Hi there. Have you asked these recruiters why it's important you have an ATS optimised resume? I'd also be wary of recruiters offering you advice, so long as they're not using old black-hat tips around making your resume text white and stuffing the balls out of it.

I've written a few articles and videos you might find helpful here: www.markpearce.net/blog

Feel free to download whatever you think might help.

Good luck.

You get an initial rating by playing a number of tournament games against rated opponents.

The results of every rated game (played at tournaments etc) are reported to a rating body. Back when I played (low level) competitively, rating lists were published every couple of months in paper form; nowadays it's all online, of course.
> Grandmasters typically charge exorbitant price (at least $50/hour, I recall that Lev can charge $300/hour)

Sorry, I'm rather confused. How are these prices exorbitant for professional coaching? I can't imagine you can get a tennis coach for your kid for less than $50 per hour.

what if that advertising revenue goes towards offering even lower prices to customers? would that be an acceptable tradeoff? say, out of 1$ generated from ads on amazon.com, 80c set aside for offering lower prices, and 20c for running costs etc? I don't know if that's the case, just curious if it'd be OK if that was the case.

Thank you for the insightful response.

I'll never ever touch upon these areas, so I still hold Ruby to a high regard. It simply is fun.
I am a Norwegian and I know people who have worked under American style easy firing laws. From what they have told it is not a very good model. It causes resentment and disloyalty towards the company. People say they are much more loyal to a Norwegian company, because they feel it is loyalty both ways. In American companies, people tend to give less shit about their company because they know the company is never there to have their back.

I don't think it is without reason that when American companies fire people, they are not allowed to be around and get all their stuff in a box to not sabotage the company. Such practice is evidence of very weak mutual respect, trust and loyalty.

Ultimately that is a bad way of running an economy. You incur very high transaction costs in business when trust levels are low. I've seen this myself when American companies have been involved in buying Norwegian companies. American companies are completely overdoing it when it comes do due diligence, writing contracts and involving lawyers. This represents a huge unnecessary cost.

This experience is not unknown to others as well. You can read about Japanese experience with American work life. They are also used to a model with high degrees of loyalty. I read about a Japanese company trying to run the Japanese way in the US. They hired people for modest salary because they used lots of money on training to get very skilled employees. The problem was that this model was impossible in the US, because as soon as employees got the skills they switched to a higher paid company, which offered no training. The Japanese company did not understand how to build skills in the US. And rightly so. That is a big problem in the US. A huge part of the population have very low skilled jobs because it is very hard to raise the skill level of employees in the US, when you don't have a high chance of retaining those workers.

Of course there are pros and cons to both approaches. Norwegian and Japanese companies are more likely to keep unproductive workers as you say. But seen from a holistic view, for society as a whole that must be a better approach than producing lots of homeless people, or people living off welfare.

As an Android user I am not sure whether to believe this tired story about how new iOS releases slow down the phone and make you 'have to' upgrade to a new device. I am sure there have been historical precedents where Apple have moved e.g. from 32 to 64 bit and made a tranche of older devices practically unusable. But is this really the situation today?

I think that there will always be those that grumble about progress, e.g. people that complained 'Win 7 slower than Vista', so it is hard to tell. But have Apple upgraded things so that the iphone 6 feels slow and users of the device feel compelled to upgrade? Not wishing to start an opinion based flamewar but, as an Android user seeing all as well in Apple land, I would like to know if there really is a performance issue on iOS 11 / iphone 6.

>> If we get to the point of having a human connectome to analyze-- or the kind of access to neural topology that a neural lace would provide-- could an optimizer generate an image of static that human would mistake for the president of the United States?

Probably not, because our brain doesn't seem to work like Artificial Neural Networks do. Most notably, we learn to identify novel objects after only seeing a single example of them while ANNs may require many thousands of examples. We don't seem to learn to identify individual pixels, either (though what exactly our brain does when we learn to identify objects from their images is anyone's guess).

Digital images are also not a very good analogy for what human eyes see: our vision doesn't have "pixels" and we don't even need images to be particularly clear to identify them with good accuracy (we can still tell what things are up to a point, even in the dark, when it rains, when our visual field is occluded etc).

Generally, you can't expect the human brain to work like an ANN. Like others have said before [1], the "neural network" analogy is not a very good one. It often serves only to create confusion about the capabilities of ANNs and the human brain.

