This has nothing to do with "preparing" people.
In a way this already happened, with GPU programming, which has a more realistic model of what modern hardware is (explicit memory hierarchy for example).

Because the speed advantage is so huge, people went through the pain of learning this new model and redesigning algorithms to better fit it.

Fully agreed. UBI simply has not yet been tried on a scale and over a span of time that it would qualify as a real trial.
I appreciate the usefulness of using weeks to measure time. But on a side note: less than 10% of time assigned for validation/testing and at the very end of a project is, in my experience, extremely ambitious.
I'm a hiring manager and here's my opinion:

* If it's less than a year, you don't need to explain it or justify it. Just leave it blank on the CV and in the interview, say something like, "...and then I took some time off to take care of a family member."

* If it's more than a year, you still don't need to explain it or justify it, but you should acknowledge it and explain what you've done to make sure you stay sharp. "...and then I took some time off to take care of a family member, but I don't want to get rusty so I've been [whatever]." Don't BS on that last part, good interviewers will delve in to it just like they would for a job. If you say you've been taking Pluralsight courses on ML, I'm going to ask what you learned.

* Seriously don't explain it or justify it. Even if it's totally reasonable, just give me one vague sentence and get back to the stuff that's relevant to the job interview.

Good luck!

I think the digits should be arranged 0 to 9, not 1 to 9 followed by 0. Because 0 is less than 1.

Also, when the correct answer is revealed, it would be great to somehow highlight the cats that are actually described by the formula. Yes, this is hard for 0.

Also, the animations feel too fast to me. I find they make the whole thing stressful, somehow.

ALSO, when a wrong answer is given, the question disappears! That's terrible UX.

EDIT: I should add that I think the idea is great! But some details of the implementation could be improved.

The US is huge, numbers in one area can be very high or very low and skew things significantly. It doesn't help most American's if salaries are pulled up (in the average) by a high cost of living area, and housing is pulled down (in the average) by a different area 300 miles away.

You see this alot in school data. The top 90% of schools would, if averaged, put the US in top standing. However, those bottom 10% pull us down (alot). The big fight in America right now is whether we cut those bottom 10% and say EOBAD's (GOP), or work to help them catch up (Democrats).

I'd second F# and also in the same vein recommend Ocaml, in particular, if fast-running native code is a requirement. I haven't benchmarked it enough but I suspect that in most cases Ocaml might be a good deal faster.

I'm also very sympathetic to the non-functional aspects. I think being able to write imperative code easily (and it's surprisingly pleasant in ocaml/f#) is a huge plus.
PubMed is an incredibly useful resource. I've found that it is fairly common for my psychiatrist and GP to be relatively unaware of the latest studies and treatments.

> I like using C, but I get frustrated every time I hit a wall trying to build features from other languages.

Well there's your problem. Instead of thinking about your problem and devising a C solution, you resort to pounding the square peg into the round hole. Your problem isn't C, it's your proficiency at it. What's worse, instead of correcting said ignorance your solution is to produce more code using a new language. This only adds to the gross pile of trash that is every language/framework that tries to solve programmer ignorance and laziness with what amounts to wishful thinking. This is why software really sucks nowadays. Everyone wants results without reading the manual or putting in real effort. They want languages with built in hand holding and magic inference. That's not how any of this works.

I get it, programming and C sucks because it's so damn tedious. I suck at C too. But I actively study books and similar problems people already solved using the language. Programming is very hard. The best programmers I know are also very good with math and puzzles (e.g. Ken Thompson was a chess geek). They're puzzle solvers. They don't cheat and try to smash or duck tape the pieces together. They thrive on studying strategy meaning reading books, papers, and other people's code. Learn how to solve the puzzles strategically instead of fighting them.
Another disadvantage of AirPods (and most other wireless headphones): they're terrible for the environment. Builtin batteries which will wear out, glued shut so no way to replace the batteries, tied to a stack of radio/protocol/codecs which will be obsolete sooner or later.

They are throw-away products. Just look at all the original 1st gen AirPods which now see their batteries failing - each one by itself is small, but given the sales numbers it's huge mountains of electronics trash.

For the price of AirPods you can get a good pair of wired headphones which can last 20+ years. Replace tips or ear cushions as needed, on good headphones they are easily replaceable. No batteries or protocols or codecs to ever worry about.

More recently, the concept been distilled by the current Microsoft CEO, without indulging in apophasis.

He goes on to contrast the role of companies such as Microsoft with that of aggregators, which dominate a market by amassing far more content than rivals — like Google and Facebook Inc. in online media, or Amazon in e-commerce. Referring to how companies like these work, he says: “You commoditize supply. You’re even sort of commoditizing the demand, in some ways. That’s a very different dynamic.”

That is getting quite close to the way my software does chord detection one tone at the time, so yes, that works. What I do is subtract the match from the signal and then re-run the analyzer. This works well enough for signals that are orthogonal, less well for signals that have a lot in common (such as octaves or other close multiples of the original). Correlation is super expensive numerically if you don't know the input phase by the way, you'd have to hunt for the best match, if you can take it out of the time domain then it will get a lot better.

