Why would an employer trust your vetting process?

I mean the primary cost of hiring is time. Signing up for your service doesn’t save big chunks of it versus working with a regular recruiter.

And it is possible to have a business relationship with a recruiter. Less so with an algorithm or website.

The problem with hiring is it’s a market for lemons. Signing up people looking for remote work doesn’t address a business problem companies can’t solve themselves with a job listing. They probably don’t even need to mention remote work to get a stack of cv looking for it.

To put it in market terms, the recruiting market is very efficient. There is a rough equilibrium between jobs and recruiters already.

Good employers have ongoing relationships with recruiters…just as good engineers already have jobs.

Good luck.
No amount of success insulates you from tons of annoying and tasks and interactions.

The only way to insulate yourself from that would be to be completely unsuccessful.

But then you would have to be either extremely poor, which is exhausting, or make/have money another way, which is likely to be a huge distraction.

There is really no solving for this.
I think you may have misread the comment you're responding to. They're saying income is 80% of expenses, not the other way around. In other words, expenses are 125% of income, leaving a negative number to be invested or saved.

It's called hormesis. Yes, there is a range beyond which further stress causes permanent and serious damage, but within the hormetic range "adversity" is basically the proximate cause of growth.
I think it means it was targeting older model iPhones that are updated to the newest available software from Apple but aren’t supported by the newest versions of iOS. Apple generally releases security updates for these older versions for major vulnerabilities when they know about them, but as stated this was a zero-day so they had not had the opportunity to patch it before the attack.
Really nice list, the rudiments of wisdom looks great for what I’m after, thanks.

> I mean let's be frank, median household income is $64k in the US. It's about the richest in the world [...]

This is a near meaningless way to compare things. I am not sure we even have an appropriate, widely used and widely computed/measured metric for this.

What matters is not the size of the median household income, but the ratio of this income to likely household expense.

If you need to put far more of your income into your self-managed retirement account(s), or to pay for healthcare that isn't covered by a national insurance scheme, or to pay for membership at a recreational facility that might otherwise have been free after local taxes, or to cover current, future or past educational costs that would be an order or magnitude or more less in another locale, or to cover day care that might have been provided by your government, your effective income is not well measured by its absolute magnitude.
Using a proper domain and real certificates is literally the right thing to do. It prevents anyone squatting on your domain and breaking internal shit.
We seriously need to kick that bad habit as a species. Not only is it a widely exploited bug but it is a death spiral - you need a new scapegoat or the unity collapses.

ZFS straddles layers - from block device to file system - which normally are handled by discrete components. It does this in its own way which does not always fit my way. It is resource hungry which does not play well with resource-starved hardware. Growing ZFS vdevs is possible but it is not nearly as flexible as an mdraid/lvm/filesystem_of_choice solution.

In short, ZFS works fine on capable hardware with plenty of memory. It offers more amenities than a system based on mdraid/lvm/filesystem_of_choice. The latter combination can work on lower-spec hardware with less memory where ZFS would bog down or not work at all.
Twitter appears like a one-trick pony. We need to start asking whether it serves any purpose, apart from flaming wars and doom scrolling. It is a glorified advertising network being repurposed (and marketed) as "public square".
Thank you for this thoughtful comment swimming in a sea of cynicism
I disagree a bit. I trained my parents early to expect a cut, and at 19 I moved with a girlfriend and never looked back.

We have a good relationship and they re good parents but I cut all attempts at having them take more space in my life than the minimum. It's so common in France we call that killing your dad (I googled and it seems to be a Freudian expression we started using to say growing up) and is part of growing up.

I have a kid now, and I want her to get the fuck out at 19, and start a life of her own with as little need for my involvment.

The funny thing is I moved to Hong Kong eventually and couldnt convince my french gf of 7 years to follow me because she couldnt tolerate being so far from her parents. I then met my current chinese wife, born here, who is in a very fusional relationship with her mom, who talks to her for hours everyday, so much she needs to kill her phone at night to stop it. And they live an hour apart...

It s clear to me there's something in Asia that's different because they all seem just as fusional (I find it unhealthy), but it may be also a girl thing more generally ? I have a sample of 2 so it's hard to know.

In any case, my daughter will be encouraged to "kill her dad" and be on her own. Even if her mom might disagree :D
miniconda remains an option though.
Yes. That's happened with fleet vehicles already. Five electric busses parked at a university in China had this happen:

Yeah, this feels like a "why do you need an IT department?" kind of thing. Just rent your computers from MSFT and they'll take care of maintaining them, upgrading, etc. "It's all in the cloud" and all that.

It seems like the logical end goal would be you pay your subscription fee to Microsoft and you just sign in and all your subscription-based apps and data are just there, in the cloud, always available. You stop paying, they'll all go away... or are limited in some way.
Aren't these issues inherent to being a battery?

Also related is how effective walking away is.

