> One time I had a colony of ants build up inside an APC UPS. Every day, the system would make a little popping sound, then switch to battery inversion for about two seconds, then switch back to mains. For the longest time I was baffled.

> Then one day I noticed some ants making a trail and investigated. It was crazy how many ants were living inside it. Apparently, every once in a while an ant would come too close to crossing the AC wires and the power would short through it, killing the ant instantly and causing the protection circuit to put it on battery.

> I find myself wondering if a similar ant infestation would destroy the RasPi.
Wow, thank you. I'd always wondered about the whole theory of missing terms for colors, as it had seemed like something wasn't adding up.... but your explanation makes so much more sense. Much appreciated.
Ideally we'd get rid of the discrete CPU altogether for systems like this. Mellanox attempted to do this with their bluefield box, which essentially put arm cores on the nics, and let them control the transfers to storage. There's really no reason to have a dual Xeon system when you're just rdma'ing to storage. Now, if we can only have that for GPU, but CUDA no longer supports arm outside of tegra.
How do you "press" an organization? Every time I've tried to ask someone where they got my info they either ignored it or refused to tell me. Did you have some kind of leverage over the ACM?

So introducing AI is not unlike the innovator dilemma, it will push human lawyers up and up. However, I think that even if the demand is not fixed, most of it is for basic legal services.

There is, about insisting on it. Especially since the Greek in question says nothing about "dark" or about "blue".
10% not including payment processing fees. I know they need to keep the lights on but that seems steep to me.
Then mathematics must also be different. And physics. And many other areas. How come the journal costs are still as high there?
Amazon's delivery drivers are more similar to Uber/Lyft drivers. They get minimal to no training and simply follow instructions via the app. Some of them have documented the experience on youtube and it's worth a watch. They often have to accept the route with minimal information.
There is the serious end of the security business, the service end, and the fake end. Plus of course all the black-hat ends.

If you want to be in the serious end, which doesn't necessarily pay more than any other software job but can be really interesting work, I would suggest learning about anti-virus and similar attacks (there are books and tutorials) and generally making your server software game as strong as possible. Then get a job with a security company at whatever level and bust your ass looking for challenges. You can rise very quickly if you can move the dial for the customers, and "smart and gets things done" plus "gives a shit about security" is a rarer combination than you'd think.

The service part, e.g. your pen-test company, is going to be much more mercenary. Great experience if you can get it, and probably a good space to start your own company in, but of very limited value in the big world. Security companies will have huge annual contracts, pen-testers and the like will be called in occasionally to check off a box on a security audit. Either one can work for you, but it's best to know what you're getting into.

The fake end of course is companies promising something they won't actually deliver, or will deliver with gross violations of ethics and/or the law. Obviously avoid these as best you can -- for the more serious companies, having your name associated with "SEO" or other spammers can permanently blacklist you from employment at least in the US, obviously the dodgier the play the greater risk of blacklisting. Hiring managers worth their salt have a nose for this, since Ethics is way more important than Skillz for any serious security job.

In case the black-hat part isn't obvious: in many places word gets around if a talented hacker is interested in security. Mafia is mafia even for us nerds. If something sounds suspicious, I strongly suggest you don't take the meeting. (This may be less of an issue in the US.)

Best of luck to you! The world needs more smart people working for a safer Internet!
Many small boats have an oil injection system that injects 2 stroke oil from a tank into the fuel as it's consumed (so that you can fill the fuel tank with pure gas and the boat manages the injection/mixing).
It's really interesting to note that on the same day that MSDN Magazine said they are ceasing publication, Linux Journal says too..

