I'm unsure of exact enforcement and such but you could report them if you wanted. I also don't mind FAANG so much since there's so much info available for those positions on like levels.fyi.

The biggest strength for me is that I can ask them and they have to tell me. When I was job searching before I'd ask the recruiter and then they'd always ask me what my target is. Not showing your cards is like negotiation 101. Plus it's made fielding messages and emails easier. If they provide a range, I can just easily say "This position sounds interesting but unfortunately the salary range isn't what I'm looking for currently."

You're right that a lot of positions aren't great about this, I've literally seen "Pay starting at $0.01" or ranges literally $30k to +$200k. But I've seen it as a benefit in the negotiation process and it's just been easier to field recruiters.

This law only covers salary as far as I know, so equity and such aren't included. Total comp is different.

Padraig's a nice guy, why not email him!
He has no idea probably.

ByteDance's founder is an engineer, who happened to notice the fact that automation should come into content distribution in addition to all other aspects of social and economic activities.

So he started JinRiTouTiao, pretty much a DouYin/TikTok applied to text news. The narattive is this to give an analog. The fact is that DouYin/TikTok followed JinRiTouTIao's model.

TouTIao's content, like DouYin/TikTok, are manufactured to catch the attention. With attractive/provoking/(or whatever encourages clicking) titles, like the filtered/enhanced cover photo of any DouYin/TikTok video. The content is largely nonsensical, usually a rehash of some well-known old news. Just like DouYin/TikTok, just nonsensical videos to give you some short-term surge of satisfaction. The ads are mixed together with the manufactured content, which also has the same attractive title and content. Just like DouYin/TikTok.

The thing is that ByteDance, as a new generation of Internet company, becomes more fragile than any of its predecessors. In the sense that most of key factors of its success are based on machines, which are much easier to copy than things invovled more human activities (for example, it's easy to copy a successful anime, to make it successful, but it's much harder to copy the idea of a motion picture with actors and make it successful).

You can imagine someday, another startup, happen to invented a new AI that can generate content, whoola, ByteDance would be crumbling. If the founder would be as convicted as Mark Zuckberg, ByteDance would be killed in a few years...

Counterpoint - slowing down the rate of change of a properly designed language makes it stronger. Having a vast amount of bolted-on cruft with inconsistent design principles makes a language pretty horrible. Example C++.

It's a fun exercise to think about how you would do C++ fresh starting with ansi C, given what you know now based on the actual experiences of C++, Java, D, Rust etc. C++ has had a tendency to attempt to solve the current problem while being tightly coupled to it, problems which may not even exist later. I submit STL allocators as an example of this.

What's the best way of enforcing taste? Slow down the changes, put barriers in the way? That's horrible, sure, but is there something better? Benign Dictator maybe? Bjarne's taste has improved considerably (and I'm sure I could have made a bigger hash of it than he did starting out too).
How about we treat people as adults capable of negotiating and discussing what they do and want to do? This problem then does not even arise.

Teamwork is difficult because being an adult is difficult. Just solve the adult problem and you’ll see that the rest of it comes together pretty easily.

I think having an implementation isn't needed. However having an implementation proves that the idea is feasible and simplified verifying it.

This exactly! The branding and versioning of .NET is a complete disaster. There's .NET Framework (where even simply getting the current runtime version requires several convoluted hoops, since System.Environment.Version has gone the way of browser user agents and frozen itself at "4.0.30319").

Then there is .NET Standard, which was at version 1 and 2 (which are newer than .NET Framework 4.0 or 4.5? but have significantly fewer APIs available, and many classes are missing methods and properties that were present in .NET Framework).

Then there is .NET Core which reset the versioning scheme again?

Then there is .NET 5 which is newer than all of these, but is it actually fully supported on non-windows platforms?

Then you need Newtonsoft.JSON, and then you get to watch your entire project blow up because you have three different dependencies that use different versions of netstandard/netcore/netframework and the assemblies aren't compatible.

