> It's hard to keep good people in support because it's difficult and often underpaid because its a cost of good sold.

That's one way to look at it. Another is that it's marketing and brand-building. Yet another is that it's user research. And vital data for process improvement, product improvement, and waste reduction.

In reading about Lean Manufacturing, one of the most interesting things I learned is that companies that successfully transition to it don't just change their manufacturing. They change their accounting. That's because traditional accounting has viewpoints baked into it that conflict with long-term improvement.
The reason it's not been recommended in the US is because it's not really part of our culture, and so we don't have a huge supply of them

It's a part of Japanese culture, and while they may have had a huge supply of them, there are mask shortages now. People there seem more upset about the price gougers than the mask shortage.

Honestly the amount doesn't even matter. If we could make a baseball amount of negative energy but needed a Jupiter amount, sure, that looks solvable.

But we don't even know if it's theoretically possible to create a baseball amount of negative energy. As long as that question hasn't been answered, any discussion about practical applications seems rather pointless.

I would counter that you often think you know it when you see it, but may be incorrect. Knowing more about the circumstances and why something is done often reduces or eliminated the creepiness, in that what you assumed was the reason behind the behavior wasn't correct.

Nuro | Robot Reliability Engineer, Security Engineer, more | Mountain View, CA | Full-time | On-site | https://nuro.ai

Nuro is a robotics startup whose mission is to accelerate the benefits of robotics for everyday life.

We are building delivery robots and need engineers to help make them run safely, securely, and efficiently. Robot Reliability Engineers run the software that Nuro designs and builds, on the robots that Nuro designs and builds.

This role is for people that love solving hard hardware-software problems under real world conditions. The problems you will face vary wildly. One day you will be profiling the Linux kernel, another day you will be debugging a firmware problem, and the next day you will be writing code to validate sensor data. A strong grasp of programming and computers is necessary. Some relevant skills are shell/Python/Go/C++, containers/virtual machines, operating systems, firmware, embedded hardware/software, networking, security, wireless protocols, encryption, file systems, and kernel profiling.

Security Engineer:

As one of the first security engineers hired at Nuro, you will play a major role in architecting and building our security infrastructure and processes as well as building a best-in-class security team. This position demands broad security expertise, engineering skills, and determined execution.

I think how low it gets really depends on the person. For me, it's basically zero burden. I don't have to think about these things, the compiler thinks about them! That's kind of the point.

> Actually, they can set a different IP for each session and rotate them by given it to the client out of band, for example when it authenticates to the service.

Like I said, Wireguard does not have the concept of sessions. You could add your own proprietary "stuff" around Wireguard to add that concept, but then you don't need anything extra from Wireguard. You add the keys of the users as part of the session setup and remove them when the session is destroyed. Of course, this means that clients have to use a client tool provided by you.

SamKnows | Systems Administrator | Onsite | London, United Kingdom | https://samknows.com/careers/sysadmin

SamKnows is the global leader in internet performance measurement. We’ve been collecting data since 2008 on all manner of metrics, from how good Netflix performance is to figuring out why Fortnite isn’t working for gamers. Our infrastructure spans six continents and consists of more than 700 servers as well as third party edge infrastructure. The majority of these servers are bare metal ‘test servers’, which act as endpoints for speed tests and other measurement traffic. These have very high bandwidth - sometimes 100Gbit/s! Our broader infrastructure uses a mixture of bare metal (primarily for our very large database servers) and cloud-hosted services.

Role requirements:

- Strong Linux server administration background (preferably CentOS / Redhat)

- Shell scripting knowledge

- Experience with administering MySQL servers

- Knowledge of Puppet or a similar automation tool is highly beneficial

- Experience of server monitoring tools, such as Nagios

- A good understanding of DNS

- Experience in configuring Apache and Nginx

- A willingness to be part of on-call rota one week in three

- Experience with Github is beneficial
True. But we seem so fixated on avoiding any economic downturn that we prioritize the short term over the long term. Wouldn’t it make sense to take a hit in the short term and try more aggressively to slow the spread of coronavirus, for instance, than to react as it becomes a pandemic? Unless we think that containment was always destined to fail with this particular virus.
> Ever wondered why black box, aftermarket engine management systems can cost thousands of dollars?

There’s actually a pretty good reason. I can’t imagine starting a new engine management project in 2020 without using an FPGA to interface with engine positioning sensors and outputs. Modern engines tend to be way too complicated to coordinate without paying close attention to your modeling of where all the fast moving mechanical bits are currently.

It’s cool they released this as open-source but the tech would have been novel circa 1992.

How come neither SWIFT nor ECB are involved?
Using integer codes like 0 and -1 were the old style of returning errors. Often combined with some undocumented features.

It is really wrong, but that is caused by the C-functions returning only one integer of data. And the bad C libraries. Null used to be -1 in some compilers. Mixing pointers as integers is a recipe for disaster, not compatible with some CPU-s, but it is C-standard.

In the windows32 API they improved it a bit, with functions that only returned an Error code. They required struct addresses in which results were placed. I think that the process structure is also a lot better than the fork() function.
This has been my basic thought on FTL:

1) Negative mass, well, if you take one impossible thing you can make other impossible things happen. So you've just shuffled your impossibles around.

2) None of this still tells me what happens when you create a closed timelike curve and attempt hijinx.
