Thanks for the feedback!

Our goal in terms of functionality, is to make it easier for people to enjoy the versatility of pipe fittings (Kee Clamps, FitzKitz) and slotted extrusions (80/20, Minitec) while providing a seamless design better suited for living spaces.

As you suggested, it'll definitely help us to have a better explanation of our materials and structural integrity. I'll work on updating the information :)

Right now our components are designed to widthstand similar loads as a 1"x1" T-slotted aluminum framing system, and it's been a fun but difficult challenge to make it more cost efficient and user friendly.

You seem like you have very good knowledge of building materials and furniture making in general! Would love to have you on our beta creator group so you can give us even more feedback as we develop the product. Thanks!
Helpful, as my wife and I keep considering moving to Europe for a spell. It probably won't be so difficult as I am an Italian citizen and she is British; however with the UK leaving the EU, suddenly we may have to worry about her being an EU resident either as a guest from the UK, or as someone married to me (which means lots of paperwork in a language I don't understand).

Also, her job in a hospital means she needs to speak the local language "unless--" .. which probably means unless they have a specific need for a native english speaker who does not have to know the local language, or if it's an American military hospital, or...
They probably have some awesome demos that require a 10 pound wired headset connected to a renderfarm.

Of all the companies, good for them for raising more. A moonshot to build the metaverse is what a tech startup should be.

Wow this shit is a bigger downer than I thought...
> The "traditional understanding" of getting an applicant to your job that is over qualified is that they are just trying to get a paycheck while they look for something better.

With the current lack of bonds between employer and employee, you must consider that all your employees are in this condition.
Two things come to mind:

1) Roman Hruska's comment about "there are a lot of mediocre judges and people ... They are entitled to a little representation, aren't they, and a little chance?"

2) Robert Jordan sued and lost because his approximately 125 IQ was considered too high by the police department he applied to, and this was ruled legal and "rational" discrimination.
I completely disagree, but that's you would expect as the Executive Director of the Foundation (http://symphony.foundation) that is trying to drive these banks in embracing open source and open collaboration as a better way to build technology.

I do believe that end users will benefit by these firms not reinventing the wheel and building innovative, more interoperable and ultimately better technology.

I, my team and I know I speak on behalf of our Community are committed to this level of transparency.

Finally the beauty of open source is that you don't have to trust a PR article, just go look at the code at https://github.com/symphonyoss/plexus-interop and decide for yourself.

And if unsure reach out to the plexus-interop@symphony.foundation mailing list, it's all in the open!
That's the point: the over qualified are more likely to find something better.

[Edit: that's the employer's logic. Right now I'm on the wrong side of that equation, but I can understand their concern. Even if it's true that you really want the job and not that "better" job that might not even exist or you may not really consider "better".]

I hear this argument a lot, but:

1: If so many people are ok with it, then why not take a vote? If they are ok with it, they will vote for the current government. If they are not ok, then this argument is false and the current government should be voted out of office. Either way, a vote is good for China.

2: If the citizens are ok with it, then why does the government have to censor criticism and non-government ideas, run massive propaganda operations on their own citizens, jail dissenters, and oppress Tibet and Xinjiang? How do you know if the citizens are ok with it?

3: Parts of China that do have democracy and human rights, Taiwan and Hong Kong, seem to like those things very much - it's not a popular idea in those regions, or even an idea at all, to trade in democracy and human rights for the mainland's political system; no Taiwanese candidate makes that pitch to the voters! Also, people in Taiwan and Hong Kong are far more prosperous per capita than those on the mainland (I'm excluding Hong Kong from the "mainland" in this case.)

> certain freedom tradeoffs vs. improvements in other areas of quality of life.

It's not a tradeoff, it's just a needless sacrifice. All the wealthiest, most secure nations it the world have democracy and human rights. It's not a Western thing; that includes the wealthiest regions of China, Japan, South Korea, etc. What is the Communist dictatorship providing in this tradeoff?

This is still true even when the people getting discounted are of the same race and culture as the interviewer, though. Like, hospitals seemingly don't want doctors that grew up in the US but then studied medicine at foreign universities—even when those universities are world-renowned for producing great doctors.

