Keenious | DevOps Engineer - Full Stack Engineer - Institutional Sales & Relationship Manager | Full Time - REMOTE | Europe | https://keenious.com

At Keenious we are helping students and researchers around the world with their important work by finding relevant research to what they are working on. We do this by analyzing the users' document with self-developed advanced machine learning algorithms and then display a list of highly relevant research articles right next to their document.

We are launching Keenious commercially in the next few months, and we're selling to large university institutions. Therefore we are now expanding our fully remote team from 6 to 9 and are actively recruiting and hiring for three key remote positions in Europe:

- DevOps Engineer - Platform Architect: You will be working on architecting, managing, and making sure our Kubernetes run distributed system can scale to potentially millions of users. You will be the person that manages and connects up all the different parts, from our front-end to our machine learning model services, effectively, securely, and with high scaleability. https://keenious.talentlyft.com/o/jSz

- Full Stack Engineer - Front-end & UX Passionate: You will be working directly on the application itself, both on the front-end and the back-end. We are specifically looking for someone that has a passion for a good UX design, and that likes developing intuitive and clean interfaces, but also someone that can get their hands dirty on our NodeJS back-end when needed. https://keenious.talentlyft.com/o/jSx

- Institutional Sales & Relationship Manager - High-Value University Sales: You will be working on making sure that we get our product in the hands of students and researchers all over the world. We're looking for someone that has experience in sales but wants to work on selling an innovative product to large businesses ($100K+ deals). https://keenious.talentlyft.com/o/jSA

Our stack: TypeScript, React, Redux, NodeJS, CircleCI, Azure, Python, Docker, Kubernetes, ElasticSearch, Apache Airflow

At Keenious we are at the starting point of building our team and we believe gender diversity and inclusion are really important in creating a strong team built for the future. Because of that we heavily encourage female applicants!

Go to https://keenious.talentlyft.com/ for more information. This is a great opportunity if you want to have an impact on an AI product that is helping with education and research.
You can trick Audacity into opening images and then apply audio filters to them
Move to paid accounts like iCloud email or fastmail, protonmail for critical use cases. iCloud email is free for all ios users and fastmail and protonmail cost pennies per day. Primary email has become something akin to having a phone number these days. Lots of consumer services use email for authorization.
From what I can tell, it just uses standard protocols like IMAP (at least, it did when I moved from a non-gmail provider to it).
You're running into the same problem, just from a different angle.

With the exception of Atom, all recent Intel designs have been a RISC core with a CISC decoder slapped on top. Everything else being equal, the simpler decoder will create a smaller chip. Because the decoder is always running all-out, the simpler decoder will also use less power.

x86 instructions are multi-length from 1 to 15 bytes. The cost to slice that up is always going to be bigger than fixed-length instructions. RISC-V has variable length in theory, but in practice, compact instructions extend into 32-bit instructions with some bits added which is important for decode cache while longer instructions are ignored.

Because there's a maximum tolerable decode latency of a very few cycles and latency increases with cache size, decode cache size has a definite cap. x86 has a couple orders of magnitude more potential instructions than RISC-V. More instructions translates into a lower hit rate for the same size cache barring any heuristics (more on that below).

Matching variable-length arrays to an unknown set of arrays in cache is inherently a hard problem. Every solution has tradeoffs and the resulting heuristics are bad for computing (see below). In contrast, searching for a match on a fixed 32-bit array has much more simple general solutions that don't require tradeoffs.

C and CPU designs feed off each other. Let's say there are instructions X and Y which can do equivalent things. x86 engineers played around with both and got a lucky insight into how to make X a bit faster. Compiler writers jump on it and start using the faster solution. x86 engineers now all but stop looking to improve Y and spend their time tinkering with X instead. Compilers now focus even more heavily around not just X, but any instructions more closely associated with X.

In that entire (true) story, nobody gave a second thought to whether the final result of Y would have been faster overall if not for the lucky break with X. If x86 developers were actually free to choose whichever instructions they wanted, x86 decode would be much, much slower than it appears to be. This self limitation argues that perhaps a more RISC-like ISA is inevitable.

