Edit: I think I answered a different question than I believed.

Been a while but my best crack at it: If you’re trying to minimize a function, you can call it the primal function. It will have n inputs and m constraints (like how many of each product should I buy constrained by budget and carrying capacity). You can flip the problem around into its dual formulation. This will be a function with m inputs and n constraints, and it will be a maximization problem.

If you can solve the dual formulation (global max), you know that the primal cannot possibly be lower than the dual. For some types of problems (convex), you can even guarantee that the global max of the dual is the global min of the primal.

The transformation between primal and dual formulations goes both ways, so the primal is the dual of the dual.

Of course, when you hire an engineer in the Bay Area, it's practical to avoid the fucking middleman.
Plumbers I can see from the range and messiness of the tasks as very non-standardized beyond pipe thicknesses, and the diagnostics and HVACs as a cousin likely would have some similar issues but why would welders be a very hard to automate task?

Not dismissing it I just wonder what the "hard for machines" aspect is that I'm missing.

I know there are plenty of robotic welders out there and that progress implies they'll either expand more into "humans can't do that" territory and possibly become cheaper over time.

Not necessarily true, i know entry level engineers earning well above $100k in the Bay Area who are barely getting by because they are paying $5-$6/mo in rent alone which is post-tax.
Sure. But on a school day my kid spends around 7 hours at school. And only 3 awake hours with me. And in those 3 hours we also have to fit in breakfast, dinner, chores, and getting them ready for school. So maybe 1 hour of actual time where we can do something.

There are also weekends of course. But ultimately kids spend about as much time in school as they do with a (working) parent.
"Resort Fee" is a made up fee to mislead customers and it is not the same as a parking fee.
Last minute? That was HT's original thing, same day bookings in an easy app.
Used HT since 2016.
I think the biggest feature for me has always been the last minute convenience.
It's true as other's have mentioned that the pricing has mostly reached an equilibrium with competitors but they still offer decent discounts based on several factors including points like your current location while you have the app open.
I usually open the app before I get on a flight to see what's available, then when I land at my destination airport and I'm ready to book for same day or night, the prices tend to be discounted by a fair amount for some hotels.

The points and perks are also an added benefit, like not having to physically checkout at the front-desk for certain hotels once you've attained a "perk level" (read: loyalty points).

I will say I'm a little tepid about this deal, although very happy for the HT folk for what hopefully is a decent exit. I hope this only helps the app grow and offer more features and stay true to core, although it will likely be absorbed into the Airbnb app experience
Sure, BOP inmate discipline rules, while they have legal force, are not crimes (though a lot of the behavior they cover is also criminal, but quite often criminal prosecution will not be pursued.)

The FBI involvement, however, indicates that there at least some indications of something more than pure inmate discipline issues that not only theoretically applies, but may actually be pursued.
Except, when Amazon generates a volume greater than UPS' capability to ship, UPS absolutely negotiates infrastructure and capital investments as part of their guaranteed service contract. If Amazon is unwilling to help them increase their capacity to ship, then they throttle the amount of packages that they will ship for Amazon so as not to shut out their other customers and damage their base. These are regular negotiations between large entities entering into partnerships.

What I am saying here is that your analogies are poor because you are uneducated about the topics you are analogizing from. Which sadly, has become a good analogy for the broader Net Neutrality debate.

You might also notice that I am not advocating for the ISPs in my last post. I feel that their demands on Netflix were excessive and unrealistic. That's why I described it as the ISPs trying to soak Netflix.
Another thought (should I have edited my original post?) - this may have been a pure Customer List & Historical Data acquisition play. They may have purchased HT fully knowing that they'll lose hotel partners at contract expiration... could be next year or in 2025.
I probably would. I think the problem is that so many people associate ie/y with nicknames for kids that it biases them. I'd probably use Ron initially and then when you get to the face-to-face interview stage you can let people know that you generally go by Ronnie if they ask. HR isn't going to care what you go by online or your resume as long as the 'official' paperwork you submit is correct.

