If it’s comp, then rejections would happen at initial pay band discussion or final offer. Numbers on Glassdoor for us look good. But instead I have very few leads whose work is interesting or who do well in the interview process. Frequently, they want to move to SF anyway. They tell the recruiter that.

Honestly, comp numbers are past the point on Maslow’s pyramid where they can get someone to care. If you’re not going to get a guy for $350k but you can get him for $700k, he’s not planning on sticking around and he can’t produce $1.5m of value in his one year that he’ll stay for the payout. Few people are like that. It doesn’t make sense to optimize for that.

Oh neat! (I'm working on using Joy in a practical way, I had an implementation in Python but it turns out Prolog is more conducive: https://osdn.net/projects/joypy/scm/hg/Joypy/blobs/tip/thun/...)

> Unfortunately, it was that “nontrivial” aspect that I could never get past. The language always ended up insufficiently powerful to express anything of interest, its algebraic structure was trivial (e.g. there’s only one program), or it ended up having a weaker structure (e.g. an idempotent semiring). Chris Pressey also worked on this concept a bunch around 2007, and produced some results like Cabra² and Burro³, but ran into similar dead ends like Potro⁴.

Maybe that in itself is an important result?
I don't know why, I have never been to Italy neither France, but from the pop culture diet I've been fed, I'd rather be subjected to French soldiers AND police than their Italian counterpart. Commisar Montalbano, I'm sorry.
On the contrary, it has The Ludoquist!
That's not what he actually said though. He said:

>Even if the bulk collection of telephony metadata constitutes a search, the Forth Amendment does not bar all searches and seizures. It bars only unreasonable searches and seizures. And the Government’s metadata collection program readily qualifies as reasonable under the Supreme Court’s case law.

He's clearly just enforcing the precedent set by the Supreme Court. When asked whether he'd have written the same thing if the case had occurred after Carpenter vs United States, he answered:

>"Do you think if Carpenter had been decided you would have written the concurrence you did in Klayman?" Leahy asked.

>"I don't see how I could have," Kavanaugh said.

If this one case is all you really need to know about Kavanaugh, then you may as well know the truth rather than a misunderstanding you took away from a single line of news article.

>though judges have, contrary to your opinion, some latitude

This is true, judges have enormous latitude to rule any way they see fit, there are a number of well known 'activist' judges serving today. However good judges understand that they're not legislators and try to enforce the law as accurately as possible.
It's also popular among communists. The idea of getting rid of anyone who stands in the way of some ideology or belief so that a utopia can be established.

Mao killed 45 - 100 million people. Many were starved to death, with food allocated such that anyone who opposed his ideals did not get food.

Stalin and Lenin killed their millions, too. Not an athiest? Off to the gulag! Successful farmer or landowner? Off to the gulag! Too successful or competent? Off to the gulag!

In today's China, the government is operating concentration camps to "reeducate" people into proper belief systems - presumably so that the communist party's utopia can be achieved. It is estimated as many as a million may be in these camps.
A former employer of mine took this to the extreme: They regularly audited in-person attendance by checking for badge swipes and subsequently pushed out anyone they deemed to be working remotely too much by way of attrition through stack ranking, regardless of actual output.

It turns out that being able to spend every moment in the office promoting yourself as a "10x rockstar" was more important than ever delivering a single impactful project.

You won't be alone. In any real organization, you'll be part of an experienced team that's working towards the same goal as you, and if you're curious, open and appropriately humble, they'll teach you everything you need to know.

Nope, this is not normal behavior for Signal, it is a sign that the sending or receiving phone has FCM and data connectivity issues.

I have seen this issue on Motorola Android phones with known dying LTE Modems (eg: these phones couldn't maintain a data session for more than a few minutes, GPS off WiFi is also unreliable).
Your CHANCES OF DYING RANKED BY SPORT AND ACTIVITY
Re: "the problem I've always had with these types of systems is that there's always that one item on your to-do list which ends up more complicated than you expected", I 100% agree. To avoid being subjective like you mentioned, I often prefer to time-box my tasks if I think there's any risk of the scope being unclear. So instead of:

- Migrate photos from iCloud to Google Photos

I'll start with:

- Spend 1 hour trying to migrate photos and write down where I left off

This avoids the issue of being unsatisfied at the end of the day because something didn't get done or something took longer than expected.

