This is absurd. I failed interview because I didn't know what new feature was added at Java 8 which was released ten years ago.
The article also describes some companies forming their own quasi-police departments staffed with former cops.

This country is in no danger of prosecutors around the country failing to prosecute shoplifting. But the country is in danger of these quasi-police forces extending their reach. There are people posting here working on automated checkout systems which will absolutely be used to perform more general intelligence... either for the company's or The Company's purposes.

Also... are we to believe that organized crime rings are a problem that the courts are unable to deal with because of some meddling prosecutor? Loss from retail shipping was one of the mafia's prime rackets! Jimmy Hoffa was the IBT president!

The supposition was that, if the scanning had no reporting capability, then Apple could still claim a lack of capability. They could respond to government demands with, "Sorry, our software only blocks uploads. We have no ability to get telemetry on what uploads are blocked or how often."

That proposal probably wouldn't work for a lot of reasons though. The largest blocker being that (IIUC) the NCMEC won't share a DB of offending signatures without NDA, so Apple probably can't load it onto consumer devices.
I don't really recommend it for anyone other than very bored devs, but it is very satisfying at times. The effort-to-utility ratio is honestly quite bad. Most of the *actually useful* functionality is redundant now with newer uBlock features.

I love the seratonin rush of one-click "disable 1p CSS" on an ugly website, or figuring out how to fuck with a clever-but-stupid paywall for the first time. :)

Also, the uMatrix UX is absolutely brilliant (that genius 2.5D green/red matrix).

Why unvoting? Of course it would be too easy for themselves justifying their actions blaming inequality, but if in some place life isn't sustainable for others but the super-rich... That's of course going to push people to commit more crimes.

This is just advertising, plain and simple. I doubt this group's website generates a lot of traffic and I doubt the revenue it brings GoDaddy is more than a few hundred dollars each year. But thanks to this move, GoDaddy is now trending on Twitter, has been covered by multiple news outlets, and SJWs will now flock to GoDaddy to host their websites. All the past transgressions of GoDaddy [1] (including hosting websites operated by known terrorists) will be virtue-signalled away.

> ..and double the pay.

The problems seem to be harder on the backend, henceforth more challenging and interesting. Also optimizing code for AWS directly contributes to the bottom line of a company. So if you save $10k a month because you optimized some service, it's more likely to be rewarded.

Optimizing web pages make page loads faster, but doesn't necessarily contribute to the bottom line.
I’m surprised with your opinion. I really found it designed perfectly to be a backdoor when I was reading about it. All the design decisions were there. I remember thinking, how did they think they could get away with that?

The juniper backdoor was another confirmation of that IMO.
Are children in the UK given the choice for themselves?

I believe many teenagers would choose to protect their family or decide they don’t need the jab because they have already had Covid. Allowing them the choice also puts them on equal standing with the rest of the adults that choose not to get vaccinated.

Also of note, 12 to 15 year olds in New Zealand can get immunisation, usually at the same time a parent does. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/126124007/covid19-... (New Zealand has only had a few hundred cases of Covid in the community, so it is interesting that our health services encourage vaccination for teenagers). Edit: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/covid-19-coronavirus-what-righ... says that NZ children can get immunisation or refuse to, regardless of their parents decision, if the child is deemed competent and if they fully understand what is involved in making the decision (the right applies to children of any age).

And the tl;dr sentences from the article are:

> There are three million children in total in this age group across the UK

> 6 million adults who have not even taken up the offer a jab yet [sic]

> Data from the US suggests there are 60 cases of the heart condition for every million second doses given to 12 to 17-year-old boys (compared to eight in one million girls)

> around half of children [sic] in this age group are thought to have had Covid, providing them with natural immunity anyway
I don't get how that's a better system than not requiring overlaps between timezones that are essentially too far away from each other for reasonable overlap? Other than being good for the employer of course.

I do agree that having "core hours" is very valuable with flexible hours. Core hours need to be less than a regular working day though and they should be negotiated by the team internally. Have a team of night owls? Core hours can be 4pm to 10pm for example.

