I’m not sure there is a good reason to require web authors to type an extra 5 character prefix every time they want to attach data to an element. This is supported by the fact that browsers can figure this out.

Not sure, but the article does indicate they're working on reducing energy requirements with a view to making it lunar-feasible.

Engineers will tinker with the process by adjusting the electrical current and reagents to boost the amount of oxygen while trying to reduce the temperature needed to produce it. This will help bring down the energy required, which is already at a premium on the Moon.

Whether resources are material or not isn’t relevant. The attention, care, kindness, compassion that a person has to offer others is a resource (and a finite one at that). The basis of the claim is that these entities are viewing other people as nothing more than what those people have to offer them. If you prescribe to the doctrine of psychological egoism, then that is how every single person views every single relationship they have (intentionally or otherwise).

I would say that’s a rather cynical way to view the world (others would say it’s just a factual perspective). But if you view this scenario from that perspective, there’s no logical reason that you shouldn’t also view the relationships you have with your own spouse/parents/children/friends... the same way.

If we take the articles claims at face value, what we know is:

* There was an existing compliance department.

* It had several remote team members.

* The company opened a compliance office in PDX.

* The company required Black team members to relocate to PDX or apply for new jobs.

* The company allowed a non-Black team member to remain in PHL and work out of the NYC office.

* Multiple sources claimed that the PHL employee was allowed to continue working remotely.

* The stated reason for demanding the relocation of the Black team members was to have the whole compliance team working from one place, a goal that obviously wasn't served by having someone else working out of PHL and NYC.

Maybe the sources in this article are lying (of course, you can rebut any claim that way), but apart from that, I'm not sure how this complaint is easily knocked down.
It's amazing how much knowledge is being lost with the advent of container revolutions and orchestrator Os'es. Cgroups is _still_ opt in not opt out...though those who never have worked in HPC on bare metal with parallel libraries and approaches for cpu like openmp are loudly complaining about control groups that don't control or provide consistent view of userland like there isn't a host system underneath. It's like this (https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/CPU-Affin...) wasn't the way things were done (and still are to this day) in everything but the container world. I know it's hard to grasp but not everyone is containerizing everything.
It's absolutely infuriating that no one is being prosecuted over this.

> They can't match parentheses, can't make code that runs at all, don't know the difference between a string and an int, can't distinguish function return from printing.

You are commingling "Don't understand programming" with "Don't understand Python here. It's pretty clear that an experienced developer is going to understand parenthesis matching. But regardless of how many years of experience you have in Javascript, the first time you see a Python list comprehension you are likely to scratch your head for a bit. Python lambdas are also quite alien if you aren't familiar with them.

FWIW, I was a professional developer for 10+ years before I knew learned Big O notation. I know a fair number of junior and even senior developers who don't know Big O notation even now. I knew how to avoid Big O type problems long before I knew the terminology.
From the article:

>Ms. Sawyerr said she had talked with four other Black employees about bringing a discrimination lawsuit against Coinbase, but the others backed out after being offered hefty severance payments in exchange for confidentiality agreements.

It never went to court because almost everyone involved was incentivized for it to not end up in court. Going to court is often a difficult, expensive, and likely damaging path to pursue for victims of a variety of crimes. The lack of a court case has nothing to do with the amount of evidence or the truthfulness of the accusations here.

>For the law, intent is of utmost importance. For (social) media, just "circumstantial evidence" of exhibiting patterns of discrimination is enough to act. It is not enough to act, if you are a decent person.

Once again, you are factually wrong with this comment. People can be thrown in jail based purely on an overwhelming amount of circumstantial evidence and companies can be punished for discriminatory behavior even if there is documented proof that there was no intent to discriminate.
> What the hell does that even mean ?

> double the speed of reference counting

The simplest low latency system memory making atomics faster in some contexts (faster cache write back/fetch).

Then atomic operations (using Aquire/Release) are theoretically faster on ARM due to the weak memory ordering (I'm not sure if this does help for translated x86 code).

Potentially other reasons can include:

- maybe optimized fetch add/sub instructions (or more precise the ARM instructions used by fetch add/sub functions in higher level languages)

- maybe tweaks to the coherence protocol

- maybe specialized optimizations in the pipelineing

All in all it means Apple focused on making sure fetch add/sub are fast (most likely as this is what is normally used for Rc).

