Aquabyte | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | Senior Data Engineer, Product Manager | ONSITE, VISA https://jobs.lever.co/aquabyte/

Aquabyte (https://www.aquabyte.ai, backed by NEA and Costanoa, top tier investors) is on a mission to revolutionize the sustainability and efficiency of aquaculture. It is an audacious, and incredibly rewarding mission. By making fish farming cheaper and more viable than livestock production, we aim to mitigate one of the biggest causes of climate change and help prepare our planet for impending population growth. Aquaculture is the single fastest growing food-production sector in the world, and now is the time to define how technology is used to harvest the sea for generations to come.

Watch our TV episode with Amazon CTO Werner Vogels here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ_qJ5JFD3I

Through custom underwater cameras, computer vision, and machine learning we are able to quantify fish weights, detect sea lice infestations, and generate optimal feeding plans in real time. Our product operates at three levels: on-site hardware for image capture, cloud pipelines for data processing, and a user-facing web application. As a result, there are hundreds of moving pieces and no shortage of fascinating challenges across all levels of the stack.

In terms of just nomenclature, I think I like the consistency of having all of the current lineup actually be called GeForce 30XX.
there is RSS feed sign at the bottom of the page.

Absolutely lost it about a minute in when he goes "you guys can't.. Just do that.."
Those are very wide search requests. There is no reason to think that more specific geofence requests would also be thrown out is there?

There is another question here too: with more complex analysis like this, what is a good definition of a geofence? A 45min window around a busy intersection might catch a few 1000 people. But would the same geofence be OK if it was combines: who from intersection A in window1 was also at intersection B in window2? Presumably that would be OK if the number of people caught was lower compared to the number of criminals sought, and it would be much lower.

Finally, people should note that that data legally belongs to the company not the user. If Google agreed to cooperate (as mobile phone companies do) it would be entirely legal for all the data (and more) to be turned over and used, no questions asked.
Allegedly beats the 2080 TI, not just the regular one.
Notably Microsoft's "Microsoft Authenticator app" allows you to pick much shorter codes than rival products. This is definitely unsafe. For example if I tell Google's app that the secret key for my vanity site is 333 it rejects that as too short, but Microsoft's app will cheerfully begin showing "correct" six digit TOTP codes for the secret 333

What exactly is going on with that URL is interesting and since I wasn't immediately able to discover more with some obvious Google searches I'll spend some time poking it later. It will cheerfully POST something to the provided URL and it didn't like the 404 error my vanity site gives back but that's as far I looked so far.

My instinct which I haven't verified is that the (too short) nine digit code may all that protects you when using the one time codes, the URL is for their device notification mechanism, and the way it makes you give the device both allows you (or an Azure administrator) to change which is used later.

Both these are bad news. For the too short secrets what you do is this:

"Hi what's your OTP?" X
"I'm sorry, we had a temporary problem. Please wait until a new OTP appears and enter that one." Y

Then you just try all billion secrets and one of them spits out X followed by Y at the appropriate times, you now have the nine digit secret and the "one time" system is trashed.

For the verification it's in some ways even worse, again you just send the user to a phishing site and:

"I'm sorry, for security reasons we're sending you a two factor verification right now, please press Accept".

And then the user cheerfully hits accept and lets you in.

What I particularly love is that Microsoft appears to have bought an entire company to acquire these bad technologies. It would be interesting to learn from key people at Google how they think Google hired and retained people who'd do good crypto design and why Microsoft wasn't able/ willing to do whatever it took to achieve the same.
Having been a part of a union I was mandated to enter when I took the job until the supreme court ruled that wasn't legal, actual unions are a far cry from how they are portrayed as helping the worker.

I would honestly do anything in my power to not have to work in a union again. They are set up as antagonistic between administration and workers, and adds a layer of bureaucracy that I've only seen be negative. I've worked with people who effectively could never be fired and were so bad at their jobs they spread negativity with everyone they encountered.

Résumé/CV: upon request

Email: hello[at]rodmatos[dot]xyz

Former software engineering bootcamp lecturer, sysadmin and newbie site reliability engineer looking for work in a software project that has measurable social impact. Been working with all software things related since 2012 and derive a lot of pleasure from being a multi tool type of engineer. A lot of my attention goes towards streamliming processes/code/organization. Simplicity is key.
Not surprised. Tech companies (Facebook and Google in this case, and probably others) have been known to retain Pinkerton agents to monitor employees. Yes, those Pinkertons.