A new ISA where everything is used would definitely have complexity, transistor, and power disadvantages vs a new ISA that didn't make that mistake.
Google has been destroying their own culture and user experience little by little in order to make more money the following quarter for quite a while now.

So I don't know about it "needing" more money, but they certainly seem willing to do whatever it takes and cross whatever line to make more money every quarter.
Someone Registered My Name as a Domain Name: What Are My Options?
A lot of EU countries have explicit copyright exceptions for personal copies though due to the storage tax, so youtube-dl is legal in those countries anyways.
Agreed, this is likely how this happened:

1. At a growing startup, nobody is incentivized to implement the necessary-but-not-initially-related-to-growth features, like a sane account closure and unsubscribe process.

2. This, the easiest path forward was essentially "we'll turn your private account into a free account, where everything is public" because implementing something where there would be a deletion or export option in the unsubscribe flow would take more work, and nobody is getting bonused on that.
For the numbers in that pic, it would be every 2-ish, which makes me wonder if the GP just flipped a reciprocal somewhere.

As the title is a direct quote - a statement of fact - it could hardly be less incendary.

Furthermore, it says that the presentations will become public, so presumably this was a paid subscription. I imagine this poison-pill was discreetly mentioned in the EULA, and maybe you think that makes it all OK, but then I wonder why anyone thinking that would regard its tweeting as incendiary.

Maybe it doesn't happen every night, but only some nights. Say when everyone comes home from thanksgiving with empty batteries.
It's not that nobody cares; they're just less important. Obvious example is analytics. It helps Netflix deliver a better experience to their users, (video watchers and product placement advertisers -- whoever) but it isn't mission critical to making sure users can watch their content. If you miss some log data, that's not a huge deal. That doesn't mean you want to stop logging.

Some of the things they mentioned were also user impacting, like not being able to select a video's language, but less critical. You obviously still want that feature, but it's less important than being able to watch at all.

I use my Android (Redmi Note 8 Pro) primary cam (720p I think) using Droidcam and it works like a charm on Linux.

I also tried gPhoto2/ffmpeg and virtual cam driver with Nikon D5200 (USB) on Linux but I prefer the Redmi since I do not have a decent low light lens for my DSLR.

I am not sure that this is a helpful definition.

There are many opinions that could be described as "paranoid delusion" by its opponents but still have a high probability to be true.

For example many politics from Eastern Europe tried to warn their Western colleagues (before 2008) that Russia is not up for good relations with EU. This was labeled as Russophobia i.e. paranoid delusion.

Trying to understand global politics is a very difficult task and there are probably many false beliefs even on highest level.

It is also up to interpretation.
Do it. I have a cheap Linux server (non pi) running in my home, and it's immeasurably useful. It functions as a combination of a backup server (with an attached 8tb drive), Plex server (another 2 Tb media drive), PiHole host and MITmproxy etc.

Today I figured that I need to setup periodic email backups from my Gmail, and guess where that cron is going! I use Windows + WSL as my home machine so having a pure Linux machine locally SSHable is a godsend.

I though of getting a Pi but I'm just doing too much with the server.

Then what you do is set up some sort of monetary charge, to verify that the person you are dealing with is real. Someone willing to pay for support is highly likely to be an actual customer, not a fraudster; and you can even have their local bank or notary to verify their identity, if you are worried about identity theft.

This is a problem that is largely solved at government scale, which is what Google is now, and there's no reason not to take advantage of existing infrastructure to do so.
That's not the issue here though. The issue is that people who _don't_ do those things still get permabanned by Google with zero recourse.

When you pay for something like Fastmail, you get a human within hours to help solve the problem.
It was actually built for streetcars.
Used to use Mesos at my last job. It was ok, but the tool ecosystem around it just didn't stay up to date with the needs of the industry. Secrets, Ingress, Cron type problems were difficult to manage and we had to write some in-house stuff to handle it. The zookeeper backend was a pain in the ass of course. Upgrades and recovery from master failures sucked.

