> Recruiters love phone calls and don’t like doing things over email or text. This means that it is very easy to get overwhelmed by the number of recruiters trying to call you, and we will explore time management a little further down the text.

This has been my experience as well, and while I understand the desire for introductory "sales mode" type calls, I think it's progressed past that point to something nearly pathological.

As an example, I recently had a recruiter that I was previously in contact with over email cold-call me while I was skiing, trying to schedule a meeting with a hiring manager (I picked up the call because I thought it might be one of the people in my group that I didn't have in my contacts). When I requested she please send me an email to schedule the meeting, as I was out of the office, I got an email where she sent an email to schedule the phone call, to then schedule the meeting over the phone. It was 100% the least efficient way to do this, and only happened because of this illogically strong preference for phone calls that recruiters seem to have...
Yes, but two BRKs in succession make little sense. The only reason to use that I can think of is as placeholders in self-modifying code.

sta Routine_0c86 certainly is weird. It modifies the first byte of a subroutine. Again, that could be self-modifying code, but such a byte cannot be an immediate data byte or part of an address, making that less likely.

Things like jsr $ffff also are weird. Why would there be a subroutine starting at the last addressable byte?
Couldn't it just be that someone got a copy of the password some years ago and now sold the list of credentials to someone else, who then tried to use it? Maybe the original owner of the list didn't realize some of the credentials was for LastPass, for example.

I'm still seeing hackers trying to log on using passwords I haven't used in ~10 years, because it's on a list somewhere.
Personally I find the Gmail UI to be unusable for serious work. The threading is awful (based on subject instead of headers and collapses everything into a linear sequence) quickly going through an inbox is painful because the split view is incredibly basic and the way it tracks read-status in threads is far too unreliable to find what you need to see. Plus every time you open a long thread you need to scroll forever to get to the new messages. It makes me understand why most of my coworkers don't read their email.
Fascinating, I hadn't seen that report. What I said was based on estimates made in 2020 and I never went back to check otherwise. Thanks, editing my comment now.
Musician blames her tinnitus on the vaccine and not on the COVID-19 that she caught.

Of course.
You mean most of America is designed to be car-dependent. So, yes, in the current design it needs cars.

I wasn't saying we could just suddenly ban them tomorrow.

The solution is hard because of how bad we've gotten things. But the solution has little authoritarian about it. We just change our priorities for the design of public infrastructure. We don't even need to actually ban cars at all. Make it practical and enjoyable to do everything by train, bike, or walking whenever possible and most people will happily do it. The result is a huge decrease in deaths both through healthier living and less cars.

https://www.youtube.com/c/NotJustBikes/videos describes things pretty well and accessibly. In short: the Netherlands was on track 40 years ago to be nearly as car-dependent as the U.S. and yet protesters blocked some highway proposals and the country went in a different direction. Today, it's the best designed place in the world, and its even better for drivers too.
That's a pretty bad idea IMO. Putting people in a panopticon has a strong chilling effect, no matter what disclaimer you put on the recordings. Creative, deep work needs space to make blunders in private, scientists are no exception. They'll just use their personal laptops or document every experiment and mistake and script to death, getting done a lot less actual research.

Plus, it will be pretty much useless im practice since you'd have to be an expert in that niche yourself to know what's correct (you're not getting any extra docs or context) and probably most of it will be some kind of incorrect, possibly very subtly. The only people who could profit tremendously are the competition who aim to snipe that particular paper. Science is pretty dirty and ruthless often as not, I totally could see this happen.
The show "Burn Notice" does a lot of this as well, but with James Bond spy antics. Lots of which involve different ways to open doors. There was one episode where he explains that when you have to walk through a door in a hostile area, you have to assume someone is hiding behind the door ready to ambush you (but such a hiding spot would be a bad idea since you can just slam the door open and hit them with it, which he does).