I really hope going forward there will be just one unified .NET 6 that works the same on all platforms and doesn't need a million different builds of the same nuget package.

Edit: And even after all this, deploying your app by just copying the .exe and .dlls to a pristine machine often fails, because the corresponding .NET framework runtime isn't installed. And then you need to be a lawyer to figure out if you can even ship the net framework installer to your customer or how to handle that. You would think Microsoft would have a better story to sell to developers as what should be "the way" to develop and distribute windows executables. It seems like the only way to really be portable is to use an ancient version of Visual C to write win32 directly, and link the corresponding msvcrt statically.
You are wrong, there is no way to access the GPU directly unless you are the driver author.

I don’t think it is so much that they don’t have better things to do as it is that their primary project is blocked by some distant tool not quite doing what they need and unwilling or unable to make it do what they need.

So the engineers roll their own. It works perfectly well for their narrow use case , but is also half-baked for the general case.

Then a year later some distant team sees that you half baked solution would work for them if it were generalized a bit, but you don’t have the time or resources to help this distant team. So yet another half baked solution appears.

I want a mosquito-killing turret [1] that you could put in your bedroom and sleep in peace.

Turns out one exists [2] (in theory—no commercial product a decade later), but the one I was thinking of would use microphones rather than cameras [3] to detect the bloody suckers. Thing is, I can't find any prior research or even hints that people have considered this approach. (The closest I can find is an app [4] that detects a mosquito from ≤10cm away.) Here are some of my guesses for why it's not been done:

A. Maybe it's too difficult to distinguish mosquito buzz/whine from background noise, even when filtering in only known mosquito frequencies (~400Hz [5]).
B. Maybe it's too slow to sweep a room with a directional mic that's focused enough to detect mosquito sounds? (Say the turret in one ceiling corner of a 12x12x8ft room.)
C. Maybe directional mics don't work well for all sound in their cone and so need to be able to "focus" at different distances (by dynamically changing the parabolic dish's shape), thereby increasing the room sweep time?
D. Maybe the parabolic dish needs to be so big that it just looks ridiculous?
E. Maybe all of this is possible but the type of microphone is so expensive that it's worth pursuing commercially?

I'm curious what you all think about this. It'd be an interesting thing to try making—who hasn't wanted to make a death ray while simultaneously furthering the fight against humanity's deadliest enemy? [6]

See also this research paper: Detecting Insect Flight Sounds in the Field: Implications for Acoustical Counting of Mosquitoes [7] (I'm pretty sure this is not directional—they hung an attractant 15cm from the mic and I don't see any dish.)

[2]: https://www.ted.com/talks/nathan_myhrvold_could_this_laser_z...

[3]: I don't think cameras are well-suited to detecting something so small. The "photonic fence" from the TED talk only kinda works by adding a white background behind the bugs so it's really easy for the camera to detect them—not that practical in a normal room.

Not all news stations are the same, not all countries have the same TV news.

It is easy to just give up and think that you cannot trust anyone. But, the reality is that there is many journalists that care and try to create high quality news. To put them all in one bag is not fair, nor helpful.
>Most people will never have even heard of, much less care, about Loki or Norse mythology

I doubt that's the case. Thor for example at least has been pretty popular from before, maybe on the level of Zeus, I'm guessing Loki was at least half as popular of a mythological character.

Even separately, I must've read at least 10 fantasy works with a trickster god named Loki.

Not really involved in the field, but this makes me wonder, would training deep neural nets first on root languages such as Latin and ancient Greece improve speed of learning subsequent languages that arose after? Essentially, make the steps that need to be learned between languages smaller, helping to bridge larger translation tasks between modern languages more quickly.

I think there is a difference between an imperfect implementation of something that has never been done before (especially when your competition is an adtech giant oligopoly) and "dark patterns".

