> Rogan is dangerous because he’s an entertainer who needs controversy to sell hundreds of millions of dollars in viewership but a lot of his audience think he’s giving them something more than that.

By that logic, Neil Young is also dangerous. Technically they're both as dangerous as any other media personality or entertainer with a mic (or platform) and an opinion. You shouldn't be listening to Rogan without questioning, nor should you listen to MSM without questioning. Treating what they say as something that needs to be curtailed is at best patronizing to the millions of people that are in the audience, and autocratic/authoritarian at worst.

Saying that he's specifically dangerous (without highlighting that it's the same for others in MSM) is in fact dangerous because it's cherry picking what fits your biased narrative.
Sounds horrible (at my location). Much better to do regular contracting then.
I have ADHD, I'm glad I can remember to not put the underwear on my head instead of where it belongs. Of course I can't remember how a for loop looks like, that's why some nice people invented code completion.

If Spotify has to make such calls they're obviously too big.
Being a millionaire makes it a whole lot easier, but it’s not absolutely necessary.

I know a blue collar family who spent six years or so cruising and living entirely on parental leave and child benefits. The catch being that they had to make one baby for each year of cruising, so the boat ended up jam packed with them.

I really admire those people, and can you imagine a more exciting childhood?

> or I can have it today in private clinic, where I copaid 40 EUR

it seems to me that this is how public healthcare keeps private healthcare honest, by existing.

i.e. you have, and I have also, paid a double-digit sum for the privilege of being seen _today_. But that is not the same as paying for the privilege of being seen _at all_.

The BATNA is very different for the patient. A private doctor can get away with charging a fee for the convenience only, but since it's not the only game in town, they cant gouge to extremes, and charge a huge fee when you need to be seen by a doctor at all costs.
That is on it's way too (link in swedish https://tobaksfakta.se/nedskrapningsavgift-foreslas-pa-cigar...)

It's not about architecture. It's about physics. Once you pass a certain threshold, electron/current leaks and escapes start to wreak havoc inside any silicon. So beyond voltage, current and temperature, you're limited by the silicon itself.

I stopped overclocking systems after Athlon XP. This is why I gave that example.

Even without overclocking and overheating, I've seen and still seeing partially cooked processors which shut-down half of their FPU pipelines to stay reliable albeit with orders of magnitude lower performance.

CPUs are much more complex with their MCE and more advanced microcode structures ever, and there's much more than meets the eye.
May be true for UK, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Scandinavia but everywhere else I'd say it will be very difficult.

You're making quite the fallacy here - that if a quantitative amount is not given, then you can't make arguments about the statement. That's false.

ddevault (and other gemini enthusiasts) use this kind of qualitative marketing speak to portray Gemini as something that is comparable to the web, while avoiding making quantitative claims, and that is part of my grievance, as stated in my original comment.
This assumes that you are serving webpages from a directory with HTML and php files. With many modern services (for example, anything written in django) this isn't how it works.
I wish Spotify would let us hide his podcast from the front page of their app, at least. I have no interest in his podcast. Let me remove it.
I landed my $bigtech work last year via a leetcode process but it was pretty lightweight and tasks were simple (I do frontend, maybe other positions have more difficult tasks). YMMV depending on company but don't assume leetcode = solving NP-hard problems.

Also pro tip: absolutely do a fake interview before with a friend before each step. You'll fail miserably and stress af, but it will give you point to reflect on and prepare for real one not to panic.

Mainstream media is quite often provably wrong too, but yet not held up to the same standards (unless you're 'a conservative' with a "cancel CNN!" t-shirt) .. so when they come for Joe Rogan, and you say nothing, who will be there to protect you when they come for CNN/MSNBC/NYT?

Essentially, you are saying you despise Joe Rogan because he's mainstream, pretending not to be, and mis-informing, while also pretending not to .. so does this begin a new era in the American socio-political landscape where news is no longer going to be used to propagandize an entire country, and 'mainstream media' is going to be held to much, much higher levels of truthful standards than ever before?

Because its going to be great to see the disinformation inherent in the modern American media landscape be replaced with actual truth-telling. Like, a lot of us who don't live in that bubble are going to be very relieved to see the truth being told, for a change, about such things as Ukraine, Yemen, and so on ..

Or do we only care about Joe Rogan because he impacts the lives of fellow American citizens?

This is feeling like it has too much repetition. It might be better to compile that repetition to a table. Also, a compiler-to-natural-language should insert anaphora when appropriate.