If something absolutely has to get done and cannot be time-boxed, I like to veer conservative and either start way earlier than necessary or devote a whole day or more to doing just that one thing (example: taxes - start early, work fire drill - drop everything until it's done).
I think the logic is that instead of everything going via a handful of servers at the big companies, it goes through many more thousands of individual PCs but of course, that depends on the technology used. Torrents should be faster but only if lots of people seed and don't simply download and disconnect.
That right is neither absolute nor unlimited doesn't mean that there aren't clear lines that the government isn't allowed to overstep. The First Amendment is neither absolute nor unlimited, as well, but the bar is extremely high in practice.

As far as ownership of military grade arms - that stems directly from the wording of the Second, and is given some validation by the judicial commentary in the Miller decision (that's the one where the court ruled that the defendant did not have a constitutional right to possess a sawed-off shotgun, on the basis that it is not a common military weapon). The exact boundaries of 2A are yet to be determined, but the wording of Heller strongly imply that "assault weapons" are protected - it specifically cites "... in common use at the time" as one of the criteria for protection, and it would be very hard to argue that a firearm of which 9 million were made (and sold) in 8 past years alone is not "in common use".

It would be the ultimate irony if this argument that it's all about the militia wins the day, but combined with individual interpretation of the right - which would imply that every citizen has the right to own military grade weapons (even fully automatic, since that's what militaries use, after all) - and only them; not hunting rifles etc.
(Note: in the case on the arXiv, the process is called "withdrawal" rather than "retraction" since it's only ever done by authors themselves, and only on a voluntary basis. The arXiv does not have an editorial team who would make retractions.)
> But you'd still expect features to be getting implemented at a higher rate

Yes, I'm inclined to agree, but I actually haven't ever seen a study which compares the same project implemented in different languages to establish in toto the variance in SLOC. It could be the case that in the main for the same project the differences between languages wash out, as different languages may have different advantages and disadvantages that are more likely to tell on a substantive project.

What you suggest seems reasonable, but I simply don't know it to actually be the case.
You could install GNU/Linux on the ones that were already purchased.
I would expect this from people who have not experienced SF yet. The opportunity I'm suggesting is among people who are currently in SF and disillusioned with it.
I can't see that much "harm" in it either. I'm not asking for Atwood to be arrested. I'm just explaining one of the reasons I don't like her (that, and her increasingly schlocky writing, jmo of course).
Nah, what if your friends conspire against you? A better idea, imo, is you have three physical keys. If you lose one, then you can use the other 2 in order to revoke it and generate a new one.

> my success in life isn’t depending on thousands of teenagers pushing a like button

In a certain sense, though, most serious adult business still boils down to people seeing an ad, installing an app, buying a product, attracting investors, or teenagers clicking a like button.

Edit: The YouTubers who go on to do it at a more serious capacity will also learn valuable first-hand lessons in dealing with partnerships, sponsors, public relations, release cycles, etc. All of which are useful depending on what it is that you want to do in your career.
My go to is meditation. Everytime I find my mind wandering I take a break for 3 minutes and concentrate on my breathing. I find it brings my brain back to focus on the present.
So maddening to hear that! The funding should be diverse enough not to go to all the veterans.
It's interesting to read the OP's response to partial evaluation (employed by Truffle) and why he switched to meta-tracing in RPython. Basically, the inlining/specialization decisions in PE-based JITs were harder to control than just letting the VM observe loop iterations.

Here's a paper regarding a pair of language implementors' experience using both techniques:

http://stefan-marr.de/papers/oopsla-marr-ducasse-meta-tracin...

By changing the abstract syntax tree during execution, type-generic nodes in the AST can be replaced with type-specialized nodes. This carries more overhead than tracing through the interpreter. It also requires more explicit work from the user to achieve optimized results.

