It could be that the IC is just very bad at estimating schedules, so much so that they don’t realize they are falling behind. If that’s the case, some training on software estimation and how to set good milestones could pay large dividends.

Another possibility is that the environment is one in which it’s not okay to admit that schedules are slipping, despite the manager’s insistence to the contrary.

There are many more possibilities of course. Does the employee have any insights into why they failed to take the action they promised?
Lossless is MEANINGLESS because Bluetooth audio itself is a lossy compressed stream. How are Apple going to market lossless streaming to Airpods, when such a thing is technically impossible?
I think _experiencing_ audio is mostly subjective anyway, and that these discussions are all equally worthless because of it.
No no no. Fauci is working with Gates, the Reptilians, and the child molesting secret society pizza eaters to implant micro chips in people to convince them that birds are real.
As a peer and/or lead I've found a process that should help with this. Unfortunately you rarely get a boss who will fire someone (layoffs are another story) and so the most you can do is slowly take away their responsibilities and give them to someone else. Effectively, ghosting them.

Essentially you build tools that help avoid some of the problems you're seeing, and slowly ratchet up from beta test to mandatory as the tool becomes more reliable. At the end if the problem person refuses to use the tool, then you have a clear HR problem.

The people who make mistakes aren't your enemy. The people who make mistakes and insist they don't need help are the enemy.
I've seen the same effect on actual LED screens in-front of me running synchronous content. So, a camera was not involved. This is why I ask becuase I've always wondered what might be causing this.

It makes me wonder that when the next pandemic comes, will we do all of this again? 15 days to flatten the curve, but most restrictions and precautions put in place are still in effect over a year later. How willing will we be to change course when better data comes to light?
Knowing the world disagrees with me but still trying to argue what I feel is a righteous point,..,. it wasn't one man but two brothers that were able to manipulate the silver market. Google "Hunt brothers silver" or "Silver thursday". That was a while ago but somehow, I feel the arrogance of youth has pushed down the wisdom of the aged in matters of great social importance. The sad thing is we oldies have seen this before, in the slogans of "Greed is Good" and "Lifestyles of the KrashDashian Jersey Shore's", "Mike Hunt".

Personally I tend to agree, there is no value in contrived currency but when powerful individuals seek to influence the masses...perception of value, be that of commodities or populations can be manipulated.

As this is an old post and my response should survive the mob's backlash, I would ask anyone reading this to reply with other examples of contrived value in todays society.

The earliest I've seen this trick was in Far Manager [1], back when it was a commercial software.

Made by Eugene Roshal, the author of RAR format and WinRar, Far Manager distribution included a text file in Russian that explained how a comrade can do a full unlock in 2 easy steps. Don't know if it helped with sales, but I don't think it actually solved the cracking problem, because Roshal ended up open sourcing it despite of it having a very sizeable following.

I have built a few open-source projects. I choose to make it open source because it is more useful than not being open source. However, currently I only manage them by myself, and they are only active when I am choosing to work on them. But if someone else is interested, you can join too. (Currently, the one I am working on mainly is the puzzle game engine called Free Hero Mesh.)

I think DRL know this and are looking to move to in-person as soon as they can, the article just focuses on their "cloud" move during the pandemic since that's what's what was interesting to the video production audience.

The DRL Simulator is also... not great, even among drone simulators, so I suspect pilots who have been practicing in real life will appreciate the move back to real life as well.

What makes you think anyone involved will experience any consequences here? Do you think that Russia is going to help some US municipality identify and then extradite these "ransomware pushers"? And the fact that a local police department has surplus military gear doesn't even mean that they can use in in the next town over, let alone an ocean away. The "hackers" are about as safe as can be.

Now if international relations completely flipflopped and it suddenly became Putin's prerogative to cooperate with the West, then they'd be in trouble. But the odds of that happening any time soon are basically zero.

-server at a restaurant crappy bosses, crappy work environment, many awful interactions with customers, terrible pay, 0 benefits

-full time auto body painter - hard work, mixing chemicals all day can be extremely dangerous to lungs, pay was low but I enjoyed it

-sales @ verizon decent pay, hostile regional manager, constant push to improve sales and sell more data plans(few years ago), quite stressful in general as the 2008 crash destroyed our sales and few months later i was laid off

-installing siding lasted one day, turns out I hate heights and people that work at this company had little to no care about safety

-machine operator at a manufacturing company, one of the crappiest things I have done, brain numbing 8-4, awful on the body, after injury I was unable to lift heavy so went on disability for a while

-software dev stimulates my mind and I learn new stuff, pays the most, my work environment is decent and I have been remote for over a year, boss respects me and company is very flexible. Best job in my life.