So...when you say "...was setup to share passwords with others..." is there a chance that this also means the master password was shared with one or more others?
I would personally avoid ASUS as they tend to use Broadcom NICs, which never have good free software support. If one was recommended, maybe it was an exception, but I'd still try to avoid ASUS.

If you want a cheap rec that's easy to get OpenWrt on, get a Netgear R6220 off eBay. I've gotten 3 of them for $20 each or so.
So what do you do to remember passwords? Do you write them down on paper, or maybe save in browser? I'm curious, I've pondered writing down my pivotal passwords on paper and hiding in a book or something.
In the US, traffic fatalities went up in 2020. The typical congestion of dangerous stroads has a calming effect on speeds, and that was absent with the enormous drop in traffic.
I've had the same problem in the EU, we were basically ripped off by Booking.com Transport Ltd. Support was not helpful at all and we did not get any kind of refund. So we went to a local car rental company's reception desk and rented another car. Every time we rented from small companies we had no issues. Sixt, Herz, Avis and Budget are the worst. Europacar ripped off my in laws of the fuel deposit.
You said you were a consultant in your initial introduction, at least that's what I concluded as well.

As someone who had a very diverse primary education including 6 years of homeschooling, I can tell you OP here is very on the money. Without going anonymous I won't go into much further anecdote, but I can tell they actually experienced the lifestyle.

Maybe there are some "well adjusted and normal" home school groups out there, but I never encountered one. When you talk to these parents you will only get the social proof they want to hear - the parents are absolutely having positive social experiences. Perhaps delusionally so. Especially the types of folks drawn to home schooling to begin with.

I'm not saying it can't be done - but that blocker should be big because it's often simply talked around and the parents saying their kids were well-socialized often are saying it only from their perspective. I too, have seen much more estrangement from parents from my home schooled vs. other friends and it's not remotely close.

I think it's primarily a form of self-selection. Perhaps the pool of parents selecting to homeschool after COVID has changed considerably since prior to it, but I'm skeptical. It takes an exceedingly exceptional and dedicated parent (and probably child) for this to work out in the end. There are anecdotes out there, but they typically to be of the "very upper class" kind where a kid is exposed to university level educators at a very young age.

At least consider an offline manager, one where you control updates and backups. Either way, even using a dodgy solution (like LastPass) is probably statistically better than not using a manager at all…

Well, that's what you get for using income taxes to improve the value of privately owned land.
That's kinda wild and really counter-intuitive. From the article:

NHTSA’s research suggests that throughout the national public health emergency and associated lockdowns, driving patterns and behaviors changed significantly, and that drivers who remained on the roads engaged in more risky behavior, including speeding, failing to wear seat belts, and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

I use the following on Linux to create things like this: https://vimeo.com/641668961

- OBS Studio to record video

- Google Sheets to keep track of different segments of the video

- ffmpeg to split the original video into separate chunks (one per 'scene')

- openshot to arrange the scenes into the full video (speeding up some scenes and maybe slowing down others)

- (don't remember) for recording voiceovers

- sox for normalizing volume of voiceovers

- openshot for adding the voiceovers in the right spots (with the help of my Google Sheet) and background music
You can be atheist with a spiritual practice. Meditation is often a non-religious practice ironically. Religious people have meditation-like rituals, but it's less likely to be sitting down clearing your head.

Also I don't believe GP said they were non-spiritual. Finding forgiveness for yourself and reflecting on moral values is a spiritual act.
> the fact of sin

Yeah, there's your problem right there. At the risk of stating what should be painfully obvious to any sane person, there is no "fact of sin", and you certainly can't use the claim of a "fact of sin" as a justification for the idea of original sin. It's a completely circular argument. Garbage in, garbage out.
I'd like to add some things:

There are some that suggest Jesus did A LOT during the 3 days he "was dead".

He went to hell. The phrase "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me" suggests he was spiritually separate from God the father - a fate worse than physical death.