I think it says refcounting twice faster for swift on M1 compared to swift on x86.

It is possible because if you don’t have TSO(total store order), you can employ atomic operations without waiting/flushing previous items in the CPU’s store buffer
> Your character is at stake here and again, a sleezy ghosting for years is almost certainly worse I assume for most people that a phone call, email, whatever to tell someone you unfortunately just can’t afford to pay them right now but will as soon as you can. That’s the biggest issue here.

Why would you assume for there to be no proper conclusion? It is not like running away from the truth helps anyone. Is it not obvious that anyone would inform of payment delays, non-payment against dissatisfactory services, etc? What’s there to gain by not informing? It is not like these things don’t happen, because they do happen. Often more times than you did like.

I would like to take this claim at face value and just assume it to be true that a payment was not made. If its a troll, it would be a really sad one. Going forward under this assumption, the freelancer certainly thinks that he/she should have got paid for the services delivered. This is where a communication gap could exist. I highly doubt we have not properly closed an engagement. It is more likely it was closed against the interest of the freelancer, and the freelancer won’t take NO for an answer, and is now making a claim under an incorrect pretex.

What would you advise as the best course of action in such a scenario?

100% agree. I saw some of the shit posted about this on Cryptocurrency forums when Coinbase posted their weird tirade about wanting to be "neutral and apolitical" with regards to social justice and a few days ago about how everything is a lie as they tried to pre-empt this article.

It all feels of gaslighting and has a shit ton of people buying into it.

At the end of the day, the best thing for Coinbase employees to do is to jump ship to a competitor (I for one, am happy to give a referral to any Coinbase employee who is leaving due to all this) - but absolutely vile that they would try to buy-out all POC in the company.
> I quickly learned that flight testing is all about reading regulations and checking the aircraft for compliance. Sure, there is some flying involved

I recently watched some videos of people doing plane checklists; one had an error within two minutes, another had only one pilot doing the checklist while the other was away. I've also heard that humans skipping items or entire checklists is a general problem. Out of curiosity, would people with borderline or genuine OCD be a good fit for this? (Would it be practical to factor out the "checklist compliance" into a separate person? Seems like "remaining calm in an emergency, quick thinking, judgment and reflexes", and whatever else I might imagine are best for the pilot are at best orthogonal to "obsessive following of checklists".)
Reddit is such a shit site, but it's their own shit site so let them be.

> In this particular post, she referenced causality in one sentence

Yes, precisely. She made an extraordinary claim, as if it were a minor footnote, instead of "every mainstream description of relativity is wrong in this very fundamental way."

If it were the only time I'd seen her do that in her writings, it wouldn't trouble me as much. It seems to be common, and that makes me concerned that e.g. she may be off in some branch of physics that's not well accepted at this time.
Anywhere, but in US (I guess). I have been thinking of trying to do something similar, but I am afraid of unexpected medical expenses and losing all of my savings on medical emergencies. I wonder if folks in US have a potential solution.
> whatever string you use to represent the null value EG

> "null" is now a keyword that needs to be enforced.

So in the JSON itself, you literally remove the field. In another comment I make is the point that NULL itself could be considered a proper value, you're just pushing the problem down the line. The library making such a decision for you is what may ultimately trip you up.

Instead, you could have something like:

string name = jobj.get("name", NULL)

So that it does return NULL in this case if a name hasn't been given.

But consider an example where you're loading some code into a VM's RAM:

int location = toint(jobj.get("address"))

NULL in this case is a perfectly valid place to load a program in a VM, or was it that there was an error? Or is it that no address was given in the JSON configuration?

Instead, we can specify our own "NULL" value:

int location = toint(jobj.get("address", "-1"))

So now you're asking to load something before the first position of the VM memory, which indicates an error.

The reason I ask is because it seems to me that the cap gap extension only allows staying until Sept 30, not until the petition is approved (my petition was approved in november).

Confirmation not accepted unless notarized.
I am sure the author will - impressively - read these comments and be further emboldened he was right all along. He appears to have limited capacity for self-awareness or self-doubt, which is to say, he exudes an impenetrable armor of self-righteousness. With that mentality, maybe he'll become President too.