Yann LeCun: My least favorite description is, “It works just like the brain.”
I don’t like people saying this because, while Deep Learning gets an inspiration
from biology, it’s very, very far from what the brain actually does. And describing
it like the brain gives a bit of the aura of magic to it, which is dangerous. It
leads to hype; people claim things that are not true. AI has gone through a number
of AI winters because people claimed things they couldn’t deliver.

Thanks for the link. CDC's reference 11 seems particularly relevant[1], although the $170 billion measure is not totally attributable to the government: from Table 3, more like $108.4 bil between Medicare ($45.0 bil), Medicaid ($39.6 bil), and other federal programs ($23.8 bil; e.g. Tricare, VA health benefits, etc.). The paper's data set and method of extrapolating portions of healthcare expenditures attributable to smoking does raise an eyebrow at first glance, but I've admittedly not dived deep enough.

EDIT:
> A major way (the only way?) to curb tobacco usage is to simply increase taxes on tobacco usage...

If by curb you mean reducing the number of new adopters proportional to overall population, I agree and would support such a measure. As a former smoker and current smokeless tobacco user myself, I'd say those of us who fell for the trap are fucked six ways from Sunday; as much as I'd like to quit, my mind and body are way too dependent on nicotine to function effectively on a day-to-day basis. I'd need roughly 3 months of leave and a lot of mindless distractions to drop the habit. A significant increase in per-unit cost for no apparent reason (like 2-3x overnight) would probably work too...like a proverbial slap to the face that would incite just enough outrage on the merits to serve as an effective distraction, hopefully for long enough to allow physiological dependencies to permanently fade.

because in borg land, everything apart from the binary is controlled by the scheduler.

why is that good? because it means that the thing that knows about resource utilisation has control of what resources it give out. quite patch on the farm? give the low priority jobs more memory/cpu.

You also have to remember that borg is part of the secret sauce that makes google tick. Having a single interface to a smart, efficient, fast and scalable scheduler is invaluable at scale.

Kebernetes is nice, but its nowhere near as advanced or fully featured as slurm/gridengine/tractor etc. its also not that efficient or fast. (I worked in VFX with various schedulers some were able to dispatch 100k execution instructions a second)

Digital Apartheid
You seem to misunderstand. These things don't exist in Nordic countries because companies decided to be nice. They exist because large powerful unions and cooperative governments pushed them to it.

You can't sit back and wait for companies to behave. You got to push for political change in your country. Strong unions combined with laws protecting them is one way of making sure companies play by the rules.

I can tell the same story about foreign workers in Norway. We got lots of polish and other eastern European workers to the Norwegian construction industry.

These workers were treated much worse than Norwegian workers because they 1) didn't know their rights 2) were not union members. After concerted efforts by the Norwegian unions to inform eastern European workers, create information material in polish etc, then conditions started improving a lot.

It is not an accident that Nordic workplaces are quite nice and the unionization rate is close to 80%.

Proportional representation can do away with geographic districts and refuse to recognise political parties (though I don't know of country with proportional representation that does both).

The US, Canada, France, the UK, Australia, Japan, the Republic of (South) Korea, Mexico and India are notable in lacking proportional representation for elections to their main legislative chambers. Most countries do use proportional representation, but I was guessing you weren't commenting from one of them, because satisfaction with democracy is higher where it is used.

How would you implement your system in countries that don't already have proportional representation without 1st implementing proportional representation?
What you are asking for--somehow being immune to China deciding to ban the entire Internet--is an apology for China's behavior and fundamentally, plain and simple.

After all, what is the alternative? In the case of Google, the other option you seem to think is reasonable is for them to censor themselves... but that is a loss... that is in fact the primary loss condition.

That said, was Google leaving China the same kind of win for the Internet as what I am even talking about? No, because Google is but one company. My win condition is "China is forced to block some incredibly large percentage of the entire Western Internet", not "they block us" or "they block a few websites".

Google gave up long before I would say they won: their next step should have been to start doing exactly what we are now doing, shipping it as part of Google Chrome, and figuring out ways to distribute copies of the software in China.

There is a big difference between "celebrating being banned" and "celebrating your opponent being forced to make the difficult decision between salting their own earth to keep you from invading or accepting defeat".

This is all particularly the case given that my argument is rather consistent here that that won't happen: that China can't do that, as that is just too drastic of a move and it will cost them the support of businesses, citizens, and governments.

As for your final paragraph, every single decision made about Cydia was made within this moral framework... one which you do not support. You either should not be thanking me for what I did while working on it if you fundamentally refuse to support my methods and goals.

