I think you could benefit from moving to a larger group for a few years. Keep all the connections from your current team and you'll all find each other again one day.

While I dont move around nearly as much as some in the industry, I do find value in moving every 3-5 years. Not really for the salary but more for the different perspectives it offers. You'll learn so much and look back at your small software team one day with fond memories and chuckle about how big the world outside that team is and how the values from a small team are hard to find. Make it something you seek out and appreciate, not just something you do every day.

No, the rumor was just that they put their thumb on the scale.

"Speaking of middle managers, word on the street is that Zillow Offers put their thumb on the scale of the algorithm to make it engage in more aggressive trades. Manually adjusting an algorithm isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but you need to do it for the right reasons. And clearly that didn’t end up working out..."

That not everyone in the organization knew that, is just me speculating.
In my experience, spawning is generally a mistake. It brings a huge amount of potential pitfalls for join in progress, and often becomes an attack vector for griefing. On top of that, it makes hardware usage unbounded.

What you usually want is pools.
I have a website hosted on Github pages which uses ServiceWorkers to be accessible when being offline (cached). Sadly, Github serves some error page currently and kills the ServiceWorker functionality that way...

While town halls are public facilities, most rental halls are decidedly not. I think that was the point of the comment: If they were holding this event in person, would they refuse to do it in most facilities?

> i assure you, you can hold your own dick when you pee - its not that bad.

Comments like this are flamebait and, as an observer, quite unwarranted in this thread.

Maybe you’re talking about a different variation of the Turing test than I am. I think any reasonable test is nowhere close to being solved.

The key part is that both the human and the AI are both trying to convince a properly trained judge they are human in a general open-ended conversation.

I know some variations have humans pretending they are computers or something which is completely backwards for a Turing Test.
> The older I get, the more time I have to spend rebuilding reputation whenever I enter a new company.

This is very dependent on organizational structure. Some companies re-org so often that you’re still “proving your value” several years into your job, whereas other companies will recognize a first class developer on week one just by virtue of their work.

If you want to be at/near the top though, and really have an outsized impact, it’s best to start off there. You could be the CTO of a tiny company with big potential.
Agreed.

I got my Model Y in June.

Yes, sometimes it has phantom braking. For reference, on a 9 hour drive to LV from my house, it happened maybe 5 times, and they were all fixed with a mild press of the accelerator. If this is a deal breaker for you, don’t get a Tesla. If the failed promise of FSD is a deal breaker for you, don’t get a Tesla (I don’t have it and don’t want it).

Other than the minor issues (for me) of occasional phantom braking and broken FSD promises, the car has been amazing. Build quality was perfect, it has run incredibly well, and it is simply a joy to drive.

My friend ordered his a week after I took him on a ride, and he doesn’t think he will ever own a car that’s not a Tesla (I disagree with him, because competition will be a thing at some point, but he’s directionally correct).

Many of my other friends have made their deposit and are just waiting for their number to come up.

Rather than read reviews, talk to people who own the model you are planning to purchase (same model and similar “model year”). Then take the car on a test drive. You will probably know at that point if it’s for you or not.
.. then how should we describe the activities of Douglas Englebert or Vint Cerf 2 decades prior?

That's very true.

In relative terms, I was an early adopter. I clearly remember the buzz that went around when somebody told us that there were now the unbelievable number of 'one million nodes on the Net'. That was four years or so before MSFT 'got religion' and turned on a dime to provide Web software. (Much as I dislike MSFT, that was really fantastic, fast work!)

These days of course, a million nodes more or a million nodes less is merely 'daily noise level'.
The argument was directly related to the original claim of "genocide" and had nothing to do with the consumption of animals in general. I was saying that by consuming one turkey per year I am hardly contributing to the extinction of an animal.

Dogs are consumed in other countries such as Nigeria and the practice is only taboo in primarily western cultures. This has historical and cultural implications. Like I said, just because you consider something "icky" doesn't make it immoral (see https://www.philosophyetc.net/2004/09/moral-emotions-yuk-fac...).

If you are truly interested in philosophical conversations I would avoid phrases like "you don't see what's wrong with this?", because appealing to the stone (argumentum ad lapidem) is not an actual argument. It's a shell for lack of reasoning and evidence (also known as a logical fallacy). If you see some breakdown of logic then please, point it out using reasoning. You may think it is immoral to consume dogs. Other countries do not. There is no "obviously immoral" conclusion to what you said. Or perhaps I missed it.
Interesting, this was 2014, perhaps clerk did it to save me money for device registration.