20 minutes + a good night's sleep + 20 minutes is often more effective than an hour of practice in one go. Possibly even 2 hours.
Even reading only the first few paragraphs there are a number of things which stick out as being wrong here.

His Father was not killed at the Battle of the Somme. He was killed 20 May 1917, the Battle of the Somme lasted from 1 July 1916 to 18 November 1916.

James Bond was supposed to have spent two terms at Eton but then four to five years at Fettes (a posh Scottish school) so the Eton connection isn't terribly significant.

Ian Fleming's family might have entertained Disraeli but given that Disraeli was dead before either of Fleming's parents were born it wasn't a close connection.

If the reviewer is getting this stuff out of the book it's questionable how useful the book is.

I understand at Bloomberg they’ll do an internal “fantasy financial league”, but they rank by sharpe ratio, which adjusts based on the volatility/risk (something like that).

But that’s such a good point about stock competitions generally showing kids that the reckless gambler wins the most - never thought about that.

Nassim Taleb has written entire books on this fact about banks. It's interesting that the same flaws in their financial thinking apply to their IT infrastructure.

My father was never there, and when he was I has to manage all the horrible feelings of dread and downfall for him, me and my siblings because he was always on the brink of living on the street. As I grew up I saw him deteriorate. He is stubborn. I asked him once if me and my brothers could help clean his home so my kids could visit safely, but he started yelling about how I always complain to him.

I have no need for him in my life.

If you're the authority you can restrict the certificate authority to a given set of domains, but that's if you're the authority.

I'd like browsers to give users control over that, to trust a CA in a limited fashion for only a subset of domains without trusting it to MITM the web.
If you read the next paragraph in the article, he does say basically that.

The problem is, even if you don't want it, your employer might.
"You're wrong to feel this way" is a ridiculous notion, one I had to personally unlearn. Emotions aren't right or wrong and you can't control them. Disregarding someone's emotions as wrong has exactly one result, resentment, which leads to heightened conflict.

You can acknowledge that someone's emotions are valid while disagreeing with them on the content. Here's a template: "It sounds like when I said x you felt y, that wasn't my intention, my intention was z."
Evoking the sense that there are systematic forces at play is intentional! Who cares if _you're_ bad with money? It could be an edge case that doesn't matter. But if it's normal to be bad with money (i.e. there are a lot of people who are bad with money), that's a little more interesting -- something to pay attention to.

Also, as someone on the younger side, this mentality is comforting. It's the comfort of existing within a school of fish. Despite unpredictable currents that act on you like an object, it's comforting to know that there are many of you. A few individuals disappear here and there, but chances are the school will survive. You're normal, you belong, things are hard, but you'll probably be fine.

Anyone claiming that critical race theory is a "conspiracy" is either massively misinformed, or being actively deceptive in order to push that very ideology. The National Education Association, a union with about 2.3 million members, has not only affirmed the existence of it, but is actively pushing for its inclusion in schools[1][2]:

"Share and publicize, through existing channels, information already available on critical race theory (CRT)"

"Provide an already-created, in-depth, study that critiques empire, white supremacy, anti-Blackness, anti-Indigeneity, racism, patriarchy, cisheteropatriarchy, capitalism, ableism, anthropocentrism, and other forms of power and oppression at the intersections of our society, and that we oppose attempts to ban critical race theory and/or The 1619 Project."

"Commit President Becky Pringle to make public statements across all lines of media that support racial honesty in education including but not limited to critical race theory.

This isn't limited to universities, either - it's being taught in K-12 schools[3]:

"Responding to prompts such as “In the last year, I have learned _____ about race and racism,” and “One way I will work for racial equity in my work,” teachers say:

“American society makes it hard to have high hopes.” Racism infests the nation’s “entire fabric.” Everyone must “lean into the discomfort.” “Older millennials are disappointingly racist.” “Aspects of the anti racist movement have been co-opted by neoliberal corporations, and reactionarily [sic] opposed by many even mainstream conservative thinkers.” Racism is “layered into everything we do at school.” We must “share the harsh reality of the BIPOC and LBGTQI communities with our students.” “Discuss issues of equity as arising in most every book I teach.”

Oh, and the statement by the NEA was removed from its website shortly after[4] (https://ra.nea.org/business-item/2021-nbi-039/ now redirects to the homepage), which is only further evidence for the fact that many of those pushing this ideology are simultaneously attempting to gaslight and actively lie to their opponents in an attempt to convince the public that it doesn't exist.

I'm not sure why you used the phrase "witch hunt" when the ideology clearly exists and is actively being pushed in education around the United States. Perhaps you meant to use the phrase "accountability culture"?

Maybe a good example of "normalization of deviance" in society?
Yes, when I was a total programming noob and had no idea about business I had these projects.