One might also ask how one encodes motivational statements into a more formal spec. For example, what does it mean to say what the "purpose" of something is? Also, general specifications ("whenever you do X, also do Y") should be possible. Considerations like that are interesting even without the translation-to-NL aspect.
> Yeah okay throwaway account, will do.

Not only is this completely irrelevant, but this isn't a throwaway account - I've been using it persistently for the past few months.

It's clear that you're not trying to make arguments, just use emotional manipulation, fallacies, and redirections to try to spread your opinion to others.
Sort of. I know Taylor Swift has more album sales and Grammys.

As for influence, why do people care what a daily pot smoking artist, who was reportedly expelled from college, thinks about politics anyway?

As many have said it really depends. But for a smallish development company (under 50) there's really nothing quite like organic growth - which generally means word of mouth and/or friends (or friends-of-friends) and former colleagues. I'm from an island in the North Atlantic so although it's a 'city' it's a pretty small town - word gets around if you've got something good/new/interesting on the go.

As for actionable things - some local devs, in my area, started a tech/dev meetup group here that's evolved into a 500 person slack channel (in-person meetings pre-covid) and it's a great place to find people and talk about jobs/local market. Definitely not a short-term fix. Also, leveraging any kind of news about a funding announcement or big contract or local impact helps get your name out there. I know a few former colleagues who saw the company name in an article/newspaper or an industry magazine and wound up applying for roles.

Best of luck!

Potatoes are almost nutrionally complete (I think you just need butter and in theory they have it all)
> With "declarative" I still have to find out what's the intuition WHY it's supposedly better

Declarative is generally better because you move complexity out of your code to someone else's code. In other words, it reduces the LOC you write and have to maintain.

For example, say you are writing some code to query Postgres and aggregate a column. The imperative approach would be to query Postgres and do the aggregation yourself. The declarative approach would be to query Postgres and ask it to do the aggregation via GROUP BY.

Aside from reducing complexity, it's also usually more efficient to take a declarative approach. Dozens if not hundreds of people have been working on Postgres for almost 20 years now. The chances of your own aggregation algorithm being more efficient than Postgres's is practically zero.
> Yes, having someone champion a Flat Earth is a good thing. Groupthink is a very real danger.

Just because someone thinks of absurd stuff, doesn't mean this fixes groupthink.

To combat groupthink requires critical analysis, and safety - that is, the group must allow for people who make different (but still logical) points that go against the grain. However, flat earthers do not fall into this category, because they are denying evidence, rather than imagining an alternative theory. Plate tectonics is different, since there's no evidence denying that theory!

I think the populous, in general, really just need to learn the scientific method, and how one discerns truths using evidence (and not fall prey to confirmation bias etc). This requires work, and i feel many do not get taught nor learn themselves.

It is indeed ridiculous to point to professional journalists, at this point in time, as seekers of truth. There are some, but the vast majority of our media has little interest in the truth. Instead they're opinion manipulators that are stuck with a communal point of view, and they drive that view onward regardless of reality. That's just how I feel now. Ten years ago I would have trusted the media a lot more.

I think people are starting to realize that our brains are finite and building a second brain is the way forward given the technology is accessible.

There's also the novelty of it all in which each method or program may do it in a completely new way. This helps us build our own philosophy of the art of note taking.
>You think your successes would have been harder to achieve if you didn't advertise with sex appeal? You don't need to justify yourself for anything but you still sound like you feel the need to do so.

Oh, not at all. It's a gender expression issue, some dysphoria problems, I will try to go into once I muster up the courage. I'm cis but have an...odd backstory. It's definitely counter productive to success in tech after a certain point.

>they probably don't want to make the impression that sex appeal is a necessity for success in tech.

It could be, but at the same time, many young women like being flamboyant, most unlike me outgrow it, but few 17 year olds aspire to the pant-suit. A passable IG "thot" doing tech isn't necessarily the bad influence people think it is. I think a healthy balance of role models will attract a healthy balance of candidates. I think saying "you have to be gender conforming within this narrow spectrum or look like this" is an absolute nightmare for, well basically everyone- men included.
Funny, I associate podcasts with deep, meaningful well researched news coverage. A good example are the Jupiter Broadcasting podcasts [0], I have learned so much. And they actively shy away from knee jerking, meaning that if a news worthy event is still young (and it's just shouting on twitter) they will either report very minimally and let it play out while researching further or not report on it for now. I so appreciate this, it just feels so balanced, I just know that if there is drama, I get a nice explanation about what happened in a coupled of days.

