Yes, and Clojure exists in opposition to static types. There is always core/typed, but Rich Hickey does not like static types and Clojure was not intended to be written in that way. These days, with languages like TypeScript on the rise, static types are more fashionable than ever whereas Clojure appears to not be having the same momentum. While I like my static types very much, it never hurts to try to understand both perspectives and what they offer. To sell Clojure these days, you first have to sell dynamic types.
I agree every interview I’ve had has just been a variation of a coder wars puzzle with no help and asking for help renders you an inferior programmer not worth their time.
Sweet! Thanks for sharing. I see you're using pure-store to manage your game state. My implementation also uses a redux pattern for state management :)
Coltrane was a towering genius, and I don't think a month has gone by in 2 decades when I haven't listened to something of his, but 'pop appeal'? I think not.
I believe there are a couple of approaches to this with varying amount of data storage, You can download all images immediately as the email is received (thus preventing image tracking as every image would then be clicked immediately) or have the ability to block all images and selectively turn them on when necessary (unless the image is inline etc).
... I'd say they're reversal agents. They make the yellow part not yellow anymore.
I had excellent experience with Sentry (https://sentry.io/welcome/) to capture errors that happen on the client side in production. You need to be careful with the sensitive data that gets sent to Sentry, but it's a good tool.

Not being affiliated with them in any way, just a tool I find helpful.

"dark age" is just something I came up with. By "dark age" I meant that there are no thermonuclear processes left providing light for us. After trillions of years the last Red Dwarf will run out of fuel and there will be no light-emitting stars left.

We don't know the scale, that's why we usually say "observable universe", but we do know the rules which apply everywhere.

"light age" or whatever you call it in this context means that there are still stars left which emit light.

After the "dark age" there will be the heat death of the universe.
Its statically typed, object oriented style is a good contrast to cljs.
This is not unique to the employment area. I got a buyout offer from one of my larger customers for my company. After a lot of back and forth the offer ended up being 2x EBITA (i.e. 2 years profit) but with a 3 year workout. Even they were sheepish after that offer. According to them this sort of offer was often accepted.

All of that is true, but all of that is easily deduced from other parts of the interview. Why ask a question when you know 2/3rds or more of your candidates are going to lie? So much of the modern interview process is essentially filtering for highly skilled liars.
Depends on the dev; most higher level coding roles require proficiency in many domains and a certain level of polish. Frequently to cover the tail of the person hiring them.

I've been paid quite a bit for coding... but the premium was due to the projects requiring: a) statistical expertise, b) finance & pricing knowledge, c) transaction system design, d) discretion to deal with HR / restructuring information, e) quality assurance required for contentious BOD projects, and f) willingness to accept a fair amount of uncertainty, screwed up schedules, and outright abuse from senior level leaders without snapping back or ripping their heads off.

Good luck finding that at boot camp!
I always liked this aspect of H.P.Lovecraft’s Chthulu mythos i.e. the allusion to the existence of pre-human civilisations (specifically in ‘Hyperborea’).

Ummmm Have you noticed that people tend to keep their distance when you talk?
I once used single bicubic Bezier patch to software compensate for optical distortion.

Worked quite well, better than my previous attempts. Before that I made user mark optical center (in my hardware usually quite far from picture center) and edit radial distortion function.

That’s when I learned these details about Bezier patches. I needed to calculate them a lot, in pixel shader that distorts some images, in vertex shaders for calibration grid, and in a few other places, that’s a complex product with my software running both on PC and embedded.
you thought it wasn't necessary because you feel I was trying to be mean to you? I thought it was necessary to remind you. did you feel I wasn't being genuine? I don't think that was necessary to take it like that. but I can definitely understand how you might feel scared you're being judged for working at a big Corp after startups.

I'm not judging you, I think big Corp is a great achievement. I am genuinely congratulating, and reminding you that big Corp is what you wanted, so you can learn to play that game. is that better now?

buy in from management is always an issue. it's just they don't want to give you the impression of friction because you've just started. they're presenting you a side they think you'll like because management has decided it's important to hire and retain talent like you.

you're not asking for life advice? you're saying that because you feel I've been giving you life advice? I can understand you really take your work personally and I think that's a good thing to be passionate at what you do. I've only given you work advice specific to the situation you describe. and I'm happy with what I've said.

but that's enough about you, I took the time to read your post and make an answer, and when you make these comments, I feel like you're making it all about you, I feel you are attacking me for that and like you're not showing any gratitude. that hurts because I just wanted to be seen for contributing my help and perspective. can you when you ask for help not only consider your feelings and also consider the feelings of those offering you help? thank you.

finally, when you ask in a public place this, the answer is not just for your benefit.

hope your new job is good.
I'm pretty sure I agree with you, but will admit it was hard for me to realize that is what you meant.

In plenty of other places it's worked hella better than what we have here.

In the meantime, you, privileged jackass, go fuck yourself and let people who are trying to solve problems do something.
Great place to run a business though... cost of living is low.

But it literally goes against the other argument. That isn't luck, that is prior choices having a larger impact than current choices.

