You can still self-host a FOSS law compliant analytics suite. It will suffice for small websites.
Grayscale is easier to composite than color so if the lighting is off in one layer it isn't as noticeable or can easily be compensated for. Shots can be matched up with a common tone.

I had also wondered if streaming was driving some of these changes, by reducing noise and providing better compression reducing the image to simple gradients.
I interview candidates at a company with a relatively high volume of interviews and I use DSA criteria in my interviews. But here's what I do:

- I phrase the question in a way that has some semblance of day-to-day relevance. That is to say that at some point in the process of coming up with a solution, the ability to apply a relevant data structure will come up, but it will be in service of an end goal that looks like the deliverable of a sprint task.

- I come into the interview aware of multiple solutions and I am open to any of them.

- I pace feedback so that the candidate actually solves the problem by the end of the interview, no matter their level (which does mean, in some cases, literally spelling out the step to unblock themselves).

The rationale is that solving a hard DSA question doesn't give me all that much signal in and of itself. Watching a candidate bang out something with a level of complexity a little higher than fizz buzz is usually sufficient to evaluate whether the candidate has familiarity with the language. The choice of idioms and APIs can tell me things about their relative level of expertise with the stack (i.e. it can generally be safely assumed that an already employed candidate can hold their candle, and the question for me is more along the lines of "to which extent").

During the course of an interview, I can usually pick up a distinct and noticeable difference in focus between candidates, especially surrounding topics related to proactiveness/curiosity (e.g. does the candidate have understanding of aspects one abstraction level lower than the API they usually use, are they aware of well known pros and cons of some specific idiom, does their argumentation seem derived from personal experience vs parroted from a hivemind, etc). This tends to correlate surprisingly accurately to how much autonomy and growth they demonstrate on the job.

"Hardcore" DSA evaluation only really comes in as a criteria to determine whether the candidate is of very high quality when most other criteria have already been evaluated as acceptable/desirable. These nice-to-have criteria come into play in some cases where I want to advocate for the candidate when the evaluation panel is split due to one seemingly bad session (possibly due to factors such as nervousness or mixed signals), or inversely when the role logically demands a higher bar but the panel is situationally incentivized to hire down to meet a quota.

I've been told by several candidates that they appreciate my interviewing style, and conversely, I feel like I get a much better feel for the candidate than strictly evaluating DSA skills and nothing else.
C.E.O.s Were Our Heroes, at Least According to Them
The EU was specifically founded because European politicians were acutely aware that divided they would fall against the US/USSR.

We are at a crossroads: remain independent or try to get as good a deal from the US as we can like Hawaii did.
SSMEs are reusable.

Designing for thermal cycles and serviceability[0] is at least as difficult a problem as running a hypothetical rocket engine an equal amount of time in one longer, hotter burn.

(Such a design isn't needed and wouldn't be practical, but then again multiple aspects of SSMEs being reusable turned out not very practical either, depending on what version of design criterea you evaluate and how the expected vs actual usage changed over the lifetime of the program.)

[0]In both the engineering sense, as durability of the various loading cycles (ie lifetime turbine rotations or number of thermal cycles before eol or failure), and as being constructed as able to undergo maintenance and refurbishment between launches.

I'm pretty sure not, I'm pretty sure this person is going to argue until someone helps them justify their education expenses to themselves, or their teaching profession. They're fishing for a "you're right, college is the only thing that's worth it."
I could argue that the software is a web browser, admittedly one tailored around a specific use case.

Most people, including the court, would easily see through this as trivial sophistry. It's not much of a legal strategy.
I've served on a few juries. From my experience, the average person thinks its much easier to get out of it due to biases than it actually is.
No, we don't know that. You're using "technically-correct" here as FUD code for completely correct.
I've spent a lot of time fixing or working around messes caused by people who don't know algorithms and data structures. If you don't know about those problems then you're likely to solve one without recognizing it and do a poor job of it. Worse if you don't have data structures and algorithms training you're unlikey to be able to reason about time and space complexity.

