There are entire books dismantling the boring old colonial-narrative around Caste (which amusingly gathered pace when Hindus started actively opposing the British). Please read if you dare have an open mind. The crime-rates don't bear it out; the historical documentation is non-existent; and the conceptual clarity is pretty much non-existent.

What does exist though is shrill propaganda, harking to the old Christian-Protestant narrative about 'evil pagans' being misled by a 'satanic priestly' class.

Anyone living in India knows how ridiculous this is when so-called Dalits have state-sanctioned preferential discrimination for everything from education to bureaucracy, when most leaders today are from so-called Dalits, and when even vast empires in the past were created and run by the same people. For the record, the current (arguably, most popular in history) PM is also a "Dalit", and his right hand man is a Jain.

In fact, there are even reports by colonial British auditors (white ones, since Indians are "uncivilized, non-European), from the 19th century which document native village schools filled with Shudras. Here's a summary, but you should be able to find the source material if you like [1].

https://indiafacts.org/not-oppressed-a-statement-of-shudra-p...

The father of the CM in a large state of India, asked 'Brahmins' to go back to Volga because of the unsubstantiated Aryan-Invasion theory that fuels this. The Dravidian party goons resort to cutting the pluck of hair, and the sacred thread when confronted intellectually. The Indian state basically denies Hindus the right to either run temples, and takes over its wealth and destroys native culture unhingedly.

It's extremely irresponsible for people who have no clue what BS they are spouting, to make the situation worse simply for some brownie points. The shallowness of such law-suits was already proved beyond doubt in the UK [2]. India has extremely draconian laws already whereby any 'Dalit' taking offence and making a complaint lands a person in Jail indefinitely.

What more do you occidental lot want ? To send the Brahmins to the gas chambers ? You have the entire sub-continent of Anglo-slaves, now that colonization has come full circle with the Indian state and has successfully destroyed Indian languages and cultures.

Wow, I'm clearly a minority, but I'd say "NEITHER". The first thing is to find something you like and can be passionate about. Then - work on it. It can be stupid or crazy, that's fine. Go get a horse or hang-glider or a kiln or a 3d printer or a commodore 64 or a guitar or lima beans or astronomy or trolling reddit or...

Don't work on something you don't really care about. No reason to ever do that.

Don't work on nothing at all. It's literally the same thing as working on something you don't care about except less productive.

Everyone can find something interesting to be passionate about. No excuse.
That's not a justification. Maybe JS used the same flawed reasoning?
Eight years have passed since the last time Russia invaded Ukraine _and no actual progress towards NATO membership for Ukraine was made_.
Opendoor New Products Team | Product Engineer | Anywhere in US | REMOTE | Full-time

Opendoor’s mission is to empower everyone with the freedom to move. We believe the traditional real estate process is broken and our goal is simple: build a digital, end-to-end customer experience that makes buying and selling a home simple, certain and fast.

We are a “startup within a startup.” A small, cross-functional team working on one of Opendoor’s next plays. I helped create this team when my previous YC startup was acquihired by Openhood.

For the right candidate, this role should feel like the best of all worlds: the funding, supportive infrastructure and gravitas of a public company; with a full-stack, scrappy team building from scratch, immersing in customer needs, and iterating fast.

Our team is unique within Opendoor, and also for the technology industry more generally. We have c-level executive sponsorship to move fast and independently, and to build from first principles. Our team has experience building from “0 to 1” at Opendoor, Square, Dropbox, Uber, and Y Combinator-backed startups.

Do you think cows survive the winter without heating? Weeks and months at sub zero temperatures? It can only partly be covered by biomass for the farm itself. And even indirectly, all energy markets are connected.
The context of the discussion was reliable used cars.

If you buy a used Audi you are going to have a lot of problems. That’s what my comment addresses. The driving experience is not that good when the shocks are blown to shit, bearings are spun, or the timing chain inevitably fails and the pistons drive the valves through the head.

Also, my 4Runner will smoke most Audis, it has 385,000 kms on it, and I change the oil once or twice a year.

I bet most Audis the age and mileage of my 4Runner would start spinning bearings during a spirited drive, and my G35 just runs circles around them.

If you’re an idiot buy an Audi, if you’re looking for reliability buy a Toyota if you want a great sports car buy a Corvette. The only reason to buy an Audi is if you’re nostalgic for the Quattro days of rally.

I guess if you want to drive an iPhone they aren’t bad.

Audis are basically fat, slow and unreliable. (Yes they make some decent cars if you want to pay Z06 prices for Mustang performance with 6.0 powerstroke reliability.

