That visceral response is on a sliding scale and different people have different responses. That's one of the tough things about designing software for mass consumption; people actually love that feature too (they have the data to know, both through use of the feature and user testimonial).

Seeking the balance point is an ongoing process.
Yes this is true. But it doesn't seem that big to me: 10% extra budget isn't nothing, but it's at a few schools which are competing with private schools, which (I think) charge more like 2-3 times as much.

And this is the top fraction of 1% of public schools. The merely top-20% schools, nice suburbs far away from wall street, they raise a fraction of this. I don't think it can explain very much of what's different there compared to the bottom-20% schools across town.
I detest Trump (voted for Clinton) and most, if not all, senior members of his administration, including Barr. But that doesn't prevent me from ultimately being OK with some of their statements/actions, even if they're all for the wrong reasons. The regime in China represents evil on a scale that is probably unprecedented in Earth's history, and anything that can stop or slow its world domination should be welcomed or at the very least acquiesced to. That regime is bad for the overwhelming majority of Chinese people (regardless of race and religion), bad for everyone else, and bad for the planet.

The above paragraph risks triggering some knee-jerk "what about the US/NATO?" responses. Let me save you the trouble: the West is guilty of countless crimes, especially against non-White people. But at least for some periods in history, most citizens of most Western countries were not systematically disenfranchised, monitored, disappeared, tortured, and killed. Yes, living in America while being Black, Hispanic, Arab (that's me), Muslim (ditto), etc. there's still a lot of anxiety, discrimination, and even danger. But it's incredibly naive to think the people of China are not orders of magnitude more oppressed and in constant fear for their livelihoods, lives, and loved ones.
Tactical Privacy: Protect Against U.S. Warrantless Surveillance
nice thread. sorry for the noisy comment, but most threads similar to this end up with folks griping that the interviewer asked them to invert a binary tree or other such super basic stuff that -- no, you do not do every day or even ever at all, but -- is 101 level stuff that you better be able do in a few minutes from first principles. sticking with that theme, even AVL or red/black you better be able to describe it off the top of your head although asking to implement a working solution covering all edge cases in the span of an interview session is nonsense.

no, in this thread people are describing actually hard, complex algorithms and ridiculous interviews. so sad to see that these questions are still being asked today.

this is the best thread on this subject that i have ever seen on HN.

This identical scam has been running in full force on YouTube ever since Bitcoin's halving event. I wonder how much this contributed to the lack of success of the Twitter scam.
If you read more about it, the people accusing him and calling for the game cancellation are NOT the clients of the gamedev. Since I am in that field more or less I know why the distancing from him was necessary, and had nothing to do with the buyers.

The other thing is, the accusation (it was a single one in fact) was flimsy, the accusar have accused a lot of other people over the years and made some weird claims (like claiming she murdered a person in an alleyway)

I said twitter mob because it was a twitter mob, literally, outsied twitter he was not that bashed, it was only on twitter that there was a huge storm of people bashing him, mostly people that weren't going to buy his game in first place.
Certainly a single tweet like that will not start a war .

The tweets would have to be subtle and not something you wouldn’t say or now can back down from easily without damaging your reputation .

Social engineering is not a hammer , it needs find grained understanding of psychology , pressure points and what resonates with the crowds , these are skills which blue checks also need to be well blue checks that’s probably why they are more scared .

manipulating public opinion is their day job after all .

Deep fakes and hacks like this are scary for them coz these attack at the core of their strength - the trust the people have in them and their ability to manipulate it .
It's not illegal. That's the point. You're arguing that it should be illegal to ever complain about anyone. Writing "the waiter was rude" in a review shouldn't be a criminal offense.
Stack ranking intuitively makes sense. Rank people by performance, fire the bottom 10% or so, promote the top 10%.

The first iteration can work very well. But what about the next iterations? People will adapt to the process and change their behavior.

Under stacked ranking, if you are interviewing someone brilliant that can potentially be the strongest member on your team, is it in your best personal interest to hire that person?

The answer is: no. Because if you add high performance members to your team, with each iteration of stacked ranking not only it will be harder for you to be promoted, but you will be closer to being terminated.

So what ends up happening is that people hire the worst possible candidates, which defeats the purpose of stacked ranking. With stacked ranking, instead of iterating towards stronger people, you iterate towards mediocre, political people.

I think it's great to learn how to type more efficiently (especially if you're coding or demonstrating in front of an audience), but for coders, typing is not the bottleneck (unless you truly hunt-and-peck), so the comparison to a violinist is not valid. Learning shortcut keys is probably at least as important as typing fast.
The instantaneous nature of the internet is one of the single biggest contributors to the low-quality nature of news content today, and in my opinion, needs to be rethought.

The reason is that publications no longer have the benefit of the doubt when they publish something wrong. If a story with a malicious source runs, that publication can't argue that they were duped by a bad source. The community will automatically accuse them of pushing fake news, regardless of whether or not it was intentional. The media no longer has any benefit of the doubt due to the intense political opposition.

Also contributing to this is a publication's desire to be first to run a breaking story. This creates a scenario where a publisher has to decide between waiting for additional sourcing to corroborate a big story or risking losing out to a competitor who may run the story first.

