Résumé/CV: https://lovescomputers.com/resume/
Email: ho.yin.cheng at lovescomputers.com

Most recently was a lead instructor at a development bootcamp teaching full stack (RoR/React). Ideally looking to continue in the education space as that is my passion, but am open to any industry. A lot of what I know is self-taught as I have a non-traditional background/career path. I took a very long hiatus from any sort of development to pursue teaching. However, I am now hoping to find the right company to reboot my career and work on production systems.

The best way to get me to open up is to ask me about my home server that I've been working on as a hobby for the past decade. If you'd like to see some of what I did as a lead instructor, you can check out this page: https://lovescomputers.com/portfolio/flatiron-school-instruc...
Have you tried any of the "tree ear" type fungi? They have a chewy+crunchy texture and bland flavor too, and I wonder if it's similar.
Communication.

It's already hard to communicate with others with slack, video,etc. Now throw in various languages and the lag of third world internet and it is pure hell.
While not exactly the sub-moon you're looking for there are some interesting objects that come close.

Co-orbital moons, like Saturn's Janus and Epimetheus, are moons that are in stable orbit-swapping configurations.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Co-orbital_configuration#Co-or...

Then you've got asteroids that are contact binaries that also have moons, like 216 Kleopatra.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/216_Kleopatra

And finally, you have 624 Hektor, which is a Trojan of Jupiter (stable solar orbit near Jupiter's L4 Lagrange point), that is a a likely contact binary that has a moon. So it's orbiting the Sun, while "orbiting" Jupiter's L4 point, while all 3 components (the two halves of the contact binary, and their moon) orbit the center of mass of their own little 'Hector system'.

Ask HN: Criteria for making a good take-home dev quiz?
I have never been a fan of the take home development test when your interviewing for a job. After hiring over the last few years I see the importance now. What are some good problems to include when creating a take home project? I assume something technically related to our product or space, but do you make them start from scratch or give them a broken app and have them fix it?
Most of the people I know in the Bay Area are leaving SF and headed to either the Peninsula or East Bay when they have kids. Most people I know with kids are in the Peninsula. I do know a couple in their 40s with kids in the city. They did the opposite, went from the Peninsula to the city years ago (before the city became very expensive).

I’d argue it’s a lifestyle decision more than anything else. Each couple or family has their own reasoning about why they moved. The attitude in the city is much more keep to yourself. Suburbs are gossipy and people tend to pay attention to everything.

I would argue there are much more ‘mega wealthy’ people outside of the city.

That level of growth is really intense. I have noticed github getting quite a lot better recently with things like go to definition support when clicking class/function names in the projects readme or code.

I wonder how well gitlab will be able to keep up with this growth given they have about 600 employees in total. Maybe they are working more efficiently because GitHub certainly isn't 40x better.
Is this unusual? There are plenty of places that are known to get hail storms, particularly on very hot and humid days. It looks like Guadalajara has the heat and humidity requirements for most of the year, so if it's unusual it must be the local weather/geography.

Get all the big companies using it, then before you know it REITs and management companies will start using it for multi-tenant residences. Boom; 3 letter agencies will start popping up arguing there's no reasonable expectation of privacy since the user agreed to a "CommunitySafe mail protection services" clause buried in the lease.
It's been a long time, but H19 rings a bell. It feels like it was the same as the Zenith terminal I used with an LSI-11 running BSD 2.8 Unix (which was Vax Unix implausibly backported; imagine virtual memory with address space for only two swappable 8k pages!), and only emulated the VT-52.

Anyway the bit layout in the 2708 EPROM it used was identical to the Videx card's. I think the fonts we used were a late development, and that for most of its life the Videx font ROM was as bad as the original terminals'. We came to realize that the verticals really needed to be two pixels wide.

Probably if we had the good sense to use an emitter follower output stage, we could have got good sharp verticals.

