Personally I don't have a privacy issue with it per se but I have two phones, one is data only sim and I can't use signal on that device with their current model. I guess because the device is a "phone" whatever that means. If they do away with this reliance on phone numbers hopefully we could get something more flexible that allows me to use it on "phones" without phone numbers.
My God. How long do you have to stay for the sign-on to payout? I'd do that job for a year just for the sign-on bonus. $325k is like 2. Decades of saving up.

You can ruin all that on a 70K job.
I had a friend with Cyrix 6x86 MMX which had 32 MB of RAM.
Based on the whole "mobilecoin" pump and dump scam they tried to pull, I unfortunately expect this to be tied to some kind of identity shitcoin.
That's a clickbait headline for an article that has nothing to do with shorting. Of course it wasn't really about free speech for Spotify. They'd certainly have a lot more to lose if Rogan left than Neil Young. Keep on rockin in the officially recognized as acceptable world.
Honestly I have never found recruiters useful, and I've had some incredibly rude responses from them when I have politely declined, or when I have simply ignored them as spam. It's amazing to watch as a series of emails just gets progressively more aggressive and argumentative, as though they believe that they are entitled to my time.

If you send an unsolicited recruitment email you haven't earned a response.

Of course they always hide who's they're recruiting for (except for one time with a FB recruiter who got passive aggressive with my not responding - this is after I'd responded to multiple prior recruiters that I would literally never work there - where honestly I feel I should have tried to find a contact at FB to forward it to.

[edit: I also realize the "up to X" is bullshit, and should reply asking what the minimum is]
My reference on the 40 Acres comment is clearly off base and not what I intended, thanks for correcting. I thought it was primarily an American Dream relating to Manifest Destiny, but per the wiki it was a lie presented to African Americans after the American Civil War.

I am, however, aware of the scale of what I am proposing. A lot of the land to be controlled ends up being junk land, be it hazardous flood plain or otherwise challenging to develop, but it creates large buffer zones that constrains private development effort. Farmland is relatively expensive land because it has economic output. But that fine, call it $3000/acre. Dont buy high value farmland. Do buy un-farmable floodplain or wetlands. A lot of the land gets donated or conveyed via easement. Bigger cities will have bigger budgets to work with. You dont have to buy all the land, just strategic lands that apply pressure and create value in other forms, namely that a state park is available for all to use, a ranch is available for none.

It is not laughable, it is currently being done in many cities. Probably not viable in major cities, if your frame of mind is NYC or SFO, this process will not make as much sense because its too late.
neither of those worked.
$30k/year?!
Now we just need to get all the state government agencies to drop this requirement as well (looking at you, California).
I have been noticeably short of breath since getting a pretty bad case of Covid (hospitalized), and that was months ago.

Even things like climbing stairs has become a chore. One top of that, I was experiencing syncope on standing which they sent me to a cardiologist for. I couldn't complete the treadmill test to anyone's satisfaction so now we have to explore this further.

None of this existed prior to getting Covid, and it's far past the point of "it's all in my head". With the fainting on standing, I would literally drop to my knees as the world faded to black. I've never experienced anything like that in my life.

The shortness of breath is just another one to add to a list of problems now.

Note I was double-vaxxed when I caught Covid. I'll have to assume Omnicron although I have no actual data on that. It was a breakthrough case and I had a 104 fever, cough, and shortness of breath (that's why they admitted me). It's been downhill since then.
“There are no words I can say to adequately convey how deeply sorry I am for the way The Joe Rogan Experience controversy continues to impact each of you,” Ek wrote in a memo obtained by the Los Angeles Times. “To be clear, his guests dropping the N-bomb left, right and center -- we knew about that all along, and never had a problem with it as such - as long as it came attached to a decent revenue stream. But when it became a controversy, and started to negatively impact our stock price -- that's when we started to have second thoughts."
Discord works by keeping a serverside database of which people are talking to which people, which is, to a serious adversary, the most valuable single piece of information the service can cough up. Discord is much, much more convenient than Signal, and that's good. The services have different goals.
> if you watch carefully, you’ll see none of them are heading west.

