I'm a software engineer with front and backend experience. I'm comfortable in a variety of modern languages and on AWS cloud. I recently co-created Jolt, a framework for deploying and managing JAMstack applications with serverless functions on AWS. Read more about it at https://jolt-framework.github.io/.

Unions are nothing more than a way to negotiate with capital as a single entity. There's more to negotiating as a union than wringing more bennies out of the employer. Things like "hey is sustained 60 hours a week really acceptable" "why do I have to put work email on my phone and be responsive 24/7" and "it's been 7 years boss and we haven't gotten new workstations" are all things that are up for bargaining. It's about negotiating things as a group that would get you laughed at or demoted if you were to do it by yourself.

Unions do not preclude promotions from merit. Unions do not preclude hiring people at the middle of the pay scale. Don't construct a straw man of the worst things you can think of, and package them up as the average union, because it isn't.
Android phones triggers wipe on unlock. So use unlock bootloader to stole data simply don't work.

Besides that, some phone will add a unremovble giant red exclamation mark on boot screen to notate the phone being unlocked to warn you `the phone is already unlocked, don't trust it unless it is done by you.`
Not directly a TV, but Amazon Sidewalk is building a mesh network in residential areas for pretty much this purpose.
There are no damages... because they settled.
>My job has nothing to do with unions of the past.

But you enjoy many of the benefits past union members fought and died for.
It's a shame that nobody but Youtube can afford to host videos at a loss year after year. I could vent for an hour about why I dislike the company: they are a privacy abomination; their moderation is incompetent; the way they monetize is unethical. If there were a worse steward than Youtube to store the bulk of humanity's video, I can't think of who it would possibly be.

Stop thinking there's anything wrong with not being the best at anything. I'm glad there are people in the world who are really good at certain things. They entertain me, they invent cool stuff but there's nothing wrong with all the rest of the people in the world including yourself. The mail carrier who delivers my mail isn't the best mail carrier in the world, they deliver my mail and I appreciate that. There isn't anything that makes them a less worthy person for not winning mail carrier of the year. Conversely there's nothing that makes talented or people who are good at what they do any more worthy of being happy with themselves. In fact some of them are pieces of shit and do awful things. Now ask yourself, who convinced me that I am unworthy of being happy because I don't have a gold medal around my neck?
The modern Internet is a war zone, like a failed state. Any protocol or system must be armored for battle. Anything that is at all “open” will be destroyed by spam and other forms of exploitation the instant it becomes popular enough to have any value whatsoever as a target.
The Switch is 90% an Nvidia Shield Tablet. One of the best Android tablets ever and it barely sold. Get Nintendo to market it and it sells at a rate matching 50% of the global tablet market every year.

August Health | (Senior) Backend Engineer | Distributed team (USA-based) | Full-time

A demographic "perfect storm" is brewing over the next 25 years: (1) the 80+ population will double to more than 30 million people, (2) the family caregiver ratio will almost cut in half (and is further hurt as more children move away from their parents), and (3) as life expectancy rises, people are living for years with complex health issues and disability.

And annual long term care costs are about $400 billion today. Our goal is to make a significant difference in care quality for elders and put a dent in healthcare costs in the country.

I’m a co-founder at August Health. We’re looking for engineers who: 1. Want to work on something that’s good for the world and 2. Care about engineering.

Right now we’re looking to hire an engineer to focus more on our backend APIs and infrastructure. We're using scala for those that like to search for keywords, but we don’t need you to have any experience with it, just ability to learn. You should have a few years experience under your belt. Email me: erez AT augusthealth.com

Prior to this, we cofounded and sold a big-data mapping company, Mapsense, to Apple. Our team of 9 has a strong technical background and also includes a physician with years of experience with geriatric patients. We are well capitalized with financing from tier-1 VCs.

We’re a fully distributed team, deliberate about building our culture, offer competitive comp/benefits, and like to think we’re a fun place to work!
Wonder if there’s some way of encoding this as a much higher level, such that you could wrap any difficult handling logic inside of a library and simplify the handling of errors for us mere humans.