If diet of the mother is important, we can start educating future mothers to have diets that help. Sure, there is no panacea for people with bad teeth today, but that is true for a lot of things we take corrective action on.
> You know that the Queen is still the head of state for most of the commonwealth countries?

The Commonwealth has 53 member states, only 16 of which have the Queen as the head of state. And those 16 contain only 6% of the Commonwealth's population (144 million out of 2.4 billion).

The Charleston build out just felt rushed. From the IT perspective, it felt that everything was half assed, where the thought they could just stamp Everett in South Carolina. I have memories of managers flying back to Renton to just get mundane things for the South Carolina flight line when they probably should have been installed during construction.

When I left in 2010, it became somewhat of an internal joke that you were never fired from Boeing, just sent to Charleston.

Am I overlooking something or is the "cantenna" not considered a fundamental antenna type? It does not seem to be listed in the page about different antennta types.

It seems to be quite easy to build once you find a suitable can (easier than a Yagi-Uda antenna) and it seems it can easily keep pace with a Yagi-Uda antenna of similar size.
Before the ACA, a colleague with a small consultancy (IIRC ~10 people) discussed how ridiculous the term “market” was: none of the companies would even tell him the coverage details for the plan (“each member will get a booklet”) so the idea of shopping around was positively Kafkaesque, lacking basic information and having substantial time and cost penalties if you realized you made a mistake and wanted to switch.
At least on Linux, there are already a few different GUI toolkits that custom-draw their own widgets. Presumably those projects all implement some sort of standard accessibility interface -- maybe this one could do the same?
> I've read "Code Complete", "Clean Code", "Extreme Programming Explained" and thought that "real" developers solve interesting problems and write maintainable and high-quality code covered by unit tests.

Remember that the people who wrote those books cut their teeth in the pre-web days. It was a much different world back then; there was a huge incentive to get things right the first time because patches were difficult to get to users.

Jobs like the kind you describe exist but are uncommon; usually they can be found in businesses that build tech products and platforms (software or hardware) or in the FAANG companies. Given your background, I'd suggest looking for a job at one of the games middleware companies if you haven't soured on the idea of being a developer entirely.
I don't do the 4-5 interview thing any more either. If you cannot make a determination in 1 or 2 interviews in person - in combination with my work history and references then you are wasting my time and yours.
You're correct, the statement of the theorem refers to continuous functions.

In practice, however, the input to neural networks is represented by floating point values, which is a discrete set. So pick whatever arbitrary function you would like, there is some continuous approximation to that function which is actually equal to it on every floating point value, and that function can be approximated arbitrarily closely by a neural network.
If a company X doesn't want to support something, then they should open it (source code, hardware specs, ...) so someone else can continue to support it. Always having to trash something that is working fine is stupid.

For example, I have an old iPad2 (last Apple device I bought) that is working perfectly (the hardware). But I'm not able to install anything "new" on it because iOS 9 is no more supported by applications. Why Apple doesn't open specifications so i can install Linux on it to extends its life for many years to come?

I take an example from Apple but it's applicable to ANY companies.

The better question here is: how many websites (with their own servers!) did you give full access to your email inbox?

I didn't give it out to anybody else that Google. Google I trust implicitly because they host the server, so the email is already read by them before reaching the interface. Thunderbird stores email locally doesn't need to push it out. I wouldn't give Facebook ever access to my email account.

Why should I give Darwin access AS A WEBSITE when it's not clear to me that they NEED to run their SERVER? If the interaction is done through JS entirely and the whole thing runs in the browser between me and Google, they can easily pack it as an extension.
This depends on the cosmological constant (dark energy). There are 3 scenarios: The big rip, the big crunch and equilibrium.

In the big rip scenario, dark energy will overpower all other forces and at some point space itself will expand so fast that the cosmic event horizon will be smaller than the smallest particle which means that nothing will be able to reach anything (even particles).

In the big crunch scenario expansion will stop at some point and it will reverse and in the end the whole universe will be concentrated in a point (just like before the big bang).

Equilibrium means that the expansion stops but does not reverse.

What do you mean by "surface tension"?
> NNs are good for approximation / interpolation / extrapolation

Extrapolation? I was under the impression that generalizability of NNs beyond the training data was one of the major problems faced by NNs.

There is a good pool of talent in ATL and the cost of living is low compared to SF. Kabbage, Cardlytics, and a couple others operate a model of high turnover and low pay. It costs more than the mythical man month method overall, but the output of the product group is more predicable and there is less risk of a small group of 10x engineers leaving and gutting the product team.

I wonder at what point would it make sense to start exposing a part of your "software development pipeline" to the external world and then hiring people after they've proven themselves on your pipeline (with compensation). Think lambda school but for your own company.
Note that heat death happens when the universe reaches thermal equilibrium (maximum entropy). It is theorized that sudden drops in entropy are possible which could have caused the big bang.
Indeed, you say "can I get a Coke please", not "it must be a diet Coke" - or if you do, you probably want to make it clear that you'd not consider alternatives. Similarly, enough companies use actual-must in job offerings (for all or for some requirements), and enough companies are clear about (some) requirements being a preference that expecting candidates to divine which employers do and which don't mean it when they say "must" means you'll loose out on some candidates, for no good reason.

