This is a bad idea. What happens if the Trump administration subpoenas this information to track down the families of "illegal" immigrants?

I can speak to the onboarding on the Eng side:

* Good readmes. Every project is required to have a readme.md that's not boilerplate. Since every team is different, the quality of the readmes range from well-organized to stream of consciousness. But the point of the readme is that it's the very first document when on-boarding and contains instructions to set the project up, as well as git blame information so the new person can find the right person to bug for more information.

* Pair programming. There's no silver bullet for onboarding and you just need to accept the friction. Having new devs pair with experienced devs as they go through their daily workflow is the most useful way, IMHO, to get comfortable with the codebase and transmit cultural norms and values.

I wonder if physical pornography (magazines, DVDs, etc) will make a comeback in the UK because of these changes. Privacy-conscious consumers will see it as a discrete alternative to being tracked (and eventually one of these AgeID databases is going to be hacked)

> given all of the research into the effect of social media on one's mental state?

Given that research, wouldn't that make Facebook be the best platform for an anti-depression chat-bot? That's where the users will be.

The one real advantage I know of is Tmux is compatible with mosh. I made the switch from screen to tmux and have noticed that there's a more active community.

Wow. Does anyone know more about the VC firm The Founders Group that funded the scam?

This is a good point. The sentiment of "deplorables" is largely being removed and modeled-out from the mainstream internet/media and helps create a filter bubble. However, I don't think those comments give any value to the users of the site.

Is there any startup/hi-tech activity in Pullman besides Schweitzer?

That is some seriously unreadable documentation. I thought we moved away from mystery-meat navigation when flash died?

(Mystery-meat meaning when I click on the nav arrows, I don't know where I'll go)

Is this satire?

As much as I hate to defend Lindsey Graham, I honestly think he's running for the VP slot. He would make an appealing VP for the Republican base -- hawkish on defense and a veteran of senate dealmaking.

This is awesome! It's nice to see automated ways to enforce code standards. I only wish this could be integrated with bitcoin so developers who followed the standards (or pimped out their IDEs with linters) could be rewarded.

What happens when Curiosity contaminates the RSLs with radiation?

The New York Times website has some great annotated JS source code.

This is really really cool. I've worked on similar systems of bundling together parts, and your site is well-executed. Maybe you could call it "Pricewatch for Drones"?

> The problem with surveys asking about behaviors is that it gathers unreliable data.

But the point of doing the surveys is not to gather reliable data -- it's to generate clickbait headlines that will go viral. Even if the sample size is 10 and p is hacked to bits, people are going to share your "Android Users 3 Times More Likely to Drop Their Phone in Toilet" blog post.

I don't know if it's lazy, but it's certainly annoying.

This is the first time I've seen New Orleans on a who is hiring thread!

I purchased my last home from these guys, who provide a pretty cool search tool: http://www.mmsre.com/residential/

How will the lawnmower know where it is with just WiFi?

What do you mean by implement a database? Do you mean and design and program your own?

If that's the case, a good resource would be to look at the developer guides for popular open source databases, such as the one for PostgreSQL[0], which will give a guide to how those databases are put together.

When I'm working on multiple monitors/desktops and I switch to one and want to do some work there, but my 'active window' context is in previous spot where I was working!

I wish someone would invent some type of eye tracking that would intelligently assign the context to open windows on your screen(s).

What would be an example of good programming primary sources?

Wouldn't it be ironic if that computer seeded life across the universe in the hopes that it would evolve to someday create computers.

To make sure we're talking about the same thing; the pink line in the second graph on the techcrunch article is what you're talking about when "the bubble goes parabolic".

That pink line represents the number of seed deals completed, not the amount of money in the system.

Unfortunately, I cannot download the original dataset that Mattermark is using, but using a dataset from Pricewaterhouse Coopers[1], and data from FRED[2], I have run some statistical analysis using R.

My results are here: http://imgur.com/a/eFzs1

In short, the only statistical correlation I can find between QE and Seed capital is a negative one, which would contradict your original hypothesis.

I would say you're comparing apples to oranges by conflating Investment Bonds (which I'm assuming you mean Treasury Bonds), but you've already set yourself up for the apples and oranges with your example.

If you'll check the source article[0] that the Techcrunch graph was pulled from, you'll see that there is a negative correlation between the Treasury bond yield and the amount of money flowing into seed deals.

According to your Textbook Econ 101, there should be a positive correlation between these two. But the data shows there is not.
