I don't think that anyone actually believed that opening trade with china was going to "spread liberal values" there. That's what we were told instead of the truth, which is that we opened trade with china so that american companies could produce goods without having to comply with those pesky american labor regulations.

I mean, my university still has separate Chemistry and Astronomy departments, but at yours following your preferred nomenclature, how do they distinguish among all the resulting departments called stuff like "Applied Philosophy", "Applied Philosophy" and "Applied Philosophy" ? Or is it that for some reason you think only Computer Science should be singled out in this way?
Lorde got asked a similar question on Hot Ones. She basically said that early in her musical career, she cared a lot about that (iirc she did submit things to Genius), but nowadays she thinks it's more fun to see how other people interpret her songs.

Most of the time I spent on Genius was fixing incorrect lyrics, unfortunately. They'd often be copied from azlyrics or other shoddy predecessors, with errors unique to those third-party sources but not present in liner notes or other official sources. Unlike say, Wikipedia, Genius doesn't require or clearly associate sources with their content, so it's not easy to show your work, check for accuracy, and prove the lyrics are incorrect.

Meanwhile, most of Genius's featured content involved artists explaining their own lyrics. It's a minority of artists, to be sure, because curated content isn't going to feature a majority of artists, but it comprised most of their branded work.
Apple M1: Crowd-Sourced Reverse-Engineering Doc Published
I would be strongly in favor of some kind of professional license, where every X years you must retake some exam, similar to the P.E. license in other engineering disciplines.

Benefits:

- Employer: by scanning for resumes with this license, the employer saves time and money that would instead be spent on technical LeetCode-esque interviews.

- Employee: a singular license would make you more attractive and compel a higher salary. You wouldn't have to grind LeetCode for 3 months before a job hunt.

In my "utopia", FAANG/S&P 500 companies + universities (MIT/Harvard/Stanford/etc.) would band together to form a third-party committee and standards board that would design and proffer this exam. Having those big names in charge would give it instant credibility and make it the de facto S.W.E. P.E.

The median US income is about $30k, so most people were eligible for some if not all the money. But everyone (that was laid off) was eligible for the $600 per week unemployment benefit, and the expanded child tax credit also provided a lot of cash. Child poverty in the US was cut in half by some metrics over the last year - these were very impactful programs for most people.

#3 "We do use a third party to operate our email service, so we remind you to carefully read #1 again."

#1 "If privacy is of utmost concern, we recommend that you refrain from communicating any personal data to us since plain-text email is not a safe media for communication. If necessary, use PGP-encrypted email."

So, it sounds like emails are stored on a third-party server, encrypted or not? This is sort of unavoidable for email as I understand it.

I see some other folks chimed in here too, but I wanted to add my 2¢.

I see the appeal you are outlining, but I can't help but feel like the demonstrated solution is really just programming under a different moniker, but one that doesn't align with the spirit of the posed question. Is bash a programming language? I guess so.

I've been programming professionally for 7 years. I know `cat`. I don't know those other things off the top of my head.

I could implement a solution much like the Java candidate though, with information that I have memorized through years of constant use.

Being clever and novel is a cool party trick, but ultimately only proves that you are clever and have novel ideas. That could be great for an organization, but it might also be the wrong fit for whatever role is being considered.

Your final sentence highlights a bit of hypocrisy (no judgement!)

> It's not all algorithm memorization that counts.

But that's _literally_ what the bash solution was. Memorization of an algorithm, albeit a very optimized one!
AMD would not be jumping in cold, as the article says: "AMD is an Arm licensee and has quite a bit of experience with Arm architectures, dating back to its K12 architecture that never came to market as planned back in 2017. Fast forward to today, and AMD does ship Arm cores, but they come as small microcontrollers for relatively simple tasks, like the company's in-built Platform Security Processors (PSP) that perform security functions to harden the company's CPUs."

One thing you learn about working in crypto is that everything is aggressively front run: from large crypto funds to small prop shops, almost every single firm is leveraging non public information in order to profit.

Almost everyone naturally falls into meaningful relationships without “making them happen.”

For example, did your dad have to approach 200 women on the street to meet your mom, or did they naturally meet through a social event or a friend group?

If you need to go to such extreme lengths just to form meaningful connections, consider looking inward. It’s probably a consequence of not having any hobbies where socialisation is normal.
Of course. Take Sweden as a (admittedly extreme) example. There is very little regulation of the labor market, for example no minimum wage. All those things are agreed upon in negotiations between unions and employer organizations.

But unions set the rules for the labor market as a whole, not just workplaces where the workforce had unionized.

