It calls some of these stateless, but don't they all have to run a secondary look-up?

For example, in Basic Authentication, you still have to check the username and password against a database, whether that be a file, a relational database, LDAP, etc. For JWT, to verify the signature you must look up the issuer's pre-shared or public key.

Is it even possible for a request be stateless if it requires authentication?
This is like a website that says "contact us" under the Pricing menu.

Do your homework. These days it's not that hard to determine what a competitive rate for a job is. Then ask for the top end of that, or even a bit more. It shows that you know what you are getting into, what you are worth, and quickly surfaces that there's been a misunderstanding about the job, if there has been one.

Sure maybe push back a little to see if they'll throw out the first number. But don't dance around it too much. Have your number in mind.

Couple of hours vs 30-40 minutes.

I prefer to have multiple short interviews with different engineers rather than a single multi-hour long one with only one engineer. You get better feedback and it helps against bias.

Not only that but a "toy JS app" implies the candidate knows JS at all. If it's college recruiting, you are better sticking with algorithms since you know that they know it.

This drives me nuts. I want to listen to an album, not a song. But I'm guessing this is an old-school POV that the younger demographic doesn't agree with.
Same here. After lots of crashes and problems connecting a monitor throught a DP to USB-C cable, I bought the TS3+ and this works much better. So far not a single crash, and everything works fine for me (Mac OS Catalina, MBP 16"). I use Gigabit Ethernet, displayport (4K monitor), some USB3 devices, and somewhere in the neighborhood of a bajillion USB2 devices connected via additional hubs.
I am entirely fine with someone saying "all that is intended for this story to do is to elicit a smile". That's an entirely valid thing to say and/or goal to have.

However ... having established that as the goal for this particular story, we can ask how well it does that, compared to other stories that might also have this as their only goal. We probably should ask this, because there almost innumerable stories whose primary purpose is to create a smile, and we may as well not waste our time on the less good ones given that we have (individually and as a culture) only a finite time to tell and/or listen to stories.

The ranking is necessarily personal (subjective), and incomplete (given the scope of possible stories). Even so, if I was looking for a story to just smile at, I'd rank this one fairly low (mostly because it butts right against the more difficult questions you've asked us to put aside (for a while, at least)).
Show HN: Vegan/Vegetarian Food Customization (2 mins)
Me and my friend have been vegan for 4 years now. We decided to create a Veg/Vegetarian platform to help make the process of finding the available food options easier.

Two core features: (1) Search for any dish of your choice and see all the options, which you can filter by price, delivery, nutritional info etc. (2) Create your OWN MEAL and see which local restaurants could cook it for you.

The site provides you with personalised feed, allows to have a prompt ‘chat’ with any restaurant, and sugests healthier options. It is designed for people with allergies, food intolerance and other diets just as much, due to the detailed meal info.

Hope to hear your thoughts We’d really appreciate it.

Thanks!

(In the video, only the ‘Create’ feature is shown)
Buy Alphabet or OpenAI stock. Or even Tesla, which also helps us to get closer to self driving cars. Although I can't comment on whether the trades themselves will give you profit or not, as that's impossible to say at this point :)
When I read people like or love Notion, I wish I could watch them use it. Obviously they are doing things very differently than I do...

Typing latency while writing or editing a page is really high (bad). Every keypress you do, must be going through a long chain of "what can we interpret the user to be wanting ?" questions. Guess what!? The user is probably just trying to fucking type! Special features and options should be hotkey activated, not "smart" default deduced.

The afore-mentioned smart typing is 99% wrong or in the way. Typing slash ( / ), for any reason apparently, and in any context, pops up the Basic Blocks selection window. If you type, for example, "10 / 2 = 5", or perhaps "a/b testing", or any other very common valid use of the slash symbol, you are left with that stupid popup on the screen. You have to hit ESC to close it. Pity the fool who has a touchbar Mac. And if for some reason you wanted to end your line with a slash, and you hit return after typing that /, the popup eats the slash and puts you in a new block below.

I could go ON and ON with examples. It actually feels like this app was designed for people who only use one finger to type and the other hand driving a mouse all day.

