> just because their country is not "international"(whatever this means) or "technically advanced" enough

I think you're misunderstanding me - it is much more likely, due to those qualities, that people on a majority American forum have personally lived in or met people from Hong Kong. An embargo heavily reduces the ability for Americans to visit or meet people people from that country. This obviously makes those people "feel" further away.

This reduction in cultural exchange between America and communist countries is a key goal of the embargo. Between propaganda and the embargo, the average American public has no chance of realistically meeting, visiting, or understanding these people and places.
I do appreciate languages that allow -1 for the last index.

Bootstrapping gcc and libc was one of the time honoured traditions I went through as a teenager with a Linux box. Learning how to set up gcc as a cross compiler to produce ELF binaries on an a.out system (or generating m68k binaries on my 486) was quite helpful later in my career when working on embedded systems. Granted, a lot of this was necessary as SLS and Slackware didn't exactly have very capable packaging systems at the time.
They're cool about openly discussing it because this is all industry standard stuff. It's a lot of work and impressive, but table stakes for being a serious player in the AV space, which is why the cost of entry is in the billions of dollars.
Because most people used ventrilo, teamspeak or mumble, which required running or paying for a server, and had limited chat/ social network functionality, and skype which was just terrible. It came at the right time as gaming hit its stride in the mainstream when people needed a place for 'local' communities that was basically frictionless and discord was there to capture that audience because there was basically nothing else.

All the features afterwards are mostly just them throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks.
Lol you wot m8? That “heavy handed response” has been NZ living a basically normal life for the past year while the rest of the world goes in an out of restrictions and mask mandates and watches the death toll climb ever higher.

The vast majority of the NZ population supports the current level 4 lockdown because of that.
HBO Max works fine for me on Linux. That didn't use to be the case, but for the past year or so, it works.

Exactly. The reason why they don't shown any difference is because games are not optimised for it yet. PS5 and Xbox now set the baseline for storage standard there will be lots of work going into that.
Also, timeshares have a terrible terrible reputation. Hence the drive to try and rebrand as "fractional ownership" or whatever.

It's quite amusing to check out the wikipedia page on timeshares (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeshare), which goes into detail on the differences between timeshares which offer deeded ownership versus a contract giving you the right to use the underlying property.

But if you go to the fractional ownership page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_ownership) it spends ages going on smugly about how actually timeshares are strictly the contract type, and what sets fractional ownership apart is that you actually have a deed, and even claims that the popularity of the (cool and amazing) fractional ownership model is causing timeshares to try and rebrand themselves as fractional ownership. But the only citation is offers for that is a link back to the timeshare wikipedia page, which outrights contradicts that. Then it goes on to describe "private residence clubs" as a time of "fractional ownership" where in some cases you don't get a deed at all (directly contradicting the immediately previous section). Apparently the distinction is that if it sells for over $1k/square foot, it's a "private residence club" and thus fractional ownership and (nominally) "good", but if it's cheaper than that it's just a "destination club" and thus a timeshare and thus (nominally) "bad". And the only citation given for this is...a single timeshare consultant.

One of these pages is decent; the other seems to have been written by the timeshare industry for marketing purposes. :)
There certainly are. I quickly wrote one 'mvp' for myself and it is the primary way I interact with twitter since several years, but it does the bare minimum I need and I never had time to clean it up and publish it (also I do not know whether anyone would pay for a cleaned up, purely chronological twitter feed with configurable filters?)

First, you can't. No one can. So don't feel bad that you can't/haven't/didn't/won't.

Second, what is "mastering"? It's not being able to crank out leetcode problems. It's much more being able to see the upsides and downsides of various architectural, design, and implementation decisions, and to not make the wrong ones.

People have wanted boomers to get out of the way for years, and with COVID, many of them might have done so. This opens up positions at the upper end of the tech ladder as well as thinning out the herd of part-time workers. Coupled with COVID concern, going (back) to school, moving and child care issues it’s not surprising there’s fewer bodies out there to hire.

Ok, 3 times per week, for the same muscle group, and a bit lower weights -- I haven't tried that before, sounds interesting
Very often commission is paid out on profit.

