It's worse than that. Digital design engineers get screwed at almost every company. Basically only Google, and Facebook in their WA offices, are paying digital design engineers the same or better than software engineers categorically. This is despite there existing a global shortage of digital design engineers that is becoming worse every year as graduation rates continue to decline.
> I've got people with the same job title with almost a magnitude of difference in actual output. Sure, on paper, they're "doing the same thing", but if someone forced me to shoehorn them into categories, that would mostly serve to punish top performes with little credentials and push them somewhere else.

Why is transparency a problem here?

The person doing orders of magnitude more work is probably only getting paid 10% more.

Transparency could possibly make this better for both the workers and the employers, or it could make them worse for both - better for one and worse for the other - better for one and no difference for the other - or no difference for either. There's lots of possibilities.

But It doesn't seem like there's reason to believe transparency is surely bad.

The general argument is that cetaceans are smart and are worthy of more protection.

At the same time, pigs can be pretty smart. Too bad they are made of bacon.
What part of the EU regulatory environment is extremely hostile to startup? I really don't know but if I had to guess my guess would be worker rights and regulators that are unwilling to let startups enter whatever industry doing whatever they want while disregarding established rules. Happy to be corrected.
That's a big selling point for me, props to the engineering team for accommodating this, I work mainly on integrations and the trickier bug reports are weird edge cases that involve a lot of getting specific descriptions of what happened and replicating it manually on a sandbox so as not to impact API calls, getting on the phone to talk through exactly what they're doing, asking for screenshots via email, clarifying conflicting understanding of in-house terminology etc. You know the story.

Being able to get them to record the exact process and scrub through it at my leisure without having to worry about hammering APIs would be a massive timesaver, replication is about 90% of the time taken to fix a bug, while the fixes themselves are usually trivial. Not having to worry about accidentally replaying a bugged-out API call is a huge plus.

In my case the major hurdle I can foresee is the majority of my enterprise-level clients use Windows and a brief look at the website says currently there's only Mac / Linux support for the replay browser. What's the timeline on Windows support?

The only other thing I can think may be an issue is that the recordings are cloud-based and a lot of the clients I deal with are finnicky about exfiltration and governance, and would be a lot more comfortable self-hosting where possible. Is that possible or on the roadmap?

This looks like a super useful tool to add to the toolbelt for sure, I would love to have all my clients using something like this to report issues. Nice work all!
Lots of cultures are allowed quotas by their governments to harvest resources other people aren’t allowed.

One such is the annual Taiji dolphin catch in Japan[1]. But native Alaskans and Canadians have certain rights too.

As long as they don’t contribute to extinction this is better than modern animal husbandry such as veal.

Agreed, this is what I explained before I said "It's not the typical hack scenario."

Then you'd be in good company with most of the referenced comments complaining about the more savory customers being doxxed by this as well.

>All children have heroes they look up to.

After reading that I sat here for a minute and racked my brain as to who my childhood 'hero' might be. I can't remember a single person.

It's amusing to me how much of intellectual work deals in a currency of status. Getting/giving credit for things appears to be the Prime Directive, at least among the observers. We've now graduated to not only stressing who is responsible but what demographic groups they are a part of.

Now, it could be that the real deal groundbreaking folks don't give a damn. Tip o' the hat to those people.

Yeah, this ain't gonna happen. Telecoms in Europe are way to tightly politically connected (at least in Germany and Austria) to force them into stuff like this.

Plus, most consumers here don't care about their IP status (most don't know what an IP is), they mostly care if they can stream YouTube and play Fortnite good enough on their connection.

I wish we could force (and fund) telecoms to extend their fiber network as at least in Germany and Austria it's awful, like going back in Eastern Europe but 15 years in the past.
Well that's just your cultural upbringing. Maybe my cultural heritage involves cannibalism, after all, humans are just meat as well
The problem with this approach is that while the team that is spending their budget on your salary probably doesn't give two shits about an extra $5-20k/yr the disconnected HR department has always been laser focused on pushing back on salary numbers for some reason.

I interviewed at a place where I knew someone who worked there and knew exactly the number they were looking to hire at, I named that number in my interview and they still tried to undercut me. I said, no I want $original_number in my response email and they caved in literally 5 minutes. Why?!?!? You found someone willing to take the job at exactly the team's budget. Shouldn't you be popping the champagne that it's painless and everyone's happy?

> There are extraction jobs going unfilled that start at $800/day. They're long days and hard work, but none of them require you to bench 450lbs.

Have you ever seen the work done on an oil drilling rig? Its a bit "upper body strength" intense. Some jobs will always end up categorized as the most intense upper body strength job; if not oil drill rig hand, it'll be drywall laborer or something else. And those jobs are too intense for most men, with the result that the supply is low and pay is very high AND the fraction of women strong enough to play along with the strongest guys in the world is essentially zero.

And its politically unacceptable to point out that WRT some physical characteristics like upper body strength, the graphs of male and female strength very nearly do not overlap.

Also there is intense societal/cultural pressure for women to be day care workers or whatever where 100% of women qualify at the skill of diaper changing.