Oh one last tidbit. You know how people put icons on buttons and other things to help you identify them quickly, hopefully to make it easier for you to click and get what you want? Notion has a clever fuck you to all those users. If you use the navigation tree panel, and you see the item you want - especially because you quickly recognized its icon - and you click it (the icon), do you get the item you wanted? No, of course not! You get a handy Change Icon popup. Now not only do you not know if you found the item you wanted (since you didn't get to see its associated page), but instead you now have to dismiss that popup. Clicking that icon should have done exactly the same thing as clicking the text beside it: open the damned content associated with that thing.

Now, maybe you want to copy a link to that item. How do you do that? That's in the hidden/hover [...] button for the item. That's fair. And that's where the change icon action should be.

There's so much wrong with this app that I sometimes wonder if this isn't an enormous practical joke - like the people who write completely nonsensical research papers just to prove how broken the research publishing system is; this joke is for the VCs and the shiny-toy users.

> When googling a recipe, precede it with ‘best’. You’ll find better recipes.

For something new I'm trying, I favor recipes by authors I've found reliable in the past, e.g. Alton Brown, Deb Perelman (Smitten Kitchen), Ina Garten, Julia Child. They have high quality bars, so if they have a recipe, it's usually a good one.

I don't agree with it for any company. When the private sector crowds out basic research and takes over the function of public institutions, there are three reasonable scenarios. 1. they let the researchers do what they want and science goes on, 2. they're regulated so they can't compromise science, 3. they do what Google does, in which case it's time to take the gloves off and go to 2. because the integrity of scientific research for its own sake is more important than whatever corporate dystopia Google is trying to build.

Aside from using IPs directly, modern malware often uses an algorithm to generate domain names for C&C communication. Good luck trying to use a domain whitelist on the modern internet because web developer seem to actively fight against such a concept as not using every domain they possibly can.
> Well, no, a fancy high-end steakhouse will cost you that. You can have a decent steak for much less.

It depends on what you call "decent" and what's the general quality of produce in your country. There are cheaper steaks here too, but they it's just pieces of charred mediocre meat, which you wouldn't risk to order done medium rare anyway.

> It's just the rampant US-version of classism (if one think it's bad in the UK, have them wait till they talk to some upper-middle class US people).

Not that there's anything wrong with classism, but classism itself is your attitude towards people, not things. Taste in food is not and cannot be classism by definition.

The reality is that industrial psychology has consistently found that fluid intelligence is the best predictor of job performance. Even more so than experience.[0]

Whiteboard interviews are used, not because they have a lot of relevance to the job, but because they're a hard-to-fake indicator of high intelligence. Somebody who shows a lot of mental fluidity with complex data structures, almost assuredly can quickly master any specific tech stack. Even more so than a less intelligent person with years of experience in that specific tech stack.

It's the same reason that the military selects infantrymen based on word synonyms and fast mental arithmetic. What does that have to do with loading a rifle or marching in formation? Not a whole lot specifically, but whenever they've lower the intelligence standards, the results have been disastrous.[1]

There are other important qualities for certain. Honesty, resilience, hard work, enthusiasm, being a team player, reliability, etc. But almost all of those qualities are easy to fake and hard to assess in a 30 minute conversation. People who are hired on these qualities, are usually tapped from a pre-existing network, not selected from the recruiter funnel. If you've only got a half hour to choose a candidate, then pretty much your only reliable option is test their intelligence.

My friends and I all did it, the punchlines all seem to be the same. I think it feels “creepy” if you attach emotion to songs (I certainly do!) and then listen to them often, but it’s really not all that hard to pick out your top tracks/artists to do that with. Anyway it’s still fun, I liked it
If you (a low quality candidate) run into a FANG company with a job offer from a no-name company _just_ to create pressure it's no different than the analogy.

FANG doesn't want you before and they don't want you now, and they're also repulsed about the way you tried to get them to budge.

Recruiters and hiring managers are people too and the secret in the industry is most people are not qualified for the work being hired. Hiring incurs risk and the interview is risk mitigation. So if some low end candidate comes in trying to light a fire under themselves they will burn twice as bright but dismissed in a quarter of time.

Where he reviews a paper that shows in 2 males, loperamide lead to cardiac arrhythmia and death. The doses they took arent clear but it's in the heroic range. (50x-100x 'normal')

I think the whole selling point of notebooks is their literate style, and it being a kind of collaborative, shareable scratch pad. I’ve done so many demos and pitches of ideas with notebooks, it’s a super useful tool for story telling and reproducible tutorials.

Having said this, for anything that goes even slightly in the direction of production (like some kind of model training and/or processing pipelines), you should absolutely not use it.

