This was (and I assume nothing has changed) an endemic problem in the UK, especially for contractors.

One of the most accurate descriptions I’ve ever read about it is “Don’t feed the beast - the great tech recruiter infestation” [1 - though an archive since the original has been taken down].

You may not even need this to be official. Could just introduce a custom theme for your own use using a browser extension like stylish.

I say may since I don't know that would work for mobile or native apps, or maybe you're having to look at other people's computers through screen sharing or whatever. I don't know what to tell you in that case.

It's an under-discussed topic that this apparent utopia isn't available to everyone. Race, gender presentation, academic background, country of residence or origin, Twitter blue-check, etc. all seem to be correlated (no numbers; purely anecdotal) to those who enjoy (or don't) this utopia. Being masterfully technical, social, or political have a lot to do with it too, it seems.
if you are "cutting and pasting from the notebook into a .py file" you should look at `jupyter nbconvert` on the CLI.

I think there's ways to feed it a template that basically metaprograms what you want the output .py file to look like (e.g. render markdown cells as comments, vs. just removing them), but I've never quite figured that out.
The Economist (conservative British newspaper) was Lula's bitch while he was president, Lula was branded a leftist who brought capitalist prosperity, peace, and stability to Brazil. The Economist will forgive him his corruption in some Bagehot retrospective covering similar situations from the early 20th Century elsewhere and voilá, Lula will be anointed once more. He'll headline whatever is the new post-COVID BRIC.
I don't think that is accurate. I would say it is a combination of both.

The article you link to obviously makes it sound like it's an exclusive function. But it simply dismisses the fact that not everyone can reasonably sustain the savings rates mentioned.

Sure, there's reports of very motivated people that live on next to nothing and have a huge savings rate for the first 10 years of their working life, abstaining from everything including having a family and such. For the vast majority of people this is not something they can achieve and that is not taken into account by the 'simple math'.

I would agree with the author that having Starbucks coffee twice a day is not worth retiring later. I'd even give him Cable TV. But I'm not going to live like a hermit. Different people are on different places of this gradient. If I increase my take home pay, I can stay on the same savings rate as before and retire earlier (assuming that I don't want to make a certain percentage of my last pay during retirement and instead have a fixed goal for my retirement income).
I care more about working in organizations that aren't dysfunctional as fuck, and that help humanity, than what specifically I'm working on. I also care much more about working with good people than smart people. I'm most tempted to change jobs to secure things like unlimited vacation, remote work, and a 4 day work week. That isn't just pocket change, that's increased quality of life.
All of the light ray diagrams in the article are incorrect.

I can't say for certain, but it seems there are lots of squeaky wheels about it and lots of chatter on the internet about them, but AMZN/FB/whoever else aren't actually facing any serious repercussions in terms of being able to hire.

I'm a VC; there is zero chance I would ever invest in a pseudonymous founder.

That said, that doesn't mean the company and founder have to be publicly announced. I just have to know who I'm dealing with, and do my due diligence. It's totally fine for the founder to adopt a pseudonymous public persona, or for the company to remain stealth. But there is no way I'm dealing with a founder who hides their identity from their investors.

Investor-company relationships are based on trust. You can't trust people you don't know.
Why not both? Reaper has actions you can search for, but you can also put them in custom toolbars. I've been getting into Reaktor lately. It's like a virtual modular thing, but ranges from low-level (programming DSP) to high (playing instruments or plugging effects together). The main way to find things to add when patching stuff together is via search. You can create macros, basically little containers with inputs and outputs, and pull them into new projects and wire stuff into them.

I would not be surprised if newer fighter interfaces are already customized for the pilot in this way.

The null hypothesis is usually a strawman. People who use a p-value alone in hypothesis testing are essentially making a decision based on the integral of the tail area of a curve built on a strawman. Are there not better decision-making tools?

Not only do hypothesis tests not require p-values, but p-values are not even the full problem. Null hypothesis significance testing itself is too often treated as the go-to solution for a statistical problem. Not every stage of a study needs a hypothesis test.
It’s because if you apply directly, they don’t get paid for their work. So they hide the details until you talk to them.

I’m a software engineer that started a recruiting company. The current state of the industry is pretty bad. We are trying a different approach- we are transparent. We share all the details about the company right out of the gate. Including salary info. We refuse to work with companies that won’t let us publish salary ranges. I’d love feedback (https://app.facet.net/jobs/search)
Yes it does.

