One interesting thing is the US News College Rankings sues a completely system of measurements than the field-specific rankings, e.g. the US News Computer Science Rankings. The latter is based only on "the judgments of deans and senior faculty members of computer science departments at institutions around the country."

I've been obsessed with computer science rankings for a while, and worked with others to compare US News Computer Science rankings with other computer science rankings: https://drafty.cs.brown.edu/csopenrankings/

Some rankings are naturally harder to game, like that your bachelors or doctoral graduates get hired as professors at other research universities. Or that professors at your universities win best paper awards at leading conferences. So I've been looking at whether various rankings are "biased".

There's some clear biases with US News, like it ranks CalTech as 11, but CalTech is listed as rank 39 in the aggregate because it does poorly on faculty publications and best paper awards. Yale CS is another example of a highly ranked department by US News (rank 20), that has an aggregated ranking of 35. Harvard CS does amazing with placement (ranked 6 for their undergraduate and doctoral students becoming professors), but has an aggregate ranking of 23.
At least it was a 32-bit integer, not 64

Interesting! I feel highly attuned to that, but less confident in some other areas that sounds easier for you to evaluate.

Funny how that works.
Given that attitude, your mileage may vary with these suggestions.

I utilize primary research all day every day for my job and my definition of good academic writing is clear, concise writing that enables me to answer the specific questions I am seeking to answers for quickly and in a manner that allows me to confidently cite the work (assuming the relevant information is present within the manuscript).

Truly incredible that it is not recognised that Twitter is part of the problem and not the solution.

May as well flog the little zsh thing I wrote:

https://github.com/ckp95/fwf/

fwf -- "Filter With Feedback". It lets you write sed/awk/jq/grep etc things interactively. You type in a UNIX filter, and on every keystroke it renders the result in a column on the right, which you can compare to the original on the left (watch the video demonstration on the link if that description is confusing). I wrote it to make the feedback loop for text-processing as quick as possible. I use it all the time now. It makes the "activation energy" for writing shell pipelines a lot lower, if that makes sense.

The right assumption is that every syscall can return any defined errno value. In practice this means that you should handle the cases that you have to handle (-EINTR and for write(2) incomplete writes, which are typical reason for “fatal error: Success”), that you can somehow handle (things like retries for -ENOSPC) and log strerror(3) result for anything that you don't expect (whether you shoult then abort(), exit() or continue depends on how critical the failed syscall was).
It just requires a regular login, 2fa or otherwise. Once the session cookies are there, it would presumably continue to behave as normal.

The first time I read Blood Meridian, I didn’t notice the absence of quotation punctuation for some pages. And then my thought was “that’s kinda interesting” and completely forgot about it.

Until, after giving my copy to my brother, he had the same response as you. At the time, twenty five years ago, I was surprised but now I accept everything isn’t for everyone and hence all books are not for all readers.

My brother and I had different reading experiences and developed different tastes. I couldn’t get through the Carl Hiassen paperback I got in exchange. There wasn’t anything I cared about there.

“Properly punctuated” is not a blurb to captivate my attention. YMMV.
Yes and

- You can catch new leaders and senior ICs on their way in the door and make yourself helpful to them, which makes a positive and memorable first impression

- You build relationships that make you more effective in your role

- You accelerate the dissemination of knowledge across silos

- You exercise control over the flow of information to help the organization meet its goals

- You learn how power flows through the organization

- You discover other teams that you may want to work more closely with, or take steps to avoid working with

- You become better able to empathize with other teams because you have a human connection

Your boss must have been traumatized by some salesman.

PPTs are great, when they have been written by someone who knows what to communicate and how to do it, which involves knowing your audience. For boffins, slides that are denser than average but lighter than what they would otherwise have to read, are just fine. For the layman, one better err on the side of simplicity and direct impact.

> PowerPoint is something you do to a customer or to the board, not to your colleagues

That is bullshit borne of insecurity. If one can be persuaded so radically by a presentation, one's convictions are pretty weak to begin with.
One of the most marvelous hobbies.
Hard to use that logic when there are a small monopoly of services out there.
Exactly. You can't just look at one aspect.
Agree with this. Blender has some of the best training material available, especially compared to its competition, because it's free and open source, so anyone can use it and, importantly, anyone can make tutorials for it!

New work? None, I just try to bring open work to a stopping point and document/answer questions for peers who will pick them up.

IMO it’s kind of a dick move to deploy in your notice period. Each deploy is a missed opportunity for knowledge transfer. Better to point out to peers what you would do and help them get up to speed while you are still around.
If they do what you suggest, how will they make enough money to survive? Especially when other distros could just copy their features and give them away for free.

Except that's not how it works for a lot of people.

Lots of people are shy to speak, especially when not in private. Relevancy can be increased by making them weekly, in 15m.
That GPU-based subdivision surfaces being ~10X faster is a welcome improvement! Subdivision surfaces have always been so slow, those are some incredible gains!

> *I stopped using it because I stopped wanting to write 10000 lines for doing simple things. I want to write less code now.

Java 11, with the introduction of lambdas, makes it trivial to express what used to require 10-15+ lines in 1-3 lines.

The syntax can be a little tricky at first, and without an auto-complete IDE it's still damn near impossible to figure out what the correct 1-3 lines should be unless you're really up to date on the streaming collections APIs.

The bottom line is, things are still improving with every release on the developer quality-of-life front. I've been pleasantly surprised! Caveat emptor, all languages have their ideal use-cases and tradeoffs. There is no holy grail (yet).

