Though I prefer British spelling just about all programming languages and APIs use American English so I use that when programming. I do not want to search code twice for analyze/analyse, color/colour etc.
Are those solder bridges directly connected to the Ethernet Jack?
If so it would be much easier to just hook the 48V -> 5V step down converter there to avoid having to prepare a special Ethernet cable.

Large consulting firms seems to operate this way, being basically a pyramid with endless layers of non-programming "Enterprise Architect Solution Expert". I've had folks tell me explicitly when joining these firms post-grad that their goal was not to code in two years.

Out of curiosity, have you worked at a megacorp? A lot of the things you say in the article don't really ring true for me. Maybe it's team-dependent, but I actually have much better visibility here for how my actions impact "the bottom line", and I'm fairly confident that nothing I'm working on is being used to support genocide or slavery.

I've worked at small smaller companies and actually had the opposite experience. Way more NDAs, way more issues with HR (at a megacorp, it's true that HR might not give a shit on a personal level about outcomes when there's issues. I'll take that over the situation where HR is a blood relative or close personal friend of someone involved in an issue). This sort of vague apathy is awesome--I can make code contributions to a team I've never met and they're happy to accept them. At smaller companies I've worked at, crossteam collaboration was a lot more difficult because everyone had a little fiefdom they wanted to protect.

Even though I don't think (reasonable) NDAs are that big of a deal, I had way more of them at a smaller company. A bigger company is much more vertically integrated so they aren't necessary. And it's not like I'm gonna impress people at a party by reciting proprietary Xilinx datasheets.
Their post doesn't say that, and I too read the chosen wording twice. Their employment overlapped with Steve Job's lifespan, that's it. That's important to them to say, and is completely useless to us. That's all.

In general, I'm very curious what a modern EDA flow looks like for an Intel or AMD - of those two AMD are apparently much better at automating their designs. I'm guessing not much of the HDL is ever actually touched by a human any more (i.e. generated from a specification by some in house program).
There was once plenty for everyone. There could be, again, given time and action.

The destroyed fisheries always produced more value than the electrical production that replaced them. The dam people just had enough political influence to overcome reasoned opposition. Central power production represented Progress, vs. distributed, disunited and archaic fishing communities that, you know, fed people.
I hate central heating!

My natural body temperature preference is to be too cold rather than too hot[0]. And people always have central heating on far too high for my comfort. When I'm in a building with central heating, I feel my face starting to flush and sweat prickling out on my back. It's horrible and makes me feel really uncomfortable. And because it's "central" heating, I have no option but to suffer.

With an open fire, on the other hand, everyone can regulate the temperature around them to their own comfort level : Too cold? Move closer to the fire. Too warm? Move further away. Central heating is the fascism of domestic temperature control!

[0] I realise I'm probably a rarity in this. I never have the heating on at all in my own home, even in winter. If I get a bit cold, I just stick a jersey on.
Video content could be in itself another argument in favor of GP's thesis. There seems to be dearth of high quality video material. You have big-budget high quality videos, big-budget garbage, and then lots and lots of low-budget garbage: i.e. all the stuff "influencers" and "YouTube personas" create to live off ad revenue.

There is a small and somewhat obscure but relatively stable middle - low-budget, high-quality videos. I attribute its survival to two things: some live off Patreon donations and occasional sponsorship deals, others live because the creators have an actual dayjob, and they do YouTube as a hobby. This is similar to blogs - best ones are done on the side, with no expectation of revenue.

Guaranteed wealthy clients are equivalent to investors. They're actually better, because you don't have to pay them back.

One of the main ways that states fund technological advances is exactly by promising to buy the results. This was one of the most important things in early IT - the fact that the US army was buying it at all. If the companies in that space would have had to live by selling their tech on the free market, no one would have been crazy enough to invest in it.

How much of Huawei's research is done in EU? They have at least three research facilities in Sweden alone. Ericsson does a lot of research in the US. All of these companies are global, so to assign their research to only the country where they're headquartered gets a bit nonsensical.
The complicated part is that freedom of speech is both a legal right in the US and an ethical principle globally, and your legal rights are less broad than the ethical principle. Something that is legal can still be in violation of the ethical principle.

You say "[we] don't get to choose [people's reactions]", but this is not at all relevant. We're not asking whether their actions are legal or whether we can legally dictate what they think, we're asking whether they're acting ethically.
Just had another potential user that wanted to try my software get this rather silly Smartscreen error.

As a user you have to click several screens away in order to install my software. Software which is properly signed with a certificate, but well it isn't popular enough according to Microsoft to be trusted.

Not sure since when "popular" equated to "trusted".

You can click on some links to report this to Microsoft and they promise to look into it according to their automated report.

Of course.. now several months later nothing has changed.

By working in a supermarket, you're directly supporting an unethical business which relies on modern slavery in China, Africa, etc... along with being damaging to the environment (single use plastics, animal farming) and pushing wage slavery onto you and your colleagues.

