Hey Hugo, do you have an email I could reach you at? I've been thinking/working on these problems for 3 years now and would love to find some smart people to partner with to further develop the ideas. I don't have much to show publicly right now, but https://intpub.org/ (soon to be scipub.app) is the start.
Yes. These apps also have happened to WhatsApp.

I've was a union electrician for a few years.

Get in early. Get in a union. 25-30 years to retirement in most unions. You don't want to be 60, and still in construction.

The test is easy, but figure 1000-2000 guys are taking the test too, so you need to get most of the questions right to get in. An oral interview counts for 1/2 the hiring process.

Just say you love working with your hands--love unions, but understand the needs of the contractors too.

Remember it's construction. You're around guys all day long. It's brainless work, and you will never have to act cheery when the owner's spoiled kid comes to work.

I do not recommend non-union construction at all.

Then again---hide in school for a long time. I loved college. It was cheaper 25 years ago though, and not that fun, but much better than any job I've had.

Your interest will change as you age.
I'm guessing it's because the AC voltage will introduce noise on the DC low voltage current.

But like everything else it depends.
Is the DC feeding something like a lightbulb or a fan? Then it probably won't matter.

Does the DC feed something that has a good low pass filter or is it an expensive AC cable with good shielding? Then it might also not matter.

None of the above should be considered be professional advice and it's probably a good rule of thumb to never mix wires like that.
Citation for the study? The Indians also used ivermectin to great effect to reduce their wave 2 months ago.
Yes. The radio frequency spectrum is a commons too.
Sure, that's one gene that helps. Saying that you only need that to get to a podium would be a stretch.

And there might be other genes. Someone missing this beneficial change might have other helpful mutations. As even the article points

Or are you saying that Track programs should genetically test for this gene and drop whoever doesn't have it?

There are relatively few vegetarians and vegans, so they aren't a real threat.

You have still missed my point. The American dream was an effective, real thing for a long period of time. Most Americans today are descendants of poor immigrants that worked hard and gave their children a better quality of life. This wasn’t “a lottery” and your characterization of it as such is both historically misinformed and just ideological in nature.

As I said, the issue is that this hard work no longer results in progress. The system has become broken. This is easily observable via a bevy of statistical measures like inequality and college costs.
You just gotta believe :P

And yeah, sometimes the outputs are funky, and almost all of the time there are artifacts. Removing them would mean training a much higher-capacity model (like StyleGAN2) for much longer (like a week) and since this was just a hobby side project to put on my resume, I felt fine calling it at "good enough".

Personally, I like the constant AI weirdness and artifacting, it feels charming to me :)

Do you mean by "we know we’re not what companies are looking for even with fancy CS degrees", simply that they're looking for identically qualified people that aren't black? If so, I'm extremely sorry to hear this, and disgusted that its happening. I can't actually think of anyone I worked with who'd knowingly treat or value a black colleague or interview candidate any differently, but maybe that's white blindness on my part, maybe its been going on and I didn't notice. In case this is helpful info, I know that Capital One tech has robust D&I policies and seeks to redress the balance. They sponsor an organisation called "Blacks in Tech". Their senior management seem to say it makes good business sense and provides competitive edge, to reward talented people who happen to be black, whom other employers are too stupid/racist to consider hiring and/or promoting quick enough once hired. so, if I were a black American looking for a job in tech I'd look at Capital One if struggling to get anywhere with other employers.
You are correct. I made a statement that expressed opinion as fact.

It is, however, an advantage that some folks have, and my suggestion is that we should not be required to deliberately hobble ourselves, just because everyone does not have the same advantage.

Of course, a hiring corporation has every right to ignore things like this, and they likely won’t go out of business, as a result. They, may, however, miss talent that could take their business to “the next level,” and risk hiring folks that have become expert at “gaming the system,” and presenting style, over substance.
Half the U.S. voting population also believes the Earth was created in six days, 6000 years ago. Appeal to a large segment of the population doesn't work when you're as fucked as the USA is.

Trump would've gotten nowhere without the troll campaign and troll culture spawned by GamerGate. When you boil it down to its essence, the darkest period in recent American history happened because some internet people were assmad that a woman wrote a fucking video game.

As for Biden, the rest of us could just look to the horrors Trump wrought and vote for the other guy in 2020. No misinformation necessary.

> That's quite a game to play, one of mutually assured destruction.

I don't think so. These are arms races and they happen all the time, even in nature. This particular struggle is about principles.

For example: many people, myself included, think advertising is morally wrong. Are we going to ask the billion dollar industry to cease and desist? That'd be pointless. Better to make ad blocking technology that solves the problem whether they want it or not. They develop countermeasures, people develop countermeasures against their countermeasures. It goes on and on. We're winning so far.