I respect your perspective, but it's one I mostly see in younger people. It's basically that personal achievement and being able to single-handedly deliver things are the most meaningful outcomes of work. The perspective that I've come to accept is that very few things that actually impact the world can come about this way. We didn't put men on the moon because some genius did all the calculations and fabrication himself (even von Braun was only one part of a very large organization), we did it because thousands of smart and determined people set aside their personal ambitions to work together on something great. The downside of this, of course, is that everyone is effectively a cog in the machine and it's easy to get demoralized that your contributions don't mean much.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you want to actually change the world, you're unlikely to do actually do it at a tech startup. You're instead likely to talk a lot about it while the real world-changing things are happening elsewhere. But you'll probably be happier at the startup because you get more of that magic combination of autonomy, teamwork, and quickly tangible results. I just personally get frustrated that almost every startup and its employees act like they're working on the biggest problems in the world when they just... aren't.

Edit: forgot to mention. I know two people who left ULA for similar reasons to you and went to SpaceX. They loved working at SpaceX in comparison to ULA because the level of company ambition, speed, and impact was so ridiculously higher. However, one of them left SpaceX to go to a smaller aerospace startup and the other is now at Raytheon for the superior work-life balance. I'm not sure what the lesson is there...
> What’s with the wall of text?

Because, if you'd read it, it's much more nuanced than you're making it out to be. I felt an exploration might be interesting. You clearly disagree.

> Violence isn’t justified regardless of who’s doing it.

Yes, it is. If someone comes at you with a knife, you're justified in a violent response. Period. I doubt even a pacifist monk would disagree.

Where things get more interesting is what if an oppressive system comes at you, and isn't interested in your feedback or reforms?
Wall-to-wall testing would be my preferred route. In fairness I think that would be gov.uk's preferred route too if they could organise it (they can't).

You're right, it wasn't implied: it was explicitly stated.
Culture add is better than culture fit anyway. what can this person add to the character of our team that we don't already have? Insight from a completely different career field in their past?

> As for “Gust”, my sympathies are severely limited. He remained in a job where he knew his employers were taking the absolute piss out him long enough that he turned toxic himself. I get that changing jobs has its own set of costs and challenges, but thinking that your employer owes you for all your “loyalty” is a fool’s delusion. I’ve been in jobs where management’s been taking the piss while I’ve been burning out, and realizing that environment’s turning me toxic too I’ve walked.[1][2]

Why the lack of sympathy? We don't know from the article how long Gust's been in the industry; this could have been his first experience with a company so dysfunctional. I think you may have missed this bit as well:

> Gust waited until annual bonuses and stock payouts cleared, and served his notice.

Sounds like he remained precisely as long as he needed to once the scales fell from his eyes.
Kubernetes runs natively on Linux.

It sounds like your company built its dev tooling specifically around Docker for Mac. It's not surprising that it was a pain to replicate on Linux your company's work as a sole programmer.

But that doesn't mean that Linux doesn't support Kubernetes well. Linux is the primary target for k8s! It runs more efficiently and has better support than Kubernetes on Mac. Minikube has worked as a dev cluster on Linux long before Docker for Mac shipped a k8s dev cluster.

(I, too, have been involved with Kubernetes projects since the early days, and have built k8s tooling at fairly large companies.)
It wasn't explicitly stated, either.
> Did we lose a substantial amount of previously developed knowledge when the Greek or Roman civilizations collapsed?

We lost an enormous amount of knowledge in those time frames.

It took six hundred years for the Romans to reach the same technical level as the Athenians. It then took almost one thousand years for the Italians to again reach the same level as the Romans (this time being greatly increased by the shenanigans of Catholic church).

That was the whole point of the rediscovery of "classical" knowledge from the "ancients" in the Renaissance.
> the lack of randomized community screening

Lack of it? But isn’t that exactly how R is estimated?
I've worked in industries(gamedev) that bias towards hiring people who "give a shit". It leads to that passion being exploited into crunch time, burnout and all the fun things that entails.

What I've found is that you should be building teams where you "give a shit about the people". That doesn't mean that we don't work hard and that we don't tackle interesting problems. It does mean that we plan for the long term and pace things accordingly. That you make opportunities for people to grow both technically and in their career. That we succeed as a team and not due to the rock-star behavior of one or two individuals.

My experience is this builds high-trust teams that are resilient, adaptable and often product even better work than teams who over-index on the domain space. They bring diverse perspective and have significant less turn-over which is a compounding effect. While the tech stack or product you built is important, in the end it was the team that created it and where you should invest if you want to continue to see success over time.