Btw I’m German, I have a bit of an idea what the engineering culture is like. It’s basically an engineering circle jerk, anyone can make a big unreliable engine that produces less power in more space than a $300 pushrod LS.
Sanderson didn't write much of the Wheel of Time, only the very end after the (main) author died.
The part where the code needs to execute correctly is engineering domain. But lots of bad code executes correctly. "Programs must to be written for people to read, only incidentally for machines to execute." Writing things for people to read is unavoidably an arts discipline.
you didn't get the problem.
Namecheap made two unethical things, one annoying and small and the other that cost lives.

1) The fact that they ask to move Russians to other registrators, is just barely an inconvenience. It cost me 30 seconds to create a ticket in scrum and developers will move everything. But misjudgment by nationality is bad. Imagine if all Jewish customers will get such letters because Isreal/Palestinian war?

2) Catastrophic is this: instead of using millions of dollars from Russian customers to help to save Ukraine and lives - they steer away from this money to governmental control Russian registrators. In other words, their CEO Richard just send this million dollars to Putin instead of Ukraine. That will cost lives.
"Go phone?"
I was at AT&T (later AT&T Wireless) when they were talking about their own "Go Phone."
My R&D group got wrangled in on this. I brought up that the Banzai Institute had a cellular device called "Go-Phone" used in the early-/mid- 1980's and that we should check if we can use the name though the Institute came up with it...

I played it with a serious face, reality is that it's from a novel by Earl Mac Rauch. I still chuckle when I hear [read] the name.

As a rabble-rouser/tester-of-belief-systems and gullibility, I still act like the Banzai Institute is real.

Edit: p. 14 of "Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai."
The point is there is no difference between Harvard's current admissions policy and telling the marginalized Asian students, "great application, but we don't accept your kind here anymore." It's not right when it happens to Asians, it's not right when it happens to Blacks, it's not right when it happens to anybody.

Those are modified by kingdom and republic. There are many kingdoms and republics, which is why you identify it with “the”. That’s not what’s happening with Ukraine.

The Gambia is an edge case, as it’s requested by its government. From Wikipedia:

From a backwards-compatibility standpoint, WinAPI hands down.

A while back I found a game from 1993 which I pulled off floppy disk. It is a 16-bit executable that was originally designed for Win 3.1.

To my surprise, it runs fine on (32-bit) Windows 10. With sound and everything.

I have Mac applications from three years ago that will not run on the current macOS.

I have Linux applications that broke and/or became crashy during a routine system update which updated some libraries and required a recompile to restore stability.
I would say the response rate is amazing and much more personal touch than applying through those forms in web.

As a European however I found the salaries to be on the lower on for the few EU companies I talked to and so never did go further in the process.

It absolutely should not even if it could (which it can not since the memory layouts don’t match), as that undermines the type system.

> noticed that not a single comment had a reply from someone who’s looking to hire.

People are usually contacted on their email, not openly in the thread. Do you also look at the “who is hiring” thread and think that nobody is applying to those jobs because they don’t have any responses in the thread?
We’re not discussing the local language, we’re discussing the English language.

By "Tolkien ripoff", do you mean anything beyond "fantasy novel"?
I'm not versed in secretarial terms-of-art, but given the unusual grammatical construction, I believe the "to" you left out of that list is actually doing the heavy lifting. Assumedly there is a difference between working under executive and management personnel and being staff TO executive and management personnel.

Though a real quick search did turn up a case where what the lawmakers intended by "management" was in question, so there is a distinct possibility they wrote their terms badly. It's weird reading a law that introduces terms like that without defining them.
Real Windows programmers use windbg, which is comparable to GDB. Even better built-ins.
But the MSVC dbg UI also has its advantages.

I like that the extremely challenging bosses can be bypassed, but are still there for those who want it and I think frees FromSoftware to make some bosses even more challenging.

For example, there’s a spot where 2 of 3 major bosses have to be defeated. The third one is EXTREMELY difficult compared to the other two. Like, not even close. I didn’t have to beat it, having handily dispatched the other two, but I set a personal goal. I then proceeded to spend 4 hours the other night trying to beat it. I got frustrated, I got help from other players, but I just couldn’t progress.

Finally the multiplayer servers went down, and I didn’t want to quit. I started paying attention. I analyzed why I was dying, and adapted a three phase strategy for the different parts of the boss fight. First time, died, second time, died but got it to low health. Third time was the same, then finally the fourth time it all came together in harmony, and I beat the boss. The feeling I got from that was exquisite, like I had EARNED something, even if it’s just some game and mostly a waste of time.

It felt similar to when I used to raid in World of Warcraft, but without the 40+ hour a week commitment.

