People are flocking to live in cities at an increasing rate. Cities are struggling under the weight of increasing congestion, gentrification, and the growth of eCommerce. And the transport sector contributes the highest single share of greenhouse gas emissions globally.

AI and commercial mathematics in the cloud can help offset a significant portion of these problems and have dedicated our lives to it. We recently raised a pre-seed funding round with investors like BMW and Telstra, have some great customers like Coca-Cola, and are looking for engineers that will help us level-up.

This exciting role will take ownership over the dev of our API and GCP-based backend using technologies such as Java, Spring boot, Maven, REST APIs, NoSQL databases (Google Cloud Firestore, MongoDB), SQL (MySQL), Node.js, Express, Google Cloud Platform (Cloud Functions, App Engine, Computer Engine).

It would also be great if you knew about React.js, Redux, Ant Design (Rect UI), React router, HTML, CSS, Javascript, JSON, XML, JSX, Firebase authorization and authentication.

You'll get an amazing startup experience in a dynamic environment dedicated to growth, exploration, and success. We're a diverse and inclusive bunch and you will get to implement cutting-edge research from PhDs around the world.

We are a team of 4 based in Sydney AU and are open to applicants around the world, preferably in a nearby timezone.

Instead of paying their drivers a fair wage regardless of how much they deliver, they're letting them fight amongst themselves while they laugh all the way to the bank.

And the drivers actually seem to want this, knowing full well the market is oversaturated. If Amazon were to pay drivers a fixed amount, they'd probably end up with much less drivers.

It is definitely challenging to get a sense of culture fit when interviewing, and Covid has forced some rapid changes for teams that may still be adapting to "temporary" work from home six months later. Companies that are focused on culture fit tend to have some declared core values and a mission statement, but these aren't always part of the ethos of the company/team goals or recognition.

Interviewing is a discussion of fit for both you and the employer, so you should feel free to ask questions (and they should allow time for this in the interview process). I would try to determine how committed the interviewers are to adhering to the company's values and mission, or if those are just words for the careers page.

For example: What is your company's mission statement? Does your team have a mission statement or vision? What is your favourite company value, and why? How do your company values factor into decision making or planning? Tell me about a recent decision influenced by your company values? If good values are embedded in the company culture, I would expect some passion and examples of their influence.

My company tries to be strongly aligned to our core values, and we have value-specific interview questions to be transparent about how those values are applied. For example, for our "Be Intellectually Honest" value one of the interview discussion points might be "Can you describe a time your manager took a stance or action that you didn’t agree with, and how you responded to it.". The spirit & intention of this core value is that we have courage in our convictions but work hard to ensure biases or personal beliefs do not get in the way of finding the best solution. This is not a pass to use candor as an excuse to make kind or unproductive remarks.

I think the specific examples you've mentioned (video during meetings, agenda/format for stand-ups) are more about connection and collaborative workflow than culture. I expect companies will probably have a core value that maps to collaboration, so you could ask how that value is reflected in team activities. Daily stand-ups in scrum are normally quick updates rather than social chatter: what did you work on yesterday, what are you working on today, any blockers. Ideally there will be other team activities that encourage more social interaction (share & learn, beverage o' clock, etc).

Personally I would encourage video-on for synchronous stand-ups and sprint planning. as otherwise it is challenging to feel engaged in the discussion. However, if your team isn't doing this you should be able to have an open conversation on why that is the case. Perhaps there is some underlying issue (video is distracting or unreliable for some) that you haven't considered. Great company culture is owned and shaped by the employees, so you should feel empowered to help make your company culture better.

I combine this with https://github.com/nriley/brightness to retrieve the brightness of the main screen, then I use ddcctl to apply it to the external screen.

I set it up in a cron job and that has been running for years now. (the external monitor brightness is not very linear though, so you need to fiddle a big to find the proper/acceptable matching)

By looking at all the data available to untrusted sites (as seen in https://amiunique.org/fp) you can tell that Web is many many years away from being privacy conscious.

Those of us who are tech-literate know better than to create tech like this today, but there's just too much momentum (and shady interests) to hot-swap Web for something else.
Introduction to DSL by Implementing Rake
Good points, and there's a sibling comment which notes some of this as well.

One thing to note is that your ISP is absolutely going to be logging every flow, with (at the very least) the following details:

SRCIP, SRCPORT, TRANSLATED SRCIP, TRANSLATED SRCPORT, DSTIP, DSTPORT

As to how the translations are occurring, I've never actually managed a CGN platform myself, but based on my knowledge of other hardware, I suspect you're closer to the reality than I was, and it's likely that a SRCIP always results in the same TRANSLATED SRCIP, as that can then be installed in hardware trivially and no longer needs to traverse the punt/cpu path to lookup what the translation needs to be.

