The OP has presumably already signed the contract, which means it's going to be an uphill fight to get the company to change them at this point.

There are also a number of large companies that will point blank refuse to negotiate contracts, to the point of pulling the job offer if you don't play ball. Of course they will still negotiate when they feel they need to, but you're unlikely to have the necessary leverage if you're only starting your career.

0F is also works for that application too in a slightly different way, it is when a salted road starts to freeze back and becomes slippery again.
I used stainless steel sheet. Where the anchor bolts were, a largish hole was punched in the sill plate so the stainless wasn't in contact with the iron, which would have resulted in galvanic corrosion.

The contractor groused about it, because he wasn't used to doing things that way. But he got excited about it after a while, and on his own fabricated stainless steel inserts that the windows would fit into that would prevent any leaks and rot around the windows. He was pretty proud of his work :-)

Another thing the book recommended was putting ground glass into the concrete mix, as rats won't chew it. But I didn't go that far.

The main thing is to make sure any gaps and vents have wire screens. Mice can get in where the plumbing enters the house, you can stop that by ramming steel wool between the pipe and the house.
Corporate censorship built in to my browser? I'll pass.

The selection of the algorithm is not impartial. Algorithms are chosen to maximize some quantity for the benefit of the corporation.
Frightening lack of press around this. Basically all of Intel's and AMD's lineups are centered around high thread count right now. Completely useless if I can't reasonably enable SMT.
Woosh..

That's the point!
Rather than giving the broadband away for free, Tesla vehicles gives starlink an instant customer base that is growing by 6,000 customers every month. The cars don’t require the fastest speeds - to get service comparable to cellular, the antenna for starlink can be quite a bit smaller than the 3m one for maximum performance.
I agree hallucination works as a model for some of the data. It doesn't work for multiply corroborated data from independent observers, or multi-system signals, like the visual, radar, and FLIR data. At that point it comes across as trying too hard to fit the data to the model.
Impartial as in it's not treating certain types of content differently. It's one thing if "the algorithm" decided to push (or censor) an anti-Pelosi agenda across the board, another if it pushes anti-Pelosi content to people who already are anti-Pelosi.
FOMA was an UMTS implementation also shepherded by 3GPP. This didn't stop it from being incompatible.

There's nothing "rare" and "very specific" about parallel processing, what's "rare, very specific" is the amount of software that's been rewritten/redesigned to take advantage of it so far. Sure, there are inherently-serial workloads, but most of what we use our machines for isn't like that. Parallel processing is not just about performance either but also general stability, a many-core processor can run a lot cooler and be a lot less fiddly than a high-end CPU core that packs the same amount of compute performance in a single CPU thread!
This is so shocking! I lived though this era as a young white man in California, poor but totally unaware of the inhumane conditions that the book portrays. My ignorance frightens me. I wonder what atrocities still exist in our world today, and what we can do to bring them to an end.
A High of 400/200 seems quite low. I'd definitely want a Very High of ~230-250 as well.

It seems that in the extreme ranges of numbers (150+), the propensity for errors or confusion between the two scales gets riskier .

I was having an online discussion with someone in an electronics forum the other day, and we were talking about the ideal temperature for a soldering iron for a contact point using a particular type of solder and potentiometer.

He kept talking about setting the iron at 300 degrees. Now, my iron DOES have a setting up to 400 degrees, but in Celsius. He was talking in Farenheit, and had I not double checked with him, I would have fried my electronics to a crisp.
Not specific to software engineering, but there's a very interesting book about logical fallacies and the tricks that our brain play on us, Thinking: Fast and Slow, by nobel prize winner Daniel Kahneman
My argument is not that all measurement systems are equally ergonomic, it's that you can't reach any conclusions about ergonomics by examining your subjective experience of a system you grew up with and use every day vs. one you don't.

This is what I though would be blindingly obvious, but apparently isn't.
1) Do NOT use your company provided gadgets / facilities - laptop, mobile etc to accomplish any of your personal / startup task.
2) Do NOT use company/office hours to work on your side projects.
3) Most companies do not mind their employees taking up side gigs unless it affects productivity or a competitor is involved. Talk to your manager.

FYI, I am from a developing country as well.
It's worth mentioning that cities traditionally were shared with free-roaming cats and dogs. It's only recently that we've taken them off the streets.

I'm often dismissed as some kind of a troll for advocating the reintroduction of street animals in my local town. But cats and dogs were instrumental in the development of civilisation. They control vermin, they deter wild animals, they reduce food waste, they act as an alert against violent antisocial behaviour.

We need to get rid of the idea that cities belong only to humans. Many animals belong in city ecosystems.
The best place I've worked at as a developer essentially had no process. It's also the place I really saw the benefits of having good managers (or a project manager, but here the manager took this role).

