The fact that alcoholic beverages do not (in the US) require ingredient labels is something I've long regarded as suspicious.
The fact that they are interviewing with a particular company is private information; you have no right to make that public.

Also of note is that the article claims that "if I didn’t do my backdoor checks I would have never uncovered the Catfish", but then later states the "fake manager [was] one out of the two people that I knew from Acme Corp". Had she waited 'til that point, she would have discovered the lie without sharing the information with people who don't (ostensibly--as they are listed on the reference) already know it and without relying on woolly information ("no one has heard of him" does not sound like solid proof that he never worked there, particularly if it's a large company).
One of the coffee shops I frequent has had big Superb Owl events every year for the last few. It's quite something.

It positions itself as the anti-bar.
Of course not. The use of pre-training on a large unlabeled corpus and subsequent fine-tuning is what the paper is about. It is stated repeatedly in the paper and the post.

It is totally correct and in no way misleading to say we need only 100 labeled examples. Anyone can get similar results on their own datasets without even needing to train their own wikitext model, since we've made the pre-trained model available.

(BTW, I see you work at a company that sells something that claims to "categorize SKUs to a standard taxonomy using neural networks." This seems like something you maybe could have mentioned.)
Oh I agree, but was just trying to mitigate the harshness with a little good feeling. We all have enough to point fingers at ourselves about.
Back in the early 90s, I learned the vi movement keys through hunt(6) from the BSD Games collection. Can't find a good link for the package, but here is the man page: https://www.unix.com/man-page/bsd/6/hunt/
>someone who apparently otherwise would have been a great candidate

Dishonesty is an intolerable trait. This person clearly wasn't a great candidate. Lying at work is just about the only thing I'll always fire somebody for.
With a tower of MOVEM.L instructions and enough scratch registers you could get within a percent or two of theoretical bus speed for moving aligned data around. The ST used this in spots, and the memory manager and toolbox of the Macintosh used MOVEM extensively.
Yeah, that's not how the law works, sorry about that. Every human has rights that cannot simply be waived because a website says so.

Everyone has a right to privacy, and that's what the GDPR is about ensuring for EU subjects. Your thinking is extinct and I strongly suggest changing it, or fading away like everyone else who feels the same way.
Coils emit a relatively high-frequency sound, so your best bet is a case with thick panels, that’s fairly well enclosed, and has some acoustic dampening.

Most cases made today don’t have any significant dampening material. It’s pretty trivial to add some to the panels without significantly affecting cooling capacity.
I can easily tell the difference between Pepsi and Coke. I don't have a strong preference for either. I have maybe 10 sodas/year.
i guess it heavily depends on the position you're interested in. A gameplay programmer might be expected to like games, on the other hand, if you're writing an asset handling system, network stuff, rendering, ..... It really doesn't matter. I may be in a similar situation, loving the challenges one encounters while writing games, yet not really into games themselves.
Not having a LI profile will also be interpreted in their own way when it comes to the decision if they should hire you or not.
> When buying a domain you do so in ICANN's jurisdiction, under their terms.

Contract doesn't trump law, and ICANN isn't a supernation that excludes actual sovereigns from governing behavior relating to it.

> And if that isn't enough, ICANN can fix this without compromise. One mass email. "Respond expressly allowing us to publish your PII, or lose your domain."

No, it can't, IIRC, because GDPR specifically excludes this kind of “agree or no service” from qualifying as effective consent.
Aha! I don't know a whole lot about winemaking, but I was suspicious of that thread in the article—it reminded me of beer and bread made with wild yeasts.

They absolutely should not have conflated that with the processing issues. -.-
It's not just unethical, it's impractical, and the same reason applies to your take-home tests: if the first thing your employer asks you to do is something you want to outsource, what makes you think the tenth thing they ask you to do will be better?

It's fair to be annoyed when hiring managers shift costs of filtering over to candidates. If it really bothers you, might be a sign to avoid that company culture entirely.
This specific point got me as well: I can't really get behind a company - especially a CDN company - telling people to break the specific because "no browsers don't do anything with it." That is, honestly, really bad advice and I can't take any of their other points seriously.
I had the same experience with 6809E as a teenager. I have warm feelings toward Motorola to this day.
> However, I am glad that I caught it early before we hired him. If we had hired him, tough to say what could have happened. Maybe he would have been great and our best performing AE. Maybe he wouldn’t have even known how to log into Salesforce.

When you make it to the top by lying, you're considered a winner:

> "I lied to him all the way to the airport," Cohn told Gladwell. "When he said, 'Do you know what an option is?' I said, 'Of course I do, I know everything, I can do anything for you.' Basically by the time we got out of the taxi, I had his number. He said, 'Call me Monday.' I called him Monday, flew back to New York Tuesday or Wednesday, had an interview, and started working the next Monday.

