As someone who has traveled to quite a few places in the world, is not from the US, and has dated in plenty of places, I can say with great confidence that the Bay Area is terrible for dating.

There are many worse places for dating in the world, like I imagine somewhere in the Andes the options would be quite limited, but in terms of high-populated areas, man, the Bay Area is for sure something.
Some generalizations are following.

First, people are generally not good looking (like you swipe on Tinder or similar apps and you think, jesus, where are this people coming from and why anyone in their right state of mind should want to match with them) and they have very little style, where style is intended as a way to express one personality and ideas through physical appearance—and I don't consider looking terrible as a style. While there are beautiful people anywhere, including the Bay Area, outside of the top 10% (maybe 5%), the rest is quite depressing. Reason unknown, because as we know, if someone has not been blessed by beauty genes, with some money, and if there is no money in the Bay Area where is the money?,they can certainly become much better.

Second, people here are very needy and somewhat ignorant despite the money flooding the area and the "presumed" intellectual dynamisms of the region. It is challenging to find light-hearted people who want to have a good time (a distinctive trait of the person of culture, do not believe that people of culture should be profound-looking, always pondering, and boring af) and the emotional baggage most are carrying on their backs is in the hundreds of pounds. They are all reading the same books and watching the same movies, or if they are not, there are the insufferable nerdy types that want to shove down their throat their favorite Japanese black and white silent movie. You might think it is the same all over the world, but you'd be wrong.

Third, lack of personality. Now this is more challenging to explain, but you know when you meet up with someone and you feel they have something going for themselves? It can be called charme or style, it is the "je ne sais quoi". You get it from a way of walking, of talking, maybe an unexpected observation that made you laugh or think.

Well, I had many troubles finding anyone who I am interested in dating with that"je ne sais quoi" in the Bay Area. And there are very smart people here, accomplished, ambitious, but I could not care less of those traits if someone has not something attractive about themselves that is not "being outdoorsy" or "wine tasting" or a myriad of made-up hobbies that most do just to fit in.
Take Bezos. Wealth, power, smarts, ambition, now he is fit as a young college athlete. But I would not get touched by that man with a 10-foot pole made of 100 dollar bills. Zero style.
It is not just for the phone, the passphrase you set is also used to encrypt your data on the signal servers. Signal claims to use intel SGX to secure the passphrase on their servers, though.
Unfortunately some of early American politicians had some cranky ideas about central banks - which caused some economic depressions.
Back in the 80s when I was a scientist in the old USSR's Academy of Science we've had few Koreans in our lab. I think they were studying in the Universities and later had somehow managed not to return to Korea.

They were all insanely nice.

It sounds like you really just don't like being told what to do.

Which I think is more the fundamental issue of a lot of people who flip out about many things, including this issue.

This looks great! Testing on mobile (iOS) and it’s very smooth! Does it autochange based on time or does the user need to refresh?
Even if it had nothing to do with climate change I find the entire space to be deplorable. I see it as a heavy negative in terms of things it enables (mostly scams and crime), it creates other issues (like significantly contributing to GPU shortages), people involved in it are like some cult similar to other MLM schemes.

I've been interested in it around the time ETH came into picture, smart contracts sounded interesting. Seeing how it played out in practice convinces me the tech is fundamentally inferior to status quo for the things they propose it solves, and at this point I think it's been long enough to judge.

The only people I know using crypto in personal circles use it to dodge income taxes, order drugs or gamble (not particularly judgemental towards either, just super annoyed how it keeps polluting public discourse).
I created the OG popurls which started the whole single page aggregator thing. https://biztoc.com is my primary project today.
I'm not sure what basis you have for assuming it will evolve to be less dangerous, Since it still leaves most of its host alive I can't think of a mechanism that would prevent it from staying equally deadly, except of course that most of the population will have some degree of immunity.

This pandemic will inevitably end, after which Covid-19 may stay endemic, but Covid-19 becoming endemic and the pandemic ending aren't really the same thing and frankly aren't really causally related so to me it seems weird to express hope for the endemic to begin rather than the pandemic to end.

Anyway, we'll need to ride out this last wave first. I'd say hopefully last, but we may end up hoping it wasn't. Regardless let's hope it at least burns itself out in the process as opposed to smouldering for ever.

They already collude. There are services companies pay to give them salaries for positions across their industry.

It's not even close to an even playing field. Companies have vastly more information than the average job applicant.
Talking to ML chatbots is like trying to have a conversation with a person who's not actively listening and sort of gives you shallowest answers possible because they're distracted by their iPhone or otherwise tired to fully engage in a conversation.

If you play any of these circular tricks on those people they'll also equally fail. This just means that these chatbots are not thinking, but instead have the ability to utter words that make sense, but offer absolutely no insight or show any sign of intelligence.
As opposed to you, who is definitely not virtue signaling.
Thanks for your sincere reply. I appreciate your honesty in sharing what you’re going through. I am impressed with your meditation habit. Being able to understand the quality of your own mind in that way is something that most people will never achieve in their entire lifetime.