If you have a high salary, you are probably living in a HCOL area.

If you have a low salary for the same kind of work, then you are probably living in a LCOL area.

The savings rates of these different individuals could be the same if the salary difference is proportional to the cost of living difference.

Anecdotically, yet a few of my remotes after a decade of use on original batteries suddenly got less and less responsive. Change the batteries! Right?

Well, turned out the original batteries were still alive, but on a closer (painful to nails) inspection, it turned out that the silicon buttons/pad started leaching the oily goo onto the contacts on the PCB thus reducing the responsiveness.

Swabbing and washing restored these, but something tells me this problem will be back sooner than in another decade.

The early jumps in the curve from Covid were about six months ago. In six months a lot of the incentives comps unlock at least a little at a year, so I’d expect a higher movement rate in about six months.
Yes I did. Your comment indicates that you don't understand ceiling. The article is overly simplistic in regards to things like cost of living, inflation, and returns on the savings.

Do you really think you can save 90% of your income and retire after 3 years? This is terrible financial advice and completely ignores functions and changes in spending due to life events. Not to mention, I don't believe that function is legitimate depending on retirement age and current age combinations.
> While I'm sure 'nope, sorry' felt gratifying for you to type, the market cares very little about your individual opinion. Even illegal drugs, tangible items that a drug dog might sniff out, can't be choked off.

Lol. Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies aren't illegal drugs, and thinking they would be as resilient as them is missing many important differences. For one, networks are far easier to surveil than physical spaces. For another, about the only thing cryptocurrencies are actually good for is speculation, so there'd be few incentives to keep them going in the face of severe penalties. That quite unlike drugs, which get you high and in some cases can get you addicted, so there's some natural demand.

> The 'whatever random distributed thing I like' is something with a market cap of 2.21 Trillion dollars, which is like 1/10th the GDP of the united states. You make it sound like it's my random pet individual project.

Speculators driving up the price is not proof of resilience. Bitcoin is a technology in search of a real problem to solve, not an actual good solution to anything.

This.

Also, those highly paid engineers in other companies might be tired of working on surveillance tech but aren't willing to stomach 50% pay cuts because your company is shooting for "market rate" compensation instead of market clearing compensation.
Maybe it depends on the topic.

In the 3 years I've been reading HN I've observed a pretty steady increase in similarity to tech focused subreddits. Sometimes things are effectively "cross posted" on either site.

There's nothing stopping anyone on reddit from posting on HN and vice versa. I am a random example of someone who discovered reddit before HN, but was drawn to HN for what I also perceived to be better "quality of conversations".

In this case we could verify if the ratio of dark matter is always the same. The article would suggest that it isn't. So this might lend possibility to the idea. There was a video a while back about what can happen in higher dimensional space when a volume would pass through a "fold" for lack of a better word. It would be right there next to you but not visible. I wonder why this can't be a more popular hypothesis or maybe we're missing something.

I don't care about your company. I don't particularly care about how clever the people I'm going to work with will be. I don't even care about what I'm going to build, although I will do it with complete professionalism to the utmost of my abilities.

I do care about how much money you'll pay me, and how little of my time you'll ask for in return though. I don't need a corporation to provide me with "meaningful work" in my life. I need them to pay me an obscene amount of money with as little commitment as possible to facilitate my own self actualization.
What are RSUs?
You're not hiring because the average person is looking at salary data on levels.fyi. If you can't compete with the FANG's, if you're Crunchbase rank is six-figures, I don't see a high likelihood of those stock options going anywhere (especially if your startup is a decade old). Anecdotally, >9/10 recruiters and I politely end the discussion when I name my desired total compensation, which is N+20%.
The interface would be as simple as using google photos on your phone.

Played with the search. Hard to evaluate on salary alone, especially for senior roles if equity is part of the offer. Showing equity as well may help (percent times last valuation)
Thanks for the plug and I'm glad the book worked out for you.

"the SARS-CoV-2 spike, similarly to the more distantly related Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (MERS-CoV), contains a polybasic CS, characterized as being a suboptimal furin CS.