Why would you review a 7pm EST PR any earlier than the next day (which is when you'd see it) and your next day happened to start at 10am only that day? Unless you had started your day late or were working later for another reason (like wanting to take half of Friday off) and you happen to see it.

Timezones suck and make things slower. Companies need to acknowledge that and not by making people work longer than they should.
I still don't get the term latinx.

Have they considered... Latin. As in, Latin America, for instance?

You would appear to have not read the article, which specifically and persuasively makes points about the semantic limitations to a human-centered definition of intelligence. generalizing it to emergent and organized behavior will help us learn about all living things behavior as well as our own.
Huh. I guess I was mistaken. I could've sworn they allowed developers to use their own rendering code at one point.

I think it's hilarious that for as long as iOS has existed, there have been people pointing out it's pitfalls in nuanced ways, and almost nobody listened. Now that everything they've said has pretty much come to pass about user freedoms, instead of accepting personal responsibility and admitting iOS flaws, people want more nuanced conversations. Utter cowardice.
I think the authors point was that if the NAS itself fails, with RAID1 you can hook a drive up to a computer and get the data. RAID5 hardware RAID will generally require the same controller for recovery, making the operation more difficult.

ZFS or MDADM don’t have the same limitation, but there are other caveats there.
I think it's been suggested for a while to test with the default themes (Adwaita, Adwaita dark, High Contrast) but everything else is unsupported. I don't see how you could test with every stylesheet available when a search seems to turn up over 1000 of them out there: https://www.gnome-look.org/browse?cat=135
I think it's a common category error. The job of an academic linguist is mostly (as I understand it) to study language as-found, but I've met a few people who take that to mean "linguists -- the experts on language -- say we shouldn't try to 'correct' differences."

It comes in a few flavours. Sometimes an assumption that linguists as people are never prescriptive. Sometimes as an argument for the respectability of established dialect (not to say this conclusion is wrong, only the argument.)

There is plenty of (mostly non-professional IME) "normative descriptivism" floating around.

You wrote a lot of stuff in response to one sentence, and seem to assume that if it triggered someone it must all be true.

Has it occurred to you that stereotypes tend to annoy people whether they are false or true?

Also, if you, off the cuff, evaluate someone you don't know at all as unsuitable for something, quite possibly they have information that tends to rule out your hypothesis, like that they were able to do in a different environment what wasn't possible in a previous one.

I am aware. What I meant was that I don't want to support Apple with my dollars directly. Since I need MacOS for work (app development), I will use a hackintosh. That way I can run Ubuntu on the side if needed. Might look into how MacOS operates in virtualbox.
Yeah. Do you have data on reinfection rates?
(Missed this earlier)

Ahhh, I had kept reading that as "hour 6" was a maximum starting point of some sort, and that you were going down to "hour 54" ?

It makes obvious sense now. Thanks. :)
That's not the case. Otherwise living organ donation would be unethical. Clearly it is ethical even though it contains much more risk to the donor than a COVID vaccination.

> function like `first` is not O(1)

The Clojure `first` function on lists and vectors is O(1), not sure why you think it isn't. Are you thinking of `last` ?
Yes, I absolutely agree with that, and that takes leadership to prioritize your employee's benefits at the same level of deliverables.

It's easier to think that employee vacations are worthless as a manager since it doesn't actually contribute to any direct profit. But if you're an employee, and that was a selling point of joining the company, it certainly sucks when the promise of vacation could never be materialized -- because work was apparently too important.
If you are unhappy with your current team or role, you are likely going to look for another opportunity. The difficulty of getting into another team within the same company is lower than getting into another brand new company.

If the interview does not go well, then the next step is to look outside.

> The need to earn money incentivizes people to work on things that allow them to extract money from others.

You're talking about things like acquiring money through force or fraud. This is not how free markets work. Free markets work by creating products that people want to buy and freely trade their money for.

