There are two issues with 5 star ranking. One the more thought required to give feedback the less likely users give feedback. More interactions is very helpful for ml so minimizing the decisions needed by a user helps a lot. Great ui/ux for engagement aims for signals to require as little action from the user as possible. As a side effect short content is very nice as finish/playtime become strong signals that require a user to do almost nothing.

The second issue is a lot of people use it like 1/5 system. While yes some users use more of the intermediates and you can adjust on per user basis for that feature it’s just not as useful as you’d expect.

Of course any decision like this I recommend a company ab test and I’m just summarizing past experience in this area.

I had a similar discussion at a prior job on having creators add content tags to there submission. The main avoidance was while good tags would be nice for recommendation, if tags are required less content would be submitted and that hurts the platform.

What are the KPI's of the people doing the recruiting strategy for these organizations?

They're incentivized to hire people who will fit in, and perform well. After a certain level of competency, from any school, this is no longer a distinguishing feature. So they double down on the culture fit, and the easiest way to eliminate risk is to hire from a pool of people who have already demonstrated that culture.

I has a very illuminating chat once with a hiring consultant developing the onboarding/induction process and activity package for graduate engineers starting at a global oil&gas company (different industry, but the same level of gatekeeping).

When taking the grads through these activities, she was struck by the fact they all looked and sounded nearly identical(even with obligatory racial diversity). She later found out that the two managers in charge of graduate program were hiring exclusively from the two engineering schools they themselves had attended, and that they were running into a terrible time retaining graduates after the program had finished, as they usually stepped off into more boutique consultancies or went to work on passion projects as money was never the motivator.

The recommendation from her consultancy was to broaden their hiring practices, and that drawing exclusively upper crust engineers who just saw the role as a stepping stone was going to hurt them in the long run, whereas they'd get much better loyalty from middle class graduates.
Wow, I had a very similar early years to Dan. I also did the "learning to code as a teen" thing that didn't really work out, other than to establish an interest. I also did EE, which was nice in that for the first time I had an overview the whole way down to the silicon.

The big revelation for me though was that you can learn anything yourself. You also don't need to be able to do exam questions to understand something, although you need some maturity to know whether you get it or not. I can almost pinpoint when it happened: I went to a tutorial with a grad student who nonchalantly explained that he was going to read the whole syllabus on biomedical engineering in the next few weeks, by himself.

Armed with that, I started my first job in finance. I read a lot of books those first few years, textbooks, biographies, histories, everything. The econ/mgt part of my course didn't really say anything about bonds and derivative pricing, but I found the relevant texts. It helped a lot to have done math heavy courses, but I still ran into new things like stochastic calculus.

Concurrently I discovered that a lot of things were getting automated, so I'd better learn how to actually code (my degree actually did go through DS&A, but I had no idea I'd need it). This was more gradual, as the prestige job in finance is trading, not coding. But as time went by it became increasingly clear that if you couldn't code, you narrowed your future opportunities by a lot. These days I'm coding every single day, and most of my issues are coding issues, not trading issues.
That's a bit separate from the notion of privacy - warantless searches violate privacy, but there is (nor should be) any expectation of privacy given a valid warrant; valid warrants is the scenario where we the people have decided (and written in our laws and constitutions) that you should not be able to keep things hidden.

Yes, that's mentioned in the parent comment. The problem is that at slower frequencies also keep the core powered up for longer, which is often bad for power consumption. For many mobile devices, it's often much better to ramp up the processor to 100% and get the work done quickly, then rush to idle as quickly as possible.

Surely, that has more to do with common themes in the music you frequent than spotify pushing these themes on you. If you don't like the themes that frequent the genre you are listening to most often, the solution seems to be to find alternative genres. I don't tend to get these themes often when listening to electro-swing, for example.

So I take it you did indeed not have a use for transferring individual videos to a different channel? I think "just" is a pretty reasonable word to use here, it is two well documented steps. Happy to help!

Look, you're claiming that videos are obviously analogous to files, and should thus support the same operations that files do. But that's not the case, they're more complex objects.

For example, moving a video can't be unilateral. For reasons that should be pretty obvious, you have to have both the old and new owner consent to the transfer, which is going to be a fairly complex flow. There's no analogous concept in any filesystem I've ever seen.

I own a DE10-NANO, the development kit powering the MiSTER project, as well as both the Super Nt and Mega Sg.

I agree that there's a lot in common, but I think the two projects target vastly different audiences.

The MiSTER project has a broader scope, and aims to preserve legacy hardware, including games, but also older computer hardware. It's much more geared towards hobbyists or tinkerers as you'll have to buy various hardware extensions to have the right setup for the console you're actually interested in playing. That being said, the MiSTER project never aims to truly be a "replacement" for any of the consoles it supports. Things like reading the console's native media or native controllers aren't really goals of the project.

Analogue's consoles on the other hand are meant to be drop in replacements for the original hardware, just re-imagined for today. They have the original controller ports, cartridge slots, support for original expansion hardware, etc. They're highly polished, and targeted at solving a specific use-case. The biggest problem the Analogue consoles solve is hooking up to modern TVs. I see them as an alternative to purchasing a CRT, upscalers, or modding original hardware, all of which can quickly ring up a bill equal to or more expensive than one of Analogue's consoles.

I don't like Armbian.

