Searching for "TechA vs TechB" was also a great trick. Until the SEO people noticed. They also have access to GPT-3 now to generate their auxiliary "content".

I think we need web search to move towards something more reputation-based. (Based on sites like HN, Reddit, StackOverflow, etc. that don't allow to easily fake high reputation. Or some kind of trust network starting from all your social accounts' subscriptions/follows and spreading your trust far outwards.)

It seems like yet another inability to settle on a sensible solution due to holding corporate constructs sacrosanct. Ma Bell "bought" some colors of light, making the FCC unwilling to tell them to hold off to avoid interfering with existing infrastructure, so it was left to the FAA to pick up the pieces. Then the mitigating actions of the FAA will be characterized as "incompetent government" when the real problem was corporate corruption at the FCC.
Thanks for the tips and for the more or less confirmation of my terrible technique. You're right that I pay no attention to Philips vs Pozidrive, will definitely need to start taking that into consideration. When following a guide, I do pay attention to exact bit sizes when they are mentioned , but for guide-less jobs I just go with "this looks like it fits". Will try out wiggling before committing.

I imagine it'll take a while to start to get a feel for it, wonder what's the best way to get a good amount of practice without damaging (useful) things.
It is still possible to rent or buy a movie on Youtube. Not sure why won't they try to compete with Netflix, Apple TV and Prime Video(and many more streaming services). They have huge install base and superior user experience.
I like Git, but it does give me tons of conflicts when a smarter system shouldn't.

I recently merged two functions from two different branches. It interleaved the lines because the functions were similar. Tooling can help this problem of course, also choosing different merge strategies i think is an option, but that in think is what Pijul is attempting to solve. To reduce conflicts when slicing and dicing past histories.
A portfolio of personal projects really helps. I think thats what got me my jobs/interviews, because they always explicitly mentioned them. Don’t be afraid to send a lot of resumes out, there is a lot of competition right now.
Being able to state with some level of authority that current science does or does not support some claim can be useful even in the context of a non-scientific debate.

I think the thing that pulls people in to YouTube is antithetical to YouTube Originals.

I personally know someone who claims to have automated his work with Excel after learning how to code. He ended up telling his manager after feeling guilty. He got a promotion and eventually left the team to become a real software engineer. The rest of his team was eventually let go since they were not needed. This was at a large company you have definitely heard of.

Its possible that my friend lied or exaggerated the situation, and also possible that the author of the reddit post isn't being completely honest. Personally, I'm inclined to believe the stories are mostly true.

Even at my BigTech job I have seen opportunities were non-technical people were doing highly repetitive work that could be automated if they knew how to code.
>The only way I can read or interpret this is that you are making some general reference to some amorphous group who draws undefined immoral conclusions from science.

did you read the article under discussion? I know we are supposed to assume that people have but as you are not reading or interpreting what I say that I think would be reasonably clear from reading the article, I sort of think I have to ask.

So let's try to clarify my mysterious statement:

"the people who devote so much of their time to ethical and moral purity, and searching out failings in others, probably do not have the time to develop the technical competence required to comment on the underlying data and science used to draw the immoral conclusions."

searching out failings in others - quite clearly this means the moral failings of others.

if someone has a 'moral failing' they are immoral.

the article is addressing an attack against a famous scientist who recently died, the attack asserted he was immoral because of views or statements that they had based on reviewing the scientific output of said dead scientist.

The attack in short asserted that he was an immoral man and that he had drawn immoral conclusions from his science.

I would think a passing familiarity not just with the article but just the various comments in this post would lead one to assume that the 'immoral conclusions' under discussion are not those of some amorphous group but rather those of E. O. Wilson. I must now reiterate my opinion that Mr. Wilson was not immoral in case you decide that is what I am trying to communicate, and I must now do so because I am really uncertain as to what you would decide I meant about anything. If I told you the sky was blue I worry you might cry foul because there is no sky that has ever been diagnosed with depression.

Finally the article that protected the reputation of Wilson found numerous technical and scientific inaccuracies in the attack, the attack was quite comprehensive but technically poor. Why would someone put so much effort into attacking a scientist's moral failings, using the science as evidence, but not have the technical chops to take apart the science.

So the people who do the moralizing would be people who write attacks of the sort discussed in the article this post was about, the immoral conclusions of the science would be the conclusions attackers claim was drawn by the science under attack, and I state the supposition that these attackers 'probably do not have the time to develop the technical competence ' because the defense shows they did not have the technical competence but also because I feel, as was evidently the case here, that they do seem to expend a lot of effort on making these attacks and it is a well-known fact of reality that if one spends all one's time doing one thing, such as defending one's posts on HN, one cannot do other things, such as write the article on assistive technology glossaries I should be working on.

When I was in high school (early 90's) I was a TA in drivers ed for a period. I also took the class the period before it. My job? Enter grades into the computer and run it for the teacher so he didn't have to. When I asked him about what grades to put in for myself he said "Just give yourself A's". So I did. Also aced the DMV written and drivers test 100%. But that's besides the point. I had the knowledge, so I didn't have to work the same as other kids. Been that way ever since!

