Some companies do "hire fast, fire fast"... so yes.

But I choose not to work for those companies, instead I prefer a strongly opinionated hiring process that won't play with anyone's life like that.

That said, treating probation as probation is definitely a thing. Especially in legal domains such as France and Germany. In the USA it's far less of a thing as employers can mostly let go of people at almost any time if they wish to and it's not a pattern of discrimination (though this is the fear of course, that a pattern could be formed).

Not really, nothing wise given that if you are trying to measure something you need to clearly define it first, and given the amount of controversy around (some or all) criticism against Israel being anti-semitism you need to first clearly define what you are considering is anti-semitism and what is not.

I wouldn’t install anti-cheat malware personally, but I think many of the people who want to play these games care more about not having cheaters in their games than having ring 0 control.

They’re extremely passionate about their skills and want nothing more than a fair playing field. Playing only with friends is not a real solution.

Computing freedom means you have the freedom to give up control, too. It’s your choice.

Walmart Labs was a step in this direction.. but we need some big companies to standardize around Clojure to jumpstart the ecosystem of knowledge, libraries, talent, etc. I’ve spoken to engineering hiring managers at fairly big companies and they’re not willing to shift to a niche language based only on technical merits but without a strong ecosystem.

If we don’t get some big companies to take on this roll the language is going nowhere.

I’m saying this because I’m a huge fan of Clojure (as a syntax and language, not crazy about the runtime characteristics) and I hope I get the opportunity to use it.

You people have lost your minds. Masks don't work (which is what every RCT concluded before Covid started), the vaccines are a poor risk proposition for huge segments of the population they're being administered to, and Covid is a virus on par with the 1968 influenza season whose threat is being vastly overstated to cajole the public into agreeing to things like banning assembly and protest.

That is what concerns me too.

Well-meaning laws that do not consider the second- and third-order effects can be easy for employers to game.

The problem isn't just "white people telling brown people what to do", though that's certainly one aspect of it. The more important issue, though, is that there's no way for developed countries to significantly "drive change" in other countries without undermining the sovereignty of the latter through some kind of bribery or debt trap or predatory trade deal.
Then you'd have a lot less theft.

Long version: when you are facing internal party conflicts, alliance between US-UK-Japan-Australia-India-Taiwan-South Korea-EU which accounts for 90% of worlds wealth and war power 10x the magnitude and is against you, floods that gets worse every year, extreme heatwave that will eventually make Shanghai unlivable, delta Covid lockdowns, capital flight, demographic crisis, supply chain moving out, internal resistance from Hong Kong and tibet and xinjiang, and young generation lying flat. You are paranoid as hell and afraid to lose control so as to not get killed.
Small construction tools (drills, portable table saws, angle grinders) is largely done at big box stores, however smaller stores sell a fair amount, plus specialty product, but the bread and butter small tools are big box stores. Quality is the same, and prices are generally lower.

IMC Financial Markets | Software Engineer, Developer Productivity ; Linux SRE | Chicago | ONSITE | Full-time | http://www.imc.com

DevProd: We're looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our small Developer Productivity team. The team improves developer experience with a particular focus on build speed, verification tooling, and codebase improvements using the Bazel build system in our Java/C++/etc codebase. In this generalist role you'll often dive deep to solve problems all across our tech stack to provide high-quality tooling and services to our internal developer community.

Primary languages: Starlark (Bazel's subset of Python), shell scripting/Linux proficiency, C++ & Java familiarity. Our technology organization is growing steadily, which means maintaining the simplicity and speed of our software builds is more valuable than ever and regularly presents new and interesting challenges.

Linux SRE: Almost everything we do is on-prem bare-metal as opposed to cloud, and we're hiring SREs with deep Linux systems experience to provision, operate, and improve our global server fleet. Both growing scale and low-latency requirements regularly present new problems to solve. The team is small and often works closely with colleagues across the org in a collaborative environment. Python and Puppet experience a plus. While there are occasional issues requiring off-hours attention, there is no on-call rotation.

To get started, email me at the address listed in my profile with "HN AUG" in the subject.