In this case, it's a politico-technological arms race. People don't agree with whatever it is the government's doing so they make technology that prevents them from doing it. Government makes new laws to neutralize the technology. People make new technology to work around the new laws. And so on. With every iteration, the government must become more tyrannical in order to maintain the same power it previously enjoyed.

Technologies such as Monero actually bring the world closer to the principles the US was founded on, principles it apparently forgot about. Will the US remember its roots? Or will it turn into China? That's the political choice the existence of this technology forces the government to make.

> I suggest that instead technology be devised to help expose the information necessary to pursue crime and criminality under mutually reasonably circumstances.

That's idealistic. Every day governments prove that they are not fit to have this power. That they'll twist those circumstances until they are no longer mutually reasonable. They are corrupt. They will abuse this access for personal reasons. Global surveillance personnel are frequently caught spying on the people they know for personal gain, including their spouses.

I refuse to give them any power at all if it means even one person will be abused. Suffering at the hands of crime is one thing, suffering at the hands of the people who were supposed to protect you is an indignity without measure.

Low interest rates means there isn't a lot of easy money to be made and not a lot of people who expect their income to rise (which is partly western demographics), and since we are talking nominal, not much inflation.

None of these things look artificial to me. This is an argument that central banks should be doing more debt purchases, not less. The long game of the central banks is to raise long term rates (the reverse of the current situation), but they either haven't been successful at it or think things will improve on their own.
There is `xq` today, which parses XML like `jq`. I think that it is relatively unknown because it is part of the `yq` package for parsing YMAL. So just install `yq` via PIP and you'll get `xq` as well.

There is also `xmlstarlet` for parsing XML in a similar fashion.
you can show two sets have the same number of elements without having an intrinsic notion of "number" - find a bijection between them, mapping every member of set A to set B and vice versa, and you know you have two identically-sized sets without doing any counting.

>It’s like if I’ll have to sell sneakers to make ends meet after college anyways

Just for what it's worth, I (not black, but from a different group that is not looked upon kindly by HR types) took the route of EEE Degree -> PhD (dropped out) -> Software Engineer at Relatively Elite company (not FAANG, but about as good as we have in Melbourne, AU) -> running eCommerce businesses from home (selling used video games on eBay as well as a USB oscilloscope I designed as a student, mostly through Amazon).

If you're smart and skilled, you can make an absolute killing doing something that stoners or less intelligent people do to "get by", and at the same time spend massive amounts of quality time with your (probably at this stage future) wife and kids.

This.

IQ !== Success.

I used to go to college with two very bright people. I couldn't catch up with them. Because one of them was ridiculousely intelligent and the other was up there close.

20 years on, the first one is working at Mcdonald's. Yes, I couldn't believe it too. The second one is a teacher (not that this is a bad job), who told me he hates the job and how much he messed up his career.

For me it's persistence/perseverence >> IQ / Intelligence.

If you have someone who is average IQ but is willing to go through hell to achieve what they want, then I'd rather go for the average IQ girl/guy.

Another thing that doesn't get mentioned when discussing IQ and race is humility. If you have a high IQ and think you can do better than other people/race why not invest that gift and give back to this world. Why not be humble about it and help your fellow humans making this world a better place. Sitting there and claiming you are better than X and Y because your race is Z shows how weak you really are. Be humble about what you have and invest your time and effort in becoming better as a person, be a role model for your family, son, daughter, your community and your country.
> “You don't need this overengineered goo for your project.”

k8s is probably a great excuse to think how to compose your infrastructure and software in a declarative way - I'm still fascinated by https://demo.kubevious.io/ - It just made "click" when playing with that demo - it's not goo it's a different operating system and a different mindset.

You can do 80% of that with docker-compose / swarm for small projects but:

If you read HN you are in a huge bubble - gruelsome patched tomcat7 apps on Java8 with 20 properties/ini/xml config files are still popular - hosting things in docker or doing ci/cd is still not mainstream. At least in Europe in the public sector stuff where I was involved.

Sure you can mock it - but the declarative approach is powerful - if you can pull it off to have it across all your infrastructure and code with ci/cd and tests you are fast.

This alone correctly implemented https://github.com/adobe/rules_gitops solves so many problems I can't count the useless meetings we had over any of these bullet points, bazel alone would have solved most major pain points in that project. Just by beeing explizit and declarative.

Don't believe the hype but it's a powerful weapon.
Great comment. As you say, denying the research outright is playing a similar tune to those who would abuse the research to support pre-existing notions about everyone's rightful places in society.