I need to make clear that the only connections between the terminal and card were that both used a 6845 display driver and a 2708 character ROM.
EUV, Deep Learning Issues in Mask Making
That's fascinating, and I deeply admire the kind of science that involves developing new tools to find answers.

Can I ask about the rationale motivating attempts to image DNA specifically - was it mainly that we were attempting to get better spacial understanding of the different molecular conformations it enters at different stages of the cellular cycle?

Or imaging DNA transcription? Or DNA polymerase in action?

or was imaging DNA this way an attractive goal because we already anticipated some particular applications?
I’ve traded cocktails at the Peninsula for, well, cocktails at the Maggianos, but I can park right next to the entrance and not have to drag a stroller around, so that’s pretty great.

Driving to a bar to drink alcohol is great? It's better than being able to walk to a bar or take public transit? How? To me that sounds incredibly reckless.
In fairness, "a fake so perfect, you can't tell it's fake (other than by its content)" is the work of a trained professional. Few among us message board amateurs so effortlessly reach for the sublime.
Yeah, these things are very hard to talk about precisely. "Suburb" can mean a rural wasteland with nothing for miles, or a very much urban neighborhood with tiny, connected houses with no yards.

I think it's heavily dependent on how you grew up and where you currently live. To a city dweller, a dense suburd looks like an urban waste. And to a small town dweller, even a small City feels crowded and messy.
San Francisco has seen an exodus of families because it's simply too expensive and the school system is simply a gigantic mess (more affluent families are really dissatisfied with the lottery).

It's interesting that the first two seem to be more or less universally implemented through out the world. Although the neighbor level seems to be "leave each other alone including territoriality but aid in the event of emergency".

It's interesting that many of the most notorious times are when that neighborhood level breaks down: Moments of extremely intrusive totalitarianism such as the European witch trials, China's cultural revolution, cults.

It's also interesting that people seem to naturally form similar organization up to the neighbor sized groups but above that anything can happen. I'm guessing this is the result of evolving in essentially neighborhood sized groups. I suspect there is something useful to be found in this stuff.
I got my first job with a take home project and I'm kinda terrible at programming trivia so I sort of like them.

Mine was from scratch and was a vague outline of an application and left room for me to make many decisions, add things, but still get the gist of the goal done.

The end product didn't have to be fully functioning, but just showed how it would work, etc.

Are you really that naive, or actually ill-intentioned?

I’ll assume the former. If you actually read these leaks, you’ll see there’s absolutely nothing that even indicates any kind of corruption on the part of Moro or any of the attorneys.

What you have is an unverified leak by a political activist that likes to pretend he’s a journalist, who’s married to a politician from the far left whose party would love to bring down a legally elected government.

Think about it. Who are the parties interested in voiding the Car Wash operation? This is the largest anti-corruption operation in the world. Who benefits from taking it down?

There is no shortage of proof against Lula, Cunha, Cabral and all the other politicians in jail. Do you want them free? Why?

Please don’t spread misinformation here, because unaware people might buy it due to not understanding the situation.

Believing in a conspiracy against Lula is akin to being a flat-earther. Not even he believes in that crap.

It’s not primarily an aesthetic choice it is about part count more than anything. The LCD is 10 parts and a lot of wiring. The same stuff in a trad vehicle is a thousand parts and all the same wiring and probably a display or two. It’s just more expensive to make.
It’s funny because even with capital a Agile / Scrum, in 2011 the term commitment got changed to forecast [1]. But then many companies who are dogmatic about Agile still use estimates as commitments anyway. That makes technical debt really hard to avoid... One solution is to create technical debt tickets in the backlog so people become aware of it.

>i can _bound the problem_

This is the nub of the problem when it comes to software. I understand your skepticism but software development is really very different from other activities. It is "mind-stuff" (and thus quite unstructured) which needs to be expressed in very precise language to solve an [almost always ill-defined/constantly redefined] problem. The inherent complexity involved is huge due to the number of degrees of freedom and malleability involved.

