Age doesn't matter. The title exists if someone else thinks your senior in the context of your current work. Senior at company A may be Software Engineer II at another due to organizational differences or lack of experience in the topics worked on.

From my limited experience, a senior engineer in my eyes is someone at work who is a subject matter expert in the systems they are currently working on within their team or department. In addition to that, the litmus test I use to classify a senior engineer is, "would I go to this person for advice for most issues or questions I have within this team?" For me it's both technical expertise and sophisticated communication skills to be able to effectively communicate to other team members and mentor them.

Beyond this role, I see ownership and autonomy within larger parts of system as being the next step.
The desirability of an individual is often strongly influenced by heritable traits. In the example with my interpretation, "beauty" is a trait we assume to be desirable (for the sake of illustration I'm assuming it's the only trait considered), and how much of it an individual has is heavily influenced by the coin-flip gene. I see no contradiction here.

I might interpret the sentences you quote as "We can give each individual a beauty score from 0 to 100, and all members of the opposite sex agree on what beauty score an individual gets." And we might imagine the coin-flippers have beauty in the ranges 90-100 or 0-10 (depending on the flip result), while the others are all between 40-60 beauty.
I suspect that enough differences may exist between liberal and conservative subpopulations that there may be differences in the media they prefer to produce and consume.

For example, talk radio is much more popular for the right wing than the left. Left wing commentators and performers have occasionally tried to break into talk radio and they generally don't accrue an audience.

Given that, I wouldn't be surprised if YouTube in particular (or any one site by itself) had more right-wing extreme content than left-wing extreme content. Left-wing extreme content may exist in equal proportion overall without having much of a presence specifically on YouTube.

Some types of farm work are paid by the amount of work performed, e.g. bushels of cherries. This method is permitted in federal labor law.

It might also be possible that being a 1099 contractor also avoids minimum wage laws by having a contract based on the job's completion, not the time taken.
Haha...

I have iPhone but don’t use any of those shitapps.

What people expect from “free” apps, I don’t know. Maybe they think it’s supposed to be some sort of government-coordinated social benefit arrangement.
The moment those apps can’t collect and sell data, they’ll go away, become crappier or start charging.
This is one of my frustrations about the Go community - it seems much more enthusiastic than usual to reinvent the wheel in "pure Go" for what feels are abstract ideological reasons, where other languages just wrap existing libraries and call it a day.

I wonder if it's the little things about the experience that add up to that - e.g. the usual approach to statically linking all Go code in a single binary leads to no deployment dependencies, and Go community considers it a good thing; but the moment you start invoking C code, you need to drag the corresponding .so along. Or maybe it's the part where the weird stack structure necessary to enable goroutines also impedes FFI performance, and it's a language that's naturally fast enough for that penalty is noticeable.

Either way, the Go ecosystem feels... deliberately insular, for the lack of better term?

You could save up enough money to the point which you're comfortable not accruing more wealth for the time you think it takes to prove the startup out prior to funding. Finding partners who can do the same can accelerate the time to an MVP. Also, it's possible to start something on the side while keeping your day job.
GPS data for a weather app is not necessary, because it's way to precise for its purpose. Most of the time I need to know how the weather is elsewhere, or how the weather is going to be today. How does precise (to a meter) GPS data help me there exactly?

I see the same thing on a completely uncontroversial subject: music videos. If I watch e.g. a Beatles video, the recommendations aren't [Rolling Stones, Kinks, Badfinger, ...], they're always [Beatles, Beatles, Beatles, ...]. I don't know if it's naive and bad or if it's actually good for engagement and I'm just an outlier in what I expect to get.

It's easy to figure out what an iOS device is connecting to: use a network extension that inspects network traffic. And given that Apple has none of the restrictions they impose on third party developers, they can essentially do what Little Snitch does on macOS.

From the article:

That strikes me as pretty damn "unsafe".
The biggest advantage of trees is deterministic complexity. There's a bunch of DoS attacks that exploit hashtables, because they can be O(n) in the worst case - and if you control the input, you can deliberately make it worst case. Most "secure C++" guidelines recommend defaulting to std::set and std::map for this reason alone.
Apple could implement iOS-wide measures to prevent unnecessary network connections or data streams from sensors. They failed to do that. "Offending applications" exploit that incompetence Apple displays in the recent years.

