You think the US is engaging in systematic genocide? I'm guessing not. If so, you should consider why you would say something so ridiculously out of step with reality.

Salary is very much Berlin specific, for a lot of jobs you will be able to earn around 30% more in places like Munich, Frankfurt or Hamburg. Berlin and the rest of eastern Germany is historically on a lower salary level. Which was fine while real-estate was also significant cheaper in Berlin, that's pretty much gone.

Do you feel the same way about pirating music or television shows?
Find someone at the company who has spent time in both Japan and your country. Befriend them. They will be your best reference, by far.

If you’re struggling to find someone who fits that definition, don’t hesitate to branch out of your department. Often you can find someone in sales or other roles who has experience seeing both sides of these interactions.

The books and guides can be okay for learning specific faux pas to avoid, but they’re not as useful for learning what to actually do.

In general, it’s hard to go wrong with a focus on simply being a good coworker (being on time to meetings, respecting others’ time, following through on everything you say you’ll do) and also remaining more formal (minimize joking around, friendly smiles are good but don’t get too casual too quickly, dress appropriately for business even if you’re on a video call).

You should be able to do better than just aligning and averaging frames. (Edit: looks like MauranKilom knows what they're talking about here, and expresses in their comment it clearer than I could.)

Imagine you were running averages on successive windows of a 1D array--when the average changes, that tells you the difference between the values that entered your window and the ones that just left. That's information about a sliver of data much smaller than the overall window. It's weirder with 2D and random-ish movement, but if your average (pixelation) filter is moving across text due to camera wobble or such, when the average goes up and down tells you something about where edges are in the content underneath.

I'm butchering the words because this isn't my thing, but this feels like it might be related to some actual signal-processing task (i.e. undoing some kind of signal-mangling that happens in the wild) which increases the chance that there's some good or at least well-studied solution.

The brute-force-ish approach for text reconstruction would also probably more effective if it checked against a few shifted-around blurred copies of the text, rather than just one.
Meanwhile the original iPhone SE from 2016 can boot the latest iOS. And you can get a battery replacement from Apple right at the store, same day for... 49$! It just works.

In just 4 months the Pixel 3A is officially getting EoL'd. This phone was released in 2019 (fall), same time as the iPhone 11. It just shows the wide gap between iOS and Android.

> Apparently Qualcomm asks for a ridiculous amount of money to support any chip beyond a measly 2-3 years. Apple gets away with it by building their own chips

I can believe it. Qualcomm makes money per chip sold, Apple makes money by building an ecosystem. Linux support is a cost center for Qualcomm past the initial launch kernel, and we can only imagine there's a difference in caliber between the engineers writing patches and hacks around the kernel at Qualcomm vs building the OS that powers the iPhone.
IMO you are at the forefront of where query languages need to and will go.

Some programmers like you see that SQL ordering is backwards to human thinking, except in the simplest cases. But many people with practice and sunk costs in their SQL expertise will be resistant. The resistance usually wins the day.

But sometimes, a useful tool gets created by one person, and a rift is created in that resistance. Think John Resig creating jQuery, leading to LINQ and many other similar patterns. You could be that person for database query languages, but how do you ensure that?

Maybe imagine what made jQuery easy to adopt and indispensable for programmers: easy availability as a simple .js download; solved the problem of DOM differences between browsers. Good luck to you, and thanks for sharing.

I just switched from my pixel 2 to a hand-me-down iPhone 11 Pro for exactly this reason. Initially I installed LineageOS on my Pixel 2 but then you can't relock the bootloader, leaving the device completely exposed in the case of a physical attack.

I was skeptical of the iOS transition but it was pretty easy and I will probably never go back.

From the article:

Only songs released in the past 18 months get classified as “new” in the MRC database, so people could conceivably be listening to a lot of two-year-old songs, rather than 60-year-old ones. But I doubt these old playlists consist of songs from the year before last. Even if they did, that fact would still represent a repudiation of the pop-culture industry, which is almost entirely focused on what’s happening right now.
That's just, like, your opinion, man.

Florida had the highest net migration in the US both domestically and internationally. Here's the census data for 2021:

The largest net domestic migration gains were in Florida (220,890), Texas (170,307) and Arizona (93,026).

Florida (38,590), Texas (27,185) and New York (18,307) had the largest population gains from net international migration.

Notable in Berlin is that most folks come from somewhere else (mostly other places in Germany), so meeting friends as a newcomer is normalized. That wasn't nearly as easy in the other two German cities I've lived in.
A few points…as this is not exactly an amazing article.

