> Well, all while and for loops are ripoffs of Algol.

That is my point, C didn't "invent" for loops just like Apple didn't "invent" a near featureless rectangle.

But nether did Algol, for loops are the obvious next step for a conditional jump with a counter. In my analogy arguing about people copying Apple's iPad is like saying "look the syntax is more Algol-like than C-like", who cares, really... making simple and inevitable decisions doesn't mean people can own them and call it design, that's the child version of copyright "I have it so you can't have it".
If that proposed mechanism is actually operating in practice, and if there are no other mechanisms that counteract it, then yes, it would.
Err, that example would be religionist, not racist, right? The African folks in question are Jewish.

I'm not saying there aren't problems with racism in Israel, or that the state isn't actively cruel to people it views as different, just that your citation doesn't seem to imply racism per se.

Yeah, that's what's stopped me from continuing with the show so far, the characters are all insufferable. At least in Silicon Valley they're insufferable and hilarious.
IANAL, but the enterprise companies that make up Slack's customer base are often under regulations to preserve their employees' official communications in case they are needed for future investigations. Those same regulations prevent them from using the products you listed as official communication channels.
I often find it "justifying human exceptionalism" presented as science. The unstated assumption is that humans are somehow better than chimpanzees (here, it is almost literally stated), and therefore that we must reverse engineer and fill in the gaps to justify this. It strikes me that I have no reason to believe the assumption, nor any way of reverse engineering the random process of natural selection.

In my opinion, other sciences are not immune to this.
background: In John Company, players assume the roles of ambitious families attempting to use the British East India Company for personal gain. The game begins in the early eighteenth-century, when the Company has a weak foothold on the subcontinent. Over the course of the game, the Company might grow into the most powerful and insidious corporation in the world or collapse under the weight of its own ambition.

John Company is a game about state-sponsored trade monopoly. Unlike most economic games players often do not control their own firms. Instead, they will collectively guide the Company by securing positions of power, attempting to steer the Company’s fate in ways that benefit their own interests. However, the Company is an unwieldy thing. It is difficult to do anything alone, and players will often need to negotiate with one another. In John Company, most everything is up for negotiation.
This is where equity becomes important.

If you're a company hiring engineers but can't offer a 'market rate' or find that people aren't accepting offers because the compensation is too low, your other bargining chip is to offer equity.

Maybe its .1%, .05%, .2% or even .5%.

Why can't these growing businesses that are profitable offer equity to their employees? Equity aligns incentives. If the buisness is growing and profitable the equity is valueable (and should grow in value!) as well. Even if the company remains private, there are mechanisms for trading shares of a private company.

Companies don't need to raise salaries by 20% for everyone every year. They do need to be open to making adjustments as needed. Especially if they care about retention. Otherwise they'll end up spending far more than that 20% increase on turnover, hiring costs, and onboarding costs. Which will only leave them at the same capacity as before.

The new hire will likely also be asking for a higher salary since the market will have appreciated anyway.

If you happen to know of a place though that offers 20% raises each year I'm all ears!

The entire question is predicated on how you define "intelligence". Personally I subscribe to the view that we should avoid using the word altogether when referring to computers.

That doesn't seem an unreasonable ratio. I was at an analyst meeting at IBM Research many years ago and one factoid I still remember is that IBM at the time had more general managers (i.e. a rather senior management position) than fellows; I think there were about 300 of the latter.

This meets the textbook definition of snake oil.

Electric cars are great. If they can be solar powered, also great! Solar paint — sure, go for it!

Selling it as "the car charges itself" — really, no. That is dishonest and scammy.

The writeup just anchors this conclusion with excessive verbiage, itself a red flag, vague numbers about ideal conditions, and enticing but deceptive misdirection about oh-my-gosh we don't want to overcharge the battery now, do we? Snake oil.
Even w/ a clear desert sky hundreds of miles from the nearest city (e.g. middle of Nevada), the sky looks nothing like these pictures. Astrophotography uses exposure times many multiples--and usually several orders of magnitude--longer than the human eye.

Can you see the Milkyway? No, not really; not without prompting. If you have no idea what to look for, the disc is just a barely imperceptible, slight increase in otherwise meager (relative to astrophotographs) star density. I've never seen it, nor other constellations, because I don't really know what to look for, though I've spent many hours staring up at the sky from various places, including extremely remote desert and mountain locales--Western U.S., Northern Mexico, Mongolia, Ecuador, Chile, etc.

Of course, there's no way to understand the awe and wonderment somebody lacking our knowledge, experience, and expectations may have experienced. Especially if they had never seen an astrophotograph.

EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, I wonder if astrology, navigation, and astronomy might have developed more slowly if the human eye had greater fidelity. With only several thousand stars visible (much fewer readily discernible, especially if you're not an adolescent w/ fresh corneas), the motion of stars probably stands out more. Imagine trying to recognize and track the planets on a background as dense as an astrophotograph. Where to start? Would you even recognize the relative motion? People had much fewer distractions during nighttime back then, but it still seems substantially more daunting.

There was some ongoing consternation at ISS around 96-97 about an employee being a Phrack editor. Management talked to them but it didn't threaten their career.
Using some equivalent, yes
I'd go farther than even that.

I'd say that by talking about mistakes without blame, I think we actually avoid people making mistakes because folks can learn from other's mistakes, and see them as something they could just as easily do, and so internalize the lesson.
Hey ilmoi,

Do you support multi-node training? Particularly, can I reserve for example a 64-GPU instance via 8 nodes and perform distributed training?
That is seriously awesome. Touched by history.
Hey HN, I’m Isabel, one of the co-founders of Runway. We’re building a SaaS platform that makes it easier to coordinate your team’s iOS and Android releases. Hook up your existing toolchain (e.g. Jira, GitHub, Bitrise, App Store Connect, Slack), and we’ll create a single source of truth for your mobile app release: providing a live timeline of the progress of the release, handling communication of status and blockers, and automating manual steps along the way.

Our team met back in 2013 building Rent the Runway’s iOS app together, and we’ve spent the years since then working on mobile app teams of all sizes. Everywhere we went, getting iOS or Android releases out the door was always an "event". Someone would be stuck spending hours with multiple Chrome tabs open checking on the status of different tools, killing time while waiting for builds to upload, Slacking the owners of various tasks (or worse, @here’ing in a shared channel and hoping for a response), and referring back to a massive Google spreadsheet with the team’s specific release process.

While some build-centric tasks can be automated (e.g. using fastlane or scripts), we see that a lot of the overhead of releases is actually very people-centric: keeping your PM up to date on progress, looping in marketing for release notes, or syncing with QA on the status of regression testing. We also noticed that, even with a solid CI pipeline in place (which itself requires vigilance and maintenance!), there are still lots of manual tasks along the way - build selection, branching and tagging, compiling changelogs, etc.

Runway connects all those dots — it’s the tool we wish we had on our old app teams. It pulls in all Jira tickets and code relevant to the release, side-by-side, to surface and resolve any out-of-sync tickets or code. You can set up custom, interactive checklists with item-specific owners to replace the monster Google spreadsheet, and our Slack integration will ping the appropriate people or notify everyone when important milestones happen. Design/marketing can enter ‘What’s New’ release notes directly in Runway for all localizations (with a handy list of new features in the release to reference) without you having to hunt them down. Plus, Runway helps teams maintain good workflow hygiene by automatically tagging releases in GitHub and applying missing labels to Jira tickets. We’re working on further automation to make releases as hands-off as possible: from kickoff, to submit, to release.

We’re excited to talk to more teams and the HN community at large about their unique release process challenges (and general thoughts as well!)
I think your tool might be helpful for documenting requirements, for teams that have not adopted something like BDD. And maybe for mapping the requirements to tests and source code. Have you seen examples of this?
The roaring 20's are typically left out of evaluations because it was ten years of boom to bust cycles. look it up, it'll look familiar. The market can remain irrational and that was before all the stimulus and QE and now what ever interest rate shenanigans we're about to model off of Japan.
yah, that's a political (and politicized) assertion. you also don't get to define terms only to your convenience, without consideration for the long arc of history and the breadth of the world's imagination.

> "At the end of the day, Trump is a classic fascist, and his supporters are supporting fascism."

impulsive statements like this reveal the limitations of that kind of rigid thinking. trump isn't a fascist, he's a self-centrist. he's one of the simplest human beings to understand because of this. politicized projections such as yours are overfitted at best, and completely unfitted in most cases, as in this case.

1. When it comes to middleware implementations, that's a feature, not a bug. Inside your views, do what you want, they are either a short to medium size function, or a small class. In your templates, I agree, so don't call ORM functionality from there directly. You can also just pass a `"books": tuple(books_queryset)` to the template engine to avoid having them be able to add additional filter conditions.

2. Different way of thinking, but there are lots of times when you need to explicitly call object1.save() but not object2.save() quite yet. I think having a Session.commit() and Session.rollback() might be helpful, and I'd love clean/dirty tracking. Currently, figuring out of a given instance of a model is clean is a PITA and is often times necessary.

3. I have never felt this was a problem, from the point of view that certain types of code should not change state, so just don't do it. If you don't trust your code to not change state from under you, then why are you writing such code?