The authors of the above study conclude that the resulting performance was similar, but that meta-tracing was an easier technique to use than PE. This agrees with the OP's assessment.
This is something I'd definitely be interested in adding to this list. Trouble is that services are changing their pricing very frequently.
A cure for herpes means the excision of viral DNA from the infected cells. Herpes is one of those viruses that stays with a person for life by means of establishing persistence with DNA insertion.

Because of this, any cure will probably rely on CRISPR/Cas9 or variants of this process. E.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29844277

What you're drawing attention to there, if I'm reading it correctly, is that the presence of the antibodies resulting from the vaccine enables an immune response to consistently check an outbreak just as it's starting, potentially mitigating an outbreak before one becomes visibly apparent.

But I'm probably not reading it correctly. All I'm confident in is that anything short of literally cutting the viral DNA out of the infected cells won't actually cure an infection.
So who selects which facts to include? Which sources are considered worthy of inclusion? I don't think there's an 'unbiased' ('free' of particular values) way of doing even that.

Using example about president said X aren't good examples, I don't think - most news isn't like this. Or you will just have things the president said?

When talking about things that happened, I suggest that, apart from disputes about what actually happened, choice of verb is a matter of interpretation. And the 'terrorist/freedom fighter' question. How you see the world, how you describe what happens in it, is a function of what you believe.

Gee, the political spectrum is NYT - Fox News?!.. (They're both on the right, like your two main political parties)

simply strips out those biases - these phrases are amazing for me to read. It sounds staggeringly naïve to me. But sure, go for it. So then it sounds like you think a bias-free TV news or newspaper should be possible? Well, wouldn't that be a good thing?

Anyway. I look forward to the results, good luck with that. It reminds me of when I started writing a program which could write poetry/jokes. I quickly realized it would have to know everything about the world.[0] But still, actually trying was very valuable, gave me some vivid lessons.

All of the 4 major LTE cellular carriers operate IPv6 only networks with NATed IPv4 access tunneled in as an unsupported afterthought.

Having done quite a bit of testing with IPv6 enabled VOIP for inbound calls as compared to FCM with calls coming from an IPv4 only server, only the former setup would reliably get calls to my device on the first ring.
It was originally meant to reflect a left-right political axis for controversial political stories. We publish spins with a few other types of stances now (e.g. Hawk vs. Dove, Environment vs. Free Market) and the explainer could use an update. Thanks for the feedback on it.

I, and I suspect many other people, often have online profiles and existences and we simply don’t care about the government seeing it. Don’t get me wrong, I’d like a high security option for some things, but most of what I do online is frankly trivial nonsense. I’d be much more upset if I lost access to it forever than I would if some jackbooted thug decided to snoop around it. Why does everything need to be the digital equivalent of a Supermax prison? I want the full range from a guy on furlough to Hannibal Lector fullly restrained, mask and all.

If you’re only willing to offer me the “Lector” package, I’m going to pass.
Thank you :) Airtable is a good one!

what are reasonable COL US markets?
I remember reading a story about the manufacturing and shipping of the first iPhone. Late into the process, Steve Jobs threw a (justified) fit over the fact that the screen was to be made of plastic. He (rightly) complained that people would be putting the phone in their pockets with their keys, and the thing would be scratched up in no time. This, he declared, would not do.

So, what happened next, in short, is that the Chinese factory was contacted and—in order to keep to schedule, which Apple refused to change—the foremen woke up all the line workers, who were asleep in their company provided dormitories, roused them out of bed, told them that there was time enough to get dressed and have a quick cup of tea, after which they would have to get their selves onto the assembly line and start work immediately, as there had been a big change.

This is not going to happen in the United States—ever. And this, above all else, is a big reason why companies want to use Chinese manufacturing.

I share this only to raise the point that we live in interesting times, and they're about to get even more interesting.
And not everyone hates the open floor plan offices. Companies can point to the employees who either like it or are indifferent about it and tell everyone else they aren't being "team players".

There are inherent benefits to large, centralized platforms. Users, especially content creators, desire a large network of users and excellent UX, both of which have typically been properties of centralized systems or at least far easier to achieve with centralized systems. Every decentralized social network thus far has failed, and the modestly successful ones (Mastodon, for example) are in fact federated.

