I think there is a fear of also being perceived as being incompetent by your peers when you make an error - so it's not entirely an internal dilemma. On other hand, if you can display enough successes you can get away with a few gaffes.
StyleGAN (v2, which is this, and v1 before it) is spectacularly high quality.

Even more interestingly, you can interpolate between faces very smoothly. (For instance, I was able to give some face off the street a drag makeover, by interpolating that face plus or minus the face of a drag queen minus that performer's face out of drag: https://leebutterman.com/assets/lsb5-plus-trixie-minus-brian... )

But it can be tricky to encode faces if they look out of the ordinary, where "ordinary" is the 70k faces on Flickr that trained StyleGAN.

On HN in general there is a disdain for anything other than react, probably more people of Facebook generation and admiration of it's technology like open graph, react and few other products.

Based on personal usage of React, it's no easier than angular or any JS based framework like Vue (which in my view more sensible than react). You add state management, templates, router and 1000's of npm packages to do anything simple and react soon becomes an unmaintainable nightmare with emany vulnerabilities if you do not upgrade. An app is not just simple react but many of the npm packages (although it's true in general for JavaScript eco-system which is by default is insecure and maintenance nightmare unless there is an extra amount of work done to secure it).

Angular at least provide a decent complete single framework to work with and a unified documentation, there are issues with it, but react is same when you need any reasonable size app from it.

React gives you an easy start with false sense that it's easy, than becomes just too convoluted and complicated with the addition of different components as soon as app starts growing. Maintaining and upgrading apps based on react is very difficult as one version to another it introduces breaking changes. Angular had similar thing from angularjs to angular 2, but slowly they made it much better but letting compiler do more work.

Ivy tree shaking compiler will give a fight to upcoming compiler framework like svelte and keep the size smaller and may be in some cases much smaller than react app bundles, will wait for the benchmarks and size comparisons.

I am still waiting for a simpler way of developing web apps, elm looked very nice, but it is still far from ready for use in the same way as Angular or react yet.

What I'm saying is that even with the lawsuit rate that low, there is no real incentive for the company (really the people sending the emails) to behave otherwise than they already do. Actually their benefit is that low, that even a slight error of that 0.1% guess would make the whole do-good business a really bad proposition.

Your (guess) data is probably right but it discounts too much the downsides. When you present your hypothesis to them (e.g. me) they will tell you (rightly so) to try it yourself first.

Have you considered working for a remote-only company, such as GitLab, DuckDuckGo or Buffer? For someone with a chronic depersonalization / derealization disorder a formal work environment should be a non-starter.

Then why didn't that happen naturally? People calling google a monopoly don't see that the future if innovation is megacorps and small businesses that try to ascend to selling out. This world where a business sticks to one problem domain is just a fantasy, it's the software version of a mom+pop. In the world of grownup companies it's Amazon vs. Apple vs. Google vs Walmart vs. Tencent vs. Facebook and maybe eventually the Europeans will decide they miss having clout as more than consumers on the world stage and then there'll be a European megacorp too.
What won’t google shut down?

Maybe instead of dragging out a seemingly endless series of customer trust sapping product shutdowns it should just decide what it’s keeping them split the company into what it’s keeping and what it’s killing.

Here’s my prediction of what will finally be left standing:

Search

Search advertising

Maps

Gmail

50% chance they’ll keep their cloud 50% chance it’s already living dead like rackspace.

Everything else will go.

It’s starting to feel like google is in trouble.
They could carve out AdSense and rename it Doubleclick.net. Going back to the pre-2008 GOOGL would be quite nice, even if they had to charge for services like Search.
>Therefore no one wants to be that company.

I feel you overestimate the amount of fucks managers and HR give about Glasdoor feedback from rejected candidates in Germany. No company I interviewed at gave any meaningful feedback(for legal reasons) or seemed to care about opinions of rejected candidates knowing recruiters are constantly flooding them with resumes from new potential candidates on a daily basis and also most rejected candidates won't bother writing feedback on Glassdoor because once you've been around the block a few times you realize it's the norm and you're basically preaching to the choir.

Real world e-commerce app without Ivy (Angular 8) is ~500kb gzipped
The model has 18x512 parameters, and all 9000 parameters are 32-bit floats.

Even assuming only 16 bits of randomness for each parameter (to keep them small enough, so you don't get too wild, because the center of 0 is a pretty homogenized face), 16^9000 is a lot of permuations of faces.

