A thousand physical qubits with current error rates? Pretty much impossible would be my guess.
I've watched some of the interviews they put up on youtube, but one thing I found lacking was an actual answer of "I would pass you, but maybe 20% of my peers wouldn't" vs. "This is a hard no for me at my current company, but previous companies you have a 50/50 shot".

Instead all the feedback seems like "you did good, but you should work on..."

Regarding the 'pay later' thing, I wonder if the term is too short? Let's say theoretically I sign up, completely and utterly bomb the first mock interview, and decide I need to spend 3 months doing hackerrank every weekend. Then I do another one, and i'm doing better, by the time I get the actual job the time period has expired?
Why isn’t there a term overwhelmingly used in romance/erotica then, which is famously women-catered? And women consume a lot of romance/erotica.

> You claim there is "sufficient evidence" yet provide none

Do I need to provide evidence that the Chinese government should not be trusted and that China has control over all businesses based within its borders? This is common knowledge.

> I'm less worried than if it were used by American companies to target me specifically for ads

You should try practicing what you preach regarding so called xenophobia. Also your defensiveness in this regard is misplaced because my post is not pro American ad companies and it is not pro data collection. I am anti data collection. So not only am I against tiktok because it's controlled by a genocidal dictatorship that has raised a legion of indoctrinated nationalists, I'm anti tiktok because it represents the absolute worst of social media.
Of course there is value. That's why iPhones are priced 1000$+
It’s such a blurry line now because with so many vendors, you can find everything on a spectrum these days
That's definitely a cultural thing, and in the US it's generational as well. 50 years ago folks expected to work for a lifetime at the same company, and moving jobs was considered a big red flag.

But today? It's more like a gig economy, where you work at a place long enough to finish a project, then reevaluate. As my buddy Bob says, each year his annual review/raise is an 'offer to stay'. He compares it with what he could get elsewhere, and moves if that's the right decision.
Well, it is buzzfeed...
> Journalist are certainly a field where these days you can be easily replaced even by possibly unpaid intern

Only if you're a median journalist. If you're a top 1% caliber journalist you're not replaceable. It's much like software engineering, social media influencers, and Hollywood in that regard. 10x skill gap between median and top and heavily bimodal comp model as a result.
> Democratically elected politicians versus central party that allows no dissent and has complete control over information and actions of its citizens to the point of genocidal assimilation.

You're saying the Chinese government is so powerful and competent that they have complete control over information and actions of over one BILLION people? Wild claims like this one should be substantiated.

Although your name is wildly sinophobic and racist so I doubt there is any evidence you can pull up.
Yes, CMPXCHG is a relatively more expensive instruction. In x86 it is a memory barrier instruction.
I thought exactly the same the first day Cloudflare announced Email Routing. Email sending is a few Billion with only a few large competitors. I guess that's one of their long-term plan or at least I hope so. They have knowledge, market, and money to provide better-added value than Amazon SES.
Why aren’t there women specific terms for the romance or erotica that women overwhelmingly consume then is my confusion. Because it’s not like women don’t get off. They just have different mediums to consume erotic content.

Nothing subtle about that. Some of the subreddits are completely blocked on mobile web, telling you to get the app.

Unfortunately, Android supports this by only letting verified apps respond to URLs by default and making it really hard for users to allowing unofficial apps to do it.

...Do you not have curtains or a couch?

I've owned a home for over 15 years, and I still don't have curtains because it is too overwhelming. Current couch is Ikea, so I just wrote down the number, next couch will be leather.

Edit: One thing I know about fabric is that linen is made from flax, in 2016 I took a tour at a revolutionary war house where they used to make linen. I only went in because there was a pokemon in it, but it was still very interesting.
You can sideload, but the interfaces are weird and it's not anywhere near as open as a normal stock Android, let alone LineageOS or a real Linux like Kobo/Pocketbook (my older Kindle Paperwhite also runs some flavor of *nix IIRC, but not as easily hackable, and no idea about newer versions).
I'm pretty easy-going but also a 6'5" well-off white male, so I'd have no problem dealing with this sort of behaviour (emotional and/or physical) right before I found the door. I feel really bad with how a woman, minority or someone who really needed the pay cheque would have to deal with this.

How Sony can make a comeback in the console wars
Eh. My PHD sucks but it's better than a real job.
If we talk at that level though there are lots of other terrible things at that level of crime. The alternative to capitalism, meaning private ownership of capital, is collective or state control of capital.

If we start talking about terrible things done by collectively or state owner endeavors we find things just as terrible like the holomdor, the 5 Year Leap. I mean don't get me wrong Apple is doing some seriously terrible things with their power grabs and monopolies, but I don't know if equates to 5 million dead of famine in 5 years, and although Google is violating my privacy and sucking up everyone's data I would prefer that over being loaded on a train to a concentration camp.

