> When you can't include a bunch of bad legacy code and a bunch of off-site resources, the page speeds up dramatically regardless of if it's amp or not.

This is true, but my point was that just doing that will still leave it slower than AMP, so the search engines will still prefer AMP results.

AMP pages can be safely prerendered, which is what makes all other options slower. If you defined your own HTML subset that allowed safe prerendering, you will have simply reinvented AMP, and you might as well contribute to the AMP project instead to get all the existing search engines to use it.

Seasoned backend/ML developer, currently in Google Zürich (worked on some data pipelines and now web ranking) looking for an H1B sponsor and relocation to the US. This is surprisingly way more difficult today than cracking FAANG interviews (being twice ACM ICPC finalist certainly helped me with the latter)!
Prison for almost killing their interviewer for asking about an employment gap.
I think this sort of statement is thrown around too lightly. It's a bad sign, but there's a limited amount of signal in it. It may not correlate strongly with employee experience, and lots of other positive factors might outweigh it.

Maybe it's just one recruiter's resume filter. Maybe the company actually has a great medical leave policy, or pays really well, or works on something the OP is super excited by. Or maybe the company is just really, irrationally weird about applicants having gaps on their resume, but is otherwise perfectly normal, and it doesn't matter ever again after OP signs an offer.

Sure, given two offers from otherwise identical companies OP should count this as a mark against, and sign an offer from someone who doesn't care. Given offers that aren't otherwise identical, though, what's it worth? $5k in salary? More? Less?

You are implying that the inability of self-driving cars to drive in adverse conditions is somehow a positive when actually it is a serious limitation.

It's not a great reason, but it is an interesting failure [1] case of the open source model, when someone else's open source project becomes your own liability because so many of your own customers use it.

Here's a good example, the driver at 3:42 in this video: https://youtu.be/GQLUOeo9cps?t=222

The cammer didn't even begin slowing down until their car's forward collision warning went off, and then tries to claim that the one in front of them "stopped like a bitch".

This driver learned nothing from the incident, and will continue to drive poorly.
I don't understand why "otherwise smart people" feel the need to diminish the potential and successes of ML. When chess was basically solved, it was dismissed brute force, with a sarcastic challenge to do Go, and we now the fate of that challenge.

There used to be, on slashdot and I believe in the early days of HN, this running complaint of the new-at-the-time CSI-style shows, specifically the "enhance" trope: "you can't reconstruct a license plate from a bad frame in a video. That information is just lost. It's not there anymore", they would say, usually with all the aura of letting you in on a secret only a very smart mind could gleam, although there were five others in the same thread making this point.

Today we have superresolution algorithms that can reconstruct license plates from low-res images. Turns out the information wasn't really lost, at least not in the sense applicable to the situation (i. e. you are allowed to train on other data).

Many tech people dismiss such progress as "just statistics", but I haven't seen much of an attempt to find a definition of intelligence that is meaningful different from "just statistics". In fact I doubt it's possible within the realm of science, i. e. without resorting to mind-body dualism.

As to driverless cars: they exist, right now. Google does thousands of miles without any need of human intervention. Yes, maybe it doesn't yet work well enough in a hailstorm. But predicting that these problems will endure for 50 years plus, against a combination of restricting these cars to certain situations, improving the models, and/or improving maps, seems at least as overconfident in your ability to make predictions as those made by self-driving optimists.
If it’s a debug visualisation, why would it not be displaying everything? Of course, it’s in a public release so it’s probably, er, ‘tidied up’ a bit.
I think most people have very different criteria for what would make them live in a place for half their lives, especially people who can afford to live anywhere. Nature and weather are not unimportant, but far from the topmost criteria for a lot of people. Having family, friends, community, and other relations is often much more important. As is having the ability to do what one loves. In many cases, all those things are missing. I bet after a month or two in sd or wy, most people are ready to leave and never come back. Plus they compete with other non income tax states like Washington, Florida, and Texas that have a lot more to offer.

Anti-trust hasn't changed much legislatively in the past few decades. While the laws haven’t changed much on paper, what’s changed is simply the level of enforcement. We still have the same laws that barred IBM from dominating personal computers (creating the opening for Microsoft) but we simply don’t pursue as much enforcement.

One problem with diminishing enforcement is that whenever you DO pursue enforcement action, it will inevitably look extremely political.
Yes, now that Sundar is CEO of Alphabet they pretty much have to.

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/why-google-finally-disclos...

"Revenue-recognition rules that were approved in 2014 and went into effect at the end of 2017 call on companies to report financial results to their investors in the same manner that they are reported to the main decision-maker at the company, typically the chief executive. Basically, if a CEO sees numbers for a large segment of the company, the company should be reporting that segment’s results to investors.

As the revenue-recognition rules were being put in place by companies in 2017 ahead of the deadline, the Securities and Exchange Commission entered into communication with Alphabet specifically to discern why it was not providing revenue numbers for its segments, mentioning YouTube, Google Cloud and some other businesses, such as hardware. Google responded by saying that its chief decision-maker, Alphabet CEO Larry Page, did not see results parsed to that level, though Google CEO Sundar Pichai did."

FLIP (https://www.flip.com.au/) | Senior Software Development Engineer | Melbourne, AU | ONSITE | Full time

FLIP is looking for talented software engineers to help build out our next generation logistics platform.

