To complete the picture, it's also unreliable schedule-wise. And it's in poor condition, your car might be insanely noisy (bring ear plugs), and bone jarring (give up on that one and move to another car.) For all that, it's n

At least here, the problem is absolutely not the "bottom 1/3" but the mentally deranged and the outright violent. Completely different category. You seem to conflate the two and that doesn't represent the situation on th

This, horribly, may be a current Silicon Valley view. That's the problem. By contrast the example I gave elsewhere in this discussion is "France ages ago noticed a problematic reliance on fossil fuels and decided to actually solve

Of course. And metals smelters, and street lighting. Whatever. The point was that the fine article didn't care about that because it was a political hatchet job, rather than informing on how or why electric power is used in Ireland.

Isn't that a legitimate part of learning professional poker? To measure how much you play against (now) known strong players?

This "mutually beneficial" goes often unappreciated or un-noticed. But it's key. Yes, at the limit, nobody forces the poker players to keep playing - they both want to keep playing. Sure. But in economic exchanges, all partie

Also distinction between learning (mostly) and production (mostly). In investing, business and no doubt poker there is nothing wrong with a period of losing money while learning. But you better be aware and be learning and you better not to

Right? That's the problem. There is nothing inexorable about it. France ages ago noticed a problematic reliance on fossile fuels and decided to actually solve that problem (for power and heating). That was a super ambitious program of

Has "at-all-costs" ever been the idea? Is it the only way?

I think this is a very serious problem. There are still ambitious people, but ambition is now ipso facto evil (whether in business, tech, science, finance, law). That's the politically correct meme. Automatic. And hard to reverse as ni

Exactly. Furthermore, the fine article mentions 21% going to datacenters (of which, which fraction might be off-shoreable anyway?), and 18% to homes. Okay, that leaves 61% going to what? Which other industry uses have been going up or down?

TVs, I mean TVs made to be TV sets, don't have PCs so to speak running them. I don't know what proportion of them use that, but there are lots of chips made to lower the chip count while providing the specific functionality needed

It's rare that you will be working for that interviewer. Much more likely this is just one of the juniors, one of the team, that you may work "with" but not "for". They still matter, as soft skill, because they will

It's true that the interview result can only be as good as the interviewer's skill and awareness of what to look for. Which will often be terrible. BUT that does point out a mis-perception of the interview process. You will do bet

There is a lot of knee-jerk reaction in the line of "but what if someone abuses it! OMG!". As mentioned everywhere, the optimal amount of fraud is not zero, and the optimal test coverage is not 100%, and the minimal budget will ce