No, almost all FPV pilots fly in 2D. Adding two cameras to an analog FPV setup would be trivial, but stereoscopic goggles are fairly non-existent, you'd have to try to produce a pipeline to get video into stereoscopic VR goggles without increasing latency to an unusable level - a very hard problem, really!

With that said, I fly a lot of FPV (planes and wings) and I've never felt wanting for true stereoscopic 3D. I have flown a simulator on Oculus goggles in stereo and the experience wasn't that different - I think there's enough movement / visual cue that your brain is good at interpolating the 3D aspects anyway.
Now imagine storing it in FLAC and playing them everywhere, without having to transcode at all.
The streaming service is Apple TV+ while the App is TV and the device is called Apple TV.
man I second this notion. IT can suck the life out of you in some jobs, other jobs are simply joyous, and one situation can turn into another just by the luck of some random hire who now sits above you in the pecking order.

For folks who want to "tune out" for a bit, getting a non IT job can do it, but we do get used to the pay and I know each time for me, the paycut is "noticeable" to say the least. For me, getting/being a roomie helped loads with the money.

Software is beautiful and dancing with complexity ranks amongst some of my favorite experiences, its the people, man, especially the bosses, I've had both treasured mentors and terrible monsters and it seems to be completely random and ever changing. Its never killed my affection for the art of computer programming tho, everytime I've taken time off from IT, I've started my own programming project or two, and pretend I'm more talented than I am, because honestly computers to me are like the greatest toy ever!

I wish everyone the best of luck!
It depends a lot how you're getting it and what you're doing with it. The existence of projects like rapidjson, simdjson, … indicates that even without GTAV-style mistakes, JSON enc/dec can absolutely be your limiting factor. Even more so if you're on a local network (e.g. between machines in the same DC) where bandwidth is… essentally infinite, for all intents and purposes? When you've got 10Gb/s or even 100Gb/s between your racks, odds are IO is only the limiting factor for very short messages (lots of framing overhead).

As for XML, it's an absolute bear to encode and decode, documents are often large (dozens, hundreds, even thousands of GB), and the format is complicated enough that writing truly fast parsers is difficult. Being CPU-bound when XML is involved is routine, especially if you need a DOM.

I believe it cycles through.

In earlier days of Windows 10, I had an ANSI keyboard for desktop and JP106 for laptop, so I had to have en_US and ja_JP on desktop while laptop had to have en_JP and ja_JP.

Each time Settings syncs it would subtly add missing one to the cycling but would not update the language list, so I had to keep adding and removing the other one from Settings for a while. Later they added toggles to stop syncing keyboards.
I think it's a cool concept and have been following it for a while, but it's worth noting that they started pushing the stimulator before, not after, the pandemic started. I think maybe to create a feeder league or something?
I buy FLAC so that I can easily convert my music to other formats without making 2nd generation lossy copies. Being able to convert my entire library to AAC, pre-apply my ReplayGain data, and shove it on to my iPhone is real handy.

This just seems like a waste of bandwidth for streaming though.

Wow, Apple catering to the audiophiles with loseless audio. There goes the entire value proposition of Tidal.

I also thought the same, then I went to listen some orchestral performance at the Rome Auditorium.

During an interval I was sitting in a shitty corner up on some balcony, pretty far; but I could hear the voice and discern the words of a girl chatting down in the platea next to an entrance.

A single mouth, chatting, among hundreds other voices.

During the concert you could hear the individual performers’ instruments, the strings rubbing, the valves clicking. I was blown away
Chinese propaganda is just so... Tone deaf. Give me a couple million dollars and a couple interns and I'm pretty sure I could do better than any of its existing organs. This isn't a particularly high bar: you could probably do better just by doing nothing.

I'm the same, I can't really come up with any realistic vehicle accident scenario that would be a classic trolley problem. I may just be lacking in imagination though. I'd be interested if anyone could present a realistic example of such a scenario, and one that isn't wildly unlikely ever to happen.

Something that does occur to me is that since humans tend to just automatically react in extreme situations whereas an AI would presumably have precious milliseconds to consider different scenarios, maybe an AI could create a trolley problem where it wouldn't exist for a human.

For example, if someone steps out from behind a bus a human will most likely slam the brakes on instantly and will likely slide into the pedestrian at a slower but possibly still fatal pace; whereas an AI having a bit of time to think calmly about it might slam the car hard into the bus whilst also braking, which might slow the car down enough to prevent too much injury to the pedestrian whilst causing damage to the bus, writing off the car, and possibly injuring the occupant (though the car safety features should help).
This is true, I didn't mean to suggest there weren't good exceptions. Although instead of starting from scratch sometimes reassigning crew will uncover unknown strengths and weaknesses.

