What's the expected battery life? I was hoping to see an average and maximum battery life described on the page, but couldn't find it.
oh thanks for the heads up. Sticking to minimalism we wanted the checkout to be a one-stop checkout on the landing page experience. we should build a plan B
That actually sounds like a very reasonable senario to not do so well in.

The problem that I have with those problems is, they always assume it's easy to answer after seeing the solution. But if you're working on them for the first time, it's a terrible environment. The minute that they stop asking you, as the canidate, are on a timeline to finish. (Also, to finish as well)

The answer to that item would be: (with scala)

> datasource.window(3,1).filter((a,b,c)=> a+b == c)

I mean if you knock it out of the park and know the internals of window.. then asking the bar raiser question is appropriate as a curiousity.

There are other problems as well: Those are the ones where they have an expected answer, response, and reiterate. I've seen that with tree problems. That's where they would low-key ask for the recursive version and then get you to say stackoverflow exception.
Thank you! I really hope it helps to connect you with some awesome people.
I can just imagine a room full of top 10% engineers/architects...No we need to do it like this...Well, no did you think of this obscure use case... what about performance? I think...should we...fast forward a year later and the company went belly up because everyone was trying to be best and piss on each other to prove who was top...top.

At least when middle managers do it they're only interested in who gets credit for the work so they leave the average tech guys alone long enough to get the work done.
Amnesty International Lament Harsh Spanish Austerity Measures
According to Merriam-Webster, 'entitlement' can mean:

1:
a : the state or condition of being entitled : right
b : a right to benefits specified especially by law or contract
2 : belief that one is deserving of or entitled to certain privileges
3 : a government program providing benefits to members of a specified group; also : funds supporting or distributed by such a program

Seems interesting.

I respect your view but disagree. I use pandas everyday for my job. I use spark. I use keras. I use scikit. I use all these APIs everyday for my job. I can't think of the last time I loaded a file using vanilla python. If it's a requirement for the job (which it wasn't, they showed me pandas code later) then I completely understand and would not be qualified nor would I want the job.

There's a few things going on here. First, there's a frustration from the interviewer who is obviously looking for the cookie-cutter answer to move things along. Second, there's a culture misalignment because they are looking for cookie cutters to do the job while I am not that. Third, they, along with OP, are obviously not a palindrome company nor a load-everything-to-lists company yet this is what they're testing. So again, culture misalignment.

At the end of the day, you are right, I self-selected myself out because I would not be happy at a place like such who are looking for cookie-cutter employees.
Am I reading something wrong or is the comparison really indicating that yarn is several times slower than npm?

The general conclusion and our experience has been the opposite and one of the big reasons why yarn exists.
>Pairing SNAP data for recipients with job opportunities is sort of genius.

If only that were meaningful. Able bodied single men on SNAP have 3 months of benefits unless they are working, more than 66% of SNAP recipients are working, the problem isn't job ads.

It's that most poor people are already have jobs and are underemployed or jobs are simply not available like for rural people.

Now, if they were pushing seriously catered and easy to understand online classes like money management, program awareness/advocacy, in demand job training, that might be something, but that's all expensive.

Posting low wage job ads is really cheap.
The "can they code test" for us has always been some variation of "fizz buzz."

Anybody should be able to do that. It's not a bad test, especially because of how well documented it is.

I agree there are terrible tests (why on earth would you have someone implement a search or sort? that's like rolling your own crypto, don't do it, don't bother learning how to do it unless it's your passion), but at the very least a simple programming test can indicate that the person can sit down at a fresh debian/windows/OSX install, and knows enough about their given language to be editing, compiling, and running code. This isn't even deploying, just able to have a functional dev environment and be able to create software.

A lot of compsci kids come out of school having worked in specialize VMs or only doing matlab stuff or, well, I don't know what they're getting up to over there but they aren't quite sure what the magic invocations are to get their Java thing running (do I need eclipse? err....) or C (how do I compile...?) or even sometimes Javascript stuff (how come it doesn't work when I double-click the html file?).

