There seems to be a taxation agreement between Canada and India -

https://www.treaty-accord.gc.ca/text-texte.aspx?lang=eng&id=...

Read article 23 - the elimination of double taxation

Without getting too specific - it seems pretty standard where you would get credit in one country against the other

I don't know the specifics of the difference between being a contractor vs employee in Canada or the implications of that ( in the US they are very distinct ).
My best guess however based on the circumstances is that your (ex)-employer withholds tax for the Canadian government and then you would still declare that income on your Indian tax return and claim the credits for the taxes paid in Canada.

It also seems based on some googling that if you are outside India for 245 days of the year you are non resident - so you might not have to declare your total gross for the year and only the income which is considered based in India.

Again this is just a guess based on past experiences of mine with a lot of assumptions based on 2 very different countries and is most definitely not legal advice - I'd read the treaty thoroughly and try to find an expert in international tax compliance for India & Canada.

Also be extra careful about making sure you get this right - In the US for example when non resident one has to give the US company a W8-BEN (individual) or W8-BEN-E (company) form for them to file the taxes correctly at the end of year and to not withhold tax from you when they pay you when availing of a treaty.

My reference to type of work really refers to what nation states consider work vs product but also some types of work are also exempt from tax where people are at sea or working at an embassy etc

While on the surface software engineering remote from India seems like something outside the scope of Canadian tax law ( if you are non resident to Canada), the government might not look at it that way - is it then considered a product you are selling into Canada and taxable that way? - wording on invoices could have tax implications as a result - so be careful.

Lastly if this is a short term thing then it probably makes sense as an individual - but if this is going to be a long term arrangement you should spend time investigating the pros/cons of creating a company vs being an individual to optimize your return

And Good Luck :)
> Beyond being an overzealous fan of the USA (ironically on the grounds that it forces plurality as opposed to radicalism even though recent politics is slowly eroding this arguments).

I think her approval of the US had more to do with our substantial zionist political base/control. She was a major zionist player after all. If china or russia had a major zionist political base, she would have been raving about them.

As I mentioned, she was a zionist. People who think they are part of a special chosen group better than everyone else, whether it is zionists, nazis, kkk, etc tend to be racists.

Also, as I understand it (not a lawyer, just listening to law students), this filing’s purpose is to establish a prima-facia case. There aren’t really many ‘arguments’ as to why Section 2 of the USC 15 has been violated, this is just trying to convince a judge to hear the case.

I’d wait until the judge agrees to hear the case and cases are cited to really make any predictions. The cited case law will set the first odds. It feels too early to cast lots.
170k is his "final count"; 220k is the current running total. There's plenty of time for an order of magnitude of wrongness.
The main point of this article has nothing to do with the technical details of power transportation and everything to do with politics and corruption of our academic/research institutions. It’s amazing how an anti-fact leader can have such corrupting influence on institutions that are building tomorrow’s leaders.

> Doesn't linux do shared-read-only mapping of pages on read(2) and only copy if you modify?

No, I don't think that's how it works for the plain read() system call. (The kernel will have its own page cache / buffer cache entries that would be the same for both processes, but read() can't map those directly, it has to make a copy.) Though it should work the way you describe if multiple processes mmap the same file, in which case the page cache pages are exactly the same pages that are mapped by the processes.

However, if you use read() to copy data into a buffer and then fork() the process, I believe the child process should end up with a copy of the buffer that is backed by the same physical pages with copy-on-write semantics.
Yes, it is truly scary. A large portion of them are in more rural areas that have been decimated. Also, IIRC states pay money to trainers/consultants that help people get on the national disability programs.

> I could try some job boards to see which companies are out there. But what would I filter on? I know a lot of programming languages but am not set on having to work in a specific one. How can I tell if I’ll hit it off with the team? I’m applying via a job board to a position I know next to nothing about — will anyone even respond?

Man I really can't stand job boards. I feel like the only way to make a good job board would have to aggressively vet companies posting jobs, which ofc would lead to it being very barren.
This looks incredible! Well done! I get that it’s mainly aimed at internal tools and dashboards, but what kind of load can something like this handle? Could I conceivably use it for something customer facing? What about logins and security? Awesome work!
When he said "I am expecting it to end up under 170,000 or maybe 175,000.", if he had added "plus or minus 1.5M" that would have been clearer.

Edit: In other words, when his prediction is given with an implied error of +/- 5000, that speaks to a level of confidence that as you point out, anybody familiar with power law processes would not dare to give.