You cannot decompile apps without a jailbroken device, as they're encrypted with FairPlay. And iTunes, at least with the latest version, no longer lets you download apps.
I have seen some that don't. Back in early days of residential ISPs to offer IPv6. But, that's a thing of the past - and the same mistakes happened on the early IPv4 routers when dialup was disappearing, and DSL/Cable was kicking off.

Having IPv6 will be exactly as secure as IPv4+NAT by default on any CPE. And, just as with NAT+v4, it's possible to open your machines to the world if you have no idea what you're doing.

(This is actually pretty common for gamers who set the "DMZ host" router feature to aim at their desktop and flick off the firewall!)
There has been a recent trend to preserve insertion order, at least among more dynamic languages (PHP, Python, Ruby).

How?
I was internet acquainted with a homeless guy who did this for a while. I asked him about it as research. Because of my medical situation, I'm really not suited to this kind of work. But even if I were, I would have absolutely no idea how to get started.

I was fascinated by the fact that he knew how to find these unadvertised jobs in a community he had never been to before. Even after him describing it to me, I don't think I would have any hope of figuring it out. I imagine a lot of people whose experience is limited to formal job applications would have no idea how to start. Many would have no idea this is even a thing.

I wish I knew the right thing to say or questions to ask or whatever to use this as some opportunity to gather resources for another angle of approach to write about. I don't. This is wholly alien to my experience.

I think that's probably part of the problem in this country. Casual work connections of this sort used to be more common. Now, it's like only immigrants know how to do this. Most Americans don't.

That's not laziness or whatever. More like a blind spot.

I only wish I would get songs by the same band... It sort of seems like Youtube tries its darndest to steer me away from the current band. I'd be happy if it just cycled between hits from the same artists, but I've never seen it do this recently.

I think what's most frustrating about it is I don't know what game they're playing. Recommendations used to be logical, now they're almost a waste of screen real estate. What even happened?

Interviews with John Carmack [~1997-2008] [pdf]
Most of the code I write for the App Store is free and open source, which I can do because I am financially supported through other means. So it's not impossible to do.
It's not a Go-specific thing, although I'm not aware of anybody else doing it like this, producing different results at runtime for the same map. The more usual approach is to make the hashes themselves random, e.g. by utilizing a seed that's different for every new process. This is the case in .NET Core by default, for example, and in the legacy .NET Framework it's been an off-by-default switch for several years now.

But notice how Walmart's "monopoly" is different from Comcast's. Comcast has a monopoly because barriers are high. Walmart has one because they're the fiercest competitor. If Walmart raised prices, competing stores would appear immediately. When Comcast raises prices, everyone else has to tighten their belt.

It's not that they don't know about it, it's that the quote in question is an overt threat and the entire point of it is that the person it is said to will give up and stop trying out of fear, which would certainly prevent any sort of Streisand effect from happening.

There is no way to control the iOS firewall via extensions in iOS. Meaning, it's still not supported, and what you see as "essentially" the same misses the point. I want to block connections of specific apps. What iOS can do is reveal connections made by the network device to the outside. Duh. Set up Wireshark on some AP and get the same info.

IMO, Go is an attempt to design a modern language using C philosophy, and it shows. Like, this whole thing about slices is because they insist on trying to make arrays + slices into a data structure that does everything "good enough", while mostly retaining their performance profile. And so you end up with all of those abstractions that look kinda sorta like what you'd expect in a more typical modern language - but the moment you start poking hard at them, they leak like a sieve.

My guess is the system creator think a lot about making the best recommendations for situations where they have enough information but seldom think much about the consequences of making recommendations where they don't have the information to make a recommendation and both users and developers underestimate how information is needed for a decent recommendation.

Edit: And the situation seems very much a product of youtube (and all the content providers, basically) stripping any user content controls from their UI. The user has no easy way to tell youtube what they want besides choosing between video that youtube offers them and those become more circumscribed as the process progresses.

There's a myth of the content providers doing magic to give the user what they want and the results seem to be this, ie, just terrible.