A simple fizzbuzz is a great filter for this sort of thing.
I imagine it will be oled or something similar. Any black pixels will simply be off. Not sure how a white pixel saves power though, since it needs all three RGB to make white.
Do those graphs show time in seconds? If so, I'm shocked by how slow yarn is...
Well, there are certain keywords that are typically left off (ie: "Callable") because they're so far in the weeds that they don't really make a big difference.

But "convertible debt" is a big deal. If Bloomberg (a financial newspaper) didn't use the word "convertible" to describe the debt, its probably not convertible.
That one passed the filter/reports, I think he was testing it a bit.
I would say that if you know the answers to 100 top coding questions (and understand them, a good interviewer will poke you to determine that) then you are a pretty good coder and you should be hired. Seems working as intended :)

For many tech companies where they get a lot more candidate applications than they have positions for, the goal of the interview process isn't to avoid losing good candidates, it's to not hire bad candidates.
It will involve minimalist features, like minimalist horsepower and screen size.

Quite minimal phone-only phones do exist, like Punkt MP 101, or more conventional phones, especially kids-oriented.
This is so opinionated.

What's so hard to understand about Bitcoin as an alternative to fiat currencies?

Yes, its real, its a store of value, and you can use it for payment if the seller is willing to accept Bitcoin.

And yes giving your private keys to some offshore exchange or invest all your money into some dubious altcoin is probably a bad idea.

Doesn't change the fact that Bitcoin's promise is very simple and clear and no part of this is a scam.
Absolutely true, but it isn't something that can be fixed.

The interviewer interviewing the interviewee is hilariously true. No interviewer could answer questions about my domain expertise. Just like I could never answer questions about theirs.

But they are in control and I am not, so there's no fighting it, just indifferent resignation to the situation, and attempting to sort through it.
I'm sold, when is it coming out?
That was part of the conclusion of the definitive piece of journalism about the crash: Air France had a habit of training pilots fresh up on a jumbo jet, accumulating the required flight hours in a certified simulator (the “company babies” referred to in the article). Part of the confusion was that under “normal law” (typical flight computer rules), that jet literally cannot stall due to pilot input. Thus they dismissed the stall warnings as erroneous because they assumed the flight data was unreliable in some way.

Indeed, once the more senior pilot (who flew light aircraft) was on the bridge, it didn’t take him long to figure out what was going on... and once he did his ability to think coherently broke down because he knew they were in a high speed stall and probably going to die any moment.

That depends on whether or not the job entails inventing new kinds of wheel.
I've seen it. Sadly it's just a nice thin interface over WebKit. I guess I could customize it to do somewhat what I want, but it would still run on WebKit. On Linux I can use alternative browsers like links -g, WebSurf or Dillo, but on mobile there are no such luxuries.

I would just like to have the target experience (and lightness) out of the box, but on all platforms.
Continuation local storage is a bit fuckie at the oddest times, but has really been a game changer for logging purposes and contextualizing errors within requests better.

Given that meaningful stack traces and proper context are by far the weakest part of asynchronous programming, I have hoped to see development on this front above any other aspect of the language.
thanks for the clarification, i read it as "its sad they cant do it, whats wrong with them?" kinda way, but what you said is probably what he/she meant

For an unconventional phone (=limited target group, risky) + the insurance + the work going into the app integration the price does not seem to be high at all, to me.
also sometimes it happens that pages shift one down and inside and outside swap, it ends up orribly, if the OP had problem reading the letters close to the center this could be the reason.
If the GH code is there, works, and is up to coding standards, why do you care about how the sausage was made? I'd look to see if the code is well-designed, organized, original, tested, etc. It's generally easy to see if the author of code knows how to decompose a problem into pieces. So..saying "we're looking for thought-process not the actual code" feels a bit disingenuous tbh.

Now: If you care about being able to collaborate on a tough problem with somebody, work on a problem neither of you has seen before together :)

It is not. The Privy Council example rebuts one of Greene Energy's arguments. The foundation of the decision is orthogonal to that rebuttal; it's simply that issuance of a patent franchise doesn't turn a public right into private property, and thus what the USPTO giveth, the USPTO can taketh away.

