It doesn’t include 401k, medical

Ahh interesting, I assumed it included things like bonuses and equity, but am surprised to learn 401k contributions are not considered TC. Is this the case even for matched contributions made by the employer?

Meaning if I contribute x (money I was compensated already as a portion of salary), and employer contributes %/x (money the company effectively "gives" me), is that percentage not considered part of the "TC" terminology? OR am I exhibiting an unfortunate misunderstanding of 401k matches?
The majority of people world wide are, by that definition, idiots.
Liberals will always control culture absent government censorship. The strong correlation between openness to new experience and liberal political views is all that's needed to figure that out.

(Using liberal in the American sense here)

The forefront of culture is what's new and exciting. You have to actually be willing to try it out though. It's inherently not conservative.

Edit: the sibling's post about ad dollars is a fantastic point as well.
> I also wouldn’t expect someone to be a “Senior” after graduating (even with a PhD, and even if it were in Computer Science or a closely related field) in ~2 years either.

I suppose it depends on your org. Where I work "senior" is the second level up, where the first level is given to new hires fresh out of college (mostly master's, some bachelor's). If someone comes in with a PhD in a related field -- though perhaps not a completely unrelated one like music composition -- I'd be surprised for them not be a senior or even a lead (the third level up). The researcher positions that require a PhD tend to be advertised as leads in my experience.

I was originally hired as a senior data scientist although I had minimal relevant work experience, but I had worked in an arguably related field (mostly ETL) for 5 years after bailing out of a PhD program (all but dissertation in economics).

GOOG pay + benefits > AMZN. No on-call at GOOG too which is nice and I get to work for Google maps which is like my favorite software application as I use it every time I drive.

I'd consider going back for a fully remote job with like a 35% pay bump though. Although if I'm just going for the money, I'd probably switch to one of the trading firms that have been hounding me. Got one email recently for a fully remote job with compensation wide open (anywhere from 275k-650k+).
> and roguelikes will bring you back to the beginning

I think the best roguelikes are the ones who let you fail and then proceed limping. Or maybe the best games in general, since I'm not sure if Rimworld counts as a roguelike. Either way, to start from the beginning in a good roguelike means to have made a chain of bad decisions.
Everyone moved to containerize their code and then security organizations in corporations have been putting the brakes on that and pushing for virtualization layer for additional isolation in multi tenant environments. Since every container ends up being a virtual machine anyways, the only way to slim down is unikernel.

We needed to work through the FINRA BD and SEC ATS-N registration process, and the latter is a requirement that went into effect well after we got started on OneChronos. We're pleased with how both went, and we chose US equities as a beachhead precisely because of how sophisticated the regulatory framework is. That said, it's quite the process, both time and resource-wise. We'll have to work through similar processes to pursue other asset classes and geographies. Doing so is core to our mission of making portfolio level transactions frictionless cross-asset and cross geography.

You can read our ATS-N here: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1692652/000169265220...

There are participants. Question of how you define “middle” and in between whom.

When you pay the deliveryperson, florist, kid who shoveled your driveway in cash, there are zero participants between you and that person.

How you got that cash depends on a physical supply chain. Generally, going to an ATM is pretty easy.

Our payment system is currently the worst of both: only electrons and magnetic regions, but lots of them in the way siphoning off their cut.

Yep. I think this is how it works.

Kernel becomes a library the application uses instead of something that jumps over the CPU context. Application runs as root with the rump kernel or unikernel liked in. Only portions of kernel actually used need to be present. System calls become function calls. Multitasking support provided by a threading library. You shouldn't run multiple applications in a unikernel.

If you have a number of servers running a hypervisor as a base OS, and your applications on its VMs are network-centric like web servers, load balancers, database services, or microservices, and you don't really use the user-level security of a traditional OS, this can enhance performance by eliminating the user-kernel CPU context switch and consume less RAM.

But you're literally admitting that legos aren't what they used to be. My exposure to legos was very similar to yours. Yes, there are more variety of pieces now, and it can be both a blessing and a curse, depending on what angle you squint at it from.

In my experience, old legos had a far more rigid feeling: idiomatically, sets relied heavily on the verticality of system (i.e. usage of the traditional tall or short bricks). Nowadays, sets come with a huge variety of 1x1 and 1x2 pieces with sideways elements, and a good portion of pieces are of the beam variety (i.e. pieces that require connectors to be put together[0], commonly found in mindstorm sets)

So with a modern mindstorms set, you can build some really elaborate things with high degrees of motion, in a way that is intended by Lego, but conversely, the traditional blocks look dull in comparison. I was building some random robots w/ my kids a while back, and the way we approached the bricks was fairly different. They largely build following the system as intended. My childhood techniques, by contrast, are distinctly "illegal" (according to what Lego considers valid/stable brick arrangements in official sets). For example, this[1] is a technique to achieve a movable joint that I used to chain together to create things like arms, animal tails, etc.

The entertainment environment for kids has also changed, through no fault of Lego itself. Despite the availability of high range of motion components, there are so many other ways for kids to entertain themselves nowadays that it would just never occur to them to exploit Legos in unintended ways the way I did.