I've seen this posted twice in different places by different people this week. It's not true.

While most satellites are west to east (or in polar orbits), most Israeli sats orbit east to west. This is because their launch center is on the west coast of their country and it's not good for them to be launching rockets over their neighbors.
Right, but Amazon isn't an early-stage startup. It's a tech giant that wants all the employee-squeezing benefits of being an early-stage startup: sacrifice your life and comfort for the sake of the company. It's Day One, after all.

The problem is that what makes that sacrifice potentially worth it at an early-stage startup is the potential for equity before hypergrowth. Amazon has virtually no chance of startup-like hypergrowth anymore; recently its stock has even started declining. So employees are being asked to provide outsized sacrifice for declining returns. Predictably, massive resignation and retention problems are the result.

Check out Wired; it's a signal clone, but they don't require phone numbers (just emails) and it seems to be built a lot better in many ways (e.g. allowing multiple accounts on one device).
Yes Excel has more features today. So what? We're still not making any measurable progress towards true AGI. We don't even know what the development path or ultimate goal looks like except for some vague hand waving about passing the Turing Test.
Looks like it's working fine in the latest TP.

It's sweet that it's stylable with CSS, so you don't get glaringly-out-of-place dialog boxes.
I feel that all workflow tools are simply lacking in terms of capabilities. Sure, the base-cases are covered but when it comes to something remotely useful it is best to be implemented with real code. That being said, I think there is certainly a need for some low-code tools where your requirement is simply basic automation and service plumbing, as long as it is not mission critical, i.e. take value from system A and put in system B.

For example, do you really want to implement the entire Slack interactive callback workflow for displaying a simple dialog to a user? I guess not. I workflow will do a much better job at that sort of problems.

That being all said, I don't think tines does a particularly good job at this because it simply chains a number of HTTP requests. Some of these APIs require special care and HTTP simply does not cut it.
I have always assumed that when we hear about $1M, $500k "junior", etc devs they're including stock based comp. While I am just an IC so obviously not near the upper echelons, I've never been aware of base salaries for ICs being in those regions.

It's more about class. The 1% are absorbing almost all the new wealth created and the rest of us get breadcrumbs and they -own- most of the government with occasional concessions lest the rabble rise up and overthrow them like in almost all civilizations where the powers that be eventually went to far. No one thinks we have robots that can replace all physical labor, low wage jobs. I think the 99% occupy wallstreet was headed in the right direction and that the powers that be have been using the media to polarize us all with poltical, racial, and political differences and keep us concentrating on our differences rather than our common enemy and the most valuable prize, self determination.
In my experience, it seems to be mainly an American thing... Maybe because I'm Trinidadian and I've grown up hearing a bunch of different races say it I just think it's silly to care..? I find idea of forbidden words to be so silly. Just gives them far more power if anything.
HomeKit's biggest challenge is that so much of the home automation market balks at Apple's requirement to be able to operate without a cloud service. Can't do surveillance capitalism or extort monthly fees or end-of-life product arbitrarily if you've got HomeKit branding, so of course that's first overboard.

The second problem is that Apple themselves are missing a number of functions that are baffling, such as not having history for metrics. I can't understand how it's impossible to have e.g. a history of temperatures in HomeKit.

Well, this uptick I've seen only in the last couple months so I'm wondering is there a culture change or impetus for culture change that occurred within the last month or couple months or so?

I think it's unlikely and that you're probably most likely right, but I want to fish out some comments from people in amazon who know what's going on.

Podcast interview with author of Mastering Apache Pulsar
Have you seen the questions and all the memorization you need to have for it? Dates, history stuff, names of people. Scroll down: They'll ask you 20 of these. Orally - it is not a written test. (I included a government link about it).

On the other hand, I had practice tests on a computer (at a school). My test was full of practical things and only a little history: Mine asked me about using the health care system and the schooling system and things like that - the sort of thing that once you learned general knowledge, you didn't have to worry too much if you couldn't remember a historical name or date. I took the civics test required for Norway, by the way, and they have a list of languages you could take it in. Of course, I had to take it to continue my residence so more folks wind up taking it.

