Sowork | Work from anywhere (Metaverse) | Full-time | http://www.sowork.com; https://sophya.notion.site/sophya/Working-at-SoWork-855ad44d...

We're on a mission to build the best f*cking work environment of all time. And it's in the cloud, obv. Teammates across the world (New Zealand -> Hawaii) so you can be sure nobody will ever force you back to the office. If you worked here, you'd never (want to) leave.

Engineering team (13+) includes:

-Game Engineers (who work on video game like environments, without the insane torment of many in the gaming industry),

-Full stack engineers, who do feature development for our metaverse for work, or scale our cloud infrastructure,

-DevOps / QA engineers, who are obsessed with code cleanliness and developer empathy

Well funded (https://techcrunch.com/2021/10/12/sowork-just-convinced-inve...), still early stage opportunity in a very fast moving space.

Looking to add Engineering Managers, Data Engineer, QA Engineer & Full stack & Rust (Game Engine) devs always.

I’m so grateful for our two - we just leave out big bowls of dry food, they eat a bit here and there, never excessively, and both are lean and happy. I figured it was because they were secure that there would always be more food - and it seems to be the case, as I recommended to a friend who was new to cats that they do the same, and their guys behave likewise.
As others point out, promotional pushes are allowed on iOS.

A site can refuse to give you content if you don't allow push notifications but in practice that doesn't happen because the incentive of the site is to have more traffic. Android has had this capability for an eon and I have never experienced a site try to force you to accept push notifications.

I have also never observed a site try to use push notifications as a "verification" method. Do you have an example of this in the wild?

And you can always control your allowance of push notifications after the fact, either at the moment you receive the offending notification or from the site settings. Android specifically has a fantastic way to do this without even leaving your notification area. Not sure how Apple's system works in that regard.
It's always interesting to me, the mental gymnastics people will do to convince themselves that they're not doing something they believe to be morally wrong. Like, if your intent is to mislead, what do you care if you're technically telling the truth?
This might maybe be because a lot of effort is now poured on mid to end of life care, with the improving life expectancy? So the science behind pushing along a decaying body gets better?
Even with ublock I'll stumble into a google ad for when I search for something like a restaurant or hotel
Wages are nowhere to be found. Interesting.

> Human Resources professionals are always looking for ways to improve employee satisfaction in the workplace.

This is highly debatable. HR goal is to keep the machine working while protecting the company from their own employees, neither of which is necessarily linked to "employee satisfaction".
There aren't many/any others from what I can see, at least not to GCore's scale. GCore has a CDN, ddos protection, and many points of presence. Probably the best solution unless you want to build and maintain your own servers.
Cruise CEO here.

Our strategy has been to solve the challenges needed to operate driverless robotaxis on a well-equipped vehicle, then aggressively drive the cost down. Many OEMs are doing this in reverse order. They're trying to squeeze orders of magnitude of performance gains out of really low-cost hardware. Today it's unclear what strategy will win.

In a few years our next generation of low-cost compute and sensing lands in these vehicles and our service area will be large enough that you forget there is even a geofence. If OEMs have still not managed to get the necessary performance gains to go fully driverless, we'll know what move was the right one.

We shared several details on how our system works and our future plans here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkK2JX1iHuzz7W8z3roCZ...
People own cars for convenience. In the US public transit is impossible. A self driving service can be as convenient or even more convenient compared to owning a car. (No registration, oil change, insurance, fueling, parking, maintenance chores) I’m a car guy and I see the appeal.

It's an important consideration, and one that I've thought about but really lack any ability to gather data on. I built this originally to meet the needs of my brother's business and his customers.

It has proved useful for him and his customers, and has expanded beyond that, but I don't really know how much to pursue building it further based off risks like this.
I'll believe it when it actually happens. I signed up for Waymo in SF last year and still haven't gotten any updates for that.
Agreed, and these roadways are all over the country. It's a pretty widely known fact that the safest speed is the natural flow of traffic, but municipalities all over the country are much more inclined to listen to the vocal minority over traffic engineers. Not a lot of "trust the science" going on there.

Racism and segregation for starters, there were also huge immigration hurdles for many artists from the Caribbean islands, many artists had health care related problems on the islands, tropical storms, economic depressions, governmental corruption, music equipment and resources were very expensive (because they had to be imported), and financing and funding for everything is a challenge citing that no other major music or film industry was located anywhere near to the islands (NY, California, England, etc.).