Best wishes you to you too, and for a positive 2022.

Sorry, code is not public. My initial business model was to offer the shade layer as a drop in for any Leaflet, Mapbox, Google Map so companies like AllTrails, Strava, Gaia GPS could use it in their apps but selling's hard. Now I'm leaning a bit towards just releasing an app with offline mode.

There are another base images from google that are smaller than the base images and come handy when deploying applications that runs on single binary.

> Distroless images are very small. The smallest distroless image, gcr.io/distroless/static-debian11, is around 2 MiB. That's about 50% of the size of alpine (~5 MiB), and less than 2% of the size of debian (124 MiB).

It wasn't a commercial flight. It was a charted, private flight. What they are or not allowed to do ultimately would come down to the service provider... If the service provider was OK with it, they could actually do all of those things.
it’s nice to believe, but a lot of our ability to return to normal requires these bureaucracies to be on board. it doesn’t matter that you individually are comfortable sending your kid to school, that school’s not going to be open if the consensus and bureaucracies are against you.

somehow we failed to coordinate the back-to-normal in my region when the vaccines arrived. this seems like the next best opportunity to admit that we’re ready to lift restrictions, so here’s hoping we can keep the majority on board this time.

The 'privileged' comment is 'I got COVID it was just like a cold, I can do this every year ... so there's no more pandemic'.

But with RSUs, you lock the purchase price in at the time of hire. So if you are granted a four-year grant in 2022, you get RSUs of stock in 2026, but at the 2022 price. So if you're granted $1k/month of RSUs, and the company stock doubles in that four years, each month you get $2k worth of stock.

Your employer won't do that with salary.

What happens if a company want someone BUT after he is informed about working conditions and the tasks, he wants more than the max sallary. Do they break the law by offering it?

Similar could happen if a person got some better offer from an other company and the would like to match it.
What an odd rationalization. This is NOT a good thing. Aside from empty shelves, prices will rise from lower production if nothing else and that can lead to all kinds of bad consequences from malnutrition to social unrest.
I agree, that is my point is exactly. At a certain point, we need to learn to live with it. Majority of us on HN are in an extremely privileged position where we can WFH and infact for a lot of us, pandemic led to more savings. But that is not the case for an average person out there. There are families out there have been ruined financially for life because their business had to shut down. Kids very much might have life long repercussions from the school shut down. At a certain we have to take all this into account before just initiating a province wide lockdown every winter (which is what is happening in the country I live in, Canada).
It is simply against the ToS to send spam over twilios network. Objectively this is what OP is doing. You are allowed to receive spam maybe your core business even depends on getting spam numbers or analyzes the spam for phishing links itself. You can receive and ingest it in anything you want you just can't send it over twilio yourself. Sorry this is not a design flaw this is just a bad workflow.
"Plenty of unvaccinated (the vast majority, in fact) also experience mild symptoms. It's almost like you've got an unfalsifiable way to always say "it worked!""

Yes, it's called 'Science'.

The vaccine absolutely helps to reduce symptoms, hospitalizations and death, even 5 months in.

There are millions of Omicron cases around the world measure up against various vaccinated and unvaccinated populations.

that's not really correct. nx is from 2017: https://github.com/nrwl/nx/graphs/contributors . might even be longer because I think the company is nrwl.

the nx.dev site is just what I'm pointing to, dunno what url it was before that.

no idea if there was an elixir plugin for nx (easy enough to integrate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRIXPTIKTmA&t=6s) but I'd have no hope of finding it now .

it's totally not the worst thing that nx was also the name Valim chose (I have no investment in to tool or company myself), but it is bad for both projects.
That is interesting. Please go on.
What does "market cap" mean here? The sum of asking prices? That's meaningless. You can put any asking price you want on something, and through a wash sale, even put it on the blockchain.
I play FPS games, and I perform worse when I'm drinking, and I get sleepy. So for me it works better to stay sober. Actually I prefer to stay sober even while watching a show, because I don't like the dizzy feeling, unless if drinking socially.
His bank account
Distroless are tiny, but sometimes the fact that don't have anything on them other than the application binary makes them harder to interact with, specially when troubleshooting or profiling. We recently moved a lot of our stuff back to vanilla debian for this reason. We figured that the extra 100MB wouldn't make that big of a difference when pulling for our Kubernetes clusters. YMMV.
I didn't say agriculture gave us leisure, I said it freed us up to do other things. You may spend less time hunting and gathering but everyone is a hunter and gatherer. With agriculture a smaller part of your society is dedicated to food production. This allows for specialization and civilization.