Unless you're suggesting that such places think that the foreign culture "contaminated" their own countrymen in the few years they were abroad—and made them useless—a different explanation is needed for this effect.
I will add those resources as well. It's just, it takes time to collect and curate content.

>However, maintaining the air dryers and replacing the filters sounds like it wouldn't be any cheaper than conventional phase-change cooling, and having to build custom vacuum/compressor pumps for the hyperloop project is going to be more expensive than buying COTS vacuum pumps.

Just want to point out a facet of such a project that you probably haven't considered. The EPA puts strict requirements on the operators of refrigerant systems, the way they categorize operator class is based on pounds of refrigerant. Thus even though a COTS phase change refrigerant system seems like the obvious choice for Hyperloop One, because of regulatory burden it would almost certainly unfeasible. A refrigeration system big enough to cool a hyperloop would have to have every inch of refrigerant line spray tested every 3 months or an insanely expensive monitoring system.

Thank you! I'll ask some more questions tommorow after I sleep on it if you don't mind.
It could be a deal, it could be a steal, or it could be too good to be true.

In either case it's a red flag that should be carefuly evaluated.

> Or are people finding roms, perhaps intended for use with emulators, and loading those onto physical cartridges and selling them without renumeration or permission?

I think they're talking about this case (based on the wording "rom hack cartridges"). Someone takes an original game ROM and modifies it in some way (translation, level mods, whatever). Someone else takes the modified code, burns it onto actual hardware, and sells the result.

> Sort of related: I know this requires some specialized equipment to make new cartridges, but do you know if they sell blank cartridges that can just be loaded with games?

The usual method that I know is to remove the ROM chips from a donor cartridge (a working game), and replace them with chips flashed with customized data. The donor cart would need to provide the same custom chips/memory mappers/whatever that the game code expects to be present.

They maybe highly qualified but what about their communication skills?

There is a lot of competition as well too many immigrants chasing few jobs.
It's particularly encouraging to see it posted with mistakes. Sure, it's a bit of a joke, but it's also an experience to learn and grow from. Reflecting on past projects is so rare that I think it might be the best indicator of a programmer who will continue to improve.
> than a fresh person with a strong desire to learn and grow

...who is also going to leave as soon as they get a nice offer.
As I had to work more with teams and then supervising teams I changed the abstractions I value from when I was programming solo: Now I care less about my project's function than the structure of the team. There is a saying that any complex project will end up mimicking the communication structure of your organization. I must confess I thought it was silly until I realized it happened to us.

I now favor code that has a lot of independent modules that can have hacky inner code but that must have clear, explicit and preferably simple interfaces. The project's manager role is to design these interfaces and has the last work on their implementation.

This is a bit the Unix way. Every module has to do one thing (and optionally do it well). This allows veteran programmers who know all the subtleties of the programming language to collaborate with rookie programmers who may write okay-ish modules that we may have to rewrite later but that work well enough.

It also allows programmers, these very territorial beasts, to have their own little realms they control and where they are acknowledged. It helps non-tech managers understand who has to be assigned on different issues and evolutions.

I'm guessing there must be other jailbreaks involved to be able to observe and experiment on the ios kernel side of things while developing the wifi chip exploit; going in all blind from the wifi side only sounds impossible. The question now is, are they sitting on 0day jailbreaks for current iOS versions or did they have to do all the tests on legacy iOS versions?
But you can go too far there. The Witness guy explained it like this: You need to do a breadth first search of your code. If you rabbit hole for weeks making the perfect level design tool before you have already made a working prototype of the game for example, you might then months later, as you build out the game, realize the level building tool you have made isn't really suitable.

As you start filling out the breadth of your design a time will come when you know an idea is going to work, and you have more knowledge to inform your tool.

Of course to what extent you should approach the coding breadth first vs depth first will depend on how clear of an idea you have for the design. If you were just doing a near-clone of Doom and you have done this before then maybe you can just rabbit hole pretty deep from the get go.

> "That is, you have to be willing to use arguments that you think are false, just because the person you're trying to convince will believe them.