Unlike at startup or enterprise dev shops, at the scale of FAANG, those sorts of problems (e.g. turning n into n*2 and the like) at a backend are very likely going to cause crashes or something essential to time out. If you haven't worked on a service with 5-10K or more servers you aren't likely to really get how quickly and how frequently things are going to go bad if you aren't very careful.

There aren't many if any engineers designing bridges who haven't had the entire curriculum. If you want to practice independently as an engineer then you have to get a license which involves taking a hard test which recaps your entire undergrad curriculum and maybe more. I peeked over my brother's shoulder when he was studying for the EIT. Not easy to pass. And like doctors and lawyers they have to keep up with their professions to renew their licenses. So, no.
This is not correct. "Quite few" is not correct English.

EDIT: on reading some of the linked sources I realise I was wrong about this.
> Players pit their Axies in combat to win cryptocurrency tokens. In 2020, someone paid $130,000 in cryptocurrency for a particularly rare one

Wtf is happening? I mean it seriously. How did we get to a point when someone paid $130,000 for a video game pet? Is that what humanity decided it should spend time on? Is it valuable to anyone that someone spends months collecting pokemons?

Yet, a guy with money decided that the best way to spend that money was to have people build some exp in a digital game.

I don't get it anymore. fuck that.
Ask HN: What's Your Perception of Recruiters?
Congrats on putting this together, it looks really cool.

One suggested feature that crossed my mind is to allow a minimum karma or account tenure requirement, in order to screen for throwaway accounts in cases where this mattered.
> to the point where it was comical

So much so that I was actually shocked to see characters actually dying in the most recent film.
You literally said "look at most state schools." How can most state schools have a cost that is higher than the average. Also, even your own case proved it. These schools are charging 56k or 34k respectively for 2 semesters. Therefore, a single semester would be 28k or 17k. Far from the 45k you allege in the original post.
Ageismm is illegal. Leaving that aside, I think you are selling yourself short here about entry level / junior positions. If you tell the recruiter you are entry level that is what they are going to do. Instead of just focussing on the tech, think about a framework for the transferable skills you bring to the table.

To clarify transferrable skills there are two aspects:
I am assuming you have prior experience in an unrelated field here.
- I would recommend you learn about the software development life cycle (SDLC) and reflect on work you have done in a prior role which can be contextualized into planning, analysis, design, execution, maintenance phases. Write down that story and practice it till you can narrate it in a believable manner
- Behavioural interviews: This is where companies try to probe your prior experience to see if you would be a good fit. Learn about the STAR method and see what experience / stories you can have in your aresnal that you can commmunicate effectively. You need to communicate that you are a good team player, collaborate well, are adaptable and a quick learner.

If you can do these well, you are far ahead of most other candidates.

Regarding the ageism question: I suggest reflecting on what is the question behind the question. Many engineers change jobs often and hence many companies have even given up on investing on recruiting entry level / junior folks. So if a company is willing to recruit junior engineers, then they might be wondering why should I invest in this person who might be in a different stage in their life / career?

It is understood in most companies that entry level / junior positions require a lot of hand holding. Not just in the tech but in how to work in the SDLC and collaborate well, reach for help when they are stuck etc.
A friend of mine also at some point disliked his job and convinced everybody to give him better equipment, more responsibility and a significant raise. From what he told it was really justified since they lagged behind tech-wise and then he stayed 1 or 2 years more. But it seemed they've put so much pressure on him that he needed a 1 year break from everything afterwards.
That's a very dehumanizing statement to me. I would never want to work at a place that doesn't treat its employees as humans. That doesn't mean I condone sex at the workplace, but I would not accept to be treated as less than a full human being.

Humans are not automata, and I don't aspire to be one, not even for "just" 8 hours a day.
He's probably making more money with his media that he would working there.
New AI: Next Level Video Editing – Two Minute Papers [video]
When you say dockable, do you mean that the module will be easily removable to put in a dock or just that it's possible to remove it for that (e.g. by opening the unit)?

