As someone who's hiring folks right now, a shocking trend is applicants who chained expensive middle tier private college expenses with middle to low tier private college masters programs - often times unrelated to the ultimately role they're applying to now.

These investments aren't setting them up to be compelling candidates against folks who have equal and sometimes lesser tier schools as their undergraduate education coupled with meaningful real world experience. This carries over to performance in interviews as it related to applied knowledge as well. I'd say when putting a risk lens to this, it doesn't bode well for the likelyhood of timely repayment of this debt at scale.
Whenever I have challenges that are difficult to Google (architectural, lots of different views/opinions etc all of highly technical nature) I feel that I don't ask, because as others mentioned here; asking for time face to face is so much easier and better than setting up a Zoom call. I feel the same for all interactions, whenever I'm alone at the office I always tend to save interactions to whenever people get in because Slack/email/hangouts always incur a cost to communication. This said, ppl should def be able to do remote, however getting people in to the office sometimes still has a lot of value.
If you do that, those things will likely be destroyed. Do you really think that shipping artifacts back to Syria is going to result in those artifacts lasting for centuries more?
"Australia is flexing its anti-speech authority, asserting the power to control what its subjects are allowed to talk about."

The state absolutely has that responsibility, and there isn't even a debate about that in general.

You cannot publish pictures of your naked girlfriend, or private medical records, or private e-mails of some employee of ABC corp, or of some bureaucrat, or of some military technology etc..

There's no debate there.

So then the question becomes - "What information that is nominally protected by law (say for example, classified material), rises to the level of evidence of criminal activity and therefore newsworthy, by law"

That's a razor's edge, and that has to be sorted out if we want to live in a world where our privacy is protected but the at the same time legit crimes are called out.
If they are a publisher, then I can sue them for users posting false information about me or putting me in harm's way.
You can disable WiFi quickly by swiping down (from the top right) to bring up control center and then tapping the WiFi button.
I feel that SQL queries that people will need help with are not the SQL 101 examples shown here.

Looking at the queries I write as a product manager, I wouldn't have the slightest clue how to translate them to English. How do you LEFT JOIN on a relation and fetch NTiles on a calculated value from three different tables? Surely this will require some English-to-schema dictionary that someone who knows SQL will have to maintain.
Yes but permaculture is not scalable for big companies, since it requires a lot of skilled labors. You cannot use one big tractor for a huge perma field and be done with it. And they dictate the market.
Ask HN: Why did web-based operating systems never become mainstream?
Everyone advocates for violence in some circumstances, except perfect pacifists.
If YouTube wants to be treated like a TV station who can choose what to air, then they need to stop receiving the benefits of section 230. If they are allowed to choose what content is allowed and what is not, then they must be held directly accountable for the content that they don't remove. This includes content that infringes copyright, content that is illegal, etc. They can't have both.
my first idea was to use glfw indeed, but i took SDL cause it's easier to set up and it gives me audio, image loading/parsing and input.

The project will not stick to SDL anyways, the idea is to use it as a high level API, not to build a game with SDL.
I would like to use this engine for PSP also, and i'll have to take SDL out and put osLib in. problems for future me...
Or the right to install spyware.
You appear to not be understanding my point. The videos being removed are not some "radical right" that serves as the opposite of your definition of "radical left". They are "channels that advocate for neo-Nazism, white supremacy and other bigoted ideologies". BLM, Antifa, etc. are not the "left" equivalent of these "right" viewpoints.
In all my gamedev I've found that the best structure was how Lua does meta-tables.

You can then use that simple mechanism to implement inheritance, component based design, message passing or whatever structure makes the most sense for your game design. I'm personally tend to lean towards component based for reusability and performance but that's by no means a hard-and-fast rule.
Just like how all the massive big pharma fines which consistently continue to happen every year will changes things? (this list only goes until 2013).

An Inside Look at Google Earth Timelapse
Every video on his website has pretty great annotations placed on top of them which describes every section of every video, and all the questions at the end of session QA.

Go to https://handmadehero.org/watch and scroll down the previous episodes section.

Also all the episodes aren't as long as they look, a large chunk of the time is on the QA at the end. That said it is a huge investment at this point, but definitely worth it. Some of his high-level ideas are great, and I've learned a lot.
It's normal in suburban America and much of urban America as well, outside of the largest few cities. I'm not saying it's good or bad, but it is normal here.