Yeah.. you are being dishonest right now. He clearly said in my [3] image it doesn't qualify as genocide since the economist said so. And the thread he endorse is so bizarre. Because the USA hurt Muslim before they need to keep silent now when other do it? Who would say that other than people who doesn't care.. if it isn't the best giveaway of all. So I gave you a clear proof that a person, a cofounder of a big left alternative media, is clearly a inconsistent tankie who endorse China fully while criticize Israel.

I don't care some fact are true. There are a lot of nice facts about Israel too. And I don't care if there are honest tankies. In the original comment you said you don't know anybody like that. Now you know. and still ignore him.

I moved to Switzerland (from Denmark) almost a decade ago, and I’ve not regretted it.

1. If we’re talking software engineering, the demand is ultra-high. I’ve had to hire freelancers, because skilled software people are neigh-impossible to find.

2. Yeah, for engineers and other skilled workers, pay is very good, even the relatively high cost of living considered.

3. Before CV19, 100% remote was pretty rare. 1-2 days of home office was pretty common. Nowadays, things are a lot less defined, and given how desparate companies are to hire skilled ppl., you can probably negotiate something.

I’m not sure how to describe the work culture, but if you get into some tech start up in Zürich or Geneva, you probably won’t find it too foreign, and everyone speaks English well enough.

If you have a EU passport, you can generally get a work visa just by asking. If you’re from elsewhere, it’s a little more involved, but still manageable.

> Azure that can easily do 20 Gbps out to the Internet

I have tested Azure and AWS speed out to the internet and they too won't get 20/100 Gbps. That high bandwidth is for connecting instances within the AZ. Once any of the traffic has to go over the internet it's much lower.

The source was about the (only tangentially related) issue of product reviews, since I was talking about it in a side note parenthesis. Not about the main topic.

> I find it hard to believe a URL can be trademarked

It's not an URL, it's a domain name. (a URL is a string “<protocol>://<domain/[<http route>]”) and domain names are clearly subject to trademarks in France[1]. But it's seems to be different in the US[2].

Facebook. Let's not let them get away with the whitewash.
Is this for real? I've not received that email from Google.

If so, I guess it's time to setup my own mailserver. I've been meaning to do it for a long while now anyway, as I'm not comfortable with the thought that Google is data-harvesting all my and my family's emails. But with mailservers being notoriously difficult to setup and configure securely, I keep putting it off.

Time to get reading a few tutorials, methinks. Can anyone recommend a good lightweight email server [I have less than a dozen email accounts on my domain] and a useful tutorial on setting it all up securely?

Incidentally, I run email accounts on some of my other domains, using Yandex Mail for Domains [0] which [at least last time I checked] was still free. Im slightly dubious about using it for my main domain though as I've found delivery to be less than 100% reliable. In the past, I've had one or two emails disappear completely. Yandex's own mail logs showed them being received, but they never showed up in my inbox or any of my other folders.

I suspect Yandex have a slightly over-eager server level spam filter, which ate them before they ever reached my inbox. But Yandex's support are generally useless and were unable to tell me what had become of the emails in question, even when I presented them with their own mail log.

Don't put Junior in your title on LinkedIn, apply for Software Engineering roles that require 1-2 years of experience. Putting Junior in your tittle is setting yourself to be lowballed, let the companies figure out how much you are worth. LinkedIn is a social network, polish your profile and try connecting (without harassing) with people that are where you want to be (company, position, ...), and ask for a referral, or help, I have helped many people across the years. Once LinkedId algos pick up your profile, recruiters will start DM-ing you. Try companies that business model is to get you hired, for example: TripleByte, Hired, ... Also as many people already said, the first job is the hardest, once you get hired, the learning just starts.
This is how a lot of small businesses operate, and Law Firms are small in terms of staff. Everyone tracks their hours, even if their hours aren't billable.

The same thing happens at engineering firms small or large. Everyone tracks their hours the same way.

Heck, I'm a salaried IT staff at an enterprise level nfp and have to track my hours in two different systems. One of those systems is the same one used by hourly staff and has the concept of clocking in/out.
I don't think we are. I agree the the amount of just okay content that is being released seems overwhelming. But people are watching it. And its more targeted to specific demographics. I have friends who love X netflix show because its the first time someone like the is the actual target audience and that is reflected by the show. I don't love the show and that is okay because I'm not who they are trying to reach.

I realized as a 20-50 middle income white guy I was the target demographic for 90%+ of the shows on television. Even if I thought X new sitcom was garbage at least I could relate to it. Now that isnt true so that show probably seems even less appealing than it did before.

So I just dont watch it. That's fine. And once in a while a squid games, BEHIND HER EYES, or damn it even love is blind pops up and I get to enjoy bingeing a show with family/friends. More content is coming out and it is more targeted. Those that are hits get renewed and those that flop dont. It's the same system as always but more targeted.

Everyone evicted is a property freed up for putting back on the rental market. Some evicted people will look for another property, but many will move in with relatives or move to a cheaper state. An influx of new properties on the market pushes down prices.

This will likely be a good thing for most renters.
