they neglect the reality of rapid corrective and
evolutionary iteration towards the desired outcome
by each employee

I've been in the industry for 20+ years and have done my fair share of live coding interviews.

Some of them were horrible. There was one where I had to code on a literal whiteboard while a pair of, uh, let's just call them "people with distinctly non-wonderful personalities" critiqued everything. I did horribly.

I've also had many that went well. There was a live coding environment, and they allowed for exactly what you said - correction and iteration. They also collaborated with me to an extent. I felt these sorts of interviews were excellent and I did well. They also gave me a great feeling of what it would be like to work with these folks.

It's perhaps also worth noting that I began a lot of these by saying, "These sorts of interviews make me nervous, but I'll give it my best!" or something similar. And you know what, a good interviewer knows and understands that. They know these kinds of interviews make 99% of the population nervous. So acknowledging that fact helped me to feel at ease.

So, done well, I think they can be great.
We interviewed a guy who had a great resume, seemed like a perfect fit on paper. I was pretty genuinely excited to interview him.

Start by asking him softball questions about his experience, can’t give a straight answer to any of it. Start asking some technical questions and everything we ask he knows little to nothing about. Finally I am getting fed up and I ask him “Why did you put all these things on your resume you know nothing about?”

The guy just deadpan replies “The recruiter told me to”. I don’t know if we worked with that recruiter again, but my boss who was also in the interview was none too pleased.

I wasn't contradicting you, I was adding more specifics.
Do you really think it should be illegal?

Or do you just think that making it illegal would probably show some benefit to the average person's health?
Scaling the weight linearly down to a soup can (1/63) gives you about 5 horsepower. The Model-T had 20 horsepower though, as does your typical riding lawn mower. So you'd have to soup it up a bit more than that.
Not working would not be your current life.
Lutris, PlayOnLinux, Proton, etc. are all really cool. But, if you value your time and security, just keep a dedicated Windows system for gaming. I keep all the things I actually care about or don't want stolen on my Linux system with full drive encryption and I keep a gaming PC that has absolutely nothing I care about on it. The Windows system is never allowed to access my email, credit cards, or anything I care about in any way.

The small price I pay for having to manually type a Steam authentication code from my phone into the gaming PC is worth it to never have to worry about the insane level of insecurity and bugs from the gaming sphere. The amount of RCE in gaming is pretty bad. And, you know, sometimes your friends message you and want to play a game that is new and from a developer nobody can really trust.

Combine that with the fact that the first thing almost every game does is phone home to try and download new executable content and IMO you would be irresponsible to keep your important documents/credentials on a system that is also used for gaming.
Virtualizing a Fan Controller with GNU Radio
That’s infuriating. I don’t know what to tell you except I’m sorry that happened to you.
There are fundamental differences here.

Webassembly is a small stack machine based on an open standard.

It is built bottom up, with a very small core. Additional features like SIMD, garbage collection,posix style system interfaces (WASI), linking, garbage collection,... are built as optional extensions based on real world feedback.

There already are a multitude of different implementations. (the three browsers, the Wasm3 interpreter, wasmtime, Wasmer, ... )

Java, in contrast, was and is a huge runtime , not based on a standard, and has extremely complex semantics, many of them tied to a single language model.

Wasm is already seeing adoption across a wide range of domains.

I do believe the potential for WASM to succeed where Java failed is wide open.
No. Aspartame is one of the most studied and tested substances on the planet and they still haven't linked a single problem to it. At least not one that doesn't relate to sweeteners in general. Nothing else has gone under so much scrutiny (Maybe MSG). Seems like a too good to be true situation where people can't accept its actually this good.
It seems implausible to me that we could engineer a virus that was able to replicate in humans prolifically enough to be spread person to person but not cause any damage.

My understanding is that viruses replicate by hijacking human cells and I don't think those cells survive the ride.

Feeling sick is usually your immune system reacting and killing off the virus. If it didn't react at all, the virus would eventually kill enough cells to kill the host.

The only way to not get sick from a viral infection is for your immune system to react quickly before the virus spreads too much, which would kill the virus before the host had enough of it to start shedding it and become infective to others.
I didn't see any graphs in units of hp or ft-lbs. Do you have a link?
Some peoples opinion of Flatpak has been heavily warped by websites like FlatKill.org
I don’t think soldiers have any kind of special reputation, at least among non southern urbanites. They do a job that they get paid for, some of them are good, a few are bad, etc… there is a swath of the country that holds that in high regard, especially in the south and in rural areas, but that isn’t normative in all areas.

