I’ve had several great connections and solid job interviews, as well as my current role at the USDS.

I am currently* a “Senior/Lead SWE” that’s flirted a lot with SRE.

Earlier in my career it was a lot harder to get responses, but still managed to get an interview or three out of it.
That's the problem I've been seeing in non tech based companies. IOW when tech isn't what they're selling.

One thing I learned while reading on HN is that there is never ever any kind of job posting from battery companies. There is much much secrecy about what the battery companies are doing (for obvious reasons). Due to this, they contact Masters/Phd student directly for possible job offers based on research papers and/or word of mouth.

They supposedly do not post any job postings.

This exists, but it's only good for "cold patch," meaning temporary fixes.
> I agree with your questioning, but find it a bit odd to do so in response to this particular paper if you're really not suggesting some sort of political bias.

Sorry if this wasn't clear: I am (or was, see the following graf) suggesting a political bias (or at the very least a willingness to turn a blind eye).

I also just realized that this paper and summary were published in 2013, not this year. I don't know enough about Australian politics to know how independent CSIRO was then, but it's very possible that I'm wrong in impugning motives.

In any case, I think the hazard is still present: positive emphasis on the silver lining of what is otherwise an unmitigated disaster gives ammunition to denialists and (undeserved) psychological reprieve to the rest of us.
I'm not sure where you're coming from, but when I'm looking for a job, I pay attention to the tools that companies have picked, and if I get the chance to ask them, why. A company that picks good tools is a lot more attractive to me. All other thigns being equal, if I had to choose between a company that used JS, and one that used JS and one that used Elm, I would prefer the Elm one. I've never written a line of Elm before.

I'm willing and happy to learn new tools. I'm happy with hiking in flip-flops if that's all that's available, but I'd certainly choose hiking boots if given the choice. I suspect most "good" developers have the same attitude.
I have, some (I mainly bought it as a reward for the time I spent on the original; same for Spelunky and Cave Story+) Nowhere near as much as the original. I think the time I spent on the original was a function of boredom.

Right as GigaFactory was being planned/announced, there was much speculation/rumors on internet that Tesla was having talks with Samsung about possibly working together to build the gigafactory. I wonder what happened to it...
I'm excited by the idea but I have to agree with an analysis by Frooglesim: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbTSy409BjY).

Microsoft has closed down their Flight Simulation franchise twice now, presumably because it became unprofitable.
Microsoft isn't launching this new simulator for nostalgic reasons - they are a business.

This next incarnation, as many have speculated, will almost certainly NOT be a program you install locally. So what happens when the servers go down, or your internet connection is not working?

Most importantly: Many people are speculating that 3rd party content will only be available through MS's online store. So not only is the simulator NOT installed locally, any add-on aircraft or scenery you purchase will also only exist in your online account.

People could easily spend several hundred dollars for add-on aircraft and scenery, so what happens if this venture isn't the success MS hopes it will be? They may close it down again and this time, all your stuff goes "POOF". Do you get a refund? I think not.
Whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute. Argument by credential is a logical fallacy. It may be used in defense of a true point, but we should be very hesitant to assume because most/some/many experts agree on a point that the thinking is done.

Now, I agree with you that climate science and forecasting is complex. However, the reports are public and known for anyone doubting, and the organization is highly transparent[0].

Also Maxwell's ultracapacitors are spectacular, and could enable a lot of high end features and/or improve regenerative braking across the board. On the high performance models, the motors already tend to move more power than warm summer tires in the dry can even transmit; I'm not sure what the ratio of regen to mechanical/heat braking currently is, but it seems like they could do most non-emergency braking through the motors. Not sure if the batteries are the limiting factor on that right now though.

I thought the denialists had moved on from "it's not warming" to "it's not caused by humans" once the evidence for "it is infact warming" became undeniable even to the layman. Why do you seem to expect people to take you seriously?

Edit: I dug through their comment history - seems that they think that there's a global conspiracy to fudge collected climate data. Would be nice if they mentioned that in their comments rather than just pretending that everyone must agree with them.

To the person I'm responding to: You're doing the classic thing that everyone with extremist opinions seems to do - you're making the thing that everyone else is likely to disagree with your unspoken axiom (in your case it's that people are faking climate data), and then in the bit you actually type out for everyone to see you're following on fairly logically from that unspoken axiom.

This results in you looking vaguely reasonable to the layperson that isn't paying much attention, and utterly baffling to anyone who has half a clue and reads your words carefully.

If you genuinely believe what you're saying you need to state the aforementioned unspoken axiom clearly, and provide evidence for it before you can hope to engage in honest discussion with anyone.

