That was probably the last time the Facebook code was ever sane and readable.
I believe it- there's always people doing stupid things-, I just don't have any first or second hand experience of it, just hearsay. So I can't say how common it is.

Also, as I kid I was dissuaded and scolded for playing with many things- nothing really worked, I still had great fun with fire and live 220V cables :).
What happens to all of the people who are too mentally unstable to live in a hotel/SRO/shelter?
Been using this library in one of my toy projects and have been fairly satisfied.

One caveat that bugs me is that it's not well documented/counterintuitive how its internals work with regards to order of transformations so I often have to do a bit of trial and error.
>> no wonder the current PTB are attacking crypto with every angle they can think of

Whoa there mate, that's pure hyperbole - straight up FUD.

If the government wanted to they could outlaw possession of cryptos - that would be attacking it. They have instead just wanted to levy taxes on it the same as all other 'investments' so their action very different to what you said. Can't bother to read the rest when your premise is just deceptive.
The problem with those permission prompts is that many users blindly accept them. If a “sniff all network traffic” permission were allowed, it would take all of one day before Facebook et al release an update with it and start siphoning millions of users network traffic.

Apple does not want this.
What Ive noticed about this trial is that the judge has a lot to say. Is this normal? Reading this article it sounded like she doing Epics lawyers job for them. I get that this is a sort of David(Epic) vs Goliath(Apple) and the article may be editorializing, but why is the judge asking so many questions?
I've saved a startup once from going bankrupt more or less like this.

They were paying a lot for ASP and a shitty product(cant remember the name..it was something like WebObjects) that was taking too long to load, the newly born company i was hired for would cease to exist, so even thought i was hired as a sysadmin to manage the network, linux and databases, i've used my low skills as a programmer, without nobody asking me, and designed the thing in secret, in about two or three weeks with PHP, Linux and MySql instead.

The (news based, with a lot of personalization page) loaded in about 400 milliseconds instead of what once was a 10 seconds load.

My bosses were a little skeptic at first, because the ASP folks was a team formed with university professors and skilled pros, and i was a teen that was not even hired as a coder. Also it was so much faster that they thought i could only be cheating somehow (like static instead of personalized with data from a backend db)..

Linux and open source was also faced with skepticism, specially when confronted with Microsoft stuff that everybody was used to back then.

The LAMP stack was a wonder back in those days, and it helped a lot to popularize Linux, MySQL, Apache and PHP.
I know today PHP doesn't look so cool giving all the other players, but in the context it was launched it was so much better than all the status quo of the nineties where the options were quite limited.
That would be nice for sure. I think that some people don’t get that privilege still by virtue of who they are. As a recent example that came up in my social circle, say you’re a woman in tech. It turns out that literally every single woman I know in tech has had to deal with at best unwanted propositions but more frequently outright harassment by their male coworkers. In situations like that, you can’t get away from “politics,” because the politically charged situations come to you.

And I’d much rather work in a workplace where we make it clear, publicly, that that kind of behavior is unacceptable than one where we ignore it because we don’t want to talk politics at work.
It appears to be 82% in UK and over 90% in brazil. But also Aluminium is not toxic and does not disintegrate into microscopic particles that accumulate in your organs. Unlike plastic, it can be recycled perfectly and produce a product as good as the original, so long as people are bothered to drop it into the bin. Most types of plastic are only 'downcycled' -> bottles become carpets, and carpets become garbage.

I think CO2 is a red herring when it comes to packaging, most of world GHG emissions are not from packaging production - it's energy, transport, heating, etc. If tomorrow all packaging had zero CO2 emission, we would have made no real difference.
the same thing we do to a carpenter whose door get broken into in a robbery: nothing unless they were inexcusably incompetent or complicit.

It would be possible to say that one was not hired about all groups, including White Christian men. This happens a lot but no one talks about it for some reason.

