Incorrect. Viral media is incredibly cheap compared to traditional ad buys — their reach is reliably fast, global, and free beyond the means of production.

Don’t forget that much of the clickbait conspiracies that altered this election were written on WordPress blogs by individuals peddling “fake news” narratives, eg Obama wiretapping Trump, Pizzagate, Clinton Foundation trafficking Haitian earthquake victims, etc.

RT wasn’t just spending money on “sponsored Tweets” and that sort of thing. The Kremlin operates twitter bot armies that game propaganda visibility.

In that case, we agree. I too believe that a 1 hour coding interview is reasonable although I am not too sure if it is ethical to do so without paying. But if it is a 4 hour coding interview without pay, I am certain that it is unethical.

Since you asked for alternatives, here are some suggestions I have:

- If you want to do a 4 hour coding round even before a phone interview, at least pay for your candidate's time and effort.

- Otherwise, restrict your coding round to 1 hour. I think this strikes the right balance between lack of pay and my time spent.
Honest question: why should Dorsey not be seen as an exaggerated media story (by the media and himself) and what has he done which justifies the stock jumping that high?

He's run both companies for awhile now, Twitter has basically been stagnant. Doesn't he supposedly work like 80 hours a week anyway? It's already a full time job. Examples from 2011 and 2016:

http://money.cnn.com/2011/11/13/technology/dorsey_techonomy/...

http://www.businessinsider.com/jack-dorsey-explains-his-18-h...

Here is he 5 years apart, marketing himself. So if he's actually working 80 hours a week, where are the results? What has Twitter done over the last seven years? He wants to have his cake and eat it, too, yeah?
I live in eastern europe, in a city where the life quality is supposed to be the best in my country, working as a software engineer, making ~4 times more than the average salary and the rent and houses grew more than 100% in under 3 years. The problem is that the market adapted to us, the IT workers who can afford a decent rent or buy a house but what happens to students (which are a lot of them here) and people who make the minimum salary (which is ~250 euros / month) ? They are forced to live 3 or 4 in the same apartment or stay in a nearby location outside the city and then commute a longer distance. I expect a market crash in a few years and I'm wondering what will happen. My landlord did borrow a crazy amount of money to pay for an apartment and if the market crashes I expect my rent to go down but that won't happen anyway since the bank probably won't lower his rate. We are all fucked really. This is something that will happen in all growing cities, at one point something will explode.
Where I live (Orlando) monthly rent has been rising at a rate of 8 percent per year while wages have essentially stayed still. In the long run this is an unsustainable trend.

If a low income individual is able to rent a house while working a full time job and just make it every month, at the end of their current lease when rent adjust upwards they will be forced out. Moving costs alone will cost them several hundred to a thousand dollars. On top of that they need to find another place to live which may not be possible due to the upwards pricing trend. With little in the way of increased income, what is that person to do, especially if they cannot afford to move and don't have a family able to assist them?

I have no solution for this issue and certainly don't want to curtail anyone's ability to purchase and profit from property but the future prospects of those on the lower spectrum of incomes does not look good.
With a bit of training I'm fairly certain I could beat Paul Mooney at Go.

Also, I'm pretty sure that this kind of quipping can't be easily automated. You need to be able to figure out why beating Paul Mooney at Go is not such a big deal as beating Lee Sedol at it _and_ why this could be considered a funny association to make in the context of the above sentence. This is actually hardcore AGI stuff, well beyond our current reach.
The employer that provides the training derives no IMMEDIATE advantage from the activities of the intern;
and on occasion its operations may actually be impeded;

Thus, an intern can do work that the company profits from, it just doesn't need to be immediate.

Either one seems equally possible to me.
And thus why he will never have violated the ToS. He could openly threaten to murder someone and Twitter would not suspend him. (Though in fairness they rarely suspend anyone else either.)
RT is a particular case, because they publish things straight from a national state. Legitimate news sources do not. You'll never see them publish something that challenges their national sponsor.
Your pricing page notably omits transfer pricing. Do you have free bandwidth between yourself and AWS/GCP/Azure or do you peer at any major exchanges?

To test a machine learning algorithm, one can use "Fashion-MNIST": https://github.com/zalandoresearch/fashion-mnist

"Fashion-MNIST is a dataset of Zalando's article images—consisting of a training set of 60,000 examples and a test set of 10,000 examples. Each example is a 28x28 grayscale image, associated with a label from 10 classes. We intend Fashion-MNIST to serve as a direct drop-in replacement for the original MNIST dataset for benchmarking machine learning algorithms. It shares the same image size and structure of training and testing splits."