Edit, forgotten thing: Whether or not someone is stateless depends on the home country, but generally, it won't - mostly because the US doesn't make you give up citizenship before you are granted on in the US. If you want to become a US citizen, though, your citizenship is going to depend, in part, on this civics test. This is what I was referring to.

Can you explain this a bit more? Am I correct in understanding that you feel it hurts you when your contacts find out that you have signal installed, hence why signal shouldn't do it? What is the impact of someone who has your phone number knowing you are available over Signal?

Are there communities out there where someone being on signal is a red flag?
It's pretty absurd to suggest that trade wars are even remotely equivalent to kinetic wars.
It increases chances of inflamation of heart muscle in young men. If you've had it already then you are fine, but Moderna is not adviced for men under 30.
> Whether that's because those students are 100% indoctrinated or simply scared of retaliation against family black home, I do not know.

Most people in China have a fairly positive view of their country, which is not surprising, given how massively life has improved over the course of just one generation.

A lot of students go abroad, and then are shocked at the sheer amount of hatred towards China and demonization of the country. It's not that the students are brainwashed to like China. It's just that they have an entirely different perspective.
Disclaimer: I work at AWS.

I see comments about the culture a lot and I feel the need to chime in and say that it's not actually bad? At least in my team, the work life balance is fine, my manager is great and the projects are interesting.

Not saying that it's the same for every SDE, but some of the stories you read online make it seem like they shackle you to your desk and PIP you into submission.
That would be truly impressive if less than 2 years of occasional closed gyms turned you from perfectly healthy to at risk of a heart attack. You've managed to squeeze a lifetime of bad choices into two years.
I will look into these, thanks! I have found that I feel my best when I'm taking some vitamin supplements. Very likely a placebo effect but hey, if it works it works... Also I am taking some melatonin to hopefully help with the insomnia I tend to get when going off cannabis.
By the way, this game made the rounds recently for actually having Kinect 2.0 support[0]. And of course within a month someone actually recently beat the game this way[1]. Much to the surprise of the developers who did not at all design the game around it and basically hacked the support together in the span of five hours.

To me it makes intuitive sense that -- at the lowest QoS setting -- a chip in a laptop would be tuned to a lower power draw than a chip in an always-plugged-in desktop.

Not that I'm sure if that's what's happening here. But if so, it seems consistent that the lappy would be slower than the desktop.
Why would supposedly secure communicator use actual phone number as identifier is beyond me.

And everybody does that, either phone number or email.

The only software I could find for anonymous communication was old Polish communicator http://gg.pl which uses arbitrary numbers as identifiers

I understand that startups are scared that they won't be able to build up userbase from scratch but come on! Discord and Slack did it.
In my experience, they usually won't tell you who the clients are unless they are actually interested in you for the role. I have tried this with one recruiter, and it didn't work well.

I think in a marketplace of ideas, many ideas are available, and the better ideas are embraced. The bad ideas stay on the shelves. But they do not get thrown out, at least the bar for that should be high.
Not everyone want to run with mask around dirty city block.

It is really interesting to see this mental gymnastics, if someone is fat, gets virus and dies, it is "the plague". But here we have dozen people talking about "personal responsibility".
Hmm... In the US, login.gov still uses id.me for verification (at least on new signup), and this is the sso for TSA stuff like Global Entry, and the Social Security site. I guess it's used "less" now, but is still present for US Government services.

Having been in the same situation, as well a similar one invoking cigarettes, I suggest to you winter green life savers. (Bare with me.)

They certainly don’t help with any physical issues but they help with the mental side.

I’m not sure what it is but the fact that you can move them around in your mouth and gnaw on them while still lasting a while makes it feel like you’re “doing something.”

Every time I’d want to partake i would eat a life saver. They are also innocuous so there’s no guilt or anything.