If I create a widget and you want it more than the money it costs, I am not "extracting" the money from you.
> If people say that they are burned out because of a bad manager,

What would be your definition of a bad manager that doesn't include putting in inputs and not receiving expected[1] outcomes?

[1]: (or maybe "just" could be another term)
I hate javascript front-end stuff with a burning passion. I wanted to make a small widget, and somehow I needed 100+ libraries for this. The compilation/build/etc process makes no sense whatsoever, and I just type magic commands and hope it works.

I am seriously considering just using something like blazor or phoneix live view so I can ignore front end entirely.

So what's the data?

30 school districts (out of how many?) use a book Rufo doesn't like.

Any reason why anyone, aside from Rufo, should care?

Half of the nation doesn't teach sex ed because skyperson doesn't like when people bang without signing an exclusive banging agreement in public first. Half the nation teaches kids that the Confederacy was formed to protect "states' rights", carefully omitting that the right in question was to own black people as livestock[1]. But hey, 30 districts use a white-people-bad, and that's the real problem.

And what does the last part of your comment (about AZ) have to do with anything? Telling educators that 5-year-olds can absorb shitty beliefs is now a cOnTrOvErSiAl tHeOrY?

I don't even know where to start here, let's set this one aside.

So, let's focus on this question first: assuming the book you mentioned is bad, which percentage of pubic schools use it, and in which way?

[1] TX is my go-to example. They were teaching that slavery was a "side issue" in the Civil War when I was living there in 2010-2017.

I'm not even going to bother dissecting the bullshit they peddle these days. Feel free to dig in.

Texas oversees 1,247 school districts. Tell me more about the problem of CRT in schools though.

Yes! And because of this, this means you need to donate ahead of time so things can be built to replace your Samsung phone. After it's built well...what would they spend your money on? Donate early, donate often.
Reading this over, one striking thing is that in going from 14 nm -> 7 nm, they reduced core count from 12 to 8, and kept total cache per die approximately the same (256 MB L3 + various smaller caches -> 256 MB L2*). Looking at the die shot, there isn't an unusual amount of uncore, so this is either a MUCH smaller processor or a MUCH more complex core. Given that the Z series has never been particularly cost limited and has often pushed reticle size, and that by getting rid of the system controller costs will already be coming down... is this just a super-high transistor count SMT2 core?
> Basically - I'm claiming your argument is bullshit. The cost difference is driven by IP protections, not by volume of sale

As I've said before, a shred of evidence for such a confident claim would help convince me.

Also I seriously doubt Amazon hits 20 million kindles a year.

In general if a material is shearing along crystal plains the material is breaking apart. Also I am pretty sure that diamonds are polycrystalline meaning that the a diamond is composed of many crystals with different orientations, so it is generally going to break on the boundaries between those crystals not the crystalline bonds themselves. For an example think of a polycrystal like steel (which I’m a little more familiar with), the atoms in the crystal lattice can be displaced a little (elastic deformation) or the crystalline grains can move or change shape (plastic deformation). Once the crystals (grains) themselves shear that means you’ve applied enough stress to break the crystal’s bonds and the material is going to break. Some materials are different though, and sometimes crystals can slip across grain boundaries. But the bonds between the crystals are generally weaker and more prone to move/change, generally polychrystals break along those boundaries first, before the crystals themselves break apart. This is probably very brittle (and hard) not because there are no shear plains, but because there are no mechanisms for the atoms to move around without breaking chemical bonds.
Are you willing to pay more money for a better quality product?
I disagree. Either you know what's going on in your directs, or you don't know. If you don't know, you shouldn't be a manager, nor should you enjoy the salary premium that a manager gets.
It's incredibly offensive. They're projecting how English works on gendered nouns onto other language (Spanish) and then getting worked up over it. It's astounding that the people pushing the term don't see the irony.
System76 is incredible. I have nothing but good things to say. They are the future of Linux.

Re: Clevo - obligatory copy pasta from System76 Chief Engineer right here on HN [1]

"System76 UX architect here!
This vastly trivializes the work System76 does for months and sometimes years leading up to a product release. We don't simply take an off-the-shelf product that already exists, throw an OS on it, and sell it.