Personal example of this, an old foreman I knew on a job, had a boss who didn't understand that people had strengths, so as an example he would routinely swap people into tasks that emphasized their weakness to prove it.

Additionally, this allowed people who didnt do X job because they didn't have the confidence or skill, to actually get a little extra experience as well

They'll pay for it, anyway, $1.6bi. I'm pretty sure that there's a way to spend $1.6bi to make GPUs and sell it in the long-tail consumer spectrum without bitting your sales. And create the desire, on those users, to upgrade to a better GPU in the future.

Or don't even make money about it, just ensure that your competitors will have to lose money too.

This seems obvious to me as the wealthy have ways of shielding their wealth through investment that will inflate along with the general price level.

I have a new theory that the difference between 1970s style inflation in the US and what we would see today is that the main thing that would be inflated would be stock valuations, which also favor the wealthy. As recently as the 90s [0], slightly more than 30% of Americans owned stocks, while now that number is over 50%. I couldn't find data going back earlier , but I wouldn't be surprised if only 10% of Americans owned stocks in the 1970s. This was before ETFs and the E-Trade revolution.

In the 1970s if people saw a windfall they would likely buy more consumer goods, driving up the prices. But now they will likely just but financial assets, everything from Bitcoin to GameStop to ETFs. So we're seeing inflation in asset prices, but we don't consider that inflation since its associated with a booming healthy economy.

It's unfortunate that the Fed officials don't see run-away asset price inflation as a consequence of growth in the monetary base

The Truth About Income Inequality
Let me repeat. If treatment brings in more profit than cure, and you and your competitors have a treatment, then it is in none of your interests to bring out the cure, since anyone who does it would reduce their own profit besides killing that of their competitors.

There is no "global conspiracy" required at all. Not actively doing research towards reducing your own profit is enough.

Outsiders could theoretically come in, yes. But the hurdles are huge for biotech startups, and of course the established players are lobbying to keep it this way, so I won't be holding my breath. It's different from the tech world.

Only way to look at management is that you are there to support. You are there to provide a best possible environment where an employee can express themselves. Employee only needs one other thing from management - "What is the expectation". If expectations are set right and communicated well and reiterated frequently, you are set up for success.
Such agreements are common in Switzerland, for example. I'm in the US where you can imagine it's harder for a US company to make the math work due to ponying up for health care costs per salaried employee. Anyone care to weigh in from companies where this is commonplace?

It's hard to generalize, sometimes the issue is the boss, sometimes it's the employee and often it's both.

Managers need to understand that the goal is not and should not be 'employee performed this task exactly how I would have'. Especially if the differences aren't material. But so I often I see managers kill initiative by focusing on stylistic or minor issues. If you want it done exactly your way, do it yourself or hire a clone.
Not sure how anyone is surprised by this.

It's been proven that Russian influence peddling is well funded and active, even if its effect is hotly debated since Republicans pretend its negligible, while Democrats act like it's the only reason Trump won 2016.

It was just a matter of time before other foreign actors saw what's possible and decided it's a better use of their funds to influence American politics rather than expensive arms races or insurgencies.

Why spend a few billion on nuclear programs and arming militias when you can instead spend a few million on troll farms and push your agenda forward more effectively?

Apple aren't marketing lossless streaming to AirPods.

There are lots of hardwired devices ready to playback in hi-res via phone or Mac, surely. And AirPods Max support spatial audio already and are apparently good quality.

I would expect the future of the H1 chip's audio streaming quality to soon be much better than Bluetooth.
I suppose that's lowering your carbon footprint in a sense of the word, but only because you've pushed the carbon production onto someone else (ie, those people are still out there in the world.)

I'm also not very convinced on the premise. Unless you're doing something fairly specialized (scientific modeling, compiling) or your software is unduly bloated (which a lot of software is, but that is its own problem), the difference in speed really shouldn't add up to that much.

Indian propaganda is similar (I'm more familiar with it, being Indian).

You can see the parallels in how both talk about their hated minorities (Uyghurs and Kashmiris/Muslims)

My favorite was a recent Twitter account with a teenage profile picture, she/they pronouns, BLM, proud feminist, and TRUMP2020 all in the bio, and all it did was claim that Uyghurs are really being educated and that the decline in birth rates among Uyghurs by ~50% in one year, according to Chinese gov't statistics is just because they are being liberated, and basically all sorts of other genocide denial.
