I believe it is a result of changes described here (the post is about thinLTO but it explains parallel codegen after the TOML config example): https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/help-test-out-thinlto/6017

In order to parallelize the build process at the rustc-llvm codegen boundary, Cargo has to implement some orchestration between compiler processes (using jobserver-rs [1]) so that 10 rustc processes didn't all create 10 threads and codegen units each and blow up the system. I'm guessing that memory quotas are a part of that implementation.

Nope, we don't have AIs capable of doing that yet. Perhaps someday. But we can't make decisions based on hypothetical future technology.
Not a huge chance of that occurring though. Not that many people do that and have the appropriate tax issue for 51k or more...
> Why am I spending my life working hard so someone else gets richer?

Personally, "because it allows me to be rich enough that I don't have to work as hard as I might otherwise have to" is the answer here.

Unfortunately for many, "why do I have to work so hard" is answered by any of a number of worse answers, not the least of which might be "because life handed me a raw deal" or "because I otherwise spent time that could have been spent improving my skills".

> Instead of redistributing wealth, a practice that can be overturned any time, I advocate for the intentional construction of productive machinery owned by the people.

Public ownership of means of production is as easily overturned (doing so is called “privatization”) as wealth redistribution; in fact, it's been done many times in places that had established public ownership of some or all of the means of production. So, your objection to redistribution seems to apply at least as strongly to your alternative.

I once had him pass by me at some party event I accidentally walked by. The only way to describe him was BIG in upper case letters and exclamation marks. The only person I personally saw up close and was of similarly impressive stature was Lennox Lewis, the heavyweight boxing champion.
That is the book that the repo linked in the OP references.
Just the first impression when I read "Software developer's life manual". I've never really liked the idea of pursuing a "career" as a software developer, so I'm glad the book talks about some alternatives.
Me too. I’m in a couple of them and a lot of people have told me they found them enjoyable and learned more about free software as a result.
I have no idea of the actual challenge, but given the missile itself is unmanned, a human would less be likely to escape if he is under pressure, stressed, or tired than an AI.

Here the AI and human would have access to the same data to make a decision and would be able to equally control the plane's movements. Surely the AI is going to out-perform the human in this task.

> This sounds like a recipe for a room full of dull clones

Can you explain why? I've found that a standardized interview with asking the same questions to each candidate helps me better see the differences between candidates.

Over the years I've tried on a lot of different interviewing processes, and what the article described is pretty close to what I've ended up with as producing the best results.
What's the alternative? Entrepreneurship? Last I've heard it's 1% doing what you want, and 99% dealing with incidental nonsense - sales, hiring, managing, paperwork, compliance, marketing, etc.
About $120K~$150K depending on the host country and their particular income tax scheme. Which is not a crap salary, but it's certainly not over the moon Fortune 500 executive comp either. ($50K is about 1/3 of $150K, which is about what a W2 employee would pay - 1099 folks would pay a bit more)

There's supposed to be a deduction applied to income taxes paid to your host country - up to a cap. There are two intersecting curves related to host-country taxes paid and US income taxes owed minus the exempted part, which I'm not going to describe here, but through key-entry error or whatever bureaucratic things that happen in paper-processing-office, it is not uncommon to get a bill on a year for about that amount. IF their response to your filing in a year (say 2012) gets lost in the mail and IF the same thing happens the following year - you can owe $100K (on paper - even though mistaken), and not even know it.
Also I think FED constantly creates money by lending to commercial banks. It could lend less to reduce money supply when government issues money to fund basic income.

This way same amount of money would get injected into the economy. Just not into the pockets of borrowers, but directly into consumers.

> Building more fourth-generation aircraft would be a waste because they're simply to longer survivable.

I don't agree. The Su-27, which is regarded as a genuine threat to 5th generation planes has been in service since the late 1970s. Modern F-16s have little in common with the first ones that saw service. Boeing has been putting money into F-15s and F/A-18s with stealth capability. Fourth generation aircraft are still survivable and they're still being developed on the field.