Mainly want to know like... is this the kind of thing I could do regularly when I don't feel like being in VR, or is it more effort than that?
Over a decade ago, I realized that AI someday would be able to trace anonymous writing samples back to their original author. As I write this, I have zero doubt that the US government possesses software that can identify individuals from their distinct writing style. In other words, given sufficient corpus of known works (with representative word choices, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and other details) software can generate a model useful to determine the probability that another sample came from that same person. For example, I worry that my own comment history might be used to unmask my real identity someday, given that I have made vaguely seditious remarks here.

At this point in the game, I would not bet against someone here on HN coming up with a prototype to do this using COTS software libraries over the course of a weekend. If you do such a thing, please use your new power responsibly.
Looks like the Android 4.0 UI with a bit of neumorphism thrown in. I really don’t like it. I hope that’s not the style they end up with. The GTK window conveys the same information more clearly (and it looks better).
Is it any more 'rigged' than many of jury trials that do go through?
Neither is an adblocker, or the youtube-classic extension I use. There's no reason to care about google's intentions.
It is easily reconciled, both cases where wrong.

Original Nautilus and early GNOME developer here. I am very out of touch with what is current, so excuse some possibly ignorant questions. How is this a Rust-based environment if it is based on GTK? I assume GTK is still essentially the C-based GTK we used with some improvements.

Why is this called Rust-based? I’ll do some more research but would like to get some insight from more knowledgeable sources.
On a technical level you're right, of course. But the industry is more concerned with how content is delivered to non software savvy people (the vast majority). So controlling the tools leads to less overall downloads (in theory anyways.)

They'd probably have the same issue if youtube added a "download as audio" button to every video without paying studios.
Mine was this

loopTapApp.startPlay();
setInterval(() => {
if(loopTapApp.getBallAngle() > loopTapApp.arc[0] && loopTapApp.getBallAngle() < loopTapApp.arc[1]) {
loopTapApp.tap({preventDefault: ()=>{}, stopPropagation: ()=>{}});
}

>So yeah that's Putin's narrative: Ukraine is a part of Russia and doesn't get to make those choices. That's the Russian perspective.

Ukraine choose Yanukovych and what it got in return was a western-backed revolution to oust him. If we're keeping score, only one side has actually done a color revolution in this country and it isn't Russia.
The lawsuit may still create a chilling effect against hosting the forks, so it’s not entirely irrelevant.
One of my philosophy professors was excluded from jury selection, and happened to run into the lawyer who excluded him shortly after in the bathroom, and asked why. The lawyer said it was because he wrote Philosophical Quarterly on his questionnaire, and that he routinely excludes people like my professor who are highly educated.

Why? my professor asked.

Because you don't listen to the lawyers or the judge, he was told. "Big brain" people try to play Matlock and solve the case themselves, or invent theories in their imagination, or get into absurd arguments in the jury room. They screw up the whole process that's designed to bring a high level of rigour and fairness to the situation--what should and shouldn't be considered, how the law applies, etc. They're wild cards that turn trials into a game of chance instead of an orderly adversarial confrontation that's heavily regulated.

People mock jurors routinely, especially the ones who explain their reasoning in interviews afterwards. But studies routinely find that judges agree with the jury's verdict about 80% of the time.

Being a cop is a lousy job.

There is nothing fun about dealing with dysfunction constantly. And there is this illusion created that all kinds of dysfunction has some nice neat solution, and its just not true.
That’s downtime by any reasonable measure depending on the exact specifics. Is writing to a journal while the DB is down “downtime”?

Site wise no but DB-wise yes.
For the XP example you’ve come up with, I think the more pragmatic reason why people were swarming around Portal XP farms was not that people were particularly hungry for just grinding XP, but because grinding them was the only way to gain access to the really important guns and equipment (which you need in order to enjoy the actual base game!) And the XP grind in 2042 is excruciatingly slow (although BF3/BF4 also had this issue and there were many complaints about it).

