This route is notoriously bad, and almost legendarily so. I worked at Vodafone eleven years, and the challenges of providing decent mobile data to a train that cuts through a bunch of dips I radio coverage are... hard.

However, the train company bought hideously expensive 3G equipment to install on some cars that they never bothered to maintain. If they did and upgraded them, the on-board WiFi would be better than having the phone try to talk to a base station through the train car.

Regardless, mobile connectivity in Portugal is, by and large, pretty good, although ai can’t wait until I can stop using MEO and go back to Vodafone to get stable voice calls on urban streets (their dropped call ratio is through the roof, and me and my colleagues have trouble with voice calls every day).
It's also worth noting that you don't always have to do it with voice either. If I'm on the couch with my phone, I might use it to update my shopping list, whereas if I'm in the kitchen cooking, I'll use voice. Similarly, if I just want random music, I will say "play music", but if I want a specific album, I might use my phone, especially if it has a complicated name that I don't remember.

Obviously not every action is easier or more optimal by voice, but having the option is great.
Missing from Tip 2 is maybe the biggest "secret", which is that all visual designers build libraries of inspirational reference material. For example, logo designers will typically have several books full of logotypes, symbols, etc.

> stubbornly refuse to offer a perk

I think describing remote working as a 'perk' is not a good idea. Really it's more efficient for both parties, and is a sensible way to work. Calling it a 'perk' makes it sound like a silly benefit just for the employee, on the same level as ping pong tables.
The fact that they’re effectively giving them away for free still don't make them worthless though.

That can be fun and is only one step away from "point-free style". Just leave out the inputs altogether and switch to direct function composition:

Personally, I often find point-free to be a little too terse, but occasionally it's much clearer than "regular" code.

There was some discussion about the methodology on Reddit, but I think there is some controversy over whether the methodology used to measure bias is sound. Basically, you're asked to categorize a series of items as quickly as possible, and the time taken is used to measure your "implicit bias".

I created my first dynamic website using Phoenix, coming from a data mining background. I knew about HTML and CSS but that was it. I followed one of the Phoenix books, and managed to make a full blog website in a couple of weeks in my spare time. Though Phoenix tutorials and books in general tend to assume that you know how to use Javascript, and so I never really picked up how to make a proper Javascript-based website with React (or whatever) except for copy-pasting relevant stuff. Anyway, overall pleasant and easy experience since Elixir is very logical and straightforward.

i dont disagree with you, but there are alot more basic resources available now then when I learned kernel programming in the early 90s.

also, being able to develop under qemu is a massive* timesaver. not only can you reboot completely from the terminal, and have access to a gdb stub, but you can also get tracing information directly from the "hardware" itself.

using the virtio drivers gives you a pretty quick onramp to having network and storage support.

you could* write a 1000 page book on vm...but writing a little interface that builds x84-64 page tables really is a couple hundred lines. interrupts another 1-2 hundred. threads another, syscall dispatch, etc.

I'm not suggesting that everyone go off and build their own production grade private OS.. but its a pretty fun exercise, and it gives you a really great perspective on whats going on down there.
I don't actually know of anything like this, though I think it should probably exist somewhere. If anyone else knows, I'd be interested to see it too!
What Ethereum Does Next
It's safer than email + password. Every email + password combination I'm familiar with allows you to reset password by having a link sent to your email, which means that access to email is always considered the ultimate association of identity.

This just removes the email + password altogether and requires that you have explicit access to the email. So it takes the end-all-be-all access criteria of the other solution, but removes the possibility of them being able to have a weak password, and also removes the issue of them having to store and transport passwords.

Social pressure is so strong!

This knowledge wasn't obvious as a young woman.

> Does anyone else despise mechanical keyboards?

Some likely do, some don't.

In my case, I don't. I'm typing this right now on a Northgate OmniKey Ultra [1] that was bought circa. 1991 (sometime late 1991). I've got a second identical to it at work as well, but the second one was purchased circa. 1995. Myself, if there is anything I despise it is the low throw, chick-let style keyboards, so I'd be almost opposite you there.

The reality is, to each his own. Different people will have different opinions on mechanical vs. non-mechanical keyboards.

React Native Conference – 2019
I think that this is something that I've noticed MacOS has generally handled well (at least since Lion, which is when I started noticing), among other memory subsystem things (being a little smarter about what to swap out, etc).

However, the MacOS kernel seems to require a much higher amount of wired memory than the Linux kernel for similar workloads, so...

I don't know if those are related, but it'd be interesting to figure out what MacOS does differently (their kernel is open sourced) and to see if that behavior could be adapted into the Linux kernel.

> "Su’s CES keynote had the feel of a tipping point. A star was born. She even impressed people who have known her for many years."

That's ridiculous. It's as though EETimes is pretending there have been no Ryzen keynotes in the past.

Her keynotes have been way better than the average hardware keynote for some time now.

