That would be over double the offer amount!! I don't think that would fly.

I have done some contracting before and my rate is far higher than my employment rate, but it's always been for smaller contracts... not for something that is effectively a full time position.
Why not buy an external drive instead? You could also use it as a backup.
Where is "over here"? That seems like an awkward way to give a gift.
Um, the twilio customer can be the spammer. They can send messages to anyone they want to target. Twilio IS running what is effectively an open rely.

To the degree twilio's business model depends on allowing its customers to send to whomever they want (which I assert it does), they CAN NOT let those customers send spam - full stop - end of discussion. If you don't understand why this is critical to twilio - I don't know what to say. MOST users do not want SMS spam.

Seriously, if you need to send SMS spam, use one of the "bulletproof" SMS spam players.

Even if we say customer is not a spammer, they are sending mail out to a wide variety of third party networks. In email land a closed SMTP server only forwards messages to an internal network or server under that admins control. As soon as you start blasting spam out to third party systems you are not a closed relay. That's literally how the verizon and other carrier systems will see this source of SMS spam and phishing.

The point about the reputation of IP or carrier / telephony origintion numbers / space remains. The use case here is prohibited by twilio's terms of service. Maybe just comply with those or find another provider.

I say this as someone who bought some INTC a while back expecting something like the following to play out.

Last year's (and somewhat, continuing) chip shortage will combine with a view in the US that chip-availability is a national security issue. At some point, the US will make a strong case for in-nation chip fabrication as a national push, whether that be favorable business conditions for companies like Intel, or negative business conditions for foreign chip providers. Intel already sees this, and is playing to that future game; maybe not necessarily win Apple back ( as they say ), but to play to a future environment where many companies that aren't 3T mega corps to not have very many attractive domestic options other than Intel.

Certainly I'm just playing a guessing game here, but that may be a potential future market they pitch to someone. "Apple will continue to play their own game, but here's a whole other market we see in the future".
Run away

The same happened to me 5 (?) years ago. I was young, dumb and excited about the opportunity. It was downhill from the moment I signed with constant extensions to my contract and excuses (like how my salary was lower because they wanted it to be close to what I would get after taxes when I became a W2 employee)

They have no respect for you or your time, and it's endemic in the company culture. Don't even try to negotiate this: walk away and MAYBE tell them why. IF they come back with EVERYTHING they promised you (unlikely that their benefits even exist) then you can consider joining if you don't have something better on the table. But even then I would still walk away 100% of the time

Don't listen to their bullshit about how it's a risk hiring you etc. You take an equal risk in a clown show of a company. There's plenty of opportunities out there at the moment to even try negotiating this one
I will. Thank you for the very vivid reminder. See also the thread about procrastination...

Yes, it's another interesting metric. Although ideally, a fast-growing focuses on cash flows and reinvest all the cash so that there are no profits at the end of the year.
Bear in mind we’re teaching folks how to rebase - reflog can be an intimidating dive for a first blush discussion
About half the time I get stuck during squashing and rebasing I end up trashing everything, re-cloning the repo and just doing one commit with all my changes from the other branch. Much easier than trying to figure out what series of errors or issues git is having.

Fundamentally, this is my fault - I don’t have a good mental model of git, and even when I do have a solid understanding of what I’m attempting to achieve the actual repos/situations I find myself in rarely line up with the examples to any useful degree.
In the US, many housing codes require that every apartment be furnished with a fire extinguisher.

Obviously money isn't everything, and I think Facebook has dethroned it, but for quite awhile Apple paid the highest salaries in the industry; at least that was the case for me when I worked there.

It's much tougher to measure other metrics, as how much you value autonomy and "not spending your entire day triaging emails" is going to be a lot more subjective.

However the Federal Circuit has held that “ITC findings neither purport to be, nor can they be, regarded as binding interpretations of the U.S. patent laws in particular factual contexts.

I suppose if Intel were to start producing an ARM architecture chip again there's a slim possibility there to win some of Apple's business. But you're right I can't see Apple making an ISA transition again, at least not this decade.
The funny part is when the person you committed to is yourself.
It's odd how indifferent you are being about the energy costs of ECC. Memory now dominates the energy story of many systems. Filling an x86 cache line from DDR4 costs 1000x as much energy as a double-precision multiplication operation. ECC memory costs 12.5% more energy. That's a big, big difference.
In terms of purchasing power they might look desirable, but surely they’re also likely to be massively overrepresented as users of ad blocking solutions (also pure speculation on my part). That could make them less profitable in practice.
The article as some bits of the chip marked off (with big red X's). They look reasonably sized to be the AVX-512 parts, in the sense that they are quite large but not the majority of the chip or anything.
True! Some startups, unfortunately, have a scalability problem and need to scale headcount to increase the revenue proportionally.
Maybe you don’t remember the software industry in the 90s when Microsoft was at the peak of their power. Nobody had heard of app stores but MS showed the world what a tech bully is. Putting profit over customer happiness, because they could.