Essentially the "process" was:

- Someone gets an idea to do something, e.g. PMs wants to add a feature.

- The manager (maybe with the help of a dev) figures out which teams need to be involved (e.g. dependencies).

- Get a very rough estimate from developer. Are we talking a few days, a few weeks or a few months?

- Manager, PM and other teams get together to figure out priorities, schedules and who's likely to be working on it.

- Based on some discussions, areas of expertise etc, some number of devs gets assigned to work on this feature.

From here the devs know what they're trying to accomplish, what the constraints are and who to go to for questions (PM, design etc). They also know who else from other teams they're collaborating with and they just figure out amongst themselves how to get things done. They'll keep their managers and the PM updated on progress and any blockers.

Every once in a while manager etc have to step in. For example if some big that was previous unknown came up, there is a big risk, priorities need to be adjusted etc. But for the most part things just worked really smoothly.

Sometimes we need to give estimates and really hit it (legal or security issues, big marketing launch etc), but for the most part we were trusted to be doing things as quickly and efficiently as possible. So none of the commits, sprints and burn down charts BS. It's not hard to gauge develop's productivity based on output anyways. If there was something slowing the team down, we communicated the need to the manager and PM, and we worked on fixing it.

So for me, if you have good competent people that communicate well, you don't really need much process.
Thanks for pointing that out!

I hadn't followed the original discussion. I mistook the new license for a simplified runtime/production license. Looking at the announcement and the licensing terms again, I don't understand the benefit. At least, I don't feel more inclined to give it a try than I was before. (It's a great product but I still wouldn't base a project on it.)
They all do engage in some form of it... show me a modern Western country that doesn't have long sentences including death for sedition, subversion, or treason against "the State?" I think the only question is who gets to decide what are violations... because those charges are vague and arbitrary. Tax evasion or corruption charges have the same problem... I smile every time I read an article about someone arrested for tax evasion in Russia or corruption in China.

It doesn't. It's just a number which denotes a temperature. You'd quickly get used to celsius if you switched to it.

The °F display must use three digits as well when it's more than 37°C, which isn't that rare (at least for me, maybe not where you live).
Home markets are important for new technologies and services that build on the top of the new infrastructure. US companies and startups are not going be first to innovate 5G technologies and services if their home market is behind.

The US tech sector is already out from the main 4G/LTE/5G air infrastructure business except for components and mobile phones. There is only Eriksson, Nokia, Huawei and ZTE, Samsung is #5 with very tiny market share.
Do not do anything non-work related on company equipment! Ever, for any reason, seriously don't do it! Do not even research the idea! Assume the company is logging everything. They likely are. Honestly, I'd just focus on work and learn if you are just starting out. Learn as much as you can while employed by other folks (they are basically paying you to learn). Learn as much about the business your company is in too. For example, say you are a software dev at a VFX company. You might only care about your specific dev project in a tiny silo. But, learn the larger context of where your piece fits into the bigger company picture or industry. Learn about your company, where it fits into the bigger picture, where are things headed in your industry. This will open all types of jobs opportunities as you can pivot around in your industry. Why are you doing what you are doing? This will really help you down the road when you start your company as you want to think of the larger workflows and where you fit in. Focus on workflows as the underlining tech constantly changes (but workflows rarely do)! Running a company is a 24/7 thing, you will not get weekend or nights off, so don't burn yourself out working for someone else and doing your own thing useless you really think it will work. I have tons of 10% complete projects that I thought where good ideas but never panned out. So, just play around and see what might work. Don't take it all the way unless you are really sure.

If you want a job at something like gitlab. Hangout on their open-source project, learn their codebase, and send in patches. Even if they are simple docs patches. Send in 50 of those and you will start to learn the devs. Ask one of them what it is like to work there, ask them to refer you, etc. The CEO of gitlab is constantly on HN (I swear he has an alert for mention of gitlab). So, he will likely see this post. My point, take some initiative and try not to go through the conventional recruiter pipe (apply on website and no one ever gets back to you cycle). Doing this, has worked out really well for me in the past, and it will work for you too. Sure, it is more work but gets you ahead of everyone else as you are making an effort. Be strategic about this and really choose who you want to work for and go after them. Having something like, hey, I patched 50 minor typos in your code/docs goes a long way, between you and some nobody!

Yes, light is 100% photons, or your money back.

Considering that the overwhelming majority of the plasma in the universe is in interstellar space: no, extreme pressures and temperatures are not necessary.