When the old DDP expires, you buy more. If it lasted longer, you would not buy more. Though it sure causes destress on their best customers. Quite the dilemma.
What compulsion? The desire to be made for life?
Nice work.

The only one comment to add is

Amazon has an Amazon SimpleDB.

So different name might be before for your branding.
I am - thank you for noticing.
I use Chrome and AdBlock plus on my laptop, and I'd forgotten that YouTube even has advertising. I suggest you do the same.
I think so, this meta study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28938797/ from 2017 seems to suggest that there are some possible negative effects and points out that most studies use animal models. Animal models are not conclusive, so without quality human studies I would say the "jury is still out"
Differences between each other? IIUC the colony forms from a few individuals cloning itself over and over?

If that's the case then old colony would have more differences between the individuals than a new colony.
> And undetectable === untransmittable. Just in case people here didn't know.

In no way saying this is not a good thing, but do we know if this can be sustained for the whole lifetime?

Or is it that 20, 30 years later, as people get older the person eventually gets AIDS?
But a virus can't replicate itself. It has to hijack (and kill) the hosts cells in order to replicate.
Incidentally, Minecraft Java has always had horrible performance, to the point where it was rewritten in C++.

There are two versions of Minecraft now.

The main reason Minecraft Java is still alive is the hackability and the resulting extensive mod ecosystem.
We probably have similar models. Honestly it is faster than some of the smart tv’s I have and the remote isn’t too shabby at all.

We got the TV mainly because the picture quality was much better than the others they had at Costco.

That's not too far off if you go by volume instead? Perhaps other bits of the car can be more efficient than the model T to make up for it.
I already live in this world. I do some work for other people for a few hours a day, and in exchange I have housing, food, clothing, healthcare, etc.

Oh, were these things supposed to materialize for me for free with no effort on my part? Well, I suppose there's always prison, but I'd rather not.
I use a gaming console (PS4) for similar reasons.
I mean -- in a similar way to Apple, it's how they want you to see their brand. So no guarantees but it would be shortsighted of them to sell the info somehow. Definitely possible but I'm optimistic that they wouldn't.
This is already a solved problem, as the accelerator peddle in an electric vehicle isn't a simple on / off switch, it's connected to a computer that talks to an electronic speed controller, thereby providing drive-train safe power application.

The same sorts of governing functions are computer managed in an ICE powered vehicle too.
ok so based off your first three paragraphs what could justify all these mainstream car makers building motors that weigh 2.5X, use so so so much more material? why is Koenigsegg alone able to achieve such material efficiency, when it seems like we should be so pushed to push weight/material usage down down down? what justified such a high power density motor being so expensive?
> said "for Delta".

You said, well, exactly what I quoted, which was that variant-specific vaccines for Delta and Omicron were tried, found less effective than the the existing vaccines, and abandoned. That is false.

> I mentioned the upcoming Omicron vaccine too.

No, you said that after abandoning Delta/Omicron variant-specific vaccines, “they” decided to work on mixed Omicron/Alpha boosters. That is also false. Novavax is planning to trial Omicron-specific vaccine. Pfizer is trialing Omicron specific vaccines, both as sole vaccines and as boosters after existing vaccines. Moderna is, I think, working on an Omicron-specific booster-only (after existing vaccines) approach.
No

In contrast, webgpu Webassembly bindings have the potential to enable fast ML code execution everywhere. Both for browser and native use cases.

By the same token if you ignore all of the good parts about having a credit card, “in the end, unless your credit card can be thrown away, credit card debt is a negative.” There's a valid perspective for this but it's not a great one.

It's not just that it permits something now or earlier, but in shipping something now or earlier it can also increase the quality of what you are shipping. Ward saw it as the center of his preferred style of coordinated software development, XP. Sort of the old Daoist idea that the wheel needs the hole at its center, the negative enables the positive.
I like the new reddit design. More whitespace, cleaner, and opening threads just opens them on top of the list of threads. But I also only have very performant machines with tons of memory and snappy processors on a fast internet connection. So I might be singing a different tune if that were not the case.
I was watching lost in space and one of those episodes had an entire subplot about Oreos. It was so blatant it ruined that episode.
The inability to lock these people up is frustrating, most of us aren’t blaming the police for that. Heck, it might not even be the DA’s decision (in Seattle, unlike SF, even if the DA wants to prosecute, it can be jammed up at the county level), and often it’s just a resource issue (too many low level property offenses, not enough lawyers and judges, or jail space). We need to be really in in tough on crime to fix those issues, and we still aren’t really. Policing is just one part of that, and right now is a horrible time to hire more police (like it is for hiring in other jobs ATM).
Does this randomly choose random peers based on hashing, or will it try using some latency metric too? It would be nice if there were protocol docs.
> aren't there a couple of core features/structures all languages have?

