Sigh. A lie, around the world, yada yada. Per the NTSB report, autopilot couldn't be engaged on that road, and the driver was seen on his home security video entering the driver seat just 550 feet from the crash site. As everyone knowledgeable was screaming at the time, that just wasn't an autopilot accident. It got spun that way because one firefighter on scene decided (incorrectly) that "no one was driving the car".
This looks awesome, hopeful for the future where they have AMD CPU options as well.
Yeah but they arent though. 350-400k is actually somewhat low for senior. They have been paying this for a long time. Its great money remote. I really dont understand the issue
So how do you distinguish between faux "experts" and actual experts?

Do you believe that people who write (long form articles, books) about a subject have nothing useful to say?
Now here is an application where the GPT stuff can really shine, which is trying to convince people that aren't domain experts that something is speaking from authority, even if the reader doesn't intend to get anything meaningful from the material either way.
Finally! Cool API stuff aside, this could make an excellent use case for a content back-end to your Jam-apps or quick little apps.

For example, Vercel reverse-engineered the internal API and made a super awesome demo here when introducing "Serverless Pre-Rendering". [1]

There's a video demo and code of how they did it.

There are many different sorts of handcuffs. Mine was a lucrative defined benefit retirement plan. My (former) company eliminated the plan about 30 years ago, but grandfathered everyone who was still in the plan. About two years before I was eligible to retire (early), they changed things again and made it impossible to continue contributing to the plan. They offered a temporarily higher match to 401k contributions as compensation. (For the $200k I lost, I got about $20k back.) Eliminating further contributions meant I could no longer increase my retirement payout. Converting the annuity to lump sum (the obvious choice) meant that my lump sum payout would be reduced every day that I continued working there. The net effect was about a 12% reduction in pay. I took the early retirement as soon as allowed, and then took a job elsewhere for a 15% raise.

(The reason for the 12% reduction may not be obvious. When converting an annuity, they look at actuaries to estimate when I will die. The lump sum payout converts the annuity payments from the retirement date to the date of my death into one payment, distributed over five years. If I work longer, the time between my retirement and my death decreases. Thus the longer I work without retiring, the lower the payout.)

My golden handcuffs were changed into a golden kick in the arse.
This is the kind of post where you really wonder if programmers even remember what it was like before they started programming. Concurrency is a legitimately difficult concept to understand and use correctly. In addition, I doubt you need concurrency in game design for a beginner project, or if you do, it's totally abstracted away by the game engine you're using to "learn".
That was a weird read.

For instance:

> Under the assumptions of our Fremen Mirage, we ought to expect farming societies to be frequently overtaken and subjugated by their non-farming neighbors

Isn’t it basically the Vikings crushing their neighboors to get fertile territories ? That’s also France’s whole history, getting overrun in waves of invasions, backing up what he calls the “mirage” that is supposed to get debunked.

PS: in economic terms the counterpoint to his theory would be the resource curse, so it’s not a foreign to us concept either
Expound on how you may take advantage of it.
Oh, not for us. I think we dropped support in like 2012 our 13 ish and our clients lost their shit. So many of them would cite the fact that they had special activex plugins installed into IE which made them more "secure".

Dropping 8 was a lot easier to do and we probably could ditch 11 today without a fuss. But man were our clients attached to 6, it was nuts.
> Distributed immutable ledger is astonishingly relevant in a variety of security and financial (and financial security) areas

I'm not so sure about that. IANAL, but I suspect that, at least under US law, a distributed immutable ledger would actually be illegal in many cases. The entire legal environment is set up around the idea that there is a system of record, and that system of record has a single custodian, and that custodian is not just responsible for tending to it, but also someone to whom you can appeal (or sue) for remediation if something goes wrong.

The immutable bit is also often incompatible. There are laws and contracts out there laying out cases where data needs to be deleted - not reverted, not being flagged as no longer relevant, actually deleted - from the record. In the US, the Fair Credit Reporting Act is probably the most familiar example, but there are others.

Yes, we can say that it hasn't taken off because people just don't understand it because it's a complex technical topic. But we should also consider the possibility that the business environment in which we are trying to ininuate ourselves is a complex technical topic, too. And also watch out for Chesterton's Fence.
This also applies to open source projects on GitHub.
On easy, 7 correct and 0 wrong was enough to tell me that yes, I can (I have been reading Nature for years though).
I would be wary of promoting Repl.it if you're going to include Vim users. Vim keybindings exist in per-project Settings but don't work. Otherwise, great free books.
We're splitting hairs. You prefer the traditional German interior design, she doesn't and she's not alone.
Yeah we're giving women more power. GOOD.

I don't get this worldview at all. It's a power play to try to combat the centuries of discrimination against women, sexism, racism, and more?

Fair, but anyone who pays me $5M and wants a powershell script gets one, and an air freshener of their choice.
When I initially signed up for Notion, I did so thinking the API was already usable. It was used as a selling point for their premium service even though it wasn't implemented. This was a year and a half ago or so.

