Here's a similar Reddit job post from October 2021 (3 months ago) regarding NFTs: https://boards.greenhouse.io/reddit/jobs/3454478

""" For Reddit, it will always be about community. As the “frontpage of the Internet”, Reddit brings over 430 million people together each month through their common interests, inviting them to share, vote, comment, and create across thousands of communities. If there is one thing we’ve noticed with NFTs, they too have an incredible power to create a sense of participation and belonging. With every new NFT project, a vibrant community of owners pops up with it. Fans of today’s biggest creators and brands are now flocking to buy digital goods directly from them -- to support them, to gain exclusive access, and to feel a greater sense of connection with them. Over time, we believe this will only grow, and NFTs will play a central role in how fans support their favorite creators and communities.

Our team is a new and exciting, rapidly growing team that aims to build the largest creator economy on the internet, powered by independent creators, digital goods, and NFTs. We are looking for strong engineers and leaders to help us seed the team, set its strategy, and build for the future. If you ask us, the NFT movement has only just begun, so come and join our team to get started. """

Over 16 years I've lived in California, I never seen this type of brazenly open criminality around. I wish it were movies, but it's the reality.
Oh nice, thanks for digging that up! For some reason I missed that one in trying to find earlier examples.

Yes! I've been waiting for C to get a defer statement. However, my opinion of this proposal hinges on whether the implementation of lambdas requires runtime support. Not all systems running C have access to the C standard library, much less a runtime to manage lambdas (depending upon how they are implemented). Ideally defer would entirely be handled at compile time.

The thing is that it's nowhere close to 2 minutes. Heck, it's optimistic even if you're straight out of college or if you're explicitly asking for just the most recent employment; but if your system is asking for everything and there's a few decades of data to enter in a weird form, you'd be lucky to do it in half an hour.
It's an Eocene mosquito. Dinosaurs were already extinct. Notable about this period is it was the last time there was no ice at the poles and water covered a lot more of the earth, as you can see from the map of the Eocene: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eocene which means there were probably a lot of blood-filled mosquitos around during the Eocene.

Also from the article: DNA has a half-life of ~521 years so there's no DNA left in the blood.
This era was far before my time, but reminds me of a beloved computer game from my childhood, Lego Racers:

You can trim the beards down to get good fit. They can be as long as 10mm and not have any material impact on the fit of the mask, so long as you use the right mask-fitting process. They may be harder to fit on someone with a 10mm beard, but it’s still do-able. Same with CPAP and SCUBA masks.

Whether or not it should happen doesn't answer the question of why it hasn't happened. The fact is that the very companies that do automated processing of applications probably would welcome resume standardization, so why didn't they do it yet? It's in their power to propose a standard, settle on it, and require it.

I suspect the answer as to why it hasn't happened is simply because most laypeople applicants would find it too difficult to do something like LaTeX or whatever other thing would be necessary to make this a reality, and also, firms in general suck at adopting new technology.

I'm a little baffled how "licenses" for instruction sets became a thing. Old CPUs, anyone could clone them or write emulators for them. There's nothing particularly novel about an instruction set encoding, even if you have defined thousands of instructions, and the idea that they're worthy of patent protection (or whatever) is absurd.

I'm using "credit industry" to distinguish the private-market credit services industry from federal servicers of student loan debt. Your assertion was that the "banks" (which appears to be your shorthand for the same thing) are "almost totally disinterested at this point." I'm saying that smells a little fishy, since the "banks" have generally opposed reforming the restrictions on discharging student loan debt through bankruptcy since they were enacted by congress in 2005. That's it, that's all I'm saying.
This answer has, by far, the most explanatory power of all the responses.
Ask HN: Is it realistic to want to get a job in AI/ML/DL without any degree?
Hi,
I've had a few jobs as a web developer, mostly in startups.
I spent ~2 years in college doing software engineering(mostly C, algorithms/DS, web dev, but I started coding a long time before college)
I got offered a job before graduating and needed the money so I couldn't stay in school.

Do you think if I spent 6 months or +1 year on MOOCs/Books/personal projects, I could land a decent job as a junior ML engineer or something similar?Not at a FAANG or anything like that. Just a decent job.

Or do you think it's absolutely necessary to go through a Master/PhD to get a decent job in that field?
I honestly don't think there is a (great)future in web dev plus it's starting to bore me, so I want to switch.

Btw I'm based in western Europe.

Thanks

I have a 3 year old, who has a 101-year old great grandmother from my wife’s side. Had 4 generations simultaneously playing with classic Lego a month ago. This toy just sparks creativity with no measures of wrongness. I’m going to put off buying new sets as long as I can. New Lego, get off my lawn.
I’ll start with my background, not for ego, but for context on what I know about why this remains a problem. I’ve written 3 Amazon Careers #1 Bestsellers on resume writing. A decade ago I ran the largest paid resume writing service in the country. I currently run Leet Resumes, the largest free professional writing service in the USA. My company did the famous eye tracking study showing that recruiters only spend 6 seconds on their initial screen of a resume. I’ve interviewed the CEOs and technical experts at the five largest resume parsing companies. And I regularly interview the CEOs of the ATSs.

