Academics also agree nazi stuff was pseudoscience. You are attacking a straw man.

I'm not really sure what phenomenon he's describing but I don't think it's liquidity.

I thought it was going to be about the difference between specializing in something where gigs come along infrequently (e.g. postgresql consultancy) vs. things (like Java dev) where there's always gonna be someone out there hiring.

Stupid idea: Let people mail invoices to the Fed and the Fed will pay for them.

If people start spending money again things will go back to normal. The hope is that the pandemic makes people realize that money is not a perfect risk free asset that you can hold onto forever.
AIUI, employers will be told whether the candidate took the tests, and if so what their score was:

> Going forward, our assessments are a purely optional means by which engineers can show their skills to employers (who overwhelmingly tell us that they trust our scoring), rather than a requirement for entry.

I think the idea is that an employer can still filter out the unfizzbuzzables, but has the option to ignore that for candidates whose stellar track record is a stronger signal.

I'm a little bit skeptical, because i think there are lots of people with apparently strong CVs who are still weak when you actually put them to the test. But maybe not at the very top end; i am really thinking about people with experience in various investment banks, which is perhaps less of a signal than Apple then Netflix or something.
Firefox Mobile has "reader mode" button right at the URL box.
Your point in the article about gaining bargaining power for engineers by making the hiring process an iterated game instead of one-shot is a good insight.

But the transparency you need to extract is mainly financial, that’s the big asymmetry. I think people care more about money than they say they do, and less about release cadence or test coverage or whatever than they say they do.

So triplebyte should be called “get me a raise.com”. I tell you what I’m making, smash all your tests, and you find me somebody who wants to offer me e.g $50k more or $100k more, and that WILL be the offer I get. And if the company reneges on that offer then it’s flagged to warn others, and if they do well by their employees they are rewarded as well.

Also remember that GM paid a fraction of that for the ignition switch scandal [0] where GM management intentionally hid the issue which directly lead to at least 120 deaths, and that was just the official count.

The US has little interest in hitting home companies in any way. Preventing the false advertising would impact the value of Tesla because the FSD claims were an integral part of Tesla's branding and success. Some countries in Europa, like Germany, blocked Tesla from using misleading claims in their advertising like suggesting anything about self driving [1]. Of course this is usually dismissed as Germany protecting its auto industry. But the reality is that the claims Tesla made consistently misleading and made to suggest the cars is able to self-drive and it's only regulations that prevent it from doing this.

Double you tee eff. You can look at the evidence (genetic, archeological, and linguistic) and decide for yourself.

It's the Indian nationalists who were multiple times caught faking evidence to assert indigenous Aryans theory.
When I was working at Kiwi.com as a senior product designer one of the guys on the development team did something very similar.

We were testing a new push notification refactoring and managed to send a push notification "Test test" to our whole Android user base (couple of hundred thousands of users). Interestingly enough, it was a great reactivation campaign. We bumped bookings by a noticeable margin, and since we redesigned our "rate us" flow couple of weeks before, we had a huge influx of 5* ratings as well.

One might view it as a way of discouraging remote work in Colorado for various reasons. I suspect that Colorado cannot collect much income tax on remote workers given their low flat income tax, so if the tax collected in the remote employers state is higher than that of Colorado, then Colorado gets nothing.

> What’s wrong with woke? The word has been around a lot longer than you might think. An event in Harlem in the 1920’s, which ran from 5.00pm to 5.00am was called The Stay Woke Ball, the meaning simply to stay awake.

Indeed, I woke up this morning...

That usage is surely far older than the '20s and I doubt that would surprise anyone.

But I don't think that is the usage in 'Stay Woke Ball': Wiktionary lists obsolete usage of 'wake' as 'To sit up late for festive purposes; to hold a night revel'; to me 'stay woke' there sounds like 'stay sat down' and similar, which is dialectal (British, at least) English for essentially the same as 'stay sitting down'.
Rough estimate, meeting humanity's energy demand (132 PWh per year - that's all energy, not just electricity), with a reasonably efficient fusion station, we'd make 3,000-5,000 tonnes of "waste" helium per year. But as others have alluded to, it's quite a useful element and the general concern is we don't have enough.