Yeah I wonder why google doesn't allow to blacklist domain for users. They could basically use it for ranking (eg. include paying, long-lived accounts to prevent abuse). Especially on youtube. They only have blacklisting in news but it's too dumb (eg. I want to block gossip but it's about sport person so instead it thinks I'm not interested in sport).

Wait I know why, because somewhere they have retarded KPI that will go down if people stop clicking on ads from spam websites that only show ads. Who would imagine
There is almost certainly a workaround with the flicker issue.

I'm not sure I've ever encountered the second issue with screen width.
Okay? Like, why is this even a news story? Are Apple fanboys that desperate for any piece of information about their church they obsess even over individual hiring decisions? I mean, what a weird cult. People leave jobs all the time, especially in SV.
Web MIDI isn't for playing .mid files in the browser. It's for letting in-browser JavaScript talk to arbitrary hardware devices that speak the MIDI protocol; this includes not only things like keyboards and synthesizers, but also stage lighting systems and other theatrical devices that use MIDI as a control protocol (so that you can have, e.g., lighting and sound cues happen in sync, because they're all centrally controlled by a single computer). In general, any API that controls hardware counts as security-sensitive; you don't want MITMs to be able to hijack your hardware devices and make them do something bad.
Ok. On my end the first one I had that could do fast compute was a GTX 280, then a 590, then a 1080ti which I still have.

Maybe I've just been lucky but over all that time not a single glitch. The main gripe I have with them is having you jump through hoops to be allowed to download certain libraries. That's just a complete nuisance. And I think their TOS are unethical.
Maybe reintroducing a free modern amphora equivalent instead of making people pay and forcing them to waste it in a toilet could help?

If you roll over and accept these terms, you've set the precedent that this company can mislead/abuse you in the future.

Don't be a doormat. Ask why the change. If they still push for contractor, your pay expectations just went up. There isn't going to be a unilateral change to an employment contract that is ever good to both parties, so you'd better equalize it with adjusted compensation.

Don't fall in love with companies, either. If they won't budge, you walk away.
Right, but you are using user login, and I think that gives you a lot more rate than a single account doing all the requests, which is what you need to get the no-sign-in experience on songdata.io - right?

This is why I love open-source and put up with oddities in Linux / BSD / CLI tools / whatever. They're liberating to use. They don't try to sell you stuff. You're in control & it does what it says on the tin.
I have such a weird relationship with checked exceptions in Java. I like checked exceptions because it makes exceptions part of the API. However, much of the time it's super intrusive and try-catch can be clunky. At this point I'm convinced there is no good solution from a language level for exceptions/errors. They just suck.

His sentiment is better understood in terms of the balance of nature.

He posted this on his Twitter a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysa5OBhXz-Q

The video is titled "How Wolves Change Rivers".

"When wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park in the United States after being absent nearly 70 years, the most remarkable "trophic cascade" occurred."

As the video explains, unchecked herboviore species has caused a lot of damage to the environment, grazing much of the vegetation. The introduction of wolves radically changed the behavior of the prey species and they start avoiding certain places like valleys where they can easily be trapped. This allowed the vegetation to regenerate and trees started to grow. This resulted in birds moving in. Beavers started to increase, and the dams they built provided habitat for a bunch of other species of animals. And so on and so forth. The regeneration of the vegetation provided stability to the banks of the rivers so they collapsed less often.

FWIW, a mid-1980's high-end multi-user CP/M system I was looking at has 1 meg of RAM for four users: 64K for each user, and the rest to run the system. It was in the $8,000 range, without the terminals.

"Money Doesn't Stink"
Malthus didn't lose this argument - malthusian assessment of scarcity ultimately lives at the heart of capitalism and free markets. If it didn't, we'd all have access to whatever we wanted. Instead, we use markets as the best tool to distribute scarce resources. And in many countries we include the basic necessities of life (food, housing, clothing, etc) as those scarce resources.

Energy is limited and production of energy has costs and side effects. Sure, over time we can increase our production of energy, but again - with costs and side effects depending on how we choose to do it. And at any point in time our access to energy is limited and we need to make choices about how that access is distributed.

Right now we use markets to do that. But we've clearly seen that markets, with out intentional, ethical and moral guidance will often make insane choices.

And note, I say this as someone who believes post-scarcity (with in wise limits) for many of the basics is more or less with in our technological reach. IE. We can reach a point of post-scarcity for food, housing, clothing, energy where everyone has what they need and a good chunk of what they want as long as we don't let anyone hoard and insane amount of these resources or burn them away in frivilous uses.