The answer is 'no', especially in the sense that there's a relatively finite set of possible grammars that a putative natural language could be compared against. In terms of basic parts of speech, I believe that every language does have something that you can describe as a noun, but that's more or less the only "universal" part of speech (there are some languages that essentially don't have verbs--you "do a look" rather than "see", e.g.).

The more serious problem, I think, is that the corpus of Linear A is simply too tiny to do any serious study, and I don't know how well the written corpus is at actually reflecting problems like segmenting text into words or morphemes. In essence, the available evidence is so paltry that you could justify just about any grammatical hypothesis, I suspect.

If I'm understanding Chomskyian linguistics correctly (that's a really big if), there was originally thought to be an inherent "language organ" that strongly controlled grammar. But over time, and as linguistics documented more languages, the things that are universal in grammars in this subdiscipline has essentially been reduced to 'merge', which is an abstract concept that I'm pretty sure I don't understand.
Implementing TD-Gammon with Keras
That's a fair concern. I just went to sign up now (apparently my invite was ready but the app hadn't notified me yet), and there's a section that promises their privacy protections will not be weakened by an acquisition:

> We will not allow an ownership change to weaken these privacy guarantees.
DuckDuckGo (officially Duck Duck Go, Inc.) is a privately held, independent company, and has been since its founding in 2008. If we are ever acquired by another organization, or if another organization purchases this service, we will email you with details. However, we will not proceed with any deal that weakens these Privacy Guarantees.

As a (former) lawyer, I'd say that this provision is something I've considered necessary for a business to make a credible promise not to sell out at a later date. I have never seen such a provision before, and it makes me feel more confident that they've thought this stuff through and are willing to be held to their promises.
Yep, that you didn’t need to live in a state of hoping you’d be “made for life”
RF Signal Generator
So often I see engineers get sucked into arguing something based on a buzzword that they either believe the system they are building needs to conform to, they think other people (outside the company) care about, or because it agrees with their pre-conceived design notions.

Nuking words interrupts this, I often ban the words "scalable", "Automated", "platform", and "system". It forces the conversation back to specifics such as "Ability to handle X requests per second supporting Y users", "Process requires x, y, z steps rather than a,b,c steps", "service supports use cases A, B, C"
I wonder if there's a group of people who are uniquely motivated to prove, or convince, that COVID is not a lab leak...

It's been pointed out that a couple decades ago, we had this notion "conflict of interest": that someone too close to an issue is a poor choice to report on that issue, because everyone is influenced by their own self-interest. But now we have turned that idea completely on its head! We demand to hear only the opinions of "the experts"; who are in fact the same people who we used to describe as having a conflict of interest!

>So only comedians and animated TV shows are allowed to be offensive?

I heard some comedians say that they don't perform in Canada because of the same type of anti-free-speech laws. Maybe some Canadians can chime in but there are cases of comedians getting charged with hate speech laws.
> the two are as correlated as anything we can expect in science

I will double down and die on this hill. You cannot compare your confidence in this theory to the fundamental physical laws.
If you’re going to troll on Twitter as a UK citizen, please do us all a favor and suffix all your tweets with “in RuneScape” so that we can laugh when you go to jail for suggesting offensive beliefs in a virtual fantasy world.
Can you provide a source or explain how you came to the conclusion that it is one of the most studied substances on the planet?

Personally I'm not worried about aspartame. I consume it in small amounts and am not overly concerned, but this statement goes beyond the facts I'm aware of.

Update: I found a source, the FDA says that: https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/additional...

I had heard that about. Msg, but not aspartame. Til!
Perhaps you should reconsider the way you do them? Even by randomness I consider it virtually impossible not to have one meaningful discission after thousands of discissions.
For me 1x1 are a very important part of running operations and mitigating churn but took me years to optimize them.
>why can't they be updated to add support for GET with request bodies?