They will, of course, borrow from all of the 70k faces on Flickr that power StyleGAN, in varying degrees.
Yes, same goes for Vue etc. You can hardly govern the freedom React provides. If you do, you can use Angular in the first place, because it has solutions out of the box. This is not to discredit React or Vue.

I am judging from my experience developing applications with 200+ developers across continents. You can write crappy code in Angular as well, but it helps you govern your architecture and your app. If you want modular components that can be reused, go for Angular. For smaller things or landing pages use Vue, React.

My experience.
Angular has a lot of unique concepts that people find difficult to wrap their heads around. The Observable pattern, decorators, typescript, etc. When you throw things like NGRX and effective management of state / side-effects in the mix; things get exponentially more complex and difficult to scale.

I have personally witnessed companies take guys who have been slapping together "apps" in jQuery / .NET for the past 10 years and tell them "it's time to make the stack modern" and "we're going with Angular because we're a Microsoft house".

Things go very bad very quickly.

If you don't take the time to understand the Architecture behind scalable modern web applications you're going to have a bad time.

Anyone can slap together a quick and dirty app with Angular or React - not everyone can scale one correctly with thought given to the architecture behind these applications.
To be honest and having been there before you, it's not a good idea. You entered a crowded space with a product that do not yield blatant differentiation. Your marketing, brand image and storytelling are the only things that will lead users to your app.

I don't think web developers will elect a newborn CMS, trust that it doesn't fail for the 5 or more years, if you don't convince them your CMS and the company behind it is future proof. And on that matter, your landing page and your documentation matter more than everything else. Invest time and money in it.
This was done a few years back in Switzerland by national television. With the approval of everyone involved, a pentester was supposed to shut down the street lights in a medium-sized town.

The pentester got in, got to the correct controls and "failed" because the UI bugged out. It was rather funny to see the journalist/moderator be relieved, while the rep from the energy company and the security specialist both clearly knew that that was sheer luck and with a little more time the pentester could've gotten around the bug too.

Edit after checking the story again: The hacker thought he found the main control but was wrong and only turned the lights off in a tiny side street. So it did work and the "bug"/"luck" was that the UI was so confusing that the attacker got it wrong :D
Wow, you really opened my eyes with this comment. Thanks stranger! I'd never considered thinking like an edgelord before.
I think it speaks to the real point of hazing whiteboard trivia and time-waster takehomes: political gatekeeping.

Engineers in many companies are already given far worse job experience than what is paradoxically required on their resume to get in. Interesting or valuable projects are rare and lots of people fight over them.

Whiteboard hazing tests for fealty or naivety that will let existing engineers remain superior to you a lot of the time. Really smart people who would leapfrog you aren’t going to agree to be infantilized like that.

So it’s a filter on a certain combination of both competence and fealty. The company / department as a whole might have an incentive to hire really good people, but because lower level managers and engineers own the loose rubric of what counts as a good candidate performance, their incentives to hire only a subset of competent people who are also manipulated into being in their control will take precedence.

It’s so bad that we even have things like TripleByte now that are outsourcing options for filtering based on fealty while disingenuously claiming to be objectively filtering on skill assessment.
Some definitely can. There’s a Google Sheet out there listing many different chargers and their levels of compliance. I only remember that Apple did pretty well.
It is, and it's being actively developed by Google at a rather big expense.

Just like pretty much every other major opensource project - even Linux itself is majorly developed by a few corporations.
Anecdotal evidence. This is just the result of bad practices. React is less opinionated than Angular I'll give you that, so I guess that subpar angular might be preferable to subpar react.

Well-managed react is incomparable in power. Try to make a library like react-three-fiber using Angular, in less than 500lines of code.

I think it's just a matter of time until Tesla moves to a subscription model. The current model of selling FSD as an early adopter package relies a lot on the promise it will be there soon and the expectation that the value (and price) will go up. If Tesla doesn't deliver on their FSD promises before current owners start looking for their next car, there's a huge risk of disappointment. These will be customers who paid thousands of dollars for FSD functionality that they never got.

Turning FSD into a subscription solves this: allowing customers to take the functionality to their next car keeps the current customer base happy and avoids messing up resale value if Tesla does not manage to deliver FSD on current hardware. It also creates a huge incentive for current owners to make their next car also a Tesla.

Tesla is already starting to offer premium functionality such as entertainment on a subscription model. As soon as FSD is good enough that people actually want to pay monthly for it (and not just the promise of it), I expect Tesla will do the same for FSD (and maybe even for other things like performance upgrades).
That sounds reasonable, thanks for the detailed response.