It's ironic the author's name is literally "English" and the article has so many typos.
Not really. Worked for 5 companies, 2 were ruled by fear culture (including an explicit stack ranking of employees every 2 quarters, with the bottom ones being fired), one by desperation, one by... inertia maybe. The 5th is Google. Still can't figure out what it's ruled by exactly, but absolutely no fear, yet it mostly works. That's why I'm sticking around, I guess.
I've moved teams and orgs quite a bit, so I don't think it's just me being lucky with a manager. If there is fear, it's in quite isolated pockets.

Good point. And the App Store is not a retail store - developers PAY THEM to distribute their wares. They are Apple's customers too!
There's this trend of using the words "leaders", "leadership", where I think 20 years ago we just said "managers", or maybe "upper management". It's unsettling to me. Is this another step on the euphemism treadmill?
> There is too little data to claim or even suggest that there exists a "recipe" for creating good leaders.

We‘ve been studying leadership since the very first books were written (and probably since the first tribal elders started sharing their experiences around the camp fire).

It is important to keep in mind that effective leadership can be stunningly diverse and depends heavily on personality and context. Stanley McChrystal makes this point quite well. Nonetheless, there are certain characteristics and traits that many effective leaders exhibit in some way or another. (IMO, John Maxwell provides an excellent summary of these.)

But I heartily agree with your sentiment that reading biographies of leaders is one of the best ways of „learning the trade“ (aside from actually, you know, leading).
Fraud and perhaps trademark infringement
Just to give you some perspective, using Google as an example. I don't know when Google had 5,000 employees, but I have a source[0] that says they had 3,000 in 2004, when they went public, and after the market settled their market cap was $23 billion. Today, it's $1.185 trillion.

Lawmakers and politicians in my country (Spain) have evolved from antagonising renewal energy to having a passive attitude during the last few years. I would like to see a more aggressive approach toward implementing these forms of energy, like in other EU countries.
That's too bad. There are whole worlds of fantastic experience that this type of viewpoint is holding you back from experiencing.

Life can be very rough. It's certainly not fair, that's for sure. But there are many more possibilities and new perspectives waiting to be discovered and explored.

We are limited by our current frame of mind and past experience. If we strive to continually break through these barriers, we will never stop surprising ourselves at what we find and learn. The universe is a vast and incredible place. It is can also be quite scary and dangerous, this is true. But deep within all of us is an unrelenting urge to work together to face these dangers and overcome them. If you stop for a minute, I'm sure you can feel it.

My best wishes to you :)
Perhaps this isn't appealing to a certain mindset, and I'd probably go crazy myself, but I definitely know plenty of engineers that would love this and work for these kind of companies. Low effort, highly stable pay. Exceeding the bar and earning your 2-10% bonus every year while still raking in 120K+ base w/ health benefits and an OK 401k match.
The video would've been marginally more interesting if he had actually looked at the original text instead of just various 19th century translations. I'm actually vaguely curious about which interpretation is more accurate, but if the guy making the video doesn't bother doing the legwork I don't think I will either.
Neither, just a minor character of low plot importance.
> If you as an employee are pushing back against your employer because of "free speech", you're going to have a bad

Actually, in california, your statement is not true.

Califorinia has numerous labor protections, that fall within the category of "free speech", and that prevent private businesses from retaliating against employees for certain reasons.

To give an extreme example, although it might be federally legal for a private company to interrogate and fire all democrats, it would absolutely not be legal in California.
Not currently. The code is on GitHub, but we do not have a public-facing model. We felt that the world doesn't need another GPT-2 replica, but if there's interest we can look into doing so though. We are planning on making our GPT-3 replica public facing though.

i don't work for a FAANG company but if i did, the reason would be primarily pay. if you're making 500k$/year in california, you can take home around 280k after taxes. no small/medium tech business i'm aware of is paying that much.

it's easy to say money isn't everything. but you don't really need to work very long to retire with that kind of money. if you're single (even in the bay area) it should be relatively easy to live a fairly cushy life on 100k$/year spending. that means you can pocket 180k$/year in savings. if you invest it, and the stock market returns 7%/year on average[1], you will be a millionaire in 5 years. it's one of the lowest risk ways for a young engineer to accumulate wealth. definitely within reach to retire in your early 40s, depending on how much money you want to spend.

[1] no investment is guaranteed but the stock market has been very reliable in the past with a long enough timeline.
It is cheaper since the chinede spy agencies sponsor it.

Well said. And why you invest as little emotion as possible into business. You don't want to be wedded to anything but making money.
There’s 112 waking hours per week, if you sleep eight hours, so more than half that is 56 hours a week. Are you working seven days a week or something?
> You are directly supporting an unethical business and generating at least as much revenue for them as the salary you take home.