My point isn't to exonerate capitalism, because Nestle is a truly despicable company and have committed crimes of close to the same magnitude, but to believe that just changing the system is going to magically make everything better is in my opinion naive, because no matter how great you try and make your system if you fill it entirely with bad people it will result in bad outcomes.

Additionally we often find that during times of large scale change in "systems" it is more often than not the most ruthless, sociopathic, despotic individuals rise to the top because they are most willing to do whatever it takes to retain power. In contrast it seems like the activist investors that amass capital and attempt to force changes in company through monetary means is much less disruptive for the vast majority of people's lives.

EDIT: For some line breaks and missing word.
> Can you produce fusion power? Yes

If it takes more than 1W of input power to produce 1W of power from fusion, then I'd say the answer is no. The distinction is not "commercially viable", it's "net energy production". We're not there yet (and are actually quite a lot way from it).

> And I'm telling you,

You can’t. But you can ban apps that don’t comply to these laws. Similarly to how China band google and Facebook for not complying with their laws.
At least for some time and some accounts, the link only showed up if the owner of the meeting had enabled it in some three-layers-deep menu.

I assume that for enterprise customers it's enabled by default though because they realize that making paying customers fail to have their meetings is not a winning strategy.
I think Linode’s approach to this is best: they offer a “virtual console” that basically consists of an SSH gateway that pipes to your VPS’s virtual serial port.
I think this is a great example of why fusion will probably not drop in price.

With semiconductors, prices fall continuously because there is continuous iteration, and starting from the very very first lithographic circuits there was a market. There's an entire industry, competitors, and it's a factory system.

Fusion is not like that, it will be like building monuments, there's not thousands or millions of the same thing getting churned out, it will be all specialized construction for each piece.

You may say that a chip did specialized in that each of the transistors re wired together in very specific ways, but the semiconductor industry is a factory factory in some sense, you build a set of masks and that's your factory for your chip.

Let's say you design a fusion reactor, and then 12 months later you see how to shave off 1% of the costs somewhere. That iterative gain is lost, because the fusion reactors will be built very rarely, and building each one in a new custom way poses lots more risk than doing the same design for 10 years. They are just too big and expensive to show the same sort of mass manufacturing gains that can be seen with technologies that have learning curves.

I could be wrong, and I certainly hope I am, but I would bet a hell of a lot more money on a new battery chemistry than I would on fusion as being a terrestrial power device.
I thought it was implied that this was a distraction.

Gets people on both sides engaged and takes over the headlines and the hope is that it wipes partygate off the headlines and short term memory loss sets in and everyone forgets about partygate by election time.

Trump would just say something completely insane every other day to keep the headlines thrashing on nonsense to distract away from whatever else was going on.

Also think this is similar to the way that Klopp whines about the length of the grass after losses to keep media attention on what nonsense he's saying in pressers and off the performance of his players on the pitch.
Throw away account for obvious reasons:

Someone made a claim in a review that I, or someone on my team (it was unclear which from the review), tried to cover up a sexual assault [and some other claims that we were nasty people in general]. Investigative lawyers were hired in relation to the sexual assault cover up claim, and they spent the next few months trying to get to the bottom of what might have happened. In the end, nothing could be found. No person came forward, the lawyers investigated with current and past team members, it was exhausting and painful. A lot of time and money was spent, but we didn't get any sign that the claim was in fact true. The company asked for people to come forward with more information, nothing happened. Further, the original poster from Glassdoor could not be reached, it was a dead end.

At the end of the day, the post survived. The company tried to get it removed yet Glassdoor wanted no part in censoring the claim, despite it being backed by zero evidence. It hurt me, it was difficult to manage with my relationship, my team members...it still upsets me today. I am torn between thinking maybe there was something that happened I didn't know about, and that this is just an angry person trying to cause trouble. I'll possibly never know, but it continues to upset me even now as I write this.

I just went back now and checked, the post has been modified to remove this claim. I know it was there for about 12 months.

So yeah, based on this, I don't know Glassdoor offers the flexibility some imply it does. I don't know what resulted in it finally changing, but the damage is done in my opinion.
25mpg definitely doesn't sound right for a Corolla. That's roughly what I can get in my fullsize car if I try not to "stretch its legs" too much ...and it's got a big V8.

If there is too little CSF (e.g. a CSF leak), the brain 'slumps' but it doesn't "crush itself under gravity".

Too much CSF can lead to hydrocephalus, which is enlargement of the ventricles. I wouldn't describe it as CSF "compressing" the brain tissue.
Sure, your point stands if you pose it that way.

But if you pose it as seeing album art for music that you listen to (and titles!), that’s going to get a yes from a lot of people (myself included).