I can do no better than point you to the article "The Humble Programmer" (http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/transcriptions/EWD03xx/EW...) written by one of the pioneers of Computer Science to really understand the issues that make Software Development such a complex and difficult activity. And since then (the article is from 70's) we have made matters exponentially worse by orders of magnitude.
The problem is that they aren't as rare as they used to be, and they are pushing the overall average up. If you look at other natural phenomena, like the tide coming in, it comes in waves and each wave is higher than before. You still have moments between each wave, when it seems like it was before, but the change does happen.

Well, it's "will of some large subset of the people". It's probably not ever the will of the muggers.

In particular, it's rarely voluntary on the part of the person being arrested. And that's kind of the point. We, the majority of the people, voluntarily bestow on the police the authority to act, within limits, on our behalf, up to and including the use of force. Having done so, however, those police have (within those limits) legitimate authority even over those of us who wanted there to be a police force, even when (in that encounter) we do not voluntarily submit to them.

So: Is that a voluntary system? Yes and no. You could say it's voluntary that we set it up. But it's not voluntary when you're on the receiving end.
We’re not fucked. It’s just easier to believe that we are.

The fact is... we don’t really know what will happen. Our world will be different, some animals may be gone, some will be better off than ever, but humans will still be here. The inhabitants of Earth have survived far worse conditions and events in the past.
No, rather they had a good “I’m a freelance developer” web site that showed two things:

1) Some amount of professional experience in the technology we were looking for a contractor in.

2) An attitude that boiled down to “I write software to fulfill business objectives.” (The opposite attitude is what I characterize as the “hipster coder,” who says “I couldn’t possibly work on your legacy system unless you agree to rewrite it from scratch in $hot_new_stack.” Yes, I have literally had a contractor tell me that before, about a webapp based on a 5 year old front-end framework.)

But at the same time, I think we might be a bit to far with the current setup of the web to change this. Not saying it can't be redesigned better, though. I can't see everyone moving to "abba.food.se" or "abba.music.se", especially as domain length is at a serious premium (though my information is old and it's just a correlation, it's the best factual support I could find short-notice for what is commonly known). [0]

There's a fine line between "clogging the namespace" and commoditizing something. I like being able to have my own domain - I can host stuff, run a web site, access services with a friendly name, attach friendly names to my internal IPs, etc. Why should I have to be a legally-registered something-or-other to do that? And if I'm not, why should I have to settle for something three times as long? Most of the pollution is from squatters, who are cancerous to the internet.

The site you're linking to is junk. Your comments about records ignores the fact that the hottest record setting days are not distributed randomly, but are in fact clustered around the turn of the 21st century. On top of that, the overall science is not solely based on temperature records, but on a number of different phenomena which you completely ignore.

TL;DR, the polar ice caps are melting, as predicted by scientists; the intensity of tropical storms is increasing, as predicted by scientists; the average mean temperature has been rising steadly, as also predicted. You fail to account for these things with any alternative theory that fits the facts, and your claim that it is all "scaremongering" is dubious at best. Especially since the world's largest companies are all petrochemical and have an invested interest in creating as much FUD about climate change as possible.

Waymo is 10 years old and I wouldn't be surprised to see it shut down soon since they're clearly not hitting their milestones and Ruth Porat hates to spend so much money on technology that is so risky.
I don't know which roads the vigilantes are focusing on. But my guess is they aren't concerned with the less frequently used roads on the hillsides. They're probably more concerned with the ones that should be obvious to city officials to fix sooner rather than later. The ones that impact people significantly near the higher concentrations of homes and places of business.

The road conditions in Oakland have been this way for decades. And whenever you talk about a problem like this in Oakland, it calls forth the general condition of Oakland, which very much is a moral problem (both due to the alleged corruption that keeps it from changing as well as the fact that you can barely enter the city without being confronted by extreme poverty and people with severe mental health problems who are just left behind). The holes in the road have at least one thing in common with the overall state of the city: neglect.