>My guess is to prevent ad-fraud by website owners. It's a lot harder to detect fraudulent clicks/impressions if all data are routed through website.

Isn't the solution to that problem a flat rate fee (similar to how advertisements on tv, newspapers and magazines work)?

Instead of a pay-per-click it could be a simple $X dollars and your ad will be visible for Y days/weeks.
What I worry here is that the extremity of a view will vary depending on how close it is to your own beliefs. Extremists don’t self identify as extremists, so the question is where does YouTube’s temperament lie?
The only advantage I can see to going for an MS straight out of undergrad is that your lifestyle should be pretty low-rent.

But doing grad school because you're good at school and don't know what else to do is a trap lots of otherwise smart people fall into.
This is moreso "how to start using SDL2".

These tutorials exist and are really well thought out here: https://lazyfoo.net/tutorials/SDL/
Amsterdam Schiphol not once managed to transfer my bag if my transfer time was less than 1.5h.

I asked them and they said it was normal.
in office or not, managers and teams should be monitoring contributions

Your version control system and ticketing system should be able to identify things like this.

If not, then nobody's minding the store, and that's why things aren't working. Not cos people are working remotely.
Or if you have concerns about high levels of immigration and it’s relationship to overall cohesion of society.

Views that were nominally conservative not long ago (and were actually also held by a lot of democrats) get recast as “Nazi!!1!1” in today’s environment. Weird historical inflection point we’re at.
Perhaps you should have written your initial interjection with the same precision you now seek to apply. Since it was written in English, I invite you to reflect on how it might be received by the unwary reader.

The netcode seems to be working great for me. Controls are not what I expect based on the space-shooters I've played, but I eventually got the hang of them. Ship to ship collisions would be nice.
I think this is a great idea, security-wise. I prefer my installations to have as few attack vectors as possible. So having as few things enabled/installed by default is awesome.
but my guess is that the period of china stealing ip (which is an obvious fact that has happened over decades) is only temporary in the grand scheme of things in that it won't last forever. this is because china has stolen ideas, concepts, and direct designs to catch up but is now in many areas surpassing product design in the u.s. so this idea that u.s. design and development > chinese design and development won't last and is already breaking down. thus, the u.s. is in real danger since china has all the manufacturing ability. so yea, china has stolen and ignored ip laws, but that soon won't even matter. that's at least my prediction.

i have a friend in a u.s. technology company, and they simply cannot beat the chinese version of their product in both price and features despite being the creator of the product category decades ahead of others. the chinese companies copied the design but have now exceeded it, so the u.s. product does very poorly in china.

so what it sounds like to me is that the u.s. sees the writing on the wall, which is all due to their own actions and corporate greed over the past few decades, and so now is making a hail mary in a trade war. it doesn't seem like a good idea when it likely won't be long until china has the upper hand.

so it seems it basically comes down to trump taking his poor understanding of dynamics and abusing the u.s. government's and people's need for a "war".
That crosses into personal attack, which we ban people for, and name-calling, which the site guidelines ask you not to do.

Would you mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the spirit of this site more to heart? If you know more than others, the thing to do here is not to put others down, but to offer some of what you know, so we all can learn. Or you can ask about why they did X rather than Y. Perhaps they also know quite a bit, and chose X for an interesting reason.
Why do you think there needs to be one besides a politician wanting to look tough in front of constituents?
Protip: If things get this far, it's the manager's fault. I've been remote before and also managed remote ICs, and you learn who needs the frequent checkins and status updates and who can be left more to their own devices. I had someone waste 2 weeks going down a useless rathole, and I learned quickly that I needed to be more involved with their prioritization and planning, and that was on me. It didn't happen again.
Wow man, how deeply antisemitic of you. Are you somehow suggesting we should not import these people into the first world to enrich us?

I watched Gattaca and drew the opposite conclusion. The film defends science through by walking us through the consequences of clinging to the superstition of our ancestors. Being genetically inferior does not wipe away the human drives to belong and achieve. The life of those less fortunate is harder and it is dishonest to pretend that everyone has an equally fantastic life. The main character suffers because of the careless choice his parents made. Even though his parents change their views and recant with their second child, the protagonist remains left behind.

In the world of Gattaca we see that only a few religious nut jobs inflict natural conception on their children. They are called god-born because they are the product of religious extremists. Genetic engineering is common and accessible to all classes. For example portable genetic testing services so ubiquitous that they are available at company party.