I think the closest analogy of "only the very top physical condition making tons of money" that apply to women bodies would be female clothing model. Women models at the physical peak of perfection, think like top 1% supermodels, actually make FAR more than oil rig hands make.

Top 1% physical strength men only make $1000/day on oil rigs. The highest paid female model Kendall Jenner supposedly pulled in $22.5M/year in 2018. I don't think the problem is male sexism when women of similar physical quality to the men are making 10 times as much as the men...
Pretty much all of public health is cost-benefit analysis.

Vaccines dramatically reduce the incidence and severity of disease, and therefore the spread. It would be nice if I could say ‘prevent’ instead of ‘reduce’ there, but this is the vaccine we have for the pandemic we’re facing. Vaccine complications are about 1e-5, COVID complications (conditional on infection) are like 1e-2. Excepting non-falsifiable mRNA concerns the balance seems firmly in favor of vaccines if we’re all going to be exposed eventually.

It’s fair to argue that individuals should be able to chose to forgo that benefit based on their own views; it’s not fair to argue that there’s no benefit.
That was my experience as well. Facebook was just reduced to people I talked to on other channels every week, so I ended up not logging on to Facebook anyway. When GDPR rolled in and Facebook asked to accept the updated terms and conditions I just clicked "no" and Facebook told me that I'd have to close my account.
If you're interested in non-Javascript time travel debugging: pernos.co (which is layered over Mozilla's rr time-tracking debugger) is an absolutely amazing tool which will save you days and days of wasted development time.

Pernosco's tool is described pretty well on their website, but basically it allows you to view a program inside and out, forwards /and/ backwards, with zero replay lag. Everything from stack traces to variable displays (at any point in time in your code execution) is extremely easy to view and understand. The best part is the lightning fast search functionality (again: zero lag).

On top of this: extraordinary customer service if anything breaks (in my experience, they fix bugs within 24 hours and are highly communicative).
I am angrier about the fact that they trademarked "This".
But preserving the old solution is also important. Sometimes we have to maintain old versions so it's very helpful to be able to look up answer from that time.
Idolatry seems like an emergent property of human collective consciousness. You can try to ignore it (it's been tried), downplay it (also been tried), and ban it (and again).
Yet we still use financial markets.

Isn't the idea that we put up regulations to minimize this, just like we have restrictions on insider trading?
This might be a dumb question, since my understanding is limited to the article, but here goes.

Let's say we have the situation in the diagram, we have a two policy options, "A" and "B", and we're betting on "if we adopt this policy, will the GDP reach the target?". Let's say that currently A is unpopular, so "yes if A" has a low price, and B is popular. Now imagine an oracle enters the market, who knows that A actually has the best chance of reaching the target, but B also has a good shot. In fact, they know that "yes on A" and "yes on B" are both underpriced - just "yes on A" moreso. Ideally, we would like this oracle to put their money on "yes on A". But if they don't have enough capital to change which market leads, they'll break even (by having their money returned when B wins) if they do that. Instead, they should bet on B, which they know to be a worse option, because it'll actually fire and they'll still make some profit. The market doesn't get to learn all the information that the oracle has.

Is there some way to structure the markets so that our oracle instead bets on A?
Don't they get points for having the accepted answer on a popular viewed question? So they were getting points for several years?

Asking, as not totally up to date on Stack Overflow's points awarding algo.
I think that works provided the cadence isn't too slow. We see an average of 8 to 12 project versions per year being published depending on ecosystem. That matches nicely with the 28 day average MTTU for 2021 in the Maven ecosystem. I wouldn't want to see projects releasing less frequently than that. But I think the right answer also depends on where in the dependency chain your project tends to live. Projects near the "leaves" should aim to update faster so that downstream consumers aren't blocked waiting on them to remediate issues. Projects more toward the base of the tree might update every month or so and not worry about releasing a new version every time a transitive dependency changes, as that would be too much version churn.
Happy Replay user here. One of the most time consuming parts of bug triage and resolution is often just reproducing the bug in the first place. Replay helps us reproduce customer bugs and find their root cause much faster. I wish I had it in past roles.
i like the downvotes and lack of response. it's always a good 1-2 punch.
Looks good to me! How does your ranking algorithm work? I recently wrote an article about how it works at Hacker News, if you want some food for thought: https://felx.me/2021/08/29/improving-the-hacker-news-ranking...

Let me know if you have any questions.
Logan already answered this somewhat but I thought I'd elaborate. During replay we sandbox the entire replaying browser and trap all external IO requests using custom handlers which feed in the original recorded response for that IO request.

Replay does this at the system API level, catching network IO, disk IO, IPC, and any other system interaction done by the recorded browser.

Async dependencies are a tough nut to crack. The main query of importance there seems to be "when was this currently executing code first added to the scheduler". Time travel debugging gives us the infrastructure to answer that question in a single click (and transitively the entire chain back to the initial program execution).

However we haven't implemented specific support for these use cases yet. Our initial public beta feature set is "reversible-execution in debugging", "print statements that work in the past", and "cloud collaboration on debugging through shared discussions on individual replays". I'm oversimplifying but that's the gist.