They support boards by forking the kernel and distributing it ilegally, for example by linking openssl, meanwhile other providers (e.g. Debian) try to do the correct thing, and reimplement or substitute them for distributable pieces. They are a leaf in the ecosystem, and don't contribute back. They receive donations to provide images that are illegal, even if they work.

Please support people that contribute upstream to mainline and not fork Linux and stagnate efforts instead.

Perhaps because of this Bill Gates quote? "There are no significant bugs in our released software that any significant number of users want fixed. … I'm saying we don't do a new version to fix bugs.

You won't get a single person to say they'd buy a new version because of bugs. We'd never be able to sell a release on that basis."
Learning is not a leisure activity. I'm not saying it can't be fun or engaging or a great pastime but it requires as much focus if not more than work. It also requires constant attention (even if its in small amounts). It gives people a feeling of accomplishment and purpose but it is no way relaxing.

I am sort of tired of these articles about procrastination, etc that equate like watching a movie and going to the gym or hiking. The activities aren't in the same realm at all. Basically shaming people for sitting around doing nothing with your brain off. I don't think you should be living your life like that all the time, but having an hour or two of straight mindlessness is not a bad thing. Pushing yourself to always be doing the activities you "should" do because some online guru says thats the right way to spend your time leads to burnout too.

It has been years since I've tried Pandora: Back when I tried it, they only let you skip a number of songs in a short time and often played things I didn't care for. Lots of slightly obscure songs weren't available. It might be better for more popular music or have improved in the last decade, I don't know. I started using Spotify.

And still now as then: It is only available in the US. I no longer live in the US.

The HashMap is "completely filled" in the sense that you get to put N items in a HashMap with capacity N, because that's specifically how Rust's HashMap chooses to define capacity as I explained above, so it's a tautological explanation.

The "real" capacity and load factor of the underlying data structure is not presented to you. Swisstables (the current implementation) can't be filled entirely, they need an empty slot to function correctly. There is some trickery to ensure that very small Swisstables get to have an "empty" slot that doesn't really exist, and thus doesn't need RAM. Since you can't ever write to it the non-existence doesn't matter. A Rust HashMap::with_capacity(0) is guaranteed not to allocate any actual heap storage, just like String::new() don't need heap to store the empty string inside it.
Yes, it's quite interesting seeing all the negative feedback. To be honest, I don't quite understand it.

I've purchased both the Super Nt and Mega Sg and have been extremely pleased with them. They're extremely high quality and strike a great balance between providing an authentic experience for the console while being reasonable to use with a modern TV. And to be blunt, aren't even an unreasonable price when compared to the alternatives for making the original hardware usable with similar fidelity and features.

So I came into the comments having never heard of these people, and from the comments I was expecting something bad. But actually I had the opposite experience when I then opened the OP link.

They are making something that is similar to a GameBoy Color, but built on an FPGA, and which lets you play games from a few different consoles.

I grew up with GBC, N64, PS1 and PS2. My first console was the GBC. I played N64 and PS1 at friends houses, and got a PS2 of my own when that came out.

Now and then I use emulation and revisit some old favorites. And I’ve also bought a couple of old consoles second hand to play on those in the past.

A while ago, at the beginning of the pandemic, I bought a Nintendo New 3DS XL second hand with the intention of also trying emulation on it. Ended up only playing actual DS and 3DS games, and not doing emulation. Then sold it.

Not sure I'd want this thing, and can’t afford it at the moment anyways.

But the website did a good job of catching my interest. And if I was in the market for a handheld gaming system, this page would be enough for me to begin looking into it further.

And my point is, there may be more people out there than you realize who are interested in a little bit of retro gaming now and then who will respond similarly positively to that page as what I did.

Hi Dan, author here.

Thanks for your comment, I agree with a number of your thoughts here.

> One point made in the OP is that big companies don’t hire junior devs.

That's something I didn't phrase well in the article. A lot of big tech companies have intership programs and graduation programs, so that they get top talent as early as possible, you're right. But looking at their growth plans, large companies can just dig deeper into the existing market and hire people who have 1-4 years of experience. Less profitable companies don't have that leverage.

> There definitely are companies that don’t hire junior devs but those are small companies who can’t afford to train them

I've seen a number of companies with such policy and often they could afford it, but decided not to. My previous company had such policy and when I asked about it, they said they just want to go as fast as possible and juniors would slow them down. And then I struggled to keep people motivated because half of our tasks were too trivial for all the seniors.

But also when I look at the list of top companies here in Netherlands (Uber, Databricks, Amazon + a few local companies) I very rarely see entry-level opportunities. Maybe because they're filled that quickly?

> I think I have found the root of my disagreement: the definition of junior

Yeah, I should have specified it in the article. Writing it I was thinking about people looking for their first job in the industry. Surely that's a very diverse group, since it includes CS grads and self-taught devs, but even CS grads have problems getting interviews these days (unless they graduate from top university)
yeah it doesnt seem like a very nuanced system, well at least the end result doesnt.
I'm responding with facts. There's no "data" in the post I responded to.
Do you get paid to be a staffer? Do you have to be at work at certain times?

Yeah, that's a job. Even if you are doing it for experience, it is still a job.

Many, if not most jobs don't let you become rich or make a reasonable living, and they aren't non-jobs even if people try to say they aren't.