We should be extremely skeptical of any argument that serves solely to justify the positions those in power, which is a typical endpoint for too many discussions of genetics. Using science to validate the status quo and describe certain economic and social classes as superiors/inferiors is a cruel perversion, but outright denying the science is similarly dishonest and not very convincing either.

Genetics are powerful, but only a piece of the great puzzle underlying human traits and behaviors. Especially when considering life at the individual level, you can't easily make any declarative statements about someone's potential, or even clearly discern the total effect of genes on their most basic traits like height without also considering a host of other factors with similar weightings. Beyond the ambiguity surrounding how genes and environment conspire to produce our traits, as Chomsky argues, the traits that are rewarded with wealth and power are often arbitrary: they are certain traits that can be identified in those who already have wealth/power in a self-justification of the existing hierarchy.

So even if we take the science at face value, it is quite a stretch to say that the science supports the current stratification. The two are not casually linked.

> It can be complicated, but usually it's not.

The usual story. Everything works, until it doesn't.

If you are a huge corp with good engineering you can have people dedicated to understanding k8s and then it kinda makes sense. They can spend time to learn it really well so that they have necessary chops to deal with problems when they happen.

On the other hand, if you are smaller company, you are more likely embracing this new idea of developers running everything including k8s, you are in for a trouble.

They will know how to make it work but that's about it.

Because if you need to learn everything you actually learn nothing very well. And there certainly isn't enough time in the world to learn everything in development.

My philosophy is applications must be built for when it breaks and it is unacceptable to run an application with a team that will not be able to fix it if it breaks.

**

Couple of years ago I joined a small group of teams of developers (together about 40 devs) who together maintained a collection of 140 services, all with same or very similar stack (Java, Spring, REST, RabbitMQ).

They had trouble delivering anything to prod because of complex dependencies, requirements, complex networking, complex process to find out where stuff broke between 7 layers of services between the original user call and the actual execution of their action.

I rolled my sleeves and put everything in a single repo, single build, single set of dependencies, single version, single deployment process, single layer of static app servers.

I left after the team was reduced from 40 to 5. There was no problem delivering anything (we had 60 successful deployments in a row when I left) and the guys who were left admitted they are bored and underutilized because of how easy it is to make changes to the system.

These were still the same guys that were advocating for microservices. From what I heard they are not advocating for microservices anymore.

Can microservices be done well? Sure they can. But it takes additional effort and experience to do it well. Why make your life difficult when it is not needed?
If you make the html well formed, xpath also works great. Great stuff if you ever need to pick html apart. Used this quite a bit when microformats were still a thing together with jtidy.

Jq is very loosely inspired by that, I guess. Might come full circle here and use some XSL transformations ...
The wastewater cleaning is certainly better for marine life.
This is an interesting observation and matches with my experience. I'd add:

1) There's a race to the bottom with services in terms of pricing. For example, NHS GPs have strict time limits within which to provide a particular service. These time limits have reduced over the years and so individual doctors are capable of providing a better service but are can't given the constraints. People rarely are willing to pay more for a service unless they know that the quality level will be higher. With services, it is not clear that a higher price will translate to higher quality.

2) Most services are not chosen based on quality. They are chosen based on perception, brand, reviews, pricing and a whole host of other things. Often the most profitable services are the ones who can manipulate these variables best rather than the ones who actually provide a great service. If there is a sole accountant who is fantastic at accounting but poor at marketing and review collection then they are going to struggle and may end up joining a firm who constrains their time such that can only provide the minimum viable service.
They are definitely using ASP.NET Core, most likely version 3.1 LTS.

EF Core (like ASP.NET Core) ran on .NET Framework until version 2.1. Everything after that requires .NET (Core).
.NET Core might be portable, however it is a tiny subset of what .NET Framework is capable of.

Additionally lots of enterprise shops, despite what HN crowd thinks, are mostly on Microsoft stacks, so that .NET application is going to connect to other APIs and stuff not available on GNU/Linux.

Then, many companies use VMs as desktops for contractors, you are just not allowed to plug anything on their network, so you are using Visual Studio via RDP/Citrix.

As an example, in life sciences most of the laboratory hardware only has APIs available via COM/.NET Framework.

> It's not nearly as rare as all that, your basic OpenWRT-running 5-port router has the same setup.

IME, this kind of divided switching/routing setup became ubiquitous after gigabit became widely available. I remember that while buying my previous router (Cisco Linksys E4200), this architecture was advertised explicitly, and it was exclusive to E4200 in that generation of Cisco/Linksys routers.

The main firmware of E4200 was prone to crashing under some circumstances, so having a good network sans DNS was a good trade-off back then.