An Amazon warehouse with zero union employees would still have to have union conditions/pay for all employees. It wouldn’t be possible to not do it. And it’s not possible as an individual employee to negotiate a contract with worse terms (the equivalent of taking work under a minimum wage level).

So in Sweden there is no recognizing unions. It’s like recognizing labor laws. Not optional.
A rational person compares risks on an absolute scale first. Out of all the things that could happen on a given day, is getting murdered a real concern? For people in the U.S., it's not really worth worrying about unless you have some other risk factors for murder, like criminal activity.

If you are selling lion repellant that makes a lion attack 80% less likely, that's not something I'd be interested in.

That being said, it's great that some countries have driven a small risk down to oblivion. Not sure that firearm laws have much to do with that, though. Probably more to do with policing structure.

Another perspective on static blocks is what they replace/help migrate away from. Static blocks are one of the last pieces of the puzzle holding some projects (or at least some particularly old legacy objects in those projects) from migrating to the new class syntax. For better or worse the classic Constructor Function pattern of building objects in JS was full of static initialization code (as it was an easy thing to do in that pattern). Static blocks bring back a way to do that in class syntax while adopting the better scoping rules of class syntax, helping more projects move away from Constructor Functions to class syntax.
The Austrian School of economics is just bad. Everyone knows that Keynes' policies are bandaids that make the wound recover faster. Meanwhile Austrian economists believe that people must let the wound heal as slowly as possible because of a tendency toward masochism and sadism.

The truth lies in neither. The biggest economic problems stem from rigidity. Money has such an extreme degree of rigidity, it is capable of traveling through both space and time unhindered. It's a time machine and massless particle all in one.

The reason why Austrian economics appeals to some people is either because they have an anti government axe to grind and want more trivial reasons to blame the government, they want to be on the receiving end of a regressive money system (gold bugs), macroeconomics are often abandoned in favor of microeconomics which hides the fact that local decision making can still result in seemingly coordinated failure and finally because they have mistaken moral beliefs about an amoral system most notably the myth of the protestant work ethic and the belief that the promise of work is their own personal property and it should be their right to delay redeeming that promise for all eternity.

I will repeat it again. There are no morals in economics. Anyone who worships savings and frugality in monetary terms is worshipping poverty in real terms. Eat your economic cake, it will be bigger tomorrow because of that and when somebody needs you to show restraint and want to borrow your slice, they'll tell you.

Compiler Features for Kernel Security
> Even if you do get proficient at this, there is still the problem that reading CL is not enough - it's CL + custom macro/DSL systems per project.

That is true and expected.

Because if you "got" CL it means you start any larger application by writing a perfect language in which to write that application.

But with power comes responsibility.

And this is where a lot of Lisp projects fall short.

It is much more difficult to make a mess in a poor language like Java where you can basically ctrl-c/ctrl-v your solution than it is in super powerful language like Lisp that gives you no guidance on how to structure your application. Especially if you also have intelligent people on the project.

Because intelligent people can make even more complicated constructs with which to shoot their feet.

I wish every CL project had one guy with a long beard that can bring wisdom on how to deal with an infinite power of Lisp.
I don't agree with the specifics here, but the first point is key. Scale matters. Emergent effects are real. Large companies need different rules than small companies. It's ok if the line is drawn imperfectly, so long as the bulk of labels are reasonable.
"They just do good user research before creating a solution presumably."

That would kind of be the point, right? Rather than saying, "Just do X", they try to understand the problem first and don't just throw out ideas that solve what they a-priori think the problem is while also being what they think of as easy to implement.

> really curious how importing works and all.

So was I, so this is what I determined, on top of the official docs.[1]

On deno run of a script, it will download referenced imports and put them into a cache directory with a hash of the name. On a UNIX-like, this seems to be in ~/.cache/deno/deps (there's also a ~/.cache/deno/gen for the TS to JS stuff). Subsequent runs do not seem to download the scripts, but instead use the cached hashed versions. There's probably a way to blow out or overwrite the cache with newer download with a deno command, but I'm not sure what it is.

Compiling bundled the cached dependencies, so they aren't downloaded on run. Importing from local files is also possible, as noted in the docs I linked.

I'm happy to be corrected to supplemented on any of that info, I would rather know the actual way it works than persist in a slightly wrong assumption. :)

If you want to know what Bock has said about the subject, Google for Laszlo Bock along with some terms like "hiring" and "predictive".

His book on the subject is here:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22875447-work-rules

It says that brain teasers and unstructured interviews don't work. Structured interviews do.