E.g. we didn’t really feel that Mr. Ciswhitechristan was a great cultural fit because we are trying to foster a diverse and equitable workplace and we need more protected groups. /s
The post that was being replied to sounds worked up about it to me. "the one that gets me...", "WHY?"
Both the Klan and Nazis are political organizations so supporting them seems pretty clearly political speech. Similar, you wouldn't be allowed to wear your Klan hood or your Bernie Sanders hat to a polling station (where political displays like that are prohibited). (Although, of course, people probably wouldn't notice the Sanders hat)
In terms of realised outcome, maybe. In terms of potential, though, the only difference between a Kiwi baby and an American baby is the fact v that the American baby is expected to fend for itself.
The article fails to mention other impacts such as damage to oil and gas pipelines, loss of tracking of large numbers of satellites, single event upsets in the same, and exposures of aircrew and travellers to higher levels of ionising radiation. It is certainly something to worry about. This testimony to the US senate by K Tobiska has more on the topic:

People walk in rural areas, too; and those roads are often not designed for it and these accidents tend to happen at night. There's a significant percentage of pedestrian deaths that happen out of the city under these circumstances.
The fish-killing is caused by an added chemical that acts as a sunscreen. It increases the UV resistance of the rubber, thus prolonging tire life. It isn't the rubber itself that is the problem, at least in that example.

Is this not a great thing? Having a walkable place with quality of life amenities is a positive thing when youre talking about somewhere you spend at least 1/3 of the day
Agreed. I've at least added a "Recommended" option in the web UI that's language-specific.

Part of the problem is that language support varies dramatically between components. There's usually a pretty obvious "best" set for English, but it gets more difficult with other languages.

Do invest time in FP, specifically the typed Haskell side of things over something like Clojure. You most likely won't end up in a position writing Haskell, or even doing FP, but you will be incorporating more and more concepts from it as the industry evolves. Typescript's widespread adoption is one telltale sign. If you can demonstrate that you're an agent of this change, you'll be an attractive candidate compared to somebody who is still regurgitating OOP design patterns. It's anecdotal, but I got my first junior position at a large company with no formal CS education because I was able to describe an algebraic data type.
> “The proximity of his workplace and his home is convenient, but there is a serious political motivation underlying it, too. When Steidl was a teen-ager, he spent several weeks volunteering at Auschwitz, clearing paths for visitors and sleeping in a former barracks. His father had served in the German Army, and Steidl participated in a program that had been established, he said, to show young Germans “what the parents had done. The experience helped him confront ‘the dark side of Germany.’ One thing that he contemplated was the ethics of separating one’s work from one’s domestic life. ‘I read about how the homes of the officers were outside the concentration camp, where they had a wife and children, and a little dog, and they were the nicest people you can expect,’ he told me. ‘And then they were going to work—they were shooting and murdering and sending people to death. So I also thought that it makes a huge difference when you are not isolated from your work, when working and living is a symbiosis. Normally, when you have a business and you produce something industrial, you have the plant somewhere and it makes a lot of dirt, and poison, and noise, and destroys the environment. You are working there all day, and then in the evening you drive home and you have your pleasant place to stay, with clean air, while poor people have to live with the dirt you are producing. I control my noise, because I am sleeping there, with an open window, every night.’”

2k of those 6k pedestrian deaths had alcohol in their system. Surely a train is a safer place for them.
This isn't true, you just get a lawsuit at your doorstep.
There's often a thin line. A lot of these influencers end up peddling products or services of their own- after achieving fame, it's best to diversify one's business. And the online persona do at the very least provide a service to the public: entertainment.
But every one of those officers doing something bad every day has an entire department and union behind them that are very aware that that officer is bad. What do they do? They protect him. Every time. They are just as culpable. This is why the saying a few bad apples spoils the bunch exists.
>>Gogoro’s move can be seen as a response to Swappable Battery Consortium for Electric Motorcycles. The consortium was announced in 2019 by four leading Japanese companies in the motorcycle industry: Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha.

Hmm .
Internalizing the externalities via taxation is very much a free market approach.
Here's Christopher Hitchens in his 2001 book, Letters to a Young Contrarian:

