I’ll add classic Lenovo to the list, whose base level thinkpad are underspeced and have terrible screens. The fact that apple doesnt perpetually claim their machines are on sale is their last bastion of superiority
One potential solution is to pay people to participate in polls. Pollsters don’t do this because it is prohibitively expensive and cuts into their consulting margins, but it can reduce sampling bias (it can also introduce a bias if not used effectively).
With a decent tech income for Canada (i.e. cheap for Bay Area standards), I can live well, achieve financial independence before 45 and work for a great company with inspiring coworkers.

Could I speed this up by another 5-10 years by moving to California to help monopolists serve ads, suppress competition and lure users into walled gardens? Sure I could. And what's wrong with stoking the world's most overpriced und undersupplied real estate market with another willful participant in the process.

That said, "insane" strikes me as an extreme choice of words for someone forgoing this golden opportunity.
Apple no longer makes general-purpose computers. They only make pretty, locked-down, computerlike appliances.

The margins on general-purpose computers are simply too thin to sustain a $1T company.
Yes, the role of government support in their lives does not take on as much of a visible role.

However I'd also like to comment on a common argument that Blue States/Cities pay for Rural areas. Yes, red states receive a disproportionate amount of federal aid, but that is something everyone benefits from. For example, farm subsidies keep food costs low for everyone in the country. Low income states with a high proportion of people on SNAP & other means-tested government programs mean the social safety net is improving our society as a whole by ensuring fewer people are left behind, which would be an even larger drag on society & the economy. In short, I don't think you can separate funding by state in that way and come to any value judgments based on it because the interwoven nature of our society means we do not stand alone as individual states.
It does seem a bit offensive, like heckling someone performing a religious rite.
Tucker Carlson defended the NYT in 2009, saying the paper had a liberal slant but was careful about the facts. He urged conservative media to pay attention to accuracy. But sadly, after devastating revenue losses from 2010-2016, the NYT decided to become Fox News instead.
Uh, like they did when Obama was president? The same as long as current president isn't encouraging violence? You cutely act like trump doesn't encourage this crap. Nonsense.

Comparing the times to breitbart shows how ignorant you are. Breitbart peddled conspiracy theories (seth rich, dem voter fraud etc) while the times reports... the news.
I suggest looking at states like Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, etc. that only do mail in voting and see how they measure what used to be measured by exit polls.
Apple basically makes their own thing based on the architecture as well.
Remember that the Intel CPUs have shitty thermals. 1.4 GHz with turbo up to 4, etc.

Smacking that with single cores on a 5nm process is probably pretty easy.
We (royal/canandian we) have skipthedishes.com, who have already solved this problem, and were acquired for $110m. :)

It's the difference between "hmm, washing dishes is hard, I will do it better until someone notices and rewards me," and "average person buys less than one dishwasher in their entire lives...but they have to eat every single day...they could skip the dishes altogether!"
Assuming I'm running malware.com, I would make 192-168-0-1.router.malware.com resolve to 192.168.0.1 so the origin matches and I can prod the router as much as I'd like without crossing the origin.
Can someone maybe explain what changes were needed, and if that means more dependence on computers, or less?

Yes, an acquisition would be a trigger. Typicaly there's 1x preference so $800k is paid back to the investors before the pie is split up. The cap for Baremetrics was $10m.

They would end up with more than the initial $800k if they wanted it.
Linux does support many ARM architectures already, and even supports the x86/x64 version of Secure Boot in some configurations. If Apple wants to either allow their Secure Boot to be disabled or to allow end users or Linux distros to somehow get their own keys trusted, I'm sure the port can happen in the coming $smallnum years with enough interest + resources + time. (But not $smallnum months, sadly.)

None of this, of course, is to pretend it's easy.
Anecdotal, but every single person I've spoken to who voted for Trump does believe one or more of these conspiracy theories.
Trump lies every day, and you have ... the ukraine thing.

Gotcha.

You don't convince people to stop telling the truth with your cute little nonsense about turning people pro-trump. On election day, this year, he claimed victory before all the votes were counted. If you support that, you don't support democracy. Nothing else compares.

Every time a right wing tries to say the "media" is unfair I ask for a single example and they always fail. 100% of the time. All just a bunch of whiners IMO.

But sure, please take pride in your support of Trump, who peddled the racist conspiracy theory that Obama isn't a citizen. Good for you champ.
That's some serious doublespeak right there
Haven’t used Facebook for many years but it’s possible your friends delve into politics more than your average user?
Yeah I left this episode out bc the post was turning into a novel. Henry was spooked by a raid on the English baggage train, and the prospect of being caught between the prisoners in the rear and a renewed French attack in front.

As horrifying as the incident is, Keegan at least finds it unlikely that the prisoners were actually massacred wholesale. When you look at the actual mechanics of how such a thing would work, especially with the rest of the French army still on the field and watching, a slaughter of 6000 prisoners becomes really implausible.