He delivered previously dead Jews to heaven

He poured His blood out on a replica temple in heaven as THE lamb sacrifice for everyone who accepted His sacrifice. This is a LITERAL sacrifice - separate from "being human for 30 years sacrifice". Keep in mind that Jesus is the High Priest, he is THE person to make sacrifice for sins, and he is also THE object that was killed for those sins.
A lot of 'citation needed' and caveats based on our current understanding of physics.
After reading that is wasn't phishing, my first thought is that they use log4j internally and the attempts to extract user passwords via email came from the inside.
As I cited elsewhere in the thread: suicides went down in 2020, not up[1].

Drug overdose deaths are indeed up[2]. But they're an order of magnitude below COVID deaths, even before adjusting for undercounting.

(IANAL, etc.) My understanding is that in legal contexts, the term “unenforceable” doesn’t necessarily refer to things that can’t be physically enforced in reality (like “the undersigned agrees to think about a white elephant once per day”) but to things that, if enforced, would violate a pre-existing law or part of the jurisdiction’s constitution (or equivalent “meta-law”).

So if a country’s court decided that the owner of a piece of IP could license it to other people, but that they could not dictate the terms under which it would be redistributed (because that’s how “free speech” is interpreted in that country) then they would rule the GPL unenforceable in their country.

This seems unlikely in most countries, but until it actually gets tested in a given country’s courts, it cannot be 100% ruled out. Most companies think the risk of the GPL standing up is high enough that they don’t want to be the ones to test it, so they comply.

A recent article and HN discussion on that topic: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29492129
I am not saying pro-CCP content is reaching the front page. All I am saying is pro China / anti-west comments are common in threads about China. In this very thread there are many comments basically saying the US and the rest of the western countries are no different than the CCP. This thread has nothing to do with the west other than Valve being a western company. I wouldn't mind a conversation about the companies in the west doing business in China or western countries restricting Chinese companies, but that is often times not what we are seeing.

Most of the posters on HN live in the west and likely consider the government of the country they live in to be better (morally) to the government of China. Seeing posts that are pro-western is to be expected for that reason. Like I said above, I am not saying there is a problem with pro CCP posts making the front page. If China does something good, I would have no issues with an article about it making the front page.

I would also note that posts that are critical of the west (especially US) do make it to the front page. In those posts at worst we see an acceptance that it happened and maybe some arguments that we should do more to try to fix the wrongs done. When we have a China post we see deflection and sometimes denial of human rights violations. When there was a post about the Uyghurs there were multiple commenters saying we can't trust the western intelligence agencies and news organizations. When is the last time you saw comments like that when it was against a western country?
I also find them interesting, but what interests me is why Japan, not China, Thailand, Korea, or Malaysia is the most interesting to "nerds".
You trusted an online service to look after your passwords. Use something local, like 1password. I have no idea why anyone would use a hosted solution like LastPass. Of course something will happen?
The worst are the ones that will somehow dig up your company desk phone # and call you in the middle of the day at work.

Is this something unique to the personalities of people that thrive at sales jobs? I've encountered this sort of behavior with real estate agents, car salesmen*, and of course, third party headhunter/recruiters. They love phone calls, will try to get you on the phone no matter what, and actively try to avoid e-mails/text/etc.

* although, I recently purchased a car a few weeks ago, and nearly all my communication with the salesman was done via e-mail and text. Very pleasant experience, but I wonder if this is the new norm, or if he was a unique exception.
This. You should be able to subclass the DOM creation functions to specify your customized version, and have it spit out the custom tag for it.

> Griggs v. Duke Power held that if a test has a disparate impact on ethnic minorities, then the burden of proof is on employers to demonstrate that the test is reasonably related to the job.

It actually held that for any employer-imposed hiring requirement (not merely a test), and later cases have made it clear that applies pretty much to any element of the hiring, advancement, retention, or disciplinary process.

> The practical effect is that private employers are highly unlikely to use these tests

No, its not. The practical effect is that employers doing cargo cult HR (which is quite common) are highly unlikely to use the specific tests that have been at issue in superficially well-known cases like Griggs (e.g., specifically due to Griggs, IQ tests) even when they could easily meet the test laid out Griggs but simultaneously using many employer-imposed job requirements for which they could not meet the test.