And I’m sure you can replace them with whatever gives you the sensation described above. I know it’s silly but they were my secret weapon.
> Yes, the lack of star parallaxes were the main argument offered by Tycho Brahe against a moving earth theory.

Much earlier than Brahe. Aristotle in De Caelo (Book II, part 14):

> The earth, then, also, whether it move about the centre or as stationary at it, must necessarily move with two motions. But if this were so, there would have to be passings and turnings of the fixed stars. Yet no such thing is observed. The same stars always rise and set in the same parts of the earth.

Interesting read! The most disturbing part is not fraud scientists, I think there will always be a certain percentage of fraudsters in any field. The most disturbing part is the 300+ citations, scientists who based their work off of an obviously garbage paper.

It seems inescapable that the reason why must have been complete mathematical incompetency across the entire field. Say a psychologist partners with perhaps a chemist and uses some organic chemistry to 'prove' some critical point in a paper. I could imagine brushing over the details and citing the paper when any chemist would see the fraud as 'obvious'. Such is the complexity of cross discipline science I guess, and the reality that the sum total of human knowledge is beyond any individual's ability to grasp.

That being said, knowing that some papers are utter garbage I should do my due diligence by taking a humble pill and reaching out to my colleague in the chem department across the street to tell me what this critical chemistry is about before I include it in my work.
My son treats Lego sets like a model airplane: build it once exactly to spec, put it on your shelf in your room, never change it again. The one difference maybe is they will get played with more.

Yet he's very creative with Magna-Tiles in exactly the same way we played with Legos when I was a kid (I was born in 1976). I do think part of the difference is the presentation and marketing of the set, and how specific some of the pieces obviously are. Yes, some kids can be very creative with these sets, but Lego the company would prefer you buy another set.

This is all coming a decade after the fact, though.

It was quite clear at the time that he never intended to end up in Russia. A decade on after all of his stolen intelligence is stale, it’s not surprising he would feel pressure to give some concessions to the Russians given that there has been no change back in the US with regards to charging him as a traitor.
Swap to a dry herb vape, use it to minimize your consumption amount. A lot of the "brain fog" and other side effects we attribute to smoking marijuana are actually caused by other chemicals than cannabinoids, such as carbon monoxide, even benzene. Swapping to a dry herb vape can help with that tremendously, if you opt for a device with good temperature control.

It'll help you cut down on the cost significantly too. Of course, a good vape is an upfront cost, but you can save a fortune in cannabis costs. Like you, I partake morning, noon, and night. But I go through about 10g a month. Some friends of mine would run through that in a weekend.

Arguably, it was Spotify's decision to bring trolls like Rogan onto the platform, knowing full well that this is exactly what they were -- which was where politics got "brought into the job" in the first place.

Not their employees' understandable disgust with that decision.
Not only do they keep your friend information on their servers, they maintain a copy of every single message you've ever sent via Discord. Their service is the antithesis of private communications.
Be careful returning to a full exercise schedule, esp after seeing effects like that. I see a running twitter group anecdotally observing a risk of a hard backlash of symptoms for runners trying to get back to their regular schedule too soon after even a mild covid bout.

As I've said multiple times I've only listened to the two new controvertial "antivax" episodes since he moved to Spotify. Maybe Rogan is antivax, but I did not get that from those two episodes.

That has already been done (see: Dexed), think of this as the last steps in documenting what exactly it is that the DX7 actually does internally.

You can then use that to:

- verify that the emulators indeed get it all correct

- test your assumptions about how you thought it worked

- maybe program it to do things it wasn't strictly speaking meant to do

i'm no expert in the inner workings of apple but i would have considered Ive head of product. just curious as to why you put Schiller ahead?

of course Marketing is an integral part of any large business and of course apple has been well above average in how their campaigns and messaging would rank in that regard.

i added the commentary from Steve about the Scully era to the original post for context. from his explanation the nuance is, IMO, that when a company gets into this endless revenue cycle, a sales/marketing effort can demonstrate growth - hard numbers - far easier than a new product could. the new product could take years to become positive in NPV while a marketing campaign can "show up" by next quarter's earnings release.