For space I won’t quote Keegan’s reasoning, but here’s an excerpt from his conclusion:

> “What seems altogether more likely, therefore, is that Henry’s order, rather than bring about the prisoners’ massacre, was intended by its threat to terrorize them into abject inactivity ... Some would have been killed in the process, and quite deliberately, but we need not reckon their number in thousands, perhaps not even in hundreds.”
There is no way the 737 Max is getting around dependence on some way of automated stabilization. The problem was not the computer codes but the lack of redundant sensors and a way for humans to reliably override it, which the human pilots were trained for.

Blaming it on software is, IMHO, a very wrong lesson to draw from it and factually incorrect.
Are you comparing average doctors or lawyers to the highest-paid and most career-motivated and personal-life-sacrificing programmers? Because other professions can be strategic too. E.g. the median income for patent lawyers or many medical specialties blows IT away. And those professional credentials are still valuable when you're 50 or 60, while your hot programming skills from your school days will have become an outsourced commodity that hiring managers deem worthless.
You're drawing a conclusion that isn't there. The AG is not never said they reviewed Tether's books and it was indeed 1:1
Yeah, and if you had the balls to make something you thought people would like, you sure as hell wouldn't call it a common, lazy argument, because you'd do everything you could—which is very little—to protect yourself from being cannibalized in the software industry.

Depending on where you live rents can be higher or lower. In richer cities apartments might start at ~1200EUR, in other slightly more remote areas (everything is quite close together regardless..) 700EUR might be a more normal price. These are prices in the northwest of Europe, in Spain they are likely lower. In eastern Europe, much lower.

Most people in Europe with "normal", even though highly skilled jobs do not make large wads of money. Freelancing and consulting is where it's at (or Switzerland).
At least it doesn't show ads, yet.
Yeah, I don't get the downvotes either. It's an honest discussion, but too many people upvote/downvote only based on agreement with the point of view. I'm perfectly happy to upvote a comment I disagree with if it is well thought out and improves the discussion in a thoughtful way. Conversely, I'll downvote someone I agree with if their comment is inflammatory.

Anyway, I'm done here, no energy left after going through these threads. I generally agree with your sentiment though, albeit not on everything.
Personally, I think, the merge requests UX in Gitlab ar mediocre compared to GitHub.

The diffs are hard to read because the way render differences. Also it's hard to spot when your merge request has merge conflicts. Could be way more clearly marked.

Also really wish they had similar bot and checks supports like GitHub has.

Ask HN: Do Employee Referrals Work?
Holla Hackers,

I recently shutdown my startup and was on the lookout for a job within product.

Applying online never really worked out for me, my application was usually not even looked at by recruiters.

Came across that employee referrals work great, build my network over linkedin and then asked people for referrals and they worked.

Got 2 competing job offers within 2 weeks.

Want this to work for others without them having to put in the hard work of networking

So, I started this side project (http://www.terahq.com) - Get Employee Referrals to Your Dream Companies.

Do check it out and open for some feedback :)

What does “Biden only” votes mean to you? Is that where you see vote totals jump for Biden, but not for any other candidate? Because your conclusion from that, that it’s obviously fraud, seems incredibly naive. The simple answer is they update candidate totals in chunks.

Further, if someone was committing fraud, they could just add a few votes for other candidates to evade your detection. Your sniff test doesn’t pass my sniff test.
Hey, wait a second. You seem to be implying that they'll just (irresponsibly) throw out machines returned for "other" reasons, but is that true?
Your work is deeply appreciated
Online pollsters mostly "pay" their respondents, and did just as poorly as phone pollsters this go around.

And you access that using the POSIX getpwent(3) family of functions, which glibc wraps to honor nsswitch.conf. accountservice seems superfluous.
MSM is not angry towards trump, they are angry towards a guy who sexual assaults women and who lies every single day. There is a difference. Too bad the snowflakes on the right don't get it.

You ever think there is a possibility trump just lies more? Every think about that crazy idea?
You remind me of Bucky Fuller's trim tab metaphor:

> Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary—the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trim tab.

> It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trim tab.

At the danger of going even more off-topic, 'nazism' is a fairly clearly defined far-right ideology. If you are a scam artist preferring to hang out with nazis because they are easy to manipulate, you are pretty scummy, but not automatically a neo-nazi.
No, because what he said was a factual analysis and the outrage was about its conclusions. I very much agree with his politics.

Speaking of not being allowed to enter a polling place wearing curtain clothes:

"Since Tuesday, she has become known as the “Topless Voter.”

The woman, who ripped off her T-shirt after objections that it was too political to wear inside the Exeter polls, said she has no regrets.

“I said, ‘Well then, can I vote naked?’ He turned to me and said, ‘If you want to.’ So I took off my shirt,” she said.

She said she kept on her mask because removing it would have been “unhealthy.”"

The little that I know about NIFs is that if they crash, they bring down the entire BEAM, so it's pretty risky if not done properly. But I've seen that Rust complements Elixir (via NIFs) very well.
Yes, but the alternative is un-patched security issues. Non-trivial but important.
There is sort of an event loop: the .NET Threadpool. It is used by async by default. It will by default quickly create an number of threads equal to the number of CPU cores, but then slowly increase it beyond that. If you are blocking in a threadpool thread, the work item queue will back up. This is called threadpool starvation.

