I think anyone who's gone through and completed an intensive collegiate CS program can strongly attest to this.
I can also relate this research to quality / seemingly-well-meaning managers I've had over the past few years. Managers who seem in control never pass off the stress of deadlines or crunch to engineers - longer time thinking about things regardless of difficulty result in better code and fewer potential land-mines down the road (even in startups). As soon as you deviate from that or start putting the pressure on engineers to crunch for a deadline you're asking for high-turnover and bad code that WILL cause issues down the line (many engineers also see this as a direct attack on their ability to uphold their quality of work).
As someone on the sidelines I can confirm that dev boards / most Xilinx products seem to have markedly hire price tags than comparable products from competitors...
Not that bad - intel already has an arguably strong networking department and recently purchased Altera for their FPGA tech. This is why above comments mention the benefits of nVidia purchasing Xilinx - one of the only other serious producers of cutting edge FPGA hardware - which happens to be what makes or breaks most high-throughput networking tech.

Seems like every blockchain should have a baked in “genesis” procedure and “felling” procedure (yep, a logging term since you’re “severing” the Merkle tree) to tie up all sources of new transactions and stumping or “tarring” the blockchain. Sureley there’s fantastic logging vernacular to draw from to name the period between the start of a “felling” and the resultant stump.
Can't agree more. Your point is also applicable to people who delude themselves into believing an "off-grid" or "homestead" lifestyle is less burdensome to the environment or lends to a less consumerist way of life...
> The only way to keep rents this low in the face of rising demand is public housing that is rented out below market rates to low income tenants, or via a lottery.
Except for the fact that poor people aren't the ones driving up demand or prices for decent housing...
I agree, I think the fact that we laude those with money or power on a pedestal based on immutable attributes is a problem.
Just as many imply money with power and evil - but seem to make passes for their favorite actors or celebrities.
I think we'd be in a better place if we could accept as a culture that gluttony in money and power without reason, irregardless of what someone thinks is "enough" money, should be met with criticism agnostic of race, gender, etc.
My only caveat is for people to assume that anyone with more money than them - moreover anyone who owns a business is "evil" by design. This seems to be one the more present falsehoods of Hollywood as of late. IMO, to take the potential gains out of act of taking risk to build something is wholly un-american. I think making more public those who fail in business or make huge sacrifices more present in media would help this. I only bring this up because the general public seems to tie certain attributes to people they're "okay" with being successful and others who they deem evil just because popular media told them those people don't "deserve" their success or wealth. Et al - the farmer in Iowa or small business owner in Chicago making $250k +.
This is terrifying, if rskelton is OP I'm truly sorry you had to deal with this POS.
Personal favorite of your updates is "found his hair gel in the car".
You know you're #winning in life if you date 21yr old college girls in your late thirties, use hair gel and still live with your parents - while portraying yourself a "Attorney for the Streets ™️" (full stop with a ".law" tld).
Even Charlie Sheen would shake his head at this loser!
"Disinformation" still seems to be a convenient and insidious vague way of describing "indiscriminate" bias... that also gives Google a free pass to listen and peak at anything going through their systems to "correct" behavior they deem misinformative.
Depending on how you interpret that, she could be a "good divorced wife" soon enough - although given marriage law in the U.S. you'd end up in the same 1/2 salary situation or divorced 1/4 salary situation lmao...
This title seems to amply describe most of the people I met while living in the Bay Area - both around the Peninsula (MTV ~ Los Altos) where I lived and in SF.
I completely disagree - seems like pricing insurance for self driving vehicles competitively would be a great way to ensure more people transition to self driving vehicles rather than conventional vehicles.
Not to mention that the definition of what work, productivity or deliverables is varies vastly from company to company or industry to industry.
Not working for an entire day per week or having sporadic / limited hours of operation could also end up being a huge pain for a client or anyone not in your company you may be working with.
I'm definitely a proponent of the sentiment of this article, however, I can confirm that working with a remote team in another country where nobody seemed to work more than 25hrs per week on their technical team was annoying as hell. Not only did this make solving problems harder, they also had notably lower productivity and output of meaningful contributions...