Thanks for the pointers. I understand well how the OAuth scopes work. What I don't understand is - if the server doesn't handle my email, why does this need to be hosted on a server? Package it as a browser extension and this way I can be sure that my email is not leaked.
I really appreciated that it followed that convention because I was used to it. Also remembering 2 buttons (rotate and hold) makes it harder IMO. Being able to use up for rotate means I can just keep my finger hovered over the hold button. Then again I'm not much of a keyboard gamer.
There’s no evidence I’m aware of for large cities from that long ago, but as you said there were certainly people! I would love to have a time machine and see what the languages and cultures were like from back then. Considering how much English has changed in the last thousand years, it’s mind boggling to think of how many cultures and languages could have come and gone in 300,000 years.
Lemme clarify: your application FOR a Federal position is expected to include your PREVIOUS salaries, regardless of whether they were public or private sector. So if you are a California resident and you submit an application for a Federal position in California, but you don't disclose your previous salaries, I wonder if they consider your application incomplete? If that was used as justification for rejecting your application, would you have grounds to dispute that rejection legally?
You seem to be confounding wealth in general and land ownership. I'd be actually surprised if Norway had as inequal land ownership distribution as UK.

Yeah. I moved to the Bay Area for an interesting gig, and now I get 3-5 recruiter pitches a day, many of which are from interesting companies. Same Ruby/Js background. It’s so much recruiting it’s gone from amazing to annoying actually, but it’s a good problem to have. If you can find a way to get here I think you’ll have an easy time finding a nice job.

I'm starting to suspect that the best way to interject utter panic into a mid-level corporate interview is to mention an independent business venture.

While this may earn respect at the very top of the company from another founder or former founder, there more typically a lovely process of watching an insecure middle manager do the math about what you did and freak out....

It's a leverage thing. Companies in high cost of living locations can just wait for someone else and they will. That doesn't work in a low cost of living locations, since their isn't much urgency from the perspective of the applicant.

...yep, and the fact that the population of Scotland is tiny and over 50% of that population live in the Central belt.

Afaik, the only solid evidence against is an apparent lack of "participation" from local communities on land use. Unfortunately, this is an issue that applies as much to council as private landowners in Scotland and also tends to elicit opinions on what "should" be the case, rather than what is actually possible (i.e. people who live in the middle of nowhere complaining about the lack of economic development, complaining that the landowner isn't selling them a house at a cheap enough price, complaining that the landowner only comes up from England to shoot, etc.)

There has been an abundance of loose reasoning on that is justified only by the perception that of unfairness (and, unf, a bit of light bigotry about the English). One of the sources for the rather brief Land Commission report was some political theory on power and participation (https://landcommission.gov.scot/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/R... - Section 5 - I studied Politics postgrad btw, theory shouldn't be used this way...it is basic). Madness.

> Do you need a licence to operate a boat in Venice?

You need a licence for engines over a certain power (50 hp IIRC), but that's an Italian thing, not particular to Venice.

Plus, depending on what you do with that boat, you may need particular permits for commercial activities (to transport stuff, people, to fish).

Also consider that not all boats can go in all canals.

Eh, as someone else mentioned the soft switch, you could very easily make this teardown resistant by putting the covert power rail on an inner layer of the pcb with the switching transistor out of the way connected to vias. It’s not teardown-proof, but wouldn’t be obvious with a trivial inspection.
That's actually not true. If the punishment is severe enough then it can be made to diffuse all the way back to the shareholders in a way that they will notice, and that will eventually bring about change.

The problem is that we have insulated the shareholders from responsibility so that granny can buy blue chip stocks to fund her retirement without having to actually pay attention to the bothersome details of corporate governance. Management is doing exactly what it was hired to do: maximize granny's ROI by any means necessary.

My last job search, I was cold-called by a recruiter who was working with a local bank. Salary range was acceptable, and there were a few factors pressing for finding a job quickly.

Interviews went well, liked the people I met; things looked good. As a condition of the offer, the recruiter told me they needed my current salary. I provided that, and they dropped their offer ~$15,000 below the low end of their range because my income (in another state and a different industry) was lower.

I told them, "that's not how this works. You base your offer on what the work is worth here, not on what I was making in another role."

Walked, and got an offer two weeks later - $30,000 above their original range and no bullshit trying to tie it to my current income.

Related to AlphaZero is the Leela Chess Zero project, an independent project people from across the glob contribute CPU/GPU resources to: https://lczero.org/#tab-elo-estimates. One of the main developers on LCZero is also one of the Stockfish developers.

It's been having an interesting time in various competitions, and much like the match you point out, it makes some decidedly more "human" moves, little stabs to try and get out of a draw situation that Stockfish won't due to its hard-coded biases. Here's an interesting game from TCEC 14 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhI4DKGSjtk Ultimately it came second to Stockfish, but that was the highest placing it has had so far, and they keep refining and improving it all the time.