FLIP is a customer-centric logistics technology company in the heart of Melbourne's CBD. Our platform connects senders with carriers and takes the guesswork and frustration out of logistics management. We are customer focused and value curiosity, integrity and empathy, both towards our customers and each other.

You'll be joining a world-class team of senior engineers, designers and product experts as we tackle the incredibly difficult challenges in the logistics space. We are continuously learning, and each day brings a new set of challenges, both technical and real world.

As a Software Development Engineer at FLIP, you will be doing a lot more than just writing code. You will work hand in hand with our Product and Design team to set achievable release milestones, and meet with senders, carriers and all of the parties in-between to distill business knowledge into system designs. You will build and operate cloud infrastructure for our microservices, and write the code that lives there. You will work with Front End Engineers to design REST and GraphQL APIs for our Vue-based user interfaces. We have a flat structure, so you and the team will be responsible for planning and iterating on the backlog of work that takes us from system designs to working products.

Our tech stack: event-sourced microservices, mostly golang, AWS lambda where it makes sense, Fargate containers and EC2 where it doesn't, all defined by infrastructure-as-code.

Our website is currently being torn apart and re-written, so the best way to find out more about us is just to get in touch. If you're interested in the role or just have some questions, please reach out to discover@flip.com.au. Applicants should include a recent CV, and mention "HN Who is hiring". No recruiters, please.
Predatory? I don’t see the problem with demanding these businesses, or their landlords, comply with the law to make them accessible.

The same ones that they either hired or executed a coup on.

The majority shareholder has a good chance of remaining as CEO if he is proactive enough and stacks the board in his favor over time. It’s a chess game.

edit: To your post-edited comment, yes, it's a strategy game. There are lots of ways to avoid getting ousted as a CEO.

This blatant bias against the "coastal elite" (let's be real, there's definitely a political bias to this entire thing) scares me.

Then again, I'm working at Google this summer, so maybe I'm biased ...
Focusing just on the companies with the most employees would mean the U.S. would become a retail nation, since that's the industry with the most head count. It isn't the best metric to measure by, since companies can also redistribute their revenue locally through capex, investments, services, and other costs.

Dropbox supports two types of 3rd party apps each with different file permissions. 1) Sandbox, and 2) Full Access. If you jail by registering a "Sandbox App", you give up the ability to share/collaborate in a directory with other Dropbox users. To have a third party project that provides sharing you must abandon the "Sandbox" permissions and instead request "Full Access" - which means you get a token that give you access to the users entire dropbox directory. I have several email threads with the Dropbox team discussion this issue at length. Perhaps this has changed since I was neck deep in this issue but I don't see anything in their changelog to suggest that.

Note that Lamport admitted that his result was never accepted by the scientific community.

(The paper implicitly assumes non-discrete continuity)
Differential-equation based hysical models are continuous. Computational systems are discrete, as long as the clock is slower than the

He waves away the empirical disproof of his claim by arguing that reality is merely a finite approximation where low probabilities runs down to zero.

He even mentions this stuff in the paper, making the paper quite weird.

My only guess is that he fell into the trap of forgetting that infinitesimal objects ate idealized mathematical models not physical realities.
Most crawlers/bots, particularly the ones you want to be able to identify, spoof their user agent, making this mostly moot.

Prevent you from playing the game.
The problem, according to the article isn't that, it's some law firms are doing this in a predatory way.

"But in California unscrupulous lawyers bypass the law’s good intentions by taking advantage of the state’s generous payouts to disabled individuals who sue, often targeting hundreds of small businesses at once, according to Sacramento-based small business defense attorney Rick Morin. For many ADA cases, the minimum in statutory damages starts at $4,000."
Our brains are purpose-built to really see only the very core center of our vision; the brain then creates an approximate model of the surrounding space, but a lot of what is in that model is influenced by what the brain "expects" to see. So I think yes, we can also suffer from some similar inaccuracies when the objects in question are in our periphery.

However the main difference is that, when we are consciously looking directly at something, we can almost always tell with 100% certainty what we're looking at, up to a considerable distance. I can see a car pulled over to the side of the highway a solid half mile ahead sometimes, and have plenty of time to respond. Computer vision doesn't have this additional strength.

As always though, the strength that computer vision has over us is it never gets tired or distracted, and it never operates in "default mode" where sensory inputs don't get full (or even much at all) conscious attention.

Yes, predatory. From the article:

> The disabled man’s attorney, Tanya E. Moore, for years has been the subject of much scrutiny for suing thousands of small businesses across the South Bay, filing more than 1,400 ADA cases in recent years. The suits have forced mom and pop shops like Cafe Crema to close, as many owners can’t afford to bring their businesses up to code or settle. A little less than three years ago, a beloved San Jose staple, Time Deli, had to shut its doors for the same reason.

> About two years ago, Moore was faced with a federal racketeering civil lawsuit for filing lawsuits based on “false allegations” of disability and injury, first reported by the Fresno Bee.

I wonder how many businesses will be left when Moore is done.

It looks like they'd have to redo a significant portion of the front of the building to make it work, from the street up to the patio, then up again to the door. (Which, itself, may need replacing.)