As viewers, we should take away what I means to choose to cripple another human permanently. You should think long and hard about winning Jesus points for a second life by consigning a real person with the same ability to feel and dream to Hell in this life.
Forks can be patched. Otherwise, what's the point of maintaining a fork?

Although a small team of occasional volunteers might not have the resources to maintain this, you can be sure that Microsoft does. It's also considerably easier than doing it all yourself like Firefox.
Not good. What's "extreme"? Medicare for All? Brietbart News? Islam? Haredi? School shootings? Kim Jong-un? Putin? Trump?

YouTube already tries to transcribe videos to text. Is it within the state of the art to recognize common false statements and superimpose a crawl with counterarguments? One thing you have going for you is that the nuts aren't that original. If you had a classifier that could pick up the 100 best known nutty statements, you could do this.

Is there a startup in this?

Marginalizing a group of individuals for nothing but their culture is a violation of individual rights if you ask me.

Amazon Unveils Futuristic Helicopter-Plane Hybrid Drone for Deliveries
Its the "nobody ever got fired for choosing IBM" issue.

In-person employment has "worked" forever, for some definition of "worked." Its difficult to trade something that we all know to something that is new and has a lot of unknowns.
By the 'end to end principle', redundancy should probably be concentrated somewhere in the stack, and the rest of the stack should be concerned merely with validating integrity. It's unlikely that the optimum balance of resources and loss probability will entail redundancy at every level of the stack, from raw HDD bytes up to the global system level.
This is a link that directly repeats the claim I just made, in more detail. Both elements are present in these cases: the planting of licensed seed, and the subsequent application of glyphosate to that crop. If you spray non-GM soybean crops with Roundup, you kill the crop.
good thing this is not an SDL tutorial xD

i'll address that things when needed but the project has like 500 lines, don't think that momment is now, to be honest...

Anyways, thanks for your support, lovely fellow
The thing is that those definitions aren't unambiguously definable to humans let alone machines which can't tell. Who defines extreme? Who defines dishonest? Not to mention context and satire. If I suggest killing all the lawyers am I quoting Shakespeare, joking, or trying to incite violence?

Anyone capable of doing so is clearly capable of heading a Unicorn start up which isn't overvalued.

Large tech companies frequently receive demands for the literally impossible like backdoors which don't compromise security.
Pay attention to your ‘extreme consumers’
>I assume based on my own use of it and pretty much all the memes and anecdotes from everyone.

Well, now that its clear that it is simply an assumption/speculation, then I have no problem with anything you say. Your original comment seemed to imply that this is a demonstrable fact.

>It’s not the platforms job to challenge one’s views, rather one’s views are naturally challenged when in an open marketplace of ideas.

And you counter extreme ideas, with better ideas of your own - in this same open marketplace of ideas.

>YouTube isn’t an open marketplace of ideas.

Right, because YouTube seems to think that some ideas are verboten, and simply should not exist which is why they are removing those videos. Are you in favor of removing these videos?
"But what about..."

"But what about..."

NO. We're talking about people who want to exterminate other people. We know that because the last time they got power, we had mass executions (Holocaust), lynchings, and a century of extreme segregation.

This isn't a 'what-if'. We know what happened the last time.

Never again.
France to propose new tax on flights in Europe

This! Windows got split up internally under Nadella into Azure and Office groups.

If anything, a lot of this means they're also boosting Azure even more by doing the same thing with their enterprise database areas. This is a boon for any organizations stuck in Oracle data land that haven't gotten heavily into cloud yet or are unsure about jumping to Azure.

Now moving to Azure doesn't just mean sticking with the SQL Server landscape, and possibly also means you can get some analytical and data replication stuff tied into Azure Data Factory, CosmoDB, etc. a little more cleanly.

Amazon has a tool to migrate or duplicate from Oracle to RDS, but with Azure you can just be cloud native! (Not sure it will work that well, but could be a selling point).
No one goes to jail because we're talking about littering. It's just not a big enough deal. Given the severity of the underlying crime, a $20M fine is massive.

> programming MMORPGs is mostly treated as cheating

WoW, by far the most successful and influential MMORPG ever made, has a large API surface for displaying in-game information and automating certain actions, and it has a large mod scene that takes advantage of it.
How about PHP devs? Furries? Racists? KKK members? Pedophile activism? Nationalism? Pro-EU content?