The absolute requirement is an ionization rate of more than 0.01%: more than one ion per 10000 neutral atoms. (Above that, regular gas dynamics don't work, and you need plasma dynamics.) This can be achieved by high-ish temperatures, or ionizing radiation, or various physical processes involving strong and varying electric and magnetic fields.

Plasma dynamics are interesting because positive ions are at least 2K more massive than electrons. Any field that pushes the positive cores one way pushes the electrons 2k times faster in the other direction. Which, of couse generates other fields, and likely x-rays, too.

Whenever you see some astronomy source claiming that x-rays imply a weirdly high temperature, you can be smug knowing that plasma is happy to emit x-rays at any temperature.

Isn't the problem also about the 2D aspect of cities and the fact that certain jobs tend to accumulate in certain spots/centers?

So, no matter what, you get a certain radius around which you can actually live and humanely commute to work.

Basically you cannot actually scale a 2D structure beyond a certain point?

>Not a single one of these vulnerabilities has been used to cause any measurable damage anywhere that we know of, whereas the mitigations deployed have significant costs that everyone must pay.

That's like saying: "nobody was drowned that we know of, whereas there was a significant cost to building the dam that everyone paid". (And also not dissimilar to arguments about doing no major industry/lifestyle changes regarding climate change).

It's exactly because there were mitigations relatively quickly deployed that we didn't have a "hack em all" exploit doing the rounds in hundreds of millions of devices. The difficulty of exploiting also gave some leeway to deploying those mitigations.
Do dial temperatures actually correlate to internal temperatures accurately at all? From what I've seen it differs wildly from oven to oven and you're better off just learning where the low, medium and high spots are.
Nonsense. In the past few months a hiker was killed, a young child attacked, and multiple other people were attacked. We can't "get along". The best thing for both cougars and humans is to stay out of each other's way.

>I'm making the point that often times, appealing to authority is most likely to produce the correct answer.

That's true for most so-called fallacies. Instead they are evolutionary shortcuts to getting the correct answer (at least at evolutionary kind of situations).
That's OK, cooking in the US is weird - they use cups in their recipes that are a different size from those used in the rest of the world - because of course they use fluid ounces/gallons/etc that are a different size from Imperial cups/flu ozs/gallons, much less different from a standard 250g metric cup
Oh right, I thought it was for the external temperature sensor.

Yeah, climate control won't go that far of course. It also does use half degrees (only between 19°C and 23°C in my car).
Sure, but i wouldn't be surprised if the people would soon start wanting "more" (or at least, starting to understand that there are substantial differences with what the rest of the world can or cannot do).
> Create tickets for debt, put them on the backlog.

That will risk making a huge technical debt section in the backlog that will find it hard to get priority. It's better to condition new features/bugfixes on the cleanup that caused them. "I can add this feature in 1 day but will need 4 days to clean it up. So my estimate is a week." I constantly nag developers to do this when they find that they are pressed for time and want to make a hack.

-"I'm nearly done but I can't find a nice way of doing this because of an existing code smell so I'm considering adding another smell"

-"Did you ever find that this was NOT the case?"

-"No..."

-"So do you always double or triple your estimates so you know you can comfortably refactor"

-"No..."

I think this is a disease of Scrum. Too short estimates exist because developers pat themselves on the back for finishing things quickly.
This is the great con of scrum certification — you can always point to some team and say “well that’s not the official version of scrum”
I don’t know whether Apple picked this variant on purpose, but it is culturally neutral. It doesn’t make the Chinese complain “why did they pick a Japanese abacus” and vice versa.

I also somewhat fear Unicode 17 or thereabouts will allow users to pick the variant they want.
> Heck, NetBSD still supports VAX.

I wonder about the level of VAX support. Do they just have old code lying in the repository, do they build it, or do the devs actually have a working VAX machine and they test new builds?
Winning your consumers by understanding their emotions
The point I'm trying to make is that if 0-100 is a useful mental range, and people seem to be arguing that it is given boiling and freezing points, then for the range of temperatures humans can reasonably occupy the scale should be as close to that range as possible.

This is different from an intuition argument. My wife, an Australian, finds nothing intuitive about 72 F as room temperature, just as I don't find anything intuitive about 22 C. You're right I'd adapt if I had to, but no one lives anywhere for very long at 72 C.
DHH has a nice methodology that works with fixed deadlines: his basic rule is that features can be dropped/simplified, but deadlines must be met.

We have the word already in art, it's a sketch or diorama - something known to not be an accurate representation.

Or just call it a simplification instead of a model. It's a subset of all models. Alternatively, an explanation of it captures all the detail.

Model is combined with another interesting word, essence as in essential, which is what it's supposed to capture, for given purpose.

If the purpose of the model is explanatory power and accuracy, these two do not necessarily form a one dimensional trade-off.