So I’ve thought about this a lot :)

Properly understood, a resume is an advertisement to your future boss to get you interview requests for a job you can succeed in.

Why isn’t there a single format to do this? At the core, the reason is a combination of personal expression and xkcd #927: https://xkcd.com/927/

We already know what is the most effective resume format for hiring managers. We’ve done the research, the focus groups, the AB tests, and longitudinal studies. The reverse chronological, one-column structure with black web standard fonts only, a single level of bullet points, and a simple professional summary and technology section, is, hands down, the most effective format. Google has studied it as well and came to the same conclusions: https://www.leetresumes.com/blog/what-google-recruiters-look...

Almost all of the top search results on Google vary from this format, however, because search results are based on what’s popular, not what’s effective.

Psychologically, professionals have only one document in their lives to sum up their careers. Even though the true purpose of the resume is to get you interview requests for a job you can succeed in, professionals can’t help writing their resume to satisfy their own aesthetic or narrative goals, rather than the hiring manager’s. There’s a desire to express oneself on a resume in ways that are irrelevant, or often actually harmful, to the goal of getting hired.

At Leet, when we launched on Hacker News last year, we had great conversations with many of you about why simplifying your format would be for the best. I recall one experienced engineer who had custom built something in LaTeX to automatically generate his resume as he incrementally updated it. I pointed out that ATSs were unable to read the document because of how it was encoded. Multiply that story times 90 million professionals, each of whom may bring just a few small extremely damaging customizations to the process, and you’ll see why a single standard hasn’t been adopted from the professional’s side.

From the hiring manager’s side, standardizing a resume format has largely followed the xkcd story line. A company or coalition tries to introduce a standard, which varies from other best practices, and the end result is an additional competing standard.

So the long answer is that standards would be excellent, except for the fact that users won’t adhere to them :).

Happy to answer questions!
Ask yourself, how much should an SSTORE instruction cost on the EVM for “scalable” solution like Polygon?

It’s still a blockchain, so you’re going to have tons of machines store your dirty laundry…

And the more nodes join the network, the more expensive it will be to store the CURRENT state — not even history. Let alone state TRANSITIONS as more and more dapps adopt the chain.

I mean … this should be obvious to any mildly critically thinking technologist, and it was even pointed out to Satoshi in the newsgroups around 2009. Bitcoin could never become a “peer to peer cash system”, and the “world computer” can never scale to “web scale”. It’s a glorified mainframe where you rent time.

And all because of BLOCKCHAIN.

That’s what isn’t scalable. And all this crap about increasing the block size by N just misses the whole point!

You’re not supposed to have a network architected to have everyone store everything, and have giant bottlenecks on top of that. And Proof of Work is EVEN WORSE because you don’t know who will mine the next block so every cleint also tries SPAM as many miners as possible with their transaction. They’re al competing to get into a fixed-size block and you’re hoping this is the architecture to be adopted by the whole world anyday now?

Imagine if BitTorret or the Web worked this way. The industry will move to DHTs and will realize that the fact that you can move millions of dollars for a fixed $100 fee is a BUG, not a feature. It means that the long tail of much smaller transactions ALSO uses the whole firepower of the network, like if a dime was transported using an armored truck and a convoy. It’s not proportional.
IMHO the author does answer the question without even noticing it.

At the end of the post, "The larger employers and job-hosting web sites need to get their acts together and work this out".

In a comment right below, the author says that this would be "giving job-seekers more control over their data".

Obviously, the larger employees and job-hosting web sites have no interest in allowing job-seekers more control over their data, quite the opposite, so they won't. And their active cooperation is absolutely required for such a data format to be adopted - so it won't be, at least not in a way that satisfies the author's wish of gaining more control over their data. That's it, it's that simple.

I've owned the A500, 2000 and 4000 models.

The A500 helped me to study how digital gates and ICs work using a software that allowed their emulation plus the excellent Don Lancaster cookbooks. I managed to "build" a device that could grab a value on a port, store it into a memory, get it back and send it over a serial line to be reconstructed back on the other side. It was awfully slow, of course, but the experience turned out of great help to me.
I also made some bucks by building and selling MIDI interfaces, ADC0804 based parallel port audio samplers and a very simple device which would activate a beeper whenever there was a disk write. Most viruses replicated by writing themselves on the bootblock as soon as a diskette was inserted so an unexpected beep could be a sign that something was going on.