Today I scale everything down so I can build it in a realistic time frame. A project I can't release after half a year is likely not going to be ever released. If it turns out to generate interest I instantly have 5 times the motivation to improve it, if it doesn't I at least haven't wasted to much time. If I start loosing interest before a release is near I just throw it away too, no point in forcing it

Edit:// sure I learned a lot with the going nowhere projects too. And the most important thing to learn was my personal way to build any projects faster in future
Anecdotally, I'd say it's very common. In fact I often meet people who have abandoned previously lucrative careers to work for peanuts, in exchange for more skiing. A friend of mine used to be an investment banker; currently a server at a bar. I myself gave up software development and delivered pizza for a couple of years (though I later ended up with a decent compromise.)

It wasn't. Provide a citation, please. I provided one:

> "But despite the memo's cold calculations, was Ford characterized fairly as the Kevorkian of automakers? Perhaps not. In 1991, A Rutgers Law Journal report [PDF] showed the total number of Pinto fires, out of 2 million cars and 10 years of production, stalled at 27. It was no more than any other vehicle, averaged out, and certainly not the thousand or more suggested by Mother Jones."

So again, it was no more likely to catch fire than other cars at the time.

Mother Jones is rightly a revered publication now, but their reporting on this was seriously flawed to the point of being journalistic malpractice.
> Microsoft should beat AWS's offering here because well, they make the OS that they are virtualizing.

I don't see the obvious connection here. Software is easy to install. But Azure is not really close in scale of deployment to AWS.
This is a rebranding of Azure Virtual Desktop. It is intended for companies and Azure already requires a payment method on file or a purchase order arrangement. It is not going to have charges for printing or anything else. It's intended for IT departments that need an easier way to start using VDI and or prosumers who want it for whatever reason. It definitely won't share data with random companies otherwise no regulated business will be able to use it.
They say it’s appropriate for industrial designers. I wonder if that implies GPU support. The only use case I have for windows is a few steam games that don’t run on Linux. Make the setup seamless, and charge by the hour, and… maybe?
This is one reason I'm hoping that lithium iron phosphate batteries catch on for the low-to-medium end EVs that don't need huge range, as the batteries tend to be quite a bit safer. Not that it's impossible to catch LFP cells on fire, it's just harder.

I also wonder if it would help to have an emergency discharge port or something? In other words, a fire truck pulls up and they plug a cable from the car's discharge port that energizes some high-power heating elements to boil water or something. The idea being that the faster you can discharge the battery, the less stored energy you have to deal with catching things on fire again. (Though it might not actually help, since in the short term extracting power from the battery will just cause it to heat up more.)

(The "emergency discharge port" could just be a DC fast charger port with some method to force the contactors to engage.)
There's a ton of easy low-hanging fruit along these lines that could be improved. Good example: I have a python script that routinely scans my ~/downloads directory and quarantines anything more than 24 hours old. It then scans the quarantine directory and deletes anything more than a week old. If the data is important, I'll have 2 chances to save it someplace meaningful.

> people forgive their parents for things they would never forgive anybody else for

I suspect this is because after becoming a parent, most people instinctively recognize the contract between generations: if you want your own kids to maintain a relationship with you in your old age, regardless of the inevitable mistakes you will make as a parent, you probably ought to give them a good example to follow.
This isn't very surprising; they introduced fleets 8 months ago but never bothered to add them to the web version in any form.

amz seem to be buying into everything under the sun and trumpling usage agreements (i.e. "reselling" consumer broadband with people joining via dark-patterns despite it being against their ISP terms of service, via amz sidewalk product)... and that can scale up to O.G. Bell levels of monopoly.

What do folks typically use for storing media you don't access very often, but when you do access it you want it relatively quickly and at high transfer speeds?

I like to backup my UHD blurays losslessly and stream them from my PC via plex (~100mbps). I'm thinking local storage via a NAS is probably the cheapest option here, right?
I agree with everything you said.

I guess the point I was trying to make is more that doing these things is not impossible. It is just a matter of being properly informed (which is in itself a difficult task).

Yes, but this is about Germany and not US, and (AFAIK) consumer protection laws in Europe generally prohibit stores to pick and choose customers arbitrarily.

Being direct worked for me. Your mileage may vary. "Do you mind if we talk about something else? I'd rather not discuss politics."

LOL I gotta say man, whoever "we" is that is in charge of marketing needs to go. Hire someone that actually works in marketing, and same goes for the web developer. Also whoever wrote the copy for the website, fire them also.

On the other hand, I bank online and KNOW my data ends up on the banks server in a readable format and still do it because trust itself is built by what the audience perceives and there are HUGE network factors in play when building trust. There is no trust momentum for you guys considering the sort of information you expect customers to trust you with.

Also, you seem to think that you're selling to customers who routinely develop proofs about what bob can keep safe from alice or whatever, but are those really the folks who will make your product a win? I would almost think those folks would more likely be your competition rather than your customers. Heck, I really can't tell who you are marketing to honestly.

If you were an online battle tank game and asking 60 a year its a completely different story.