It's a "formula". Kleos aphthiton I think was the first discovery, back in the 1790s, that's etymologically equivalent to sravas aksitam in the Sanskrit (hence, they are from an Indo-European language family), but you're dead on, it was only in the 1930s or so Milman and Parry documented oral composition of stories in Eastern Europe, with tape recorders of the time iirc

The Cal Watkins book "How To Kill A Dragon" is superb for a discussion of formulae in Indo-European languages
People are creatures of habit. There are people still using Yahoo! for no reason other than it's what they are used to. For many people, buying Intel is the same thing. It takes years to win those people over. (and usually the argument that ultimately wins them over is 'everyone else is using it', rather than the economic one) Those of us who are early adopters jump ship as soon as it's obvious there's a better option, the masses move at a much more glacial pace.
Physical constraints are more restrictive than information constraints. Physical constraints keep physical engineering from fragmenting into thousands of different but similar frameworks because the physical constraints rarely allow more than a few solutions to be competitive as best solutions. In information, the bounds/constraints are something more of a constructed popularity contest who the largest players are (Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, etc.) which carries as much or more weight than rigorously empirical comparisons.

Compare the crude birth rate since 1920 for Thailand and China on this Gapminder chart [1]. You'll see that Thailand started with a birth rate higher than China's. In 1967 they were at around the same level at which point they both simultaneously started trending down. Thailand maintained a smooth curve down to its present level which is lower than China's. China's downward curve was interrupted in 1979 (introduction of the One Child Policy) when it curved upward for a bit.

So, despite all the myth-making, China's One Child Policy was an authoritarian disaster that did not reduce births beyond their already downward trend. In fact, it disrupted the already established trend.

Lots of people will drive for Uber during a recession to make an extra buck perhaps the extra supply allows them to reduce subsidies and turn a profit on a per ride basis (in more cities).
Exactly right. AMD has not only been telling their big customers about it -- they've been letting their customers test it. Google has been testing Rome for months, and have decided to move forward with a full-scale deployment, not only for their own data centers, but for their public cloud. They are using Rome in their production servers today.

Like it or not, Google's stamp of approval carries a tremendous weight in this industry. And if that's not good enough for you, Microsoft and AWS are stepping up their deployments of EPYC as well.

As a result, a lot of smaller companies will now require a much lower standard of due diligence when approving an EPYC Rome deployment.
Software is an interesting animal because what PHP and NodeJS have in common is they were created as hobbies, as were a lot of the frameworks and software tech the world relies on. Maybe there is a bit of us software engineers liking the shiny new thing?

There are a lot of dynamics going on. One is programmer's curiosity but then there is a financial incentive to be on the latest tech. If you see React jobs paying more than Angular jobs, it might be a sign to jump ship which has nothing to do with technical merits. Then there is things like Blockchain that excites investors and techies alike, even when it's a useless solution for something.

People sitting in a room deciding the genuine best thing to do is going to be hard with all these dynamics going on.

Having published over 50 research papers, I've never experienced any value from the journal's so-called typesetting. In fact, that "value" was typically strictly less than zero with all their newly introduced typos and misleading corrections by someone who has no idea about the subject. So why are forced to accept this kind of service and how does world science benefit from it?

...which might still be 0.2x of an average Google salary in Mountain View, as noted above.

The fact that you even mention "home country" pretty much requires that you give us specifics if you want us to take the claim seriously.
How is it hard to see how this is unethical? You are paying for a service, the company is deliberately making it hard/impossible for you to actually use that service.

This would be a very easy class action lawsuit if the company actually had money to pay for it.
How do we know it doesn’t work?

If I was a builder, my incentives are closely aligned with the city - build something that appeals to buyers. If I build a fancy apartment building where everyone owns cars but I provide no parking, well those aren’t going to be very desirable.
I don’t think it’s at all tricky to solve: Don’t believe ratings from people who are not investing their own money.

E.g., VCs in later rounds make sure that VCs from earlier rounds put in pro rata, because investing actions speak louder than words.

Until the misaligned incentives of the rating agencies get fixed, the ratings are really not worth the paper they’re printed on.
I think you need to find a recruiter to work closely with you. The good ones all do - ask around your former coworkers that you trust. Good recruiters will talk to you in-depth, hear what you are looking for, give resume advice, and pitch you to companies.