This is why many labels in the past would simply get their existing artists to "hijack" reggae themes into their music, because the islands were isolated geographically from public awareness in the early days.
This is why i've been a fully self-driving skeptic in the last few years (initially was not), it's that our driving system is inherently broken.

Fully rule-following will create unsafe situations merely because humans expect a certain amount of rule breaking. The person "at-fault" will be he human, but politically that will be tough when humans are mad at machine for "acting weird by following the rules." I fear that our inherent contradictions for rule-following in the road will make it impossible for ML, both to understand how to behave, and to behave predictably to humans.

This is why I'm much more bullish on self-driving-similar vehicles, which look and behave differently, like how buses and trolleys behave differently in the road and we have different expectations from them.

Although I tend to agree with you, unfortunately this is not gonna happen.

With new programming languages popping up everywhere, they need to make python attractive for developers, otherwise developers will migrate to other languages.

Since asyncio we already have two languages, because synchronous python is one beast, and asynchronous python is a totally different beast. If you put type hints on top of that, it is really difficult to call python python.
I'm sorry to hear that, but it's not exactly surprising and is actually a good thing from a security perspective. It's been proven again and again that account recovery processes are ripe for social engineering attacks.

The answer is to make sure you have backups enabled for any accounts where you setup MFA. For example with your Google account you can setup single use codes for account recovery purposes. Write these down and store them somewhere safe.

The VM could have its own TCP/IP stack, possibly with a SLIRP layer for translation of connections to the outside. Internet connectivity can be done by limiting it to AJAX, or forwarding the packets to a proxy (something like http://artemyankov.com/tcp-client-for-browsers/), or including a Tor client that connects to a Tor bridge, etc.
That really depends on the service. If it's a messaging app, then I'm not exactly going to poll a service until a new message arrives. Or any other type of app that I'm not checking if there's no updates.
Also PiHole is a great tool. I suggest it it you Walt a very good ads shield :)
Just another idea popped. What if your code doesn't include any bitstream that contains "Starbucks" but has some ML driven mechanism of passively listening to Wifis around the city, noting them and using those names dynamically? Since Starbucks McDonalds etc would (probably) be the highest quantity of signals found your code will be mimicking those names without having a single bit in the code.

What would be the legality of that (as long as the intention is not to attack the public)?
I don't buy that using a default demo sample from an electronic keyboard could ever count as cultural appropriation. Even in the most extreme case, the 'rock' sample in question that Casio offered up would ostensibly trace its roots to afro-caribbean origins anyway.
I don't know, maybe I got used to it real quick. When the new (and better :P) coke zero came out people didn't shut up about it, so would be strange if they changed pepsi and almost nobody noticed. But I did have that happen with beer though, a beer I liked started tasting real bad, then I had it for the first time in 10 years or more last summer and it was good again. Think tastebuds works in mysterious ways and changes a lot more than we think.

DraCo – The Amiga ‘Clone’
It depends on the definition of "functioning".

If you'd like to access a server from another tab / iframe of the same browser, that's almost possible already, just some UX work would be required.

If you'd like users of the same page (or a separate specialized page) to connect, that could be possible with WebRTC.

If you'd like arbitrary hosts to connect, that would require a server side proxy, there is no client-side only solution that I can see,
SL2 sampled it in this classic dance track from the 90’s

I had no idea until now where the sample came from.
Two years ago I quit my job, then covid kicked off and I was out of work for 6 months.

During that time I was relying on recruiters to hunt down leads for me.

Nothing was coming up! They kept trying to feed me full-stack and front-end roles, and I kept saying no thank you.

Then, I just started sending out my own resumes. And I instantly got more callbacks in the MONTHS I spent with recruiters.

I have a few suspicions:

1. The recruiters present themselves as having a "relationship" with companies, but they actually don't, they are just bullshitting you.

2. The jobs people actually want end up getting filled, so if you end up with a recruiter, you are going to be ending up with bottom-tier opportunities.
First step to meeting interesting people is to become interesting yourself. I know this is the crux of the post, but it's true.

Become really good at something, make some younger party friends. Meet people through venues not designed around meeting people. Sports e.g. .

> "corrupted by personal bias and toxicity as to be utterly useless" may not be that able / focused on just moving forward on stuff.