Worth pointing out that part of the reason it was hard to just refund people who donated to non-verified creators was Brave actually caring about privacy, so the donations in question were completely anonymous.

So when it was pointed out that it's still a problem, they came up with a solution that I think strikes a good balance.
What we know about it is that it is the most expensive alternative. Building, operating, and maintaining a new solar installation is cheaper than just operating and maintaining a nuke steam generator, ignoring the huge construction and decommissioning costs.

We finally got the ramshackle Indian Point and Diablo Canyon contraptions shut down, after decades of constant effort, and now it will cost a billion dollars and a decade or two to take them apart.
Agreed. It's more like 90%.
I think what Disney did here is bad, or maybe Redbubble did the bad thing…

What I’m not clear on is whether anyone can do anything about it? Let’s take an even more absurd example, let’s say Disney was worried about Snow White merch, and they put the word “apple” on the list of words they would like Redbubble not to allow.

And let’s say they removed all my shirts with original paintings of heirloom apple varietals.

What recourse do I have? Disney asked Redbubble to do a thing and they did. But Redbubble has no legal responsibility to allow my shirts on their marketplace. I can contact their support and try to resolve it, but if they won’t then I need to find another partner.

Maybe on some grounds there is an anti-trust thing here since Disney controls so much of the merch space? But anti-trust cases are hard to win and even harder to find a DA who will take the case.

It’s a shitty situation, but any kind of real solution seems so far outside the realm of possibility it’s hard for me to get too excited about it.

I guess if there are enough “Disney is bad” articles floating around that maybe affects them negatively, or at least helps out some of their competitors in terms of hiring and viewership.

So, I’m glad this article and this thread appeared for that reason.

I used to work for a local newspaper that had been operated by the owner's family for generations. Our content was almost entirely unique, with the exception of a few filler stories we'd occasionally pull from another source (small stuff like "Spring Cleaning Tips"). The owner was proud that we were the last small newspaper in the state to resist being bought up by the owner of the capitol city's paper. We were well-respected in the area, and it was joked that the only time we lost a subscriber was when they passed away. The owner died a few years ago. Her sons didn't want to keep her "hobby project" afloat, so the paper finally was sold like all the others.

A couple of years later I wrote a script to consolidate stories from news sites across my state and display them with a nice UI, since I have family all over the place and want to keep up with what's going on. The majority of stories were duplicated across all of them, and local news had become the filler content. Even for stories of national importance, they can be interpreted in so many ways that you'd expect different people in different areas to have different analyses of the facts (which is what used to happen), but that doesn't exist anymore. With the pushback against "fake news", official news sources are the only acceptable source of information, and those are monopolized by an increasingly tiny minority of people. BTW I don't put "fake news" in quotes to say that it doesn't exist, but that it's a catch-all term for propaganda that goes against the official propaganda.
It probably is what they meant. However, what was written is that `echo` itself is non-portable, which isn't correct.

Do the rebroadcast shows (eg not actually live but still displayed on cloudflare.tv) get transmitted using the same architecture? In what ways would it benefit from a hybrid architecture?

What are the most resource onerous parts of Cloudflare TV? What are the ways in which the resource demands can be alleviated?

Are there changes independent of the network that can optimise the livestream (eg codecs)? Are there any explicit efforts made to remediate the poor connection of some participants in the livestream? This situation happened recently when Matthew Prince interviewed the Atlassian cofounder. There were at least six disconnections. Does the participant get notified somehow?

At which PoP do the streams get mixed together to produce a livestream? Is a middle point between both geographic locations chosen? Or does it depend on the status of the network?

A lot more questions but unfortunately that post addresses very little from a technical standpoint. If it is celebrated as a technical feat, there should at least be some technical information.

The article points to this older post that has more technical info (https://blog.cloudflare.com/building-cloudflare-tv-from-scra...). But the post is nearly a year old. It would have been more interesting to see a technical lessons learned post in comparison with that older original post. Hopefully, that is what is in store and hinted at.