I felt pretty burned by it and killed my subscription. Hopefully this turns out well for the people who've been waiting for it, but that experience left a terrible taste in my mouth.

This is quite the assumption on your part. We won’t know if aliens eating your face is realistic until we encounter aliens.
I find #2 and #3 more relevant the higher you move in the hierarchy. For #3, to me it's about how well you can move up levels of abstraction: If you are working on features, can you develop a product-level view? If you are working on products, can you develop a portfolio-level view? A company-level view? Each level up has less to do with engineering and more to do with finances, marketing, company resources, and cross team collaboration than before. It's not easy to see two levels above you. However, relating to point #2 in the article, you have to show that you are able to think and work at the level above you if you want to be promoted. If you have tunnel vision and can't expand your point of view to encompass the larger picture, you're not going to be promoted. This assumes that we are talking about promotions that include more responsibility as opposed to merely a change in title or more salary.
You could set up a Zapier integration with Ghost (ghost.org). Use Zapier to publish every Mailchimp newsletter as a Ghost article maybe? Hope I helped.
It's nice to see this happening at last!

This is a promising start, but so far it's read & append it looks like -- no updating (of blocks at least).

Updating page properties can take it a way, but looking forward to seeing it expand a little.

I wish her a lot of luck. It took me years to get things bearable. And there's a long way to go.

There's others, but garlic and onion are two of my triggers, and it's amazing how much food uses one or both.

I've also found that there's a sort of buildup effect with me. If I have certain foods two days in a row, or more than x times a week it can cause issues.

All that means it's quite hard to pin it down.

Did Amazon return to back-weighted comp? The offer I received two years ago had comp that shifted from "cash focused" to RSUs over 4 years, and had equivalent cash value over the 4 years. Obviously, by year 3/4 when comp was mostly/all RSUs, the stock could have gone up or down significantly.

Given that the year 1 cash could be used to buy stock if I really wanted, it didn't seem an unreasonable approach to comp to me.
This may be true today, but it is a lot easier to build a silly image filter app now than it was 10 years ago. If the incentives remain skewed in favor of "highly distributed but small value" contributions to society while the difficulty of making such contributions also decreases we may, in fact, see a shortage of nurses.
Huh? So now handcuffs with no gold?

This is much worse for start up employees - as grants each year allow for even more dilution, management hand wringing, and changed expectations. Do founders stock get magically taken away when they suck at being a CEO? When deadlines are missed? Generally they just get moved to the board.

The commitment you receive from your employees is HUGE. They show up 40+ hours a week, and bet their entire family and time on your company. Stop acting like somehow paying them even 0.1% as well as your founder is somehow a "bad marriage".

If they're pulling down the team, fire them. If you're afraid they're making too much money and may quit / retire - why are you in capitalism at all? Ownership is supposed to provide benefits.

The brazen attitude towards those that actually build your ivory tower is incredible.
I really appreciate the response. Thanks!
After reading the article, I can't help but feel that high speed rail is not:

. An optimal solution to a problem or

. A sexy solution looking for a problem

but that it's an integral part of an entire society and lifestyle that some people want to embrace. Serious people-mover rail seems to be an organic part of some countries that are different in 100 (1000? 10,000?) different ways that people would like to emulate

The arguments about serious modern rail investment look to be proxy arguments.
It's got nothing to do commercialisation. It's illegal in well over half the countries in the world, so issues are legal and logistical. And it's going to a bit hard to persuade, say, the UAE that it should be added to the list. Just because research seems to strongly suggest it (or more specifically derivatives of) can be very helpful for certain conditions doesn't mean it's going on a list of critical medicines that have to always have a large global supply available anytime soon.
I’d argue that the new German interior designs are anything but traditional.

I think the new fonts and colors are a change they really needed. And the fact the logo is out of a "bubble" feels nice to me. But the logo could be a little more squared to feel condensed. Maybe it just takes time to get used to them.

If you think IE11 supports "vanilla, bare-metal" JavaScript or CSS you are going to have a bad time. In fact, if you are building a very simple website most of your code complexity will come from having to support legacy browsers and working around their quirks.
Working for the government can be more meaningful than selling to companies available human brain time for example. Also, working remotely is not for everyone or possible in every company.

I wouldn't consider an education to be capital. It produces no value without you doing work, whereas capital produces value through others' work.
> Then they land a ship on a planet with a gravity well so intense that it causes big relative time differences

Pedantically, no, they don’t.

They land on a planet deep enough in a black hole’s gravity well to cause significant relative time differences.

(Obviously, this doesn’t change the issue of delta-V to get back to the mother ship, though the difference is relevant to your “the gravity alone should have killed them” comment, since that would only occur of there was a hard surface not in free fall with respect to the gravity well for them to be crushed into.)

> Then they blast off with the same ship and no big clunky chemical rocket stages. Why didn't this ship just blast off of Earth as is?