A majority of the airbnb hosts nowadays are professionally managed ones at this point. I would say out of my last 10 stays, only 2 of them were hosts who actually lived in them. Airbnb is essentially a hotel operation at this point.
Market dominance can be read as ecosystem dominance, and that reading obviously exists. More specifically, the C language could be completely worthless on its own, but made good enough to be usable through tooling (eg fuzzing, valgrind, etc). As it turns out, theres a lot more involved in writing an OS than just the language; and its all so conjoined at the hip, enough so that it makes it quite difficult to change just the language. But this is an argument that despite C’s flaws, its existence is on the whole preferrable to a total rewrite.

>If there is a safer, cheaper, faster language to use, someone would be using it

someone is using other languages. Urbit, redox, lisp machines, mirage are all not-c systems/OSs. But you aren’t talking about writing an OS, you’re talking about writing a popular OS. Of which there are basically three worth noting, all of which happen to have sprung up around a similar timeframe, coincidentally when C was at its most popular...

You seem to have confused the software industry for some kind of meritocracy... it is not. It follows trends harder than than the fashion industry. Look ...anywhere... for examples: OS, DB, language, game design and tooling, the AI winters, the .com crash, everything about the web, HN itself, etc. Hell, your own argument is just bandwagoning, with nothing about the technical merit (smarter people than I are using it, thus I should... is exactly how we end up in this state)
Note it's Managed c++/CLI, not old school original native c++1337. Why not just use C# then...? It's so much easier to write.
It's also a part of Microsoft Store development fees (similarly $99 last I checked), if you release through the Store all code signing is handled through the Store.

The kids I know (my teenage siblings) genuinely don't give a shit, and neither do their friends, or their friends' friends.

College provides TIME with no or minimal responsibilities beyond your learning. That time for self improvement is the valuable resource that doesn't really exist for most people outside of college.

Not because college is wonderful, but more because you cant get unsecured loans to sit at home and read.

(Also, pet peeve: these conversations often compare highly motivated and indepenhdent people who take the no college route to slackers who attend college.

I never see anyone pointing out the fact that highly motivated and independent people who do opt for college often do much better than they could've without the degree. Often in tippy top status/comp finance, medicine, and tech poaitions.

College doesn't make sense for everyone, but IMO it paradoxically makes the most sense for people who don't need it to enter technical fields like SWE. Because those are the ones who will end up on fast tracks after graduating that would be difficult to get on without the degree)

At first I felt the same way because I may be a beneficiary of these types of policies. Who likes being a charity case? But then I realized that this is just work, and I don't really care. If it gets me closer to a comfortable retirement more quickly, so be it. Ends, means, etc.

The problem may be not headers itself, but that there are so many ways to split the compilation and build artefacts in a project.

Java and (Turbo/Free) Pascal try to have few ways of dividing the materials: Java has class files (and Jar files, and modules), Turbo Pascal has Units. Both involve having a certain namespace correspond to some file the compiler can find and compile, and where you then use the definition from the compiled file.

Python and JavaScript/TypeScript have modules as namespaces that correspond to one source file - if you import a symbol from a module "bar/foo", the compiler will look in "bar/foo.js" (or a dozen places in node_modules, or in a dozen eggs), and if foo.js doesn't have that symbol you know something is wrong instead of wondering if there are other files that contribute to that namespace.

Lisp and C/C++ have a tradition that goes back far enough that compilation units and namespaces (packages in Common Lisp) are disjoint things. C++ is on the path to making this more complicated with the addition of modules that create another portioning of the compiled stuffs without forcing the others (headers, namespaces, source files) to agree with it.

So, headers are not the problem - it's that for a given entity in the source code (namespace, class, function, whatever) it's not automatically clear to the compiler where to look for it. Which effectively leads to the funky ball of dependencies between source files being variously manually specified in (auto-, C-)make files as well as extracted automatically and still being error-prone.

They are notably trying to redefine the term "end-to-end" which was meant to say contents are not possible to see for anyone but the parties communicating.
Law enforcements suggestion to fix end-to-end encryption for their purposes is to break/remove/circumvent the encryption, do key escrow, etc, at which point it is NOT end-to-end.
Sure that's the rhetoric. Most people don't take that completely seriously, however. (Lots of people make an exception when it benefits them to do so.) Those who take this rhetoric seriously most of the time, can be mostly avoided.

Your stance reminds me of this post:

C++ Modules - a chance to clean up the language? https://www.reddit.com/r/cpp/comments/agcw7d/c_modules_a_cha...