Now I just use my EU data plan, it has enough data for short stays.
they don't need BT, but rather, you can't let the VM manage its own PTEs. virtualbox lets you configure that - just turn off nested paging. vmware unfortunately doesn't do that. if you can get the VM booting in safe mode, flipping the safety options from system properties perf button might help too. (I will say ME runs fine where 98 doesn't. weird!)
It’s actually really important in some edge cases. For instance, I have a column that is declared as text but I read and write to it via the blob api (because the source is utf8 bytes I don’t want to parse client-side for allocation reasons). The flexible typing ended up - silently - storing the fields as blobs, but comparisons with strings continued to work (“foo” == table.col) until I tried changing that to a pattern (table.col like “%foo”) at which point there were runtime exceptions (iirc). I had to update all existing data to cast the columns to the correct type, whereas the original insertion query should have been doing that from the start, but SQLite was too flexible for my own good.

" I have had issues with it, over the years, but every single time, Tesla stepped up"

Is that not the point? The best car you have had, with issues.

I have a Honda Fit. It is getting on to fifteen years old now. No issues ever except for wear.

But Honda know a lot about making cars. Tesla tried to disrupt the entire process. This is where hubris gets you

I learned this technique while reviewing high school math to take the GRE, and really enjoyed it. I find it elegant and easier to derive than the usual formula - I prefer not to memorize equations. And with just a little practice, it was easy to work through manually on my whiteboard (no scratch paper allowed).

Of course it is not some big discovery in fundamental knowledge - but it is a helpful pedagogical advance and I am happy Po-Shen Loh has advertised it.
I read the line specifically as "The employees can do better; they just don't want to try."

But that's not true. The company could do better. But the individual employees cannot. The individual employees are constrained by the profit motive of the company. They are not allowed by corporate policy to set up automatic status updates, for about the same reason they're not allowed to post their corporate log-in credentials: that the result would very likely be disastrous to the company's bottom line.

(Though, really, the corporations in most verticals are in a race-to-the-bottom in most respects. Even if you treat GitHub as a single entity capable of coherent desires, it probably doesn't desire to avoid automatic status updates. It needs to avoid them, to survive in a competitive market where everyone else is also avoiding them. People — and corporations — do lots of things they don't want to do, to survive.)
As an anecdotal data point, I have lived in Austin since 2014, but my wife and I are planning on moving elsewhere sometime in the next couple of years. Austin is a fantastic city if you can afford to live in it. Great neighborhoods, great food, relatively laid back culture. The summers are brutal, but borderline tolerable.

However, winter storm Uri was a real eye opener, and the (lack of) legislative response to it, while not surprising, is yet another indicator that no matter how great Austin is, it’s still subject to the state legislature. I can’t see myself staying in a state where the government is trying so hard all the time to insert itself into the culture war du jour and continually failing to actually govern, not to mention the continued assault on women’s and voting rights.

We’re lucky enough to have a house here, but for what we paid for it we can get 2x or more land/house in other places. Now that remote work has taken off, there’s a lot less tying us to this city in particular. We’ll probably try to keep the house and become yet another set of out of state homeowners renting out space in the city (which I swear is at least 80% of the purchases I’ve seen in our neighborhood lately).
Here i am on a Saturday afternoon learning how to programatically interact with GitHub using go-git, banging my head on my desk because the code should work, but im getting cryptic errors. I'm searching stackoverflow, nobody seems to have encountered the errors i'm getting (that typically means i'm doing something wrong)...... oh GitHub is down. To GitHubs credit, they've been very reliable for me over the years, it didn't even cross my mind that they could be down.
I loved TOS, but it became obvious how little money they had to make when all the monsters are just some actor in a suit, and when the rocks are shiny and fake.

Relying too much on FX can be annoying, but too little FX can also ruin a story.
Can't access Vercel because I used Github for authentication. I guess I'm done with using centralized authentication services.
Even if Zillow had an algorithm that was 100% accurate at predicting current house prices, the housing market is just incompatible with market making. A market maker isn’t exposed to changes in the price, they clip the ticket on providing liquidity regardless of price direction. Zillow may have been able to successfully speculate on house prices with an accurate model, but they would not be a market maker.