>Beware of Identity politics. I'll rephrase that: have nothing to do with identity politics. I remember very well the first time I heard the saying "The Personal Is Political". It began as a sort of reaction to defeats and downturns that followed 1968: a consolation prize, as you might say, for people who had missed that year. I knew in my bones that a truly Bad Idea had entered the discourse. Nor was I wrong. People began to stand up at meetings and orate about how they 'felt', not about what or how they thought, and about who they were rather than what (if anything) they had done or stood for. It became the replication in even less interesting form of the narcissism of the small difference, because each identity group begat its sub-groups and "specificities". This tendency has often been satirised—the overweight caucus of the Cherokee transgender disabled lesbian faction demands a hearing on its needs—but never satirised enough. You have to have seen it really happen. From a way of being radical it very swiftly became a way of being reactionary; the Clarence Thomas hearings demonstrated this to all but the most dense and boring and selfish, but then, it was the dense and boring and selfish who had always seen identity politics as their big chance.
Anyway, what you swiftly realise if you peek over the wall of your own immediate neighbourhood or environment, and travel beyond it, is, first, that we have a huge surplus of people who wouldn't change anything about the way they were born, or the group they were born into, but second that "humanity" (and the idea of change) is best represented by those who have the wit not to think, or should I say feel, in this way.
This is completely disingenuous. They correctly assert that there's no evidence it was deliberately leaked or engineered, but the question at hand is if it was leaked by accident after having been collected in nature. There's no way to determine that by studying the nature of virus itself. You'd have to study the lab itself and it's environs.
Just make sure you don't embed any non CC'd youtube videos.

Dont be a smart ass if you really need a job.

In my early twenties, IT sales job. I bragged about building computers for my friends and close family, interviewer straight up asked me if I would stop doing that and just send people to company store instead. Left because I couldnt stop laughing.

I installed servers and implemented some office software solution at a medium sized non engineering company. They asked if I wanted a full time job. Next thing I know managed rolls out a genuine whiteboard (something you didnt see at all at the time in my country) and wants to do brain teasers with me :o. I said no thank you and left, they hired someone who aced quizzes instead. I got a call half a year later when nothing worked anymore, ended up doing contract work at ridiculous (for me) rate for a while. Wasnt the best atmosphere, you could cut air with a knife.

Much later in my carrier. Was asked to expand few industry acronyms/abbreviations from the top of my head without googling. Not the meaning, exact wording, apparently super important for a technical position at that company. Couldnt remember what ro in rohs stood for, which made interviewing engineer very happy. So in return I pointed at random pcb laying round and asked if he knew what 94V-0 meant. That was that, in retrospect Im glad I didnt get that job :).

From my experience most of the time people skills > technical skills.
I plan to add Vosk support soon.

The goal of voice2json is to provide a common layer on top of existing open source engines. This common layer lets you train custom speech/intent models with having to know the details of each engine.
It def started mine. The biggest for me was the excellent documentation and comments as you said. The comments were like an early version of stackoverflow

Perhaps.. but we'll have to see how the battery holds up under extremely hot or cold conditions to really know if it will be used that way; and few people will want to be stuck at the job site after the end of the day.

It's 'very true' and 'BS' at the same time.

There are some very sketchy urban places in the US with legit serious security problems.

There are vast burbs in the US which are actually really safe but have anxious, overzealous citizens.
The kids don't know it is "geared towards one group", they choose it on their own. As a father of a daughter, like myself, you should be well aware of how this typically works.
Sorry to break this to you, but there are real genetic differences in behavior and impulse control. I know it's not popular to notice now, but in 100 years it will be common knowledge, just like it was 100 years ago.
It seems to me that past societies would have a very good understanding about the idea that one's time could belong to your employer as many of them were (and some had) full-time live-in servants, or season-long farm labor contracts for landless laborers, or serfdom/rent situations with a duty to work x days/season to cultivate the landlord's land instead of theirs, or indentured servitude or even slavery, or any other such relationships. Before industrial age it might be weird for the time of a free middle-class man to belong to an employer, but there weren't that many such men.

That makes me worry about it acting as an invasive.
From other threads, one might conclude that animal accidents in rural areas inspire some apprehension about wedge-profiled designs. In USA, 1m out of the 6m auto accidents each year involve one car and one animal, with a human death rate of 200 per year.
This isn't some new phenomenon. It happened when the USSR detonated their first nuclear device. And it'll be hashed over again for disinformation and everything else.

"How is this war different from that war?" "How do we handle attribution?" "How do we monitor pre-emptively and deter?"

Bioterrorism is the big worry -- no other disaster grows, much less at exponential scale.
This doesn't mean that bitcoin is self-referential. It means the consensus model encompasses more information than purely the length of the chain. But that should be obviously true; there have been countless hard forks like BCH and yet we still follow the chain we all call BTC.

