I remember feeling lost after I quit my job at the bank I used to work for. Remember seeing one of those threads and reading all the offers. End up sending my CV for 6 of them. 3 wrote back. 2 offered me a challenge. I've been working for 1 almost two years now. I'm happy with them and I like to think they're happy with me either. Great thread. Highly recommend.
Does the toolchain on x86 still build an x86 and ARM executable(s)? Perhaps that contributes to the 2x build time?
This weird, anti-Ukraine sentiment sounds like propaganda.
Let me guess, its Amazon?
We heard Putin's nonsense concerns - he accused Ukraine leadership of being literal Nazis. The President of Ukraine is Jewish and his family survived the holocaust. Putin has lied every step of the way. And you want us to sit down so he can tell more lies?

Senior full-stack JavaScript-focused engineer with a focus in single page apps, UI/UX, web games (three.js, etc) and crypto/web3. Fast-paced learner, very capable Linux sysadmin.

Looking for interesting and fun problems to solve! Contract/part-time/full-time welcome depending on the role.
I had the pleasure of interviewing with Bitnomial around a year or so ago. I didn't take the position due to a gap in compensation expectations, but I found the team to be a great group of folks and wish them a lot of luck!
If I understood Zuckerberg correctly during his Lex Fridman interview, he's trying to build an entire alternate reality based on this concept of monetizing in game items. He said something along the lines of, "People want to dress nice and look good in person, so why not in a VR meeting?" and then proceeded to talk about charging people for clothes and haircuts in the Metaverse. I have to wonder what sort of scenarios this might lead to, with all of Facebook's corporate partnerships. Are people going to end up having to pay Facebook in order to keep up with dress codes at company meetings? Will hair grow so anyone who doesn't pay Facebook for a haircut shows up looking like a bum? Will clothes become stained and ragged over time?

Lex even proposed an alternative of a closet that you only pay for once, but updates with a basic style over time. The suggestion was mostly dismissed by Zuckerberg.

Way too late to be talking about video games, this stuff is about to hit many other aspects of human interaction.
The cost to integrate them into a game certainly isn't zero, agree with you there
All the equations used to calculate blast, radiation and heat are public domain and can be found in the AEC/DOE publication "Effects of Nuclear Weapons". The effects, thanks to the glory of physics, are mostly simple polynomials with kilotonnage and distance (math.h pow()). It could easily be implemented by a high school programmer (at least of my era). The graphics is probably the hardest part.
Can you explain what you mean by "Ukraine is nuclear country"?
Everything is relative and our expectations are set by society and what is common. Today, losing a child is pretty uncommon. 3-4 generations ago if was very common. You expected to have 4-10 children and to lose one or two. It wouldn't be a pleasant experience, but I think it's incorrect to say it wasn't less traumatic (you expected it, you lost a lower percentage, etc). To quote Clint Eastwood's character in Gran Torino, "You're geared for it".
Sorry, I meant to do it immediately after the post but it's been a crazy week (we have ~200 employees plus families in the Ukraine). Won't complain though, the stuff they are going through is insanity.
Part of me suspects that hearing some sad songs as a child gives you a greater appreciation for life at a young age, and helps you to see the world while taking fewer things for granted. "Please don't take my sunshine away" sort of implies that it can be taken, its presence isn't granted, so be thankful that you have it.
Mark my words. Eurasia is uniting. Notice the Gulf Arabs don't support NATO? Notice the Indians, after having been trampled by the British a century ago. Nor do the Chinese after having been force fed dope by the same.

Seems like we are fast approaching the day when Anglo emperor has no clothes.

Seer Medical | Melbourne, Australia (Remote Possible in Australia) | seermedical.com

Senior Backend Engineer (TypeScript, Postgres)

Senior Systems Software Engineer (Rust)

Seer has developed the Sense, a medical device that allows patients to be monitored for Epilepsy diagnosis at home, rather than a week long hospital stay. This is significantly less invasive for patients, and is much less expensive. Approximately 1% of the world's population suffers from Epilepsy, and it is frequently misdiagnosed.

We're already the market leaders in Australia, and are now in the process of rolling out our product worldwide. In order to do this, we need to pair it with a significant amount of conventional software to store and process the collected data.

We are well funded and our salary bands are genuinely competitive.

You can contact me directly at michael.reitzenstein@seermedical.com - I'm an engineering manager that's still heavily involved in the code.
Cool. I'd love to see this become part of the stdlib rather than competing external packages.
> Russian army is amazing.

Which part exactly?

The elite spetsnaz that got captured?

The Chechenian army that got drone striked including the general?

The failure of securing the airspace?

The total cluelessness of the soldiers?

The inability to defend the airfield once captured?

The failed logistics?

Yeah, great army, never seen anything like it!
Data poisoning like this won't help if russian forces are being sent to a specific map item.

