I'm more curious - as someone who works in Cloud Support - what kind of "Experts" we are talking about here. The Google product space is massive.
A Job's Guarantee is a real movement, and a reasonable idea for this reason. Not having a job puts you in a lower social caste - might as well have them doing SOMETHING. Even if it's not especially productive, the small positive affect is better than nothing.
As a Boilermaker alum, let's not shorten it to "Purdue".
When you realize that legitimately becoming rich is such a long shot no matter how great you do, the idea of cheating becomes alluring.
Helps if you keep in mind that Jeff Bezos could accidentally tip you enough money to live the rest of your life without a job.
Well, nothing ever left Twitter's servers. The logs themselves would probably be uninteresting to outside parties and inaccessible.
Well, Hash tables are much more complicated. I think the closest analog is going to be a jump table, just with fancy math.
I feel like the hardest part of Assembly is all of the hex math required...
> but I'd rather just get my job done than be an emotional sop for my coworkers, or worse have other people be an emotional sop for me
I don't think you have to be in THAT kind of relationship with coworkers.
When the choice is to commit crimes or live in hellish poverty, the choice becomes easier. Going to prison just means you get free food and board for a while. Sure, it's awful. But your only shot getting a better life is crime....
Thanks for this, I'll have to take a look at FastText. I've been using word2vec before turning it into a matrix and running it through a CNN. I based it off of Yoon Kim's[0] work. I haven't had much luck though on my 92-class problem. Maybe Fast Text will work better, although I think there are a lot of improvements my model can have still.

> This leads to a ton of actual problems too: You get a person really really good at coding / execution but shit in big picture thinking / broad system design choices / cross team work etc. spend a bunch of time in a level. Now you have to either promote him into a spot where s/he will fail OR lose em to attrition. Either choice tends to break.
I hate this issue, and see it occur in so many companies. Why are we so opposed to simply paying more/increasing benefits of people at the same level? Why can't an "regular" Engineer just get a large raise for being an amazing Engineer, because that's what you need! Instead, they need to be come a "Senior" Engineer who also has some kind of other management-type job that they suck at.
I'm not sure how these are a mystery.
Wages aren't going up because there is nothing forcing them to go up. The upper class just takes their rents and insists paying more wages would tank the economy.
Participation is going down because there's little reason to seek employment if you know the employer is just attempting to shaft you. You produce $40/hr, but they'll pay you $8/hr. You can't negotiate, they'll just find someone who is desperate.
If it wasn't an automated system, they would have the cost of someone going through everything.
Do you really doubt that this is constantly happening and people are paying? Just look at the people who get DMCA'd for content they made themselves. Same system, just instead of paying a fee they lose their youtube/Twitch.
I guess it depends on what you mean by "become a developer".
I think a lot of the increased difficulty is the skill of developers. At one point, knowing how to edit HTML would get you an interview. Now, I feel like I might need a successful Python library so I can get an interview...
Not sure if it's a bad thing or not, since the art is just becoming better.
Should be illegal.
I'm sure countless people pay these kinds of fines, just assuming that the company threatening to sue them is legitimate.
What's to stop me from just making a cool company name and sending cease and desist letters asking for fines for all kinds of "IP"?
What?
So far everything that has come out has disproved all of the claims in the memo, including the memo itself!
And of course your comment won't get anywhere, you just made up a bunch of nonsense. For example, I read the text messages. I didn't know that a calendar of Putin is now Obama's conspiracy to destroy Trump. Those scoundrels!
Re: 1)
As far as the Clinton/DNC leaks go, there was actually nothing damaging in them. Yet somehow it got spun up into a giant conspiracy that they had evidence didn't exist, thanks to the leak!
Not like default thermostats are free either, and a lot of them have mind-blowingly bad UX. "Just hold down these 4 buttons at once while hitting these two up arrows to adjust the time!"
I've been using VS Code and WLS to execute the Ubuntu version of Rust from the bash console in VS Code. I'm not sure if this is a good method or not... but it feels very natural.
Where do they find these web devs? Any sane framework just gets rid of this problem for you with almost no effort.
> The sad reality is, this type of behavior is not confined to one party or the other
Certainly, not only one party engages in corrupt behavior. That doesn't make them equivalent. They're not even close, and the relentless attempts of "both sides do it" are part of the reason we're in this mess.
>The folks benefitting from a thing will vote themselves money and perks until the place is bankrupt
So, executive boards of companies?
Not OP, but I presume the regulations would be important too. Part of being FDIC backed is maintaining a certain amount of currency that is VERIFIED.
Issue here is that there is no one giving confidence that Bitfenix has any currency at all, we have to trust their word.
Is it really replacing better products? If those products were better, I'd be interested in using them.
Instead, Google gets me the same results, quicker, 99% of the time.
I feel like he's thinking of 14 Celsius, not Fahrenheit
What you're describing is just a classifier, and you can certainly train something to do this. However, I'm quite skeptical it would work well.
I suppose if you were Google and had all their data, perhaps. Putting different data types together (like text, pictures, locations) adds a lot of difficulty.
To me, this conversation represents the two classes.
One guy is living life probably pulling in upwards of $150,000 a year (or living in a lower cost of living place with six figures income). Simply budgeting well will cover all these things. And another thinks that "budgeting" means you don't get to eat on Mondays so you can keep on bills.
Against local companies (like for in Seattle), it also creates an issue of competition for employment. In Seattle, every job I'm applying to is also being applied to by ex-Microsoft and ex-Amazon employees. It's a much harder competition to land jobs, but in the smaller markets you could find work much more easily.