Honestly: it sounds like you would have preferred a world where I built a centralized Cydia and allowed Apple's censors access to the catalog... that completely misses the point of Cydia, so I don't know what you possibly wanted. With this attitude I not only don't feel the need to have you support Orchid, I would like to hand you back your false gratitude for Cydia :(.
I'd argue that the bigger issue is worn out flash memory. Even with TRIM (4.3+), the chips grinds to a halt after a few years of constant writing.

These days it's not as big of an issue due to most higher end phones having bigger memories (with more cells to wear out).
I think people get fooled and do small mistakes all the time but we easily ignore them because it's corrected by other senses. Like you thought your phone screen turned itself on in your side vision but you just left your credit card or something on top of the screen.

You can cover someones eyes obstruct visual system entirely, and you'll be fooled for a second until you realize it's probably just your friend because you can feel their hands. Did you fool your friend's visual system? Or does it need to be fooled forever to say you fooled the visual system?

So the visual system on its own is not enough as we have many other senses that you'd need to fool in order to fool you entirely.

I think optical illusions is a great way to fool the visual system only, but it doesn't fool you. (all your senses) There are magic tricks for that sort of thing, but even then we know it's just a trick.

As raverbashing pointed out our visual system is more than just a 2d grid of points with a certain color, so obviously that is easier to fool.

When I saw the 32x32 image of the frog with the pixels I wasn't even sure what it was for a few seconds. But I had context, like I know these images are probably things that are easily classified, so it's gotta be some common animal, airplane, car, house, etc. I also knew that I was supposed to ignore the pixels.

If you present the frog image with pixels to people on the street and tell them to classify the image, I'm sure many of them will get it wrong if they are given less than 2 seconds to look at it. More so when they're focused on something completely irrelevant.

You're ignoring my actual points to just restate your conclusion. Money you use to buy properties doesn't pay sales tax, money you use to pass on to your heirs doesn't pay sales tax, money you get to save because you have surplus only pays sales tax after you've gotten your initial capital out multiple times so the sales tax on the initial income is 0.

But lets classify that investment gain as income as well and ignore that bit. Do you actually have any doubt that poor people spend a higher percentage of their yearly income on things where sales tax applies? That they buy less properties, invest less and then pass on less of a percentage of their lifetime earnings to their children?

Ah yes, but I mean there are two types of temporal integration

One is the short-timed "persistence of vision" one

The other is observing a scene multiple times by slightly different angles and positions

If some weird arrangement causes an illusion, changing the position slightly usually fixes that

Also, human data is noisy, I guess augmentation strategies might want to consider that as well
“Usefulness” is not a metric that can measured or sought in isolation. Usefulness needs an actor trying to perform an action desiring a result.

When OP says something failed because it isn’t useful, they are deliberately ignoring the subject and object of the equation.

When the article says that influencers didn’t glom on to Spectacles, they are making a statement about influencers not finding it useful but if you read the parent comment, this observation is useless because it obfuscates the true problem - that Spectacles is “useless”.

That's a good question; I can look at that and say it's not a dog, but it is a deliberate representation of a dog. It doesn't confuse me into thinking it is a dog. Do the NNs differentiate between an actual object and a representation of an object? Given that their input is (I understand) just a 2D image, I could imagine the question itself makes no sense in the context of a NN. To an NN, a picture of a dog is a dog.

I had a similar problem after installing iOS 11 on my iPhone (7 Plus). The battery life was so bad, I was having to charge multiple times per day.

I installed the public beta of 11.1 out of frustration, and I'm pleased to say it's fixed the problem. At this point I feel like the battery life is back to "normal" (iOS 10 levels).
On Windows Phone the story was the same. Upgrade from 8 to 8.1 made the phone noticeably slower, another upgrade to 10 made it almost unusable. So this is not exclusive to Apple.

It is probably that Android users usually do not receive updates, so they can't complain that updates made their phones slower.

Set an alarm half an hour before your target sleep time. When the alarm goes off, save/shutdown all tech. Start bedtime routine.

Also protip to actually make this work, be quick as shit in reacting to the alarm with your save/shutdown of programs. Don't give your brain/self a chance to talk itself into "just one more article" or "Just till this articles done" If its that interesting/important, you'll come back to it the next day and finish it. If its lost to the ether, you probably didn't need it anyway. Get a phone that can auto-on for alarms, turn that badboy off when you go to sleep (or use scheduler to turn off).