Best they can do for now is report these geo markers to google as soon as possible for deletion. (And hopefully Google bans the users who are adding these fake locations)
Wouldn’t have changed anything, except perhaps May would have been removed sooner and Johnson would have been made leader to fight and win the 2017 GE. There’s no way the Tories could have ignored the referendum results.
Yes off topic, and I edited my comment to reflect this. American slavery is a distinct type of slavery because of the geography and people involved. That is all I was saying.
I haven't seen anyone demonstrate using gdb via CLI in the way you can show off using vim proficiently and have people say "I get it".

In the reverse engineering space there's some folks that use gef. but maybe that's because linux folks dont have olydbg?

would love to see a livestream of someone using gdb in the context of real world engineering. SHOW me the productivity wins here. every article and conference talk about gdb is just handwavey hypotheticals about what you could do, but in practice I just see people moving through basic debugging incredibly slowly
It would be nice to know beforehand that once you get 40% through it stops asking questions about Nix and goes on to ask questions about NixOS. I made the mistake of thinking they were synonymous.
> Then Apple would have to maintain their build tools for other platforms. Waste of resources for something that ultimately isn't going to make Apple money.

It makes sense on Apple's part, but I still dislike it.

> I've never seen anyone complain that they have to own a Windows computer to develop Windows apps.

Windows can be installed on any computer, whereas macOS requires purchasing Mac hardware. Additionally you can cross-compile Windows apps on Linux (and possibly Mac) using MinGW toolchains (or with great difficulty, MSVC on Wine).
I suppose the easiest is to find a job that pays 150k/year.

But more seriously, you could flip houses if you have enough capital or access to it. This is not surefire at all, though.

FWIW, I 100% agree with this assessment.

Regardless of the outcome of the current flareup, I believe we're seeing the end of "Pax Americana". There is no way to accurately predict what will come next.
Due to historical endogamy of Indian castes, there are very often phenotypes that are associated with relative position in the caste hierarchy. This is highly regional, and far from exact, but leads to examples like the GP gave.

These patterns are often used by people as a shorthand for categorizing another's relative caste and often as the basis for discrimination.

At a very broad generalization, upper caste individuals tend to skew more toward more west asian, and less regional/indigenous phenotypes.

The trait most strongly associated with higher caste is fairer complexion, which is the basis of great deal of South Asian discrimination, and has ancient roots reaching back millennia, though it was reinforced by colonial powers. There are many exceptions to this though, and a lot of stories about people being misidentified as one caste it the other on the basis of complexion.

People pay close attention to this because phenotypes are a type of currency, especially in matters related to marriage and community identification, and also power relationships.
It seems to be more comfortable to use (for example you can see the list of sources and search in it vim like), but may be it's subjective or I didn't explore built in options enough.
I experienced the same tactic at Jenkins Acura in Ocala, Florida. Very shady. Funny enough, the sales guy was also apologetic for his manager. I walked out, but what a waste of everyone's time.

anyone have a picture of his car license plates that said ETHERNET? Surprised no one snapped it randomly ever
How would you enforce this? In the US this is completely illegal.

In addition, you would have to ask extremely invasive questions of everyone. So is your proposal that you require that your company ask for the detailed ethnicity of everyone? What happens when people refuse, do you just not allow them to interview or manage?

What about people who were born in the US, do you assume that if they are of Japanese descent they can't interview someone of Chinese descent?

No.It is not good for founders.
30 incremental builds an hour doesn't sound like a good process to me. Personally I find if I am building too often I'm not thinking about what I am doing enough and I'm just throwing things at a wall hoping they'll stick/work. A good software process involves a lot of thinking, a medium amount of typing, a small amount of compiling. I understand that sometimes the ideal and the reality are different of course.
Per current understanding, “M-theory” is one of five consistent descriptions of string theory , all of which are supposed to be related by dualities i.e. each description makes certain aspects easily manifest, but they’re all equally “correct”.

Truly good bets are rare. When you find one, you should double down. If you do this every time, you will come out ahead most of the time, if they are truly good bets.

Teams is the worst offender: it will single-handedly cycle my battery on a medium-long video call.

That’s just battery usage, not even touching on general performance, how buggy the app is in general.
You can’t truly become rich without risking becoming homeless.
I think they do; the problem is that Go puts way less things behind a pointer than Haskell does. Every struct is its own runtime representation. If you change the example in https://github.com/golang/go/issues/48018 to use a pointer indirection, I think it should work.
Continually try to step up and the boundaries of what you're comfortable with. Keep growing and learning new things. Always seek and take opportunities that are slightly or greatly above whatever "level" you're currently at.
Russia Bans Residents From Transferring Money Abroad As Currency Crashes
I agree. I guess politics and news coverage come after the more objective stuff I was thinking of. I guess not everyone interprets the facts the same, which is why I mentioned anxious people, who might have a tough time at the end of the pandemic, whereas other people had a tough time at the beginning, etc.