That does leave the system open to abuse though, depending on how quickly entries age out, as a single customer could easily open up 65k sockets in a very short span of time, effectively DoS'ing any other customers who are using the same TRANSLATED SRCIP if there are no free TRANSLATED SRCPORTs left that their translation can bind to. Then again, the risk of this could be perceived to be low, with a AUP that can handle this if it turns out to be a social rather than technical problem, so it could still be happening in the wild anyway.

This remains a good reminder for me to avoid speculating about topics I haven't thought too deeply about!
Most of this used to be on the curriculum - Home Economics and Craft, Design and Technology have gone out of fashion, but covered the practical things. My school had a vehicle workshop as well as kitchen classrooms. Oh, and a typing pool, too :)

> the university growth cap isn't just an arbitrary creation, it exists to stop more prestigious universities siphoning off a disproportionate share of students and leaving less prestigious ones in deep trouble and this seems likely to happen now.

I've never understood this UK policy personally. In the US there are no such caps and yet less-than-top-tier universities have had no trouble attracting plenty of students. Top tier US universities (e.g. Harvard), with gigantic endowments of tens of billions of dollars in some cases, could easily afford to expand their student bodies two-fold or probably even ten-fold, and yet they don't, despite having no regulations stopping them from doing so. These prestigious universities apparently feel more than enough market pressure not to expand very much, as they feel (rightly or not) that their prestige would take a hit by doing so. I don't understand what the point of creating additional regulatory pressure on top of this would be when e.g. Harvard expanding their student body could easily be a very positive life-changing event for so many students.

This is just a game I made with a friend in the HTML canvas at the start of the year, the goal is to dig up the treasure after finding all the pieces to the map.

I thought I'd give random map generation a chance, since it's something that I hadn't worked on before - same with mobile controls. It uses simplex noise to generate the map.
It would certainly be interesting as an exam question, for example, to compare 2D and 3D for what it would reveal about each, but in the end it's all about choosing an appropriate model for the task at hand. I'd therefore suggest that pitting 2D against 3D is actively choosing to set up some kind of battle that doesn't actually exist in reality - most of the time there is nothing to be added to an analysis by choosing to store data in 3D, and 2D simplifies all parts of the chain i.e. capture, storage, processing, output etc. I'd strongly reject the idea that but for resistance we'd all be in a wonderland of 3D GIS. People in industry just pick the best tool for the task at hand, and that's almost always 2D.
That's assuming the parents have those skills.

> School should start at a reasonable time. In my opinion, 8AM is too early. Kids that live far away have to wake up at 6AM, which is not a normal time judging by when kids wake up during summer break (9-10AM).

They wake up that late because they're staying up late. They should be waking up when the sun tells them to, and go to sleep when their body tells them to, which doesn't happen because they're surrounded by light that messes up their circadian rhythm. This has a huge impact on things like anxiety.

Consequently, there can't be one time that is optimal. Why do we work the hours that we do, year round? It doesn't make sense biologically, it's an artifact of industrialization.

That quote doesn't corroborate your conclusion. I suppose it could be misinterpreted, and a better phrasing would be something like this:

"With children and young people having been out of the classroom for so long, and with many students in this study seeing improvements in mental health and wellbeing during that time, the case to address issues at school weighing on their quality of life is stronger than ever."

> Tests that use random input data are much more difficult to write correctly.

Interestingly, I personally find them easier to write. I actually find classic unit tests hard to write, probably because I am painfully aware of the lack of coverage.

While with property-based testing, I start from the assumption I have on what the code should do. Then the test basically verifies this assumption on random inputs.

Doing unit test with the given input seems to me backwards - it's like a downgrade, because I always start from what kind of assumption I have and based on this I choose the input. And why not encode the assumption, when you already have it in your mind anyway?
Sorry for the late rely. Yup, that's pretty much it. Just an image and a description and the name of the artists.

My point was that parks can be truly good for the community. If that is not true for some parks in some parts of America, that seems more like a local problem to be fixed, rather than an issue with parks in general.

In case you're not aware, there's plenty of people in the US who dislike the "all concrete walls" look of suburbia and instead would prefer more communal living areas - even within big cities - to be modeled after Italy or Singapore.

So it makes a lot of sense to look at Singapore, even if you don't travel there yourself, for inspiration on how to combine skyscrapers and nature to make residents happy.

