Efficient Onboarding process for a marketplace [request]
Hi, As the title says it, I am looking for any resources* to learn how to establish an efficient onboarding process for Professional partners & the customers of a marketplace.

*: Could be template, guideline, videos, books, blogs, sites, well known strategies...
I know at Shopify, we hire outside US/CA/EU. But I also know some locations we cannot hire for due to security concerns. However, unlike most FAANGs we are 100% committed to being fully remote.

To be honest, I don't think Linux being the "One True Kernel" is really worthwhile, and the benefits of adding Rust to the kernel outweigh the downsides.

There are plenty of other kernels available for embedded work, and my understanding of Rust in the Linux kernel is that it's mostly drivers, which seems like it would be optional for your use case.

That said, I've not done much embedded, I may be misunderstanding something.
Hell yeah! I have often thought about open source in the agriculture world. I would love to contribute to this space.
You can't run a retail store and a space company with the same metrics for judging the people that run the place. Very different environments call for very different ways to manage people.
> What I consider soft is lashing out over the smallest emotional slight, which Steve was famous for. I wish we would all stop pretending that the platonic ideal of a leader is having the emotional maturity of a toddler.

Exactly. The lesson of this encounter wasn't anything more than: Steve Jobs had power and was willing to use it at the drop of a hat to puff up his ego over a tiny thing. Maybe there was something strategic behind that or maybe he just had anger issues and enough power that he didn't have to do anything about them.
There was a thread not long ago where a poster was wondering why cities such as Nashville and other in red states didn't have a great tech scene.

I too keep making things out of checkboxes and radio buttons; increasingly my tool-like UIs are dominated by variations on the label/input CSS trick. Naturally, that is what I thought the article was about; but everything the author does can be done equally simplistically with canvas, webGL, divs, text; the demos are more about the parsing of the input than the display technique.

> there is no way to be in shape while eating crappy food all the time

While I agree with most of what you said, that point is false.

The obscene Michael Phelps five hour swimming diet included, among the 10k-12k daily carb heavy calories, such things as:

"Three slices of sugar coated French toast."

"Three chocolate-chip pancakes."

"Half a kg of pasta."

"Two large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayonnaise on white bread"

"Energy drinks that supplied him with another 1,000 calories." (which means they were sugar heavy)

"Half a kg of pasta"

"An entire pizza"

The reason he could be in such amazing shape while eating that garbage, is because he was burning it off with the five hours of daily swimming.

There are people that license software under MIT or BSD licenses that gets upset when someone else runs with it or makes it proprietary. If you don’t want someone else to just dump you and run with your code without upstreaming contributions, you should at least use GPL. It won’t prevent them from forking it and never giving back, but at least you can take their contributions and merge them back into your own.

homeschooling is a choice available too, and i'll tell you one thing: most homeschooled kids i worked with were from poor families, almost always single-income and often with this income being close to minimum wage. Mostly rural (or rather in small, 100 to 500 hab towns).

The context in which i met them was great, and their parent had to be involved to put them there, so i guess i received the "best" examples of homschooled kids in my area, but they did not have any major issue (often missing some in STEM knowledge, but all of them with a logical/creative mind that make learning hisghschool math a breeze, and anyway, our association was there for this exact issue)

> What is an "evented parser"?

Also knowns as a “streaming parser”, its a parser that takes in a data stream and produces a stream of events which client code can handle; it allows more flexible handling than deserializers, including ability to handle arbitrarily large input. SAX is a streaming/evented parser API for XML, and there are similar ones for other formats.

Yeah, I feel there are many people who license as "MIT/BSD but please pretend it's LGPL/GPL3" - they want maximum adoption BUT ALSO want to remain in control and have code contributed back.

To be fair, even the FSF has done the "take the ball and try to go home" with the GPL3 in some ways - not liking aspects of what they previously allowed.

There are thousands of different approaches that could be developed based on who Jobs was.

But a better approach, that really depends on a lot of things. More than just words to say in the meeting context.

Anyway...

Jobs cared a lot about people as capital; he also cared about impact, creativity, and especially insight. He admired the big picture, but a huge problem for him was that he couldn't easily live in it. I think this was extremely frustrating and kept him floating in the limbo-like DMZ between daily details and the big picture.

So here's an approach I would have liked to try:

"OK, so you just heard about the software and how we think it's pretty neat. But you don't want the software. We know you're not that dull. It's really a story about our people, the developers who know Apple customers, and who have helped us build up a cult following. And we have new concepts underway that are even better. If you knew what we had planned, in the big picture, you'd sh*t your pants."

Then I'd talk about how universal the ideas are. Then because I'm a time traveler and op's situation is annoying, and I want to get in a little jab for op, maybe I'd add,

"But these days our problem is trust. Can we really trust the platform we're building on? Look at these platforms. People are stuck between two of them, at home and at work. We want to look forward and imagine what future trusted platforms look like, too. Maybe you want us to experience something like that trust in dealing with Apple, but then again maybe you're just like all the rest..."

> multi cloud is expensive and complicated to design and operate.

Depending on your scale, not being multi-cloud can be more expensive. i.e. You can save more money than it costs you to migrate (by getting a discount from your current provider.) When negotiating, you need to be able to walk away, for real.
So, there are a ton of resources out there on how unreliable IQ is, and whether it's a valid indicator of general cognitive ability. Instead of linking them, I'll just link to the place that has the most good links:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient#Reliabil...