I worked for 5 years doing epidemic modeling for HCV, from right around when the first generation of the modern treatments became available (Sofosbuvir, etc). When I started working it was immediately clear that Sofosbuvir et al were a total game changer, and for a while my research was based on figuring out who to treat first: people very sick but that were not spreading the disease, or people with few symptoms that were actively spreading the disease

Here are a few interesting things (in my opinion) that are not so well known about HCV:

- Prior to 2015 you could cure HCV, the standard of care was ribavirin with pegylated interferon. If you were lucky and had the right HCV genotype you would take a whole bunch of pills and injections for 48 weeks, with a 50% chance of cure. The side effects were pretty bad though, people I met that took it compared it to chemo.

- Currently there are treatments available that will cure any HCV genotype, on people with advanced liver disease (cirrhotic), coinfected with HIV, with >95% success rate. One pill per day with basically no side effects.

- In western countries there are a whole bunch of HCV positive baby boomers, in many cases unaware that they are infected. Epidemically they are not transmitting the disease, but they have been chronic for many years and are having liver issues

- Again in western countries, the epidemic is being driven mostly by active intravenous drug users, typically young, and often with other co-morbidities (mental health issues, HIV, etc). Re-infection is possible, so HCV eradication will be tough

- There is controversy as to whether you can transmit HCV sexually, at the least it is much harder than transmitting HIV. Conversely active intravenous drug users that share needles will almost certainly have HCV, with HIV being harder to transmit this way

- In other countries the situation can be very different. Egypt in particular has around 20% HCV prevalence, the story goes that the UN funded a program to eliminate schistosomiasis in the 1980s via vaccination, but the campaign did a lot of shared needles

"Dangerous" is a tradeoff between potential liability for the employer and saving money. Greedily pursuing short-term gains can often make workplaces more dangerous than they need to be.

"Humiliating" can be inherent to the structure of a job (it can feel humiliating to be obligated to do unpleasant tasks, or even simply to be stripped of personal agency), or it can be a source of pleasure for the employer. Some people enjoy dominating and belittling others, and subordinates without alternative jobs available are a ripe target.
“This meteorite had an abundance of carbon in it. And as it slowly cooled down, the iron and carbon came together and formed this mineral,” says Dr Stuart Mills, Museums Victoria's senior curator of geosciences.

Scientists have come across edscottite before, inside smelters. It is one of the phases iron goes through when it is smelted into steel.

But they have never seen it naturally occurring. And minerals only get a name when you can find them in nature.

Technology isn't really relevant unless we figure out a use for it.
It seems this is literally written in the horrible Arduino "everything in one huge file" style:

https://github.com/trustcrypto/OnlyKey-Firmware/blob/master/...

The funny thing is they have a "Source code reviewed by Codacy" badge on the readme claiming the code is grade A... but if you actually click through, of course Codacy didn't pick up the .ino file at all, so in fact nothing of substance is being reviewed. That .ino file wouldn't pass any style review... it's a mess.

Anyway, looks like that firmware is incomplete (e.g. "onlykey.h" is missing). Just a quick scroll through the code gives me zero confidence in this thing, code quality wise. Someone who can't consistently indent code almost certainly isn't qualified to be writing security-critical software.

Edit: looks like the rest of the code is here, and yeah, it doesn't inspire much confidence (7000+ lines of code in okcore.cpp, ouch): https://github.com/trustcrypto/libraries/tree/master/onlykey
What else can you expect in a mass-manufacturing-based economy; where even the act producing or manufacturing locally is worthy of pride?

Margins need to be as razor-thin as possible in order to complete, and payroll is often one of the largest expenses.

As a result there will be a significant group of jobs by which little experience is required and turnover may be high - but since the jobs don’t require a lot of skill, the high turnover rate is not an issue.

For this job group, there is no reason to improve the working conditions, as, from the outset - these workers are never expected to stay for long.

An individual like a Junior Software Developer working on a large codebase that‘s existed for time, gets more valuable to the employer over the years, as their knowledge of that company’s particular codebase grows, and how the workflow of their company functions.

A Junior developer, then, has a career path - as they demonstrate their knowledge in the codebase they move from Junior to Intermediate to Senior and thusly by the time they may reach management they have demonstrated an aptitude in it.

I believe karma still works this way.
It's a way to tip the turnover scales in favor of the employer. Dangerous jobs weed out the people who care enough to complain about conditions that are less dangerous but still degrading. If you're willing to put up with situations where people lose limbs or die, you're probably not worried about lunch break violations. You also have the option of giving a "problem" employee the worst tasks until they decide to leave.

"Humiliating" is also good for employers, when they can get away with it. If you make your employees put up with undignified conditions - long hours, short breaks, arbitrary rules, embarrassing or onerous security policies - you appropriate their focus or attention either directly or through the stress of having to put up with those circumstances. That's less time and cognitive power to organize, budget properly, find another job, or really plan for the future in any way.

Your job as an employer is to squeeze as much work out of your employees as possible. That means doing everything legal to keep them from leaving (have to make back that training investment), or to have the option to quickly dismiss them if they're sub-optimal or causing problems.

I'm working from the perspective of having worked in retail and supply chain, but HN's main demographic should listen up: crunch is a solved problem. Think about what your employers have to gain from not implementing those known solutions.

> That's not how any of this works.

That's actually how _all_ of this works. If we required everyone to handle the complexity of everything, we wouldn't be able to make technological progress. Yes, there's the tension (there's always a tension) between having a deep understanding of an underlying technology, and therefore be able to use it better, and trying to get to a point where you can get away with not understanding. But it's undeniably considered a success story in technology if the technology gets to a point where people can use it to basically its full potential, without needing to understand it.
