That's not a contractual mistake though, is it?

It was an auction, meaning anyone could bid, and he put a genuine bid for $200k. Just because the system crashed doesn't mean anyone actually made a representation they didn't intend to.

A more realistic example would be the wrong house getting listed for auction due to clerical error (but one still owned by the bank). I'm fairly sure that would be set aside.

Video games might be the highest form of art because of how long they can engage a human:

Picture/Sculpture: 1-10 minutes

Film:100-500 minutes

Book:100-1000 minutes

TV: 500-10000 minutes

Games:10,000-2,000,000 minutes
Why wouldn't they allow it, though?
"Supermarket" doesn't mean large chain store, it just means large store containing both food and household items. Plenty of locales have local supermarkets, either as singular stores or small regional chains. Whole Foods started this way. It was six years after the first store that they first expanded outside Austin, and their growth was fueled by buying lots of these small chains.[1]

I would say it's not only possible, but likely that some of these chains used a pro/con mask stance to distinguish themselves in certain regions of the U.S.

No, not really. Excessive measures were taken beyond the normal safe operation of the vehicle to try and create a narrative. This is journalism today.
Not OP, but somewhat similar situation and conclusion.

Racism is too strong a word, it's more like sticking out. Like if you're the only one in large group who has black hair, or doesn't have a beard, or is a childless adult, or is religious, the assumptions of the group will from time to time remind you (and perhaps others) that you're unusual. I believe those are what are called micro-aggressions, though there need not be anything antagonistic about them.

It's fun to be different, exotic even, but it's also tiring, especially once the novelty has worn off and you just want to live like everyone else.
My older brother is like this. He's a very extroverted person and is capable of connecting with people very easily, and the other party genuinly seems interested in the conversation.

I'm the polar opposite in that I'm introverted. For whatever reason, whenever I engage in conversation with someone I don't know I always assume that they'd like the interaction to end as soon as possible and that they're not interested in prolonged conversation with me.

One thing I notice is that whenever I'm walking with my brother in the street, whenever we're approached by someone, they'll always approach him for whatever reason. I tried to think of reasons why, but can't come up with anything. I'm taller than my brother (he's about 5'6" and I'm 5'9") so I'd assume that people would approach me first, but it's always him. Sometimes I feel like it has to do with face symmetry. My brother's face is fairly symmetric, whereas mine is slightly assymmetric in the jaw area. Maybe it makes people more responsive/comfortable?
Most of art seems to have gone this way. Contemporary art museums are full of random nonsense few people find any pleasure in, anything to be curious about, or anything to become excited by. So much architecture is just ugly, like some kind of experiments gone bad. It's pretty depressing that people accept that there's something there, while they themselves can't see it. They trust the experts, be it experts in architecture, art, or poetry. The result is crap that can't hold up to stuff created 300 years ago, but that still gets recognized as work if genius. Example: Beeple's art has sold for more than any Rafael.

Theoretically.

Except that the artistic (in the sense of art as expression) quality of most video games is poor, and how else could it be, given the production methods? For most games it is somewhere between slot machines and actual high art. I have yet to play a game for the story, too. It seems possible...

I say that as someone who appreciates most kinds of art at least a little and does play video games.

Interesting, are you sure about this? The only clause I find in the constitution mentions post offices and post roads (perhaps that's what you're thinking of?), but nothing about their security. To my knowledge federal agencies were only established by the Administrative Procedures Act after WWII (which is basically the "constitution" of federal agencies), but I'm not sure if there's other similar terminology that might be in the constitution. If someone has a link to the clause that would be interesting.

To you and easton, my point is that even if Power Query has shortcomings, it's clearly the best thing to build on and improve, assuming VBA is dying a slow death and can't be revived. Even if, like, you wanted to make another separate language, it should still resemble Power Query, only better.

I don't think people at Microsoft are looking at Excel as a whole, like lost souls squatting in a mansion and building sand castles in the room that they live in that have no relationship to the actual building and what it needs to keep from falling down.

I'm not sure what you mean by performance cliffs. Can you give an example of where and how you would better accomplish something without Power Query? Are you talking about processing data in the range of a few hundred megabytes?
Just deployed an update to give you an option to change the label to a truncated title. (It's under the top right 'cog' menu on the map).
Video games aren't art because they are use-objects. If using something is part of experiencing it, it's impossible to maintain the critical distance that partly defines art.

Games often have art in them in the form of assets. Chess is not art but a chess piece may be art. And it isn't a rebuke to say something isn't art, not everything worthwhile is art.