I'm not saying Kube is the easiest thing in the world, but in OSS DevOps what you need is an industry standard with a good tool ecosystem. And Kube has that.
Remember that now we are talking about Microsoft, Github belongs to Microsoft.

It is about immunity, just not about the individual. It means that if the virus spreads to a non-immune individual from the outside the spread inside the herd will eventually stop (but we don't know when). It can still reach an arbitrary number of non-immune individuals, but given infinite time and an infinite herd, it will eventually stop.

Low level zero friction school physics analogy: think of a ball rolling onto an inclined plane. If the plane is angled upwards the ball will slow down and eventually stop rolling further upwards, if the plane is angled downwards it will just continue accelerating forever. But in the upwards case no place on the plane is truly safe from getting reached by the ball, because speed and angle is not specified. Herd immunity means that the slope is upwards, but the velocity would still be an open-ended random distribution.

A more accurate model for virus spread would replace momentum with dice rolls and slope with success thresholds, but that's just more difficult to imagine (unless your biography contains a phase of obsessing over p&p rpg rules).
I believe a CM4 module could fit in the same space. They were probably developed in parallel, so they couldn't afford to gate the Pi 400 on the CM4 timelines.

Also, don't under estimate the performance of future SD cards.

A more extreme example of false beliefs causing great harm is the Holocaust that was caused by Nazis believing the Jews are part of a conspiracy to undermine Germany and were the cause of Germany's defeat in WW1.

False beliefs can cause a lot of harm to a lot of people in both personal level (not vaccinating your kids) and to the larger societal level.
This is a ghastly and inhumane comparison.

> You can't host something publicly, available via common, general purpose technology and then claim protection when someone uses this general purpose technology to obtain it.

I'm not saying this is wrong, but how do you know?

That is, do you claim to have a grounded understanding of the law? (Perhaps as a lawyer, or a layperson who's studied this in some depth.) Or are you simply saying that in your opinion the law should consider youtube-dl's decryption acceptable by this reasoning? Or something else?

(I'm not even asking for citations here, if it's the first thing.)

I'm 58 and I've lost over 30 lbs (180 - 149) in the last 5 months. I've used basically the same technique you describe. I've tracked every calorie and learned how to prepare mostly plant-based (raw, whole food) meals. However, I exercised more than you describe. I like to walk so I've been walking 25-40 miles/week. When I walk I can eat more and stay within my calorie deficit goal It became a virtuous motivational feedback loop for me. The other benefit of the exercise is that I haven't seen any indication of muscle or strength loss while losing the fat.
> Whoever at Prezi manages this UI should definitely clean it up to actually say that, but the behavior itself doesn’t seem crazy to me.

IMO they ought to change it from a single checkbox to a pair of radio buttons, and give something along the following as options:

“You are about to cancel your subscription. However, you have x private presentations in your account. Private presentations are not available without a paid subscription. How would you like to handle this?”

(_) Delete all x of my private presentations

(_) Make all x of my private presentations public

And then have a button or link as well where you can go if you wish to review your private presentations in order to delete any of them prior to making the remainder public.

Also, in the listing of private presentations, provide a button or link that allows you to download a copy of each of them before you delete them.

Except that you already agreed to this behaviour when you signed up.

The wording needs to be changed to say:

"Remember, if you cancel, your content will become public - delete any presentations you want don't want public before cancelling'.

The tick box then becomes 'I understand - I have deleted any private content'.

It's not a good environmental policy on balance. It results in only about a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions. It does substantially reduce air pollution compared to gasoline. But we have to devote large amounts of land usage to it, destroying natural habitats, and we pollute water with runoff.

On balance, I would rather emit the CO2, until we can convert transportation fleets to electricity.
Giving free money to people is always popular.

In this case the money is enough to effectively get a free e-bike or e-scooter, so of course people who can will use it. They may still buy a car as well, actually, since nothing prevent them from doing just that.