>Python, as befits Python, has default behavior for instances that I believe is "is" equivalency

Python dicts consider two keys the same if they have the same hash value and are "=="-equal. So __eq__ and __hash__ are the dunder methods to finagle. Python's sets are the same way.

A useful example is with the pathlib library.

from pathlib import Path
p = Path('a.txt')
q = Path('a.txt').absolute()
p is q # False
{p, q} # Only one element

"q" carries some different info than "p", but it refers to the same file location. So not considering them distinct values is a good decision for this package.

It's a warning to all trolls, they say in the article. The exact warning is undefined however.
Out of curiosity, what is the typical way of building stuff like this? (will dig into the code but might not understand if very well) Do you have to read the youtube html code to figure out which things to hide, or is there a completely different approach?

I understand what you are trying to say regarding macros and I think you are correct that many probably do not define their own macros and happily use the language as is. However, I think if macros are disabled everyone will notice right away.

(macroexpand '(defn foo [x] (println x)))

Returns:

(def foo (clojure.core/fn ([x] (println x))))

Clojure itself is built from macros. Even something simple like defining a named function with defn.
I agree with your sentiment but it's funny that you mention doctors being "gatekeepers for antibiotics." They're still not good at that.

Most doctors have not updated their theory on gut microbiomes and still overprescribe antibiotics for unnecessary use.

I'm surprised as as far as I can tell it's "to big" in relation to it's benefits to (likely) be fully hobby maintained and currently not supported directly or indirectly by any company.

No. They are different in the computational complexity of random access operations.

I've been avoiding reading nearly everything political for months now, probably since January, but for some reason I read this one. It was really interesting, and a few things surprised me. It's a report written by a Republican that came down pretty hard on some other Republicans.

"He didn’t stop there. Galvanized by the shameless grifting he’d encountered during the course of his investigation, McBroom stunned his GOP colleagues by referring to Michigan’s attorney general for possible prosecution “those who have been utilizing misleading and false information about Antrim County to raise money or publicity for their own ends."

I don't think the identity in this case is necessarily relevant. It certainly could be, but at the same time, I don't necessarily believe that people with this kind of money are already public figures. There are definitely still people that could scrounge up this kind of money, live on a couple hundred thousand dollars a year, and be private people.
I think it's dead unless Mozilla changes its mind or some other company decides to take up the mantle. I doubt an open-source project this ambitious can survive without paid maintainers. And then on top of that, a whole lot of institutional knowledge has been suddenly scattered to the winds.
I would have liked to see a debate between Chock Moore and his Greenarrays chip and a Danny Hillis and the connection machine.

Despite surface similarities, the two projects are very differnt (speed vs energy efficiency, simd vs mimd, lisp(*) vs forth)

But to program them you must keep the same mindset, I think, and both are best seen as macro-FPGAs.

Nexus is adding a new premium "Collection" feature to the site, and will be removing the ability for mod authors to delete their mods once uploaded to the site.

> The change was announced to mod authors recently, and basically means that mod files are no longer deleted, but rather archived - which will make them inaccessible unless directly requested e.g. via the API. We understand that not everyone in the mod author community shares our convictions and our vision, and that is why we are granting a 1 month grace period in which mod authors can request to have all their files deleted for good by contacting support@nexusmods.com.

After August 5th 2021 (10:00 AM BST), mod authors will be unable to request deletion of their mods from the site to support the new "Collections" feature.
Gmail tells its users to use sms. So if it’s true what you say, sms is not secure, and it’s true that Gmail pushes users to use it, then it’s must therefore be true that Gmail isn’t secure.

Correct my logic, please.
Not all do, but those that don’t will have to raise a lot more and give up a ton more of the company to do so.
That's one side of the equation; what's the cost of living?
The A2D of soundcards is pretty usefuyif you can get your signals into the audible range. The ZetaSDR (second schematic at http://www.qrz.lt/ly1gp/SDR/ ) is probably the most rewarding project for the effort I put in. It plugs into a soundcard and I was able (with the help of an antenna tuner) pick up signals from around the world, including some incredibly weak ones.