He’s either going to drop dead or we will develop cold fusion reactors first.

I'm not sure, I understand neoliberalism as a set of beliefs specifically about how the economy should be run, and libertarianism as a philosophical position and system of morality.

So my understanding of the relationship between the two is that libertarians tend to hold neoliberal beliefs about the economy, and many neoliberals are libertarians. But it's perfectly possible to hold neoliberal beliefs and not be libertarian (for instance, you could be a religious fundamentalist who believes the state should be run as an autocratic theocracy, but who also believes the economy should be run according to free-market capitalist principles).

If that's correct, my usage of neoliberal seems alright to me.

I do custom enterprise software and there the story is somewhat different. In that landscape many existing workloads are either being migrated to VMs or containers in the cloud or replaced with new cloud native applications. Companies are eager to have as minimal on-prem setup as possible (mostly for legacy software too difficult or risky to migrate).

For entirely new applications serverless solutions are usually the first option to be considered since they are very easy to operate. Many clients also don't have much expertise in-house for operating k8s so new workloads would be operated by outsourced ops teams or development teams themselves which is very expensive. Large enterprises also have formed some sort of "strategic partnership" or alliance with either Amazon or Microsoft so cloud agnosticism rarely enters the picture. In addition to being easier to operate, skilled development teams are also very fast to deliver on serverless since there's very little infrastructure-level things to worry about. The team can focus on business logic and delivering value from day 1. If you only look at Heroku I can assure you the market for serverless is much bigger and constantly growing.
just like all DSP, more process = more distortion.
If the original track had spatial in mind, and the artists put thought into it and that's what they want then fine. If we're just reprocessing mono/stereo content into spatial using god knows what settings then that's uh not cool.

It's the same with Dolby Vision, if the creator took the effort then great. If not, then might as well let algorithm takeover from TV's chipset and render every scene with most detail preserved or highest dynamic range achieved. Technically impressive, artistically bankrupt.
Maybe we have very different experiences and perspectives. If you're healthy and things are going well, then stability and routine look like something boring that maybe even takes away from the quality of your life. If you're struggling to function and having a normal day is an achievement on its own, then things look a lot different.

It reminds me of the Sears disaster [0].

"Eddie Lampert broke the company into 30 plus autonomous businesses, each with its own president, chief marketing officer, board, and separately measured profit and loss.

His idea was to harness the power of the free market, and to produce better and deeper data than anyone else.

But the radical restructuring went horribly wrong, as divisions engaged in cutthroat competition against each other"

The point is that you are deliberately misinterpreting the original article and then trying to turn that stupidity into silencing the problem entirely. The original article doesn't relate this to other statistics at all, that was a fabrication of the grandparent.

Of course NHTSA needs to investigate each and every one of these crashes. These are automated systems failing and so the issue could be systemic. It's the same reason every rail or airplane crash is investigated.
Yes, obviously you'd try to debug as much as possible without touching production data.

Of course, different businesses also have different requirements on how sensitive production data is.
Um, I'm not much of a team player. But when I did work with other people, if I had to write some crazy graphical interface or a 2D UI over a 3D game or something, it was much better to do it on my own. I'd just write a VERY GOOD API and let the others hook into the code. Document and comment everything so I can walk away from it and let other people take it over.

The kind of organization you work for sounds like both a soulless nightmare AND an incredibly inefficient waste of human potential.
Well, rollout makes a big difference for rwd vehicles. The target here was to present a sub 2 second time.
Meanwhile, line it up from a dead stop vs an AWD and you will get this real world result.
https://cleantechnica.com/2019/10/26/porsche-taycan-turbo-s-...

Even few feet rollout makes 0.3 seconds difference.

Another thing is the us system 0-60mph, add another 0.2 seconds for the european 0-100kmh.

In conclusion, nope a Tesla will not do 0-60 mph from a standstill.

The wilful cognitive dissonance on the part of the British establishment, and "sunlit uplands" types is remarkable.

You need to be a EU citizen or live in a EU country. Then it's pretty easy, just write a email stating that you want to have all data they collected about you including what they shared with which company. Alternatively you can claim, that they violate some paragraph from GDPR and they need to check the claim and give you an answer.