It's the same recycled logic of people who want to return to the times of being able to say whatever they want, and people who are offended just "need to move on".

This kind of thinking is why homophobia/misogyny/racism is still so prevalent in tech. Dog whistles like "real tech people" or "super high need" or "people that just can't move on".

It's a lot more convenient and dismissive to associate it with some kind of lack of performance. "Oh they should just focus on the code, thank god for all the coders who never want to attend meetings and just code..."

I know you don't like my "style", but I'm afraid most organized software development is starting to become more aware of the need to be empathetic and accepting of the human element, not less, and just "getting over it and coding" isn't an acceptable answer anymore.
I very much doubt this is effective against ICBMs. It'll be a ground-based system. ICBMs are just too far away, too much air in between. It's not a question of technology. It simply cannot be done from the ground.
> Additionally, dollar-pegged stablecoins backed by adequately safe and liquid collateral can potentially serve as a digital safe haven currency during periods of crypto market distress.

That's the Federal Reserve being themselves. Buy US dollars, use US dollars as the global currency. It makes a lot of sense for the USA, not necessarily for the rest of the world. But the Federal Reserve represents it's country interest, so it makes sense.

SOCKS5 does not encrypt traffic, so if you put in a public / internet SOCKS5 server address that won't prevent snooping.

If you have a spare Raspberry Pi (perhaps running PiHole / AdGuard as well which takes care of DNS security and ad-blocking on top), or another server running you can spin up a Docker (or VM/or baremetal) with an OpenVPN / WireGuard client and a SOCKS5 proxy.

For example, in my setup I use the "dperson/openvpn-client" and "serjs/go-socks5-proxy" docker images (set the socks5 container to use the network of the vpn client, and expose the socks5 port out of the vpn container). You should explore whatever option works best for your home and VPN setups.
I'm not really an expert on anything crypto, but I very much like the idea of stablecoins as a realistic bridge between the traditional financial system and cryptocurrency technologies.
Honestly I think it's both understandable and sad how aggressive people have gotten about trying to get organizations to "prove" they're adequately backing their stablecoins with cash reserves. It feels like a fundamental misunderstanding that arises from layperson terms vs. legal/accounting terms.

Attestations vs. audits, what purpose each one serves in an accounting sense, and why an organization would opt for one over another; these are conversations I don't see being had, but conversations that, I think, would clear a lot of the frustration and confusion up, on the part of the skeptics.
And a PR nightmare. Shoot a missile from a school or a hospital, then afterwards the newspaper articles write themselves when the automated system retaliates. Radar data showing it was a missile launch site will always lose to pictures of mothers holding dead children.

Counter battery is also of questionable effectiveness when most launch sites are used only once.
As I understand it, the OP is trying to keep all non-GPS location sources disabled.

I switched to Apple Maps a couple years ago and was also pleasantly surprised how much it has improved.

In the browser, you can effectively get Apple Maps through DuckDuckGo, as their map service is built on it. There is no meaningful way to get Apple Maps navigation on Android though, and I predict it will stay that way unless Apple decides to turn it into a paid service or changes their stance on selling user data.

Popular, because it's unimportant.

This doesn't actually change the Electoral College. It clarifies some of the technical points of the electoral vote counting. It closes some loopholes that could be exploited, and were recently considered, to basically throw out any result a governor doesn't like.

It's popular only because it doesn't do anything that people didn't already assume to be the case. And as TFA suggests, it's popular only because it can suggest that something is being done, precisely at a time when more serious voting issues can't be fixed.

Even so... I'd give even odds that it doesn't pass. The filibuster is still in place, and there are those in Congress who still would like to use the loopholes if the opportunity arises.
I don't like this being forced on you, but who the hell cares about wifi/bt SSID sniffing? What's so bad about collecting it?

To be honest I don't find that sort of claim overly deceptive. % of infected that are vaccinated is an important metric because it helps describe the further reduction in infection that is possible through further vaccination. That's an obviously different metric than infection rate, and should be understood as such. The root problem is widespread statistical illiteracy.

I wish OsmAnd all the best, but ever since the app was created, its map rendering performance has been stuck in the 2010s, no matter how much faster our devices have gotten since then.

There is justification for it for sure (see https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/issues?q=is%3Aissue+slow... for a few), and I love OSM out of principle, but as a product, it will remain my last resort until the user experience is tolerable.