The thing is, most people actually want fun. I’ve never seen BF players play it solely for gaining the highest rank/level, since the real merit for BF is that it’s a sandbox shooter that creates all sorts of complex emergent situations and rewards you for dealing with it both reactively and creatively. But there are so many aspects of 2042 that actively tries to hinder this “fun” and are arbitrarily forced at the players (the XP grind, lack of server browsers, the difficulty of changing squads, squad size limits, no global chat, etc etc.), and players genuinely hate them. So I really don’t believe that “most of these players are mindless consumers who just enjoy skinner boxes, and they demand those type of games”.
> more power

eg: log4j -- so much power you can enable random bitcoin miners with your infrastructure (tongue in cheek)

ie: Sometimes it's not about more power but about the smallest/least powerful implementation that accomplishes the job.

I agree that using off-the-shelf is often important but it also comes with the need to vet the thing in the first place. That's not always trivial if you care about packaged licenses from dependencies or a lack of hidden features or actively developed or a plethora of other dimensions to what the "shelf" provides.
Thanks for the response, that clears things up quite a bit. Would you create jump-boxes per environment or do you generally just have 1 with all the different service/env access logic?
Also in the earlier versions, the area you could click to move a window around was significantly larger. Down into the menu bar and toolbars.

That pattern did get scaled back. A few GNOME apps still do it, but most only allow it on the title bar now.
That does not appear to be correct.

> I feel sorry, that you are in this situation. Consider this: If they are willing to raise wage when employees put their notice in, then perhaps that has become the normal flow in the organization, towards higher salary. Or also: If they are willing to pay higher salary then, why not before one starts drama?

Well, interestingly, they are not being logical at all. I am not sure why, probably they think that they are making some kind of "savings" by underpaying their employees, as long as they can get away with it.

> Pay, work-life balance, what you work on, co-workers, office setup.

Exactly. I would be lenient on salary if the other factors were nice, but they are pushing heavily on not making working from home available. They are now pushing for a hybrid model, but, from their actions and the messages they are conveying, when the pandemic ends, they will ask everyone to return to the offices and cancel the hybrid model once and for all.

> Best wishes for the future and hopefully you will get that raise.

Thank you very much! I hope that as well.
Smart Contract: CRUD
What Satoshi Nakamoto and Elon Musk Have in Common
No. The law is very clear that you are allowed to make copies. For some time now you are not allowed anymore to circumvent copy protection for that, which is an illegal law but still standing, but even this is not happening here. The industry has no leg to stand on, this is just terror-by-suing, trying desperately to stiffle fundamental rights of german people.

What is "RAM-like speed?" It certainly was a different value 20 years ago than it is today. I'm restoring a machine from 1989 that on a good day can push 15MB/s through RAM, while I think contemporary RAM will do more than 12GB/s. GP's statement is ambiguous.

RAM has always been perceived as fast, but storage was always perceived as slow, for decades, and didn't begin to get fast until 20 years ago. I think if there were 15MB/s HDDs matching RAM bandwidth in 1989 it would seem a lot more impressive than a really really fast, near-RAM bandwidth-fast SSD today, even though 12GB/s is so crazy fast it is beyond comprehension.
Seems like the AWS Glue exploit [1] discovered by the same team is the more critical one of these two. The CTO of Orca confirmed that they were able to access an admin role in an AWS service account, and from there assume roles in customer accounts with service roles that trust the glue service [2].

What is your goal with better eating? Better health or weight loss?

if better health, please know that nutrition science is very hard to do and most of it is of low quality. Eat medditarian diet minus the wine which is best science based advice

if weight loss, its even harder. I read probably about 20 books about it. Weight loss trials work pretty bad and I didnt find any hacks in research papers. What worked for me (losing 10kgs) was following Stephen Guyenets ideas:

I eat 3 meals a day at specific time everyday. No snacking.

Second part is based on science of appetite. Eat food low in caloric density. Our organism treats 100g of carrot the same as of bread. You will feel similar satiety but eat way more calories with calory denser food. This is a basis of Volumetrics diet

I could write way more, but Im on a mobile. Please write what is your goal with healthy eating and I can try to find some sources.