There's even a school of thought that suggests that when your enemy is a bunch of dudes with death wishes and pick up trucks, lower tech is an advantage. In this kind of combat, the F-35 is at a particular disadvantage. Its cannon may not be able to achieve the accuracy needed for close air support, the helmets' signal clutter is such that an F-35 is actually a danger, and even more fun, not one model of the F-35 can carry more than 220 rounds of ammunition. In comparison, the A-10 carries about 1,100 rounds. In practice, this means that whereas an A-10 could make 10-20 attack passes, an F-35 will top out at 2-4...

Point being, it might not be a very good remaining option and fourth gen aircraft are better in important ways. With some luck, the testing process will solve all of these problems, though some seem incurable.

Of the two or three dozen Americans I have met working overseas for an extended period over the last 25-or-so years, I don't think I know of one that hasn't had it happen at least once... Most end up hiring KPMG (or some such firm -- which is not cheap) to end up doing the filings and follow-up, just so it never (ever) falls through the cracks again...

EDIT: There are about 5M Americans working overseas. At an error rate (of this type) of about 5% (anecdotally, I'd put it certainly above 3% and usually (most years) below 10%), that's still hundreds of thousands of Americans each year who get to have their life thrown into a tailspin. It's not so simple as having the DMV mis-spell your middle-name or shipping your driver's license to the wrong address.

Indeed there have, and they haven't taken off... in Linux. Which is one of the reasons I think the Linux Desktop is unsalvagable. If the community would rather keep recreating the package manager and never fixing any of its problems as a distribution mechanism than go with the obvious and simple solution, then it is no surprise they have such a small share of the Desktop.

Just use folders guys. Mac classic used to essentially do that (it was technically a single file with a resource fork), DOS did that, RiscOS did that, NeXTStep did that and modern MacOS inherited from it and still does that, A lot of Windows applications still work like that even if they don't advertise it, and I'm sure there's a bunch I'm forgetting. Linux Desktop seems like the outlier here, insisting on spreading everything over the file hierarchy and interlocking it all like it's still a server from the 70s.
Have a feeling this will end up extorting American expats and people who grew up abroad without ever living or working in the US (who are only US citizens because of their parents).

When FATCA was passed, it flipped a switch that automatically made tens of thousands of people around the world who have never set foot in the US into criminals by default since they'd never filed US taxes (the US has the only global taxation system in the world).

It sounds like those people who haven't spent the ridiculous sums of money on accounts/lawyers/etc needed to become compliant during the grace period will likely now have the threat of their passport being revoked held over their head.

I'm sure we'll see the already record-high numbers of people renouncing their US citizenship accelerate. BTW, the US also has the highest fee to renounce citizenship in the entire world, it costs $2,350 to not be a US citizen.

The absurdity of it all would be funny if it weren't so cruel.

As the other commenter said, once you're paying for the appeals, it's probably not abuse, and you can get better service because it's not coming out of the other party's bottom line.

If it really costs Google $50-100 per appeal, it would be no surprise that they didn't have humans in the loop, the traffic to this page was probably worth pennies at best, and the company would have just decided it's not worth wasting everyone's time with.

Arguably, that's the case for manned combat aircraft generally, at least, in terms of cost-effective survivability. A point which a number of experts have been making since before the F-35s massive cost overruns and other issues.
I mean, yes we have. This is how the Go AI was trained to beat the world champion, and it also helps to develop the autonomous cars at Waymo. Give it like 5 years and you have enough compute power to simulate many more data and situations.

45% of tax filers owe no income tax. That's not the same as owing nothing. Independent contractors don't have FICA deducted from their paychecks, and with the rise of gig jobs, there are quite a lot of "poor" people who owe 15% of their income at the end of the year.
You seriously underestimate the burden the US places on its expats and banks that do business with them. Its to the point most foreign banks will not do business with US nationals.

