To be frank HR people are certifiably insane - they think people who show they can deceive them in body languahe better are more trustworthy. There is no sugarcoating just how utterly batshit that notion is - even before pointing out that is literally how sociopaths operate!
Should have 2012 in the title (found as a meta header). nginx is the number one web server by market (although it depends on your data source/their measuring approach, so that's a bit arguable but NetCraft reports it has been since 2019 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29088538), and while the original component is open source, there's a lot of pro/plus/pay closed source pieces now.
I'm not sure what they are being posted as examples of there? Can a bidi char in a string literal be succesfully used in the sort of attack in the OP, a "Trojan Source" attack?

If so, that is devious!

It's not clear to me if those example show that though. They show bidi characters being highlighted in a string literal, right.

My hypothesis was that such could not be part of a "trojan source" attack... but this stuff is confusing and I could have it wrong?
Cool question. I definitely visualize the various rooms in my apt., Indoors perspective, when answering the question, doing so without prompting. It feels effortless and the visualizations are rather basic, without details, but they are spatial with perspective and I see the shape of the room and the window.
If I recall correctly, carbohydrates alone can explain about 1/3 of the variability in postprandial glucose responses [1]. That's a lot, but not the whole story.

Variability between individuals and also for the same meals at different times of the day or under different conditions is high.

But overall, most of the recent nutritional research shows that grandma/mom was probably right in banning "junk food" and serving "natural" foods. We've invented highly processed foods before having fully adjusted to doing agriculture.

At least my better meals (w.r.t the post-meal glucose response) were fairly self-composed whereas frozen pizza & co gave me the worst spikes.

Because if you actually wanted to reduce energy consumption, then you'd have actual targets and goals. E.g. I started out at n mW and now I'm at m mW of usage. This article talks about the solar setup they're using now, but not where they started from, and what the energy usage profile of their server is over time. In other words, it's either lazy or greenwashing.

Its all about the liability they are willing to assume. Dont confuse that with the law itself.

Its the same about wondering why one person gets culturally “cancelled” and another doesn't for the same action: The people beside them have a large enough rainy day fund and don't mind the risk. It says nothing about what the culture actually believes either way, only the risk tolerance of the wealthy backers. Huh, reminds me of the princeton study that said the same thing about progressive laws that get passed, where the culture has no effect on anything except that sometimes it coincidentally matches what wealthy special interests were already doing, with the caveat that its more of a direct democracy for the wealthy special interests but an additional level of representative democracy for everyone else.
Not sure where you're getting those numbers. I've been a Backblaze customer for 10+ years, and I was contacted about the directed share program. Have not heard about price or volume yet.
A hazard of meetings is that the best debater owns the show. It's quite possible that the tech lead thought his idea was straightforward enough that he didn't expect it to be debated, and wasn't prepared for it.

I don't introduce new information at meetings unless I am ready to back it up, which usually takes an hour of preparation for every hour of meeting. If time is of the essence, it's often better to settle things in hallway conversations or via web chat.
Can this be used for simulating network conditions during mobile app development / resiliency testing?
> It’s the reason why the Internet took a long time to take off: using the Internet on a desktop computer sucks. When smartphones took off, so did the Internet.

This is not true, the Internet took off in the U.S. in the mid-90s: https://ourworldindata.org/internet

The driving force was the WWW, not smartphones.

Personally, I would say exactly the opposite, the only advantage a smartphone has over a desktop computer for Internet usage is portability, otherwise the experience is worse in every way.
I don't know if it's fake, but I've heard this clip and the encounter is with Spain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkx0MxK-Yl4
> As a general rule, you want people who are going to bear the costs and reap the benefits in a particular area to be involved in collective decisions about that area, but you don't want people involved who aren't.

But this is exactly what the article is arguing for. Often enough industry groups like the tobacco or oil industry were manipulating policy such that they were reaping the benefits while everyone else was bearing the costs.

Those industry groups are already producing biased research. The article argues that more scientists should be ready to expose this bias.

This rule also isn't completely general. Those who bear the costs, those who reap the benefits and those who would be affected by actions might be three different groups.
It sometimes can be desirable to make a rule that is applied very broadly to avoid inequities and arbitrage effects. Finally, in global issues such as climate change and COVID, everyone is bearing the costs, so action can't be restricted locally.

> Uncertainty can be used either way: it can be used to try to delay action, or to try to motivate it (we don't know whether X will be a problem, but if it is, it will be huge, so we can't take a chance on not doing something about it). Both can be issues.

Both can be issues, yes. But in the discussed fields, again climate change, COVID, tobacco use, health effects of highly processed food, etc, scientific consensus is by a wide margin that X is both very likely and will deal enormous damage. So uncertainty in that direction is already very small.
You're running into US sanctions issues (Crimea), not woke Google policy.
A lot of people were jumping in with their rundown old houses asking rediculous (lose your ass) prices and I'm seeing them all revise as of late. This was seen mostly in rural areas--Im looking for a farm.