Nothing makes me feel more confident than leaving the house in my favorite jacket.
I believe mailbox.org let's you do the same (upload a private key with which all unencrypted mail will be encrypted). And they let you use it with your own domain.

I think it's a great feature that more hosts should offer. Actual deniability, what's not to love?
When I've recruited people somewhere within their multi-year vesting schedule, I've found that they absolutely hate the "golden handcuffs." It leads them to resent their employer and ultimately motivates them to leave.

Delayed vesting is a terrible practice. Perhaps we'll see more companies offer immediate vesting of equity comp as a way to compete for talent. This is what Netflix does.
This is an interesting point. Do you the total rounds/average expect time to complete the loop.

I agree if I'm looking and someone makes the interview process quick that interest will make me more likely to join.

From this title I was expecting this to be poor performance when the larger number of cores were contending over a resource, but it seems its contention over the limited e-cores.

It sounds like if you set low QoS your process will only run on e-cores, is that correct? If so then "obviously" the M1 Pro/Max would be slower, but I don't think this is an obvious consequence from the end user's point of view. Don't get me wrong it's the logical consequence of the SoC configuration and scheduler rules, and I'm not even sure if its the "wrong" choice from a battery life PoV (I'm curious whether it results in lower battery use per-task)
Who are the liberal owners of CNN? I thought they were all just trying to make money.

Tech has become so intertwined with politics, it's hard to make a tech forum completely 100% politics free.

Would be nice if it was still libertarian 90s silicon valley (where politics matters a lot less, because you don't want to control anything), but that time is gone.

You'll find better answers than I can give based on searching here and searching "Degoogle". I've just rapidly said goodbye out of frustration and am using suboptimal stuff while I work it out.

Re: Google Photos, I actually would have paid Google for extra photo storage as their app is, of course, good. I would have paid out of convenience. But they started demanding I send them my passport and utility bills before I could do that. I understand they likely have their policies and reasons, but can you believe that? I have to send them my passport and data just for the honour of paying them? Straw that broke the camels back.

I already have a Prime account so I just let Amazon scoop up my photos until I find a better alternative. It's actually not bad (has "group by face" and stuff, but not as clean as Google - but maybe I've not delved into it enough). To me, same big tech nonsense, but at least Amazon actually support the customer (support is good vs non-existent at Google) and they let me pay them without requiring my dental records.

I'm late to replying but since you are a Scaleway Object Storage, I am right on the timeline of the versions of it?
I actually just found out that you could force a resync on the podcasts app on macos by hitting CMD + R and that has solved some of the issues I have where I just wait around for new episodes to sync (pull down for refresh is a nightmare with a trackpad on a mac laptop). But still, it's slow (can take 10-20 seconds for a podcast to begin playing), buggy (can take a full minute for the title to appear in the display after it has already started-- so you cannot skip the first 30 seconds of ads), or just broken (havent started the app in a while? guess I will crash trying to sync all those episodes you missed). Really infuriating.
Yes, it has been debunked. They got the causal arrow around the wrong way.

It turns out that kids who are in stable situations with trustworthy adults around them, tend to trust adults more when they say “wait 5 minutes and I’ll give you more”, and that kids in bad situations don’t trust adults. Turns out being in a bad situation as a kid does have a long term effect on your life.

Nothing to do with the ability of people delay gratification.
why have parties at all? think about who the party serves and to what ends. is it for the people? no. it's for the politically ambitious to more easily coalesce power. parties are an indirection the populace doesn't need. it's something that makes campaigning easier and more centralized. centralization of power, whether in companies or in governments, is never for the betterment of the population, despite all the contrary rhetoric.

I don't think it will ever happen. That being said, I have been wanting to move to Outlook.com, but I have a custom domain email. Currently it's allowed in Gmail because it's using an external smtp server from Mailgun. But in order to add/accept a custom domain in Outlook you have to have your domain with GoDaddy (if you aren't O365) which I simply refuse to do.

sorry, but it seems you're an extreme outlier. disabled but not in a way the government recognizes, unable to use public transport (or e-/bikes) but able to operate cars. the problem here is that you don't seem to fall into any exempt category, so accommodating you would mean going back to the fully car centric city.

in my experience most of those people who would benefit from reducing car traffic and boosting alternate forms would be the disabled, elderly or kids and the poor.

additionally, riding bikes (even e-bikes) is not just for the healthy, it improves health. this might be of scant comfort for those who area already crippled by decades of dependence on cars, but i see it as an investment in the health of future generations. cycling for the "less than 50" is a far too low a number, there are plenty of 50 plus riders who leave me in the dust. many of the ladies i see riding around look like 70+.

When correctly implemented, the process you’re waiting on will have its priority boosted appropriately.