“Also dubbed "stealth omicron," the World Health Organization is reporting cases of BA.2 in more than 40 countries including the U.S., India, Germany and Australia.”

It’s being called “stealth” because it lacks a characteristic mutation that made the original Omicron very easy to differentiate in PCR tests. PCR still detects this, you just can’t immediately ID it as Omicron—you have to resort to full sequencing instead.

And I all I care about…and it’s too early to tell…is if this is immunologically cross-reactive with OG Omicron. Hopefully antibodies still work against this one, so we won’t have yet another spike in noisy infection data.
The idea is to sell an idea. They learned from Theranos that you shouldn't sell something that is verifiable. For example, if you sell a legal service and that legal service doesn't provide value, people can verify that your service was worthless and call it a scam.

However, if you sell the idea that crypto legal services could exist in the future, you are selling something that is unverifiable. You will never be able to prove that the idea of crypto legal services was a scam. The idea exists and the future exists.

So these "Crypto Projects" will say something like "We are community supporting innovation in decentralized insurance and smart contracts" So all they are on the hook for is "supporting innovation". Which doesn't mean anything other than saying you on in favor of innovation.

When you ask for an example of something they support, they will list people "Doing interesting things". But those people also are just "exploring innovation", they also are not actually selling insurance policies on the block chain.
Oink was such a great site, I remember feverishly following tutorials to rip my CDS in FLAC format with specific encoders just to boost my s/l ratio.
> The web always feels terrible compared to a native app

'always' is certainly not true. Yes, with modern frameworks it is very easy to build websites which are slow. But it is also possible to build websites with butter smooth animations and instant responses.

I hope that in the future we will get frameworks that make it easier to create lightweight web apps, so that we will see more high performance apps.
I didn't say it's high. I said it's an increase over 55-60. The claim was that walking doesn't increase ones heart rate, which is, assuming we can agree that 100 > 60, is demonstrably false.

As for my estimate of my fitness, I think just the fact that my resting heart rate is below 60 might suggest something to that end.
I believe PocketCasts (the podcast app) has that feature and I really love it (except when listening to audio dramas or music :P - thankfully can be configured per podcast).

It really makes a lot of difference especially with podcasts since people tend to enunciate a bit more than usual and end up adding micro-silences that can easily add up into minutes.

As far as I care, it could be.

The end result would be more or less the same: people would have this new format and a new bunch of applications that aren't compatible with the web. I'm not really interested in bikeshedding minor implementation details of that level.

Personally, I let vscode do typechecking on open files & have a pre-commit git hook to typecheck changed files.

When it comes to starting up a development server & building the client, there's a huge cost to repeatedly typechecking the same 1000+ files. By cutting out typechecking & only compiling, I can reduce the webpack client build from 40 seconds to 3 seconds (using sucrase).
I don't understand, the law is clear: the set of all of those.
For healthy, already vaccinated people it's reasonably safe to contract omicron. I haven't gotten omicron (I don't think) but it's not at all something I would worry about at this point.

Concern is still warranted for high risk groups. It's important to vaccinate to reduce symptoms. It is safe for most people to contract omicron.
> If your "default" reading of any sociopolitical proposal is to assume it is an absolutist desire and not one more nuanced or practical under the hood, you have a wrong default.

Why would anyone "assume nuance" from explicit language? There's no ambiguity about what it says at face value.

Even proponents can't keep it straight in this case. An above user suggests it means "People should not have to work to live. ", whereas the anti-work sub's faq describes its mission as being "against work under Capitalism". To the extent that one labors under Socialism, they labor to live, if History is any indication. Notwithstanding, "living" can practically mean more than just subsistence since, obviously, no one supporting anti-work is starving. They're thinking about comfort and quality of life, not merely survival, and this is deliberately conflated. They can all quit their jobs and survive. Moreover, basic income, once it is implemented, would allow citizens to be consumers and purchase more comforts without working even in a Liberal democratic Capitalist society - that isn't contingent on Socialism at all.

If your buzzword means whatever it is you want it to mean, and others persistently don't interpret it the same way, then it's a failure. It only succeeds at increasing friction.
Some would say that starting from lambda calculus it would be enough to reach there.

There a quite a few things missing from this paper that would make it a good a good drug discovery paper.

First, they didn't discover a drug - they found a hit. 30 days from target to hit using conventional high-throughput biochemical screening would take 2-4 months. So, this is 3x faster, but that's not the rate limiting step. Validation and in vivo studies will take >4 mo and 1-12mo respectively.