Being hired from my experience hasn't been a crabshoot. Everywhere I've been hired it's been a success.

Well, it would be the same as single-phase power (to the device) if the devices were not connected to the neutral. The oven actually takes one of the phases (along with the neutral), and uses it to power some accessories.
Ah yes, a claim that can never be disproven, because any evidence produced would just show the company is not an example covered by the claim.

But I do know some companies who have a competitive advantage in the tech market, and their hiring is not great.
True, and because the blockchain is public, the community would see the tokens accumulating.

When there is high demand, individuals in the community will naturally tend to tighten the supply on the markets. Typically, they will sell fewer and fewer tokens as the price gets higher.

This is because most community members really believe in the project and they believe that fiat is worthless, so they usually only sell just enough to fund a modest lifestyle. They know that the token is the most valuable asset in this economy. They know that once they sell it, they can't get it back.
Oh, good to know, thanks. Are you running relatively complete crawls of larger sites at similar rates to Googlebot?

I've definitely seen my share of robots.txt that give special permission to Googlebot, but maybe my corner of the web was unusually aggressive toward crawlers.
> Yes, you will know, because you will know if the neutrino's speed relative to you has decreased or not. If it has, it's possible to bring it to rest relative to you. If it hasn't, it's not. See above.

I don't think this quite works because of relativistic addition of velocities. Naively, it seems to. For example, if the object was travelling at 0.999999c relative to you (appears to be 1.0c according to your limited instruments), then you accelerate to 0.50c in its direction, you'd see its speed reduce to 0.50c (same 2s.f. instrument), which would clearly prove it's not massless. But velocities don't add like that relativistically and I think you'd still see it as travelling at 1.0c because it only decreased a tiny amount, below what you instrument can detect. If you use a more precise instrument or a faster rocket, you might measure it as 1.00000c but then you still won't know if it's exactly c or a smidgen less.

Maybe I've got my relativistic velocity addition wrong? But it still looks like the same measurement problem as trying to prove a classical object has a speed of exactly 0, which can't be done no matter how accurate our instruments are.

It shouldn't be. From my experience, the financial cost that comes from increasing the number of people you fire after a few weeks is less than what companies spend furiously guarding against making a bad hire.

AV1 cannot come soon enough. My family is stuck on DSL, nothing they can do. 10 megabits down is annoying, but the 700 kbps upload is worthless. I can't do any video chat. But AV1 encode is relatively fast for low resolution.

Blockchain was never intended to be a solution to several things, it was designed to be a solution to one thing and do it well. Scammers seized the oportunity to market blockchain as a solution to all your problems to profit themselves and a lot of people were fooled.
I've flagged the article for such a reason.
I have, personally, interviewed a senior software engineer candidate, claiming 8+ year of experience coding, who could not write a simple 5-minute exercise, in any language of his choosing. It wasn't FizzBuzz exactly, but if I'd thought to ask FizzBuzz, he'd have busted that as well.

"Write a function that takes a set of numbers [array, list, or equivalent] and returns the average."

Couldn't even get started.

I was the third interviewer. He'd BSed his way past the phone screen and two others and I caught a whiff of "Johnny can't code" and decided to check by asking him one of our new college grad questions.

There have been many more who bombed terribly in a manner that leaves me doubting whether they could solve FizzBuzz given an hour.

I don't doubt your beliefs, but I am surprised that you've not found any candidates who cannot possibly code at all. That probably speaks well to whatever upstream filtering process your firm is using (it would be ironic if it was "coding FizzBuzz using this online coding platform").
thanks for the shoutout!

> One of the value props was the inability to reset and resell if it were lost or stolen.

It's sure one of those nice to have features, but there's no good reason why it has to be mandatory like it is. All in all, having a device purposefully retain some information when you factory reset it is user-hostile.

The "lost or stolen" argument also hardly holds for desktop computers like Mac Pro or Mac Mini or iMac, yet they still have T2s in them.

How do we know they're travelling at exactly c? That's my concern. Last I heard, a couple of decades ago, physicists would occasionally measure a new maximum possible rest-mass for photons. It would be very tiny, of course, but they couldn't say it's exactly zero.

> because after two years C++ had something like 5x the market penetration Rust has after ten

C++ is highly backwards compatible to C to the degree that it's almost (but not quite) a superset. Of course it's quite easy to start creating cpp files. Also C++'s benefits were quickly realizable while for Rust's safety benefits to play out, you need to have replaced significant portions of highly risky components (e.g. those that parse user data, have a history of bugs, etc). Adding Rust to an existing C++ codebase is much harder than adding C++ to an existing C codebase.