As a hiring manager, I would definitely be interested in your story and be looking for evidence of self-learning. What you have going against you is high salary expectations despite lack of domain expertise. So be ready to answer questions about how you have worked on various technologies over your career, had to learn them, successes you've had, etc.

Also, that job sounds horrible, you should get out for your mental well-being even if it requires a pay cut.
A bicycle is not infinitely better. In fact, due to emissions from agriculture and livestock and inefficiency of conversion of food to mechanical work, if you have a heavily meat-based or fresh-fruit-Based diet (neither of which are common, I admit), the extra calories spent biking can actually have worse CO2 emissions than an electric car per mile.
Less effort to just ship a mobile phone there I'd imagine.
>Bank needs a rating on a asset, but their incentive is to get a "better" rating, not a more honest one. There are multiple agencies, so banks shop around for the most favorable one. So, as soon as one agency loosens their ratings, they all follow suit. They sell good ratings. That's the industry.

Agreed. Having to set up a raspberry pi or some other microcontroller is time consuming and the end product is ugly. I would like something small that connects to WiFi that operates off battery or could be plugged in permanently.

I recently purchased Wyze's sensor starter kit and have been quite impressed. The contactless sensors are tiny and have decent range to the corresponding bridge. Now Wyze just needs a documented, public API.
> There is exactly one country with a comparable populatuon, India. It's not doing exactly bad, too.

There are however several other large population nations. There's no reason for eg one billion to be a cut-off point or similar. There are only 14 nations with 100m or more people, a sufficiently rare group to look at the nations that fall within it.

The parent's point: "I'm not convinced that landmass and population are fundamental requirements for economic prosperity" - is spot on. They're not requirements at all (just ask Denmark, Belgium, Singapore, Israel, Austria and Ireland) and outsized population is clearly not a booster.

Among nations with at least one million people, the median is around 11.x million population wise. So 100m stands as 9x larger, a very considerable gap in size.

The majority of countries with large populations have done poorly economically. Great economic success with a very large population is a rare exception:

(shown with per capita output rank)

China #67 ($9608), 1.4b people | India #142 ($2036), 1.37b people | Indonesia #115 ($3871), 269m people | Brazil #73 ($8968), 212m people | Pakistan #148 ($1555), 204m people | Nigeria #141 ($2049), 201m people | Bangladesh #144 ($1745), 168m people | Russia #60 ($11327), 144m people | Mexico #66 ($9807), 132m people | Ethiopia #168 ($853), 110m people | Philippines #127 ($3104), 108m people | Egypt #130 ($2573), 101m people | Vietnam #131 ($2551), 97m people

Among the 15 nations with 97m+ people, there are only two standouts:

US #8 ($62606), 330m people | Japan #24 ($39306), 126m people

The poor performance doesn't stop at 100m either, it continues for most other large population nations below 100m as well. Including: Thailand, DR Congo, Turkey, Iran, Tanzania, South Africa, Myanmar, Kenya, Colombia, Uganda, Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Morocco, Peru, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, Malaysia, Angola, Mozambique, Ghana, Nepal, Madagascar, Yemen, North Korea, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon

Between the 100m and 25m population line, you have around 40 nations. At least 26 of those are between very poor and moderately poor.

Here is how the highest per capita output countries rank in total territorial area:

Luxembourg (#167), Switzerland (#132), Norway (#67), Ireland (#118), Iceland (#106), Qatar (#158), Singapore (#175), US (#4), Denmark (#130), Australia (#6), Sweden (#55), Netherlands (#131), Austria (#113), Finland (#64), Germany (#62), Belgium (#136), Canada (#2), France (#42), UK (#78), Israel (#149), New Zealand (#75), UAE (#114), Japan (#61), Italy (#71), South Korea (#107)

Having a lot of territory to look after, is more often an immense burden.
I don't understand why those journals are still a thing.
It seems that almost all universities in the world agree that Elsevier and similar journals are predatory.