“Among other services, Pinkerton offers to send investigators to coffee shops or restaurants near a company’s campus to eavesdrop on employees’ conversations.”

https://newrepublic.com/article/147619/pinkertons-still-neve...
Forbes has become nothing more than a tabloid. Article immediately after this one: "The Best Shampoo For Dandruff, According To Dermatologists".
Then why are we singling our TikTok? Why not ban any Chinese company from operating within our borders?
Wasn't there an article about him saying that he fancy himself as real life capt. Picard?
I agree 100%. The US's response to this entire pandemic was, and still is, a cluster fsck. A lot misinformation could have been prevented with strong and consistent leadership.
To add another dimension, the article makes no statements of productivity. Highly productive workers can demand higher salaries.

Now, I am not claiming they're highly productive (and suspect the opposite), but until the data is there we're missing an important factor in judging.
This is ridiculous.

There is nothing wrong with admission on merit, on the contrary. Unfortunately this has always ruffled some feather on the (far) left and so we periodically read such 'ideas' under the pretence of equality.

Now, obviously the most well-offs will always have an advantage. The positive and constructive solution is not the ideological rejection of merit but to invest in education and to push all pupils so that the brightest and more hard-working can succeed whatever their background may be: We need more actual meritocracy, which means trying to level the playing field to have fair competition (as far as realistic and practical).
Never ask the drivers about unionizing. I'm not saying that they will report it to their boss who will mess with your orders and deliveries.

But I am also not not saying that.
Nice remake, I'm playing it right now.

Some tips for those unfamiliar with it or the original:

* Stable release is rather dated, content-wise. Nightly includes good maps and mods. OTOH, nightly build has bugs and annoyances (like randomly changing some preferences and UI layout)

* The community is almost dead, you're on your own mostly.

* It's a really, really long game, prepare for months (which spans 200 years in game time). The first 10% is exploration, the last 10% is action, the rest are resource management, planning and logistics.

* If you're trying to play optimally on hard difficulty (which is kind of the point of the game), each turn in mid-game and later could easily take 20-30 min. Also you might want to have Excel around. :)
Depending on the angle of incidence relative to the radar, the cross-section can be quite large. But the resolution of the radar is almost certainly not sufficient to see the small object near the aircraft.
I sure hope not. This launch is SUPER exciting--I really want to get my hands on a 3070 once I can afford it. They better be in stock by then!
One great thing with the Apple Maps UI is that when using CarPlay it gives you a 3D view of the street. So you're really seeing buildings on the left and right, which has helped me not overshoot some destinations because I can 'see' the building in the map, and then irl.

I think what’s misleading is that there are so many different ways to both scramble eggs but also cook eggs in general that only are a function of these few things: heat, friction, and time. The ability for the proteins to do such different things totally based on your technique is unlike almost all other foods out there.

It sounds like you don’t like a soft scramble. That’s ok! You might want bigger curds or a harder scramble (not the same thing per se!). You can watch Jacques Pepin make an omelette that you might like (big curds), or I’m sure plenty of others out there with good instruction too.

“Celebrity chefs” are probably mostly teaching soft scrambles because you end up with a very silky rich product, and most people equate rich fatty velvety textured with “high end.” Ignore the Gordon Ramsey’s out there, they’re endless self promoters with oversized egos who take on the worst of toxic masculinity.
I've heard that in the past before 2008, banks were willing to offer mortgages up to 3.5x income at 5 or 6% interest.

With a fixed 3% rate, you could probably do a mortgage with 4x income. And a quick look shows there are not a lot of houses in the $600k range.

Most decent homes are going to be in the $1M range.

But, you're a software developer. As a developer testing isn't the exciting part of your work.

I'm also a dev and have had the chance to work with top notch QA testers. A good QA engineer is a blessing. Unfortunately that is not what an apple app reviewer does. Their work is much more boring.

> I dont know why youre getting downvoted, the latin-rich terminology in medicine is pompous and unnecessary.

C'mon! This may seems true for english speakers and non-romance languages. But I as a non-english native speaker, can say exactly the same about CS terminology! It is just too pompous and unnecessary, as it will in almost any other non-germanic/anglic language.
In what manner is it problematic? No one is being punished by the system predicting that they will commit a crime.
Corporate welfare is a problem.

Why do cities offer tax benefits to these companies at the expense of their own residents?

Ironic that SF is going broke with some of the richest companies ever residing here.
Most buzzwords exist for consultants to sell their services. Successful buzzwords turn engineers into "Big Data Engineers" who only want to work on something called big data, and convince management that they need more "big data expertise".

In practice most of these technologies and their peers exist to support real applications, and it would be almost immediately recognizable that they are the appropriate choice when working on a similar application. You don't need a streaming engineer/big data consultant to cram them in.

This is debatable. The default workflow requires access to crates.io, and it is pretty hard to not use crates.io.