So it'd not be 5% of 3B but 1B (assuming 30% margin, but it's probably less on a deal this size). Still quite a nice chunk of change.

But, after that less-than-ethical companies often try to inflate costs as much as possible to even further reduce commission.
What to Do When Your Team Quits
That's not really a reliable/actionable signal overall - my previous employer had like 20,000 employees NATed behind a single IP.
The entitlement may be sourced to the fact that the author is an SEO company.

As a sidebar... SEO companies would love to see Google knocked out of its current market position. Google has gotten very good at relying on signal that SEO companies can't control. They would much prefer a more gamable engine take Google's position from it.
Oh this is billiantly stated. It is fairly rare to have both these traits, and I've even seen in large orgs where ostensibly talented engineers have neither.

To be more specific, some engineers/teams are completely driven by artificial internal metrics (like ticket counts, point estimations, etc) without a concern for technical debt, or the success of the product. Instead they operate sort of like the Chinese Room thought experiment, where they translate literal requirements from upstream, but don't actually think about what that means to a user. Instead they just plug it into known concepts in the system, and wait for the bug reports to come in, then churn through those. Over time complexity builds without hope of refactoring because there is no one to advocate for simplifying the approach as it requires both internal and product compromises. Eventually a tipping point is reached where no competent engineer will touch the system and the question becomes how long business inertia will allow the paychecks to keep clearing.

I don't think you really need to carve individual pixels. If you've got the logic worked out to ensure the light falling at (x,y) ends up at (u,v) then the part you're missing (assuming we're dealing with sunlight for now) is a function f(x,y) = (u,v) that transforms a constant density into the density corresponding to the image you desire.

Using the change of variables formula this basically means that we want h(f^(-1)(x,y)) |det Df| to be constant. Which is quite easy in 1D (it's just the inverse cumulative density function), but significantly trickier in 2D.

In 2D the problems seems to be underdetermined. One solution would be to first solve the horizontal problem for each row and then solve the vertical part for the total densities of each row. Or the other way around. There might be a way to make this optimal in some sense, but I'm not quite sure what to optimize for.

I'm not talking about what is legal, I'm talking about what is ethical. They are not the same.

I'll grant you that not every corporate policy will agree with me, but I would argue that every human with a brain has a responsibility to think about whether what their boss asks them to do is ethical, and a responsibility to raise hell if they think it isn't.

I don't believe it's ethical to abdicate this human responsibility to a corporate legal team.

Part of what these corporate policies are deliberately designed to do is condition employees into believing that "deferring to the legal team" is where their responsibility ends. They want to convince you that this checks the box for both "legal" and "ethical" so that you feel like you've done your duty, and now you don't need to think about the ethics of your work anymore. This is what I meant by corporations "brainwashing" their employees. But you're always on the hook for the ethics of your work.

I was a direct witness of such a brain washing case a few years ago.

Google was about to release a new version of Android or of Nexus phones.
(I don't remember the exact details)

And there was an insider leak, so the details of the innovation were published on internet a few days before the official announcement.

Leaks are now very common and often organized by companies, but a few years ago it was not yet the case.

I had a lunch with a few people including some Google engineers a few days after the leak. A discussion started about this topic, and the googlers said things like: "what a scandal the leak, we hate so much the person that did that, that we would have like to have him dead. If anyone in the company find who he his, we would seriously punch his face".

I was surprised, because, this was just a leak of the features, same content has what would have been disclosed in the PR announcement. Personally I would be happy that people have so much interest in my product that they spontaneously reshare early details about it. I did not see where the offense was for some random engineers of the company.

So, I asked them, and they told me that they felt that the insider "stole their announcement of their product".

I told them that it is ridiculous, because as an engineer you should like that your product is known, and that people hear and talk about it. But it should personally make no difference if the feature list/preview is published a few days earlier by a leak instead of by a random PR guy or by a big head of the company.

The only offended one might be the big head and the PR/marketing guys that had their plan ruined, but not common Google software engineer salarymen.

But the Googlers were not able to understand this idea, and then, they became hostile to me for the rest of the lunch for even having suggested that their feeling might not be justified.

So then I realized that they were brain washed by the company internal communication to feel that anything annoying for Google was bad for them personally!