It’s been years since I’ve felt a sense of accomplishment anywhere close to that because of my professional career. Most of the projects I work on are pretty boring.

When you have half a dozen generic builtins but reject the idea that builtins are necessary, and can’t even be arsed to provide a working vector type, you’re nowhere near “good”.
Fraudulently recording steps, and the other example of you gave making calls to the API.

Legally, those API calls signify something in the real world. You are representing that the action/status signified by the API call happened in the real world. _It's one thing to accidentally or mistakenly call those APIs, but to do so deliberately if such action/status is not true is fraud.

By itself, that the API calls are fraudulent wouldn't matter. But in your case, the purpose of the fraud is financial gain: each API call earns you money. In the U.S., this would be (felony) theft by fraud, among other crimes. French laws are more complicated, and as I'm not French nor do I speak French I won't attempt to go into any detail as to what the specific crimes would be, other than to say it appears that your actions, if performed, would appear to constitute several different crimes.

[Note that in the U.S., intent matters, so fake API calls for purposes of QA testing, security testing, etc., isn't fraud...but could be a crime if performed without the website owner's permission.]

NATO doesn't decide what NATO does. The US decides what NATO does. The US will not close the airspace over Ukraine because then they'd be at war with Russia. The US will be physically endangered by Russian nukes at home. No way.

Pretty sure the distraction of people complaining about people fooling around with alternative date formats is at least 100 times greater than the distraction of people using them.

I think it's plausible that things we say or do now will matter 7900 years from now. The languages we speak today, and the beef, pork, and wheat we eat, are to a significant extent the result of the Bug-Dniester culture 7900 years ago; and Voyager 2 will very likely still exist 7900 years from now unless we catch up with it. And the advent of writing has made it much easier for direct cultural influence to span vast gaps of time.

I think it's very likely that the human species will become extinct within a century, but quite possible that something will survive because of what we say and do today.

Who will be sanctioned is unpredictable. A week ago nobody was sanctioned.
A couple years ago, I needed a front end developer to implement the work of our designer in a way the team could maintain. Not having a network in front end, I combed through the past 3 months of "Who wants to be hired" and freelancer threads, shortlisted 7 with the right skillset, got a quote from each, discussed their portfolios internally with the team, and hired the one we agreed on. The site is still up today. That was probably the fastest hiring cycle I've ever done, from start to payment in about a week or two.

I will browse the thread as a hiring manager but it is fairly rare that what I am looking for has relevant candidates. It is easier to advertise in Who's Hiring and get many qualified applicants with a much higher conversion rate than any channel except recommendations by existing employees.

Similarly, I found more relevant people faster in Who Wants to be Hired than on the regular sites for promoting one's design portfolio which felt a bit like browsing LinkedIn.
Sadly I believe it will stop working.

I'm in the same boat and have been putting off moving to a Google blessed solution because of the effort required to navigate the bewildering array of documentation, client libraries and authentication mechanisms Google offers.

Much of the documentation and examples Google makes available are targeted at accessing Gmail on behalf of a human user (who has access to a browser) rather than accessing it on behalf of a machine (which does not). Cutting through the noise is half the battle!

I reluctantly spent some time this morning trawling through it and whilst I now have a working solution I couldn't begin to say whether it is the right approach. In the end I decided to ditch SMTP and use the GMail API [1] with a service account [2] setup with domain-wide delegation [3] which is nearly as scary as it sounds.

One caveat of this approach is that I choose to use a service account `key` (not to be confused with an `API Key`!) rather than the Google recommended "Workload Identity Federation" [4] so no-doubt this will be depreciated at some point.

If you must stick with SMTP then [5] is a good resource for showing how to use SASL XOAUTH with an access token to authenticate with Gmail SMTP. Of course, you need to obtain the access token from Google IAM to use this anyway so there is little benefit of doing this vs using the GMail API directly.

It’s probably not that gameable because universities already give aid on a need basis.

A real cynical view would say that top universities benefit more from accepting students from rich families than poor.
Telecommunications industry seems to be particularly toxic, I hear there are in Santa Clara, and in Bangalore too, buildings full of 'Automation engineers'. There are like thousands and thousands of people whose whole job is to plugin in some values in a Jenkins job and pull out values, and mail it to the next person up the chain. And yes most of these people are on H1B, and many times are even given GC's in EB1 by cooking up legal documentation.

In a set up where there is such low/non-existent value going around and nothing much to show for, I'd expect toxic politics for every little thing.

There are quite a few places like this in this industry, and it can be very hard to achieve anything of value both personally and professionally at such places. And its all about identity politics, and cartel behaviour at the end.