> And to be perfectly honest, "cloud" isn't a proper term to begin with.

Completely agree, it’s just a marketing buzzword.
Can you show one example where that has worked?

This model can already be used right now - and it hasn't been successful at all. Especially when there are other players left in the market that subsidise their development.

* Performance (e.g. challenges, obstacles, short/long term goals, feedback, productivity)

* Professional development & engagement (e.g. professional goals, training, engagement, coaching)

* Contribution to company growth (e.g. process improvement, supporting colleagues, training pilot/ buddy programs, any other activities)

* Things done / achievements since last 1on1

* Feedback for the manager (e.g. what he/she could have done better/differently since last 1:1, what you/the team is missing)

In summary: What can be done for you, the team and company aside from just "correct individual contribution".

Try to avoid discussing things related to lifecycle of ongoing projects. Those should be handled within your team's standard execution flow. If there's need to talk more on a 1:1 then probably you have a gap there.

Of course in an ideal world in a company that supports ongoing feedback and people are not afraid to raise any issues on a daily basis it should be just: "Hey, do you have anything to talk about? - Nope, everything we discussed on a daily basis. - Ok, same here".

In the real world, there are always things which "there's never a good time for" and periodical check-up is useful for that just like a team retrospective.

Here is the one big important thing that Zope Page Templates (and Kid and Genshi) got right: don't violate standards and be incompatible with standard tools, for no good reason:

>Zope Page Templates

>As mentioned previously, Zope Page Templates are themselves XHTML documents, which means they can be viewed and edited using normal HTML editors or XHTML compliant tools (a big advantage compared to other template languages used for Web applications). Templates can also be checked for XHTML compliance so you can be fairly confident that they will automatically expand into proper XHTML.
There was a pic of an older guy, but what was unsettling was the woman peeking over his shoulder; like a friend or a family member, leaning into the photo.

Yes.

Take a look at what you have to go through if you want to create a custom component in angular material (that can sit inside a form):

https://material.angular.io/guide/creating-a-custom-form-fie...

Something has gone completely wrong here.
Yes, this is exactly the case. Android is Google's opensourced software that's being continously supported and developed by Google. And that also includes Google making deals with partners to install said operating system on their devices, making sure it's compatible across the ecosystem and providing long-term support.

If you order Google to abandon the project, you're effectively ordering to stop them from investing into the operating system while allowing their main competitor to keep subsidizing development of their iOS operating system.
Dunno, watching people cat something then pipe it to grep drives me up the wall. I'll let piping grep to wc -l instead of just using -c pass this time though.
Fully agree. I think it means small non-tech companies are better off sticking to SaaS offerings instead of rolling out their own (e.g. wordpress.com vs hosting your own). It's limiting in some cases but at least it's actively developed.
It has probably been improved since I last tried it but this is one of the reasons I picked Angular over React. Having a router, HTTP client, forms, i18n, etc. out of the box compared to having to find/evaluate/integrate/maintain the various libraries that build on React to get the same functionality was a great benefit.

The other reason is the first class TypeScript and RxJS support.

Question: is io_uring only worth using for writing to files, or does it provide performance benefits when reading from them, as well?

I've seen database programmers rave about the speed benefits of asynchronous I/O, because they have to store a lot of data on disk. But the majority of programs I write only have to deal with reading files. I'd love to try using io_uring, but only when it's appropriate.

Unfounded opinion.

react-three-fiber is much bigger than 500 lines of code.

I'm in the same boat as you. The windows forms designer is such a joy to use. But as soon as you need to add special behavior to some controls it can get quite hairy. I've never encountered a complete roadblock, but we have a ton of code for windows forms controls which look more like workarounds or cheap hacks. But hey, it works.

I also like the consistency of windows forms. This is awesome for administrative and business users, who just want to get their work done. There are no UI surprises. But your tool will look like an ugly duck, if it is used in an environment with shiny Web and WPF applications.

For this reason alone, we had to make a split between forms and WPF applications. Windows Forms for administrative UI, WPF for end users. (By the way: I recommend outsourcing the design part to another company specialized in WPF design. Designing nice WPF UI is a black art.)

There's also the fact that Microsoft calls forms legacy tech, but I'm not yet too concerned. I would be more concerned to rewrite all WPF application with the next shiny framework coming around...