1 in 10 fitting the company culture and being a good technical fit sounds pretty good to me. What number would sound good to you and why?

As someone who has done a lot of interviews, I think his methods sound great. Through trial and error, I've ended up with an approach that is pretty similar to what's described in the article, although there are some new ideas from the article I'd like to try out.

> I'd say it takes 6 months to find out if a programmer is good or really good

I'm much more concerned about cultural fit. After that I'm happy with both good and really good programmers. A good programmer can be trained up to be really good. Most companies need a mix a junior, intermediate, and senior programmers.
I think community colleges are great, but they also are used to reframe the issues away from the real problems and solutions:

First, employers are only interested in what you can do for them, immediately. They are not interested in you or the rest of your life either 'horizontally' (the very many other aspects of your life, from individual to parent to citizen to homeowner to intellectual to whatever) or vertically (the rest of your life after you work for them, after you retire, if you get sick, have kids, go to grad school, etc.). For example, many employers will repeat the trendy mantra that all you need is community college skills, but they won't hire you for management without an MBA.

Second, the distribution of education is not based on capability and need, but on the wealth of parents. Wealthy kids without academic talent or effort get 4 year degrees or more; poor kids who are smart and work hard get community college or less. It's just as good, the wealthy people say, but somehow not good enough for their kids or to hire or pay well.

Finally, the demand for 4 year college is overwhelming, which we can see based on the ability to raise tuition without impacting attendance. The demand in the labor market is overwhelming, based on salary differences. Let's meet the demand and stop finding second rate substitutions.
I was initially skeptical, but this article nails the issues 100%. His experience mirrors my own and I don't think I even had a single place where I disagreed with him.

All I would add is that rails can be made to work wonderfully with SPAs if you're willing to do some metamagical programming to auto-follow standards like JSON API.

Being that the account that submitted this is still green, I'm going to assume that the person behind it is either a user of Cloud9Trader or affiliated with it. If that is the case, I have a few questions:

1. Who is the intended demographic here? Based on pricing and features there's no way this is intended for institutional funds, so is this targeted at amateurs or small professionals? It states it's targeting "beginners to get grips with quant trading for free", but that strikes me as a poor market to try and sell to.

2. Can users' algorithms be seen by the platform? If so, that's a non-starter for many professionals.

3. Does Cloud9Trader provide historical data or just compute power? If historical data is provided, what resolutions are available?

4. Which brokers are supported? It seems like just FXCM and Oanda; are there plans for others?

5. How are backtest compute units measured? The pricing page states:

"A backtest compute unit is a measure of processing resource made available for backtesting. 10 units is equivalent to one month of backtesting every tick, or 10 months of backtesting minute data."

but it's unclear to me how an atomic unit of compute time can be generalizably the same for every user's backtesting workflow.

6. What is the non-pricing data you're providing? It looks like you're just reselling premium geographic data from Quadrant and free data from Quandl, but the naming scheme is not clear on what it's providing.

I guess while I'm here I might as well make this point: I'm deeply pessimistic that this tool would meaningfully improve the productivity or profitability of real-world quantitative trading. I also don't think it makes sense to target "beginners in quant trading" because quantitative trading is one of those things which mostly doesn't (and shouldn't) exist outside of teams and companies. I consider it somewhat predatory to offer a service that implicitly encourages inexperienced non-professionals to get into this - quantitative trading is very unlike programming and entrepreneurship in that there is no straightforward way to teach yourself or bootstrap.

Perhaps the risk isn’t that technology will actually take over white collar jobs, but that managers will use minimally viable examples of technology to layoff massive numbers of people for short-term gains.

Of course when the companies then implode because the technology can no way make up for the resulting skill drain, said managers will have moved on to a new position, having sold the layoffs/technology as evidence of their “superior business accumen.”
