I just wish it didn't take time and effort. :)

There was a science fiction story I read once where the main character would get into an "exercise box" where all his muscles were stimulated and he came out well-muscled and fit. There was also some twist where he either couldn't afford or didn't have time to be put to sleep, so he had to endure all the pain.

I happened to be next to a store in Central Mexico when an armored cash pickup truck showed up. It was a MUCH more intense scene than the pickups I've seen in the states. There were multiple guards in the parking lot, guns drawn, that looked very alert; they weren't just going through the motions.

Nothing happened and the stop was done in a couple minutes, but it reminded me of how different the daily lives of those guards must be from any job I've ever worked.

Twitter is removing those because it's of their own internal backend, not because they're necessarily connected to the hack. Huge leap from Mboard on this
Did you read the letter? If not go read it. They’re essentially making a complaint to the manager of their society. Their criticisms are there and public. They’re within their right to do so. The society considered and rejected the merits of the complaint or decided it didn’t rise to the level of warranting removing Pinker’s honorary title.

The letter may have been entirely fabricated since its not even verified. Which even leaves open the possibility this is a very small group of “cranks” who wrote it and forged people’s names which then gets turned into “OMG CANCEL CULTURE” level story.

What are the “get them fired” and “makes them feel unsafe” ones? Is that where Bari Weiss tried to get the professors fired and suggest she was harassed at work because she misrepresented things that went on inside NYT and a whole bunch of other NYTers were like “uh, no that didn’t happen”, then she made a big splash this week about the end of “centrism” leading to the past few days of endless media navel gazing about cancel culture?

There are real cases of people trying to get others fired and plenty of real cases of reporters being “cancelled” for having contrary opinions (such as on Israel-Palestine) over the decades. But strangely those aren't the cases the media are talking about.

> What happens when active people are 1/3rd of the population or less and there are no more easy gains to be had?

Old people retire, opening up jobs for younger workers. Old people die, freeing up housing stock and capital and tax money. And these will happen long before Croatia or Romania achiever maximum productivity. There's plenty of fat left to be trimmed.

As long as the sustained rate of youth emigration is below the mortality rate -- or marginally higher while the country continues to develop -- conditions should improve for working age people (ignoring the chaos of politics).

But perhaps I'm misunderstanding your implication or just not thinking this through. Could you elaborate on some of the negatives?
Without shutting down it wouldn't be amortized.

You'd effectively have millions of additional deaths from lack of hospital capacity, more than doubling the yearly death rate. And additionally you'd have millions of more people with debilitating complications from all causes.

That's absolute insanity. You're devaluing life. Stop it. It's frankly scary to think you're out there.
How to not give money to the scammers who hacked Elon Musk’s Twitter account
You're underestimating the situation. One possibility is that someone has some information that can be used to blackmail them be exposed. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a politician that used Twitter DMs in such a fashion.
What makes you think it's even a "bug"? Perhaps poor administrative / operational controls, insider job, etc.
I would argue it's kinda the opposite. With some trades, the SEC knows who you are but there's no direct connection from your transaction to the hacking, so you're free to do whatever with the money and if your trade is this small it'll probably blend right in.

With Bitcoin, sure nobody knows who owns this account, but the blockchain will store every transaction this account and future accounts make, so trying to actually use the Bitcoin is a fair amount harder.
How many DM’s would have been read ... could it be for black mailing? Anyways would love to see a postmortem ( if Twitter shares such)
I have a standard preface to start a live coding or technical session with a candidate to account for this. I look up stuff all the time, and expecting candidates to not do so is cruel.

> We're going to go through a few technical exercises together. It's open book, open documentation, use whatever resources you would normally use — though please do not copy and paste complete solutions from StackOverflow and guess&check to reach our solution. It's open language, so please select whatever you're strongest in. If it is a language I am not familiar with, I will ask questions. Some of those questions may be naive. Use whatever editor and environment you're most comfortable in. Please ask questions of me. There is no specifically correct answer, though your solutions should hit a level of baseline correctness. These problems are designed to mirror some typical day-to-day problems you might face on the job; we're not looking to test rote memorization of _Hacking the Coding Interview_. We want working code, but some aspects or edge cases may remain in pseudocode as we iterate on these problems together. There are no designed 'gotcha' moments in these exercises, and if you feel there may be a 'gotcha' moment, ask clarifying questions. I would rather you ask questions than struggle through a solution.

It works well for modern development.

Someone posted in the main thread that twitter was releasing a new API tommorow. It was definitely getting patched soon.
My University had GSuite for all students and faculty. Meet supports up to 250 participants for a normal call and Livestream only for up to 100,000 viewers.