Also do you have a link for your claim? I'm interested in reading on the early rise of C++.
You mention the challenge with connecting out-of-phase grids. This is I believe why the proposed interconnects are high-voltage DC, as mentioned in the article. Power will be loaded in from one AC system, transported, and then offloaded as AC properly synchronized to the recipient grid.

China (enter the room): Agreed.
It’s not one or the other, especially if there’s intent. Yes punish, but don’t scapegoat the whole systemic problems on the individual and then think you solved the problem by creating a ‘deterrence’ to others. Life doesn’t work that way. Imagine if every serious crime prompted a review and action to stop it ever happening again - imagine how much further along we’d be to a more just society.
The War on Big Tech
Well at that point we can revisit the discussion. Until then there's no real issue with the prediction.
Yes, but they said ambient temperature, and I assumed that to mean the temperature inside the garage (I grew up with a detached garage that was not insulated, it got very hot in the summer, especially when it's over 100F outside, so this doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility to me). It would be significantly harder to disperse heat from the CPU and GPU in that environment.
While most people think this "knowledge" should be organized and even shared, I strongly disagree. For context, I have worked in large research labs, ML engineering organizations and startups and have encountered many people across the engineer and research spectrum.

These intuitions are often wrong and arise due to the lack of vocabulary in correctly describing the mechanisms that occur.

From a researcher's standpoint, learning these is counterproductive if the goal is to study and understand the underlying mechanisms from first principles.

From a beginner engineer perspective, these intuitions may be effective "functional truths" but there's the danger of perceiving these handwavy intuitions as truths. This leads to inflexibility in light of empirical evidence that contradicts these intuitions and even worse - not debugging enough since the pattern seems to match roughly the intuition. The latter results in flawed institutional knowledge being accrued over time. An engineer might say: "Engineer X tried Y and it didn't work because of ML intuition Z, since this is a related problem, we should not prioritize Y due to the precedent."

I think its much better for a beginner engineer to learn the methods from first principles and develop an appreciation for them. They can then learn the distinction between what's true and the intuitive language people use to describe a phenomenon they don't completely understand but can pattern match to. This will help them avoid making the mistakes that people who rely on this intuitive language too much, mistaking it for ML theory.

> If “contact discovery” isn’t part of the core offering, it certainly makes a great attempt to look like it is.

You are looking at only a single implementation here. The point is that this is a set of federated protocols that has been specifically designed to provide freedom of implementation in this regard.

> But if we can’t agree that the flow recommended on the website is the one that the vast majority of users are going to follow, there’s not much room for a productive discussion.

I never claimed otherwise? We seem to be talking past each other.

You say you followed the top recommendation provided to you and that the end result was essentially equivalent to Signal. Since you appear to approve of how Signal handles things, that hardly seems like a complaint to me?

The key difference, of course, is that for Signal that's the only option. If the central authority changes it tomorrow, then tough. Matrix, on the other hand, provides you the freedom to select (or build, or patch, or whatever) a client that meets your needs. It's providing a superset of what Signal is offering.

That's the exactly the thing - they are, indeed, chasing me off. When this Mac dies, I'll be replacing it with something running Debian.

It is too bad - the Mac hit this sweet-spot where it was pretty much my perfect machine for several years - a kickass Unix workstation in a decently built laptop, with a decent GUI, with access to consumer apps, too. It was great while it lasted.

Thing is, this is a reasonable thing for Apple to do. Back when they weren't enormous, it made sense for them to at least make token gestures to the Unix-weenie/developer market - we threw a lot of money at them and made them hip when they were down and out. Now we're in rounding-error territory, and that we got what we wanted for a while was sort of a happy accident, anyway. Building developer dream-machines was never Apple's thing.

I bought my first Mac in 1991, and this one will last a while longer. Can't really complain too much about 30 years of decent-to-awesome tools.

To be fair you wouldn't just expose your server directly nowadays, you'd have them in a container orchestrator like k8s that would have a liveness probe (and container usage tracking) that would appropriately scale/restart pods as to not have the system going down, together with load balancers and DDoS protection systems like AWS Shield to detect such attempts.

And of course, you can also use a more low latency high availability oriented language handling the frontend (like Elixir, which will have trouble doing the heavy data oriented stuff Julia can), with Julia as a microservice to handle the actual backend logic and analytics, which is probably the setup I'd go for (using 2 high level lispy-languages with very different qualities, each doing what it does best).