I think it does work. I have some degree of Aphantasia, and i can still build memory palaces. I can't see them, but I can walk through them. It's weird, but it does work.

Just as a quick exercise, try to count the number of windows in your house, with your eyes closed. Even if you have Aphantasia, you can probably still do it, even if you don't see the windows themselves in your mind's eye.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but maybe grinding leetcode for 2 months just made your friend a better programmer in general.

I’ve seen people on here say curious things like “I’ve been a software engineer for N years, but I wasn’t able to get past advent of code day 3”.

At a certain point you have to wonder if, no matter what they tell you, these people are just bad at programming.

That’s not to say they can’t improve, of course, nor is it saying leetcode is the best way to improve. I’ve never done leetcode myself, I can’t speak for it.
What is it that he has to make up for? His guests cover a pretty broad spectrum. This is a genuine question because I haven't actually heard him push anti-vaccine sentiments, unless expressing an opinion is what you define as pushing. Or maybe he's gone beyond expressing opinions and is now seen as some kind of authority on the subject?
Thank you! I'm an English major and have worked very hard at it- still love to hear it though!
I still haven't found any note taking software that has a variety of strikethrough styles. Besides single and double strikethrough, I'd like to see squiggly line and diagonal dashes at least.
I've started letting most notes “expire” (many are on paper that eventually gets forgotten or deliberately thrown away) rather than making any effort to reorganise them over time, but I still make them. I find the process of transcribing makes me think of side issues and other connections that I might otherwise miss, much like explaining something to another person does. Having made the notes and those connections, I'm more likely to remember enough so that I can easily rethink the rest of the details (or find them online if that was the original source) should I need to in future.

> "search don't sort" ... stopped filing ... with a decent search, I saved so much time.

Similarly, what notes I do keep long term are in a bunch of text files which I can search easily or Google Keep (more the former ATM, Keep I use mostly for short term lists & reminders now).

Any chance we can jump to the second part? I'm worried about poor crows smoking.
I've gotten jobs at three international remote companies, all paying above $150k, with no whiteboard and definitively no leet code. Although domain expertise helps, and working in the open (a track record of open source code, blog posts, interactions, communication style).

At current company, we're open to hiring in Europe, and we do a ~4 hr take home assignment, which is then discussed in the meeting. Evaluation is just as much around documentation and showing your thinking, as it is around the code quality - very important qualities for a remote team.
So here’s where we have a problem…

Proving something incorrect is proving proving the negative. That’s not how people engage in good faith argumentation.

I’ll add, a traditional definition of “incorrect information” would primarily focus on factual accuracy over motivation.

Why is it necessary to prove intentionality to prove incorrectness?

All of this is before we acknowledge that you will never accept something as proven false, as proven intentional, or as proven harmful.

Your standard is meaningless because it’s both incoherent and unmeetable.

It’s also characteristic of arguments like this and why the ‘bullshit asymmetry’ concept exists. Trying to meet it is a distraction that simply serves to give your argument credibility because people engage with it in trying (hopelessly) to meet your asymmetric epistemically standards.
> It would be interesting to see if this could work in other environments as well. Also from the perspective that we can teach crows to pick up cigarette butts but we can’t teach people not to throw them on the ground.

Well... you can, by providing enough litter bins that people don't have to hold a cigarette butt or a dog-poo bag for half a kilometer or more. Unfortunately, since litter bins cost money to operate, most cities don't put up enough.

For toilets, it's the same. Public, free-of-charge toilets are an absolute rarity... and politicians whine all the time about people just relieving themselves on the next bush.

They can certainly do that, but then they need to be aware of how it appears. It’s all well and good to imagine a society where you never have to care what people think, but unfortunately neither men nor women live in that kind of society. People will draw conclusions from how you present yourself.
When you look at something like Borat's swimming suit, it is ridiculed specifically because it is sexualized. However, for men that swimming suit generally results in a negative sexual interest, and it's why you hardly find men wearing it. In gay parades you find plenty of men wearing ultra tight shorts, specifically because they sexualize. How can't they? They are specifically designed to highlight the genital areas.

As a second point about breasts, human breasts are unique in the animal kingdom because they are specifically made to signal sexual availability. Generally animals do not have enlarged breasts, even when lactating. In humans the woman breast evolved to enlarge when sexual maturity is reached to signal sexual availability. So saying that boobs are just a body part that men sexualize is also incorrect.