Houses trade slowly, so would sit on Zillows books for a long time (days/months). Market makers on the stock market can have assets sit on the books for under a second. Houses are not fungible, which extenuates the slow trade problem.
Maybe we start by banning harmful exploitation where we are first, not somewhere else?
> somehow?

By marking it up and/or appreciation. They buy it for $500/sqft and then rent it for $100/sqft. In that hypothetical the breakeven is 5 years, plus overhead.

If the occupancy doesn’t work out in their favor, they may still make it up in appreciation.

What’s a duration risk?
>Teslas are not flawless cars, but they are, simply, the best cars.

Pffffrt. By what metrics you would measure that aside, it does feel like you've never been into high quality cars. A Mercedes Class S is a veritable massive step up compared to a Tesla, for similar prices. Recent EVs like the Ioniq 5 are very much matching the Teslas in everything

Some popular breakfast syrups are prohibited from being called "maple" as they don't contain any. If genuine maple syrup is super popular where you are, great for the Canadian producers.
It really doesn't, that just ensures that already giant western firms reign Supreme on the national markets of smaller countries

But if you like to take that slogan and spread it around, then I am sure which you might be quite happy with said outcome?
just PowerPC assembly before, but mostly on a much smaller scale (RE or writing basic blocks)
Pools? (Vs spawns?) Good reference to learn?
It definitely is a good example of such. A good example of such after 20 years of the West quietly cheering for such outcome.

Turkeys' EU accession plan went nowhere, despite Turkey being genuinely serious for years on end.

Western capitals were dead silent during the 2016 coup attempt.
> There's also the whole "corona theater" element, with people pretending that they don't want to come in because they'll die or whatever, which might have made sense for a month or two in March last year but now is just a sign that you're dealing with someone who is either deliberately lying or just has no understanding of the situation.

If anything, this behavior is far simpler than trying to automagically coerce types and marshal differing types to/from one column.

Totally, but I live in Argentina were there is 54% anual inflation. That is worrying, I also used to travel to the United States and I continue to do so regularly and inflation is noticeable. I think we have to find the way around.
This is pretty cool, but it adds flexibility rather than security.
That's probably it. Instead of you paying this ridiculous registration fee, the clerk probably offered you a cloned Turkish IMEI. That's another popular workaround!
Stop putting words in his/her mouth. This is how some people feel. Let it go.
With more outages of our amazing, but overly centralized development ecosystem, the popularity of this approach will likely surge. It helps that Go supports the vendoring workflow as it makes the choice practical.

As for building with a flag: true, but very minor, as it's rare to execute 'go build' directly. In most projects I've seen, it's either Bazel, or some kind of "build.sh".
All that and no picture of the bird.
Ask HN: Remove online presence from when I was a teen?
Hello Hacker News community. How are you? I am writing with a doubt / concern I have.

I was stupid enough to create all my online prsence when I was a teenager using my real full name and using my photos. I thought I was smart putting myself out there.

However, I was a teenager and I could have published stupid things online (nothing serious, but maybe jokes that could be seen bad now). In normal circumstances no one would care, but I may close a deal and my name can become popular among a certain niche (imagine Disney fandom, although not exactly that one), and I am scared that the mob may start looking for my old online presence to find things against me if they don't like what I produce.

Is it there a way to delete your online presence, mainly Twitter? My Twitter profile was deleted years ago, but it still appears on the Internet Archive (I wrote to them to get it deleted all the urls under twitter.com/myUsername/*, no news yet).

Are any actions that I should consider or any recommendation advice you have?

Thank you very much

PS: I create this throaway account to not use my regular one with karma because it can give my identity away.
I think Germany does that as well. It was very confusing to inherit code that "accepted CSVs", but didn't accept files where the values were comma-separated.
Granted, it's probably the best time of the year for github to break, precisely because nobody else is pushing production changes....
Your experience of multiple things failing in just a few years is not what the average person would call "fantastic".
A friend owns a 2020 model 3. The paint job was worse than my ass end 8 year old Citroen C3 so he spent the entire value of my ass end 8 year old Citroen C3 on a ceramic coating for it. And it still looks worse. I’d be so pissed if I’d spent on a Tesla and got that back for my money.
I think you're missing the point here. Each link you posted are for keycaps that are made using injection molding. The process used by Keymacs is resin casting. The costs and customization involved aren't the same. It is an apples to oranges comparison.