I will happily allege that people who aren’t racist are superior, and that racists should be discriminated against, segregated, and excluded wherever possible. Is that video permitted?

YouTube is going too far. This will either be the biggest footgun due to unintended blast radius, or will be selectively enforced so that they have an excuse to editorialize and shut down stuff they or their advertisers personally find icky (entirely subjectively) while ignoring other stuff that breaks these rules.
What is the energy source for that? Solar? Is it therefore possible to have enough solar energy to operate the machinery with enough to pull out and keep on going? And wouldn't you need a tremendous amount of batteries as well? Would seem there would be an environmental impact that could far exceed some kind of potential 'safe' chemical solutions.
>What features are missing? I use Google Docs in firefox and haven't noticed anything wrong.

Tracking and cookie slurping.

I've noticed that if you turn on privacy protections in firefox, all google sites start misbehaving. And forget about trying to get through a recaptcha without spending minutes clicking on crossroads.
> "check their privilege" [...] (which one could argue is an attempt to justify exclusion)?

If you can make the case, maybe. I mean, it sounds like a kind of insane case to make to me. Who's being excluded, and from what, merely by having their assumptions challenged in a discussion context?

The groups actually being targetted are ones that tend to advocate for the status of the US as an inherently white nation. Sort of an easier sell to my mind.
It's amazing how most Indians believe that Hindi is the national language of India, when there's no such as a national language in India.

There are two official languages for union government communication - Hindi and English.

I've also noticed that a lot of non Indians find it funny that most Indians here in bay area companies communicate among themselves in heavily accented English instead of The Indian language.

If a private developer were to take over most residential areas in a section of town, they would be responsible for providing public access, affordable housing, and other responsibilities normally associated with the government. This is enshrined in law - a private company that is the de-facto entity for a particular function gains the responsibilities of acting as a government entity.

Since YouTube has a monopoly on video content on the internet, it may be reasonable to require YouTube to take on responsibilities normally handled by the government, such as ensuring the freedom of speech on their platform.
It is, indeed, a cynical statement. But it gets to the very reason why we aren't looking closely enough at the potential social costs.

As an aside, I think the conventional wisdom reading of Adam Smith, that somehow selfishness begets virtue, was not the author's intent, and is mostly just a self-serving rationalization. At the very least, it ignores the ways that selfish action can turn toxic - deception, corruption, theft, and of course externalized costs.
As someone with only a vague understanding of what neural _DEs are, could someone comment or point me to an article about what they might be useful for? I think I get why they're interesting but I was curious if there are any obvious applications them that do things more conventional methods don't.
War probably. The issue with disconnecting our economy from China is there will no longer be anything stopping a full fledged war in the South China Sea
On "cool, smart, or successful" and "deserving of happiness", you might want to hear what the Stoic philosopher, Epictetus, had to say:

One central message [of his book, "Discourses, Fragments, Handbook"] is that the basis for happiness or well-being is 'up to us' and that we all have the capacity to move towards this state, regardless of our specific social context or individual character. [...] Epictetus also stresses that this capacity forms an integral and inalienable part of what makes human beings distinctive in the natural universe, as well as the prime expression of what is 'divine' within us.
"Martyr" is probably more apt.

> The presence of an TLS/SSL indicator and a valid certificate are not enough to consider a website is legitimate because certificates can now be easily obtained for free, so most phishing sites will be HTTPS-enabled.

That's untrue for sites implemented with trust-on-first-use techniques like HTTP Public Key Pinning(HPKP). Also even though TLS certificates are easier to acquire these days, it's still a good way to tell proxy HTTPS site by checking the "domain name" or "subjective alternative names" fields on the TLS certificate to verify identity. Additionally, all TLS certificates are logged to Certificate Transparency logs that's available publically.
Actually, for the most part, they do go away. In both cases, if you live in the USA, your probability of encountering either is vanishingly small, so if you don't have the news pumping up and amplifying these incredibly rare events, you can trundle along blissfully and deal with the local problems that actually impact you.
Finally, giant corporations are deciding what is and isn't true on their global-scale platforms. As epistemology and history teaches us, the means to human progress is cementing the status-quo, via giving a small group of unaccountable, politically/profit-motivated bureaucrats the means for unilateral censorship.