The problem with hard forks in the PoS world is that you cannot judge the health of each chain by some external factor.
I mean if we're talking personally, the end of my rope is insurrection. I would not tolerate sympathies towards the events of January 6th. If my manager or other senior staff began expressing them I would have to voice my thoughts on the subject and begin sending resumes.

The idea that both sides are equal is just fallacious. One side is advocating to be more aware of systematic racism and the other tried to incite revolt while rejecting the validity of our last election. One is advocating for a large discussion and the other is working against democracy.
Lack of violence doesn’t necessarily mean a just peaceful coexistence. It sometimes means that one side in a multiethnic state has such overwhelming force that the other ethnicities, though they suffer injustice, try to avoid rocking the boat lest they become targets of violence. This is certainly the case with the Christians of the Levant, who had to accept various restrictions that were not imposed on the Muslim population (e.g. restrictions on symbolism displayed on the outside of places of worship, the prohibition of accepting converts), in order to avoid sparking sectarian conflict.
Looks like apple is using nvme as an infinity swap. This helps explain how 8GB feels enough and will probably be cause of future pain when those chips begin to wear out.
It's always the poor people who get screwed by such policies. People who can afford it move to safe suburbs while the poor people are left in the shitty neighborhoods. I don't mind policies that encourage being soft on low crimes, but you cannot let those people walk free and keep that behavior. You need to invest in rehabilitation and eventually jail those who keep committing crimes.
> must be forced to make parts and schematics available to any independent repair shop, just like car makers have to do

The only reason this has been possible for car makers until now is because the technology to stop it didn’t exist. But it does now, and car makers are definitely moving in the direction of “lock down”. You already can’t replace wireless key fobs, and entertainment head units are locked down. Repair manuals are locked behind a monthly subscription web site, and the third-parties who used to publish their manuals are giving up. John Deere is infamous for taking it to the next level with farm equipment. The way things are going in the auto industry, as soon as it’s possible to technically enforce the use of “genuine” crank shafts and head gaskets, they will not hesitate to do so.
Don't refer to Java as "lower level language" in an interview.

With so much demand for programmers you can probably get your foot in the door with a PhD and some code samples, if you can get through the interview process. Not every company does the grueling whiteboard coding and puzzle interviews.

The best way to get a job as I've answered here x^N times is through people you know. If you approach getting a job by filling out online applications you are playing a lottery and competing with thousands of other applicants. Your application will get screened by keyword-matching software and maybe looked at by HR staff. Better to go around that process through contacts. Ask everyone you know about jobs where they work, and make a point of meeting more people in the business by going to meetups, tech talks, etc. You probably have a lot of contacts from school, talk to them.

At this point in your career I would suggest getting fairly deep with one combination of language, frameworks, tools that are most widely used: JS/Node/React, PHP/Laravel, Python/Django/ML, Java/*, etc. It's good to learn other languages but the market for Haskell and Clojure (for example) is much smaller and the people going for those jobs will almost certainly have significant real-world experience. I have recommended learning SQL and C as foundational skills, I think you will need to understand databases. You don't need to know C at this point (that's a real low-level language). If you plan to get into web development there's no way around learning HTML, CSS, and at least the basics of the HTTP protocol.

You will have to know version control (git) and at least the agile buzzwords pretty much anywhere you go. It helps to know your way around the Unix/Linux shell (command line) and the common tools. You should get proficient with at least one programming editor and an IDE.

I wrote a long-ish article about job hunting and interviewing a while back. It's been a while since I interviewed for a job, and even longer since I worked in Silicon Valley, but you might find something useful.

Is it that, or is it just that people drive smaller vehicles on average in cities than in rural areas, and that's also where most of the pedestrians are?
> I was in perfect quarantine outside of traveling

It's the traveling part that was (and perhaps still is) worrisome to me during the pandemic, and also as more contagious and resistant variants were spreading all over the country and world. I still wonder about being exposed to antibody-resistant strains at travel hubs and in transit.

> Most of my travels were me alone (or with girlfirend) in my car.

Probably one of the few safe ways to travel while avoiding corona airways/railways/cruises/ferries/bus lines/etc..