One thing I can think of: there some optimization that would cause performance degradation for 99% of GET requests.
Why not? Or is this sarcasm?

California decided itself it wants be in a union with other states and accepted the conditions which enabled that union. I think it should be their right to secede from such a union if it is not in their interest anymore. I think you are also forgetting CA is also huge in agriculture and will certainly subsidize its farms even if it gets independent.
It's not just that, it is also a prefix manager, which this is competing with.
One can find RaPi boards as "kits" in stock at several locations.
(still with limited quantities).
Or, as pick-up in store only such as at Microcenter.

So this isn't a true measure of things.

Yeah, after seeing game studios being bought for 64B dollars, how many HSVs could that cure?
So now we've got a button that you can never rely on being there at all.

This is stupid. It's a car and you need controls accessible in an instant, not hidden behind a login page and captcha.
For a lot of things there are portability libraries that bridge vendor extensions between implementations. So, in practice, you can use features that aren't part of the ANSI standard (threads, sockets, ffi) without tying yourself to a single implementation. Also, FFI is pretty trivial in most implementations.
Fastmail has a "masked email" feature, which will forward emails sent to (potentially temporary) email addresses to your regular email account.

So will SpamGourmet[2].

Of course the problem with all these services is that you're giving yet another third party access to your communication and giving up your privacy to them.

They are all, as far as I know, completely unaccountable regarding what they do with the information they get from your private communication.

No matter what they say in their privacy policies, press releases, or PR, there's no way (as far as I know) to reliably verify any of their claims.

That said, I'd still rather deal with a company which at least claims to respect privacy rather than one that (like Facebook or Google) either spit on it or make money off tracking me and datamining everything they can about me.

No it is not. The motivation and choice belong to some person, the grammatical "second person" refers to you especially and no one else. Sure in some situations there is no one else who motivation and choice could be attributed to, but in many there are. Anyway this is about a rhetoric trick: avoid attribution to the person you are addressing to reduce the chance of them going defensive, denying responsibility, trying to wiggle out of blame, and instead answer the actual question. In a more general sense avoiding such details increases focus.
It's funny but I've always payed for the NYT crossword subscription even though I tend to only pay for the NYT on the "trial" rate which I think is like $1 a week. I enjoy doing the crossword that much. I like doing the wordle too and would miss it. My day is mostly work so I really enjoy a game that challenges me and helps me get my brain going but also ends so there is no more playing. Crosswords and wordle are great in that regard. Could the NYT be on to something in gaming? I don't know that area but would be keen to know what gaming professionals think.

Aspertame is a bit of acquired taste, tho it would not surprise me if some people can't acquire the taste for it
Maybe. But who cares? It's an open source project, if someone wants to maintain support for older software, good for them. If people don't like it they can fork and move on (and they have).

I don't understand the complaints and attacks in the github comments. It seems bizarre and egotistical to me to yell at a stranger who is providing you their work for free because you don't agree with their specific use case.
Much of the blame goes to the students as was touched on in this, as plenty of students just want to pass the course and are not concerned with learning anything. I was one of them. There were quite a few courses in university where I didn't even crack the textbook and instead just drilled the past 5 years of questions asked.

For example, our electromagnetics course graded based on problem sets. I didn't crack the textbook nor did I go to class, but rather just drilled the past problem sets. I had no idea what the "w" looking thing was by the end of it. I got a B in this course and I didn't genuinely know anything beyond what to do when faced with a certain question pattern.

I got a B in a stereotypically difficult course without knowing what what some of the variables were even named.
No, you don't do it on random. Let's say you are looking at basketball game X vs. Y.

Bookmaker A is giving odds X win 2.5 and Y win 1.33

Bookmaker B is giving odds X win 1.55 and Y win 2.10

What you do is bet on X in A and on Y in B. Let's say that you invest $2000 ($1000 in each bookie). If X wins, you loose $1000 on Y, but you win $2500 from X. Total profit = $500. If Y wins, you loose $1000 on X, but you win $2100 on Y with net profit of $100.
I would imagine it's to stir a bit of an emotional response. Captain Tom is revered by plenty in the UK so by prefixing your title with his name you're likely to get more click-throughs.

It keeps surprising me that “you Americans” are still not using the SI system. As an European, it feels like I am reading an article from 1830, with hp instead of kW and lb-ft instead of Nm.
