You're aware that they now allow gay members and leaders and that the atheism thing is on it's way out, right? I'm an atheist eagle scout. I'll grant you that it has been tough to get these changes in, but they are clear

So one might consider "the original intent" of your home as an investment to be something other than throwing your money at rent. If I put $2000 towards rent in a month, I have a place to live that month. If I instead put $2000 to

You also must realize that I don't actually use much python, c, or java. Those are just languages I can generally expect candidates to be comfortable with.

I work at another BigCorp and am involved with interviews. There are a ton of languages I just don't know enough of to interview you in, but a popular functional language (python) plus a choice of a structural language (c/c++ or j

As a former numrel person who definitely did not get credit, the LIGO collaboration deserved this.

I don't want to pile on, but I worked in numrel on binary blackholes and I have my gripes about the general gw community, but this is definitely not one of them. In fact, the GW community is probably one of the most open ones in physic

Referring to these people as "utter idiots" sure does make you sound reasonable and level headed.

Whether you blame researchers or not is inconsequential. People respond to incentives with a spectrum of responses from incredibly principled to entirely unprincipled. If the unprincipled are rewarded and the principled are penalized, the p

Refining aluminum is a particularly energy intense activity - much more so than iron.

This is entirely normal for your first month. Be patient with yourself and you'll catch on.

I think the sentiment might be driven by breathless and hollow pop-science like Michio Kaku books.

I did numerical simulations on black holes and the scientific method felt incredibly concrete to me. I was working on models that would be put to test by LIGO and further future GW detectors. Theory->prediction->test (in observation i

I didn't find anything the author wrote about to be all that scary or bothersome. First, I think the author is a bit overly paranoid as to what ML actually is accomplishing here, but second, all stores play games with product placement

I think your second reason is actually the primary reason. As long as people are hyperfocused on abortion, no politician loses votes on issues like this.

On the other hand, if somebody asked me what resources they could use to figure something out, then I'd be more than happy to help.

It isn't about being helpful or not, but about letting yourself be abused or not. Often times, the only difference between myself with a technology and the person asking me for help is that I am willing to read the documentation while

Don't be afraid to ask questions and find the end of your knowledge quickly. It's better to annoy an experienced developer than to accomplish nothing.

You have a few misconceptions and you are waaaaay overthinking this. The primary measure for this equilibrium is the time derivative of the mass-density-velocity, or momentum-density if you like. Now imagine a cube spinning on a primary axi

Most objects in space have some amount of spin to them. That is particles throughout a body, each with a velocity that may be changing, but the change in velocity with position is smooth, or the object would be ripping itself apart. This me

If you have a good manager or reasonable people on your team, you'll be given chances to see if you stay in the rails.

This is a place where having an awareness of what is important at your job can help. You described a process of adding features and fixing bugs. If you ever want to achieve balance, understanding the value of a feature so that you can deter

You're a junior SE and working remote? Yikes. I'd want others around that can help me out. So simply fixing bugs and adding features is a junior dev kind of task. Prioritization, understanding the business need - that's how y

I suspect there are a couple issues at play here. Boomers went through a social transition where women started into the workplace in ever greater numbers. They have had a higher divorce rate out of the chaos of that social contract change.

You realize that your position is, effectively, circular, right? Your argument is that readers can't determine an article's bias by reading it. There seems to be a definition of bias you're using here that can't be measu