I know there are dozens of other examples, because I hear people talk about how they had to lie to get their first break all the damn time, from people who are now very successful.
Less than 25 lines isn't so great when you have to load in a separate library or two.
Such flavors in beer are often far more pronounced than in wine. The bananas and cloves thing is not subtle, and a lot of the chemicals involved are actually the same, so it's no surprise the taste is there.

In wine, the words for flavors are often not meant to be exact. Because there _are_ no direct analogues to the flavors. So you have to try to communicate using words people do know. And if that turns inward and jargony, that's simply how language functions in any community.

It should be no surprise that people experience flavors differently, so of course ratings will vary and descriptions will contradict each other. If apples or hamburgers or spring water were reviewed with the detail and scrutiny that wine is, you'd get the same results. But, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to communicate with each other about the experience of drinking the wine. Sure, it's almost entirely subjective. No wine expert will disagree with that.
I've worked on a lot of cross browser bugs since IE5, never seen one created by any header or created by omitting http headers. Honestly your comment is just nonsense.
That seems to be a misrepresentation (not a lie per se?) of Horseshoe Theory? Those of us at the heel don't support world conquest. That is very much a toe thing. I would countenance a great deal of redistribution in exchange for a great deal less conquest.
STM32 unit cost is lower than most AVRs. And dev is just C as well. Also NXP do Cortex M0 parts for $0.45!

AVRs are pretty hard to use when you hit one of the numerous hardware and peripheral walls. synchronous timers are killing me this week which lead me to switch to a PIC part.
I'm not sure that this is inherent to Stirling engines, or just the past engineering implementations. For one thing, unlike internal combustion engines, there is no need to contain an explosion (otto cycle) or flame front (diesel) so the pistons and cylinder walls can be made of lighter materials and don't need lubricant filters. In fact self lubricating graphite pistons are often used modern Stirling engines. Secondly a higher efficiency implies that more power is extracted from the fuel which indicates that the combined fuel tank and engine can be smaller and that more power will be put to doing work. Lastly, a Stirling engine usually falls short in torque, and that can be compensated for with a hybrid system that utilizes electric motors for instantaneous changes speed, where added torque is required.
> Anyway, some great sentences in this book. Not sure how it will stand up over time but was worth a couple hours of my time.

I'm not familiar with Ryan Holiday's work, but this almost sounds like a backhanded compliment, especially when you consider how long (and much work) it takes to write a passable book.

It's no longer about Alexandra's book; it's about Ryan's tight schedule.
whois guard is a joke so i welcome this
Is this offer just for the OP, or for everyone? Disregard my email if it was meant only for the OP.
After having purchased an AMD GPU, they would have to pay me for me to buy anything from AMD ever again.
If you're antisocial, how will references know or remember you, and how will you remember who to cite as references?
disclaimer: I work for a CDN, but am not representing them with this comment

Right, but this is talking about GLOBAL capacity, not at a single datacenter. The CDN I work for has over 49tbps, and we wouldn't claim to be doing 10% of all HTTP traffic:

https://images.verizondigitalmedia.com/2015/12/VDMS_NetworkM...

Plus, capacity is always going to be greater than actual throughput, both for reliability reasons and traffic patterns (i.e. you need enough capacity for your peak traffic in a datacenter, not the average)

I really doubt the 10% claim.
Just curious, what would a proxy do with such a header?
When I see comments like this I wonder if some people are just as blind to some tastes as I am in sight. (EDIT: I'm not saying I've got great sense of taste/smell, I'm just guessing I'm somewhere in the bell curve with enough people to the left for this to be noticeable. I could be in 30th lower centile for all I know.)

I understand that price does not correlate to taste or even quality, but being told by people that they can't differentiate between Coke and Pepsi, different Milk brands, different cheeses or different wines is as alien to me as tritanopia.

I've had people find it very surprising that I could recognize which of the two glasses containing different wines were which, but unless you have very diminished sense of taste/smell it should be obvious as long as you have already tried both that day. (Of course, I could not have recognized what each were, had the possibilities reduced to a handful of bottles.)

The reason I'm writing this is because even though I cannot relate, I can and must acknowledge that people have different sensory experiences to myself.
I never even knew this show existed, and was still aware of the word and its meaning. (I mean, not at first. There was a moment when someone had to explain it to me.)

But all of this is irrelevant to the main point: Language is dynamic.
they wouldn't of course, but their competitors aren't doing this.

unless you can point me to the company that actually makes.. say dell's (or whoever's) laptops.
> No, it can't, IIRC, because GDPR specifically excludes this kind of “agree or no service” from qualifying as effective consent.