Hmm; I have been running extremely large projects on AS with a good but not out of this world machine.

Compilation times are too slow for my taste (ie even clean should take less than 5 seconds ideally), but the IDE itself is pretty smooth.

Again, the trick is to monitor its memory usage.
It is a pity that it's up to the user to configure this, but for large projects I had to allocate more memory to AS and it makes it go from unusable to lag free.

I'm asking you to clarify your view by presenting some scenarios that I consider relevant to the analysis of the main issue we are discussing.

Your point would be a lot stronger if you are able to convey a consistent world view for analyzing those scenarios, or by explaining how the scenarios are different. I mention them because I think they are similar and ought to be analyzed similarly, but I'm open to persuasion.

That seems like a rare case to me. Typically there's a company name or model number somewhere on the item, and often that identifier returns a very specific item.

Looking around my house, I only see a few items that don't have unique identifiers like furniture or plates/utensils. However, I suspect the majority of things sold through Amazon/eBay are more likely to be video games, books, toys, etc. with very visible and highly unique names.
+1, this is wonderful. Game changer in many ways. Can't wait to use it on some projects.

My feature request would be to integrate with PostgreSQL and the ability to query database functions / store procedures and filter results (ie select x,y,z from myfunction(parameter1,parameter2) ) for super fast processing of data at the database level and to leverage database plugins through functions.

I believe that the store procedures are possible through the `resolver` function feature; the only missing piece is probably PostgreSQL support.

Measuring research impact using AI
Now a similar battle is awaiting Germany. Which turns it into ashes. Modern Germans has nothing to do with those ancient heroes.
In other engineering industries, ignoring the heedings of engineers results in charges of criminal negligence and corporate executives spending time in prison. Eventually that will be the case for software engineering as well. But Equifax probably won't tip the scale. My money is on the first company that walks away unscathed after a self-driving car plows through a preschool or something like that.

We already had Toyota following the same abyssmally unsafe (but dirt cheap!) practices that most of the industry does, ignoring 90 of 94 'required or suggested' practices for firmware development the automobile industry recommends, their developers not even having a bug tracker, not using ECC memory while lying and claiming they were, etc resulting in multiple deaths - and an acquittal for criminal negligence. The court pointed out there are no standards that the court could claim they violated. And they're correct. This issue has been debated in the Communications of the ACM for several years now, whether software engineering needs some sort of certification process or regulatory body which can make substantive judgements. Companies don't want it because they're aware of what a laughably cheap resource software engineers are and don't want that price to go up. Software engineers don't want it because any regulatory body is destined to make stupid decisions. But how long will the general public tolerate being ground under the wheels (literally) of bad software before demanding something be done? And just how much worse will those standards be when drafted by committees of lobbyists and bureaucrats?

Good article about the Toyota fiasco:

I don't think the Russian narrative is about any evil geniuses, but simply that clear unbiased political analysis is still a requirement for an effective campaign. It didn't take an evil genius to realize that Trump's only path to victory was through the rust belt. In fact, I saw that fact mentioned multiple times in the weeks leading up to the election. Hillary's mistake was buying into the media narrative of a 90+% chance of victory (and probably not really understanding what that means--a 1 in 10 chance of losing is not something to hang your hat on when the stakes are this high). They should have been spending 100 to 1 in the rust belt and focusing their message towards the issues of that region.

I also don't buy it that Hillary "coming clean" about the emails would have been preferable to denying any serious wrongdoing. Everyone claims they value honesty and openness, but its probably an example of people saying one thing while acting entirely differently. Is it preferable to let a narrative form against her, or to simply use her own words against her to claim she's unsuitable to be president? I don't know, but its far from obvious that just copping to every claim against her regarding the emails was the right move.

There were many campaign missteps and ignoring the rust belt was chief among them. But ultimately she did have the election in the bag until Comey's 11th hour memo about more emails being found. There are a lot of external factors that caused her to lose, but it should never have been that close and it was because of her blind spot for the rust belt.

>- You did a huge redesign ~2 years ago that was frankly underwhelming. It added some SPA like functionality splattered through out the site, and many of the operations, like adding numbers to a Twilio Copilot service, became slow and buggy.