I got this information from my research in the 90s, and it’s definitely valid today. Your own citizenship does not change, but your children will be eligible to register as a British citizen through form MN1 Section 3(2)

> To qualify under this section, the parent who is British by descent must have been born to a parent who was a British citizen otherwise than by descent (or if that person died, then they would have been a British citizen otherwise than by descent but for their death).
The British citizen by descent parent must have lived in the UK (or, if the child was born on or after 21 May 2002, in a British overseas territory) for a continuous period of 3 years at any time before the child’s birth. During that period they should not have absences exceeding 270 days. The application must be made whilst the child is under 18 years of age.
The 3 year residence requirement for the parent does not need to be met if the child is stateless.

The heavy IO case is addressed by write-back characteristic of block devices. In the end, the cache is in host RAM regardless of the underlying device type.
Yeah, a requirement for an active internet connection would completely kill it for me, much more than the cost, so it's nice to hear that it can use local networking only. Also, as you mention, the fact that it's not very compatible with the mechanical switches seems like it would be annoying, though I suppose those can be replaced with wifi equivalents.

The bigger thing is that I just don't see huge benefits to smart lights, and potentially a lot of maintenance headache - I just don't really mind walking to the switch.

An automated blind opener that is set to slowly open automatically based on what I've set my phone alarm to that day, though, that I would pay a lot and put up with a lot of crap for.
The courts do. Nearly every invalidity decision by the PTAB is appealed to the Federal Circuit. Now, the standard of review from the Board is more deferential than from a typical court, but this is for a reason: The panels at the PTAB have both relevant technical expertise (that Art. III judges almost always lack) and focused legal expertise (your average Art. III judge rarely handles patent cases).

But the problem that concerns you (regulatory capture by lobbyists) is almost certainly prevented by Federal Circuit review of the PTAB's IPR decisions, which require the Board to support its decision by applying both the correct legal standards and based on 'substantial evidence' (which is a legal term of art).
Don't people get job offers anymore from someone they used to know that moved to another company and then like "hey I know this really great guy who works at XYZ, we should definitely get him here"? That is literally how every job I've moved to happened, except for the very first one right after being a student. That's the only job I ever remember having to "interview" for. The rest were just through established social connections by working in the tech industry. Surely if you have skills and work hard and other people know about this, they would be knocking at your door?

It's just weird to me that people go job hunting by "cold-calling" some random job advertisement where they don't know the company or anyone that works there. If I were hiring people, I'd go for people I personally have worked with, or been recommended by someone that I work with, waaaaay before hiring some random person that showed up at an interview.

It's usually a good deal to buy out an investor that isn't on board with your current direction. Otherwise, they'll be a nuisance going forward. Better to make room on your cap table for new investors that are on board and will want to put in money in later rounds.

You should get specific legal advice about refunding one investor but not the others depending on your documents and situation. You should tell the other investors what's going on.

And remember not to take money from this guy next time. Fickle investors suck.
Creating a New Business Model for Cartoonists (2014)
I don't believe the 14th Amendment was interpreted faithfully by the courts in the years after its passage. The result that we're still dealing with today is a totally toothless jurisprudence of the amendment's Privileges and Immunities Clause, and more recently, logically strained attempts to remedy that by an expansive reading of the Equal Protection Clause.

I don't see anything minimalist in the specs.

What I do see is the UI which looks good (at least on pictures), and, above all, looks consistent.

There would be definitely a market for such an UI. (It's more lucrative if sold with dedicated hardware, of course.)

Apple Security Update 2018-001
Originalism, at least as most jurists use it now, means textual-originalism. You don't look to what Congress intended the law to mean, but what the text on the page says in light of meanings prevailing at the time the text was written. Whatever the framers of the 14th amendment meant, they used the phrase "equal protection" and not "equivalent protection" or "similar protection."