It would also set the rather terrible precedent that ICANN can add terms after the fact.
I just experienced this with a contractor. I have never seen him do anything himself. I strongly suspect he is sending his work somewhere else.
"Trust your gut" slides into "culture fit" slides into "I'm not sure someone who looks/talks like that could really do what they say they do" and "This person looks like someone who I'd expect could do the job".
Haha thanks that is why I missed it.
The greenland is too far from Rome. The lead levels could be from anywhere on earth.
I am a swede, so I don't really know how tourist do it. But I just use my debit card for almost everything. For buses/trains/taxis I use cards/or the their app which will take cards. For the random $4 street vendor hotdog we use swish (https://www.getswish.se/).
Am I the only one who was really distracted by the use of the term Catfish in every other sentence?

I've heard the term and I know there was a film called Catfish a few years about someone who created a fake identity online but I didn't realize it was such a common term.

How is a catfish different from a fraud?
And on the flip side bear in mind that some of us were 10-15yo on IRC back in the day. Don't fault those of us too hard.
Being condescending and saying "Google it" isn't helpful. If you don't know enough about a topic to help someone, you have no room to talk down to them.
There's no code. If they say they were great, they were possibly great. There are so many reasons for a terse confirmation of employment. Foremost would be that you're talking to HR and they're following a fixed process. A process that exists for a reason: Even a positive review with good intentions could be framed as injurious to the candidate's prospects.
Hmm, that's a pretty serious writeup about types of speculation for something that isn't exactly off the wall here. If people thought, "there's no takeaway here" and then downvoted, as you said, that goes against the spirit of open-minded discussion. They should simply ask more questions or go find something to upvote.

If there exist other life forms with consciousness, the question of whether they share consciousness in the form of shared archetype is not a question with no takeaways. It's important stuff to consider! The implication could be that a life form found on Earth is in some way multi-planetary, for example, and part of a wider consciousness-granting bio-system.
You can't export/import "Folders" of bookmarks.

For me, amongst other things, there's no easy way to e.g. share a folder of useful bookmarklets.

Or, more generally, perhaps e.g. sharing a folder of bookmarks pertaining to a research project.

Lame.

P.S. Two decades ago, Kaylon's Powermarks was -- and remains -- the best bookmark manager I ever ran across. Third party app that was cross-browser and integrated itself via interfaces that gradually got killed off.

Lightning fast, handling thousands of bookmarks, with pretty good automatic, override-able tagging that fed a very effective search facility producing immediate, progressive results as one continued to type their query string.

Pretty much, you could just bookmark something, then find it a week or a month or more later with a couple of seconds' thinking and typing. Even if you had a then somewhat vague notion or memory, you usually immediately found what you half-remembered.
Uh, yes. Or do you mean in wine?

Probably not something everyone would agree was "chocolatey", but the point is that's the aroma or taste the reviewer identifies. If you or I can't detect it, that doesn't mean they were wrong. Maybe we would describe the same flavor or aroma differently. Or maybe our senses would not detect the same chemical they are detecting. Everyone's sense of taste and smell is different.
You contradict yourself.

I don't know a potential employer. Why would I respect them to start? I have expectations, they have expectations and we try to meet in the middle. That's society.
Why change the whole helmet , have crumple zones on front top and bottom and swap those parts out

This would probably be done alot the first half, but time management is too important to stop play for this kind of thing in the last couple of minutes
Hi atxhx, thx for the plug!

So her mouse squeaks? That’s adorable!
That sounds like the type of complaints that the older generation have had about the younger generation for centuries. "Kids these days aren't doing things for the right reasons anymore" is a common sentiment that has been traced back to literally ancient times.

"Our youth have an insatiable desire for wealth; they have bad manners and atrocious customs..." - Plato

I feel like it's more likely that the older generation gets jaded (as happens to all generations). Facebook, Google, and other massive multinational corporations may be modern-day ills, but they don't represent some new, soulless trend (remember trust-busting around 1900?). They're just old perspectives on a new industry.
I'm sure people here will continue to crap all over JS while getting sanctimonious whenever PHP's foibles come up. So, no worries there.
LinkedIn isn't public. It is inaccessible to people like me who haven't accepted the LinkedIn Terms of Service. The formerly porous auth wall has recently been made tighter.

I wonder how this affects whatever California law you were referencing? (Honest question. I have no idea as to the answer.)
The double standard judgements here are disappointing =/

Oh, you're absolutely right! Of course more ethical or natural wine costs more to produce and present appealingly. You're absolutely, completely, 100% correct on every point.

I might be a bit skeptical that it costs $3-4 a glass more, however. I wonder if it's not at least somewhat about having an aspirational label that can be applied to justify a significant upcharge.
That's 500 a day, 7 days a week, folks:

"With production now running all week over 500 per day would add up to over 3,500 Model 3 vehicles per week."