Leisure, as we understand it is a pretty modern development. In that study they are defining leisure as the opposite of labor. I wouldn't call that leisure personally. Partaking in or consuming entertainment and hobbies is leisure.
I've often argued chatbots are much worse than an FAQ. With proper structure, like you say, it can be easy to see what is and isn't covered, and for things that are included, look up the answer.

A chatbot is like an inefficient front end on an FAQ, you have to guess what they might be able to do, and guess what might trigger them to understand you. Best case scenario, you get the chatbot to provide you with a "help" response that's basically the FAQ.

A simple list of options will always beat a "conversational interface" to a list of potential back-end actions.

Incidentally, I think this gets obscured a but when dealing with businesses whose goal is to confuse or frustrate you into not taking action. If you look at Amazon or Uber's FAQ, they are designed to take you in circles and prevent you from getting any recourse or talking to a person. Chatbots could be helpful for this application
I was unclear. I meant the cost to hire somebody to do the work, including their salary.
Yes it’s literally a machine that learns!
What app? In most U.S. cities, taxis use physical hardware meters which are inspected by the city/county/etc. and which post a running total of the charge visible to the passenger from the backseat.
I think I'd still prefer to know what the upper range is. I sometimes get emailed jobs where the upper range is 30% lower than my current salary for the same work with worse conditions (usually longer hours with less holidays). These are a waste of time for everyone involved so when they're coy about it it's doubly irritating.

In the Soviet Gulags, a lot of people would die immediately after their release. Solzhenitsyn described this phenomenon, saying they had no struggle left in life after the hell they had just gone through.
I agree with you.

I also believe "AI" will always be a moving target:

Certainly in the 1950s, most automatic control systems must have seemed magical, it was to Nobert Wiener, even if they were "just" an evolution of the steam governor.

I assume they would be converting the crypto to USD.
> I don't know if they shipped a dev kit without a C compiler. It would be a total nightmare accessing all the 3D hardware without C. And they'd had the 32X for a good while before that

Their complaints were exactly that. Plus it didn’t help that Saturn didn’t really do 3D. It was a dual graphics but both chipsets were designed around sprites. So the Saturn emulated 3D by transforming squares into triangles. Imagine trying to do that in assembly. It’s definitely beyond my capabilities that’s for sure.

But you are also concentrating your risk.

If you receive stock from your employer and it does not do well, that will probably harm your salary/job as well and you'll lose twice.

If instead you receive the cash value of the stock and invest elsewhere and your employer's stock tanks, taking your salary/job with it, your investiment elsewhere won't be affected.

Jumping from understanding but not being able to reliably speak words to chording without reading or letters in between sounds like a really interesting direction. Are the chords chosen to relate to orthography? To sound? To semantics? How would you teach it? A caregiver can easily demonstrate a sign. A chord is a lot less visually salient and harder to demonstrate.
I've used Dvorak for more than 15 years and love it. I'm "fluent" in QWERTY too but am faster in Dvorak.

I also use it on my phone. Dvorak is terrible on swipe keyboards but I'm used to it.

It was annoying to learn but I forced myself to power though my initially slow typing speeds, and it was 100% worth it. I highly recommend it.
I just tell them no. If they don't like it then they can move on to the next candidate. Pay me what you think I'm worth or skip me.
Erm, no? That's unnecessarily reductionist. "Can compel you to pay taxes" is not the same as "authoritarian". Go ahead, criticize the President online in the United States. Notice how you weren't jailed or executed? Now try something similar in an authoritarian nation.

A lot of chatbots from 20 years ago did that. They would even use it as a escape route, and would just bring back the previous topic of conversation (from say 10 lines ago) when they could not figure out something to come up for the current prompt. It really didn't help the illusion; rather it was even more obvious.
The third movie is the best sequel...when viewed through the understanding that it is a war movie. At any rate, the stuff that happens in the third movie matters, unlike the countless pointless fights between immortal characters in the second movie.
Then lose your knife ok.
I agree. You "probably" want to get paid in straight fiat money 9 times out of 10. But if you are looking to move out to a different position and have already established your financial means, RSUs have some things about them that become attractive.

But you should be looking at RSUs as a funny money kind of thing.
You can go on the other end of the extreme with this. One dude we hired came in and started immediately yelling about the naming convention of 3 machines. How unprofessional it was. This was when renaming a machine was kind of a pain, and reinstalling took 2-3 hours (plus patches). "you want it fixed you reinstall them" (they were never fixed). We were naming them after cartoon characters. He refused to install any machines himself and would regularly rename half the vars in a project because 'they did not feel right'. One time he spent 2 hours ranting about a comment in the code that was a movie quote that fit what was going on. The next box he wanted but would not install himself was named Kyle after the whiny char from south park. When it came time to scale to about 200 machines I chose a convention that made sense (something like city-rack-machinetype-number) and could help someone find the box quickly. He still did not like it and wanted to still rename them all.