We'll be prioritizing features to implement and user feedback is of course critical in directing that effort. Features for async debugging, more frameworks support, network monitoring, more runtimes and execution environments, time-travel watchpoints on variables and objects, and different domains such as CI-integration (having replays automatically made for CI test runs) and serverside (easily recording and replaying backend code - starting with nodejs).

The current MVP is pretty breathtaking, and there's a ton that can be done on top of it going forward, and we're excited to deliver more :)
No comment on the pigs argument, but dolphins and pilot whales are not endangered. They're ranked as "least concern".
Right? Being an old X'er myself I can tell you there's a palpable divide between those two years older than me (the Boomers) and us X'ers. Our school administrators constantly reminded us of that difference when they were lamenting just how different our class was. Now we know it wasn't just our class, it was our generation. On the other hand our kids, the Zoomers, are kicking ass!
My experience was that people stopped posting around 2014/15. After that people only liked and shared stuff.

At the end of the day the Apple App Store leadership needs to clearly make clear in the terms of service that there is a possibility Product people who internally take credit for most of these features may copy the app features and set the expectations really really low. No more handwringing on AppStore bans and copying features. Just come out and say we do it, so 3rd party developers are not glimmery eyed.
Chronological feed wouldn't help. Friend of a friend pushes "bad stuff". Friend comments to tell him it's stupid. They get into argument.

Each of your friend's comments would still give FB a "chronological" reason to bump this post to the top of your feed, enticing you to get into the mix and increase the viral engagement of the original "bad stuff".
It's because of this kind of stuff that I wanted the Epic case about anticompetitive behavior to be successful. Unfortunately, they blew past this whole issue and focused solely on the issue of the store tax and payment processing. So we're stuck with crap like this.
My understanding is that there are countless initiatives - official and unofficial - to select for black students in the form of targeted scholarships, reduced entry requirements, etc. Is that untrue? There would be hell if a single case of equally overt White preference was observed.

It would also be interesting to know how jewish enrolments affect White statistics, in that they are disproportionately overrepresented in enrolments yet may be lumped in with "Whites" in some data (implying an even lower actual White representation).

So much for the Polish Cipher Bureau. Not so many tragic hero opportunities there.
Yes and is yet another attempt to frame individuals as replaceable cogs in a machine. Each person will have widely different set of skills and experience that will affect their job performance regardless of job title. It is impossible to prove that people "are doing the same job" and will just discourage top performers.
Total numbers may have increased, but proportional numbers are still down. In 1990, 25% of the world lived in hunger, today it's under 10%. The overall decline is unambiguous.

The New World Order of Job Advertising
The conflation of empty string with a real null isn't great, but it doesn't also imply conflation of the string "NULL" which is what I'm trying to figure out. The four-character sequence shouldn't ever be considered something other than a four-character string, except for particular non-user-facing situations such as when actually writing code. Even spreadsheet software, which does all kinds of heuristics to find numbers in strings for example, doesn't treat the string "NULL" as anything other than a four-character string, to my knowledge.
Interesting idea. As others have suggested it would really help if you have an accompanying video to support the claims.

A few thoughts/questions here:

1. What markets and use-cases were you thinking of when building out this MVP? The applications could be broad enough, but it seems like you expect CLIP to handle bespoke query results and hope that they return a result that is relevant. Also what might be interesting to test if you search for something that doesn't exist in the video, can you handle that well-enough (assuming it's just a simple threshold you're picking to identify relevant search results)?
2. Licensing is something that has always piqued my curiosity when it comes to ML-based apps. Do you have a sense of the commercial-use for models such as CLIP, especially when the datasets that they were probably trained on were not permitted for commercial-use? This also applies to the raw video data uploaded by the user.
I agree there's a lot of session replay style equivilents (and rrweb is great!), though what Replay is doing unfortunately cannot be done in production in the same way. In the ideal world this level of data could be extracted from production incidents without an individual running specialized software, but with the state of technology I'd say they're both aiming to solve different problems.
Exactly my finding too!

There used to be a product called "Chronon" back 10-12 years ago... The blog spammed Dzone and a lot of other websites and refused to pay for advertising.

There are privileges that come from race completely independent of wealth. Henry Gates Jr. getting arrested for "breaking in" to his own home while black is an anecdotal example of the kind of thing I'm talking about but it is shown in the data on policing and race too.

If you agree the US has a history of slavery and racial segregation, of course it will still offer privileges to white people because that's historically how the system was setup. When do you think that stopped affecting black people?
You don't know what I am. Any fat person who has lost weight will tell you it was simple once they overcome putting the fork down and got used to hunger pains until their stomach gets small enough.

Food is cheap, that's the problem, even healthy food is cheap, not the whole food shit, but the boring stuff.

We are in agreement. "engagement" is a plague that brings out the worst of all sides of the political spectrum.

But worse than political rhetoric is the proliferation and promotion of medical misinformation.

It's resulting in the deaths of thousands of people who were duped into believing the vaccines are part of some sort of conspiracy and that bogus treatments are the only thing that work.