"Only a few weeks ago, Musk confirmed that Tesla was producing just over 2,000 Model 3 vehicles per week, but he also said that they have been working through some important bottlenecks that could result in significant production increases."
Nice article.
About two years ago I wanted to make my pc completely silent as well. It turned out that the cheapest solution for me was to put the pc in another room that I don't sit in and put long hdmi + USB cables through the wall. I also soldered on a longer cable with a power button so I can start the pc from my room. The only downside for me is that I had to run cables along my walls through a conduit but I think in total I paid less than 40€.
It is the same in Washington state, and I suspect most other states also make this information available. I believe it is required because the taxing authority data is considered public information.
It can’t be heard from 1cm away

I doubt that. A while back I removed all of the moving parts from an old 486 and netbooted it, only to find out I could actually hear the network card making very faint screeching noises whenever there was network activity. You've probably heard the same effect on a much larger scale, at much lower frequency, when you hear the 60Hz hum of a "silent" transformer.
No, but a smartphone is not a computer.

Smartphones are capable of computing and are sometimes very powerful, but the analogy is totally out of wack in my opinion.

If you can live without using an actual computer, it means you don't really need computers. You can check your email and browser the web on a Kindle, on your TV, or even your car.

Everything is a computer, then.

I think a computer is a productivity tool. Smartphones (and I'd definitely say tablets, too) are to consume content, not produce it. Some companies (most notably Apple I think) believe otherwise, but I think they'll have to come to realize that smartphones and tablets are horrible to produce most kinds of content.
I actually had to look into this recently.

The recent ones are less "textbook." The older ones are FILLED with information with graphics here and there but it's mostly text. The recent ones are very graphical so I would assume it has less total information. With that said, it's possible that there are techniques for learning that were not considered in the older texts.

It is possible to look at samples online for you to compare if you want to see the difference. I do recommend getting the book if you decide to use it but that's just a personal preference.
Well I mean, friend or no, you wouldn't have exactly been able to provide a glowing review. Of course, you can be slightly more candid with a friend.

Or did the candidate provide fake contact info for 'you' ?
I can hear a high pitched whine emitted from most electronics. Granted for smartphones the display or transceiver has to be powered up and it has to be a quiet room with no white noise. It's a lot better than it used to be, I knew I was getting a call or text from my old Nokia 5160 before it did just from the whine.
I don't really see that it is that bad compared to what happens now. You have people doing it currently with all their subjective biases (such as race and class). Maybe this just makes it cheaper and maybe more effective as the tech matures. Surely accuracy concerns can be addressed by combining multiple data sources (e.g. looks like someone dodgy, is somewhere strange, doing something strange, just the way a police officer would rationalize investigating further).
I make a loquat seed liqueur that takes about two years to finish. The first several months are spent in contact with the seeds, citrus zest, vanilla bean, and other elements, then it is bottled and left to sit for at least another year.

If you were to taste it right before bottling, you would think it less drinkable than pine-sol. After the appropriate amount of time, however, it becomes a delicious, amaretto-like dessert drink. It really is fascinating how much it changes over time.
> The question is whether you can taste wine differences without temperature differences

Temperature differences greatly affect the taste, so what's the purpose of that test?
Everyone lies, because the interviewing process itself is a fucking joke, ESPECIALLY in the Bay Area.

If the person can answer all my questions and they have a good attitude, I honestly don't give a shit what got them to that point.

If someone doesn't work out, you can fire them. Yes it's "exhausting", maybe if it's so difficult to manage or run a business you should find a different role for yourself.

I really enjoy hiring personally. I treat it like a two way street instead of "I'm the big boss man with all the power". I remember how I was recruited out of college, I show that same interest in the employee as I want them to show in their career (note, not my company, I'm 100% okay with someone just coming in and doing a good job, not being in fucking love with my product, industry or anything else all these bullshit companies seem to offer).
> True, but this doesn't require AI drones.

You're right. They require bombs and bullets. Both have a far higher chance of collateral damage than using drones. But apparently everyone has deemed them more acceptable than possible alternatives, so we use them.

> Name one terrorist attack anywhere in the world in the last 20 years, therefore including 9/11, that could have been stopped by a swarm of AI drones.

You've given me a false choice. Namely that only defending against terrorist attacks is the only legitimate purpose. Many others probably exist too.

Last time I checked urban warfare was a fairly dicey situation for military personnel. Anything that can navigate, map, and neutralize enemy hostiles in a building, means less death rates for our soldiers.
Yeah, seems like this is the primary loophole in GDPR. Find ways to make data “necessary” for providing the product to the user.

Maybe one day a prosecutor will use a database schema as evidence of GDPR violations...