I saw quite a few houses that sold a few years prior for much lower prices. The disparity in estimated values and previous sales versus the list price was astronomical in most cases. The banks will happily give you a loan for whatever price so there is no check on the runaway prices except for your own personal knowledge of the historical market demand in an area.

I am a PhD mathematician turned data scientist and engineer. I am an American-Swedish dual citizen and mainly work out of Sweden and southern California. I tend to work broadly, with past work ranging from Data Science/ML, to efficiently implementing mathematical/statistical algorithms, to backend engineering. I'm always excited to work on new theoretical as well as applied engineering problems.
This seems like a carbon copy of Notion which seems to have a lot of users so may be a better comparison
It worked for Gmail, but Gmail was so far ahead of everything else at the time that people really wanted in.

Limited invites can create buzz, Facebook did it well by inviting entire universities at once, that got around the problem of "no one else you know is on it."

Inviting purely random people to a collaborative system? Eh, not such a good idea!
When evading, sometimes you have to leave the safe zone. OpFor will probably be familiar with safe operating areas and limit search zones. Would a USS Captain risk the boat by leaving uncharted areas to avoid detection? Just an idea of why.
We’ll do the same thing we are mostly doing with games now: watching somebody playing it sitting next to you, like you’re friends, on some sort of in-game cloud.

That's fair enough. Everyone has a different cost/benefit analysis based on their own situation.

Some people have more money than time, some have more time than money. And there are a million other factors too.
If you hit a 10 ton object and _any_ of the collision is inelastic, that is a tremendous amount of momentum to dissipate. It might not change the speed of the sub much, but it could still cause a lot of damage to the hull which could then injure sailors inside.

Pfizer's 5-11 covid vaccine FDA application estimates a bunch of numbers that roughly match the OP numbers in Table 14, page 34. Though we should not confuse myocarditis in boys 200/M with myocarditis mortality, which is 0. And, of course, grain of salt for Pfizer estimation, probably the real numbers could be marginally worse. https://www.fda.gov/media/153447/download
Maybe Opendoor will follow, but there's also this perspective:

Selling or shorting Opendoor due to Zillow’s flaws is akin to shorting Google due to Yahoo’s inability to monetize search well or return long tail queries properly.

I'm a little bit confused about what their strategy was. As I understand it, house flippers usually buy houses, do some renovations to add value and then sell in under a year at a higher price. It sounds like Zillow tried to buy homes and hold them until they appreciated? Was there any data that supported that this would be successful?
Very difficult to legalize and tax meth, which is what this guy mostly sold. It’s hugely addictive and harmful, and you can make it in a home lab.

I was shocked to read in the article that one in seven Australians have tried it. Is that true? That’s a real crisis if so.
Why are we still talking about the CIM? It failed practically every test we threw at it. Sure low carb diets can make you lose weight, but that's because you eat less, not because of insuline.
Isn't that a complete tautology? If most people spent their youths chained up in a cold basement we would see it reflected in life.
So this is same thing Microsoft did to Slack with Teams but with Loop directly towards Notion?

The fact that it is completely free and open source, tells you that it is a straight 'extinguish' which was rare but now they have gone and done just that (Again).

This is what 'extinguish' looks like with the new Microsoft.
You're certainly right but still missing the point. The 10 injuries were most likely not due to a vulnerable part of the sub. They were likely due to a sudden change in the sub's motion, which wouldn't have occurred had they hit a container.
With the complete rout today of -11.5% and the additional -11.0% aftermarket on Zillow's stock, it's still up +95% from when Chanos made that comment.

Calling bullshit simply isn't worth the hassle these days (e.g. see Tesla and cryptocurrency fans). Better to figure out how to identify the top and keep opinions to yourself.
I recall Intel had a big presence there at one point, but I think they may have closed those offices.

There's obviously some limit to how finely you could expect them to separate accents, but putting rhotic Scottish and Ulster accents in the same category with mostly-non-rhotic English accents is just crassly wrong. It's about as bad as putting Australia and the USA in the same category.

Not disagreeing about the CIA here but there was a recent r/askhistorians about Webb’s death and it appears multiple gunshot suicides aren’t that uncommon. Plus his wife doesn’t think it was anything but. Asserting things like this undercuts the point.
Most office work that I’ve seen requires text entry (email, spreadsheets, proposals, etc) and that’s always today done through a keyboard. Doing that work in VR where you can’t see the keyboard is surprisingly tough, even if you can touch type!

I’ve switched out my keycaps for blanks recently to try to force myself to get better at working in VR but I’m still struggling a bit with all the symbols.
Sure, but I think this sort of grandstanding doesn't serve the conversation well. We're talking about realistic, incremental policy changes here.