4. Agreed. I usually throw all my models into a single `core` app, and the rest of the functionality lives elsewhere. This gives me a nice separation between business logic and database storage logic too.

5. Seems like a small annoyance you deal with once. Also having a model per file feels super wasteful in terms of a model that contains no logic, no custom manager, just a half dozen fields. Hunting through files and dealing with circular imports sucks way more than having slightly longer files.

The most surprising thing about TikTok is that it works in the browser. No app or login required. According to a certain Firefox extension, the videos are downloadable as well.

I suppose the point of an app like TT is that logging in saves your view history and provides 'better' suggestions. However, I'm perfectly fine with watching the popular ones that are shared to Reddit or Twitter. No need to go to the source.
I considered that, surprisingly enough since I had not had my first cup of coffee when I typed all that verbage.

I decided that the subsidies are equivalent to greasing the wheels in that they provides an incentive for people to choose the path that you wish them to choose in absence of the subsidy. If you have a goal of eliminating brucellosis from your native herds and you want it to happen in as short a time period as possible then you design a program that rewards people for taking quick action.

The program controls can also do useful things like set a time limit on the availability of the subsidy so that people can be helped to understand that if they hesitate to act they will lose out on the benefit. It should also have controls in place to identify and sanction bad actors so that anyone in a position to falsify data will know in advance that damaging sanctions exist and that enforcement will be a program priority. Veterinarians would need to be on board with defrauding the system since they have to sign off on the relevance of the subsidy on a case by case basis. It seems unlikely that someone who has spend such a large part of their life earning that position, a position that will see them able to earn a good living for themselves and their families, would risk losing all of it by falsifying data.

It is clear that India has decided that vaccination is a net positive and that the end result is worth the cost since society will win. A subsidy to help those who stand to lose something, even temporarily like the milk output reduction, seems like a great trade.

Hacking became "cool" for the corporate world in the late 90's. Movies like The Matrix and the fact that nothing too valuable was online yet meant that getting hacked was likely just web site defacement.

This nice sounding theory is trivial to disprove.

It’s often not advantageous to know the truth, especially when the truth is complicated or uncomfortable. It will be rejected or ignored.

You frequently have far more of a competitive advantage if you can make others believe something, whether it’s true or not.

Outside of some very specific domains (like investing, but even markets are irrational), I don’t think it’s accuracy that makes information powerful, it’s emotion.
The problem could be with distribution.

In a hunter-gatherer society, all members require this intelligence described in the article.

In a hierarchical early agricultural society, only the ruling classes and to an extent middle classes do.

Thus you end up with a distribution of intelligence (and brain size) aligned along caste, with a wide range. Who you sample influences your measurements.

I got a degree of electrical engineering in one of the eastern european countries while learning some scripting languages as a hobby, since I was a nerd since high school and wanted to know how to build websites. At some point I learned enough Ruby on Rails to be hired as a junior dev in a sketchy startup in my home-country. I kept learning new stuff and improving doing the work and at some point became a confident Mid level dev. I interviewed with a RoR consultancy in US and they offered me a job and an H1-B visa. I started maintaining open source libraries that I needed for work and got some recognition from it. I went to some conferences with my coworkers in US and networked. After a year and a half in the consultancy, I interviewed with a successful YC startup and got an offer and moved to SF. After another two years in SF in this company I moved to Seattle and continued working for them remotely.

I now work for a different YC company with an office in Seattle (although it's been fully remote for the last year for obvious reasons) and most of my coworkers are ex-FAANG employees. The compensation is quite generous (around FAANG-levels) and I feel like I've learned enough stuff throughout my career to compensate for my lack of formal CS education.
You're not serious. Look at who ran ISS!

It just felt so contrived to me, above and beyond what is normal for a TV show. These 6ish people are responsible for pretty much every revolution and success in the tech sector? Yeah fuck that. It felt like tech-bro worship, completely ignoring the same folks everyone else always ignores who tend to be the ones putting in the uninteresting work that keeps those types able to make their successes.

But I watched every second of it with interest so I don't know what that says about me.
OpenBSD 6.8-stable packages are in a different directory, the ones you linked are -release packages which are unchanged since OpenBSD 6.8 was released.

https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.8/packages-stable/

The OpenBSD package tools will automatically prefer newer packages from this location.

That being said, this is a best effort, not all packages receive updates, security fixes for chromium cannot backported to 6.8-stable due to significant changes between versions, and it would be a major burden for the maintainers to update to later versions without potentially also needing to update other ports dependencies. ABI breakages cannot happen on -stable.

There are newer versions of chromium available for users who follow -current and are running 6.9-beta snapshots.