I'll just point out that Google itself has backed off on statements that she resigned. Sundar's email (the most recent public comms) limit itself to describing it as "her departure", and my understanding of California law is that her "departure" would be classified as a dismissal, not a resignation, though ultimately this depends on very particular specifics that aren't public, such as when her last paydate was, however what I've seen seems to suggest that it would lean towards dismissal. [0]

For what its worth, I don't think "threatening to resign" is the same as resignation. Much as I don't think "threatening to shoot someone" is attempted homicide.

FWIW, I refuse to buy stuff from the Mac App Store because it's just not compatible with my life. I don't have any i-devices. I have a handful of iCloud/iTunes accounts of which I'm not sure which is technically the one I want to use (one of them is even a legacy pre-email one).

I never connect my OSX box with my personal email and I will not in the future. I get it, but I just won't buy software from that store, hands down.

Maybe I'm just in the dwindling minority of Mac users.
I wrote my own. It is web based so no need for an App Store gatekeeper.

That's precisely the point though. It works for small devs but as you grow that 15% is enough to pay a team to build your own app store.

That's the problem with the model.
I can't look at that website due to certificate trust settings, however thanks for replying with data. It's pretty interesting numbers (lets assume its true).

So a raise of 25% would equate to 1.28% unemployment. A fully socialized welfare system (Centrelink in Australia) costs 14% of GDP with 6.8% unemployment. So a reversal of 25% would reduce that to 5.52%, and 11.36% of GDP (assuming overheads etc are linear, optimistic).

TLDR; if this article is correct, raising minimum wage 25% requires governments invest 2.6PP of GDP.

At least that's a decent point to have a rational discussion about where governments spend money and what your priorities are - thanks for sharing.

I think it's the kerning, or when we are being funny, 'keming' which is a visual pun (when kerning goes wrong, kerning and keming are homographs).

Ironically, the text I had the hardest time reading on their example page was the name of the font itself: Comic Mono has all the letters running together.

Unfortunately Comic Shanns doesn't render its own name in the examples that I see, but you can see that the capital C has another pixel between it and the next letter.

ETA: Author generated this font via the use of some scripts, which are inline near the bottom. There's a line about target_width in there, I'm curious what happens if you bump that from 510 to 530...

You might like justfiles[1]. They’re designed pretty much on this philosophy.

I would agree with you if I was on my old machine with an nVidia graphics card which for what it is worth my new machine is a much better experience with AMD processor and integrated graphics but still how do you explain audio in failing to work as soon as I upgraded to Fedora 33 / kernel 5.8 and it (mostly) resolving itself when upgrading to 5.9 kernel? Is this a kernel bug or not? What caused it? What can we do to prevent it from happening in the future?
It is true that Cellebrite blog post looks like an amateur work. However, an important context is missing from signal' blog post:

Cellebrite specializes in breaking and extracting data from encrypted partitions, and (this is the important part) extracting keys from the secure keystore (Qualcomm/exynos).

From Cellebrite point of view, the data and keystore are already "given", all the remains is "breaking" the app encryption scheme, which in signal's case is trivial.

That's terrible behavior from the interviewer. Did you try raising this with your recruiter?

Agreed, the slowness is especially painful on mobile, which is the exact opposite of what you need from a note taking tool. I use other tools on mobile and copy to notion later which is exactly as convenient as it sounds.

I do agree with the thrust of the article too, although I don't find any one UX issue (beyond slowness) a deal-breaker, but together they're collectively a pretty frustrating experience.
A thousand small issues add up to a product that is technically usable, but incredibly frustrating. I tried using notion a couple times, but I can’t imagine why anyone would want to use this.

Unfortunately it bas become an identity marker (https://www.letelegramme.fr/france/les-francais-refractaires...), so it's too late to make people change their mind. The "good" news is that elderly, mildly conservative people are more prone to get vaccinated, so at least, if the vaccines are as efficient as hoped in the long run, it should release some pressure on the hospitals. Which might make it possible to release some of the restrictions, which might just calm people down a bit and let everyone have a cooler debate, possibly in a year or two.Then, we'll have a presidential election and(no kidding) a referendum about making the constitution talk about climate change. It will be less profitable to spew conspiracy theory about vaccines, so laymen will take their shots, and we'll get crazy and insane about something else. Maybe a world cup or something ?
