If you're a software developer who doesn't know C, then there's a whole class of software that you can't read - network programming, operating systems, language tools all written in C. This puts you at an extreme disadvantage imho.
I'm confused, are you arguing that video calls are not a primary communication tool? If avatar based comms became as common as video calls I'd consider that a primary tool.

Besides, the idea is not that this would meaningfully displace existing media (except perhaps video for some use-cases), but provide a fundamentally new medium for communication that has no present day analog other than face-to-face. Much like current tools, you'd use it when it is the ideal context and situation for it to be maximally useful.

Video calls and other media have distinct tradeoffs, and are objectively worse than face-to-face along a variety of dimensions.

The argument is simple, if you believe:

- people value face-to-face over existing digital communication tools for certain contexts

- VR and AR based communication meaningfully approaches face-to-face in certain ways that existing tools do not

- VR and AR technology will eventually get to a point where it is ubiquitous

Then it seems that tech will be used for those purposes. Either of the latter two assumptions could be wrong, but early research [1] supports the argument of first, and based upon the tech track the second seems highly likely.

You've missed my point completely. I want the _whole damn screen_ disabled so I don't inadvertently press pause/skip forward when watching videos for example. It's exactly the opposite of the behavior you get from "guided access" thing.

>The parent comment asks the right question, what is being meant by "the same" is required to know before being able to say the discussion makes no sense.

This is true, but I think the comment you are replying to is correctly identifying a fundamental conceptual misunderstanding of the comments preceding it. In the sense that they likely mean, it's not really a valid question. Sort of like the "are you still beating your wife?" question. Asking it is making incorrect assumptions.
> It’s really frustrating and inefficient. I only do it because she’s a really good friend.

Yeesh. I'm glad my friends don't regard me this way. IMHO, your comment is a perfect example of why one should quit Facebook.
> Who said conspiracies involving hundreds of people are impossible?

Companies are pretty opaque by design and I'm sure these people signed NDAs.

As long as they believed the company was acting legally (even if not ethically) they might not have felt like they had the legal right to share insider information.

Others might have simply felt the company was working on it. And others might not have wanted to damage the company that employs them.

The people that knew something wrong was going on and kept passing the buck are certainly at fault though and in retrospect I bet a lot of people wish they said something.

It's a tragedy what's happened and unfortunately a bunch of people probably could have saved some lives but didn't.
It was fun to think about glow in the dark pigments that way.

Btrfs crashed for me on two occations, last time, around 2 years back I have installed zfs (which I am using for ~10 years on FreeBSD server) which works like a charm since then.

I understand Linus reasoning but there is just no way I will install btrfs, like ever. I rather dont update kernel (I am having zfs on fedora root with degular kernel updates and scripts which verify that everything is with kernel modules prior to reboot) than use file system that crashed twice in two years.

Yes it is very annoying if update crashes fs, but currently:

- in 2 years two time btrfs crashed itself

- in next 2 years update never broke zfs

As far as I am concerned, the case for zfs is clear.

This might be helpful to someone: https://www.csparks.com/BootFedoraZFS/index.md

Anyway Linus is going too far with his GPL agenda, the MODUL_LICENSE writting kernel moduls explains why the hardware is less supported on linux - instead of devs. focusing on more support from 3rd party companies, they try to force them to do GPL. Once you set MODUL_LICENSE to non GPL, you quickly figure out that you can't use most of kernel calls. Not the code. Calls.

I don't have any love for Microsoft, but they at least have a handful of objectively useful products that probably make the world a little better.

Pretty much all the research I've heard about social media indicates that it makes the world worse. So I think it is relevant.

The value of avatar based communication, vs video in particular, is about:

- social presence: the feeling of being together and of unmediated communication

- shared spatial awareness: the ability to have a shared reference frame of physical reality

these are the two key features of face to face communication that digital communication tools have largely failed to replicate. (as studied by academic research)

I also conjecture there's a third:

- ability to dynamically spawn and manipulate contextual mixed media in a shared spatial environment (videos, images, 3d models, data, etc)

These three characteristics combined are met already today to some degree by modern day video games, but VR/AR seems likely to be the key tool to knock down much of the barrier regarding social presence due to its ability to transmit many more forms of non-verbal communication between people than existing tools.
Color may not actually be a basic physical property.

Purple is an artifact of our minds, for example. Does not exist as a distinct wavelength of light.

The object absorbs, does not absorb, emits, whatever wavelengths of light. To us, those have colors, where they are in the visible spectrum.

Take us out of the equation, and?

btrfs is such a mess that for a database or VM to be marginally stable, you have to disable the CoW featureset for those files with the +C attribute. It's nowhere near a serious solution.

