This happened to my girlfriend's checking account last week. She was charged an overdraft fee because auto pay decided to charge two days earlier. Then all traces of the transaction magically disappeared from her transaction history. Luckily, she took some screenshots of it. We just shrugged it off but I'm going to investigate it now.

Did the overdraft fee also disappear?

How does one turn into a helicopter or a large drone?

For a couple of seconds until you spawn, you can click on the icon of the type of plane you want. The icons are on the left side of the screen.

i suspect you register and begin to level up?

You don't have to register, they're all in the upper left corner.

We have a well decorated military general as our Director of IT Security. The general's background is purely in business administration and not background in IT security.

What about sitting for eight hours straight and then doing a hard workout afterwards? Is that still bad?

Yes, numerous studies have shown that workouts don't reverse the negative health consequences of sitting. That being said, such workouts can definitely help avoid (or at least reduce) other issues such as pain, e.g., by strengthening glutes that are weakened by sitting, etc.

It's not the sitting itself that is harmful, rather the host of tissue impingements and unfavourable biases in your musculature caused by sitting, or wearing shoes with elevated heels, etc.

Such issues cause us to compensate by adopting a different posture; one that will allow us to perform a desired movement now, but in the long run we suffer the consequences of this maladaptation.

An oft-cited example of a harmful adaptation is the proliferation of "heel-striking" running technique, which is a consequence of many people having poor ankle mobility (thanks, Nike).

To combat this, we can first establish what an ideal posture should be for a given movement, perform that movement under resistance, and use it to expose the areas in which we have a structural problem.

We then use that information to target problem areas (e.g. stiff hamstrings, shortened heel-cord, etc) with myofascial release and stretching.

Make mobility work a part of every workout you do (15-20 mins a day): use foam rollers/lacrosses balls to remove knots; use "banded distraction" to open up stiff joints. In my experience and anecdotally, such effort yields excellent results for pain-relief and improved posture.

I highly recommend Kelly Starlett's book "How to Become a Supple Leopard" and Steve Maxwell's mobility programs.

Well it's not great. You should really get up and move around during that 8 hours.

I attribute this to most of my lifting injuries. Unscientifically it strikes me as patently unhealthy to go from one extreme to the other without a long warm up period.

Yes. The industry calls them system engineers.

Hi,

I applied on the website. I have a solid background in embedded systems and C++ but I immediately received a rejection email. I wish I could have chatted with an engineer first :-(

Sounds like there was some disqualifying factor you're not aware of. (Citizenship, willingness to relocate, whatever.) No one sends out immediate rejection emails to experienced engineers unless they really have to.

I was open to all those things.

Just giving examples; I have no idea what the actual reason was. My overall point is that you shouldn't take it as an indication for your engineering ability; an instant rejection means that wasn't the thing.

What are the qualifications for becoming a maintainer? Is the bar set high? Is there a vetting process? I am interested but I'm not sure they will accept just anyone as a maintainer.

A person who has submitted some pr fixes and shows an understanding of the software stands a good chance.

Usually it is the guy who forks the original, and gets burried beneath patches?

You should definitely send a message to the gedit mailing list mailing declaring your desire to take over maintainership. If nobody replies send to a more general Gnome list.

I'd actually be interested to read a public reply to a potential maintainer for one of their unmaintained projects.

Mostly, a history of sending patches.

Do you have an email address? I have a few questions that I want to ask.

I just applied to the "Sr. Software Engineer, New Products, Roku TV". Do work with recruiting? Can my application be sped up? Thanks.

What's the salary ballpark range? I'm an experienced SW developer in Tucson and I find this position very interesting.

You can find University of Arizona salaries here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17bMR5x7I13fd6-7Yv-l_...

Look for "iplant" and "bio5".

Good lord there are assistant professors who make north of 300k? I had no idea!

What peterebailey said.

Ceteris paribus, someone who finds our projects, technologies, and public service mission compelling would be a better fit than someone trying to maximize salary potential.

Also, for those new to Tucson, look up the cost of living. I spend just 7% of my pre-tax salary on housing.

Just provide a range when candidates ask please. Its perfectly reasonable and the whole "we only want passionate rockstars that understand we are saving the world" farce is unprofessional.

Understood -- I'm not a hiring manager, just trying to get the word out for an open position on my team.

I am told "the minimum salary is $65k", and peterebailey's comment links to a spreadsheet listing the actual salaries of myself and all of my colleagues (as we are public employees). Hopefully that is sufficient.
