn around meditation. In my experience it’s not something you do unless you really want to. Even then, do not stress. I started meditation at around 25 and have been doing it for about 20 years now. You do how much you can. Sometimes 30-35 mins, sometimes just 5. But you do it daily. There is no magical peace that comes with overdoing it. It’s not that there is no benefit though. I have noticed I can better control my emotions and let go of irritations a lot better.

Cry it out is unnatural in my very humble opinion. It's a solution designed to get mothers back to work in a nuclear family. Children are a lot of work when little. It is extremely hard on the mother. There is also the big breast feeding mania - which while good will really not help the mother get back to work faster. I think we as a society need to make up our minds. Do we want more happy children and happy parents in a nuclear family or do we want mothers and fathers back to work as fast as possible with no regard to the children? It seems we're settling for the latter and making some bullshit pseudo-analysis that its the former.

What needs to be understood is that people are conditioned by their times and the company they keep. It does not mean they didn't do great things we should refuse to acknowledge. Yes, there should never be a hero complex. Flaws should be told as often as the feats. It's not done. Maybe the solution through the whole cancel campaign morass is to tell all sides of a person who has done great things. Acknowledge the wrongs and the achievements.

Please don't do Jugaad. I haven't met a single software engineer from India who thinks Jugaad is a good thing. It's not. If it's done it's meant to surmount bureaucratic or financial hurdles, not as a software development methodology.

Does freedom allow you to block apps? I have it and it works nicely for safari and my Mac. I haven't been successful in trying to have it block apps. Maybe because I have an ancient iPhone.

This made me smile. We did this with our elder daughter (now 12). It worked and then the pandemic came where they were given their chromebooks to take home. Luckily only YouTube was allowed. But still it did cause quite a bump in screen usage. Obviously the younger daughter caught on (now 8) and decided hey I can do YouTube as well.

Since last year as things have normalized, we basically restarted a bunch of their sports activities. Both kids had reading requirements from school and both seem to be in a spot where they will read before bed by themselves. The elder one reads quite a bit, probably around 1-1.5 hrs at night. The younger kid about 20-25 mins. They still do about 5-8 hrs of screen time each week. Still too much in my opinion but they also do a lot of stuff not on screen.

I still haven’t given them phones or devices. I myself have an iPhone-6 so not much runs on it either. But as the big kid starts being more independent I think a phone is going to be necessary.

My advice, if any, is keep non screen activities and person to person activity a priority. But keep in mind that her friends may get video games a lot earlier and they do form peers online which translate into peers in person.

I’ll second that. I’ve been doing python for a while and haven’t used the mixed type list. I’ve actively avoided doing something like that. The situation doesn’t come up often.

My personal take is I would go a level higher and define data consistency and availability requirements. Provide them to dev teams and if the teams need help meeting them I provide recommendations.

I generally try to keep design out of architecture. It’s what you need to satisfy product or service needs. The technology gets into how you want to implement. I try to leave that to the tech lead for the team.