Maybe because the super drive it uses would have adverse environmental impacts used in Earth’s atmosphere, and Earth has enough of that to deal with, but they cut the exposition-that-doesn’t move-the-plot-forward about that because they were making a movie, not a technical report on the mission’s decisionmaking.
I didn't expect it to be automatic!
That data is from 2 years ago. Lower down in the post it has an update for the present:

> What this new decision reinforces, to me, is that Musk is able to admit a mistake and do a 180. That is very good.

That's a very generous interpretation of the situation considering not too long ago Musk was a very vocal defender of BC allegedly using 70% renewable energy and thus being very green.

I doubt Musk would make these kinds of investments and commitments based on half-arsed understanding what's going on, the much more likely explanation is that he uses his social media reach to play pump and dump games with cryptocurrencies.
seems that for IE11 alone it's 1.8%
My general rule of thumb is that if the new comp arrangement isn't better in an obvious, predictable way, then it probably isn't better for the employee.

I think it would be good for Fred or Coinbase comp team to provide the expected payoff calculations for various kinds of employees under this new scheme - the hard numbers and probabilities (even optimistic ones) would be what convince me.
Basically this lets the employer retain more of the upside in stock appreciation - your equity bonus is now recomputed every year at the current stock price, and presumably expressed in dollars (not shares). So they'll say "oh you're getting 50k this year in stock", when you got 40k last year, but meanwhile the share price has doubled and your 40k in equity _would_ be worth 80k if they had given you all 4 years up front.

They say it protects against downside, but odds are if the company isn't doing well they'll cut the dollar value of annual bonuses as well.
And has stayed relatively up to date. That was the biggest PITA with IE is that it would be years behind other browsers in what APIs it supported and you needed a big painful update to the next major version to get new stuff.

IMO, MS has really mismanaged the IE product. The fact that there is now a legacy edge is really silly, why did they fork that instead of just making one of the version upgrades be a "Ok, this is a new change to the rendering engine which is fairly major".

Their aversion to making anyone unhappy is just silly. Chrome and Firefox have done a much better job with major rendering/js engine upgrades saying "Sorry some things are busted now, get use to it".
> How about the hundreds of millions of third-world users with grossly outdated Android phones? How about disabled people in middle-income countries who can't afford to upgrade their screen reader?

None of these are Internet Explorer, the problem in question. Chrome and its Play Store dependencies are backwards compatible to much older phones. Android browsers even years ago had better web platform support than IE11.

I fully sympathize and believe that web sites should be as compatible as possible. It's the web apps that fall apart once you take away modern functionality.

> In the past, using a crappy browser was a matter of choice. Nowadays, the only people who use them are those who have no other choice.

This really depends on how much their actual lives depend on being able to use the web. If they live in poverty and/or third world countries, are their daily lives impacted by the web? What part of their life depends on what site exactly? Sure, communication is relevant, but we're already saying they have smart phones and thus data connections, email, and whatever native chat apps.

I'm not saying we should leave them behind technologically or that they don't matter or shouldn't have access to more information or knowledge, I'm just simply being practical with what is likely the real impact to their life.

In the end, I think web developers need to stop using ridiculous frontend tech for what ultimately constitutes static text content. The web already excels at that. Servers cache. Browsers cache. We don't need Vue to render a blog or article. Please leave such tech for SPAs and "apps" rather than sites or pages.
From what I've seen there isn't enough research to know for certain. There is correlation with the issues mentioned in the article but I don't think any research has confirmed the pathway for negative effects or the doses necessary to cause them.
I used to work in IT at a Fortune 100 manufacturing company. IE versions hung around for a long time because there was a lot of software that was built with only IE in mind and only received the bare minimum of support.

In some cases this was off the shelf software from vendors who had gone out of business. In other cases it was software built in house that would require a complete rewrite to modernize.

All of this software was tightly integrated into processes that were critical for the company to operate. While the cost of replacing the old software was a consideration, the biggest concern was the potential disruption to operations.

If a software change reduced productivity or even worse caused work to stop entirely, it meant millions in financial impact.
I'm curious if the trained model is available. It would be very fun to play with.
Bluehost Deals
Seems extremely limited as an API, wondering what people can actually use this for.

For example markdown support for read/write would make it much easier to use it as CMS or sync the data, instead of working on the custom block types.

Isopropyl alcohol would do it. Extremely unlikely to do any damage, but try on one first just in case. Use cotton pads.

Yeah, I understand. The clients of mine I'm thinking of are small, non-technical companies. They would absolute love something like this, but they're just not developing and redoing stuff as much as they'd need to justify this expense (in their minds).

exactly, this is not the reinforcement you want to give the big tech - putting fines for the actually useful stuff using crappy antitrust arguments? Come on.

This will just encourage them to kill all the genuinely useful stuff they do because honestly their legal teams can't spend hours vetting all of these small features and apps which provide immense value to certain subsets of users. And for what ? The shitty JuicePass app with under 2.5 rating.
