Any system that requires scale and performance and in-depth monitoring. The one thing about Java that most people miss is the javaagent based instrumentation that is exemplary. So when you’re in trouble you always have jconsole . There’s an excellent APM that we use called glowroot which is open source.

Also what all others have mentioned below.

It’s basically the government “strongly nudging” companies to start their RTO. I don’t think every company suddenly discovered they were unproductive

I’ve had the opposite situation. I’m a PE that works with a director. Problem is he’s been a lot more keen on the “shiny” than I am. After more than 25 yrs being an IC I’m definitely over the shiny. I can smell shiny tech debt miles away. Problem is trying to get the managers out of the technical path.

I don’t think she is the best trader. I think it’s her husband that’s the best trader.

The problem with this is that now you will have their spouses or children own the stock and not have similar reporting requirements. I don’t believe this ban will accomplish much.

Isn’t proliferation and ease of availability of student loans making college more expensive?

I’d hate to have college only be for people with means to pay. But I think tuition fee increases have far outpaced inflation.

Does this apply to private citizens or even government officials?

That’s why diving into research will not help general practitioners. Because research isn’t fact. You need a body of research along with oversight of statistical methods and its data collection to claim fact and that too with specific constraints.

So they do learn fundamentals but fundamentals do not come out of research papers.

I think a lot of your general practitioners are bound to follow protocol set forth by various medical organizations. So in that sense a lot of diving into research won’t help them. They need to understand and diagnose without having to worry about every little research paper. A lot of research papers aren’t truth - they are peer reviewed opinions.

Once you get to medical research groups that formulate those protocols, that’s where research becomes important.

Meta has always been a big open source contributor. We use their prophet model for forecasting extensively.

Their quality of open source has always been good for the things I’ve used.

For any large company I think you overestimate the amount of control that CEO’s and HR heads have. I mean they make broad policy decisions based on some cost & growth numbers.

I think the whole project killing long precedes Sundar or Ruth. In fact chrome (which Sundar handled product for I believe) is something that has endured.

Activity diagrams do a decent job too. But yes, sequence and activity diagrams are all I have used.

Isn’t this cause for defamation? Or is it protected under article 230?

Even if it’s not yelp doing it the fact that they are publicly advertising the reviews should make them culpable.

Won’t heap compaction and pthreads be a c++ skill set and not a python/django one?