Many of the problems alluded to in this article, in particular the privacy risk of centralized data, are more effectively solved by policy changes and iterated technology (differential privacy as well as bread-and-butter cryptography) rather than furious hand-waving about blockchain protocols.

Fair points, but my key argument regarding the timeframe was that it was merely the dawn of the modern tech industry. Things were just getting really started. The entire FAANG group was either in its infancy or wasn't founded at all (Facefook was only founded in 2,004, for example).

The sustainable, profitable tech industry we know today was just getting started back then.

I think cockmail would reflect poorly on my professional image, and I'm not really confident my friends would be able to take me seriously with that domain, but sure.
I agree, this is the best approach by far. You should read fox news and cnn to get a balanced perspective. Though few minds can handle the cognitive dissonance, sadly.
I like writing using mathematical notation. I like trying to express as much as possible using as few symbols as possible, and not as much rigour as I should. It's something that I used to do to study and I keep doing it for work now. It helps me to understand things better, but I don't think anybody else could understand what I write.
Hmm, the green belt policy prevents companies from going "this bit of land needs concrete removing, lets just use a fresh field for our block of flats" which leads to settlements spreading excessively often encompassing large "dead" areas. House price problems are down to landlords being able to earn a living by doing nothing other than owning land.

Green belt also protects farm land, which when Brexit hits is going to be a major thing for us again; if we'd been able to sell out all our farms for housing developments then we [or the poor at least] would be a considerably more dangerous position when food import prices rise.

Of course housing developers instead of spending the money to properly develop on flood plains, if they needed to, decided as they weren't living there and the government was turning a blind eye that they could get away with it. So now we have tighter laws on building in flood prone areas -- though they still get ignored somewhat, in my area of the UK for political reasons a school has recently been built on land marked as "by law you can not build here, high flood risk" (idiots!).

Companies that complain about lack of talent are generally the ones that refuse to pay competitive salaries. These are also the same ones that want the government to increase visa limitations and import cheaper engineers from overseas.

If there was a true talent shortage you'd see increases in salaries and other methods of compensation.
The idea is good but I still think you could just schedule use of various websites like any other meeting.
That’s fair, and I get it. I just don’t have that many people like that working with me and I work with people from 22 to 45 years of age.

Seriously, I’ve had people move from here to Texas or Washington, and they keep the straight bump in wages that comes from not paying state tax. But that’s a single digit number out of a 100+ team. It isn’t helping expand the team.
Maybe it has something to do with the combination of your OS and Firefox versions.

In that case it is no more complex. AMP is more structured than HTML, has fewer valid tags and attributes, and has an official implementation documentation that expresses how to design the perfect AMP UI in a much more concise and simple way than the HTML docs.
I have hired some PhDs in your situation and worked with others, I personally just went to work after I got my BSEE.

My observation is that you're halfway there when you realize that you need to improve, of the folks I saw who did poorly it was because they didn't realize that you could be both the smartest person in the room and the least capable at the same time.

Right now, on your first job experience, even a kid who never went to college is better at programming than you are because they've been experiencing all the pitfalls that can happen and have built up a knowledge from that which is perhaps more intuitive than formal but serves them well. What you have over that person is that you've trained yourself to consume, classify, organize, and distill massive amounts of information in a short amount of time.

Use that training to consume everything you can on the art of writing programs. Read "Test Driven Development" read "Code Complete", read "Design Patterns", read "The Design of the UNIX Operating System", read "TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 1", and a book or two on databases. With your training you should be able to skim through those to identify the various "tricky bits" and get a feel for what is and what is not important in this new field of yours.

Soak in as much as you can and ask a lot of questions. Pretty soon no one will know you haven't been doing this your whole life.
I migrated some internal tools from Lua to Python because of the incredible ecosystem. However, I miss everyday the speed of Lua thanks to LuaJIT. But I already ported almost all critical code to Cython. It is on my todo list to undo this port and test with Pypy.

I feel that PyPy need to receive much more love and attention than it actually gets.
I already donated, and put all my hopes on PyPy. The Windows is also very renegaded, where the multiprocessing module is unusable. I hope to get some time soon to help this incredible project and finish lib_pypy/_winapi.py.