I hear what you're saying. It is incredibly difficult and frustrating to hold a discussion with these types of people. But look at the life of Daryl Davis. Instead of socially isolating "those people", he reached out to them. By some counts, he's helped over 200 people leave the KKK. I believe his methods have been far more effective than socially ostracizing people.
Nobody gives a crap about TikTok or its executives.
If Trump puts them all in jail for life without a trial. I don't care about TikTok and their cronies.
If Trump decided to seize all billionaires' money and assets and distribute it equally to everyone, I would see that as a plus.

In this nonsensical economy, the pathetic moral arguments made by this article are word vomit. Not relevant to anyone's life. Nobody cares.
They should be locked up for abusing our collective brains with this irrelevant crap.
That sounds like 'The future will be no code development, will all the developers lose their job?'. I can see it happening in some business centric shops (outsourcing?), but going to happen at widespread scale at all.
They spent public money on the referendum, didn't they? If the subordinate government could do whatever they wanted, they wouldn't need a referendum, would they.
Not sure why you're downvoted, as this was a fact. If a country is behind, the best way to catch up is to copy, there's nothing wrong with that (especially since it was illegal for Western companies to sell computer technology into the East, see COCOM [1]). And at least for basic elements like CPUs and other microchips it would have been foolish to create parts that are incompatible with the rest of the world.

Is this surprising to anyone? Colleges battle each other to provide amenities, loans are easy to come by, and the colleges have nothing to lose when the students default.

I remember my first day of college (in 1993!) and remember part of registering was signing all of these forms where my options were a) take out loans and go to school or b) don't take out loans and don't go to school. I had no idea what it meant to carry debt. As it turns out, I was fortunate to only have $30k of debt and interest rates that eventually went down to 2%. Between then and now, the "all-in" cost of attending my college has increased 200%.
> 10x is often cited as the magic number beyond which technology is good enough to overcome network effects. I'm personally convinced that functional programming is 10x better than any other paradigm I've tried

Better for who? Bad code that ships is better than good code that doesn't. From a business perspective, I don't care if it's written in COBOL as long as it ships.

The critical missing piece in the functional argument is an example (or probably several) where a company using functional programming consistently outperformed one that wasn't. By default, the business will be opposed to using anything that isn't one of the big programming languages because haskell/scala programmers are expensive. Why would I pay a bunch of expensive haskell programmers to build a chat app? I could build something that got me 80% of the way there for 30% of the cost.

I think Haskell can flourish in places where correctness matters - fintech, factory control systems, and weapons come to mind. But in the vast majority of places that employ programmers, correctness doesn't actually matter. One argument for this is that requirements change so often that "correct" is impossible to define, so the overhead of being correct is actually a bug, not a feature.

With all that said, I do wish that we had better software, and that correctness mattered more. I like functional programming, and I think learning it can make any programmer better.
Hard problem suggests that consciousness is magical, in which case it could mess with physics. But if consciousness isn't magic, then hard problem is a problem of understanding, not a problem of physics.

>without actually performing any of the rules?

Chinese room works like human mind, so it should run to be conscious.
Wasn't there a guy who crashed the train he was driving because he'd been radicalised by Q nonsense?
I don’t know about bee venom but concentrating light rays aka burning does the job pretty well
I can't seem to find a source, I heard about a culture (maybe Japanese?) where suicide by train is rare because of the inconvenience it causes others and the shame that brings your family.

When you go through the math on lost productivity due to train delays, you get some interesting conclusions. If a commuter train has 1,000 passengers making an average of $50 per hour who are, a delay is $833 per minute. That means it's more efficient (not going to touch on ethics or legality) to make minimal accommodations for disabled passengers and provide them point-to-point car service, instead.

"Retirement entitlements"? You mean the pensions people have earned, with their labor?

It's not a surprise, to anyone who thinks about it for more than 20 seconds that RN or firefighter is not, in fact, a revenue generating position for the city. But they're generally agreed to be necessary, so why should they not be paid a living wage?

the problem does not seem to be that people confuse the terms, but rather that they don't understand that testing something inside a living being and in a sterile container differs.

Thought I'd share a project I've been working on over the past year that meets at least a subset of the criteria from the article:

https://github.com/brynbellomy/redwood

Redwood is a decentralized database providing a data model that's much like a Redux state tree. One of the fundamental design goals was to better harmonize how data is handled on frontend and backend layers.

It's also:

- syncable/offline-capable, thanks to a CRDT system

- able to serve as a standalone Git backend

- embeddable into Go applications

- immutable, in a blockchain-y sense, due to its append-only ledger

There are some demos in the Github repo:

- A real-time collaborative text editor

- A chat application

- Git integration

- A video streaming application (still improving performance here, but it's functional)

It's pretty alpha still, but feedback and contributions from anyone interested would be very welcome.
Based on my experience with sendgrid it's par for the course.