So we're saying that making it so tenants can't defend themselves against illegal evictions is going to increase the housing supply incrementally?

>It's also why the perennial "hiring is broken" posts and threads miss the point completely: really they're just trying to find someone they like. It's what "culture fit" really means. And people like people like themselves. This is part of what can lead to unlawful discrimination.

I don't care about this, and never will care.

How startups expect to make progress or deliver a groundbreaking products following this inverted psychology is beyond me.

In simple words possible: I have hired people who I don't like naturally only on professional expertise and the value that they delivered to my company was immense.

You cannot learn to be likeable.

You don't need this nonsense. You, as a professional, must learn to communicate and respect people for their skills and accomplishments, not for similarities in music taste, consumer purchases or favorite movies.

All of this crap is produced by companies who want to exploit overtime by creating emotional bonding and subjective preferences. The added "benefit" is that this artificial divide leads to generational hostility and mistrust (which is handy when someone old with experience will try to share useful information to someone young and full with illusions).

I have managed teams of people who didn't like each other at all, and this was not a problem because of clear communication, procedure and company mission.

It's about time, this "cultural fit" nonsense to die. Companies who are operating with this mentality will never produce long-term value. Period.

It's about time, we as a community, to grow up and stop pretending that we are not having a role in growing ageism and tribalism in our industry.

Can you imagine if engineers of the Apollo Program were selected by friendliness?
All of the 'Owned by Zillow' listings here in the Miami area are _really_ shabby flips. They'll basically redo the kitchen and leave the rest of the property looking like garbage and then ask for a 15% markup.

Also they prioritize those listings now, with no way to filter them out, so when looking at houses I end up just scrolling past several pages to get to other listings that I actually want to see.

It's amazing that this whole scheme has made their traditional user experience worse at the same time.
Can someone, maybe even a nutritionist or doctor, recommend an authoritative textbook or course on nutrition? I would need something at the undergraduate or non-specialist graduate level. Being a topic that directly affects every day of the rest of my life, I would like to gain as sophisticated an understanding as a can, given limits of time. I could work through one textbook or course.

I know there are not always authoritative answers about nutrition; there is much uncertainty. That's all the more reason to have the knowledge distilled by an expert (who would of course discuss uncertainties).
The article's focus on "parent choice" seems like a red herring to me. Bussing isn't any more about parent choice today than it was in the 70s. Though I'm sure one could easily find anti-civil rights publications from back then trying to make that same appeal to tradition.

The fact is that integration never really happened in the US. The powers that be used arguments like "parental choice" to stymie progress, and we ended up in a good-enough middle ground where the privileged class could pretend something was done, and racism was over. Meanwhile school funding remains directly tied to standardized test scores, creating virtuous/vicious cycles of classism in virtually every city across the country.

The point of establishing public schools was to break the cycle of only the rich being able to afford a good education. IMO the fact that there is such a thing as good/bad public schools means the system has failed. I'm totally in favor of bussing as much as I am the use of online tools like KhanAcademy and subsidized child care.

I mean, maybe, but you still might need it to be reviewed. You don't have to wait until you're about to launch to start these kinds of reviews and if you know that some kind of DI review is necessary for your project you should start talking to the reviewers as early as possible, especially if you are making a potentially controversial design choice.
You are probably right, many people aren't pretending. They really do think their opponents are a monoculture. Convenient, I suppose, critical thinking takes effort.
They were also trying to make upgrades and expecting they could lower the costs through scale eg give painters steady work at lower rates because they were a single party with lots of inventory.

We do tax them with VAT, which brings a LOT of money.

We could, and should tax them more on earnings too, despite loop holes and tax heavens.

But even if you could just get VAT on drugs and prostitution, that would be HUGE. Not to mention profits would go to legal businesses, which would stimulate the economy, instead of going into criminals pockets, which hurts society.

> Had I been a Linux guy first and foremost I would probably have used something else than Word, but it works and I find the separation between the regular font for comments and monospace for script makes it easy to quickly distinguish. It's also easy to add screenshots for clarifications etc.

As a windows girl, I recommend you give a try to the notebooks like RStudio: you can add screenshots (or script them with ahk, nircmd etc to automatically screenshot at some points of the execution) and execute blocks of commands in about anything.

The notebook approach has the additional nice feature of stopping execution as soon as a block fails, giving you the opportunity to fix it before you continue from that point, something often more tedious with Linux scripts (where you need to commend the beginning if your script isn't idempotent)

Ideally, you would always write idempotent scripts, but who've got time for that :)

In practice, if you try to avoid wasting effort, it's often the icing on the cake, once everything else has been done. So I like notebook environments for this simple feature: piecewise execution with verbose output (similar to bash -xe)

That said, a directory per machine (and a subdirectory with all the drivers and specific software) on Onedrive with a RTF file full of screenshots (because wordpad is everywhere!) is how I work most of the time :)