Sorry, my sibling comment came across as a little too harsh and accusatory (too late to edit now).
Had a Model Y for a year now

Hands down the best car I have ever had and I have owned Audis, BMWs and other high end cars.

Whenever I have to drive a non Tesla me and my wife just can’t stop laughing at how ridiculous they are…it’s like operating steam engines

Sucks that others had problems with it but everyone I know including ourselves couldn’t be more happy with their Tesla
When it's more that 5 minutes of typing, I always select all and press ctrl-c. And then submit. Saved my time several times.
That's sort of my attitude too, though I'm a bit older. I was able to retire, a bit earlier than most, a little over a year ago. The main reason I actually did was a lack of significant overlap between what I enjoy doing, what I felt needed doing, and what the company insisted engineers at my level should do. I wasn't willing to give up all enjoyment on one hand or my professional conscience on the other, so I gave up the reviews and paychecks. The prevailing attitudes in this industry make me not want to work in it.

People who have never reached either that level or that longevity will surely say I should have stayed in, played by the rules better, and built up political capital so I could make more positive change some time in the future, but you know what? I had already paid those dues many times over, and I wasn't interested in paying them yet again. For all but a few, that promise of a rosy future is just bait that employers use to justify their BS in the present. I'm not that much of a sucker. Now I'm comfortable and my time is my own, and that's the only victory condition I care about.
Obsidian has a WYSIWYG editor coming soon.
Call me old, but Total Commander.

So much functionality and extensibility in a pretty small software, it almost didn't change in years, and still does its job very efficiently, and my favourite part is that you can literally do every possible action with just a keyboard.

I love software that doesn't require a mouse. Terminal emulators and shells are obviously things I love using (hello vim users), but Total Commander is probably the only GUI software I respect because I could do just fine if my mouse got broken.

---

Also, Keypirinha + Everything search.
Both of those individually are great and do their job well, but the fact that you can combine them makes them even better. Oh, and Total Commander also can use Everything search.
I just hand-derived it both ways to make a comparison, the standard way was from memory.

So. The standard way to complete the square uses a trick to rearrange the equation so that one can use the formula (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2.

This uses a different trick to rearrange the equation to make use of (a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2.

Frankly, I don’t see how this is any easier. If anything, I think it’s harder to do from memory because you need to introduce a new variable in a very specific way to make the simplification work. The standard way feels a lot more systematic.
Their built in indexing and searching system is really where they shine. The ability to #tag content throughout a document, create and link to internal documents and have all the the links update as file names change or are moved is really why the program is as solid as it is

And all of that while keeping hold of your data in simple readable formats! while the software isn't OSS, it is free and you can use any older version to sync with your server of choice. The extension ecosystem is insanely healthy, productive, and easy to write your own that works on both desktop and mobile.

Note: If you are on Linux DO NOT INSTALL THE SNAP - its really, really slow. The flatpak or AppImage are perfectly fine.
Dogs are a common pet and turkeys are not. Sure, objectively they are animals with edible meat. One is raised with the intention of being eaten and one is not. In the hypothetical far away country (from a few parent comments up), if it was common to eat dogs instead of turkey and dogs were not raised, and treated as "man's best friend" then it would make a lot more sense for them to be consumed.

One remark: "The on-disk format for the table data is the same" => I guess this means there is still some kind of "type/length" header for every single record... (which could theoretically be dropped) ?
You can view the source of a crate on docs.rs (see [1] for the Cargo.toml of rust-s3). Also I am pretty sure cargo only depends on GitHub for authentication for uploading crates and not for the actual contents. Trying to build an empty crate with rust-s3 as a dependency right now seems to work fine.

SARS-CoV-2 is already endemic, and causes mild common cold symptoms for the vast majority of youths. This is exactly the same as the other four endemic human coronaviruses. Most of us get infected with those when we're young and the resulting immunity protects us when we're older.
This part seems like fair criticism to me:

"looking at the Autopilot status and navigation prompts means having to gaze well down toward the bottom of that display. That means taking your eyes a long way from the road. A simple gauge cluster or heads-up display would solve the issue, but none are available, a curious omission on a car costing this much."

Hard to comment on the phantom braking without experiencing it myself though.