It feels weirdly like lying; like you're a politician swaying the populace with empty rhetoric. But you're not saying things that nobody would believe (if given long enough to think about them); you're instead just getting into the head of—empathizing with—the person who holds those axioms, and then saying things that you—as that person—really do believe." -derefr

Response to derefr: If you are willing to use an argument that you think is false then, by definition, you are lying [even in situations where the lie can be mistaken for truth by others].

and

> "E.g., 'putting your best foot forward' for a job interview or first date can feel like a kind of dishonesty, although it's expected in those cases. I wonder how you could start drawing a definitive line between "good" empathic manipulation and "bad" sociopathic manipulation, when even just smiling at someone can be manipulation of a sort?" -zazen

Response to zazen: If it feels like dishonesty then it most definitely is. Consider cases where the interviewee simply lacks confidence but puts on a facade to appear otherwise. As for drawing a line between "good" and "bad" manipulation, reference derefr's note:

> "To use "empathy aikido" on them—to come up with arguments that will convince them of something, not slowly and laboriously from logical first principles, but by building up quickly from what they already assume to be true—you have to be willing to make arguments that are true under their axioms, but not under yours. That is, you have to be willing to use arguments that you think are false, just because the person you're trying to convince will believe them." - derefr

The addition of "but not under yours" constitutes manipulation on grounds which are aside from truth.
Never thought of the nostalgia factor but that makes sense. Fwiw the school means served it because those regions (and the entire country) was too poor to afford any other kind of meat.

These guys are amazing. Excellent level of details.
Not sure why you were down voted here, but this is my EXACT rationale at the moment. I am a 50 year old programmer who sold his software consulting business a couple of years back. I figure the ONLY way I can stay actively programming these days is to buy a ticket in the good old "startup lottery".

I've created 5 SaaS apps and around 10 mobile apps in the 3 years since I sold my business. Almost all the early ones struggled or failed completely. My current SaaS seems to be doing well, and I expect that it will see me through retirement. I guess I finally got lucky on a winning ticket :) I would expect a lot more players in this game as people age out of the software development world over the next few years.

Hey, this seems cool but I don't really know why...

New to vue.js and maybe I'm doing things... Wrong? But I don't think I need this.

My approach is very angularJs-esque but I have a root component 'main.vue' which basically acts as my index.html. When I want to send a REST call I've got a method setup which handles GET calls and another for POST calls... I use them how you would call an angular service, and it works... Well (at least I thought so until seeing your post).

Can you explain why I'm stupid and everything I've done is wrong?
>About 15 years ago I came to the conclusion that "over qualified" was never a legitimate disqualifying disposition of a candidate.

Which is about the same time I decided the opposite, having been burned a couple times. You're neglecting the amount of time and effort other people in the group put in to make a new employee productive. Where I work it takes an absolute minimum of about three months to understand how all the moving pieces of the business data flow fit together, and maybe another three before the new person is truly independent.

And during that time other people in the group are spending time on the new guy instead of doing work themselves. If I hire someone and then he quits in six months, all that effort is wasted.
I misread that as "silver light" and thought it was quite a clever pun on silver haired programmers... :)

Another trope that bothers me, along similar lines, also appears in this article: that people have always had anxieties about the changing ways and attitudes of the youth, and so we should dismiss such fears.

In fact, ancient civilizations did fall, sometimes because their people lost the will and confidence needed to maintain the institutions that they inherited. Because they became decadent in their abundance and abandoned the virtues that created their fortunes in the first place.
Is it possible they are inflating their needs in the expectation that applicants are inflating their resumes?

I am 22 and see this all the time for positions needing 1-2 years experience. Plus, it is a great way for them to offer you a wage towards the lower end of the salary range while applicants feel happy getting a title they might not deserve.
> Licensing empowers the engineer to refuse to do something that violates sound engineering practice according to the license and have legal recourse against retaliation.

It would just put most legal liabilities on engineers vs the org. It's a great way to protect management, that's the only thing it's going to do. That's exactly how dumb traders end up being scapegoated with each financial scandal. Any engineer who would dare report any wrong doing would be blacklisted for life from the IT industry.

Business like Equifax already have legal requirements at the org level, let's not shift all responsibility onto engineers.