No, not really. All they need to know is the source of their traffic and how well it's converting. That source isn't paying for itself? Cut it and divert the budget to one that is.

Reporter: It's nice to meet you. Thanks for taking the time.
Official: You look quite young.

Me: Oh yeah? That is what you going to say when you met a Reporter? Huawei? (Young could also imply "inexperienced")

Also, Huawei already know the age of the reporter, saying he was born in 1997. Is this normal? To speak somebody's age out loud and laugh like that?

Plus, she can't even pronounce Chinese correctly. At 5:01, she said Li'Shen'Zi'Ben, it should be Li'Shen'Zhi'Ben (立身之本).

Plus plus: https://youtu.be/QxR0dNR7qrw?t=372. She can't answer that? I guess she is expecting the reporter to come here just for walking the park.

My conclusion: This woman should not be qualified for she's job. I guess you could only hire this level of workers (and probably force them to work 996) if your company don't have the spirit.

BTW: It seems somebody is down voting negative comments against Huawei. For those, one lesson here is, Karma means nothing to me, take more than just that to change my opinion.

This approach doesn't prevent your email address from being clogged with recruiter spam, unless you want to maintain filters forever, and as another says, the real email is still there. I don't even use the same domain as my real email. Jumping in exposes one to a subset of misbehaving recruiters, those making a bad name for the rest, an experience comparable to taking a bath in shit and I don't want to taint my daily life with its rank smell once I'm done prospecting.

It seems like sometimes event sourcing is what happens when someone hears a requirement for audit logs and instead of just setting up the database audit logging system they decide to completely re-architect their entire system. So in the end it is more fun but often not necessary.

That's only relevant if the feature is being used between bouncers and clients with existing servers.

While this is certainly the initial deployment scenario, there's no reason in principle why you couldn't develop a server that natively supports that extension.

About the job:

Position is from now until March. Three days a week on my project gets you a free room and free food. Creating a Patreon meets Reddit kinda site. User pays $5/mo, we take $1 to run the servers without ads or tracking, then the remaining $4 gets split evenly between everything they upvoted that month. Philosphies I'm going into this with: Entirely open source, no ads ever, all analytics are purely opt-in. I'm a front end guy and right now I'm grinding my gears with the backend, so anyone that can create node apis secured with JWTs is really who I need. Big bonus points if you've worked with Stripe's API or cloud storage before. If you're interested in the roadmap for what you'd be doing, I have an 8 week sprint planned out here: https://github.com/jjcm/soci/milestones?direction=asc&sort=t...

In most relational database management systems (RDBMS) views are not persisted/materialized or indexed separately.

Some RDBMS have materialized views that update concurrently and meet atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) requirements, but others do not and a separate command is needed to update views, in those cases you lose many of the benefits, but the view is fine for say, analytical queries in which a little lag is fine.

I am personally a fan of temporal tables, a technique in which rows are versioned, and you can query for the state of the database "at" a point in time. Here support is even less uniform than with materialized views, but if you have control over your database access layer or object relational mapping, you can brew your own. This gives you history if you need it (rare, but incredibly helpful) and fine grained control over indexing.

I recommend the latter approach for anyone looking to implement event sourcing and auditing. Including in each table a column for the source or cause of a change for example gives you an audit log for almost free.

How do you deal with IdP/AS mix-up?

The BCP recommends either sending back client_id and iss (but that draft[1] is long expired, and nobody seems to support that implementation), or asking the client to provider a separate exact-match return URI for each AS. The second solution is what I'm doing when implementing multi-AS/IdP OAuth clients, but this requires the clients to be aware of this vulnerability, and that's a rather tall requirement.

Your question reminded me of the purported efforts of one of the male children of the Lykov family (the family separated from civilisation in deep Siberia):

> Lacking guns and even bows, they could hunt only by digging traps or pursuing prey across the mountains until the animals collapsed from exhaustion. Dmitry built up astonishing endurance, and could hunt barefoot in winter, sometimes returning to the hut after several days, having slept in the open in 40 degrees of frost, a young elk across his shoulders.

I've spent many months cycling and walking throughout the US, mainly in the 2000s; it was striking to me to learn how scared some people are of the world around them.

I could imagine your story playing out anywhere - someone saying "it's too dangerous to do that here", doesn't actually mean much about the actual danger.
Dumb question: if you reduce the cost of temporary fixes enough, does that become a good permanent strategy?

I'd imagine best practices are currently designed with a large per-issue overhead in mind. Getting men & material to a given location is expensive, so fixes need to last. If you have a robot that doesn't mind finding & resurfacing the same damn pothole every time it rains, would that compete?