Why can they not all agree to all switch journals at once to something managed by committee, similar to what is done in the open source world.

Is the status-quo that difficult to break? In this specific case why are all those biologist not starting a new journal, pushing other people in biology to join them and boycott Elsevier?
> a Tesla may never replace its brakes during its lifetime.

If you live in a northern area where they salt the roads you will need to reduce regen or perhaps occasionally do an emergency stop to grind the corrosion off the brake disks in the winter.

I had to have two brake disks replaced at the last service on my 2015 S 70D because they were too rusty.

But generally speaking you are correct.
Go for either,

A. Best possible salary you can fetch anywhere with low equity (around ~1%)

B. Just enough salary to get by with high equity (around ~4%)

Don't get stuck in the middle, avg salary with 1% equity.

Given your status (recent graduate) and company's status (pre-seed), option A wouldn't be ideal for both the parties but less so to the company. You can use that as a negotiating strategy to get to option B which would be best for both.

Also, keep in mind, the CTO has built the platform for 2 years so she might also have some background in architecture. If true, your negotiating position is less strong.

You are in the best position to know how the business is doing or going to do in the next couple of years. I would adjust the numbers depending on the risk in the business.

Finally, if there are too many unknowns on the business side, then I would only stick to option A. It's a personal decision but my risk appetite as an employee is very low.
Also companies aim to maximize the margins.

If profit is currently $800,000/year and adding 1 software developer at $120,000/year salary (+benefits, hidden costs...) can lead to $800,001 profit, the company would do it.

It is as much a science as any other study of a complex system. Meaning, yes, it is a science.

My understanding is that tires, even when accelerating, can operate in the static coefficient of friction range. And, you want them to operate in the range, because it provides the greatest acceleration. But, maybe my mental model is wrong.

I did 7+ years in the federal system. This is a very accurate account of daily life in the system.

The only topic he didn't mention was Diesel Therapy, and he probably never experienced it because he was careful about following the rules.

This is where an inmate starts to cause all kinds of legal problems for either the prison staff or the federal administration. Say they sued them and have a good case. What will happen is the BOP will put that inmate on a private prison transport and start driving them around the country. You get to spend your nights in a jail holding cell. You will almost never get access to a phone during your therapy. You may never get a shower during your many months of travel.

And you will miss your court filing dates.
I also haven't found anything commercial in this space. Luckily it is a pretty easy and cheap (<$10 in parts) hack project.

I made a thermometer/barometer/hydrometer using an ESP-8266 wifi microcontroller ($5 on ebay) and a single BME280 sensor ($1 on ebay). Plugged into one of my left-over old 500mA phone chargers, it makes a wireless indoor weather station that speaks HTTP.

I bought the sensor on a breakout board, soldered a couple of wires, flashed micropython to the ESP-8266 (NodeMCU), and wrote wrote Python to POST my server with the temperature data, schedule a wakeup, then go to sleep.

But as you say, it took me a weekend of hacking around to build. This seems like exactly the kind of thing that should be available for $10 on eBay yet I can't find anything at all open.
Octopus and squid don't taste much different to me. And I definitely wouldn't be able to tell the difference in takoyaki.

You both are saying the same thing. They needed people who paid the monthly fee but never went, but instead got people who went a lot. And gyms definitely do pay a per-visit overhead since space is a fixed and precious resource, especially in urban areas.
I remember it took almost two months for me to receive my card. Since they were completely unresponsive via email support, chat, or the phone, I was starting to worry that it had gotten lost in the mail or something, or worse that they had never shipped it.

it was getting to a point where I looked at their website, noticed that they were based in NYC (like me), and thought about applying to a job there purely as a means to talk to someone, and complain about my card never arriving.

Sadly, I chickened on that plan, but I really wish I had gone through with it; I would have loved to see how awesome their office was if they were totally OK hemorrhaging money with no real strategy on making it back.