This weekend the VLF station in Sweden https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grimeton_Radio_Station will be broadcasting and all you need (in theory) is a very long wire plugged into your soundcard to receive it. Like https://sites.google.com/site/swljo30tb/
A good example of solving the wrong problem.
No, they want people that are competent and want to do what they're there to do. They don't want people that just want to show up and have their bills paid.
Possibly. But you can't trust everything you read on the internet.
I Hope My Father Dies Soon (2013)
That's a "he was no angel" argument, and like all such it's really an attempt to deflect. The reason to reward whistleblowers isn't to make sure the money goes to Objectively Good and Unimpeachably Moral individuals, it's to incentivize enforcement of laws and norms.

The guy could be a raging narcissist with a gambling problem (which would be quite a bit worse than trying to be a "full-time whistleblower") and we would STILL want him to blow the whistle on wrongdoing he witnesses, right?
It may (perhaps, I can't tell) not use "extra memory" compared to the data structure they had before, but it definitely is using memory it wouldn't need if it didn't preserve order.

Otherwise it would be more or less a violation of the pigeonhole principle. The insertion order is information, if you don't need to store that anywhere but you promise to give it back anyway that's a hole in your information theory.

I also wonder what justifies the headcount when Change.org petitions are almost universally pointless and ineffectual?
They can also lobby on moral grounds - e.g. cracking down on dark patterns, against doing business with abusive regimes or domestic concentration camp operators.

And in situations where the law isn't involved, that's great. Here, though, it is.

Talking about damages being paid, as the headline does, is especially indicative of the legal context.
We are building the YouTube for podcasts |
Zencastr | https://jobs.lever.co/zencastr | Remote

Why join us?

Your favorite podcast probably records with us.
Fully distributed team. No HQ just happy coders across the world. We are remote 100% and staying that way.

Currently have 8-10% of the active podcast creator market on our platform.
100% YoY Revenue growth.
Former TikTok early employee + Techstars employee as founders. Early engineers from Viber, Lyft, TikTok on the team.
At some point in the future, YouTube competitors will probably become cost effective - probably 30-50 years in the future.

If you've ever imagined someone coming from the future with futuristic technology, it would probably look something like YouTube. It's a piece of technology we effectively can't replicate that we're entirely beholden to because removing our dependence on it would set us back decades socially, technologically, and functionally.

This was my thought. Extremely unlikely a regular internet troll has that kind of money.
Disclaimer: I have no idea who Stephen Nolan is, and I'm not aware of the context. The reaction is based solely on the article.

I get a feeling that the light is only being shed on the side of the story which makes the "victim" look like an alpha male. All this "message" and "tracing" crap.

I wonder how this "troll" was "traced". Specially trained Twitter-hound? You don't just "trace" people on the internet.

They way I see it (the way the article depicts the situation), they very well knew who could be the troll, and simply threatened the offender:

> There was immediate contrition and categoric statements of regret, with the individual pleading for anonymity due to his expressed personal security concerns

People usually say things like that when there is a presence of an immediate danger to their well-being.

I mean, fair enough, you play with the bull you get the horns. But don't make it look like a triumph of justice accompanied with an honourable act of mercy. You just blackmailed six figures out of a person for sending texts.
What are its dependents? Or is it mostly used as a reference implementation still?
Right on cue, HN armchair experts underestimating the complexity of real world businesses.
I'll also add that as a "campaigner" working for someone like change.org, you can expect to make less because lots of people want to work in the these activist roles. It's similar to how game developers are paid less than b2b saas developers.

Brickit scans your pile of legos and shows you what you can make
That would make usize a 32-bit integer, regardless of the data width.

It does make other hidden assumptions though, such as that there is a single "memory" that is uniquely identified by a usize value, regardless of the way it is accessed. For x86, for example, the same address could either refer to a location in memory or to a location in an I/O device, depending on whether in/out instructions or "normal" instructions were used.