The vast majority of employers will not sponsor you for a H1B, esp. if you don't currently work for them.
If you don't already have them: noise cancelling headphones. If you like earbuds, the AirPods Pro are great. For sitting at a desk, over-ear headphones are extremely comfortable and have enough battery life to go all day. You can get a refurbished pair of Bose QC35 II's for $259.
The application code is compiled along with kernel code so you can think of unikernels as a single-process VM, there's nothing else running other than the application so it boots straight to `main()`. Unikraft just facilitates the runtime of the application to be able to run as a VM or on baremetal. There's no shell, so you can't instantiate another program from disk. If the application wishes to read and write from an attached storage, it can, but it can't start another process if it's reading application code to-be-executed. Starting another process is a bit tricker since there is no `fork()` to execute another process. Interesting work is being done to enable multi-threading across cores via SMP[0] however and to provide fork like ability but with regard to the application's logic[1] but not in a wider general multi-processing environment. I hope this clarifies things.

Not true that there were only a few slave owners. https://socialequity.duke.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/8.1...
I'd also recommend some protein bars. They usually have a decent ratio of calories to protein to fiber
Not entirely true. If you were one of the unfortunate slaves to be sent to work in the mines, it was basically a death sentence. Also, the Romans had 3 different large scale slave rebellions (called the Servile wars of which Spartacus was among them) I'm imagining that there was a very small minority of the slave population could earn enough money to purchase their freedom.
Toxic positivity and toxic negativity are grating to some, myself included.

The issue is that soft, squishy not-STEM "sciences" aren't all that evidence-based or experimentally-verifiable. That doesn't make them completely useless, it makes them prone to fungible, inconsistent guidelines rather than hypotheses, theories, or laws.
I read Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four in high-school, and I'd say it had a pretty profound impact on me.

On the "business side", I'd say Steve Blank's The Four Steps to the Epiphany also had a marked impact on my thinking.

The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins also helped reform my world-view in certain areas. Specifically it helped dispel any lingering credibility that I might have assigned to the "irreducible complexity" argument.

Another would be Report from Engine Co 82 by Dennis Smith. That book (along with watching Emergency! on TV) as a kid had a direct impact in terms of steering me towards the fire service, where I eventually served 10+ years as volunteer firefighter with three different departments in NC.

As an alternative there's always Matt Levine's "Certificate of Dumb Investment" proposal: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2018-09-24/earnin...

1. Anyone can invest all they want in a diversified portfolio of approved investments (non-penny-stock public companies, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds with modest fees, insured bank accounts, etc.).

2. Anyone can also invest in any other dumb investment; you just have to go to the local office of the SEC and get a Certificate of Dumb Investment. (Anyone who sells dumb non-approved investments without requiring this certificate from buyers goes to prison.)

3. To get that certificate, you sign a form. The form is one page with a lot of white space. It says in very large letters: “I want to buy a dumb investment. I understand that the person selling it will almost certainly steal all my money, and that I would almost certainly be better off just buying index funds, but I want to do this dumb thing anyway. I agree that I will never, under any circumstances, complain to anyone when this investment inevitably goes wrong. I understand that violating this agreement is a felony.”

4. Then you take the form to an SEC employee, who slaps you hard across the face and says “really???” And if you reply “yes really” then she gives you the certificate.

5. Then you bring the certificate to the seller and you can buy whatever dumb thing he is selling.

6. If an article ever appears in the Wall Street Journal in which you (or your lawyer) are quoted saying that you were just a simple dentist, didn’t understand what you were buying and were swindled by the seller’s flashy sales pitch, then you go to prison.
Nintendo Switch + Ring Fit Adventure. Great if you have kids and find it difficult to make up time for sports.
Doesn't that kind of depend on having kids or love? There's probably a fair number of people out there skilled enough to do the work that doesn't have those things to distract from having a demanding job.

Ultimately it's a decision that you'd have to make depending on what you care about. You could turn your question on it's head; what's the point of having children or a significant other if you are incapable or unwilling when you could be making money for the things you do care about in life?
Beautiful color palette.
I think its a problem of people being forced to be on Red Team or Blue Team.

Both Red Team and Blue Team are dissatisfied with increases in crime, with more homelessness, etc.

Red Team has a narrative that policing has softened, that district attorney's offices have stopped prosecuting street crimes or let people out too early, that we have lost order.

Blue Team has a narrative that these crimes and homelessness problems need to be addressed through social safety nets, fixing income inequality or housing scarcity, etc. Basically focus on upstream changes rather than the street-level stuff. And also has a separate concern about police brutality or corruption.

A rational actor can likely see that there are merits to all of the above concerns and ideas. A rational actor could perhaps find a pragmatic answer that attempts to solve for all of these concerns, expresses empathy for each of these intersecting problems, and builds consensus.

But we are just full tribal, anti-working-across-the-aisle, full argue against strawmen versions of the other tribe, so that can't happen anymore.

Combine our current lack of the principle of charity with our two party system and we're fucked.

I'm sharing my experience. I can say that I had very good experience with community moderation for many many years across numerous different games.

By the sound of it, you haven't even tried it, you're just explaining why you don't believe it works?

And the end result then is that you have no moderation. Cheaters can still cheat, griefers can still grief, and hosting your game for a better experience is impossible. Yeah, that's the kind of thing that puts me off a game entirely.
When doing this kind of test it’s really a good idea to look at Instruments, which can tell you precise scheduling details, rather than trying to eyeball results from Activity Monitor. Might be a good tool to have in the toolbelt for next time.