I imagine Microsoft has a similar offering for schools that use their products. I don't see a case where it makes sense for schools to be rolling their own livestream platform and paying these fees.

Edit: I'm not positive if the Livestream capabilities are included in the free Education package or just the enterprise package.

The closest thing I can think of is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibody-dependent_enhancement....

There's no way in which having real antibodies, but a reduced amount of them, would be worse than not having antibodies, but the following is very possible:

> It is likely that in older people the production of antibodies is slower and by the time the antibodies are developed in the titer that is sufficient to neutralize the virus, the virus changes its antigenic determinants. In this case, immuno-dominant neutralizing antibodies might start forming unstable complexes with the new form of the virus and start to infect monocytes/macrophages causing ADE. This process can trigger generalized infection of immune cells in multiple organs and cytokine storm

The valid criticisms of the accuracy of these studies are missing the forest for the trees. A major exchange would utterly cripple the global economy, destroy much of our electrical generation and distribution infrastructure, along with our information storage and processing systems, and our manufacturing capability to rebuild it.

Sounds obsessive, and maybe even a ADA violations here if due to a learning disability. Reminds me of that one judge that was doing that cash for kids scandal. However sounds like Michigan is a police state right now, like for example it's illegal to even buy seeds to garden in some cases, like if you wanted to grow your own corn. A lot of overreach, something to keep in mind if you were planning on moving.
Wouldn't it be a more balanced approach if the technical problem were presented on the spot to __all__ interview participants, not just the candidate?

It's a technical job, it must be a collaborative effort in finding solutions! Aren't we looking for a team member, not a lone-ninja.

Sure, the candidate has to be more vested in advancing the process, but the fact that there's no known-ahead answer would potentially surface not only technical skills, but also personal ones, and ... at both ends of the table.

Not to mention, the "house-experts" could find such sessions stimulating, to say the least... Imagine, you get back to your desk after interviewing a candidate, and your team mates ask you "so what was the tech problem this time?", "could you crack it?", "did he/she crack it?".

Have you posted about this on the gfortran mailing lists? They are generally interested in examples that show where the compiler could be improved.
No, it doesn't require that the groups be interchangeable. The point is that if something would be a racist attack if directed at one race, it would have the same nature if directed at any race. If it would be just a non-racist statement of fact that is critical of one race, it would be the same no matter which race it was directed at.

People will argue over the facts, naturally. That's as it should be. But if you are encouraged to criticize one race without penalty, whether the criticism is factually correct or not, but you aren't allowed to criticize another without being guilty of "racism", whether the criticism is factually correct or not, it's not about the facts. It's about who you can criticize and who you can't, regardless of your specific claims or evidence.

In other words, if you want to judge its nature, swap races. If the only thing that would happen if you swapped races is someone would say, "well then that wouldn't be factually correct", then it IS just about facts. But if instead, those in power would rage about racism and punish the "offender", they are not merely disputing facts. Something else is happening.
Shorting stocks will be suspicious if they do it from accounts who have never done much volume before. There are insider traders who are caught all the time doing 1 big trade (relative to their account values and previous activity) miraculously at the right time.
For one it's a bit of a cultural standard - like appearing in a suit for the interview; it doesn't show your qualification, but it shows basic etiquette (it's no longer as usual as it used to be and not the best example, but I think it gets the point across). Also, an image helps you form a more personal connection to a person.

But I'm not a recruiter myself, so take that with a grain of salt.

And from a recent update: https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/ny-decapitate...

> The worried sister went to the apartment because she hadn’t seen her brother in a day, and arrived only to find his butchered body, cops said.

> The suspect bolted via a staircase as the sister rode the elevator upstairs to visit victim Fahim Saleh, with her impending arrival interrupting the killer’s efforts to scrub the bloody condo clean and dispose of the body, the source said.

> “He was dressed like a ninja, full out, so you can’t even see his face,” the source said. “He clearly knew what he was doing. We think his intent was to get rid of the body parts and go back and clean it up and make it look like nothing happened. He left before he finished the job.”

> The assassin stabbed him repeatedly in the chest to kill him, according to his autopsy results. He used a stun gun to incapacitate Saleh before murdering him, police sources said.

> A police source indicated investigators believed the grisly execution was prompted by a business deal gone lethally bad.
This implies that recruiters set the order and people using a tool should oblige the recruiters.