Thanks for the explanation. I'm not much into meme culture so the reference went over my head.

I guess his comment was innocent. It's strange how a I interpreted it as a slight against the LGBTQ+ community.
Hubs is a toolkit, it doesn’t prescribe a specific aesthetic style or metaphor oriented use case.
Time to establish a different term than triple A? What you describe reminds me of what is usually called a B movie: those always had the biggest, cheesiest monsters...

Presumably it would be an impossible cognitive dissonance for him to acknowledge (to himself) that actually it would be justified for Ukrainians to turn their back from Russia and join the West. Those people must be misguided/contaminated or defectors, and surely those who can’t be turned back can only be a small minority.

Beliefs like that are not standalone, they fit into a belief system. You can’t overturn them unless you overturn the whole belief system. Seemingly absurd beliefs can come about by the psychological necessity of keeping the belief system consistent. Putin’s belief system probably was formed during his KGB time in the 70s and 80s, and has continued to develop and has become stronger and harder to change since then. He’ll be 70 in October, unlikely to fundamentally change his mind at that age.
TBF to the 'sitting US congressperson', the Ukraine Ministry of Defense twitter also retweeted the Ghost of Kiev story.
That's exactly the point – if both countries claim to be the rightful owners of both other countries, they are not really separate countries.
I guess Wirth was still not cynical enough because even he couldn't foresee that developers would deliberately break and degrade a working, fast application (namely, the website experience) just so they can go and write two separate, bloated applications that do somewhat the same but not really. Only to then complain about build times of applications that didn't need to exist in the first place.
Ah, that's the way I read it. I was being charitable. I understand this is a contentious issue.

I'm a Pakistani American and I've worked well with many Indians. This is overcompensating.
You could easily put a session ID in it (and check against a DB), or have a field store a short expiration time stamp (and reissue periodically) if those matter to you.

It just isn’t REQUIRED.
Njalla has some protection promises
Russia has the Elbrus VLIW architecture, which is quite good with computations common in military applications (it has roots in specialized DSPs), so they are certainly not "stupid". But the problem is that developing an ISA is a relatively small part, most of investment and value lies in compiler and software infrastructure which can work with it. One of the biggest issues with Elbrus is the crappy proprietary compiler, which can not fully unlock the hardware potential. They also have to compile and debug Linux distributions and packets for thim themselves in-house, which adds to costs as well.
It's thought that the pineal gland releases a massive amount of DMT during dying which explains to some extent the "tunnel of light" type visions people report after near-death experiences. As someone who has done DMT and experienced a rare endogenous DMT experience during REM sleep, I have no doubt that the phenomena mentioned in this article is a result of a large dose of DMT easing the transition into death. It needs to be studied a lot more than it has.
A prompt on my phone and an app on my phone come down to the same thing, and I'm not interested in getting a physical hardware security key. The backup codes are one-time use, and there is no way I would keep track of a slip of paper for years without loosing it.

I could use my password manager (Bitwarden) as my TOTP generator, and I may eventually do that just to make all of these services shut up. But, wouldn't that leave my account no more secure than it already is today? It would effectively be single-factor authentication, since the password and the generator would be in the same place, protected by the same master password.
It's not that bad on my M1 MacBook Air to be fair. I had to do a training session which was 3h long on Teams and it ate 20% of the MBA's battery.

It was horrible on the previous Intel i5 MBP though.

I refused to install it on my M1Pro MBP!
It does, but not that obviously.

I'm a lesbian, and the main problems I've encountered are American culture/organizations acting as though everybody has a spouse (when you're homosexual, your dating pool is small enough that if there's nobody around, there's nobody around, but this hits single people in general), assuming that I could move or live anywhere (the suggestion to live in the middle of a rural area to save money was a lot more dicey for us a decade or two ago, and there are still a lot of places I can't/won't travel), and trying to be sure not to out myself on accident during interviews. I had to practice saying I had a boyfriend so I wouldn't slip up. That kind of thing.

That said, I also wasn't visibly gay until last year. I've never run the interview gauntlet as a butch woman, and I imagine that being a butch dyke or an effeminate male adds a new layer of issue.

They never TELL you they're rejecting you because you're gay (or a woman. Or too young. Or disabled). You just get fewer jobs than your peers.
That is wishful thinking. Despite the initial blunders, Russia is advancing in Ukraine at the same pace Germany was in Poland. And it's unlikely they'll get worse as time goes on (the Wehrmacht in its time used Poland to massively improve their operational readiness). Dictators in times of war, in countries subjected to isolation, tend to stick around. And even then, the absence of Putin doesn't mean the general trajectory of Russia would change.

I really don't see much hope for Ukraine, and considering the size of the NATO fast response teams, I expect more countries to fold before Russia starts stalling. I'd say every country without its own autonomous nuclear arsenal is at risk. That's includes everyone under America's umbrella.