Second, if we take this as a "we found a hit" paper, I want to know how specific your hit is. This would be one of the major advantages of using AF2 - screen against related proteins with some structural or functional similarity. This is the time intensive and oft overlooked part of good in vitro screening campaigns. Potency is nice (although 9 μM isn't impressive), but ultimately selectivity is paramount when targeting a class of proteins with well conserved binding sites, like kinases. If they found a promiscuous CDK inhibitor that happens to hit CDK20, then I bet there are tons of previously reported promiscuous CDK inhibitors that will hit CDK20 too.

Third, this paper is surprising because it exploits none of the cool new things AF2 could enable. In addition to what you mention above, the authors could have tried to counter screen (much faster in silico!), find an allosteric inhibitor, identify a PPI/complex inhibitor, or take a leap by generating a SAR series in silico and validating a few selected compounds in vitro.

Overall, this paper seems both incremental and misdirected. Saving 2 months in the discovery phase, pre-IP, is worth ~0. Not sure anyone there has much experience developing drugs. Hits are nice, but rarely the hard part. However, a hit on a protein from a structurally divergent class would be a major accomplishment.

There has been a massive psychological shift too. Everyone suddenly realized life is short and you need to take action before it is too late. Starting a business has risk and there is fear associated. All that goes out the window when you realize you have nothing to lose.

> "the biggest mistake I see engineers make is doing too much work on their own before looping in others"

> "For more senior engineers, it can happen because they like to work on their own and may be overconfident in finding solutions. It can also happen if the team culture is toxic and engineers fear getting criticism early in the design process."

Not saying the above statement is incorrect but here is an alternative explanation that is also viable: Senior Engineers are often hired into large large projects so that the company has the capability to address emergencies or modify the existing system accurately as it is often more difficult to work on a large complex code base than to build a new one from scratch. Those engineers sometimes never get to work on greenfield projects and "doing too much work on their own before looping in others" is a way to scratch this itch without the opportunity being taken away prematurely. It also offers chance to produce memorable work as nobody remembers the set of 3 point tasks you completed ten sprints ago.

I think the iphone SE is under $500. I used an apple iphone 8 up until this Christmas. The iphone SE is basically a slightly upgraded iphone 8 which i think has 1 more gb of ram or something.

I will sometimes just buy a model or 2 back used or refurbished since they last for quite a while. You could probably get the 11 for under $500 as well.
If it takes one minute to type check a codebase and ten seconds to compile it to JavaScript, then whenever I simply need to produce a JavaScript file without type checking I'll save myself the fifty seconds. If my editor's TS language server does the checking and my bundler is just compiling for my dev environment, I don't want both tools duplicating each other's work.
The mistake is "doing too much work on their own before looping in others."

Key excerpt/context from the advisory:

We discovered a Local Privilege Escalation (from any user to root) in
polkit's pkexec, a SUID-root program that is installed by default on
every major Linux distribution:

"Polkit (formerly PolicyKit) is a component for controlling system-wide
privileges in Unix-like operating systems. It provides an organized way
for non-privileged processes to communicate with privileged ones. [...]
It is also possible to use polkit to execute commands with elevated
privileges using the command pkexec followed by the command intended to
be executed (with root permission)." (Wikipedia)

This vulnerability is an attacker's dream come true:

- pkexec is installed by default on all major Linux distributions (we
exploited Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, CentOS, and other distributions are
probably also exploitable);

- pkexec is vulnerable since its creation, in May 2009 (commit c8c3d83,
"Add a pkexec(1) command");

- any unprivileged local user can exploit this vulnerability to obtain
full root privileges;

- although this vulnerability is technically a memory corruption, it is
exploitable instantly, reliably, in an architecture-independent way;

- and it is exploitable even if the polkit daemon itself is not running.
That's not an argument about forging trademarks - it's an argument for respecting patents (if the Pessimizer manufacturers got one) or trade secrets (if they didn't).

You can make an argument for trademark law on the basis of sunk costs to develop an intangible brand with intrinsic value, as opposed to as a consumer protection mechanism, but this isn't that.
The seasonally adjusted U-3 fell below 3.9% in May of 2018 for the first time since October of 2000[0]. I might’ve been a bit glib about “a few months”, it was closer to two years, but the general sentiment that the unemployment rate is extremely low right now still stands. It’s far lower than the entire period of October 2000 to May of 2018, which coincidentally covers the vast majority of my working life.

There are still some issues around childcare that need to be worked out, which is probably the biggest source of the gap between U-3 and U-6 right now. But this is still one of the hottest labor markets in most of our lives.