OTOH, employers that have decent legal advice regularly use tests of even the specific types that have been problematic in other cases, but make sure that there is a job rationale supported by evidence for both tests and other requirements in case they are challenged, because that’s the thing that actually matters.

Proficiency exams are exceedingly common (heck, when I did clerical temporary work for a while, it was pretty much the entirety of the hiring and placement process.)
Can someone explain how they come up with the "expected deaths" number? The article doesn't explain how this number is calculated or which assumptions were made to come up with the number. Is this a moving average of earlier years? Does it compensate for the increase or decrease in demographics? What other aspects go into this "expectation" that might be relevant?
My problem with Spotify isn't the DRM, since I use it mostly to play either background music or find different things to listen to--like I used to use satellite radio. The problem with Spotify is that the artists (for the most part) get so little while providing the content.
But it saves lives.

In my country (Slovenia), cigarettes kill more people than covid did (in the last 2 years)... we had huge lockdowns, and pointed the fingers at anyone who ignored some of the rules (even though our constitutional court ruled afterwards that most of the lockdowns were unconstitutional), but just banning smoking would save more lives than covid took away.

> But the solution has little authoritarian about it.

The authoritarian part was limiting/regulating car use pretty extremely. I'm perfectly fine with making alternatives to cars more practical, just not with making cars less practical.
I would suggest you try and see how countries that aren’t as car centered as the US operate. Trains, buses, trams all can make it very easy to lose the car addiction. And it can be done today, no teleportation required.
Where are the search trees, heaps/priority queues, deques, and so forth in the Common Lisp standard? There are arrays, lists, associative lists, and hash tables, and a few scattered functions for manipulating trees of cons cells. Beyond that you are on your own, stuck either implementing textbook data structures and algorithms yourself or relying on third party libraries. Considering how well-developed the loop syntax and CLOS are, and even how many string manipulation functions are in the standard, I consider the lack of standardized data structures a pretty significant oversight.

I never said structs are a universal solution. It would make no sense to define lists using structs because lists already exist and are already useful as lists (and as stacks, which lists immediately give you). Sometimes a tree of cons cells works well and requires no further clarification. On the other hand, there are many cases where relying just on cons, car, cdr, and related functions results in hard-to-read, hard-to-change code. You are speaking of "usefulness" but I never doubted that you could get a working solution based on car/cdr, I said it is unreadable and I stand by that. You say that we are not talking about a specific use-case, but a function that accesses structured data in a very specific way without regard to any specific context or use-case screams "readability hazard."

Why should you dismiss someone who sees cdaddr and calls it an "unreadable monstrosity" as simply not knowing the language well enough? There is no need to get religious about a programming language. Common Lisp is a great language that I have been using for many years, both professionally and as my preferred language for personal projects. That does not mean that I should think everything in the language or everything that people commonly use are good ideas.

There were more overdoses, but fewer suicides. Your second link references teen suicide attempts, which are neither representative of the overall suicidal demographic nor reflect actual suicide rates.
You should a little negative but I read you twice and there is some truth in your message. I am actually working in one of the popular FANG company. I receive solicitations every day (3-10). I have no time to answer everyone. I have over 15 years of experience and the few times I decided to reply I realized two things. First, once you start giving a range of compensation the discussion stop rapidly for 90% of the recruiters. The market is "hot" but for folks that are not that senior (or with lower expectation that I have maybe). The second thing is that when it goes well and we start the process that everything is super slow motion. Positive feedbacks but every step take weeks to move on. At a point where I lost any excitement. Hence, I suppose my field is not such in demand... that engineers with less years of experience get these positions faster than me since I am strict about my expectation. I might have the wrong conclusion here but I found that this "hot market" is not "hot" for the whole range of expertises and years of experience.