It's one of the main reasons that I try not to actively support Twitter-driven journalism and instead put my journalism dollars towards publications that do long-form writing that takes time and patience to produce. The late-breaking Twitter world is just too often a Kobayashi Maru situation for publications.
100% agree. I will build on this by saying that it’s almost as important to not go overboard such that you’re “thank you” is meaningless. I had a coworker once who did this constantly and it at least to me ended up coming off as disingenuous and kind of smarmy.

One way to fight this is to push yourself to give TSP: Truthful Specific Positive feedback. Instead of saying “nice job”, say “You did a nice job on that project by making sure to keep stakeholders informed. Especially when the API that was originally scoped got scrapped you made sure to loop people in early.” The former tells them they did a “Nice job” which feels nice but doesn’t tell them what they did right or how to do it well again. Anyone could say "Nice job" without knowing any part of what they contributed.

The latter specifically highlights why you’re saying it’s a nice job. Now they can 1) take that information knowing they can have good results by repeating it and 2) feel better about the thanks/compliment knowing it's based on something they actually did, instead of a just a general pat on the back.

Looping this back to the original post, the more specific your positive feedback is to the manager, the more they can do with it. If I went to my manager and said one of my reports deserves a promotion because "People said they were doing a 'Nice job'", I'd likely be laughed at. But if I go in with "So-and-so did a bang up on job on project X by doing A, B, and C", that's going to be a much more fruitful conversation.

That applies to the minority as well. The minority will benefit themselves even if it harms the majority and involves stealing from the 90%. NIMBY policies are exactly that where wealthy landowners vote and use their wealth to exclusively benefit themselves over everyone else. Rural voters can do the same thing where they vote in people and ways that explicitly harm the larger city as some sort of perceived revenge policy.

Which then goes back to the person you responded to: That the majority and the minority can both make wrong policy decisions.
Sounds similar to GDPR.
For three years or so I taught week long corporate training classes at Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, eBay, PayPal, Cisco and Intel. Every week, week after week, real rocket-science level Android and iOS deep-dive in to the guts of the operating system classes dealing with firmware and device drivers and file systems. In the classes we didn't build apps, we built operating system components. Small to large classes, thousands of software engineers from senior and up, over the course of those three years.

I would stand up in front of 80 or more engineers, go in to esoteric aresa of the operating and talk eloquently and at length about the structures and code found there, and live code on a projector, answering questions about the code and debugging the code of everyone in my class as they followed along. Day-after-day. 40+ hours a week. It was intense. I became an independent advisor to teams and a consultant for some of the groups on how to bring up Android on new devices, create device drivers, and so forth.

Some of those classes, I wondered how some of the people I was teaching was actually able to hold down their job.

Months later, after I stopped teaching, I interviewed at Intel and PayPal and Cisco. I bombed every interview. I was, by all accounts, unable to program my way out of a wet paper bag.

Once again, it's a completely separate issue. You can have a centralized service that also uses an open protocol that people can make custom clients for. Furthermore, people use stuff like Tor for anonymity with decentralized systems. Trusting a central system to keep your information private is a risk of itself.

I don't think they are related. I think what stops that from happening is open feedback across the company and hiring the right people. No one is really thinking, "man I would totally screw this person if not for the bad review they might give me!". Especially since the reviews only happen once a year.

If you do something negative to someone, that person will either directly address it with you or your manager at the time. The reviews are more to address longer term behavior.

Greed to me is a funny word here. If illegal antitrust actions are occurring, well that’s obviously bad for the consumer and market, but you say greed as if DRAM makers owe something to the public? They’re a technology business who exist to make money by definition. It’s not a non-profit.

Few questions:

1. How do you determine who fits into the A cohort and who fits into the B cohort? If I refresh could I fit into a different cohort and thus see a different price? If I go Incognito?

2. Instead of a 50/50 A/B test, can you multi-arm bandit a handful of different price points and shift a higher proportion to the "best" one? And thus be able to change over time as well?

What are you talking about? Not everything you dislike is a logical fallacy.

The Vietnam War was a war, and wars cause civilian casualties. North Vietnam ran a very effective, organized campaign of terror against South Vietnam and its supporters. The South Vietnamese and American forces were each responsible for many deaths of innocents, through negligence and more isolated malevolence.
> All these protests are because police murdered innocent people.

I would argue the protests are demanding general change of policing, not limited to killing of civilians (dark-skinned or otherwise).

There is nothing special about the lack of accountability when police kill. They are also not held sufficiently accountable when they screw up the address while executing a warrant, strangle or punch or kick or taze or detain innocents or torture arrested civilians in a police black site (in Chicago) or (as happened in my city) harass the private practice of the Independent Police Auditor (who quit the role because the harassment adversely affected the business).

Every little interaction with police that causes civilians more stress, financial burden, or even just disrespect is a potential cause for someone to demand police accountability. Hell, even when an officer covers their badge number or demands that a video recording of them on the job be deleted is sufficient for me to demand accountability. Police killings in the USA (according to police reports) are a rare occasion (consistently about 1000 per year). The total number of police-civilian interactions per year is something like 100Million (I've seen police unions use this figure).