A pure originalist might look to what the framers of the 14th amendment thought they were doing, but most people we would call originalists today would look to what the text of the 14th amendment meant at the time it was written.

> If you think that everyone before 1954 was interpreting the amendment incorrectly, that's equivalent to saying that the generally accepted meaning of the text changed

People often write things that mean something different than what the text says. (I'll point to FOSTA/SESTA as a contemporary example. 98% of the people who voted for it are thinking that its directed at sites actively promoting sex trafficking, but by its plain terms it applies to anyone "facilitating" sex trafficking, which is a much broader word.)
This is close to the inspiration for the One Laptop Per Child project, as far as I am aware. YLIP was a major philosophical impetus for it, and it was even named "Nell" after the main character in Diamond Age.

The Amazon Kindle was also codenamed "Fiona" after another main character, Fiona Hackworth.

Once I started turning application notifications off, I began to see much more clearly how manipulative they are. For instance, Facebook started emailing me, something I didn't realize I had to disable (up until then, I don't remember them mailing me anything). Twitter would pointlessly send a notification for "Person X and 42 others liked this tweet" and so on, clearly because I was opening their application less.

Don't know why you're getting downvoted. Much of the language I get from bigco people about why they are so selective is exactly this; it's almost a confession that once in, they are very bad at managing performance.
Good luck with the launch! I'll be keeping an eye out for the reviews.
Right. Don't "require" a GH, but use it if it's there!

Yes, some of the code may not be original, but unless the repo is a fork you can pretty easily see if the code is organized in a coherent way that shows the committer knew how to decompose a problem well. If they solved /every/ piece of the problem themselves, it may be a sign of a different problem (and also copy/pasting without citing source is also telling!)
Onstar et al would never, ever, ever let that happen.

Viper is the only one I know of that's similar aftermarket. But still, that's about as common now as aftermarket head units.

I think part of the problem is that the only interactions a lot of people have with trans people is with political advocacy,

I've personally been attacked a few times on HN as transphobic for trying to talk about women's issues and my personal problems as a woman in a man's world. My experience suggests the trans community frequently takes approaches that are openly and unnecessarily hostile.

I also spent 9 months being very supportive of a MTF trans youth met through HN whose life was in serious crisis at the time. Several other members of HN are well aware of the support I provided her. None of them ever stepped forward in my defense during the time when I was being repeatedly randomly attacked as supposedly transphobic.

The MTF individual in question was incredibly ugly to me during the months that I was supportive. Every single personal problem I had as a divorced single mom, problems very typical of divorced single moms, was dismissed as me being incompetent, not wanting success badly enough, etc.

I got badly burned for being sympathetic and supportive. I have reason to believe this individual still has the ear of powerful people and there is evidence they are still telling lies about me and dragging my name through the mud.

If my experience is at all representative, then your description of the problem space doesn't begin to capture the issue.
Yes I too think the font is too small.

Also the specscontainer does not contain all of the 'outline' image of the phone.
It's quite an interesting question. I agree it's impossible to impose, maybe even to create.

On university campus and in companies it's a natural occurence. You can have good or bad company culture but there will definitely be a company culture - which seems to be the problem at places like this. There simply isn't a culture.

The size is definitely part of the problem, 500 is way too many. On the other hand I also know people who share house with four other people but have no relation with them.

There was/is a code of conduct and lots of events at The Collective that tries to bond people together. Some people made friends and had their own little group they hung out with but it seemed like most went to a few events and then stopped going.

I might be pessimistic but I think it all comes down to a shared purpose - which you can't enforce unless people work, study or are obsessed with the same religion/politics/whatever.

And yes - it's definitely not designed by people who would eer live there.
Folks here might not be aware that when you get food stamps the balance appears on your receipt after each purchase. Calling a balance checking app "fighting poverty" is very much a misrepresentation.

If you have an iPhone, it seems like the best way to create a "dumb phone" is to set it up as a supervised[0] device, which allows you to pick and choose which apps are allowed on the phone, or to disable the app store altogether. It's intended for enterprise use, but seems like it would also be useful for self control.