The thing that makes her better than many others is that she clearly knows and understands the technical details of her company's products, and she comes off as genuinely stoked about how great the products are.

Ever since the first keynote I saw of her for the early Ryzen announcements, I've been making a point to watch any keynote she's done.

Isn't that the same kind of excuse-making you're dinging the Android world for? "OK, fine, the experience sucks by default but it works fine if you just do this and this and this". Android has all those sorts of features too.

It's just a hard problem. App developers are bad, and do bad things. OSes can't protect against all bad behavior. Phone manufacturers do have a vested interest in protecting their users from bad apps. Users do actually benefit from this on balance.
Maybe the demand is from the worst kind of users a business would want, those that would never convert to actual customers but want something for to tinker and install for free...
The term "woo" has been used in such contexts as far back as I can remember. It's quite apt, as it's an arrangement involving many variables, the subculture of a group of people, and relatively high stakes. It's not only applied to CEOs, but high value employees. (Of both genders, might I add. I seem to recall that it's even been applied to actual princes at times.)

I am wondering if this is just the thing for our workplace - it is remarkable how spot on their value proposition is. It is not every feature from every service - but they seem to deliver very well on core functionality. And I must say that their landing page is one of the better I have seen for a SaaS.

I posted this in hopes of people posting stories and discussions about their experiences and thoughts about the product - which you very well delivered, thanks.
I don't know if I'd say it's irrelevant if it's not used by the current industry. It's always helpful to understand what is possible and how to achieve it. And beyond actual application, formalizations of fairness notions and thinking about their implications for computing gives us another lens to think about fairness more broadly (as in, these kinds of technical discussions can give specificity and clarity to discussions of fairness even beyond machine learning and computing).

To your second point, it's very difficult to attribute a single intention to large companies. There are certainly employees and researchers at large tech companies that work on fairness and privacy preservation because they think it's important and want to make their companies more responsible (I know some!). It's also certainly true that exploring this type of research looks good for the company, and some other employees are surely aware of that and promoting it for those reasons.

Then you might as well use 1.1.1.1 and not bother with VPN maintenance.
there is less context switches because you cant write some data to several distinct file descriptor using a single system call.

You can also read data from several file descriptor in a single System Call.

This way you significantly reduce the number of System call instead of doing one blocking read() per connection.
I believe context switch round trip (from user space to kernel to user space) is much more expensive than simply switching between goroutine of the same process.

You're not being lazy, you applied to and were hired into a position for back-end development which would indicate that the company had substantial needs for that type of expertise. Poor planning on their part and this could derail your career if you are not careful.

I have been in this situation before, although reversed (hired for front-end and design, tasked with back-end maintenance), and I eventually left the company due to their multiple repeated shell games. The experience has made me much more selective in regards to employment opportunities.

IMHO you should consider that you have been hired into a different job than you applied for, and you should leave the company as quickly as is convenient for you. If that means showing up and getting paid for six months while you find another opportunity then so be it. Luckily since you have only been there three months then your interviewing skills should still be fresh.

Just a couple thoughts on this.

No, it's not impossible.

The position of the American Anthropological Association is that there is far, far greater variation within races (however that concept is defined) than between races. I think this is a sensible position to take, and one supported by evidence, even though it does not directly answer your question.

For me, the real question is: Do we really want to pursue this research goal? As psychology is very far from a complete science there's a lot of room for ambiguity and interpretation in the cutting edge of the evidence. Given human history, and up to and including the present state of our politics, I really do not trust our society to see the nuance and contingency in emerging data. The risk of studying such a topic would be gargantuan, and for what practical benefits? There are certainly many other worthy topics which deserve our scientific attention without carrying all the risk of this one.

On top of that: defining and measuring a concept as nebulous as "intelligence" is a nightmare. To reduce it to a 1-dimensional scale I think is your first sign that things are not quite right.
Perhaps the ARM world could still provide some competition.

Docker are actually an example of a pattern, one that also impacts MongoDB and many other companies. That pattern is that they intentionally branded the product and the project with the same name (in this case Docker) to help with slipstreaming on the community mindshare they were building.

The flip side of that which eventually comes home to roost though is that it means the two are easily confused . If I'm a customer and I can download X or buy X from you, and the two are virtually identical, you better have a damn good story as to what your value proposition over and above the project is.

Red Hat actually arguably only just got themselves out of this. Originally there was just Red Hat Linux, regardless of whether you paid them a cent. The split into Fedora (Core) - the free distribution - and RHEL - the enterprise distribution with paid support subscriptions - is a not insignificant part of why the company still exists today. This transition was not without controversy, and arguably created the space into which Canonical and Ubuntu emerged, but it was a necessary step to disambiguate the project and the thing people actually pay for with its own value prop and messaging around it.

It's somewhat surprising that so many of these companies proclaim they want to be the next Red Hat, but ignore the prior art for how that came to be.
The main thing to consider is which way of spending one's time will be more fulfilling in the long run.