Not only to the developer portal/backend, but to the documentation as well.

It went from something that was really straightforward and easy to use, to something that feels like you have to fight it to find what you want. I'm really curious what happened, or why this design decision was made.

It's honestly bad enough that imho there is space for somebody with a better UI/documentation to move in and compete on that.

That's true, it does take time. Interviewing for larger companies at least in the US is usually 1 day onsite. Would you expect to get paid for that as well? In the end however you do it you'll have to spend a few hours interviewing.
I have a high opinion of some of the people who work for them more than I do the outlet itself. I don't read it on a daily basis. But when news breaks that actually holds up, it basically comes from Kotaku, Eurogamer, or (lately) Vice/Waypoint, while the sites started by or pushed by folks who get thirsty about those three--the Reaxxions, ha ha ha, of the world--are mostly just angry whineboxes.
I use VSCode as a full-blown IDE for Rust(including jump to def) and it works great for that.
I worked with a SaaS company, the type that builds software that other companies depend completely on. This company was around for many years.

They pushed new code straight to the production server/DB. No safeguards.

They didn't implement any source control. All new code is emailed to the project manager and engineers filled in a form explaining changes.

Project management is done on a checklist. In Excel. Schedules are in spreadsheet tables. It was all managed in emails. People would have dozens of copies of the schedules and often pulled the wrong one in a rush.

Dsspite all this email traffic, the company emails had very low size limits. A week of work and the inboxes would be full. So people would regularly drop stuff.

Staff were not native English speakers. They regularly typoed things and were not consistent. On some days, the API would be "product" then "prodduk" then "products" (actual variable name changed for privacy). So, app developers had to change their code to work around this API.

a few things come to mind :

- unikernel go
- making better parallel abstractions over network streams without having to deal with the mess of a kernel interface
- as a platform to implement more integrated network policy (like congestion control, or state management for ddos protection)
- ultimately might be really helpful for portability by requiring only a raw packet interface from the host OS
- much easier environment for tying in w/ SDN and QOS (which google seems to be pretty gung ho on)

there are probably a lot more. I looked a little at the repo, and they went for the most readable version that leans very heavily on the rich go runtime...which I think is a great call if you want to play around. messing with the linux network stack is a bit fussy and painful, there is a lot of .. stuff.. in there

In California at least, the property tax bill is already split into two components:

1.) Tax on land value

2.) Tax on improvements (building, landscaping)

so Georgism already exists somewhat.

An land value tax increase would need to be phased over decades to account for the building lifetimes which can span 50 or more years. Developers use multi-decode economic models for their developments based on assumptions including worst case property tax scenarios. But if that can change at moment's notice.

It also would need to account for zoning restrictions. If some parcels get re-developed as ultra high density housing but NIMBY's block similar developments in neighboring parcels, that could lead to lawsuits against the county.

In real time, yes.

But the user database should already have backups, importing those backups into an analysis server should be easy, and running queries like that on an analysis server should be easy.

Counting messages, or users with X messages, etc. is also largely a function of whether your backup/restore system works. But this time you do it in chunks.

@jonandersense Honestly, I prefer doing a 1 day onsite interview. The equation is different here. Here, the company is investing as much time in interviewing me as I am putting in them. It sounds fair.

But doing half a day coding exercise even before any technical interviewer in the company is ready to talk to me has a very imbalanced investment of time from both sides. I invest 4 hours in the company when the company invests none.

Although few have any experience operating at that scale, one can make comparisons.

I do find it curious that WhatsApp was operating at a much larger scale in terms of users and messages processed when they were sold to Facebook. And they had 55 employees.

So obviously you don't need 4,000 employees for the technology at this scale. I'm not sure what in the world the other 3,945 employees are doing though.
Definitely worth more research into possible mechanisms, but until studies account for the numerous contamination issues (lead, etc.) that many different home supplements carry, then there is going to be a mystery factor in so many of these studies sending all kinds of mixed signals.

It's not HN, It's just tech. I might offend folks but I don't care. I believe it's the new influx of over night programmers. Programming is now fashionable, pays well, everyone must learn to code. Take a class for 4 weeks and you are good to go. These folks then don't want to be subjected to the rigor of interviews. Then there's the set that have refused to keep up with the changes and believe that because they have been in the industry for a while and it worked out for them at one company they should get an easier pass.