Whoever benefits from this value/excess value can behave unethically with it: is it evident that Bigcorp will behave (on average/net) more unethically than Smallco?

If you work for Bigcorp and act to help them behave more ethically, are you making more of a difference than you would elsewhere?

I say this lovingly, as someone who has actively chosen not to work for Bigcorps because I find them unethical. It's not always immediately obvious that the alternatives are more ethical. A smaller company might do more harm and face less scrutiny.
Yes, this is the other crust of the issue that we developers need to understand - We are the ones that ADD VALUE to a platform like ios or macOS or Android. It is incredibly short-sighted to then PAY to develop and distibute apps on it!
According to the article GE already has orders for $13B worth of monster turbines. That's a substantial business.
The point is that the game should not be removed for violating some silly guideline because its title contains “simulator”.
Pay at a FAANG is often significantly higher, even in remote satellite offices, compared to the local market. Also, working at a FAANG early in your career, especially in an area where this is uncommon, is a very clear boost to your CV. You don't have to spend your entire career there. People don't give enough credit to new grads to know where the market is.
I'm ok with fining people for it. I'm not fine with wandering around and seizing personal property that could conceivably be used to produce noise pollution.

Generally speaking, we should only allow the government to intervene in personal freedoms when there is a compelling interest, and we should expect that the interventions are tailored to be as minimal as possible. A compelling reason existing is no excuse to give the government unlimited powers, for fairly obvious reasons.

For corporations, this obviously means complying with a robust regulatory framework; if I own a company that sells wood burning stoves, then I have to comply with EPA regulations around how many grams per hour of soot it may emit when properly maintained. In exchange for having to keep up with the changing regulations, the government should provide reasonable timelines and clarity around what is expected.

As a private citizen, this means accepting some limitations on how we use our private property. As a citizen I can legally purchase a car, own a firearm, and consume alcohol, but if I decide to use all three at once I will probably lose my right to have all three, plus I'll get locked in jail. Occasionally changing regulatory requirements will mean that certain pieces of equipment can't be operated anymore; if you had a car that had to use leaded fuel (not a substitute), then it would effectively be illegal to operate it going forward. What is not fine is for the government to say "your car needs leaded fuel, so we are going to seize it from you".

The government should not be in the business of seizing private property that may be used to violate the law, especially when it was purchased legally. We don't do pre-crime in this country, owning something that may be used to violate the law is not a crime punishable by loss of private property. We also have constitutional protections against ex post facto laws; you cannot punish a citizen for what they purchased back when it was legal. If it's necessary to put strict limits on pollution and fine users who exceed them, that is fine by me. I'd even be happy to pay a bit more in taxes to fund optional buybacks and incentives to help users buy newer and more efficient units. But proposing that the government go and seize private property that may be used to eventually break some new regulation is beyond the pale.

Hmm, just to try and understand your view a little better, it sounds by that logic that toy makers should also provide technical schematics when they sell toys so that consumers could add or fix elements of what they bought?
And what do all three have in common? Microtubules, as predicted by Orch OR. It will take a long time for the entrenched interests heavily invested in AI to admit artificial general intelligence is not possible with classical hardware.

> Within intra-protein hydrophobic regions, anesthetic gas molecules bind by London force dipole couplings, and thereby (somehow) exert their effects on consciousness. Historically, views of anesthetic action have focused on neuronal membrane proteins, but actual evidence (e.g. from genomics and proteomics), points to anesthetic action in microtubules. In the most definitive anesthetic experiment yet performed, Emerson et al. used fluorescent anthracene as an anesthetic in tadpoles, and showed cessation of tadpole behavior occurs specifically via anthracene anesthetic binding in tadpole brain microtubules. Despite prevailing assumptions, actual evidence supports anesthetic action on microtubules.[1]

> I talked about paramecium, single cell organisms which could swim nimbly, find food and mates, avoid obstacles and predators, learn, and have sex, all without synapses, using their microtubules. For information capacity we calculated a billion tubulins per neuron switching at, for example, 10 megahertz, giving 1016 operations per second per neuron, 1027 ‘ops/sec’ in the brain. This pushed the AI target for brain equivalence in computers far into the future. ‘Simulate a paramecium before worrying about a brain!’, I insisted — I became unpopular among AI people, and remain so.[2]

The cashier at the supermarket does not enjoy a job market with exceptionally high salaries, benefits, and mobility. They don't have any choice. You do.
Really cool analysis! Weirdly I get a total of 0 messages sent and received, but the `span` has a style that seems to have the correct number. My top 10 data was all there and correct. Nice job!
Depends on the team and company. If it is a US company or predominately US team then I'd say American English. If instead it is a British based company, or predominately a British team then I'd say British standards. As an American I would have no issues with using British spellings of words if that was the decided path.

In the end, I think consistency in the code base is most important and a note on the repository which says which it follows. It only becomes a problem if people use both interchangeably or inconsistently, that makes it a pain in the ass.