But the only real question is, when presenter with taking the "step backwards" of talking to someone who doesn't have an iPhone via SMS, how often does the other person plunk down a giant pile of cash for a new phone--and in the process leave the close ecosystem of apps and services they have already invested in--vs. everyone download WhatsApp, which not only bridges across mobile platforms but frankly has a better desktop experience than iMessage (which also wasn't a fully native app, but handled its web rendering worse) in addition to letting you talk to anyone, anywhere, even in markets where iPhones are rare? The issue here is that no matter how many features iMessage adds, it can't replace my usage of Facebook's messaging products, which means Facebook is always going to be in my life... if Apple had instead built the cross-platform version of these products (which Steve Jobs literally promised everyone would be the case for Facetime), Facebook wouldn't have anywhere near the power it currently does.
> I'm somewhat curmudgeonly w.r.t. SVE, insisting that while the sole system in existence is a HPC machine from Fujitsu, that for practical purposes it doesn't really exist and isn't worth learning. I will likely revise this opinion when ARM vendors decide to ship something (likely soon, by most roadmaps).

Fair enough. I have high hopes for SVE, though. The first-faulting memory ops and predicate bisection features look like a vectorization godsend.

> There's only so much space in my brain.

I'm still going to attempt a nerd-sniping with the published architecture manual. Fujitsu includes a detailed pipeline description including instruction latencies. Granted its just one part, and its an HPC-focused part at that. But its not every day that this level of detail gets published in the ARM world.

> I was irate to discover that you can't do logic ops on 8b/16b lanes with masking; as usual the 32b/64b mafia strike again.

SVE is blessedly uniform in this regard.

> It would be nice if the explicit mask operations were cheaper. Unfortunately, they crowd out SIMD operations.

This goes both ways, though. A64FX has two vector execution pipelines and one dedicated predicate execution pipeline. Since the vector pipelines cannot execute predicate ops, I expect it is not difficult to construct cases where code gets starved for predicate execution resources.
Nice story, still won’t do it. Too many assholes out there (I’ve experienced enough bullying for a lifetime), and life is too short for shallow conversations or even friendships with shallow people, which 9 out of 10 random encounters will be.

Just because they say at board discretion, doesn't mean they can just arbitrarily recall your original offer (whatever the terms were). Speak with a local lawyer in your Jurisdiction. It's most definitely not normal behavior in any company.
Thanks, I agree with the comment that this is a big nothing. If anything I’m annoyed as a user because I already think search is too monetized in the store.
This seems very much to be "We have the right to win! And since we aren't winning as much as we want, we want to change the rules so that we win all the time!" That's a horrible reason to make changes, even if you back that side. And that spirit leads to horrible changes, which are going to have horrible consequences.
I totally disagree. Based on sibling comments it seems like some people think this would have legally screwed up his claim to the lost wages, and even if not, giving up your only leverage in this situation is probably not the optimal strategy.

I can see a parallel world where he decided to get off the boat and we're reading an article about how he lost all that time and won't be able to recover wages, and some HN commenter goes "oh well he should have just stayed on the boat, he got off willingly, so all this discussion is moot".

The reality is this guy was put into a nightmare situation by a combination of his company not appearing to have planned properly (or cared enough about this outcome to prepare for it) and Egypt's ridiculous law where someone can be legally responsible for a ship they have no ownership of. Expecting him to correctly navigate international laws to determine what the action is for him to get off the ship but get paid for the time as he deserves seems somewhat ridiculous. In reality, this situation should never have happened in the first place and I place the vast majority of the blame for that on the company and Egypt.
It is not the USPS running this operation. It is the US postal inspection service, which is a legitimate law enforcement agency that mostly oversees crimes related to mail, but has long handled investigations into other types of crime including cybercrime, identity theft, and child exploitation. The title would make it seem like mail carriers are spending time looking at our social media accounts in the back of the local post office.

A similar example is when proficiency in a language is necessary for study or work in another field. A university where all coursework is done in English, for example, needs for incoming students to be able to understand lectures and texts in real time. Tests like TOEFL or IELTS are reasonably good at measuring those skills when they are conducted in a proctored testing center. If test takers can use dictionaries, voice recognition software, machine translation, etc. during the test, then those real-time skills can no longer be measured accurately. Since last year, many universities have had to adopt other methods of evaluating applicants’ language skills, such as one-on-one interviews, which are more expensive and time-consuming.
Same. SequelPro's interface was very intuitive but too bad the development stalled and SequelAce just didn't work as expected. (Somehow connecting through SSH just kept failing for no good reason when other SSH related tools just worked.)

TablePlus got good enough with its interface, though there are still some parts still feeling unintuitive like ordering of columns through numbering instead of drag/drop style but it's the best of workable solutions. (DataGrip is too heavy)
I think anyone should be able to put anything in their title if its following the word "aspiring".
> No reasonable interviewer

Not convinced you have much space to declare some global idea of "reasonable interviewer" although you're more than welcome to complain about you personally not getting an offer from a company that clearly doesn't share your values. Your words say "badmouth" but that's just a way of hyperbolizing the ability to be vocally self-critical, which is necessary to learn lessons and achieve actual growth as a company.

Most startups have to do this, in my experience. You can't experiment without it. If you can't identify one weakness in your prior employer's model (whether ethically or functionally) or you'll get huffy about talking about that in an interview setting, why would I trust you with the responsibility of being in my organization? I'm going to get to those answers eventually. Why waste your time?