> Perhaps most striking is what was absent. The algorithm rarely led back to mainstream news coverage, or to liberal or centrist videos on Chemnitz or any other topic. Once on the fringes, the algorithm tended to stay there, as if that had been the destination all along.

I wonder if part of the problem is the "news coverage" on YouTube is mostly amateur. People in the mainstream don't feel the need to produce amateur news coverage, since that's done professionally. However, people on the fringes produce and consume vast quantities of amateur news content, because there's so little fringe content that's professionally made. That leads to a large, focused single that Youtube's algorithms have trouble filtering out because they're too coarse and they confuse activity for quality.
I'm not Syrian, I'm Iraqi, and I can assure you the issue is bigger than that around here (most middle east)

The only positive(ish) thing I know of is a Bootcamp they do in northern Iraq for Iraqi(ISIS crisis) and Syrian refugees that teach them how to code, but it's most basic stuff that bearly qualify you for an interview but no more.

The problem with these international organization is that they sponsor local educational entities to do the teaching and training... and 99% of them are not even qualified to work in the industry (tech as an example), I know a young girl certified by the "IEEE young professionals", with local & international charities sponsorships, who teaches girls how to code, and her classroom slides are full of errors... in HTML... structure and spelling mistakes all over the place :'(
There's is a hidden "not interested" button on mobile where you can then say why you don't want to watch a video and choose to block the channel or similar videos.

The algorithm isn't ideal, but after a couple days of filtering you can pretty consistently get a feed of videos you're interested in.

The idea of people getting persuaded by fake news, etc. is a topic for another day. This assumes you can vet trustworthy sources on your own.
I'm not sure if this is pushing a "us vs them"; and yes, it obviously is a one-sided story.

TIL, "EDM" = "Electronic dance music"

This is not in accord with my understanding of dancing.

I have nearly only done "type 2" dancing - mostly pair dancing, and some Scottish country dancing, but also a bit of rueda, modern dance, flamenco, etc.

In type 1 music, if each person "invents moves to decorate that framework" then how does that result in "a crowd all jumping together"?

My experience with type 2 dancing is that we dancers also '[invent] moves to decorate that framework'. I can easily think of the times where I invented new things in both salsa and tango. (Note: I mean 'invented' in the personal sense - doing things that I didn't learn from others. I believe this is what the author meant.)

There is a strong bias error in the use of images to make the argument. Most of the dancing I do involves large groups of dancing pairs. For examples, https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22salsa+club%22&t=ffsb&iar=images... and https://www.google.com/search?q=crowded+tango+floor&source=l... and https://duckduckgo.com/?q=latin+club+dancing&t=ffsb&iar=imag... .

While crowded dance floors are my experience, most of the pictures for salsa and tango are of only small number of people dancing, because those shots are more photogenic.

BTW, dancing does not require music. A YouTube search for "dance without music" found https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbpRwgd4Hqc with almost that exact title, for example. Making this type 3?
Another aspect is youtube's algos tend to heavily favor "engagement" ie watching a full 30 minute video, not hard to see how this funnels people into fanatics due to their nutty followers devoted engagement.
Time does appear in fundamental concepts in physics?

In relativity it is particularly important. Timelike dimensions are treated differently in the metric, with a +1 or -1 depending on taste, ie

ds^2 = c dt^2 - dx_1^2 - dx_2^2 - dx_3^2,

so I don't think its quite fair to say that it doesn't "appear". In quantum physics unitary evolution is invertible. Decoherence is not reversible (I mean interaction - loss of entanglement).

Maybe these theories have been biased by our perception, but they are good (but incomplete) models.

This is an interesting point. Was he historically important to CS and engineering ? I certainly understand the sentiment and appreciate his talent, but can somebody be important if their work is only useful to them, if the only benefit of of their accomplishments is for themselves ? I see why people might say yes, but that's a no for me,dog. Historical is about people, and his work was about himself.
It is important not to put the cart before the horse, its youtube that controls recommendations, thought various mostly opaque means.

Do not confuse that with what people want, you hear plenty of stories about how somebody watched some $stupid_shit and then their recommendations are pure $stupid_shit for the next two weeks.