I think it's important to differentiate Conversational and Stream of Consciousness tones. Most people speak as they think of ideas which falls under Stream of Consciousness. If you write that way, you will end up with an unorganized mess full of filler words and phrases. The professors who say don't write conversationally are actually warning you not to fill your writing with the nonsense that permeates normal speech.

Paul Graham mentions taking physically awkward bits and making them sound conversational. That is the trick. Don't start with stream of consciousness and call it conversational. Start with normal writing and make it flow like a conversation.

Writing conversationally is a bit like writing dialogue. The trick it to taken written word and make it sound natural. Unfortunately it's a very unnatural act to do this well, and you will notice they do differ in subtle ways. For example, no one says goodbye or asks for change in dialogue.
Having used Honeywell's implementation in terms of DNS/DSA, I find the networking software that came later as being of a more primitive style. I was involved in writing networking programs in a variety of languages and the OSI Model made that significantly easier.

But there is no point crying over spilt milk. It has long passed away and the technology of today is a completely different beast.
> why are AR glasses going to be the tech to bring society down?

The people that are against it are more of the position that it isn't the technology, but those that control it. As techies it is easy to see all the benefits and not think of the downsides. We are a niche group after all, but that is easy to forget (especially if you live in SV). As techies we use ad blockers and have tracking blockers. But as we've seen with this wave of tech, our data is valuable and highly sought after. There are campaign after campaign to make us believe that it isn't worth much while the largest companies in the world thrive on it and the most dystopian societies embrace it and quote Goebbels.

Every technology has benefits and drawbacks. The issue is can we mitigate the drawbacks while being able to take advantage of the technology? With forethought this is certainty and historically true (though historically it has been because we reigned technology in). But when we have companies offering to do social credit (not just China btw) and literally comparing themselves to Black Mirror and saying they'll do that, but in a good way? I for one am ready to pump the breaks a bit and be more cautious as we take this turn. It isn't Luddite mentality, but more that we should resolve issues with security and the control of technology as we move forward. The current top comment is mentioning decentralized systems, homomorphic encryption, mesh network, etc. It isn't anti-tech, but maybe we should focus on privacy first before we give away something that people have had all throughout history and the lack of has been showing to cause social problems.
In USSR/Russia 36.6C has always been considered ideally normal (and until this very moment i thought that it was normal for the whole human race :). The same way - crossing 37C means you're sick.

It probably may also depend on where the temperature is taken. In USSR/Russia it is in the armpit, which is probably of lower temperature than anus/mouth which is where the temperature is taken in many other countries.

Both definitely suffered from Pagliacci syndrome. My personal take on this is that you have to get roughly down to the zeroth floor of life when humor is all that will keep you going in order to be that funny because afterwards everything will be funny.

There is - or rather was - a Dutch humorist named Max Tailleur, whose byline was 'I laugh so I don't cry'. Food for thought.

I think this argument fails because “firm-space” is sparse. There are many companies, but there are way more possible companies given all the degrees of freedom. Also, the number of “competition events” is small. Companies don’t have the opportunity to run gradient descent to optimize themselves. A bunch of companies can make the same bad decision for the same bad reason, and they will each succeed or fail because of a bunch of unrelated factors.
And then there is https://svelte.dev/ which does not even have vdom. And Rich Harris (the author) has pretty strong opinions about it. Check out his talks on YouTube, worth it.

What sort of censorship is going on in the comments?

If you look at the Twitter responses to any famous person's comment, you can see how polarising it tends to be.

Very interesting. From a quick read, I feel like the domain/converter pattern has elements in common with flow based programming, is this close?

Exactly. Telling interviewees that what interviewers want to hear is "honest answers" sounds like the advice of somebody so deep in manager land they've become out of touch with the fundamentals of human interaction. The beginning of a business relationship is no different from the beginning of any relationship: You can be perfectly honest without being so frank about your flaws that you create a bad impression. The question is pointless bullshit that does nothing but arbitrarily pare down your candidate list for lack of anything more germane to distinguish them by. And it sounds poignant, so it's easy to convince yourself of its genius.

“Three white men sitting around saying the n-word?” My millennial girlfriend made it about five minutes into Blazing Saddles before she refused to watch. It didn’t matter that all three men were buffoons and villains and were being portrayed as such. It reminded me of my parents’ generation not getting that Beavis and Butthead were not role models. But no, I don’t think you can make movies like that today.

To be honest I basically feel the same for all of these behavioural questions. Bar the ones that ask specifically what you have contributed in previous roles.

Stuff like "Why are you leaving your previous company" has no good answers. The linked article says as much by saying "stay positive and avoid the negative" if there are no negatives or direct benefits you seek to achieve by moving then you wouldn't be interviewing, so they are basically advising you lie as it's the only "correct" answer.