While the analogies in these articles are great, from personal experience, the second article's tips on how to beat procrastination are abysmal. Yes, breaking large steps into small chunks is good advice, but your goal should not be to live in a constant state of stress and anxiety by setting up "panic monsters". That's just a recipe for getting yourself burned out and becoming a "disastinator".

What I would instead suggest is reducing your workload, resting, and if that fails to fix the problem, seeing a medical professional to check for ADHD or other executive dysfunction issues. (It also really does bother me that Tim Urban never even mentioned that "procrastination" is known in the medical community as "executive dysfunction" and that clinical treatments are an option. Not saying that it's the root of all procrastination issues, but for major problems, it's worth looking at.)
I've seen this but haven't bit. I've been many laps through the keyboard obsession.

I learned Dvorak on a Matias Half Keyboard, skeptical of their brain mirror theory, then tried it out of curiousity on a full keyboard one day. My other hand just knew. A few years later, I switched back to QWERTY. Optimizing the alphabet isn't the bottleneck.

I owned a FingerWorks TouchStream keyboard, before the company was sold to Apple to become the foundation of their gesture interfaces. I never got the hang of no tactile feedback, and sold it at cost, a mistake. They're now valuable collector's items.

I used to use three Kinesis Advantage sculpted ergonomic keyboards. Their internal electronics was dated and unstable; I gave up.
I recently went way down the mechanical/ergonomic rabbit hole, trying designs such as the Ergodox EZ, Planck EZ, GergoPlex, and various more standard 65% designs with a variety of switch choices. Then I tried a Topre rubber dome keyboard. They're called "endgame" for a reason: They're obsession killers. They're indisputably a better feel than any mechanical switch, and there's nothing one can to do customize the hardware. No more forum pictures of your pretty keycaps because you can't follow the seminar talk on lubing stems. Just learn to type better.

So I bought four Leopold FC660C Topre Silent 45g keyboards, and Hasu replacement controllers supporting QMK and related custom firmware. Colorful keycaps is high school obsession. O-Rings and lubing stems is taking electives in college. Actually redesigning the keyboard firmware is studying algebraic geometry in grad school. THAT is a black hole. Astonishingly deep open-source community, under the radar for most people.

My QMK layout is in perpetual progress (there's an unused layer). My fingers rarely leave the 12 keys near home row for each hand. 9 keys for each hand are mirrors of tap/hold keys, command/option/control/shift or select a custom layer when held, or usual key when tapped. This is an inconceivably effective advance for me, I can never imagine going back. I control all automation tools (Alfred scripts, window management) and control-xylophone program interaction, using a single finger from each hand. This is the sweet spot for effective cording, and a quadratic expansion in expressiveness over single finger typing. I'm stunned this hasn't been the standard since computers were invented, but we're creatures of habit. We still imagine we're using typewriters.
What cripples the CharaChorder is that you can't walk up to it with a glass of wine in one hand, and figure out quickly how to mute the speakers, or pause the YouTube video, or page-down in a browser. It's only useful once you are firmly "in the saddle". Even then, it's tuned for speed records typing language text, at the complete expense of practical use for programming or program control.
I switched back from Dvorak to QWERTY because layout for language typing is SO irrelevant to what we do.

My tap/hold layout has the peripheral keys still available, for reaching in with the hand that isn't holding a glass of wine.
What are your photos saying about you?
Disagree. TLS terminated at the edge, by a trusted partner, is perfectly valid and in many cases a great plus. You should, however, then always have a tls connection back to the main host, this is obviously not always the case and is wrong. Ideally CloudFlare would not make it possible.

By terminating at the edge it enables many useful features of services such as CloudFlare that would otherwise not be possible such as the “web application firewall”.

If you think of CloudFlare as a hosting provider in the same way as any other (which they are) it ridiculous not to trust them terminating TLS.
To clarify, I don't mean to say the boss did something ok, just that I think the term gas-lighting as a term is very useful to describe a particular phenomenon in various relationships, but is less useful if it gets broadened. I think this is something different, not necessarily better or worse.
Well I didn't consider machinery improvements to be an alternative to chemical input cost reduction, but I guess if they reduce costs then it is the same end goal that's true.

But I think the nutrient input will still be required in the form of petroleum and mineral based fertilizers though because alternatives to that I think are not only very costly, probably much more than total machinery and fuel costs now (which are roughly on-par with fertilizer inputs of the cheap stuff today), so I don't know if you could make up for the entire cost difference. If you did with your machines, I guess you would still get people wanting the cost savings of cheap fertlizers. I also don't know if they would scale enough to provide enough food.
That sounds nice though.