That point read to me as if they completely overestimated the damage.
I genuinely think Blender is my single favorite piece of software I've ever used, especially the latest few versions. While it's always been a powerful piece of software, the past 3 or 4 major releases (really everything since 2.8 actually) have just been nonstop UX improvement on top of ridiculous amounts of thoughtfully implemented new features.
Agreed with the other comments here. I would love to hear this as an engineering manager. I fear the work becoming stale for my team and push growth opportunities to keep things interesting.
Well, it seems to me that you're missing out on a potential huge number of signups RIGHT NOW because of this friction. You're in the spotlight, with thousands of guys looking at your offering right now.... and you want them to CALL you? Seriously?
Five years ago (depending on your company) you might not have even been using closures. Java has come a long ways since then, and lombok has eliminated most of the boilerplate. Modern Java can be pretty pleasant! Of course, there's a lot of crap code out there, but there's a lot of crap code everywhere.
Could someone elaborate on what potential threat is addressed here for the users? As far as I understand, a hidden service’s main purpose is to protect the privacy of the domain operator (in this case, Twitter).

For a user, however, just the act of connecting through Tor will protect their privacy (to a debatable degree). At the very least, it will circumvent any blocks put in place by their ISP and/or upstream.

What’s the advantage of a hidden service then?
Why should they have any licensing at all? Is that unfair too?

My guess is that governments have interest in making sure services are safe and reliable. Hence licenses. And rules for those licenses.

Russian troops wave Soviet Union flag from tanks inside Ukraine
I struggled so much as a new grad I wanted to give you some specific advice: There are two kinds of employee candidates, red flaggers and green flaggers. By this I mean people look at your resume and either think "wow, what's the catch?" or "hmm okay, maybe there's something good here."

A red flagger would be someone who built a supercomputer out of beach pebbles then proved P=NP on it. The interviewer already knows you're good enough for the job, they're just looking for red flags that would disqualify you. A green flagger would be someone who worked at GenericCorp for 2 years on a Java queue. The interviewer knows you're a programmer, but they need a signal that you'll actually be able to do the job.

Why does this matter? If you're a red flagger, all you need to do in the interview is not make an obvious mistake. They already want to hire you, they just have to do the HR dance first. If you're a green flagger, you have to do everything right in the interview to get the job. They need programmers ASAP, but you still need to prove yourself. Being a green flagger is much harder than a red flagger. Becoming a red flagger is simple: Your interviewer needs to think you are smarter than them. If you pull this off they will always give you the benefit of the doubt. Your job interviewing will be so much easier.

To do this you just need one thing on your resume that they don't know how to do. If your resume has an internship writing React, and a side project using NodeJS, your relative inexperience will make them think "I can code circles around this chump." Switch that side project to a niche area they've never dabbled in, and suddenly they're over their head. "What do they know that I don't? We must hire immediately!"

I accomplished this by doing side projects in machine learning and crypto. For any programmer with some tenacity these are totally doable, but most people I interviewed with hadn't done it themselves so I became a red flagger. It doesn't need to be these subjects, it should be whatever niche computer topic you're most interested in. It doesn't need to be complicated either. If you can demo it, and it works, and you can explain it in a way that teaches the interviewer something, you've made the job of interviewing much easier.
I don’t have any interest in fortnite but I don’t follow why this is bad. These are just skins right? Like no differentiation besides personal aesthetic preference? Couldn’t these be sold with no ambiguity, never ever coming back, and have literally no impact on your desire to buy?

Have you ever felt a desire to buy a shirt because it won’t be available to purchase again?

Is there really a world where they say “this asset is for sale today and in 28 days” and you say “oh good I will want to be it then but not now”?

I don't think you're way off the mark, or being a "grumps" on the subject. Young minds can be heavily influenced which is why many societies regulate experiences that may cause harm.

I'm sure there are children who aren't impacted by EA lootboxes, as I'm sure there are children who are. It's the ones that are I'm concerned about, and the families that will end up dealing with the fallout.

I don't see why it's not possible to gate it behind a proof of age... however it's obvious that there is no incentive for EA to do so.

They added a really nice quality of life change in the node editor! Now you can drag a noodle out from a node into empty space, release, and get the Add Node menu automatically popping up, which is something the community's been wanting for ages. It's how it works in basically every other modern node-based editor, so it's nice to see Blender keeping up.

I’d have upvoted if you just omitted the last word. I’m not sure where the money laundering obviously comes in (I’m sure it’s possible, I just don’t see how it’s particularly applicable here).
Candidates lie quite a bit and the rest of the interviewing nightmare trickles from there. I've had two candidates show up for interviews, who used the title Software Engineer on their resume, who couldn't write any code. That was a shocking discovery at the time and I'm someone who has worked in SRE alongside Operations folks who faked their way into SRE titles.

That said, the state of interviewing is completely unacceptable. The algorithm tests ensure that mostly college attending candidates pass them. Take home exercises are very burdensome for people with kids.

The company LightBulb that did a LaunchHN recently I think gives us the best hope for improving interviewing going forward.
There are few things more exciting about getting a new computer than getting to test how fast Blender runs on it!

Wow. The assumption that content moderation boils down to eliminating profanity from comments is... well "naive" doesn't really cover it. "Willfully ignorant" is closer.

I'm not sure what this company's clients are supposed to do when they find themselves overrun with Nazis, incels, QAnons, trolls, bots, doxers, CSAM, etc. Eliminating profanity doesn't really do much to address the overwhelming majority of abuse prevalent on the contemporary Internet.