After having been in 3 very fast growing startups I got completely burnt out. So I got a job like the one you are describing: The pay is basically double of what I was making before, it is absolutely out of all proportion for my home country and the team is amazing. However it is also quite boring as well, I've never been in a "largish" slow phase company. I am enjoying the ride because once this is over, I know I won't be able to get a similar job elsewhere.
Hey, friendly founder advice. Your opening hero and sub text does nothing to actually describe what your API is. This text you wrote would in my opinion be way better

"We are building an API that allows developers to access energy data, such as electricity usage or billing data, from utilities."

Change it to "An API to access your users utilities"

sub text: "Our API gives you access to your users energy data, such as electricity usage or billing data, to help build richer more meaningful applications in X industries"

Anyways, congrats on the launch!
A model that just takes grades and degrees, which is most of the actual data the article presents, as inputs probably does not work. There are so many more attributes to consider: race, tenacity, resilience, etc.

Show HN: ZXB – Script Manager for ZX
A very large inernational engineering company hires lots of new grads, one of them a former co-worker of mine who described how her boss told her "You're like an orange; we'll squeeze all the juice out of you until there's nothing left but pulp and peel, then you'll quit or we'll throw you away". I guess this could also describe most law firms and management consultancies as well. Is it better or worse when it's systemic and not just an a-hole CEO?
Exactly this. I don't understand how people can believe pre-college education in the United States has fallen off a cliff. It has always been generally awful and very slowly improving. SAT scores have been steadily rising in all cohorts, even as more people have taken it.

The US benefited in the post-war period by draining Europe of its top scientific talent, which catapulted it to the top by a wide margin. There is no reason to expect that level of dominance to persist.

A problem I face is that mind maps represent only _one_ form of organization. In my head I can switch between various perspectives to some extent. If I try to make a computer help with the organization, I typically lose track of the mental map that I have, once the graph layout changes. I wonder how this process works in a brain, where switching feels more fluent.

Also, your comment made me wonder if a 3d map would be intrinsically better, but I doubt that that is the case. The distance metric is perhaps the limiting factor. A time dimension (for instance in the form of hyperlinking) works quite well, but obviously this requires time and effort from the user.

And in this context I would like to mention Kinopio, which makes mind mapping fun: https://kinopio.club/

The most sensational, and arguably most valuable, use is breaking hard encryption, so QC has "nation state STEM/security funding" written all over it. Even if it's 1% likely to be used in this way, it makes sense for wealthy nations to spend on it. But yeah, it's not the same story as for the IC boom.

>Is there anything even a tiny QC can do better, faster, and cheaper than a classical computer?

This is a really good question, and I don't know the answer. If I were to try, I'd focus on QC efficient algorithms, and what you can do with that in an application. So, in your system a QC is a magic box that takes an O(n^2) algo and makes it O(n), say. But for ordinary humans, n is very small, so this won't matter. I don't think there is mundane problem, e.g. one dealing with ordinary productivity, that a QC can do better than classical. It's shaping up to be a nation-state funded capital intensive information superweapon against private communication. And you know what? Maybe if you can maintain the infrastructure and staff to build one, you deserve to have it! It's especially untroubling if it's capacity is limited, like being able to read 10 2048-bit RSA encrypted messages per day. That's a superpower, but a very limited and expensive one, which I am fine with.
Again, you seem to be nitpicking my upper bounds estimate of their traffic. Fair enough. Are you making any broader point other than that we may mildly disagree on what that bound is? If so, that's fine, I picked a higher round number than is likely. This simply reinforces the broader point I was making.

Jeep Cherokee does so periodically, but Mopar is relatively well known for having a high quality infotainment system.

Honestly, speaking as someone who's pretty heavily invested in the Apple ecosystem, I'd like iOS to (be made to?) allow sideloading in order to keep Apple honest.

Assuming it works out the same as on Android, I very much doubt that sideloading would ever be mainstream or popular, but the existence of the option would serve as a constraint on how user/developer-hostile Apple can be.

(And I entirely agree with the article that Apple eliding over the entire internet-sales era of software is highly disingenuous...)

I've written fairly complicated React SPA UIs (certainly much more complicated than anything I've seen a car infotainment system other than, say, map rendering specifically) than run fine on relatively ancient phones and Chromebooks, so I think you're excusing just plain bad design a little too much here. I have to think they'd have the same issues regardless of platform, or if not only from using something that takes away control of the kind of things that can cause lag issues in React.

> Semi-recently I had an (maybe my first?) experience where I wasn't the favored party in a situation

You're mid-30s and you might have just experienced your first thing like that? Man or woman, that's hard to believe. And more importantly, I'm not sure your experience can be generalized to all men.

As someone who has experienced situations like that frequently, and knows other men who have, it's a bit frustrating to see the implication that we all feel like "we're perfect for this" or "we're made for this" all the time.