My understanding is that save for general statistical measures of a large aggregate, IQ is a poor measure for an individual (as it has been shown to change quite a bit for individuals over the course of a lifetime).

There has to be another country-like entity directly causing it for the war to occur.

On the contrary, many more people think they are in the top 1% than actually are. A survey [1] done about 20 years ago showed that a full 19% of Americans thought they were currently among the top 1% and a further 20 percent expect to be someday. So that’s 39% of people who expect to be hurt when anyone proposes taxing the ultra rich.

The recently departed Jstark actually commented on the ammunition. Smokeless powder isn't hard to make, he simply didn't know how. The information has since been released.
I guess I don't see the 'dismissiveness' bit. You have some hunch that there was something deeper to Mersenne's noodling. That's perfectly fine but I think both the sibling commenter and I have laid out a decent argument that, if you poke around the hunch a bit, there doesn't seem to be much there. The pattern, such as it is, is no good at identifying primes and even worse at picking out what we now call Mersenne primes. I'm not sure I follow what your argument is. It doesn't take much mathleticism to notice he picked four exponents close to doubling powers of two. The link in Wikipedia goes into a bit of detail:

https://primes.utm.edu/glossary/page.php?sort=MersennesConje...

Which seems both plausible, or at least in the ballpark and not terribly mysterious. He got a big number right. It happens.

That's not to say there aren't mathematical mysteries and curiosities of that nature. You have to look no further than Mersenne's contemporary and correspondent Pierre de Fermat for a solid one. He cranked out a few dozen theorems with next to nothing in the way of surviving proof. From the famous one on down, he got just about all of them right. People have been wondering aloud how exactly he pulled that off since at least Gauss's time. Nearly as famously, he got one wrong:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_number

These look, in form, reminiscent of Mersenne's numbers and the first few of them are also prime. F5 is not. In a fun connection, Euler, the same dude who showed M31 is prime showed F5 is not. You can almost imagine Mersenne and Fermat shaking their fists and yelling 'Euleeeeeeer!' Seinfeld-like, from their graves.
Why not simplify it even more, and add:

4. Be born with genetics that avoid this common issue

Also, obesity used to be a status symbol, as a proxy for power, in many cultures. It wasn’t impossible before 1910, just likely more difficult to attain. And it seems unlikely that people in 1910 and before ate particularly “healthy,” as we define the term in 2010, since the modern abilities to produce and distribute food weren’t yet available. So perhaps remove point 1, if we want to be historically accurate?

You are totally missing the point, they are competing for a scarce resource and driving up it's prices only to waste it. They are creating a housing crisis.

"market system is allocating capital to those who are generally better are growing it"

So 'wealth attrachs more wealth'? That's a benefit in your mind? Not that the capital is used productively, or deployed efficiency in the real world, just that imaginary numbers are growing in a spreadsheet

As opposed to Jeff Bezos hiding his wealth? If Jeff has 1,000X more wealth than all of them combined, why are they 'the problem'?

On many Windows 10 machines without intentional store blocks just typing "winget" works now.

Yes, but that's not the semantics of a bare JSON object; if you want the ability to commubicate that you intend that, then you use a schema language like JSON schema, which lets you say that the JSON map in this element doesn't allow duplicate keys and requires the values to be strings, at which point tools that read the schema language no it is safe to deserialize as Map<string, string>.

I'm browsing europa.eu a fair while now (in a private browser session to avoid any old cookie from maybe interfering) and the only banner they show is "An official website of the European Union - How do you know?"

There are two links to the cookie page (https://europa.eu/european-union/abouteuropa/cookies_en or equivalent for the currently used language), one in the top nav bar, one in the bottom. Interestingly, that page talks about the cookie banner and how they need consent for analytics and stuff, but I never saw that.

So, given how they explicitly state that they need it for analytics, I went to my browser settings and disabled sending the DNT header - and there was the cookie consent popup.

So: State outright and by default that you don't want to be analyzed and they won't bother you.

My only question is why they see a need to do analytics. Without that they wouldn't require that stuff _at all_.

>>You are totally missing the point, they are competing for a scarce resource and driving up it's prices only to waste it. They are creating a housing crisis.

Public sector workers also buy investment properties, just not the most expensive properties with spectacular price tags.

And in any case, that can be addressed directly, with a land tax. Any wasteful use of the scarce resource would then be heavily penalized, with those who engage in its waste paying a significant premium to society at large.

>>Not that the capital is used productively, or deployed efficiency in the real world, just that imaginary numbers are growing in a spreadsheet

Generally, good investments, that produce large private returns, increase the productivity of the economy. If that weren't the case, we wouldn't see such a strong correlation between liberalization of entrepreneurship/private-enterprise laws, and economic growth.

The framing makes me worry. Presumably the mainstream whiteish culture is, uh, not ethnic? In other words, white remains normal; the standard from which others deviate. It is necessary to talk about and bring awareness of difference, but hopefully not highlighting and emphasising it in the process.

Would it not be more appropriate to incorporate this into history generally? I got the 90s revision curriculum here in Ontario, Canada and the indigenous peoples, waves of European conquerors, peasant refugees, and the modern immigration system, and just the origins of the peoples of this country was thematic from first grade. (And not all with rose-tinted glasses. Jewish refugees sent back to Europe. Cash payments for indigenous scalps. The "reasonable" compromise that ended slavery by slowly phasing it out. Mass detentions by race in WW II, among other things. Though any mainstream account ends up distorting and streamlining.)