With the A2000 plus the Dr.T's KCS sequencer I managed to compose and record my first over 20 minutes long prog rock song using a Roland R8 drum machine, a Yamaha TX81Z expander for bass and a TX802 for guitars and other intruments, then a Roland Juno 2 for solos and pads. It was amazing how the 8MHz Amiga 500 and 2000 (actually 7.16 MHz as the system clock was synced to the video clock which in my case was PAL) could record a very fast realtime double stroke roll without a hiccup (sw/hw limit was 1/384). I used this seemingly unique feature of the R8 by pressing both flam and roll buttons while modulating the dynamics on the instrument pad, and the Amiga didn't complain. (Any Neil Peart fans out there should understand what I was trying to accomplish:^)

On all machines I made my first experiences with 68K assembly and other languages, also developing along with a friend a chat system for the Dialog Pro BBS software.

The Amiga also taught me how fast an user interface can be if well developed, and how to make use of system resources without wasting them. I would probably never think that Android on a 2GHz phone today is slow if I didn't experience AmigaOS on a 25MHz computer back then.
Also, AmigaOS had no memory management, so if I allocated say one byte and exited from my program, that byte would remain
unavailable until next reboot (short of using dangerous low level tools to free it). This forced developers to be very careful when using resources: each allocation would need its corresponding free before exiting, and situations where one would need to allocate A, then B, then C, and one of them wasn't available had to be taken into account (usually by conditionally freeing in reverse order).

So did I do anything great with the Amiga? Probably not, but the knowledge and experience turned out useful in all my jobs, and still is today. To me, using the Amiga alone was the great accomplishment.

I have five rats and I've tried variations of this tickling technique on them both dorsal and ventral and they do not like it. They don't come back looking for more tickles, in fact they actively avoid it.

If you're wondering if I then continued this torment, no. I stopped with only an occasional revisit to see if my technique had improved.

Maybe the rats need to be tickled from an earlier age? I don't know.

I don't think the war on obesity is winnable, unlike efforts to prevent smoking. In spite of social stigma, shrinkflation, more gyms, more awareness about the negative heath effects of of obesity, etc., people just keep getting fatter. I think what is happening is food is providing meaning to peoples lives that would other wise be empty, and covid had made this worse.

It's very hard to catch bugs in a code review. I manage it occasionally, but it's much more common that I'll be working on something else that touches on some piece of code that already passed review, and then I'll notice a bug, because I'm already thinking about how that module should work -- I have already loaded the relevant context into my head. Loading that context just to do a code review takes too long.

I wonder if this has regressed substantially in the shift to Wayland.

Long ago I was told by a GNOME dev that accessibility support was one of the few government funded GNOME development efforts at the time, and that was accompanied by a claim of it being best in class. IIRC it was also touted as one of the reasons development progress can be so bogged down in GNOME; they don't break accessibility.

No dog in this particular race here, but I do find most of the above suspect. Except for Wayland obviously getting in the way, that does seem likely to stall progress if you're not allowed to break accessibility. Wayland prioritized security over usability, I don't think clients are even allowed to know where their window is placed. No idea how that world is supposed to support unprivileged screen scrapers, in X it's trivial.
"All human readable serialization formats are stupid and messy in some way".

A really great resume gets beyond the company names and educational institutions to demonstrate, with concrete numbers, how you improved things at your employer.

Reduced latency by 350 ms
Increased engagement by 18%
Reduced AWS spending by 23%
Scaled from 13 to over 300 virtual machines

That sort of specificity and numerical quantification is what makes a great resume stand out.

I can't help being reminded of the passage in the book of Revelation where John describes the throne room of God, and he notes "a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald".

That's a little hard to imagine, because a rainbow contains a full spectrum of colours, whereas an emerald usually has a single colour, so some translations interpret the rainbow as being like the shine/gleam/glow of an emerald. But the idea that at infinite energy a spectrum might be perceived to human eyes as a single bluish hue is a nice thought, like the coincidence(?) that this colour happens to look like a clear summer's sky.

Anyway, for comparison, here's an image from Wikipedia of a synthetic emerald:

Yes, juvenile rats respond better to tickling and tickling just after weaning will get the best results. Starting tickling past 3 months of age is harder and there is less research on it.

That said, some rats just don't respond well to tickling so if you see obvious negative behavior after 2-3 sessions then you should stop trying.

> current vaccines don't don't do a whole lot to prevent spread

But do a hell of a lot to keep people out of the hospital.

> Vaccine benefits are mostly personal to the recipient

Everyone benefits. Ultimately we all pay for healthcare. We are all kicking into the kitty to fund emergency healthcare. Your taxes and insurance payments are used in part to cover hospital costs for others. Everyone in our society helps cover ICU costs for the unfortunate few, so that should we ever be so unfortunate, we’ll have coverage, too.

The unvaccinated are costing an outrageous amount. Won’t even bring up long covid, brain rot, time off work, disease spread.

The unvaccinated want all the benefits of society, without paying all the dues. I don’t think we can afford that. It will break the healthcare systems.