So what's a structured interview? It's a standardized set of predefined factual questions determined by relevant domain experts to be directly relevant to the job. In effect, a custom standardized test. He says the problem with them is that interviewers don't like using them.

Oh, and he says the problem with unstructured interviews--which interviewers prefer--is that the best predictor of the interview's result is an impression that the interviewer forms in the first ten seconds, and that impression has zero predictive power about the candidate's suitability for the job.

Google a little more widely to find more general research in this area.

For example:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/240237107_The_Role_...

...which says the best predictor overall is general cognitive ability (what we usually call IQ)

and

https://www.academia.edu/32446971/Big_Five_Personality_Dimen...

...which says that two of the Big Five personality traits (namely, Conscientiousness and Emotional Stability) are good predictors of good job performance.

IQ, by the way, is strongly correlated with another of the Big Five, generally called Openness.

So if we believe all of this research, then what you sould be looking for is objectively-verifiable skills directly related to what you expect the job to actually entail, combined with general intelligence, conscientiousness, and emotional stability.

By the way, I score low in emotional stability, so I have to rely on the other traits.

If you find that my characterizations are grossly wrong, feel free to trash me over them and I will thank you for improving my understanding and humbly apologize for wasting your time.
That's not entirely accurate. You have the option of sending that audio data to Apple for processing (which is set during the setup for new iPhones and was a preference set when the update was released). It's completely optional and does affect what options are available through Siri and which ones aren't. Additionally, you have the option to change this setting after the fact and changing it deletes all the voice data stored on Apple's servers. You do have to trust that Apple is doing what they say when you choose to do that but it's not a requirement.
It's fine for professional things, too. Just follow the 11th commandment and you'll be fine.
> But Disney doesn’t just make movies, they own ABC, and ABC has a news channel. NBC Universal puts out movies and wants access to the China market, but they also run MSNBC and NBC News. CNN is owned by the same conglomerate as HBO and the Discovery channel. So far, all these news stations still run critical reporting about China, and good for them.

It's easy to brush off Disney not putting Chinese villains in their movies as inconsequential, but this could easily extend to influencing American media. It can start with preventing criticism of Chinese domestic issues, but can easily extend to psy-ops or pretty much anything. I don't have faith that large corporate CEOs have any well defined line they're willing to draw when it comes to getting orders from China.

We've already seen the influence China has over the WHO, which is odd since they only contribute $57M to the organization, compared to $116M by the US, $29M by Germany and $22M by UK. [0]

What about college?
Sort of, except the difference in scale is important. there's a lot fewer candidates in interviewing, so each false negative is more significant.

The false negatives in the content moderation process are essentially irrelevant to anybody other than the person being moderated because there's enough other content being generated, so there's very little downside to being overzeaous in content moderating. at anything other than the very largest companies, being overzealous in rejecting interviewees will severely limit your talent pool.
I mean a blacklist system like Twitter's, where you block a website forever. Pinterest would be the first to go.
I know it is. That's not the point. The point is that you need to know CLOS with its many rules to understand many CL code bases, just like you need to understand C++ classes.

The fact that C++ classes are part of the C++ core langauge while CLOS is a library doesn't really change this aspect.
You have to see it as a way to enable applications to inform and steer the kernel towards their scheduling policies. For instance, one of these policies could very well be the current Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS) Linux already uses[1]. And alternatively, you can have any other policy that reduces context switching, if this is your target.

This has certainly influenced government spending and interest rates as well. There is little differentiation between down times and good economic times, when normally the policy is to ‘save’ during good times to be able to handle the bad times.

Markets with very heavy debt and forward speculation have a way of delaying any sort of consequence for actions. It’s almost like a juggling act, which so far has been able to keep going for so long that people are starting to realign their view of moral hazards and not punishing bad debt.

China is a great example of this but the US pioneered this stuff with the massive finance industry which is built on this sort of complex financial maneuvering, creating an abstraction layer disconnected from market corrections.
Who does this? I haven’t seen that happen even once. They are completely orthogonal? Both have their uses.

No, I still actually do not follow, nor does this seem equivalent to what you said.

"sale_price < real_company_worth"

This statement in that conditional seems like it could never be true.

If sale_price == total_money_raised_owed, then real_company_worth <= total_money_raised_owed because sale_price = max(total_money_raised_owed, real_company_worth).

Therefore, inside the conditional, sale_price = total_money_raised_owed >= real_company_worth, therefore sale_price >= real_company_worth which is the opposite of sale_price < real_company_worth.