No, they're calling for investigations into:

- the 5 or 6 contested states where somehow Trump was ahead by hundreds of thousands of votes, then after 2 days of no updates fell behind

- the admitted irregularities of the Dominion e-voting machines in Michigan, including miscounting and a "software update" on the eve of the election.

- the banning of Republican Twitter accounts the week of the election

Even a reporter from Brazil said, "this is just like my country now."

This is fantastic! Good to see you're gaining traction here. I've 2 questions for you:

1/ What's your strategy to standout from the pool of virtual event tools?

2/ Are you keen on being interviewed on https://virtualmojito.com/ - It would be awesome to showcase your stories.

Not being a fan of push polls, for phone polls/opinion polls, I have a simple response. I let them know my charge for focus group participation is $200/hour, 2 hour minimum, plus expenses.

The person on the other end is getting paid, but I’m the one with the desired information. Are these terms acceptable?

The conversation ends quickly.

Push polls really poisoned the well...

Says they have a $250bn mutual fund.

Sorry but even if it's a liability (in this case the deposit that ends up in the money market fund) that's technically...on balance sheet. You can pretend it's in a WMP, or a NCD or whatever alphabet soup you want, but if someone thinks of it as an "Ant deposit"...that's on balance sheet.

They are actually both problems. The fear of being "cancelled" due to poll responses is called the Bradley Effect and definitely does apply to exit polls: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley_effect#Exit_polling
The same reason as everyone else, to run macOS.
Yea I agree, they need to find a new term I guess because it seems pretty clear that this is what's been happening to me at least. I guess my question was more along the lines of who doesn't think this was the issue? Seems so obvious that his conspiracy theory squad won't want to talk to pollsters. Plus energized dems are more willing than usual to talk. The 1% response rate is a crazy number. How could they possibly think they're getting a representative sample if only 1% of people respond and responding is a choice? If there's any correlation between predisposition to respond and preferred candidate they're fucked. And it's hard to believe there wouldn't be.
If Apple actually did that Louis Rossman would be out of a job.

No, not in the sense that the cooling lockout would make him unable to fix MacBooks - he clearly has the industry connections to get whatever tools he needs to break that lockout. Yes, in the sense that many Apple laptops have inadequate cooling. Apple has been dangerously redlining Intel chips for a while now - they even install firmware profiles designed to peg the laptop at 90C+ under load. The last Intel MBA had a fan pointed nowhere near the heatsink, probably because they crammed it into the hypothetical fanless Mac they wanted to make.

Apple actually trying to lock the heatsink to the board would indicate that Apple is actually taking cooling seriously for once and probably is engineering less-fragile hardware, at least in one aspect.

I teach a course titles "Free Speech, Fake News and Foreign Influence in American Democracy." As part of the course I assign my students to watch and discuss a lecture by Jack Balkin at Yale on the modalities of 20th/21st century media. In it Prof. Balkin really hits home the aspect of how we pay for the news in the 21st century under the model of surveillance capitalism. It is a fantastic lecture and well worth the hour or so.

We're going in circles or talking past each other or something. Not to belabor it, but my point was simply that the ability to share the feedback anonymously would, IMHO, lead to said feedback being provided in many more cases than it'd otherwise be. Do you really disagree with that? What specifically are you arguing? Saying "there should be no problem with being direct" is tangential, and offers no plausible path to solving the problem. Sure, there "should" be no problem -- in some ideal fantasy. But here in the real world, there is a great deal of suffering under micromanagment.
My brief understanding of NIFs is they're similar to unsafe in Rust where a bunch of VM guarantees are only held so long as the NIF is well-behaved. I believe there was also some limits on how long a NIF could execute before starving the Erlang scheduler[1].

Well, I guess it's the effect of the wisdom words that finally enlightened you. Ooooh, the wisdom words flowed out of this rich business man, carried his lies and false claims so naturally.

The things are more clear if you knew that few days ago, the CEO of Ant Finance Xiaoming Hu comes out and said "Everybody, even beggars should be given loans. Everyone should be respected" (https://36kr.com/newsflashes/895377271796488).

You know, banks don't want to give loans to beggars, and it's for a very good reason: Because banks don't want to lose any money, money that the banks don't actually own.

Now, Ant Finance claims that they have buzzword BiGdATA to prove somebody's ability to payback, and so they can safely doing their ABS business (http://finance.ifeng.com/c/8189yYOdKfw) without cause bubbles. But, at same time, it is very reasonable for a government to rise concern about it, especially after seeing whatever shit storm has been going on since around 2008.

My point here is, everybody, richman, world leader, scumbag and good people etc, they can all make their speech sound nice and smart and reasonable, you just need 5 episodes of JCS Criminal Psychology to get yourself to understand that, deeply. So don't just listen to what people says, think what the speaker wants.
I think the novel concept here is taking a three month unpaid vacation every year, which I doubt is common or easy in any tech company.

Personally, I would sooner go for a four-day work week, which would probably be an easier sell to most companies. Similarly, I would be fine with a pretty sizable pay cut for the benefit.