In short, C++ is a company-driven language instead of a community-driven one like Python and Rust. Some C practices are maintained because voters from the committee agree that these practices are necessary (for their code) and it's impossible to make a completely backward-incompatible change when they have >1M LOC code base.

At some point I really hope that data, science, facts and reason can prevail over the craziness that has taken over university campuses and society as a whole. Most reasonable people believe in the spirit of social justice etc., but the activists have turned it into a zero sum power grab that has very little to do with the stated mission. The irony is that the level of hypocrisy on that side is at the same levels as the religious person who commits all sorts of horrible acts while fervently preaching against people who are engaged those horrible acts.

Subconscious bias means your concern is applicable regardless of your skin color or gender. If you’re a white male, you could easily have been hired simply because of your skin color and gender and not your abilities. Effectively, your point is moot. Maybe worry less about the thoughts and feelings of who hired you and focus on doing your best work.

Yep, Prolog is pretty great for that kind of thing. I'm working on a project right now where I'm using Prolog (via tau-prolog) in the browser to determine permissible input options based on the user's existing selections. I'm also using it (via https://github.com/mndrix/golog) to apply those restrictions on the server, and to calculate the pricing for a configuration. In most cases I'm generating Prolog code from a collection of tick boxes, but for complex campaigns I can dig in and write a specific implementation of the required rules. Very flexible.
That's the point we are trying to make. I don't agree with this practice. I don't agree with the "Resort Fee" practice and I'd love to learn about a hotel aggregator that doesn't do this. Any recommendation?

Besides Basic English, I've run into a neat French dictionary for children, https://www.amazon.com/Mon-premier-dictionnaire-Roger-Pillet...

It sticks to a basic vocabulary, has an entry for every word it uses, and goes heavy on examples and pictures in preference to formal definitions. (And it's monolingual even though written mainly for learners in North America.)

I don't have it to check, but estimating from memory: around 2000 to 4000 words. I found it useful while bootstrapping up from Duolingo.
> We fret every day about consumption, waste, and energy,...

I'm afraid we have to keep fretting. In the Numberphile video about the number of particles in the Universe (https://youtu.be/lpj0E0a0mlU?t=378), they take an interesting diversion to ask "How long until every particle in the Universe is inside a human being?" In other words, when will we reach the ultimate limit to growth? Well, at the current annualized population growth, it's less than 9000 years! And that scenario involves every human being at that future time floating around naked in the vacuum of space. There is no food to eat, water to drink, nor air to breathe left over.

Practically, this means a couple of things that are less than obvious. First, the best case is that we will reach a point where the growth in volume of the space we occupy will exceed the speed of light. In other words, "long" before 9000 years from now, we will either establish some sort of equilibrium, or we will run up against a hard Malthusian limit. We will absolutely be concerned about "consumption, waste, and energy" in a way that is far more focused than it is now. (The only economic models that are permitted to work are zero-growth models, practically speaking.) Second, to give you an idea of how soon this is coming, the Universe is much larger than 9000 light-years across. That is to say, even if we could manage the resource usage of our 1.011% growth rate optimally, we could never actually fill the Universe in that time frame, as it would take about 15 billion years or so if we were all flinging ourselves outward at very near the speed of light. (n retrospect, these two are restatements of the same idea.)

Finally, and most dismally, the analogous calculation for the Solar System (an infinitely more reasonable calculation to perform) must be abysmally worse and monumentally more urgent. To give you an idea, the current doubling time of human population is something like 60 years. That means, for example, that if we were to anticipate that we'd run out of meaningful room on Earth in 60 years' time, we'd have to start working on our "second home" now, to have it ready. Once it was ready, we'd have to be working on two more. Then four, and so on. Good luck with that!

(Note: After we have consumed the Earth and converted it to habitats, we will have to consume Jupiter in a similar way in about 500 years. This gets out of hand very quickly.)

EDIT: El-oh-el at the few people who's fee-fees were hurt enough by this back-of-the-envelope analysis of growth rates and resource use to downvote it. Keep fighting the good fight, no matter how lonely!

> I'd hate to work somewhere knowing I was hired because the color of my skin and not my abilities.

Must be tough being a white male in tech, where people see you and don't automatically think you don't know what you're talking about. Imagine, being hired only because someone with equal qualifications missed out due to internal biases. I'd hate that too, good on you.