(Even though this lists ONSITE, we've been operating fully remote during COVID and are currently piloting a hybrid setup)

IMC is among the world’s leading technology-driven trading firms, and a market maker in securities listed on exchanges across the globe. High-performance algorithms, smart strategies, and collaborative teams are the core of our business.

Voltus | Frontend/Backend/Data/SRE/Systems | Remote | Full-Time

We are a team of engineers and energy experts working to get our customers paid for using less energy. Our customers are energy consumers (factories, skyscrapers, warehouses, steel mills...) who will commit to curtailing their demand on a signal from us. We aggregate those "curtailable" buildings into virtual power plants that we sell to utilities and other buyers in wholesale energy markets, splitting the revenue with our customers. Our virtual power plants are cleaner and cheaper than the coal and oil plants they replace.

Along the way we have to solve some hard problems:

- trade energy in an international patchwork of wholesale power markets
- convince a wide variety of factory foreman and building managers to cease their operations when they would really rather not
- make hundreds of commercial and industrial buildings behave like a single, reliable generator in every way

We're currently hiring for a wide variety of roles--check our posts for more info. https://www.voltus.co/join-us

Savvy | Remote | Full-time | https://savvy.insure
Savvy is completely revolutionizing the way that people shop for car insurance. Instead of filling out countless forms answering questions that nobody knows the answers to, Savvy uses a Plaid-for-insurance API to extract a person’s existing policy information and automatically retrieves offers for insurance shoppers. This transformation in the car insurance shopping experience empowers consumers to get the best deal and has helped people save millions on their auto insurance.

Savvy is already a profitable, healthy business, but we’re looking to expand our fully-remote team so we can grow the business - pulling in additional offers to help users find better deals, offering other types of insurance to help users save even more on their policies. Members of our team value extreme ownership, speed, collaboration, and craftsmanship - if these values resonate with you, you’ll fit right in!

A modern, cloud-based tech stack powers our systems behind the scenes - a mix of Kubernetes orchestrated pods and serverless API endpoints does the heavy lifting. We’re a JS shop, so JavaScript everywhere, all the time - React on the front end, Node / TypeScript on the backend (they had to stop me from using a PLV8-enabled PostgreSQL instance). Our comprehensive CI suite (3000+ automated tests on a codebase <12 months old) empowers us to have a full CD pipeline (<9 minutes from merge to live on production).

Here are our openings:

Senior Software Engineer https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4000894004

Staff Software Engineer https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4004379004

Director of Engineering https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4001031004

> Who's "value to society" people's values vary that's why we have markets so people can decide what they value by deciding to buy it.

That's a difficult question to answer generally, however it's also clearly not one that markets "solve." That's easy to see with the example of addictive drugs (which the market shows can be very profitable), unless you're willing to argue there's social value in destroying many people's lives through addiction.

That's not to say that financial value and social value aren't sometimes aligned, it just that you can't assume the former implies the latter.

> worse heavily discriminates against the older folks

The ACA is actually a wealth transfer from the young to the old, like social security, because the young pay much more than their portion of healthcare costs, while the old have a ceiling on their healthcare costs.

Whether this is good policy is for the think tanks and politicians, but after the ACA it is not true that health insurance discriminates against older Americans.
Ask HN: Equivalent of IPython.embed in C/C++?
One of the best tricks I have for debugging is putting a whole embedded interpreter in the middle of an interesting location in my Python code. Is there a similar trick I can do with C/C++? Or is there a whole different strategy that is even better than that that I should be made aware of?

The runaway heat issues, with the chemistries applied now, are mainly due to which other elements are involved. Cobalt is a huge factor.

It is true all batteries heat when charging, but this is not what I am talking about here. Simpliphi batteries do not require any cooling system because the chemistry is more thermally stable and does not have a risk of thermal runaway, even charging at high power. Tesla batteries have a cooling system not for the heat generated by charging alone, but because of the runaway thermal reactions involving cobalt.
Definitely. And a lot fewer people.
Segway was killed by being few orders of magnitude too expensive.