System76 works with upstream manufacturers (like, yes, Clevo for laptops) to determine what types of products to develop, including their specifications, design, etc. for months up to a release. These products do not exist before we enter into these conversations.

Once that has been determined, designed, and goes into production, we start on firmware. We ensure all components are working together and with the Linux kernel (often requiring changes to the components' low level interactions with the OS, since the upstream components themselves are often manufactured with the assumption they will be used by Windows).

Once that is complete, we test with Ubuntu and Pop!_OS specifically, ensuring the OS is working perfectly with the hardware. If there are any OS-specific changes to be done, we write that behavior into Pop!_OS and/or our "driver" which is preloaded on all machines (and available in any Ubuntu-based distro, Arch, Fedora, etc.), with the intent to upstream that into Ubuntu, GNOME, and/or Linux itself as quickly as possible. When this is more generic like ensuring HiDPI works great out of the box, this actually ends up benefiting competitors like Dell's XPS 13 probably as much as it benefits us, but we put in the effort to file the bugs, track them, write the code, and get it upstreamed.

Once all of that is complete, we finally offer it for purchase and market it with all of our pretty photographs, sales pages, etc.

What ends up happening, then, is Clevo offers a machine with a similar-looking chassis for sale as a barebones laptop. This is the result partially of the decision making System76 has made for what to produce in the first place. These products, however, do not contain any of the firmware or driver work that System76 has invested in. They do benefit from the nice photography and advertising System76 has done, and since they look similar, people assume they're going to get the same machine for cheaper "directly from the manufacturer."

Edit: regardless, this is a bit beside the point of the linked blog post, and is also becoming less and less true as we work on designing and manufacturing our products completely in-house."

For some reason, Content Blockers on iOS only work on Safari. Other browsers on iOS are not allowed or able to implement them.

uBlock Origin is also more fully featured than Content Blockers, which don't have the on-demand whitelisting features and toggles. However, since uBlock Origin is only available as a browser extension, it can only be used with a browser that supports extensions. No browser on iOS is able to support uBlock Origin.

Safari 13+ on macOS also no longer supports uBlock Origin due to platform restrictions: https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158
Fundamentally languages have been evolving in a reductive manner, which is why adding syllables to terms like in "Latino/Latina -> Latin-x -> Latinx+" won't last. People will quickly eschew these terms for things that are easier to pronounce.

There's no malice in this - just a natural evolution of language towards efficiency.

As such its an endless cycle: new stuff is introduced to everyday language then reduced to something simpler - often using words that fell out of use, shadowing them with new meaning.

It's quite possible the new word for "Latinx+", whatever it is, will simply be considered genderless - if societal pressure manages to displace the old terms.
No biggie, I've seen lots of people in car modding communities who use that term casually and don't know where it came from or why an Asian person would find it rude, so I just try to educate people :)
A news summary is:

- until 2008, the theme was "Western Enlightenment"

- 2008 - 2016, Obama exploited intersectionalism

- 2016 - 2020, Trump awakened the US to the external threat of the CCP and the internal threat of Marxism

- 2021 - now, Biden is engaged in gerrymandering using illegal aliens to keep the Democratic/Marxist party in power forever

- 2022, Democratic party destroyed in mid-term election

I want to expand on measuring "innovation":

Rather than summarily declaring that "filing for IP protection" IS "innovation," the empirical thing to do would be:

1) Collect "ground truth": assemble teams of "experts" in various disciplines, and give them all lists of companies. The teams could be as small as one. They score each company as "innovative" or "not innovative" in some given period of time.

If they cannot agree, then you can stop right there. If the teams do not agree with each other, then you can stop.

But let's say you do get lists of companies that are agreed as "innovative" or "not innovative."

2) Try out your metric of innovativeness, be it "patents" or "copyrights" or whatever. What is your AUC?

Until you do that, you can't say you have a metric of innovativeness.
IIRC that L3 was eDRAM, so it's a bigger change than you might imagine.