Well.. when the pandemic first started people were more wild, we all had masks and hand gel everywhere before they started doing it even in USA. My gf's parents were evangelical christinans so they believed all sorts of wild stuff, and I just went with it. After a week or two the family got more lax because of birthdays and family events and it was pretty much unavoidable, we all got covid. I was coughing for a day, and my gf couldnt taste anything for a few days, the rest of the family was fine. maybe a month after that,everyone said fuck it and things went back to normal more or less. It was pretty funny seeing the Comando enforce mask wearing when the government didn't. I ended up not staying with my gf, COVID and cabin fever and living under her parents house really screwed up our relationship.
>It's transformative, adding something new to the original work and not superseding it at all

A let's play is not transformative. You are literally experiencing the game as it was meant to be experienced. Similarly it's not transformative to put a song on in the background of a stream. (Video game music is copyrighted too ;)) For it to be transformative the game needs to be transformed into something else.

>it reproduces a small fraction of the whole of the work - only renders of the final work not the models behind it, none of the code, only the fraction of the artwork that is interacted with and even then only in one of many possible renderings of it

There are plenty of let's plays which play through a whole game. In terms of fair use you could for example illustrate what a boss looks like when talking about it by showing a screenshot of a game. Using your idea of what partial means you could watch a whole movie. It's not like by watching a movie you get access to the raw audio and video clips, or the projet files used to edit it. You don't get the 3D models they used to make CGI.

>it doesn't compete with the original work in the market place

For some linear story based games you could make the point that it does compte because you can experience the whole story without needing to purchase the original.
We all have to make the choice between prioritizing creature comforts and freedom.

I chose freedom. While my colleagues were living in fancy high rise apartments, buying new gaming rigs and cars, taking extravagant international vacations, and getting married and having kids, I was living in a basement studio with my college mattress on the floor and no car for several years while biking to work.

I'm retired and they're still slaving away with no end in sight.

No risk and sacrifice, no reward.
DM me - I'm an American non-technical startup guy who went over there in 2018 and met most of the VCs and interesting startups. I joined a great one and launched the US business for them. Happy to make introductions.
Every time I’ve actually been in the pipeline at a company, I appreciated having a recruiter as my point of contact.
One other thing - in evaluating a new role, the thing I can be SURE of...is comp. Everything else is a nicety, but I can't rely on it.

So if I'm looking to jump...well, either my current environment isn't great, or the salary is enough to attract me. There is no situation where my current environment is good, and you offer me a salary comparable to what I'm making, and I would make the jump, because you are a -complete unknown-.

So you can talk to me about the brilliance of my colleagues, the amazing projects, the great work/life balance, the autonomy to work on what matters in the most efficient way possible...and all of that might be true. Or it might not be. I've been lied to by hiring managers in the past, both intentionally and unintentionally. But ultimately the only thing I can truly rely on, that is protected by law, is compensation.

That's a good option. At the same time I can also work together with other citizens of my country to force Apple to allow alternative app stores. Our reason would be that we think society stands to benefit from this. Whether or not Apple "deserves" [1] a third of app revenue doesn't matter.

Allowing alternative app stores would then be the price Apple has to pay to access our market. They might not like this, but they're free to ignore this market. Other companies will be happy to comply.

[1]: I'm not sure that it's meaningful to say a trillion-dollar company does or does not deserve something.
So I have one question and maybe the answer has already been determined.

I understand we looked at distribution of mass i galaxies and have inferred that for them to keep a stable shape, they need to be spinning at a certain rate which requires more mass than is observed and hence dark matter.

Do we know that galaxies are actually spinning in a steady state and are not actually in the process of flying apart? We've been photographing galaxies for only a hundred years or so at high quality. Would we have detected that they're spinning in a steady stare within this period if time?
I thought this was going to say "because you're offering below-market comp"
Fraud from Uber or fraud from the deliveries? I uninstalled Uber eats and rather drive to pick or use any other service than touch Uber. Uber eats was one of the nastiest apps with the absolute worst UX I have tried. Germany had a website pizza.de a decade earlier and they would send faxes in the backend and even that was better.

Even plain Uber keeps trial to sell me on their subscription every single ride.
As I understand it, this makes use of the 'Smart keywords' feature that's native to Firefox[1]. Take a search URL, add a keyword to it, and you can then use it as 'keyword search_term'. I use this for a few of the sites that I frequent.

Yeah, fair enough. I can't build it opensource as it's super difficult to run companies that way. And closed source product promising full encryption can do nothing but asking users to 'trust'

Yeah, it’s very region-specific. Uber basically doesn’t exist in Southeast Asia. Here, Grab is king. A while back, Uber sold their SEA operations to Grab for a stake in Grab, and then I think they were trying to sell their stake to Alibaba.