When I have done hiring in the past I have generally just thrown out all of this nonsense and avoided sourcers/recruiters because everyone currently in hiring uses filters I don't agree with (education, resume etc) and don't sufficiently understand filters I DO care about (open source contributions, specific projects/teams within previous companies).

Then when it comes time to actually interview I am only interested in how well they can do 2 things. a) build stuff b) work with my team. b) is still fuzzy but atleast I have a more solid idea of what that might entail and can get a good feel by talking to the person and a) is pretty objective. Don't need any coding tests just need to talk to them about what they have built, how it works in sufficient detail and their opinions and thoughts on some sufficiently deep technical topics.

This mightn't scale as well but it sure beats all the nonsense and waste of money sources/recruiters/HR incur in the hiring pipeline.

After I find someone I want then and only then do I take their resume/etc to HR. Never let them act as a filter as they drop great people all the time and give me a stream of "good on paper but completely useless" people that have zero culture fit.

I couldn't care less IF or WHERE you went to university. If you learnt to build stuff at university, great, basement of your parents place, great, on a bench in the park while you were homeless trying to get this job, also great. Don't care how you learnt it only that you can.

Just like I don't give a rats ass if your resume doesn't have a single buzzword or anything in it. If it looks like you have worked on relevant stuff or at relevant places that is good enough.

This approach is all that has worked for me for getting genuinely good people, it takes time and effort but your team is worth it.

Normal body temperature is 36.6°C (97.9°F) even in France, but can be up to 37°C sometimes or in some places. Temperature of 37.7°C is symptom of sickness.

https://www.bmj.com/content/359/bmj.j5468

Results:

In a diverse cohort of 35 488 patients (mean age 52.9 years, 64% women, 41% non-white race) with 243 506 temperature measurements, mean temperature was 36.6°C (95% range 35.7-37.3°C, 99% range 35.3-37.7°C). Several demographic factors were linked to individual level temperature, with older people the coolest (–0.021°C for every decade, P<0.001) and African-American women the hottest (versus white men: 0.052°C, P<0.001). Several comorbidities were linked to lower temperature (eg, hypothyroidism: –0.013°C, P=0.01) or higher temperature (eg, cancer: 0.020, P<0.001), as were physiological measurements (eg, body mass index: 0.002 per m/kg2, P<0.001). Overall, measured factors collectively explained only 8.2% of individual temperature variation. Despite this, unexplained temperature variation was a significant predictor of subsequent mortality: controlling for all measured factors, an increase of 0.149°C (1 SD of individual temperature in the data) was linked to 8.4% higher one year mortality (P=0.014).

This makes me really sad. Right after I went off to college, my parents moved to a new, secluded neighborhood in its infancy -- only a handful of homes there. Our house was the one right next to a tall meadow, protected by a deep forest and a pond. During those summers, you could gaze into the meadow and witness thousands of fireflies putting on a show --- every day, the 4th of July. Occasionally, you could witness huge rafters of turkeys (many dozens) slowly making their way through the fields, their true numbers hidden by low hanging fog.

Then in my last couple years of college, the neighborhood matured further into development. The developers slowly turned the woods into meadows, the meadows into dirt fields, the dirt fields into streets, foundations, and lawns. That was the end of the fireflies; the end of the turkeys; the end of the natural beauty that once lurked there.
I consulted the relevant and qualified[0] unicorn[1] expert who presented evidence[2] to confirm this is all legitimate[3] so it is deemed[4] to be true[5]: Rhinos or mammoths can't be unicorns. There was mention about not being able to ride[6] them but that is not a convincing argument. Domestication of a more horse-like animal was the larger deciding factor.

That said I fully get how a mammoth / rhino could inspire and may actually be the real root of the folk story. While Subject Matter Experts[0] can be wrong the folk story now has its own definition[1] and physical evidence[2].

Sidenote: Now I know why Pratchett likes footnotes.

[6] rhinos can be ridden if you're suitably enthusiastic and are also able to run faster. Mammoths with horns were probably similar. This is logically not much different to how wild unicorns[1] would be so I'd not discount too much. The riding aspect is therefore a weak disqualifier.

One thing I can't understand is why Facebook is still around. But, at the same time, Twitter is still around, too. I guess people got tired switching platforms.
Don't underestimate managers who "encourage" unnecessary complexity to boost their own profile. Their direct reports have to "design" and then implement and maintain them. Then the manager gets a higher profile for managing teams that build and design "critical", complex systems.

There is a lot of blame to go around in this industry--it isn't just individual engineers acting out of ignorance or resume building.