I appreciate your reply but it blows my mind that the idea of better and worse is routinely rejected. I have to consider that.

This line of thought is however used elsewhere by scammers ("the person bought it at that price so they must like it"), free market absolutists ("the market - the sum of supposedly infallible decisions - made me rich and made you poor") and leads to people playing World of Warcraft 24/7 ("it is my choice, how can you argue that"). Anecdotally I have received good advice from people and when I followed it, it changed things to the better.

The value of a newspaper depends on how many I have. If I have none, I want one, but probably not two. If I printed a million, I just want to sell them (and amortize what I paid the staff).
It's definitely not in 79.0.5 (build #2015758619), which is the version I have from the Play store. (Google says it's the most up-to-date version.)
Policing content based on morals makes no sense. There is no arbiter of morals so whatever policing there will be is going to be highly subjective. You police content because your business is generating publicity for your customers and thereby you are endorsing and supporting your customers and which also means directly helping their cause. If Patreon makes "Nazis" famous then Patreon's reputation will reflect that. Of course the owners of Patreon don't want their platform to be associated with Nazis whether that is because it is bad for business, the owners don't like nazis, the payment provider has decided to cut off Nazis or any other reason. What it certainly doesn't have to do with is "morals".

When someone is talking about morals in the way you did then they are usually talking about their own morals.

>"I hope they succeed, and I personally hope that companies that have morals that I think are worse than theirs fail."

This is a good example of you talking about your own morals. There is no objective criteria for "worse morals". The only way you can make a statement about morals being worse is from your own viewpoint.

The worst thing about your comment is that you are implying that your own morals are the only good ones.

>EDIT: Judging a company by their actions is a valid thing to do. It's remarkable to me that this is controversial.

The problem is not Patreon in this case. You are the problem.
> The cost is low for the student but it's pretty high for the taxpayers.

Well, not really. In France for example, the cost per student per year looks like the following:

* Classe preparatoire (math & physic 2 years course to prepare ranked for Engineering schools): ~15K euros per student per year

* Engineering Schools: 10 to 25K depending on the specialty, with a few prestigious schools (Centrale Paris, Polytechnique, Mines de Paris, etc) in the 30 to 60K bracket.

* Literacy student in university: 5 to 7K

* Math or Physic student in university: 10 to 15K

* Business School: 15 to 20K

However, keep in mind this figures don't include housing.

Apart from Business schools and less prestigious engineering schools, most of these are public schools with low tuition fees for students (even if these are slowly increasing, Centrale Paris raised them to 3.5K recently for example).

Also, cost apart, having public schools with low/no tuition fees helps keeping open opportunities for everybody, and mitigate social and economic aspects.

It reduces the "my parents don't have the money to allow me to go through university" or "do I really want I 200K lawn from the start of my professional life?" aspects.

It's just better at giving more equal opportunities to every students, minimizing somewhat factors that are outside of their control like the socioeconomic background of their parents.

Don't get me wrong, it's far from perfect and these factors still play an important role, but at least it's an effort in the right direction.
Reminds me of an old Abbot and Costello routine. They were interviewing a guest.

Abbott: You mean there used to be horses and jackasses in here?

Guest: Yep. Ain't changed much.
It's not about passing the test though, it's about sorting out who gets to go to university and who doesn't.

If the training of pilots one year was compromised so none of them could certified, we'd go a year without certifying any new pilots. We'd cope somehow. Universities can't go a year without any new students though, that's just not a reasonable outcome.

On the face of it basing grades on predicted outcomes and adjusting for the historical record of specific schools to overestimate those predictions seems to be a pragmatic approach.
The idea of mandatory education is to guarantee that you're provided basic skills to have a chance to survive a thrive in society regardless of your environment.

It seems like a classic political no-win situation: if you go with an algorithm then anyone who gets a lower than predicted grade is going to complain (and of course has every right to, as any algorithm is likely to unfairly disadvantage some section of the population). If you give everyone their predicted grades then you're accepting massive grade inflation which makes the grades far less useful as a predictor of a student's ability which then means lots of problems further down the line.

> Kids should be taught practical life skills over random trivia.

This is parenting vs schooling, ignoring the fact that many schools are really glorifed babysitting services.

And more importantly, history isn't "random trivia". While the merits of a degree in history may be debatable, if the majority of the UK had a passable knowledge in why the EU exists, and what the UK did to become an empire, the attitude towards integration with the EU would likely be very different.

> PE in my school didn't teach any theory, which is just stupid looking back.

PE is the bare minimum amount of exercise and movement a child could have without being considered "entirely sedantry". For many kids it's the _only_ exercise they get.