There are LinkedIn users who use it to just keep in contact with people they have worked with, don't accept recruiter contact requests and so forth (I am not one of those people, but I have seen their periodic articles on how they use LinkedIn, and also I know one guy who is basically like that - he has some recruiters but only the ones he actually worked with)

At any rate dependent on your job putting your child into your profile picture might not be a problem for the normally understood parameters of that job, as for me it wouldn't affect my view of the person's suitability for any position I can think of but then I tend to be more on the lax spectrum of social requirements and etiquette.
I want to push back on this a bit.

Writing working code well and fast is important.

But so is communicating with your coworkers!

Being able to talk about your code is not a weird thing you only do in interviews. It's an essential part of your everyday work, and the programmers who don't do this well are in a sense underperforming.

So just removing the talking part, as this study did, removes an important part of the interviewing. When I interview people, I value their ability to talk about the problem and how they think about it more than coming up with great code quickly. I need people who can talk to me, not just the compiler.

That said, talking through your whiteboard programming task might not be the ideal way to measure this skill either.
one of my professors described TCL as "what a bunch of grad students made for a programming language". Always got a chuckle out of me.
You're probably right. After reading through https://twitter.com/TwitterSupport/ it looks like Twitter has been disabling some features. And according to https://twitter.com/louanben/status/1283518716118958080/phot... the @TwitterSupport account was also affected. I doubt they use a system like HootSuite for that account.
Chomsky is consistent in his defense of free speech. It’s funny anyone would be upset with him since he is someone who has effectively been cancelled by mainstream media over the decades for his views of topics such as Palestine it US imperialism.

But that’s just it. We have given everyone on the world a way to speak now, amongst those people you’re going to find a subset who maybe have a poorly formed opinion about something, and they’re going to voice it.

> It's an algorithm, so you're probably looking for a higher level block diagram or something like a pseudocode explainer?

Not so much. What I'd really like is a differential design analysis, i.e. "if it didn't do [this step], then the output distribution would look like [graph] instead of [graph], or it would be vulnerable to [attack]" or "if, instead of doing [step] here, it did [other step], then we would have what is known as the [some other algorithm]."
This really depends on context. When evaluating a likelihood (prediction), "average" is generally colloquial for "expected median."
that implication is, I believe, the commonly understood one.
Motorcycles kill thousands every year in Nigeria. It kills more than cars and buses combined. Such business has been banned virtually in all state capitals in Nigeria for about a decade ago. Lagos state was the only major state where such was functioning until lately.
What is your concern about uninhibited spread? Do you feel that, even given the existing seroprevalence, we could not lift all restrictions without risking overwhelming our healthcare system, which more-or-less never happened even during the peak?
It's possibly by type and not mass, ie, one of each type of antibody versus various strains of COVID. I think that would make the most sense to me given the conclusion--if you don't have the right antibodies but have some you may be more susceptible to some strains and less susceptible to other strains. I will see if I get the time to find the original source.
I don't understand this angle because typically admin panels only let you manage the account; deactivate, manage email address, etc. As shown in the screenshots.

Tweeting on behalf of another user seems like an unnecessary feature to give admins.
Many languages forbid mutable strings. They aren't really a very good idea, imo. Even less of a good idea are extensible strings. More complex data structures are required for efficient extensible strings, and this complexity shouldn't be hidden in a simple interface. Better to have a Buffer type or something that is distinct from the String type so programmers are made aware of the performance/allocation characteristics.

Though, this is kind of ridiculous to even talk about, since the CPU and compiler itself are responsible for the greatest sins of hiding something unimaginably complex behind a simple interface.

Ah, the joys of the 6502 and the Commodore 64!
I do not think this is true. Please tell me what marketing company would both manage Obama's very professional twitter, and at the same time commit fraudulent manipulation of Tesla's stock price.

I used to 'sit in' on interviews, and basically say very little except to answer questions about working here or to serve as the 'linter' to get them unstuck.

You hear something very different than the person who asked the question. And in one case I discovered that my coworker had been asking a question that he thought he knew the answer to and did not; a deep clone implementation (where he never asked about cyclic graphs).
It wouldn't just show up some day, ambush style.

It would be slowly getting closer and closer over centuries.

The warning doesn't really change how the story ends though...
Amazon does not really have centralized hiring. Each team hires for itself, though there are bar raisers from outside the team designed to be a counterweight to desperate hiring managers.
No kidding, when I met with an AWS salesperson, I joked that AWS had more services than there are nouns in the dictionary. He quickly rattled off the current grand total of services, but would not make an attempt at listing them all.
True, "winning the argument" is one of the main drawbacks I fear. The main benefits for me is to foster (often quick) logical thinking and reasoning and the ability to articulate it. It is difficult to build this skill without a "debate team" setting. More so if your kids are more on the shyness scale.
