That's rather ironic, because I read your comment you linked to, and it is pure speculation. The Goodreads dev said "the site was originally built as a giant pile of Rails spaghetti with views mixed with business logic…
Until they ant to retire. Then what do you do? If you are happy to walk away and hand the "business they work at" for free to someone, flame on. Thing is, unless that is family, who would you give it to and why?
Ditto - and the same with the claims of solar and wind companies because of - [Goodhart's Law - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law - "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure" But even…
I wish regulation worked that way! Regulations change all the time - if not in law certainly in practice/interpretation. That is what makes industries with heavy regulation such risky investments.
Goodhart's Law: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure" Any ESG system that uses a calculated number composed of many areas will quickly fall prey…
I wish articles like this had prominent dates!
They don't do they? By my count all the non-front end devs do back end, so Client Applications (2), Core Services/Platform (1) & Dev Ops/Infra (1)
OK, so you read that section and see it as "repeatedly said programs that are aimed at a helping women and people of color should be ended"? There is another section with programs Damore claimed would be more effective.…
Can you point me to the section that says that: https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3914586/Googles-I... Being as generous with the interpretation as possible, I guess suggesting new programs to replace existing…
Is there a name for that, where whatever the limit is, people set things right at it? The same is true in progressive tax brackets, and the number of cancer cases that people get right when people are eligible for…
Then that is tomorrow me's problem! I honestly think a lot of thinking works that way, where we'll let tomorrow me worry about it. To be fair, a lot of the time it makes sense. The problems a solution creates are things…
Purely economically motivated decisions are rare. We all have reasons beyond the financial to live wherever, including something as simple as our wife/husband wants to live there. There is also an inertia bias. Life has…
How does that relate to this specific law? Something can be bad, and the cure as bad or worse. Can we all agree on at least that?
It was never about pay, it was about all the other conditions. I am sure there is a model that provides some revenue that works for all concerned, but when you demand algorithm updates for a few, it is just plain silly.…
It is not (just) about paying. It is about a condition that demands Google reveal their algorithm. This is a common problem with modern legislation, where the awful, disgusting, dirty politics of the things hidden in…
Made worse when you have lots of money and even more stakeholders. Perhaps worst of all, when failure has no true cost, avoiding failure matters far less. The CDC won't go broke because they blew through $44 Mil. Most…
> the fact that the folks advancing Too many arguments boil down to people, and motives, not facts. It is a bad idea to put the short term desire to see a foe vanquished over the long term cost of bad laws and policy.…
Just like Shelley Miscavige is free and safe. I often wonder how much the CCP studies Scientology, as I think Scientology has been really successful in avoiding any real consequences.
Try having kids: > You listen to these tracks too much: > - Rock-A-Bye Your Bear by The Wiggles Which, to be fair, is my second favourite Wiggle song!
It works for most paywalls, NY Times being one I remember, so it is handy beyond one article. Likely there are a bazzillion reasons you can't optimise the current browser to turn off JS, and what are the chances anyone…
1. Download Opera - https://www.opera.com/download - this avoids breaking anything with JS you need. 2. Turn off JavaScript in Opera. 3. Copy and paste the link.
https://console.cloud.google.com/ is down as well. Seems very much an identity issue.
I think these arguments assume welding is a low-skill job. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25166696 seems to explain why it isn't. There are definitely some industries where the cost to get to the level where you…
I think this sort of response to the interview misses the forest for the trees. This is the best article on elections I have ever read. When I first read it I felt for the first time I understood how the game is scored.…
It is already worse than the GFC in 2009. UK GDP dipped 21.7% in Q2, NZ ~13%, and the US ~10%. https://ourworldindata.org/covid-health-economy Where it ends is anyone's guess, and the worst part will be the second and…