There's an additional nuance to opaque random-ish tokens that can be helpful in high-traffic situations. You can essentially encode some, for lack of a better word, "routing" information (shard, region, etc) into the token when you generate it. It's still random, you still verify the whole token with your database, but you can extract the routing info and pass it to the correct backend from a mostly-stateless frontend.
What's the process like? Do you get some interview questions by them before you get to join? What's the hourly rate?
I agree that others do the same, but the observation that vocabulary somewhat affects thought is still interesting. As an example, the sentence about "defensive rationale" didn't just reformulate the sentence, it completely changed the meaning.

If people aren't allowed to talk about "crushing competition" they also can't think about it. If they can't think about it they also can't recognize it when it happens.
The real culprits here are these public sector agencies. They shouldn't use inaccessible mediums like Twitter as their primary channel of information.

We just benchmarked Cassandra 4.0, which is brand-spanking new.

The good news: C4.0 is a far better performing database than C3.11. The new GCs definitely get rid of the long tail latency nightmares:

https://www.scylladb.com/2021/08/19/cassandra-4-0-vs-cassand...

However, we also compared it to Scylla's latest release, and though C4 is better*, you can still find other CQL-compatible databases that outperform it. Especially around compactions and topology changes:

Assuming the labor shortage is also there in tech - I suspect there are shortages in some areas of tech, but not all - how are tech employers adapting? Are they willing to dispense with multi-stage, multi-day Byzantine interviewing? Such as the old: phone screen -> take home exam of some sort -> all day onsite interviews (including several whiteboard technical interviews) -> sometimes extended interview days -> followed by a few weeks before a decision is made. I just don't think a lot of job seekers want to put up with that anymore.

Really? Because the L5 claims come more out of the Ubers and Teslas than the "MBAs".
The problem (and this extends to many policies in the US as well) is that it’s deceptively easy to offload the cost of welfare benefits to employers. Paid maternity leave is just welfare for new mothers. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but it is what it is. But paying someone not to work is welfare.

However the government handing out welfare checks is not very popular. Even taking welfare brings up images of government cheese. Often middle class people won’t avail themselves of these programs even if they qualify.

So from a policy perspective we solve this by making the employer administer the welfare program and call it an “employment benefit”. Now it goes from a source of shame to a marker of status. Benefits are something enjoyed by middle-class professionals.

This all works out fine for large companies, where the law of large numbers makes these costs statistically predictable and easy to hedge. But it’s a huge unmanageable risk for small business. If you’re in a four person startup and one person goes on paid maternity leave for a year, your company is pretty much dead.
Yep, works perfectly.
Yes and no.

Via market share, competition amplifies the rewards of being better. if you make your product 1% better than the competition, you might go from 30% to 70% market share. But to do so, you have to actually gain the market share. You can't just "build it and they will come"; in many industries, someone has to go out and win the market after the product is built. And so a lot of people in companies are really, really, really, motivated to gain market share. That's what increases their share option value, and gets their bonuses. And that's what tempts companies towards lock-in and all the rest.

I'm wondering if you're very strong then (and maybe don't run that much?), since these specialized programs seems to be for people who lift a lot already
Isn't continuing to work for a company that has policies you strongly oppose an example of successful groupthink?

I suppose you could make a case for continuing if the policies are/have been/could realistically be changed.

Not really. L5 is impossible, period.

L5 which means 100.000% covered, will not happen, but the PR people will continue to use the term.
A friend worked at a UK government site that one week complained about an increase in "Russian" attempted intrusions and literally the next week issued an instruction in an unsigned email to all staff to change their password to a new password given in plaintext in the email.

The instruction, they thought, had to be a poor phishing attempt - but no, it was a genuine email from the IT department and the friend was punished (!!) for questioning the instruction and not immediately complying.

It may not have been the same password across the organisation but their's was reportedly word based and quite short.

The fact Apple missed logins to hundreds of accounts over time from a single ip registered probably to Spectrum or Verizon ISP is a little suspect. Then again, there are probably public ips with a nat with thousands of iphones behind it at times. This might be a really hard one to detect even though it's sloppy.