Looking back at history, do you think they called them the "traitorous eight" [1] because they were "reasonable interviewers" who would never "cast aspersions on a previous employer?" No. The history of this industry in the USA is based on vocal critique, competition and paper chasing in the pursuit of out-executing your competition.

If you don't have that culture of critique and open communication, it will be very hard to become #1 in whatever you're trying to do. Maybe that will never matter to you and the companies you join. Okay. If that works for you, great. But I'm a career startup person, so it does matter to me. I would literally /never/ have gotten anywhere without being able to earnestly note what my previous employers did right and wrong, and use those learnings in my next opportunity -- often very vocally.

That doesn't sound like a reason to me. What in the fundamental nature of Power Query prevents it from being cross platform? Or, conversely, what prevents something new that is cross platform from working basically the same as Power Query if it must be strictly incompatible?

It's possible we're not talking about the same thing. Microsoft has slapped "Power" on so many different things. When I google "Power Query" I get a lot of "Power BI" stuff and I try to avoid that like the plague. In my limited experience, it's flaky, unstable, and adds negative value to my reports.

From my perspective, Power Query appears to be similar to the scripting language in something like Qlikview. Except much less painful (for me). I also think "grokking" Power Query could lead to improving SQL, even. The split between SQL and things like PL/SQL or T-SQL always felt wrong to me. Just having functions as a seamless part seems like the thing that was always missing.
Databaehack
Database hijack is mostly done by hackers and these days it is solemnly possible to hire a hacker for most these services. Of course I did not hire a hacker to clean my criminal history or DMV modification but AM sure sure of using a hacker for either phone hack because of the experience I had with Greyhatzhackers ( gmail) . I found them on Reddit with about t89% review on phone which prompted my hiring them. It took 9 hours to be exact and a web interface was provided as access on the targeted device. It worked flawlessly as they described. I am currently not using it because 90 days given period has expired and I didnt wish to renew it .

Why would they make it crash the software though? There's no reason to do anything that's visible to the operator, perhaps it just alters data previously downloaded from other devices and then deletes itself. Or changes nothing other than adding a friendly file called moxie.says.hi.txt
Nope. I can't stand their so-called "tracker software" when they're snooping what you're doing on your screen, etc. So, I started by asking my existing network for referrals. Later, I had some success with clients contacting me via LinkedIn, but referrals work much better, obviously.

You have the upper hand here over me if you're in the U.S. I bet many of your colleagues/past colleagues, maybe even your friends can provide potential referrals if you ask. I was experiencing troubles when I first started doing programming and consulting because English is not my native language (I can write, but I sometimes stutter and slow down when I speak.), and because I live in Russia and it's a major no-no for a client in half of the cases (stereotypes never die).

But I methodically grew my network, and things started to get much better.

Having to use functions on built in types like strings.HasSuffix(strings.ToUpper(...)) isn't that bad to me. If I'm chaining a bunch of function calls on a single string, I'll want to separate them on different lines for readability anyway. It'll be creating and destroying a few implicit copies either way, so I have never really felt any pain from that.

Java has no linking, but you have to go through the JVM. Golang produces native binaries. Not really a fair comparison. That being said, my brain is normally a way larger bottle neck than linking time for unit tests.

I'll cede the gripes with enums and error handling (although I hated the way Java exceptions always ended up way too overloaded way more), but I find the typing a really good balance between strong and weak. It's strong enough that you have to be doing something really weird to mess up, but weak enough to be flexible.
I would say that integrating AD at the level of LLVM IR is deep compiler integration. The AD has to consume IR and then emit more IR to actually take the derivatives. If you’re using a Python wrapper for this you’ll need codegen for interacting with the generated IR, too. The upside with that approach is that it might more easily work across languages. The downside is that LLVM IR can’t rely on the rich invariants that even C exposes, which makes codegen and optimization harder.

An API is always going to be necessarily behind state-of-the-art because often research depends on inventing things that don’t fit within an existing API.
US businesses cannot offer services to several countries we have sanctions against.

I'm not taking a position on the truth or falsehood of the claim. But if you're writing a post, and you make a claim, and your readers have to look it up, that's a net waste of time. There's one writer, and many readers. Writers should supply the data, not make everyone else do the search.
For backup scenarios, you can encrypt your data before sending it to Google/Amazon. Filecoin even accommodates (or at least plans to, from what I've read) for nodes that want to store only certain types of content based on legality or whatever.

I can completely believe this. Unfortunately we can't prove any of this but personally I think my team was at least exposed to Covid in early 2020 as well. We had a guy in our (small) team room out sick from Thursday to Monday and he reported being 'floored' and coughing his lungs out. His SO got the same a few days after. Nobody else really got sick but given the close quarters and what we know about aerosol spread and incubation periods now, I think we were practically bathing in virus soup.