In both cases they have a legal requirement to answer in a few weeks (it's regulated in the GDPR itself).

A different option is to complain directly to your countries data protection office, this puts more pressure on the company, but it's mostly slower.

The European Union and the European Commission have a lot of resources about this topic:

I don’t think they are trying to kill free thought. I’d agree they severely limit any anti-ccp or anti-establishment but the level of innovation happening in China is strong evidence that “free thought” is encouraged.

Is Fox News, or the news media in general not just as much a threat to free thinking as an actual “propaganda department”.
How to Boost Sales with a Mobile Customer Loyalty App
Customer loyalty is a vital prerequisite for the success of every business. However, just providing high-quality services or selling good products is usually not enough. People want to get rewarded for their dedication to a particular brand, so companies need to develop customer loyalty programs.

> As a hiring manager, I have dozens of recruiting platforms to choose from, most touting the same list of resumes. Yet another resume farm has zero power.

Well, presumably the idea is that engineers, especially high quality ones, will be drawn to the recruiting platform that has more pro-engineer policies. And so if you avoid using it, you lose access to that subset of engineers.

It's still a chicken and egg problem, though, because engineers have little incentive to join until there's enough companies.

In my country it's common for companies to have public salary range, at least for IT positions - see https://justjoin.it/ for example board, Linkedin recruiters do the same thing.

It seems to be terrible waste of time going through interview process to learn that they won't even come close to what you want. I would not do that to myself.
So Model S Plaid can do 0-60 in 1.98s provided sticky VHT substance on the track. Same stuff used for other drag racers, super- and hypercars to get the required road friction.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PJ1_TrackBite

Without VHT:

"Once ready and in its cheetah stance, the Model S Plaid's launch is drama-free, even without the added advantage of VHT. The electric car accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.07 seconds, more than 0.2 second quicker than our previous record holder."

Based on this, what NorwegianDude suggested that it doesn't come even near to that acceleration is just false.

Not my cup of tea (loved the current Kafka one)

I prefer when books for learning use a consistent art style.
For me a perfect use case is sensor data processing. I've been involved with two independent sensor data platforms that used kafka as the backbone. Sensor data is persisted unprocessed to raw kafka topics, and then gradually deduplicated, refined, enriched and aggregated across multiple stages until finally a normalized, functionally sharded and aggregated view of the data is stored in databases for dashboarding.

It is easy to scale horizontally to massive volumes of data, and any issues in the processing pipeline can be fixed without losing any raw sensor data (restarting the consumers from the last known valid point).
This was my take on it. It could be that literally everyone on the leadership team was terrified into conformity, but I find that hard to believe, and that instead it was more of an inner-sanctum that held some admiration for the leader who let them in.
I feel that there's almost 'Protect Tesla at any cost' order, even though there clearly isn't one. I have this heavy feeling that should Tesla crash and burn, this is going to be a major hit not only for Nasdaq or S&P, it can lead to major disillusionment with what tech sector really is and what it can and can not do for humanity in general and for US as a country specifically.
I think the idea of value is a lot deeper than the article presents. There's a whole train of thought from the physiocrats to Marx and subjective utility that isn't easily summarized. Suffice to say it's not informative to separate fundamental value as some kind of clear thing.

Liquidity is about how easily you can turn the asset into something fungible (like money) without giving up too much. You can give me your house for 50% under the market value today if you like, or you can wait half a year for someone to pay full price, houses have this issue of mostly being illiquid. If you had shares in a company like Google, you could dump them on the market and recover the price of a house without a huge drop in the amount you'd get.

So how liquid are software skills? Well let's suppose you're a dev who normally would get paid $200K a year. How would we come to a number about how liquid that skill is?

One way might be to think about how long it takes to get a new job. Currently, it's not long at all. Maybe a couple of months, three? So if you were out of work you'd miss out on 50k of salary until you got your job. But also that's a flow of income, not a one-time capital payment like the house or the shares. Your job would probably last 5 years and thus pay $1m? So a 5% liq cost for searching as a first guess. (We can add wrinkles like interest rates, increasing salary and salary uncertainty later).
